Big Salaries Rnin Tontles.

A dispatch from Topeka shows al
most conclusively that the failure OF
the Modern Tontie lodge is due almost
entirely to the high salaried officers.
The Topeka telegram says;

tendent of insurance reporting to the
attorney general about the Modern
Tonties, the Wichita fraternal order
for which a receiver has been asked

LET if

SCOTS Emulsion is not a
good medicine for fat folks.
We have never tried giving it
to real fat person. We don't
dare. You see SCOTS Emul-
sion builds new flesh. Fat
people don't want it. Strong
people don't need it.
But if you are thin SCOTS
Emulsion is the medicine for
you. 1t doesn't tire you out.
There is no strain. The work
is all natural and easy. You
just take the medicine and
that's all there is to it.
The next thing you know
you feel better-you eat better
and you weigh more. 1t is
a quiet worker. --sen4=..

Old Soldier Adindped Insane.

Probate Judge Smith and County
Attorney Goshorn went to Moran last
week where they conducted a hear
ing before an insanity jury of the case
of Cyrus Clothier. Mr.. Clothier is one
of the old residents, veteran of the
civil war, and highly esteemed by. all
who knew MIN. The intirmites of age
have of recent years been weakening
his mind and the lamentable result is
that he is wholly irresponsible. He
was adjudged insane and an effort
will be made to have him admitted in

City Finances Retter.

One of the most interesting things
about the meeting of the city council
last week was the report of the city
treasurer. 1t shows that the city is in
far better financial condition and the
council feels now that it can see the
way out. a summary of the treas
urer's report is as follows:
General fund or ...,,..,,.,.........Sl2l 1913

Water WkS Dr.. .... ....S l3,222s5
Light plant. ............ l,l2l5l
X, Il. Bond ..,.......... ..,.. 33002
Balance on hand .........,... 4,l09Gl
The street and sidewalk fund is
large because all bills have been COM
ing out of the general fund. The gen
eral fund has 81, 800 in time warrants
out against it and there is 1000
standing against the water works
machinery. But the unfavorable bal
ance against the city is cut down to
five or six thousand and is being rap
dly wiped out.
At last active work is to be COM
menced cutting down the mountains in
the street along the street railway and
it is to be hoped this good work will
extend to other streets.
There was some talk about sewers
and the securing.of a competent engi-
neer and this step taken, the council
intends to hurry the preparations for
putting in sewers at once.

SAYINGS OF PHILIP D. Akmuuk
of business Which Contain
Good Advice.

Pithy sayings were characteristic
late Philip ID. Armour. Impressed
with their value, his Office associates
recorded many Of them, and the APP
pended ones are few of a number
published exclusively in Success. That
magazine gives them as valuable sug-
gestions to young men from a master
in the art of business management:
Good men are not cheap.
Capital can do nothing withouS
brains to direct it.
An American boy counts one, long
before his time to vote.
Give the young man a chance; this
Is the country of the young.
We can't help the past, but we can
look out for the future.
Hope is pretty poor security to go

minute in this age of aggressiveness.
There is nothing else on earth so
annoying as procrastination in deci-
sions.
be lawyer to have good, hard sense.
An indiscreet man usually lives to
see the folly of his ways; and, il he
doesn't, his children do.
\ man should always be close to
the situation. know what he is doing
and not take anything for granted
There is one element that is worth
its weight in gold. and that is loyalty.
Il will cover "a multitude of weak
nesses.
1t IS an easy matter to handle even
congested controversies where the
spirit of the parties is right and
honest.
The trouble with great many men
IS they don't appreciate their predica-
ment until they get into the quick
sand
When you are stirling to do that
which is right, be courteous and iice

and marry one OF her daughters; any
one will do.
Do you suppose that. with an en-
gine like this, L could afford to put
anything into the boiler that would
make the machinery run wild?
1t Is all right, in some cases. to
bank on a mans pedigree; but in
most men there is something a great
deal deeper than this matter of
genealogy.

ABOUT NEW YORK WOMEN.
As Described by Southern Sister
Who Received a Favorable
Impression.

u was very much impressed with the
women of New York, while there re-
Gently" said a bright little woman who
had just returned from the metropolis,
according 10 the New Orleans Times
Democrat, "and / was impressed with
the fact that they are probably dis
tinctiSe for more than one reason. L
am speaking. too, for the women one
meets on the thOroughfares-sh
girls. society bellies and all. Ike the
way they dress ia New York. l like
the way they walk. Iriike their man
nerisms in public. The New York wom-
an dresses well. She may be shop
girl. but she wears a neat. well-fitting,
graceful costume. She stands well in
her shoes. And, by the way, this is one
thing that impressed me about New
York womennmore than any one thing.
1t may be because the shoe is my
hobby. l like good shoes, sAoes that
set well on the feet, shoes that fit
nicely around the ankle shoes that de-
velop whatever of grace and beauty
there is IN a woman's foot-and. paren-
thetically, there are no Trilby feet
among the women, for every mothers
daughter of them can slip her foot into
Cinderella slippers--but, as was say
ing. | ike shoes that have good, sub
stantial soles and stand well on the
heels. and these are the kind of shoes
the women of New York wear. just
from observation / would judge that
the women of the metropolis are fond
of the best there is in the shoe market.
They all wear shoes that look well and
they are not ashamed TO show them.
They wear the short skirt. which falls
no further than the shoe top. 1t gives
thcm a firmer footing. as It were. and
they walk with more grace. Why. ii is
really a treat to see them stride down
the street. looking neither to the right
nor to the left. but minding their own
little business. They combine mans
independence Of appearance with a
woman's grace, and it is an imposing
spectacle
