CURRENT COMMENT.

The Houston (Tex) Post (Dem.)
says: Since Chauncey's marriage has
kept him so silent, one could almost
wish it had happened to Tillman."
The Washington Post Qnd) says:
Now, Hobson will be retired. The
President has gone over the heads of
the department officials and ordered an
act of simple justice. The Long Crown
inshield- Sampson crowd have never
forgiven Hobson for his failure to block
the Santiago channel, and for his sub
sequent magazine article in which he
rejoiced in the naval engagement which
his success would have prevented. Mr..
Roosevelt, however, has set aside the
petty conspiracy of resentment. We
thank him for that act"
The Baltimore Sun (Dem.) says:
women are allowed to vote to a GER
tain extent In Kentucky. Recently a
registration was held i'm Lexington to
record the names OF persons male and
female, qualified 10 vote for several
municipal officials. Less than 800 white
women We're registered. II is stated,
while nearly 1000 colored women quali-

AS a general rule, meat once day
is sufficient for all classes Of men, wo-
men and children, and grains, fruit
and vegetables should constitute the
bulk of food eaten.
But many of the most nutritious
foods are difficult of digestion, and it
is of no use to advise brain workers to
eat largely of grains and vegetables
where the digestion is too weak to as
simulate them properly.
1t is always best to get the best re-
suits from our Food that some simple
and harmless digestive should be taken
after meals to assist the relaxed di-
gestive organs, and several years eX-
perience have proven Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets to be a very safe, pleas
ant and effective digestive and a rem
edy which may be taken daily with
the best results.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can hard
ly be called a patent medicine, as they
do not act on the bowels nor any par
ticular organ, but only on the food
eaten. They supply what weak stom-
achs lack, pepsin diastase and by slim
ulating the gastric glands increase the
natural secretion of hydrochloric acid.
People who make daily practice of
taking one or two of Stuart's Dys-
pepsia Tablets after each meal are
sure to have perfect digestion which
means perfect health.
There is no danger of forming an
injurious habit, as the tablets contain
absolutely nothing but natural diges-
tives; cocaine, morphine and similar
drugs have no place in a stomach medi-
cine, and Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
are certainly the best known and most
popular of all stomach remedies.
Ask your druggist for a fifty-cent
package of Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets,
and after q weeks use note the i'm
provement in health, appetite and
nervous energy

There are a number of Hobson ru-
mors in the papers, since his retirement
seems assured. One rumor has IL that
he will accept the presidency of the
University of Alabama, at Tuscaloosa;
another is that he will give his atten-
ton to the cotton business. and an
older story is that he will enter poll
tics. Meanwhile 1t is whispered in
Washington that the naval clique" Is
not sorry to see Hobson go. For some
reason or other he seems to have fallen
under the displeasure of the officers
who pull the wires. One of them is
said to have referred to him recently
as most brilliant young man, but
not cut out to be a naval constructor. D."
Hobson, he said, Is a theorist with no
application for practical work. How
ever. the young Alabamian's fame IL
safe, despite any sneers that may come
from Washington.

AS IL there were not already talk
enough in and about the White House

somebody has presented him with a
highly educated and accomplished par
rot. However, the new pet may be
turned to some account If it's vocabu-

some parrots we have read about, the

The administration, it seems. has
come to the conclusion that the North
ern Securities Company, which was
formed to control all of the transcon-
tinental railroads, is a violation of the
Sherman antitrust law, and the At
torney General has been instructed to
begin proceedings against it. At last
the Republican party has awakened
10 the fact that there are trusts in
this country and that some of them
exist in defiance of law.

1t has been suggested at Washington
that the Danish West Indies, which
have just been acquired by the United
States, be added to and made a part
of the Porto Rico administrative sys-
tenn, and that the new islands be gov
erned from San Juan. That would
make the Porto Rican Legislature a.
rather polyglot body. the Porto Ricans
speaking Spanish, the other islanders
Dutch and the American contingent

BRAIN FOOD
Is of Little Benefit Unless II Is
Digested.

