A ST4TESMAN.

This is certainly not the winter of
 Senator David B. FIills discomfort, and
 perhaps it is the spring of his hope
 that he may yet be president of the United States. When the income tax law was in process of formation he was boldly against his party in the matter He said the bill was not a good party or public measure, and he did all he could to prevent his party from passing it. But he found that he couldn't stem Cleveland and the tide-waiters, and all he could do then was to wait for his vindication It has come with a rush. The people approve his attitude toward the law, and the Supreme court is not against it. So he can cheerfully and forcibly say. as he now does: The law ought to be re- pealed at the very next session of com gress, and I shall, on the first day of the session, introduce a bill for that purpose It ought to pass, and be- lieve it will pass. There was never any good reason for the enactment of an Income tax. The general government should let direct taxes alone, and.leave them to the States, and confine its ef- forts to raising the necessary revenues through indirect taxation. That Is the trIe theory of our government,
 As Pudd'nhead Wilson might say, If it is possible to be Democrat and a statesman it is well to be states man.

When he was only thirteen, the young Longfellow began to write verses of his own, some of which were printed in the newspapers. He was only four teen when he passed the entrance ex- aminations of Bowdoin college, where he was to have Hawthorne as a class mate.
 Long before his college course was over he had made up his mind to be- come man of letters. Tn his last year al Bowdoin, being then eighteen, he wrote to his father: 'I most eagerly aspire after future erninenee in lltera- ture; my whole soul burns ardently for it.' But here in America, in 1925, no man could hope to support himself by prose and verse. Fortunately, just then a professorship of modern language was founded in Bowdoin, and the position was offered to Longfellow, with per-

Navajo Superstition.

William Wallace of Durango, Col, re-
 lates the following incident as an exam
 pie of the superstitions which still ob- tain among the Navajos. While trav-
 cling from 8 trading post to another
 part of the territory, he came upon an
 Indian camp on the shores of a lovely
 lake. The Indians knew him and in-
 vited him to remain over night at the camp. It developed later that this
 band had been induced to send some of
 their children to Fort Lewis to school, and this being their last night at home,
 they had employed a prominent Nava- Jos medicine man to come from dis tance and go through performances which would assure the safe journey of the children to Durango and back. Eating is one of the chief features of such ceremonies. and from 6:30 p. nj. until morning everybody was called up- on to eat every two hours. An old gray-haired Navajo was chief, and he and the medicine man, after dining for the seventh time, called the meeting to order in large logan The medicine man then took out his charms, con sisting of little stone horses, deer-h hoofs, mountain-lion claws. feathers, crane bills, and buckskin sacks filled with so- called medicine. He then took some cornmeal and blessed it. Making a smooth place on the sand, he made a horseshoe with the meal, with five crosses attached inside, like charms to 8 necklace. Then a fine Navajo water carrying basket was brought, and soap weed was put 1t. The medicine man then directed 0 young buck to pour water in and make good studs, which he did, removing afterwards the soap weed and placing the bowl-baslet in the centre of the meal design.
 The old chief knelt down and gave his head a thorough washing in the wa ter, while all the Indians chanted When this was finished. he arose and stripped stark naked, and took a bath in the rest of the soaped water then squatted down on blanket to dry. The medicine man then arose and, talk ing handful of the cornmeal, placed some on the old chiefs feet, head face and back, and the charm was complet- ed, and danger to the children was des- troyed. This ceremony did not begin until after ten o'clock, and lasted until after daybreak. k.-Chicago Herald.

 A changeable climate is the most exciting cause of pneumonia. The mild to-day, cold tomorrow, weather is @ prolific breeder of the disease. It is contracted byexposure to wet and inclement weather, from stand ing or sitting with cold feet; by going from hot and over-crowded rooms into the keen night air, and by sitting in draughts.
 The proper way to treat pneumonia is to prevent it's development.
 Have a care that you are sufficiently clad to meet indictment and changeable weather. See that the wet feet and exposure to draughts do not result in cold If cold is contracted check it at once before pneu- monia is developed; for it is well known fact that protracted cough may suddenly develop into pneumonia, with slight addi- tional cold. Don't let the disease make any headway. Fortify the system against it by rich, nutritious, liquid food. This can be accomplished ii no other way So we'll as by the liberal use of Ozonulsion, on ozonized preparation of Cod Liver Oil with Guaiacol, prepared by T. A. Slocun Co.,, New York, and sold by all Druggists Taken early, when the first symptoms oi the cold appear, it cures it promptly and prevents the development of pneumonia It is rich, liquid food, and it is well known fact that strong food is the most formidable foe of pneumonia It keeps the blood well nourished and puts the tissues in such condition that they throw off the cold and thus resist the disease.

