D. T. Armstrong, Pub.
Motor Manra.
9peea mania seizes those who are
primarily living on their nerves. Add
t this condition the fact that their
untrained and undeveloped muscles
•ad nerve centers are unable to act
In Instant unison, and the cause ol
these fatal accidents is not far to
seek. When the moment arrives for
Instantaneous action the driver Is
helpless, and the powerful car and Its
oocuj.ants are hurled to death. If
you are staying at the seashore and
an acquaintance—a middle-aged busi-
ness man—rents a sailboat and asks
you and your children ta go for a sail,
you carefully consider whether he Is
an experienced sailor. If he had not
had early and constant experience
with boats and sea you do not hesi-
tate to refuse his invitation to go out
and get drowned. Now, if this same
n.an offers to take you out in his 40-
harae power auto you all accept with
alacrity. Consider for a moment, says
W. L. Haward, M. D., In Saturday
Khreniag Post, where the danger most
lies—In a boat where you all have
some chance should she get capsized,
or la the auto going 40 miles an hour
when It turns over? It Is the same
old, worn story. Where knowledge
and experience step In we use Judg-
ment; where a thing is new to us we
have no fear. Like a little child, we
fear not because we know not. Those
blinded to all sense of danger by the
psychic excitement of great speed are
those ignorant of the force of Inertia.
They are untrained In the judging of
speed and distances; they have no
grip upon their nervous system; the
operators at the different brain cen
tera have never gone on duty, and in
a fever of sped Impulses these unfit-
ted men rush on to destruction.
BEST EVER WRITTEN
PRESCRIPTION WHICH ANYONE
CAN EASILY MIX.
Pragmatism.
A new name for some old ways of
thlsklag, pragmatism is to philosophy
what a court of arbitration is to capi-
tal and labor; it attempts to meditate
between arrogant rationalism and
complacent common sense. Essential-
ly Independent, it follows neither the
professional philosopher on his high a
priori road, nor the man In the street
wl*h his cocksure notions of truth;
rather does It strive to tread a path
between the two, a via media from
whlok may be obtained the ideal out-
look of the one and the concrete prac-
ticability of the other. In this role of
mediator, says the Bookman, pragma-
tism exhibits Its adaptability to mod-
ern demands, finding the world sick of
abstractions, and, at the same time un-
inspired by the current scientific be-
liefs, It offers itself as a tonic to tired
minds, a pungent compound which will
restore the jaded appetite for the
speculative life. Here it claims effi-
ciency for the most opposite types of
men—the rationalists, who go by prin-
ciples, the empiricists, who go by
facts—for It seems to possess a re-
markable Insight into the varied
symptoms of each.
Hygiene for the Schools.
As a result of the recent discussion
about the health of the school chil-
dren, the New York board of educa-
tion is contemplating the establish-
ment of a department of school hy-
giene. It will be the duty of this de-
partment to act in an advisory capac
Ity oa all matters relating to the
health of the pupil and to recommend
safeguards for the protection of his
physical welfare. Realizing that it is
equally Important to conserve the
health of the child as to plant the
seeds of knowledge In Its brain, most
of the school commissioners are sup-
porting tie scheme. Although it will
probably cost at least $30,000 to put
the propesa.1 into operation, says the
8pringfield (Mass.) Republican, these
commissieners believe that the money
would be spent in an excellent cause
atid that this expenditure would be
generally approved by the taxpayers.

Said to Promptly Overcome Kidney
and Bladder Afflictions—Shake
Simple Ingredients Well
in Bottle.
Mix the following by shaking well
In a bottle, and take in teaspoor.ful
doses after meals and at bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half
ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce.
Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces. A prominent phy3ici£a Is the
authority that these simple, harmless
Ingredients can be obtained at nom-
inal cost from any druggist even in
the smaller towns.
The mixture is said to cleanse and
strengthen the clogged and inactive
Kidneys, overcoming Backache, Blad-
der weakness and Urinary trouble of
all kinds, if taken before the stage of
Bright's disease.
Those who have tried this say It pos-
itively overcomes pain in the back,
clears the urine of sediment and regu-
lates urination, especially at night,
curing even the worst forms of blad-
der weakness.
Every man or woman here who feels
that t*ie kidneys are not strong or act-
ing in a healthy manner should mix
this prescription at home and give it
a trial, as it is said to do wonders for
many persons.
The Scranton (Pa.) Times was first
to print thi3 remarkable prescription,
in October, of 1906, since when all the
leading newspapers of New York, Bos-
ton. Philadelphia, Pittsburg and other
cities have made many announcements
of it to their readers.
Grieg as a Schoolboy.
Grieg was nut a pattern schoolboy.