Nearly every one will admit that as
a nation we eat too much meat and
too little of vegetables and the grains.
For business men, Office men and
clerks, and in fact every one engaged
in sedentary or indoor occupations,
grains, milk and vegetables are much
more healthful.
Only men engaged in a severe, out
door manual labor can live on heavy
meat diet and continue in health.

Referring to the climatic and health
conditions of the Philippine islands.
Gov. Taft told the Senate committee
that "the health of the troops there
when engaged in campaigning was
about as good as it would be in the
Southern states" Evidently Gov. Taft
does not know great deal about the
Southern states. He probably mag
ines that their climate is very hot and
humid throughout the summer, and
that troops in the South would be-
come enervated and unfit for duty by
the heat. AS matter of fact the
climatic and health conditions of the
South are quite as good as those OF
the North. II not indeed better. Sun
stroke is rare in the South and rela-
lively common as far north as Bos-
ton. Taking the summer through.

President Gilman, explaining the
scope of the institution to which Mr..
Carnegie has given $1O,O00,OOO, said a
day or two ago that it was not the
idea to acquire real estate or erect
buildings, but to assist research wher-
ever assistance might be needed. He
said: IF a scientist at Yale, Harvard,
Princeton or any other university
reaches point where he is unable to
continue for lack OF funds we shall sup
ply him with the money necessary to
complete his work" Washington will
be merely the headquarters of the in
stitution, where the officers will hold
their meetings.

Did Representative Wheeler really
say, "truculent sycophancy?" "Trucu-
lent" means fierce, savage, ferocious.
Could there by a fierce, savage, fero-
cious sycophant? OF course not. in
the very nature of things, and Mr..
Wheeler did not mean to assert any
such thing. We prefer to think that
the gentleman from Kentucky has
coined a new word, and thereby aided
in the enrichment of the language. The
verb ito truckle" means to bend OBJ
sequiously to the will of another; to
submit; to creep. That is what Mr..
Wheeler had in mind. From the verb,
therefore, he derived his new adjective,
"truckleant." Being a new word. and
sounding so much like the old one with
which they were familiar, the reporters
thought he said "truculent." To be sure
a gentleman from Kentucky may be
permitted to coin new word if there
is not one in the language that will
express mis- meaning.

AFRAID OF sCHLEY.

Senator Timothy e. Ellsworth, presi-
dent of the New Yorks Senate. did a
very foolish thing last Tuesday. Ad-
miral Schley was at the capital of
New York to attend dinner given by
the legislative reporters. 1t was pro-
posed by one of the senators that the
Senate. as a mark of respect to the
admiral, a distinguished naval officer,
should accord him cordial welcome.
Senator Ellsworth declared the Senate
should do no such thing He said:
II am not going to have this Senate
make fool of itself for that man."
He afterwards explained that he acted
as he did because he regarded Admiral
Schley as a dangerous possibility.
1t seems then that there is fear on
the part of the Republicans that Ad-
miral Schley will acquire such polti-
cal prominence that he will be presi-
Dental candidate in 1904. But what
better way could be taken to make
him popular than that adopted by Sem
ator Ellsworth? The more the poll
ticians try to put him down the more
popular he will likely become.
One of the reasons why the people
are standing by him so staunchly is
the feeling that the Navy Department,
or a clique OF that department, inspired
the campaign against him that led to
the court of inquiry. The people be-
ing in possession OF all the facts of the
Santiago naval victory think they are
as capable of judging as to whom the
credit for that victory is due as the
Navy Department.
We do not think Admiral Schley has
any intention of entering politics. He
has said on several occasions that he
hasn't, but such men as Senator
Ellsworth by their idiotic conduct,
may make him factor in the political
situation in spite of himself. 1t is a
wonder how some men get into places
of prominence and responsibility, they
are so lacking in common sense.

