Her Cynical Views Of Men aud Women
and Their Affairs.

Why is it that you hate a girl who
has hair like yours and yet prettier?
Why is pretty blond so tenderly
atfectionate with homely brunette
when men are around?
Why do the men you like most to
dance with seem to think you do not
care to dance with them2
What makes ugly men almost al
ways so brave? Why does one for
get them less easily than handsome
men?
Why do you tell mothers about
other peoples babies when you know
they are jealous?
When you like a man and he gets
married, why do you always hate his
wife?
Why does the man that you could
forgive never do anything that must
be forgiven?
What makes some men uncom-
Portable when you say you know a
man who drinks and CANDLES?
When you want a man to like YOU.
why do you scoff at his opinion
when you have the same opinion
yourself?

The Argument In. Brief.

Possibly the most effective argu-
ment. and the one most concisely
presented in favor of free Monon-
gahela river, is the shipment of coal
on the present rise. From Pittsburg
and the pools above about 100000
bushels of coal will go to the mark
cts down the river. On the same
rise not less than 100000 bushels
will 90 out OF the Great Kanawha
river.
No objection can be raised to the
shipment of coal from the Kanawha
river on the same rise that carries
Pittsburg coal to market. But what
is objected to by Pittsburg shippers
is the aid that is given by the gov
eminent to make the Kanawha a
free stream, and a competitor OF
Pittsburg coal, when, so far, the
Pittsburg coal producer has not only
had no government help to get his
coal to the buyer, but has been met
by tolls on his shipment before he
could get it to the floods of the Ohio
which were to bear it on its way to
the lower river towns.
One million bushels of coal from
the Great Kanawha is not a very
large item when it is compared with
the quantity that the market of the
lower river is obliged to have an
nually. But the Great Kanawha il
different from the Pittsburg trade
in that it can put its coal out to Gin
cinnati and Louisville on many a
stage of water that is insufficient fol
craft from the head of the Ohio, Sc
operators OF the Kanawha are moi
compelled to hold their stock fol
months and then send it all down al
one time. Hence, 100000 bushels
does not represent what the Kama
wha would send out If it had moi
been able to ship freely heretofore
The government aid which has made
possible these shipments from the
Kanawha is the force and the argu
ment that viii sooner or later free

MILLIONAIRE WILL CONTEST,
Methodist Preacher of West Virgins
Fighting for Share of His
Uuclp's Wealth

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 30-A con-
test was begun today over the SO, 900, :
600 estate of Jacob z. Davis, who
died recently at Philadelphia.
The contestants are Rev. Joseph P.
Wilson, Methodist minister of West
Virginia, and Mrs. Catharine Stead.
The contestants state that their
uncle's true name was not Davis, but
Dediker, and that he changed his
name when he came to California in
1S49, that he might conceal his iden-
tity and thereby escape from an APP
premiership.
His entire estate was left to two
nieces of his wife, Lizzie Muir and
Belle Curtis, and the contestants
claim to be the only blood relations
and heirs of Davis. They allege men,
tai unsoundness and undue influence
as grounds for the contest.

Contagious
Blood Poison,

Mr.. Frank B. Martin, who Is engaged
In the jewelry business at 92o Penn
sylvania Avenue, Washington City,
where he is well and favorably known,
was victim of that worst form of dis
ease--contagious blood poison. He
realized that his life was about to be
blasted, for this terrible disease has
baff1ed the skill of the physicians for
ages, and they have never yet been
able to effect a cure. His mental
despair can better be imagined than
described
In recent letter he says: "About

No Humbug.

Foley's Honey and Tar does not
claim to perform miracles. 1t does
not claim 10 cure all cases Of consump-
ton or asthma, But it does claim to
give comfort and relief in advanced
stages of these diseases and to usually
cure early stages. 1t is certainly
worth trying by those afflicted or
threatened with these dread diseases.

Mrs. Anna NJ. Rudolph Restored to
Sight.

Mrs. Rudolph, of Dubois, Pa, be-
gan to lose her sight five years ago.
For two years she has been unable to
read, and got around poorly, cataract
having blinded both eyes. On Nov.
2nd she went to DR.. Sadler, the eye
and ear specialist, s04 Penn avenue,
Pittsburg, who removed the cataract
in so perfect and successful manner
as to give but the slightest pain by
the operation, and none since. Her
eyes were not bandaged, and she had
perfect freedom of her room and posi-
ton.
DIR. Sadler's skill and success in cat
aract has not been excelled in the
worlds history, he having restored to
sight los out of the last los successive
cases of all ages up to 92 years. When
it is remembered that twenty five
years ago one-half to one-fourth of all
cases operated upon were failures, the
doctors success is phenomenal
