Funny writers and stage comedians
make the mistake cf representing coun-
try people as very loud takers" re
marked Colonel Leonard Ainsworth Of
Arkansas. As a matter Of fact, per
sons who are accustomed TO the quiet
and solitude Of rural life speak in very
low tone of voice, while those who live
in the constant din and nerve racking
noises Of the city naturally acquire the
habit of talking loudly. The reason for
the difference is plain When you city
folks meet on the street, you have to
elevate your voices to a high pitch in
order to make yourselves heard. | new
er come to st Louis or visit any other
large city that | don't soon get a sore
throat from evereXerting my voice. OF
course, you who live here are used to
the strain on your voice and don't suffer
from it as | do.
IF you ever heard an Indian talk,
you will realize the force of what l say
l never saw real Indian that spoke
much above a whisper. He illustrates
exactly what I mean The Indian lives
in quiet and solitude His atmosphere
is not filled with noises and tympanum
piercing sounds. Consequently he does
not have to elevate his voice in carrying
Oh conversation. Your city arab the
counterpart of the Indian, talks loud
enough when he comes to Arkansas to
be heard in the next county. st.

CHANGES FOR HEALTH.

Changes for health often bring sick
ness. This is the time of year when peo-
pie are changing from the city to the
sea-shore and mountains, mostly In
search of health and strength. The sud
den change of air, of habit and water,
almost invariably upsets the system at
first and if the vacation cannot be pro-
longed, frequently results in more harm
than good.
We advise that as soon as you arrive
at your new abode, make a direct line
for the drug store and procure bottle
of DR.. Humphreys Specific No. 10, to
keep the stomach right and bottle of
No. for summer complaint With
these two remedies at hand, you will be
benefited by the change from the very
beginning and not lose a single day.
Ask your druggist for n copy of DR..
Humphreys Manual. or send direct to
the Humphreys Medicine Co., Cor.
William & John Sts., New York.
The above Specifics cost % cents each
and can be mailed anywhere.

Marshal 'Ancre was assassinated in
the streets of Vitry April pa, 1917. The
people of France have always been look
ed upon as fairly well civilized at that
time. Yet this is what these civilized
Frenchmen did. They dug up the corpse
of D'Ancre, dragged it through the
streets to the Pont Neuf, where they
hung it up by the feet Then it was
dragged through the streets again to the
Place de Greve. D'Ancre, or what was
left of him, was dismembered and chop
ped to pieces, the crowds fighting fol
morsels of the accommodated Jew, "
as they called him. His entrails were
thrown into the river, his ears were sold
to the best burger, and what was left was
burned in front of the statue Of Henri
". Most horrible of all, his heart was
torn out, cooked and eaten by these hu-
man wolves. The next day the dead
marshal's ashes were offered for sale on
the streets, while his wife was accused
of sorcery. dragged to the bastile and
her head hacked of. -Pittsburg Dis

THE SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.
some Hlpgs HISTORY.

Massachusetts members of congress
upon the same subject. We find this
point in history more fully narrated IN
speech made by Senator Vest of Mis-
souri, in the tariff debate of Saturday
last. Statements are made there which
should be of especial interest to Massa-
chusetts people at this time.
1t appears that in the tariff of 1880,
better known as the Mckinley tariff,
the same attempt was made to take
hides from the free list and put duty
upon them that has been successful now.
1t was successful at that time in the
first instance. When the then Congress
man Mckinley brought the tariff that
bears his name into the house of repre-
sentatives. he accompanied it with re-
port In which he declared that the bill
had placed a duty upon hides, with APP
proval of the act When the bill itself
was carefully scanned, it was found
that there was no such duty there. In
explanation it was disclosed that Mr..
Mckinley had changed his bill after his
report WAS MIllltus Jul " sum- WI
sight had omitted to change the report
TO correspond. This led to a revelation
of some inner proceedings that explained
the inconsistency
The change, it appeared, was brought
about by action in which a Massachu-
setts member Of the house of repre-
sentatives was prominent. The margin
of votes in the house for the Mckinley
tariff then was small, and the story was
TO the effect that this member went to
Mr.. Mckinley, and, in the name Of the
boot and shoe manufacturers, protested
against this duty, and further Informed
him that if be persisted in putting it in
the BIZ he could look for 10 political
support of the bill from Massachusetts.
This was the same as to say that the
Massachusetts members OF the house
had agreed to protect the interests of
this state Their faithful determination
TO do this was successful, and the OBJ
noxious duty was left ont.
They had powerful aid in their action.
AT the same time that this determined
remonstrauce was made, another New
