Association of American Advertisers No. 1G9. .Whitehall Bldf. N. T. City Heart to Heart li Talks BfiAMEd A. EDGERTOW BE SIMFIX AND SINCERE. , There Is a tendency in this age to ret away from pretense, hypocrisy, Insincerity and poses. The tendency la from the artificial back to the natural. In speech and writing it means to rot out the hlf alotin less rhetoric and more facta. Don't talk for effect Talk because you have something to say. Be what you are. Say what you mean, not in a way to wound and offend others, but frankly and honestly. Live within your means. To live beyond them deceives nobody for long and in the end spells disaster for yourself. Water seeks its level. Don't pretend to know what you do not know. Don't dogmatize. Dogmatism Is usually the hall mark of ignorance. Be simple. It was Tennyson who said of the Duke of Wellington: And as the greatest only are In his simplicity sublime. Abraham Lincoln schooled himself In youth to speak simply, to express every thought in common words and so bound and define it that a child could understand. The result was the immortal Gettysburg oration. We are discarding the frock coat and with it frock coated language and frock coated manners and methods. We are getting rid of shams. We are coming to know more and to pretend less. Don't pose. Leave that to the dry goods store dummies. Make believes don't go very far with real people, and the world is getting fuller every day of real people. Advertisers are coming to recognize the wisdom of representing their goods xacUy as they afe. In the long run It Is the only policy that pays. It pays just as well with other people as with merchants. The man who is worth while within himself has no need of seeming. There are plenty who know the real from the counterfeit, whether the counterfeit be coin or people. If you are real gold have no fear that you will not be discovered. Only fear the acid test when the discovery Is made. Be honest, simple and sincere. Be your$elf. LfVlNG MILK CARTS. The Goats of Athens and Their Tenders With Their Tin Cups. The bootblacks and newsboys of Athens are numberless and omnipresent, yelling out in shrill tones the latest edition or inviting customers in equally strident tones to have a "shine." Hot chestnut men. with charcoal braziers and stock in trade of a hundred big nuts, doze over their little fires or sell pistachio nuts, sesame seed or pumpkin seeds at the street corners. Much of the merchandise is carried by diminutive gray donkeys or by old women, who are almost lost under their huge loads of oranges or lemons or cauliflowers or brushwood. The goats are a familiar sight of modern as doubtless they were of ancient Athens, and one sees them skipping over the rocks of Mars hill or the Fnyx or picking their way gingerly over the ruins of some ancient temple like chamois in their native wilds. They are all muzzled and attended In flocks of ten or a dozen by a goatherd, who goes armed with three little tin cups, one holding about a pint, another a half pint and another a gill. When be finds a customer he stop? a section of his living milk cart, milks it, hands over the diminutive amount of the lacteal fluid (it certainly Is fresh milkt to the customer and receives his 5 or 10 lepta (1 or 2 cents) iu return.

Finly Gray Flops Back. Congressman Finly Gray, despite his many protestations in the past that he loves the merit system of government like a brother, yesterday yielded to the temptation of patronage, the enticing odor of "pork" and voted for the spoils system against civil service. Fortunately for the sake of good government the effort to throw out of the classified service one hundred thousand postal employes was defeated by a majority large enough to encourage the American people that the civil service is safe for the time being at least. It is embarrassing to know that the author of the attempt to kill the merit system of government was an Indiana man. Representative Cullop, but it is humiliating to learn that the Sixth Indiana district's representative, Mr. Gray, who retained his seat in congress last year because of the popular belief that he was an avocate and supporter of progressive policies, aided and abetted Mr. Cullop in his reactionary project. The one satisfaction Indiana people can obtain from this attempt at assassination of the civil service is the fact that five of the thirteen Indiana congressmen, Barnhardt, Boehne, Korbly, Moss and Morrison, voted against the Cullop amendment. We warn Mr. Gray not to put too much credence m Cullop's assurance that those members of the Indiana delegation who voted for the civil service will never be able to square themselves with their constituents. Mr. Gray may have made a grandstand play for some of his pie hungry Democratic friends in this district, but in the eyes of the big bulk of voters in the district he has made a sorry spectacle of himself.

That Minimum Wage Bill.

A bill providing for a minimum wage for women and children has been introduced in the lower house of the legislature. There is a possibility that this measure will be one of the few progressive ones which will be enacted into a law, but it is also one of the most important. No doubt it will meet with considerable opposition from many sources, for it severely effects the pocketbooks of a large class of employers of women and children and it must be guarded by its friends with zealous care for if they dp not it will either be shot full of jokers or chloroformed in some committee. One of the provisions in the bill is that rulings of the commission which has supervision over wages for women and children, can be appealed to a state circuit court. Would it not be an improvement if appeals from rulings of the commission were made direct to the state supreme court?

Of two bills introduced in the legislature so far to improve the condition of women, the Widow's Pension bill and the Minimum Wage for Women bill, the latter is much to be preferred, because it is a step to improve social conditions without requiring the financial assistance of the state. State pensions for widows recognizes an undesirable social condition and to a great extent makes dependants of a class who could be self supporting if living conditions were improved.

