IMPORTANT POLITICAL CRISIS.

Alteration is directed to the call FOR
republican cuucuses and county con-
vcntiou to be held respectively, July
Sth and nth. There never was a
convention in this state in which the
people had more at stake than the
one TO be held az Madison July 10TH,
and the preceding caucuses afford
the people their only chance of eN-
preston IN that important conVeh-
ton. Therefore, it behooves repub-
leans to attend the caucuses and
cast their ballots understandings
The issue Is not merely whether
Robt, Nj. Toilette or some other
citizen shall be nominated for gov
ernor. If it We're but question OF
individuals, who shall fill the Offices
and enjoy the honors and emoiu-
ments for the next two years, it were
matter for little public concern. But
when the result means the establish
meut or notification of government

every citizen for generations to come

Milwaukee News: There is more
"good politics" in one speech from a
leader like Mr.. LaFollette, in which
the voters ARE addressed directly
and issues discussed without equiv
ocation, than in all the underground
work and political manipulations eft
the wire-pullers and "mutualizers'
put together, LaFollette's strength
has always rested with his confidence
in the people, and whatever weakness
his administration has developed has
been due to the "mutualzing" infiu-
ences that have surrounded it.

PUBLIC OFFICIALS IN POLITICS.

PUBLIC OFFICIALS IN POLITICS.
The past week our stalwart ex-
changes have been loaded mostly
with statements of amounts expend-
ed on state game wardens, who, it is
said, are devoting more time work
ing for La Follette's denomination
than for the protection Of game.
They fail to tell, however, that the
cost of game wardens is not materi-
ally different now from what it was
under Governor Scofield, to whose
administration these same papers
are wont to "point with pride" And
more dishonesty still they fail to in
form their readers that under SEQ
field the cost of game wardens was
taken from the general fund of the
state, to which all tax payers con-
tributed, while under LaFollette the
hunting license money, to which the
general tax payer contributes no.
thing, forms fund from which the
game wardens are paid, and the to-
tai expended cannot exceed the re-
ceipts to that fund.
Official reports show that in the
last year of Scofield's administration
there was paid from the general fund
of the state, for game wardens and
deputies. the sum of S4l,SO643; that
in the first year or LaFollette's term
there was expended for tie same
purpose $50, 74629. Unofficially it is
stated that from October |, 1901, to
June |. 1902, the amount paid to game
warden and deputies aggregate $40.-
6l99O; that the amount received for
hunting licenses, and available for
wardens' salaries and expenses, is
500, 1922, leaving still to the credit
of the furd balance of Sl4,56022.
Presumably the game warden and
deputies are friends of the Governor,
and take active part in his behalf,
just as postmasters and other federal
officials do for the congressman and
senators to whom they owe their APP
pointments, which, according to po-
litical ethics of the day, is expected.
Condemnation of political activity on
the part of deputy game wardens by
such patriots as. Collector Monahan
and Postmaster Martin of Darling
ton must strike the people of Lafay-
cite county as unbecoming, In their
paper of last week these high sala-
ried federal officials make great
blow about the deputy game warden
for that county having received in
five months for salary and expenses
S6S267, and during the time he has,
they say, devoted much time to poll
tics. During the same five months
these editors have received in sala-
ries from the government not less
than $500, or four times the amount
paid to the deputy game warden, and
neither Of the editors would like to
be credited with less active and eff
fective service against LaFollette
than the deputy game warden is
charged with having given to the
governor and his cause.

the definition of sore in dictionary
will show you, and an ointment that
would be good for sore teats arising
from one cause Is not necessarily good
for all. The term is perhaps most fire.
quently applied to chronic erythelna,
disease of the skin of the teats in
which there are chaps or cracks. 1t
may occur under variety of circum-
stances but the trouble is mainly con-
fined to newly calved animals. In
cows with very delicate skins this dis
order is very liable to develop and is
difficult to cure owing to the necessity
for regular milking. Sometimes imper-
feet removal of the milk on account OF
the soreness Of the teats gives rise to
worse trouble in the shape of NAM
mitis and loss of one or more quarters.
Wet milking and leaving the teats wet
in cold weather is n fertile cause OF
soreness. The proper thing to do is TO
treat each case on its merits, but per-
haps the most useful dressing to keep
on hand for general purposes Is cam
phor and elder ointment. Any chemist
will supply you with such compound,
or it may be made by mixing half an
ounce of finely powdered camphor with
four ounces of elder ointment. Anoth-
er useful dressing, especially when
flies are troublesome, is glycerin and
carbolic acid. In many cases it is nee

Lord SaIiSbury's Wish

Good Words prints little story of
the early school days of Lord Salisbury,
when he was Lord Robert Cecil, which
shows how soon in his life his conspic-
uOus disregard for dress began.
When he was about years old he
came into the nursery one afternoon on
his return from school, which was held
at the old rectory outside Hatfield and
dumped his books into corner.
80 Betty" he said to his old nurse,
81 wish 1 was a cat!'
la, Lord Robert" Betty replied,
show can you wish yourself a beast?"
"Oh," he replied with a deep sigh,
"when 1 think of the many times I
must dress and undress before l die,
l wish my clothes grew on my back!"
Doubtless many small boys have
wished the same, with this difference:
that the time came when they preferred
cIoth-and that of the latest weave and
QUITO fur But the exigencies of dress
have continued to bore Lord Salisbury.
He has never presented the spic-and-
span appearance of the typical English
man of position. However, bad groom
ing is not the only distinguishing mark
of the Premier of England, and a man
rest of the world may be pardoned for
not looking as if he had stepped out of
a bandboX.

this discovery. For forty years he has
been treating diseases peculiar to
women, and long ago he reached the
conclusion that woman entirely free
from catarrhal affection of these organs
would not be subject to female disease.
He therefore began using Peruna for
these cases and found it SO admirably
adapted to their permanent cure that
Peruna has now become the most IA
nous remedy for female diseases ever
known. Everywhere the women are
using it and praising it. Peruna is not
+ a palliative simply; it cures by re-
moving the cause of female disease. e.
DR.. Hartman has probably cured
more women of female ailments than
any other living physician. He makes
these cures simply by using and recon-
mending Peruna.
If you do not derive prompt and sat-
isfactory results from the use of Pc
runa, write at once to DR.. Hartman,
giving full statement of your case and
he will be pleased to give you his val
liable advice gratis.