In a description of his days at school
he wrote: "Knowing that by arriving
late I would not be allowed to enter
the class until the end of the first
lesson, I used, on wet mornings, to
stand under a dripping roof, until I was
soaked to the skin. The master then
sent me home to change my clothes,
but the distance being long this was
equ'valent to giving me a dispensa-
tion! You may guess that I played
this prank pretty often, but when at
last I carried it so far as to come one
day wet through, though It had hardly
rained at all, they became suspicious,
and kept a lookout. One fine day I
was caught, and made ar. intimate ac-
quaintance with the birch!"
Liquor She Floated In.
On their arrival in New Zealand,
according to London Tit-Bits, a party
of English people drank the health of
the vessel which had brought them
safely to their destination. One of the
gentlemen who was asked to join In
this ceremony replied: 'No, I am a
teetotaller; but I'll willingly drink suc-
cess to the ship in the liquor she
floats in." A friend disappeared and
returned with a glass of water. After
a complimentary apostrophe to the
ship, the recipient tossed the water
off at once, but Immediately splut-
tered: "Ugh—ah—oh—this Is—oh—
what on earth Is this?" "That?" said
his friend. "Why, you've drunk success
to our noble ship In the identical
liquor she floats In,"
Arizona and New Mexico, having de
elded by popular vote that they dirt I
not cart to be united in one state, will
remain territories for a while longer
The president has announced that be
will not urge their union upon con
gress. He thinks the wishes of the
people should be respected. If Irriga
tion does for these territories all that |
Is expected, it will not be many years
before they will become so populou-
and prosperous that their demand to
be made independent states will be
met
The professional pie biter occapa
Hoc will soon be gone. With the riS-
iu pastry he will be compelled to re-
trench. Luckily, however, doughnuts
remain at the same old price, and the
New Ecglaud r can afford to h «>
them with bis matutinal coffee.
Terms That Seem Strange.
There are many puzzling differences
between Scottish and English law
terms. For instance, bankruptcy Is
in Scotland "an act of sequestration,"
a solicitor is either a "writer" or a
"law agent," the argument In a ease
is the "debate." and assizes Is the
Jury, a wrongdoer is a "delinquent." an
Idiot—in Scottish law—is "a fatuous
person," and a burglary is (with true
Scottish caution), "housebreaking
with an aggravation." Finally, an an-
thor is. In Scotland, not a person who
writes, but the vender or seller of real
property, from whom the title to it
is derived.
Mutilate Art Treasures.
Authorities who have in charge
some of England's ancient treasures
try to discourage the habit of carving
initials on these relics. A fine of $!•">
was recently imposed on a man who
had chipped his name in letters six
inches high on one of the stones in the
"Druids' Circle" near Keswick. Close
to the giant stone globe at Swana?e
a special slab is provided for the
harmless reception of the names of all
who are addicted to this self-advertise-
ment. On popular Alpine summits
names are left on cards In emptied
wine bottles.
Will Net Supply Pic;s.
Bacon curers are usually among the
most prosperous firms in Belfast, but
they have had to warn the farmers
throughout the north not to kill any
more pigs until the strikes are settled,
for it is impossible to handle the car
casses. Business has thus been divert
ed to other Irish bacon-curing centers,
although the majority of farmers have
simply respited their pigs and are
n^ikir.g no attempt to supply the mar-
ket. Danish bacon factories will thus
profit.—London Standard.

—Stream of Gold Must
Flow This Way.
Chicago, Oct. 30.—'ine financial con
dition throughout the west was Tues
day satisfactory in general to banks
and to the majority of business Inter
ests. la all the money centers Tues
day through the check and certificate
plan, l«ie banks were holding as close-
ly as possible to their issues of cur
reucy. The banks in Kansas reported
themselves as in a particularly strong
situation, many of thrm having full}
50 per cent In excess of the ordinary
legal reserve.
In Oregon, Gov. Chamberlain had la
sued a proclamation making the nexi
five days legal holidays In order to
prevent a currency famine. All of the
banks In Portland from whence this
news came were absolutely sound, and
there was no run or sign of a run upon
any of them.
The banks In Spokane have decided
to take action similar to that of Chi
cago and Ne Y rk b^nki in order to
protect their cash reserves. All fl
nanclal institutions there are reported
to be In excellent condition and con
sidered It prvdent to adopt the plan
which has been put in force in othei
cities.
At Kansas City the Wyandotte State
bank with deposits of (500,000 was ab-
sorbed by the Commercial National
bank. The institution was entirely
solvent.