Artificial legs are now made so per-
fectly that with the use of one of them
many man who has lost a leg walks
so well that the casual observer could
never tell but that his underpinning
was all natural. 1t would seem that
the art of making artificial legs had
been handed down for many gener-
atoms. But 1t is not so. Peg" legs
are quite old, to be sure, but the joint
ed artificial leg, made in imitation of
the natural limb, was only patented in
1850, by B. D. Douglass of Springfield,
Mass. A few days ago Mr.. Douglass
died, at the age of rs years. He had
accumulated quite a neat fortune from
his invention. Among his clients he
numbered a member of the royal
family of China, whose leg had been
cut off by order of the Emperor for
some transgression of the law.

The Hon. Charles A. Towne, two
years congressman, six weeks a sem
ator and for a short time the nominee
of the Populist party for Vice Presi-
dent, gives the New York papers
something to write about from time
to time. Two stories about him have
appeared in the past few days. He is
now a Wall street broker and is said
to be making money. One of the stories
referred to is that he has lately been
warming up to the Tammany organ
ization and hopes TO secure con-
gressional nomination from that or
ganization to represent one of the New
York districts. The other story is that
he accounted recently for the defeat
of free silver by saying that the Lord
had caused so many new gold fields to
be discovered that there was no need
for any other metal than gold as the
basis of the money system.

We Owe the Hat to Asia.


We owe the hat to Asia, for it was in
that country that the art of felting
wool was first known, and from the
most remote periods the art was car
ried OF by the orientals. In India,
China, Burma and Siam hats are
made of straw, of rattan, of bamboo,
of pith, of the leaf of the Tallport
palm and Of a large variety of grasses.
The Japanese made their hats of pa
per. The modern hat can be traced
back to the petasurs worn by the an
Gent Romans when on a journey, and
hats with brims were also used by the
earlier Greeks.
It was not until after the Roman
conquest that the use of hats began in
England. A "hatte of biever,' about
the middle Of the twelfth century, was
worn by one of the mobiles of the land.
Frafssort describes hats and plumes
which were worn at Edwards court
in 1910, when the Garter order was in
stituted. The merchant in Chaucer's
Canterbury Tales had ION his head
a Flannderish beaver hat" and from
that period onward there is frequent
mention of "felt hattes.'

Origin of stHOOsfer.0

An Indiana mar who was being
tainted about the name Of his state,
"Hoosier," gave this explanation of it:
when the young men on the In
diana side of the Ohio river went to
Louisville, the Kentucky men boosted
over them, calling them new purchase
%greenies,' and claiming themselves to
be a superior race, half horse, half alli-
gator and tipped off with SWAPPING
turtle. These taunts produced fights
in the market house and streets Of
Louisville. On one occasion a stout
bully from Indiana was victor in a
fist fight, and, having heard Colonel
Lehmanowsky lecture on The Wars Of
Europe who always gave martial
prowess to the German hussars in a
fight with the Russian Cossacks, pro-
n%ouncing hussars .hoosiers,' the In
dianian, when the Kentuckian cried
Enough jumped up and said: II am
a hoosier.' And hence the Indianians
were called by that name. This was
Its true origin. / was in the state
when it occurred."-Chicago Chronicle,

An Old legend That Tells Of thu
Origin of the Art.

An Old Legend That Tells of the
Origin of the Art. Fl
Lacemaking is by no means SO old an
industry as most persons suppose.
There is no proof that it existed previ-
GUS to the fifteenth century, and the
oldest known painting in which it APP
pears is a portrait of a lady in the
academy at Venice painted by Cas-
paccio, who died about 1928. The leg
end concerning the origin of the art is
as follows:
A young fisherman Of the Adriatic
was betrothed to a young and beauti-
full girl of one of the isles of the Ia
COON. Industrious as she was beauti-
full, the girl made a new net for her
lover, who took it with him on board
his boat. The first time he cast it into
the sea he dragged therefrom an exqui-
site petrifed wrack grass, which he
fastened to present to his fancee. But,
wa breaking out, the fisherman was
pressed into the service of the Venetian
navy. The poor girl wept at the depar.
ture of her lover and contemplated his
last gift to her. But while absorbed in
following the intricate tracery Of the
wrack grass she began to twist and
plait the threads weighted with small
beads which hung around her net. Lit.
tie by little she wrought an imitation
Of the petrification, and thus was ere,
ated the bobbin lace.