Old Joe, the Nightwatchman
From, the Puu Mall Gazette. London

From the PuH MaU Garette. London.
sold Joe" is in the employ of the
Lambeth Water Works, and is well
and favorably known. He has been a
night watchman for many years, in the
course of which he has undergone many
experiences. What with wet and cold,
which fairly doubled him up, and it
began to look serious matter for Old
Joe whether he would much longer be
able to perform his duties, on which
his good wife and himself depended for
a livelihood, but as it happened a
passer-by, who had for some nights
noticed Old Joe's painful condition,
presented him with bottle of St.
Jacobs Oil, and told him to use it.
Old Joe followed the advice given; he
crawled home the next morning end
babe his wife rub his aching back with
the st. Jacobs Oil ga gentleman gave
him." and undoubtedly his wife did
rub, for when Old Joe went on duty at
night he met his friend and benefactor,
to-whom he remarked: "Them oils
you gave me, Guv'nor, did give me a
doing; they wuz like pins and needles
for a time, but look at me now," and
Old Joe began to run and jump about
like young colt. All pain, stiffness
and soreness had gone; he had been
telling everybody he met what St.
Jacobs Oil had done for him. Old Joe
says now he has but one ambition in
life, and that is always to be able to
keep bottle of St. Jacobs Oil by him,
for he says there is nothing like it in
the world.
St. Jacobs Oil serves the rich and the
poor, high and low, the same way. It
has conquered pain for fifty years, and
it will do the same to the end of time.
1t has no equal, consequently no COM
petitor; it has many cheap limitations,
but simple facts like the above tell an
honest tale with which nothing on
earth can compete.

1t takes a special sort of man to train
wild animals-one who, in addition to
his mysterious power of control, the
influence of which is unexplained BILE

WileS of a Sernenf.

There is nothing SO willy as smart
man. Leave the women out of the aues-
tion altogether. At an entertainment
which was to be devoted entirely to the
reading of poems by the perpetrators
thereof, the audience was a mere hand
full. One man in speaking of it re-
marked: "The rainy evening kept all
the audience away" but another sug-
gested that it was the character of the
entertainment that thinned the crowd.
On this particular evening two friends,
both poets, set out for the scene. One
hesitated about the number of poems
to read, whereon his friend said: lone,
only take one; there will be so many
others to read that one will be enough" :"
He, however, took six along in his in
side pocket, and now since he read
those six and the other man had only
one, the latter is wondering how it
came about, and why the man who
took six should suggest but one to him.

Most Of the requests came by mail.
The Prince, who had met the auto
to give his autograph only to certain in
dividuals. These were the president of
a society or club of which he was the
guest and one or two of those nearest
him at table. To this rule he persist
emily adhered.
At>all the dinners at which the Prince
was guest in this city and elsewhere
requests for his autograph were sent to
him in large numbers, most of them in
notes addressed to him through the pre-
siding officer. Not few of these re-
quests were made personally.
The Prince always took pains to in
form whoever presided at the dinner
of the rule he had made, and left it to
him to explain it to the applicants. In
accordance with the rule he made for
himself he always wrote his autograph
on the menu card of the presiding otfi.

The wonderful toll road from Ironton
to Ouray, Colo, is one of the greatest
attractions in that State of marvels,
both Of scenery and engineering. The
old-fashioned stage, with its romantic
associations. is rapidly becoming a
thing of the past. Hence it is novel
experience to the tourist to climb into
Concord coach and for three hours to
ride along magnificently constructed
road, hewed out from the side of noun
tains at an expense of $4,000 mile,
gazing into the awful depths of the
canyon below, a sheer twelve hundred
feet, or looking forward to range upon
range of frowning and terrible noun
tains.
In no part of the world can such mag
niicence of scenery be compressed into
three hours ride. At times it is alb
solutely overpowering, and the timid
tourist goes through it with averted
eyes and curious sensation about the
roots of his hair When the stage
reaches Bear Greek Falls the climax Of
beauty and terror is reached.

Woman-s Uneven Shoulders.

"Have you,' said one woman to an
other in the course Of a walk through
the shopping district, noticed how
crooked women are getting to be? Look
at some Of the women who pass us, and
see if the right shoulder is not almost
invariably lower than the other" The
other woman looked. and 10! it was so.
1T is the natural result Of always
having train to hold up" said the first
woman. why will women cling to
such unreasonable fashions? A train
is graceful only when allowed to sweep
the ground. and we cannot let it do that
in the dirty street, consequently we are
everlastingly clutching it to keep it
from the pavement, and the position
this neceSsitateS is so constantly as
sumed that the right shoulder is be-
coming lower than the other. If the
thing continues the boasted carriage of
the American girl will soon be an emp
ty boast indeed. The only remedy for
the present, the only hope for the fu-
ture, is to leave off trailing skirts and
go to gymnasium. There. under the
direction of a competent teacher, one
who knows how to cure just such de
fects, train, and never stop until you
are straight again.-New York Sun
