1880 POUNDS
OF BUTTERINE
Sold in Wichita Yesterday to
Hotels and Restaurant.
RACE WITH NEW LAW
Which Goes Into Effect on the
First of Month.

Yesterday 1880 pounds Of colored oleo-
margarine was sold in Wichita by Chas.
schnitzler, who represents Kansas City
house. This means that 81, 469.7o worth of
butterine is to be shipped into this city
for its citizen's use before July l. Hotels,
restaurants and merchants have ordered
a goodly stock for some time to come,
for the time is at hand when the colored
article will DE. as far out of reach as fresh
country butter, yes higher in price. On
July /, the new law goes into effect and
all the butterine factories are endeavoring
to get their stock of the colored stuff off
their hands. The buyers in this city are
taking advantage OF the very reasonable
prices offered by the manufacturers and
laying in a store that viii last far beyond
the time that the law takes effect. Yes
terday was the last day for Wichita buy
ers for the orders cannot be fulfilled and
gotten out of the factory latter than to-
day.
No one in Wichita can be pleased with
this law made by fasteners, for eastern
u
who ate butterine and enjoyed 1t because
he felt that he had the difference in cost
between it and butter TO spend for SONG
other necessity must now put up the
fancy price for the creamery product.
And after all, the one IS no better than
the other. They both come out of a COW
and in the process only are they different.
The butterine or oleomargarine is used
very largely in Wichita in the hotels and
many a man who eats it unconsciously
would rival the man on rough seas if he
was informed that he had eaten common
butterine.
The factories will be taxed ten cents on
the pound for every pound of colored cleo
margarine that is found in their refrigera-
tors after July 1.
Revenue men will be sent around at
this time to go through the store rooms
and search for the article. The oleomar-
garine viii continue to be made, but all
the coloring will be done away with and
the article viii be white. 1t will have its
purposes, but in not resembling butter In
color it will not be used on the table to
the extent that It has been heretofore. 1t
has been thought by some butter makers,
the few not in the trust, that the doing
away with butterine would bring the price
of butter up, but it is doubtful and if it
does this is only making it harder for the
man of moderate means.
Because 1O.350 pounds of this butterine
is coming into Wichita, % housewife need
become worried over the outlook or have
nightmares of prints of butterine holding
awake in her refrigerator for it viii enter
no more homes or peoples stomach than

DEATH CAME WITH THE SONGS END
As the Welsh Choir Won a TrIumph
Its Leader Died.

Its Leader Died.
II is not often that a musical festival
closes so pathetically as did an Els
teddfod at Colwyn Bay, Wales.
Welsh choirs were competing me-
lodiously, as usual and when the time
came for his choir to make its effort,
Henry Hughes, a quarryman, mounted
a chair to lead it. In few moments
he tottered and fell. Ready arms car
ried him into an anteroom, and the
choir, led by e. T. Davies. a clerk,
sang on, continuing their melody amid
a round of admiring cheers.
No other choir eXcelled the company
OF songsters whom Hughes had vainly
attempted to lead, for they won the
prize, and the sounding cheers broke
out again.
lt was these cheers OF triumph that
rang in the ears of the failing con-
ductor as he lay in the anteroom, for
he was dying. Every effort was made
to save him, but in vain; and not the
least sad accompaniment of this pa
thetic incident was the fact that the
dying conductors own son and daugh-
ter were singers in the victorious
choir.
gloom spread over the great audi
ence as the sad news spread. and the
Eisteddfod when the end was reached
closed with deep sorrow.

she thought she wanted, like most
children, she used to cry for it. Even
at the age of five, she must have men,
tally analyzed the manner of produc-
ing tears. On one occasion, when
her German nurses little girl wanted
something that her mother refused
her, Edith said to her:
why don't you cry for it, and you'll
get it quick"
II can't cry unless I'm hurt" said
the other child.
Il can" said Edith, "I'll tell you
how. Breathe quick and feel bad,
then a big lump will come up in your
throat-when you feel that, squeeze
your eyes tight, then wink as fast as
you can, and the tears win come"

mamma that way, ever again." said
Miss Rice to herself, overhearing.

LINES THAT TELL AGE.

BY the time a girl is 90 or "a years
old she begins to scan her mirror
closely in search of the invisible lines
about the eyes which betray her years.
The first danger signals which warn
one that youth is fleeing are the in
clpleHJ crUw'a fSat ar the corners of
the eyes and a delicate network or
lines under the lower lid, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer.
A little later on, the lower lid often
becomes heavy and the lines under it
more pronounced The eye itself seems
more deeply set in the socket. Now
horizontal lines appear distinctly upon
the forhead and vertical ones between
the eyes.
This is the time when woman. dis
tracted at the knowledge of fading
charms, consults a specialists and tries
the massage cure.

HfGnT USE or TALENT.

I II Is not always the woman who
has the most amount OF brains who IS
the most successful. Oftentimes IL Is
the woman who makes the right use
of the ordinary amount OF knowledge
she has who eclipses her more brilliant
sisters, who have not learned the sec
cret of application. The reason why so
many women OF undoubted talent fail
20 secure success is because their ef-
forts either lack the right sort of am
bitlon or they are not properly applied.
We see people every day who are sue
cessful. and yet their characters do
not denote them to possess unusual
intelligence or talent. says a writer in
the Weekly Bouquet. The secret OF
their success is they know how to ap-
ply themselves well and they make the
best Of their ordinary gifts. The wom-
an who possesses agreeableness, tact
and a large amount of common sense
is an Indispensable parsonage. Al
though she cannot sing divinely or
write book, she can charm people
with her simple merits well applied.

According to John Drew, playwriting
is gift. 1t Is gift as different from
that of acting or that of merely writ
ing as possible. "It is not enough to
get your people on and off the stage,
he says, "all actors understand that.
Nor Is 1t enough TO be able TO make
your people talk we'll. A writer Of
plays has to be able to do all that and
at the same time write dialogue that
fits to movement, and words that
sound well spoken as well as read. J
take it that making plays is gift
that one cannot say. I will write a
play and by the very will and desire
succeed in doing It, Dnmatists are
born, not made, and they are muo-
more rare than plays"
