Recent athletic records show that our
young men are surprising their prede-

performance. It has been demonstrated,
moreover, that the average American

'That case in Maine recalls an Incl
dent in my own experience" said the
lawyer who profits largely upon the
matrimonial troubles Of others. "There
was a rich widow living in the town
where I began practice and after her
weeds were discarded. she was given
over to the lighter ways of society She
was especially prone to Irritation at her
favorlte summer resort and her engage
ments there were held as lightly as those
OF the veriest summer girl. Her return
home from a summer Of unusual bril-.
lance was foil lowed in a short time by q
respectable looking gentleman Of 80 who
showed his business qualities by walk
ing into my Office and putting down q
handsome retainer before talking bust
ness. -. :.

directness, 4 want you to begin a $50,
900 suit against this wealthy widow.
She gave me an unqualified promise OF
marriage and now refuses to make il
good. Men have hearts to break and
pride to humiliate, just as women have,
and propose to strike a blow for my
sex.'

Yes, in case you so advise, but not
for less than half the sum named and 8
written apology from her. If it would
help any in the matter of settlement
out of court, have the aft1davits Of hall

over from time to "time.'
1.-THE widow stormed and fumed and
then capitulated. She couldn't face the
prospect Of having her foolish flirtatione
blazoned before the public. After she
had welded again and gone abroad my
client made this admission to me: =

had she proposed to settle by marrying

her forgetting just whom she did prom.

Actions Speak for ThemseIves--Ee
Was willing to Read Her Mind.
For many years the young woman
had called upon Ulysses. She had
brought him numberless packages Of
choice cigarettes, as we'll as divers
specimens of the most expensive genus
cigar, says the st. Louis Post-Dispatch.
She had repeatedly purchased tickets
for various celebrated prize fights and
after escorting him thither would see
to it that he had plenty of lemon cream
puffs to MUNICH upon during the inter-
walls of smuggling. Many and many an
evening had she assisted him in increas-
ing the numerals upon his poor hard
working mammals coal and gas bills,
and she had seen four several sets of
new springs added to the parlor sofa.
But hitherto she had not stood up like
n-er-woman and boldly declared her
love for him and requested to be al
lowed to pay all his expenses in the flu
ture in consideration of his DOMINIC her
last name. ~
But upon this special evening in
question Ulysses had her dead to rights.
1t may have been the witching golf cos
tune in old gold and baby blue that he
wore or the shy grace with which he
placed his tiny palm in hers. However,
be this as it may, she could no longer
restrain herself, but impulsively threw
her arms about his frail, shrinking fig
ure and drew him tenderly toward her.
AS her lips rose from his she lovingly
murmured: "This kiss tells you my
secret"
And Ulysses, as he furtively removed
some cut plug from his mouth, found
an opportunity to observe: "Would
you - neutrality-suspicious.

The sultan's heir is not his eldest son,
by his eldest brother. The eldest male
succeeds. Such is the law of Islam, and
the fruitful source Of dynasty murders
in almost every reign since the Turks
became power, says the London Echo.
The sultan has four brothers; not one,
only, as was lately alleged. This eldest
brother is Rechad Effendi; that is to
say, he is the eldest after ex-Sultan
Murad ", who, being insane, is not
counted. The third brother is Waredin,
and the fourth SULLIVAN. The sultan's
eldest son, Prince Selim, has no earthly
chance of succeeding his father. He
has too many uncles and unclas' sons
for that. But Prince Selim is lucky, If
he knows it, for he is not "dar Gcious."
He lives life of freedom, whereas the
heir is, by the custom of the Ottomans.

In Answer to DIR. H. o. Dodge.

Editor Camera
Iwould like to say in answer to DR.. H.
O. Dodge's remark that the board had
found it necessary to adopt certain
manual for the administration of the city
schools, that that is all right and l do not
think anyone has anything to say against
it; but when the school board try to get
up manual to rule the parents, and die
tate when they can say their children
may stay out of school or not, then it is
time for the parents to take the matter
in hand and stand up for their own rights.
Is this free country or not? He says
penalty is fixed for the violation of these
rules. Absences unexcused or insufic-
iently excused by the parents are subject
to these penalties. He does not say in
the paper to the people what the board
calls sufficient excuse, but at the meet.
ing of the board last Thursday night all
of the board but Neil Mckenzie held out
that the parents have no right to keep
their own children out of school unless
the children are sick or the weather is
bad and the child would be in danger of
taking cold; or that the parent was over
worked and had to keep them out to
work.
Our country is coming to fine state
of affairs when parents have to 20 to the
board to see if they can keep their own
child out of school when they, themselves,
deem it necessary. Oneo the boys who
was suspended was kept out of school to
do some work for his mother, that she
could not do and had no one else to do
it for her; and still DR.. Dodge will come
out and say through the press that the ex-
cuses in all the cases was deemed in
sufficient. The doctor says one reason
gwen by one of the mothers, for permit
ting her son to absent himself from
school, was that she considered the races
as much of an education as the school,
but was present at that meeting of the

such statement.
1t was spoken of at the meeting that
the children would be expelled if they
remained out Of school to attend the
Mountain and Plains festival that comes
off next month, and one mother said she
thought that what child would see al
the festival would be of as much benefit
to child during life as it would learn
at school during that day. expect il
makes the board indignant to have any.
one interfere with their school rules, and
me thinks it makes the parents indignan,
to have the school board interfere with
their rules over their own children.
Parents have rights as well as the

have them. | believe IN justice IN al
