Personal Rights and the Camera Fiend.

1t is easy to forgive the Newport mil
lionaire who kicked into fragments the
camera of a man who has been pursu-
ing the notable men and women of
that resort and getting their pictures
at all times and places. Amateur
photography is a great thing in its
way, but when the enthusiastic camera
ficnd 50 far forgets the decencics US to
annoy persons, whether they be mil
li0naire arstocrats or commoners, it is
in order to bring him up sharp and
hard. Nobody likes to be photo
graphed without his. and especially
without her, consent. 1t is not only
annoying but there are no means of
knowing to what use the stolen picture
may be put People who have kicked
camera fiend will applaud the muscu-
lar Newporter for his literal kicking,
and will hope that the incident will
have a salutary effect upon those who,
when they use the camera, DO not al
ways respect the rights of others.
To photograph a person without his
consent may not be an offense for
which the law gives protection, but it
should be made one. 1t is both an in
direct assault and a form Of larceny,
and if the law does not give protection
to the victims public opinion will vim
dicate them for taking the law into
their own hands, as was done at New
port. The rich, the famous and the
handsome have some rights when they
appear in public. and the camera fiend,

or is seeking TO enrich his private col
lection, should be taught TO respect

The Substitute for the Horse.

1t has been said that sometime there
will come n day when horses will no
longer be used as the motor power of
wheeled vehicles.that they will event
ually become 50 scarce upon the face
of the earth that the few surviving
specimens will of necessity be kept in
tives of the American bison, to protect
them from determination. Ages may
he required to prove the truth of this
statement. but if such a dire state of
things should come to pass, there need
be no uneasiness felt on the part of the
people who had rather ride than go
afoot. for a substitute has appeared
which will-when the horse shall have
ceased to cXist-do his work as easily
and rapidly. and probably as faithfully
as he himself
This substitute is the horseless car
riage. or. to give ii more high sound
ing title. the automobile. the locomo-
bile. or whatever the inventor chooses
to call it, 50 long as he winds up the
name Of his creation with the word

A New Alkinsonian Terror.

| A new reason for worry has been dis
son whose dreams have of late been
haunted by the specter OF Imperial
ism" He has been neglecting the
cause of his brother, Aguinaldo,
long enough to investigate the matter
of the worlds potash supply, and in a
recent magazine article he tells US
that this supply is giving out and the
time is surely coming when mankind
viii perish from the earth, hoarsely
lcrying with its dying breath for potash.
AS is we'll known, potash-is a neces-
sary ingredient in productive soil.
Without potash nothing will grow, and
Professor Atkinson finds that, unlike
other chemicals OF elements of vegeta-
bic matter, potash is not returned by
| the bodies that consume it. Every
time potash salts resume their original
form after the transformation into or
ganic salts there is a loss, and this is
going on constantly, so that sooner or
later, as anyone must see, the last par
ticle of potash will be used up, and
where will man be then? Without the
growth of vegetable matter such a
thing as life will, of course. be impossi-
BILE upon this planet, and without
potash there can be no vegetation.
Thus, as Atkinson figures it out,
man race unless imperialism" or some
other dreadful thing wipes it out be-
fore it is compelled to go hungry.
1t is well that the high priest of i'm
perialism" has called the attention of
the world to this awful danger; other
wise il might never have been known.
Let us consider for moment the i'm
minence of this new Atkinsonian dan
ger. 1t is estimated by scientists that
the potash mines of Saxony from which
the world is now drawing its supply cam
not last more than $500 years longer.
Then men will be forced to develop
some of the vast beds of potash in the
southwestern part of this country,
which are not likely to last more than
two or three million years, at the best
Then new mines will have to be dis
covered or method devised to extract
potash from the seas where there are
limitless quantities of it. Truly the
outlook is appalling. 1t may be even
so soon as a few hundred million years
that man will throw up his hanls and
grant in hungry despair that the great
Atkinson was right. No wonder At
kinson is plunged in gloom. The dan
gers Of imperialism" ana the failure
of the potash supply are equally immi-
nent. and still the people refuse to hide
their faces in the dust when these aw-
full twin terrors are mentioned.

"Ive got lille touch of indigestion /"

digestion and n1,rltion is DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. 1t increases
the activity of the whole digestive and

ties the blood from the poisons resulting
from imperfect digestion, and increases
the secretions of the blood making
