A. Nd. Bayley. Makes His Chicago Visit
Prolonged One.
A. NJ. Bayley, the former foreman OF
the Palace barber shop, is making a
continued visit in Chicago much to the
surprise and inconvenience of many
Kenosha people. Mr.. Bayley was
quite i'll the habit Of going to Chicago
where he was formerly employed, for
the Sunday. and consequently nothing
was thought of it when Monday morn
ing came and he did not appear.
But when Tuesday came and he was
not on hand, the boys began to wonder
about their last weeks pay, which they
will receive of course when Mr.. Bayley
returns. For the time being they are
carrying on business at the old stand
in spite of Mr.. Bayley's absence, and
are waiting for his temperance with
q great deal of interest.

HABITS.
Some Have Them, and others Are Not
without


A man likes some hot drink for
breakfast, and coffee suits his taste
about as we'll as anything. 1t seems
hard that so many should be denied
coffee because it upsets their liver and
disagrees with them in one way and
another; still this condition does exist,
and when man finds it hurts him, he
is generally sensible enough to leave it
out of his bill of fare, for it is quite a
bit pleasanter to feel well all day than
to enjoy a drug two or three minutes
and pay for it in aches and ails or
sickness.
A new breakfast drink has come into
use, difficult to tell from coffee, but
made entirely of grains, and which
never produces any disagreeable re-
suits. It has the clean, pungent flavor
so much enjoyed in coffee, but while
coffee hurts the system, Postum Cereal
Food Coffee goes to work in downright
good earnest to make red blood"
1t is composed only of the grains in
tended by nature for mans subsistence.
These are skillfully blended and pre-
pared in such way as to produce
hot drink the c-simile of rich Mocha
or Java coffee, but fattening and
healthful. Stomach, liver and bowel
troubles disappear when coffee and tea
are left off, and the food drink, Postum
taken in their place
This toothsome drink goes about
three times as far as coffee, and pro-
duces health and comfort where trouble
formerly existed. 1t is made by the
Postum Cereal Co., Linn, of Battle
Creek, Mich. When a man or woman
+" feels mean" day after day or every
few days, it can quite safely be charged
to incorrect habits, and coffee and tea
drinking are the real cause of more
bodily disorder than any one knows. A
habit is hard to get over, but when a
delicious tasting article is offered which
produces health instead of tearing it
down, the change is easy to make
Prominent grocers say it exactly meets
want, and persons who have been
kept from coffee on account of their
health are now having all the enjoy
ment of coffee drinking and getting fat
over it.

compose for the French academy. He
wrote William Tell in 1929, which
marked a new departure in his style.
Though but 81 years old he never
wrote another opera. He never gave
a satisfactory reason for laying down
his operate pen. He returned to Italy,
but returned to Paris, where he lived
a life of luxury and dissipation. He
separated from his wife. After her
death he married young woman who
had nursed him when he was i'll. In
1882 he wrote the Stabat Mater for a
Spanish friend. This was first per-
formed in January, 1912. In fourteen
concerts it brought him 10000 francs.
He was very superstitious and dreaded
Friday, and his fate was to die on a
Friday, on the thirteenth day of No
vember, 1868 His body was at first
entombed in the Church of the NADIA
leine, Paris, but was later removed to
Florence. His manuscripts sold for
10000 francs. In 1889 at Paris a Ros-
SIM home, endowed by the childless
composers will, was opened for invalid
French and Italian musicians.
Though one of the best-natured of
men and great wit, he was strangely
paradoxical, and after he ceased writ
ting in the height of his fame his
friends called him a mystery.

THE BRITISH ADMIRALTY ASKS
FOR ENORMOUS SUMS.