 tions" and obtaining orders. The Prin-
 cess Metternich was fresh to Paris, and

 of fashion by patronizing Worth. As
 she went in for a striking style of dress
 which necessitated a constant change,
 she was a most valuable patroness,
 On days on which there were to be
 court dinners or other functions ladies
 who had ordered gowns for them came
 to Worth to be dressed. First come, | first served; but there was a waiting
 room with choice refreshments, for a
 fair customer might have to wait seven | or eight hours. When her turn came she entered the consulting-room. | Worth stood there armed with pair of scissors. Two women stood beside him.
 They undressed the lady behind a screen, for her petticoats were to the
 skirt of the gown what the skeleton IS to the flesh. When her toilet so far was complete the next gown was donned, and she emerged from behind the screen to be passed in review by MT. Worth. He was particular about the cut and plastic points. He criticised aloud, worked here and there with the scissors and pins. The women, acting on his orders, also pinned and piled their needles. Glasses of wine were administered when nerves had run down from long waiting.
 Most of those who waited came with their heads dressed by Auguste, who went to their houses in a handsome private carriage of his own, and re- quired a fee of forty francs. When Worth was satisfied with 0 dress, the wearer might be sure that 1t was as it should be. He had really a strong feel ing of the idiosyncrasies of his different customers, and their dresses suited their dispositions. Nobody better knew how to disguise a defect. He hated lean women, and sent away hundreds because they would not do credit to his art, The Empress corsages fitted her like a Jouvin glove, As he liked to mould the figure, he detested padding. He was despot, and those who sub mitted to his despotism paid heavily for 1t.

ENa1TsH.


 The Methodist brethren who are feel ing that the Conference doesn't distrib- ute ministers in accordance with right principles of distribution may be able to extract little cold comfort from a recent performance of a big man in the English established church. The right to appoint the minister of St. Bo- toqph Church, Aldersgate, London, rests, as some other liyings do, with the dean and chapter of Westminster Abbey, and l 1t has been the custom of the abbey as new incumbents have to be appoint ed, to give to each canon of Westmin- ster in turn the right to nominate some one to fill the vacancy. In the present instance, the turn in the way of ap- pointment falls on Canon Duckworth. St. Botolph Church is in the business part of the city of London, and for a long while was a partially moribund institution. But during the last six years it has had a curate who has taken upon himself the work of building up the church. His late superior, the vicar, did not live in the parish, and apparent ly did not interest himself in it's wei fare, considering, as many other clergy men in England have considered, that he was doing his duty if he drew his .,u,a.,,Ia,, o+irond ,opd 1oar,,,i++ad 1,is e,,I ordinates to perform the work, In this case the curate, whose name is MT. Henrey, has done so well that he has not only built up the church, organized and maintained midday services for business men, but has gained to great degree the affection and respect of his parishioners. These latter, when the living was vacated, sent to Canon Duck worth, asking him if he would not re- ceive a deputation from them to pre- sent the claims of MT. Henrey as vicar. The canon entirely ignoring the request of the parish to even speak to him up- on the subject. nominated friend of his a MT. Gamble, who immediately wrote to MT Henrey that if the dean and chapter confirmed the nomination he should have no need of the further services of MT. Henry as curate. As the parishioners who pay the stipends of the vicar and curate have not had their wishes in the least considered in this matter, they are naturally high ly indignant, and the controversy has been brought to the attention of the | London newspapers and has indirectly | had a bearing in Parliament on the | question of the disestablishment of the | Welsh church, since it has brought into | forcible light the abuses which may | arise under the established order of things.
 We have not noticed any action of a Methodist conference in placing a min ister that is any worse or more disap- pointing than Canon Duckworth's antic appears to be.

 HYPNoTIsM IN KANSAS.

If a recent decision of the Supreme court of Kansas Is taken full advantage of there will be queer doings in that queer State. Last May Thomas Mo Donald shot and killed Thomas Patton near hls home in Winfield, Kansas. When charged with murder he claimed that he had been under the hypnotic influence of Anderson Gray, and he was acquitted. Then Gray was charged with the crime, and though he proved that he had nothing to do with the act ual killing, the evidence that he caused Mcdonald to commit the crime through hypnotic influence was regarded as con- elusive and he was convicted of murder in the first degree. The conviction has now been affirmed by the Supreme court.
 This decision will be very helpful to Kansas criminals and Kansas lawyers, but it will not be of much benefit to the reputation of State whose reputation needs help. But perhaps the Kansas Populists are acting under hypnotic n- fiuence. and it is quite certain that those who took Kansas mortgages so eagerly few years ago were hypno- tized. If they thought the Kansas Su- preme court would help them out of their scrape they would plead hypno- tism in hurry.

An English gentle man writes to the London Daily News, saying that while in Germany he wish ed to have his son baptized Francis, but was prevented by the authorities from doing so on the above-named grounds, He explained that Francis is short for Franciskus, which is in the German calendar. and that Sir Francis Drake and Francis Bacon might be re- garded as belonging to ancient history, But no attention was paid to this plea.