Mrs. Hen in All Her Glory. Those Richmond people who have of late doubted the existence of chickens should pay a visit to the Coliseum, for there on exhibit, are hundreds of the aristocrats of the barnyard. One pen is valued at over $1,000, probably because the three wives of the lordly cock who presides over this poultry mansion and blinks haughtily at the silver cup suspended from the top of the pen, have laid eggs occasionally the past few months. One of the bypaths to prosperity and reduced living expenses is the chicken raising business. Every city dweller who has a few feet of back yard to spare could utilize it in a most excellent way by devoting it to the raising of poultry. That many Richmond people have been impressed with this idea in the past four years is shown by the steady growth of the annual exhibition of the Richmond Poultry and Pet Stock association. That organization is doing able work in the fight against the high cost of living and it is to be congratulated on the large and interesting poultry display now being held under its auspices at the Coliseum.

This is My 55th Birthday ALBERT W. GILCHRIST. Albert W. Gilchrist, who this month concludes his four years' term as governor of Florida, was born January 15, 1858, at Greenwood, S. C. He is a descendant of Col. Joseph Ball, the grandfather of George Washington, and of Col. Edwin Conway, who was the grandfather of President James Madison. The future governor graduated from the Carolina Military Institute and later spent three years as cadet at the United States Military academy. He engaged in civil engineering for a while after leaving West Point inu 1882. Later he gave up the profession to engage in business as a real estate dealer and orange grower. In 1893 he began his public career as a member of the Florida house of representatives. At the beginning of tho conflict with Spain Mr. Gilchrist enlisted as a private in the United States Volunteer Infantry and was mustered out at the close of the war with the rank of captain. In 1909 he was nominated and elected governor of Florida on the Democratic ticket. CONGRATULATIONS TO: Mrs. Ella Flagg Young, superintendent of the public schools of Chicago, 68 years old today.

NO LOOKING BACK IN RICHMOND

NEW EVIDENCE CONSTANTLY BEING PUBLISHED. Since the long succession of Richmond reports the first published in the local press there has been no looking back. Richmond evidence continues to pour in, and better still those whose reports were first published many years ago, verify all they said in a most hearty and unmistakable way. Read the experience of Mrs. J. Morris of 433 H Main street. She says: "We have used Doan's Kidney Pills in our family with success and it is just as much a pleasure to recommend them now as it was some years ago. I suffered from kidney trouble and my back ached. I was restless and fornings felt very tired and nervous. I got my supply of Doan's Kidney Pills from A. G. Luken and Co's. Drug Store and they made me well. Another member of my family was completely relieved by this preparation." For sale by all dtalevs. Price 50 cents.

"Baout the same ez most folks, I cal'late." "Do you call this scar on the face of nature a road?" roared Bunkerton "Not ez I knows on," returned the old man.

HOW THE EARTH DRIED. And Why the Drying Up Process Is Constantly Going Cn. When water Is decomposed by radium or by ultra violet rays It produces hydrogen and peroxide of hydrogen, and It does not form oxygen. Electrolytic decomposition forms oxygen. A German investigator bases a new theory relating to the drying of the earth on the fact that one form of decomposition produces oxygen, while the other form does not. Part of the water vapor emitted by the seas is de composed by the ultra violet rays of the sun. The hydrogen formed rixes toward the high atmospheric strata, and all the water does not return to the surface. Therefore the quantity of water on the face of the globe is always diminishing, and the earth is incessantly, if gradually, drying. To cite one example: On the north side of the Alps occur a continual falling off in the depth of the lakes and a gradual formation of swamps. Two hundred and fifty years ago there were 140 lakes In the cautou of Zurich. Today there are seventy-six. The destruction of the forests and the cultivation of the land partially explain this, but the loss of hydrogen is an Important factor. The hydropen accumulated in the higher atmosphere is diffused in Interstellar space. Harper's Weekly. REPORTED THE WEDDING. The Dramatic Critic Got the Job and Did the Beet He Could. In the absence of the regular society reporter tbe dramatic critic of the Daily Doings was detailed to cover a wedding. "I'll do the best I can," he said, "but I feel sure I shall make a mess of it." This is what he turned in, omitting the preliminary remarks about the 6ize of the house and the delay in beginning the performance: "Mr. Barker, in the role of the bridegroom, acted the part in a stiff yet listless manner. He has a good stage presence, but mars the effect by a total lack of animation and an almost inaudible voice. Miss Perkins, as tho bride, was much more effective. Her costume was bewildering, yet true to life. If one may venture to criticise, her effort to overcome her obvious stage fright was a trifle too evident. She was In good voice, however, and her enunciation was clear and distinct. "It must be pointed out that both Miss Perkins and Mr. Barker were deficient in their lines and had to be prompted almost constantly by the Rev. Henry Harper, who. as the offl elating clergyman, was decidedly the star of the erformance." New York Press.

Some years ago the Spanish cabinet decided to take legal proceedings against certain members of Parliament who were susiected of misusing public money. The opposition resolved at all wtt to prevent this, aud for forty hours on end they kept up a most amazing uproar. They cheered and shouted, and sang litanies in chorus.