London, March 3.-Mr. Goschen, first
lord of the admiralty, presented the
naval program in the commons yester-
day. In SO doing he said the estim-
ates of the admiralty are not proposed
with any feeling of alarm, although it
was hoped that he might be relieved
from the necessity of dwelling upon it.
The increase in the number of ships
must necessarily be followed by an ex-
penditure in various directions Mr.
Goschen then said the admiralty pro-
posed to increase the navy by 1900
seamen and 500 extra marines. For
guns and ammunition the admiralty
proposed a supplementary estimate Of
600, 900 for the present year aud for
the ensuing financial year the admir-
atty proposed an increase of $780, 900
The admiralty also proposed an in
crease of f2.500,000 for docks, and Mr.
Goschen explained that the proposed
dock works would increase the amount
$500, 600, provided by the last estim-
ates to f14,0000G and the chancellor
of the eXchequer had placed his sur
plus TO be also applied to these works.
Mr.. Goschen then said that between
1889 and 1896, 105 ships and 62 torpe-
do destroyers had been built or were
building. The admiralty now proposed
TO undertake the construction Of five
additional battle-ships, four first-class
cruisers, three secOnd-class cruisers
and tWenty-eight torpedo destroyers.
Dealing with battle-ships, he said that
it was the opinion of the admiralty
that the range of action Of British
ships must not be crippled. The i'll
crease for the coming year would be:
For men, ship-bui. ding, ordnance, new
works and other works, 1922, 900.
Therefore, from 1889 to 1899, the eX-
penditure for new construction and ar
mament totaled f55,O00,000. The gov
eminent proposed that the estimates
this year should amount to 100000.
Mr.. Goschen said that they were es-
Inmates for self-defence based upon
the special conditions of the country
which did not apply to any other coun-
try. They applied to the defence of
Great Britain's scattered possessions,
to the food supply of the British col
onies and to the security of the shores
Of Great Britain. In conclusion Mr..
Goschen said: @Whether Great Britain
is isolated or not, whether in any ire
mendous strain she should bear the
whole burden alone or in general dis
turbances should take her place side
by side with other powers, the British
people with their feet should repre-
sent self-reliance.

7. n. E. AT CHICAGO.
Compelled to Disband on Account of
Faculty Opposition.

Chicago, March 1.-The faculty of the
University of Chicago has at last
crushed out the local chapter of the
sophomore society, Theta NJ Epsilon.
The society is International in it's
character, and many of the leading
Greeks" in the university hold hon.
orary membership. 1t has active chap
tiers in twenty-five colleges. It's en-
trance at the university was marked by
several sensational incidents. The
denizens of the neighborhood awoke
one bright morning to find fences and
walls covered with the letters "T. n.
E." done in green paint. President
Harper ordered an investigation. A
year ago he notified some of the hon
orary members that the society must
go, but not until this winter has an
active campaign been waged Recently
Acting President Judson again notified
an honorary member that he desired
to have assurance that the fraternity
had disbanded or summary action
would be taken. He explained in his
communication that the society at
large has rather shady reputation
and that it had to go. After consid-
cradle parleying the member addressed
consented to communicate with the
members who existed sub rosa. A Sc
cret meeting was held and it was fin
ally decided to give up the charter, as
it would be useless to try to exist I'M
der avowed opposition from the fac
ulty. The disbanded members will ap-
peal to the national organization.

LUCKLESS BABES.

Chicago Inter Ocean:-Three chill
Mo-, Feb. 29.-According to the Pope
Gregory calendar they will be one year
I'D in 1904. They will go to school
before they are weaned, and play in
the mud long after they cast their
first vote. The mother of these chill
dren should be watchful lest her Off
spring marry before they are five years
old. She should exercise great care
over the youngsters in 1912, and from
that on until 1920, as they will be
prone to catch the chicken-poX and
measles during those years. In 1928
she may allow them to play for an
hour or so each day with the neigh
bors' children, and let them fly kites
on the common as carly as 1886. No
canvass could be made Of the city yes
terday but it may be said that on a
rough estimate 100 children were born
in Chicago during the day, who will,
until the age of 80, be compelled 10
yield to the paternal CAD. The boys
will tie tiE cans on dogs tails at the
age of "a, and will have sweethearts
before they are 70. The girls will play
with dolls in their siXtieth year, and
will giggle in church and chew gum at
about the same time. Those who cele-
brated their birthdays yesterday con-
sidered it a novelty They will not be
favored again in that way for eight
years.

as Leo XIII his incumbency has been
marked by many liberal reforms. His
ill-health during the last few years has

sor There has been some hope among
English-speaking Catholics that the
next pope would be an American, but
as the college Of cardinals is COM

choice is very unlikely. Cardinal Ga

for the succession, has an unsavory rep

statement thai Dunraven cabled his
resignation to the New York Yacht

Sir George said the only feeling
among English yachtsmen was one OF
sympathy for Dunraven, who, he con-
tended, had acted throughout as a
gentleman, and said it was open to
grave doubt whether the same could be
said Of those in America who opposed
him.
New York, Feb. 29.-Secretary Cd

yesterday: cit IS now 3 o'3'ock and up
to this moment neither telegram nor

candidate, Robert NJ. La Toilette as
candidate for delegate-at-large to the
national republican convention, and
S. A Harper for state chairman. One
OF the republicans whom Mr.. Dow
called on was Harry Dickey and the
two were closeted for a long time. Mr..
Dickey was a classmate of La Toilette
and it is understood that he agreed to

ton from Racine After Mr. Dow had
lette delegation to the state conven-
been at work some time his move

Stabat Maker. Having been born on
the 10Th of February, his birthday is

days are being held at the Crystal