The Chicago banks commenced their
second day's business under the check
system, creatly encouraged by the
manner In which the new method was
received by their depositors Monday
Out of 40u,COO savings depositors In
the city only 1,500 made application
for the withdrawal of their accounts,
or gave notice of a Jeslre to withdraw
The clearing houje issued to its mem-
bers, $8,000,000 In certificates. If the
debit balances which had to be settled
with the certificates were far smaller
than usual, approximating barel}
$1,500,0,0.
Topeka, Kan., Oct. 30.—Banks In
nearly all the larger towns in Kansas
have put into effect rules limiting the
amount depositors may draw out.
These amounts vary from $5 up. Re-
ports received here indicate that
there is no excitement over the situ-
ation any place In the state. A slight
uneasiness is felt by the banks in the
southern part of the state near Okla-
homa, owing to the six-day holiday
there and a fear that unusual de-
mands will be made on them to sup-
ply Oklahoma wlfh currency. A limit-
ed number of bankers are asking that
a holiday be declared in Kansas but
there Is no general talk of such action.
New York, Oct. 30.—The enormous
Influence which American products
are exerting In building up a credit
balance abroad has been the most
signal development of the financial
situation Tuesday. Reports from all
quarters show that the great Ameri-
can staples—wheat, cotton, copper, to
bacco, oil, meats—are on their way
to Europe, this being the season of
the year when American products are
marketed abroad. The Immediate ef-
fect of these shipments is to give the
United States credit abroad which can
be speedily converted into cash. These
natural resources of the country prom-
ise to exert even greater Influence
than the sale of American securities
abroad. The latter have to some ex-
tent suffered discredit under recent
pressure, but the intrinsic value of
American staples used abroad, and
their colossal aggregate at this period
of the year, is beyong the reach of
financial distrust
Datton's Parole Extendsd.
Topeka. Kan., Nov. 2.—Gov. Hoch'1
rrivate sp.Trtary announced Friday
night that the four months' parole of
Emmet Dalton had b°en extended for
six days. Dalton, who was sent up
for life for his part in the Coffeyvllle
bank robbery, returned to the prison
Thursday expecting to resume life as
a convict, after a respite long enough
to have an operation on bis right arm,
which was Injured during the bank
raid and which never properly healed.
Gov. Hoch's action in extending the
parole is taken to mean that Daltoi
will get a pardon.
GEORGE KEPT HIM BUSY.
Matrimonial Engagement* Seemed Al*
ways in Order.
A well-known Virginia clergyman,
onetime president of William and
Mary college, was married three tlme
and (>o each occasion the ceremony
was performed by his brother,^an even
more renowned bishop. When the first
marriage took place, the bishop had
to refuse a tempting invitation from
an old friend because—so the letter
ran—"I am going up to Williamsburg
on that date to marry my brother
George."
The game friend happened to be
on the train with him, years after-
ward, when he was traveling to the
second ceremony. "I am going to mar-
ry my brother George, the bishop
explained, benignly, after the business
of greeting was over. Again many
years passed, and the same Journey
was taken once more for the same
purpose. By a strange co-Incidence,
the Identical friend ran into the bish-
op as they hurried through the depot
to their respective trains. "Where go-
ing bishop?" the former sang out as
they grasped hands and dashed by
each other.
"I am going where I am always go-
ing," the answer came back, ponder-
ously, "to marry my brother Georgel"
—Harper's Weekly.
She Did Not Fear Death.
An old lady on her seventy-third
birthday once said, "I do not mind
getting old, anjl I do not {ear .death,
but I live in 'constant fear of par-
alysis."
"For some time I have been wanting
to tell you of the great good your
wonderful Sloan's Liniment is doing
here," writes Mr. James F. Abernethy,
of Rutherford College, N. C. "In fact,
all your remedies are doing noble
work, but your Liniment beats all. In
my eight years' experience with med-
icine I find none to go ahead of It,
having tried it In very many cases. I
know of one young man, a brick-ma-
son, who suffered from a partial, yes,
almost complete, paralysis of one arm.
I got him to use your Linfment, and
now he can do as much work as ever,
and he sings your praise every day.
I get all to use it I possibly can and
know there is great virtue in it. I
have helped the sale of your noble
remedies about here greatly, and ex-
pect to cause many more to buy them,
as I knew they can't beCbeat."
Slight Misunderstanding.
They had been engaged Just seven-
teen minutes by the clock, yet for
the last three-seventeenth of that pe-
riod there had been a proud, scornful
look upon her fair face that was cal-
culated to wither the orange blos-
soms.
"I can't imagine, dear," he said,
sadly, "what has come over you ao
suddenly. I simply asked if you were
romantic, when—"
"Oh, George, forgive me!" she ex-
claimed, with a convulsive sob, as she
threw her arms about his neck, "I
thought you asked me if I was rheu-
matic."
Taken At His Word.
