Four P1aQues % Americas Game with.
In tho Reach Of All.
Probably at no time In the worlds his
tory has 40 much attention been paid ID
the interior decoration ce homes as at
present. No home, no matter how hum-
bic. b without its handiwork that helps
to beauty the apartments and make the
surroundings more cheerful The taste
Of the American people has kept pace
with the age. and almost every day brings
forth something new in the way Of 4 pic
ture, draping. q piece of furniture or
other form Of mural decoration. One Of
the latest Of these has been given to the
world by the celebrated artist, Muyille,
In series Of four handsome porcelain
game plaques. Not for years has any
thing as handsome in this line been seen.
The subjects represented by these plaques
are American wild ducks, American
pheasants, American quail and English
snipe. They are handsome paintings and
are especially designed for hanging on din
Ing room walls, though their richness and
beauty entities them to a place in the
parlor Of any home. These original
plaques have been purchased at a cost OF
50, 600 BIZ ]. q, Hubinger Bros. Co., man

Starch, and in order to enable their mum.
erous customers to become possessors Of
these handsome works Of art they have
had them reproduced by special process,
IN all the rich colors and beauty OF the
originals They are finished oh heavy
cardboard, pressed and embossed In the
shape Of plaque and trimmed with d
heavy band OF gold. They measure forty
inches in circumference and contain no
reading matter or advertisement what
ever. -.
+ Until Oct. Messrs, ]. G. Hubinger
BROS. Go. propose to distribute these
plaques free to their customers. Every
purchaser OF three ten-cent packages Of
elastic Starch, aatiron brand, manufac-
tured by ]. G. Hnbinger Bros. Co., is en-.
Titled to receive one Of these handsome
plaques free from their grocer. Old and
new customers alike are entitled to the
benefits of this offer. These plaques will
not be sent through the mail, the only
way to obtain them being from your gro
Ger. Every grocery store in the country
has Elastic Starch for sale. 1t is the old
est and best laundry starch ON the market
and is the most perfect cold process starch
ever invented. 1t is the only starch made
BY men who thoroughly understand the
laundry business, and the only starch that
will not injure the finest fabric. It has
been the standard for quarter of a CEN
fury and as an evidence of, how good it is
Twenty-Five million packages were sold
last year. Ask your dealer to show Won
the plaques and tell you about Elastic
Starch. Accept no substitute. Bear in
mind that this offer holds good q short
time only and should BE taken advantage
of without delay. =

Mental Astiernatisih Of Inventors. :

: To illustrate tie kind of lapse. Of reason
ing spHWef that great inventors, are known
/ to suffer from and which Sir Jsasc New
ton was; under the: influence OF, when he
cut one hole in a wall to let a cat pass
through and then a. small hole for the kit
ten to use, an old story in the life of Morse
has been revived Long before he invent
ed the telegraph, Morse was known to the
officers of the patent office ais persistent
applicant for patents When his great IN
venti0h of distance writing" was about
completed, he wanted the Baltimore 4
Ohio Railway company to try it, To get
rid of him, the president of the road turned
him over to- a subordinate. q This official
was struck with the beauty of the sinyeni-
ton: and became SO interested IN it that
he sat up half the night discussing it with
its inventor. AT length Morse confessed
there was only one thing which batfied
him. AS long as the railroad runs lie
said, s'where poles may be erected, It will
be easy sailing, but.Wher we come to the
big bridges, what is to be done then We
can't erect poles across the. stream and
without them the wire would sag; and per-
haps break from it's own weight. Il con-
TESS don't know Whit to do. CANT YOU
suggest way oft Of the difficulty p
why don't YOU fasten the, wires to the
bridge y asked his companion, without a
moments hesitation. " For a moment
then Exclaimed: WIN IN not IT. : IN, aaa.
Why, never Thought Of that It's the
very way The IaymAr's iii, but. the
finishing touch to the work Of the great
inventor, and thus wires came TO be strung
on bridges when crossing large streams. :

France.

That was strange error of our eminent
compatriot-or, let us hope, of the reporter
who misconceived him-"Our heart is not
on that side; it goes out toward France"
Toward France, The close ally and bosom
friend of absolutist Russia; France, domi-
mated by militarism and clericalism:
France, with her Jew batting, her traves-
ties of public justice, the eondemner of
Dreyfus and of lola! But for the name
of it, Caesar or a Napoleon might as
we'll be at the head, where such things
are done. Freemen respect the brilliant
national intellect which seems of late to
have gone SO far astray; they admire
the splendid literature of Frances; they are
thankful for her great though spasmodic
services to liberty IN the past; they have
watched anxiously her efforts to steer be-
tween the rock of Bourbonism and the
whirlpool; Of anarchy; and they sigh to
think that her destiny may be like that of
the. other Latin races-that she may sink
into decadence, the victim of her own pas
sionate errors, rent by ideals and moral in
capacity. Her watchword is Glory, not
Duty. She stands not for humanity, but
for herself alone, chauyinistic to the core
She has only angry jealousy when another
power opens the wilderness or delivers a
nation from oppression; she would seize
these wild lands Gf she COULD in the old
Spanish manner, and hold them by meth-
DDS not wholly dissimilar to those Of SPAIN
Three hundred years ago she was ruled by