Master Walter, aged 5, had eaten
the soft portions of his toast at break-
fast, and piled the crust on his plate.
"When I was a little boy," remarked
his father, who sat opposite him, "I
always ate the crusts of my toast"
"Did you like them?" Inquired his
offspring, cheerfully.
"Yes," replied the parent
"You may have these," said Mas-
ter Walter, pushing his plate across
the table.—Harpers' Weekly.
The Duty of the Hour.
"How were you impressed by our
distinguished visitors' speech?" asked
one prominent citizen.
"I hadn't thought about forming Im-
pressions," replied the other. "As I
understand such an occasion, we were
not there to criticise, but to give three
cheers and to sing 'The Star-Spangled
Banner.""

WILD TRIBE OF POETS.
Picturesque People That Are Found In
the Philippines.
Among the wild tribes to be found
in the Philippines are the Bogobos,
the most picturesque people In the
tropics. Their origin is unknown,
and all sorts of opinions have been
expressed concerning tliem. One tale
told of them is that their first ances-
tors were all poets and musicians,
and that the dislike for the practical
which is always noticeable among
them has come down through the gen-
erations.
Those that have taught among the
Bogobos say that given a song or
a poem to learn and they will study
and dream over it for hours, but give
the Bogobo a problem In arithmetic
and he immediately becomes ill and
wants to go home.
Living at Santa Cruz, In the Davao
district, is Miss Benedict, a Chicago
university woman, who is collecting
everything peculiar to the Bogobo.
It has been found that the bead-
work done by them is quite like that
of the American Indian, but there Is
no other likeness in the races be-
yond that.
Time Sometimes Flies So.
"Mabel," asked the dear girl's moth-
er, "what time did that young man
leave last night?"
"Why," replied Mabel, "I believe It
was nearly 11 o'clock."
"What? I am sure it was later than
that," said the mother.
"How strange!" remarked Mabel,
dreamily. "We both thought it could-
n't possibly be that late."—The Catho-
lic Standard and Times.

Signs of Long Life.
"Bacon took a deep Interest In lon-
gevity and its earmarks," said a physi-
cian, "and Bacon's signs of long life
and of short life are as true to-day
as they ever were.
"You won't live long, Bacon point
ed out. If you have soft, fine hair, a
fine skin, quick growth, large head,
early corpulence, short neck, small
mouth, brittle and separated teeth and
fat ears.
"Your life, barring accidents, will be
very lengthy if you have slow growth,
coarse hair, a rough skin, deep wrin-
kles in the forehead, firm flesh, a
large mouth, wide nostrils, strong
teeth set close together, and a hard,
gristly ear."—Minneapolis Journal.
Sheer white goods, r«i fact, any fine
wash goods when new, owe much of
their attractiveness to the way they
are laundered, this being done in a
manner to enhance their textile beau-
ty. Home laundering would be equal-
ly satisfactory if proper attention was
given to starching, the first essential
being good Starch, which has sufficient
strength to stiffen, without thickening
the goods. Try Defiance Starch and
you will be pleasantly surprised at the
improved appearance of your work.
No Decoration Required.
It was Mr. Hobart's first experience
with waffles, and he liked the taste of
them. When he had been served
twice, he called the waiter to him and
spoke confidentially.
"I'm from Pokeville," he said, "and
we're plain folks there; don't care
much for style, but we know good
food when we get it. I want another
plateful o' those cakes, but you tell
the cook she needn't stop to put that
fancy printing cn 'em; just send 'em
along plain."—Youth's Companion.

A Woman Thus Speaks of Postum.
We usually consider our best friends
those who treat us best.
Some persons think coffee a real
friend, but watch it carefully awhile
and observe that it is one of the
meanest of all enemies for it stabs
one while professing friendship.
Coffee contains a poisonous drug—
caffeine—which injures the delicate
nervous system and frequently sets up
disease In one or more organs of the
Dody. If its use Is persisted in.
"I had heart palpitation and nerr-
ousness for four years and the doctor
told me the trouble was caused by
coffee. He advised me to leave It off,
but I thought I could not," writes a
Wis. lady.
"On the advice of a friend I tried
Postum Food Coffee and it ao satis-
fied me that I did not care for coffee
after a few days' trial of Postum.
"As weeks went by and I continued
to use Postum my weight Increased
from 98 to 118 pounds, and the heart
trouble left me. I have used It a year
now, and am stronger than I ever
was. I can bustle up stairs without
any heart palpitation, and 1 am cured
of nervousnes*.
"My children are very fond of Post-
um and It agrees with them. My sis-
ter liked it when she drank it at my
boose, but not when she made it at
her own home. Now «be has learned
•o make it right boil It according to
?st friend—Po^nm."
