Spring Fever.

Spring fever is another name for billiousness. It is more serious than most people think. A torpid liver and inactive bowles means poisoned sys
 tem. If neglected, serious illness may follow such symptoms. DeWitt's Little Early Risers remove all danger by stimulating the liver. opening the bowles and cleahsing the system of inn purities. Safe pills. Never gripe. "I have taken DeWitt's Little Early Ris- CTS for torpid liver every spring for years," writes R. M. Everly, Mounds vile, w. Va. ''rhey do me more good than anything have ever tried" w. Fl. Timerhoff. 2

The funeral of Archie Richards, the young man who was killed Friday at the Pickerel mine, took place Saturday evening in this city, and was attended by a large number of his friends and acquaintances. He was endeavoring at the time of the accident to rescue a fellow.miner whose foot was caught by a cave-in, being pinned so firmly that he could not move, and it was while endeavOring to remove the boulder that second cave followed which caught Richards and killed him instantly. Tn endeavoring to save one man he lost his own life, and this makes his death all the more sorrowful. He was a young man, but twenty-four years of age, agreeable at all times and universally popular, as was shown by the large number of people who came from Lynx creek to attend his funeral.-Journal.

the end me may have enough
credits to let him through. but his
preparation for life is not to be COM
pared with that of the youngsters
whose parents could not afford to send
him to college and who has worked
with might and main at some business,
trade or profession.
In business life there is no one to
urge a young man forward. There are
many competitors and the boy knows
his place is sought by others. If he
does not compass a certain standard Of
usefulness to his employer. the latter
summarily dismises him. There are no
tears, no adjurations to do better,
nothing that the boy is accustomed to
at home and at school, and the at
mosphere and discipline makes fibre.
Notwithstanding all this. the future
man of large affairs is likely to be an
educated man, and unless the fresh
man has definitively demonstrated his
inability to resist the manifold tempta-
tions to immortality so freely extended
to him by this city, 1t is much better
that he go to work, and most parents
recognize this fact.

T H E COU r l E r

Cecil Rhodes dreamed of empire in
South Africa. He melted the Jameson
raid He said that his dream meant
greater empire for England and glory
for himself as the founder of it. Cecil
Rhodes is dead, and we are not likely
to know whether he loved himself or
England supremely. The day of es-
tablishing a new dynasty is passed.
When the kings sons and all the
kings nephews and nieces, when their
brothers, uncles and remote cognates
are dead and the last representative
of the fading. ailing dynasties now
ruling the old world are gone. a might
Ter than Napoleon or Charlemagne
must arise to lay the claimant democ-
racy. We are not anarchists to over
turn an old order by which our fathers
have lived and prospered, but the Eng
lish language is growing and the ideas

by the peoples of the earth. There are
trees more than a thousand years old.
but time will conquer them and the
moment will come when a breeze will
crack the bole of the oldest and
strongest redwood yet living. It is
still the age of the king, but his ex-
tinction is historically foreshadowed.
The mad kings of Bavaria, the puny
king of Spain, the dying energy of the
scrofulous Hohenzollerns magnificently
revived in the Emperor William, the
English HanOverians who already have
no vital connection with the govern
ment, the Sultan of Turkey, even the
discredited empress of China, are cur
rent indications of the eventual ex-
tinction of the monarch from execu-
tive power in the affairs of men of all
nations.
Cecil Rhodes was born in times
marked modern. In the days Of
Charlemagne or as late as Charles the
Bold, when kings were still a'making,
his dream might have come true. But
1902 is long past the time.

With the Aid Of the Mules

Boer statesmen and letter writer's to
the newspapers have been complaining
because this country furnished Eng
land with mules for the African cam
paign. But the disaster which has
overtaken General Methuen was pre-
cipitated by the mules and his own
failure to learn how to fight bOer
guerillas. The men were marching in
a long loose line and at the first sound
of the firing the mules stampeded for
the rear and the soldiers after them.
If it had not been for the assistance
of the mules the British defeat would
not have been so overwhelming. In
consequence the Dutch forces are elated
and the British army correspondingly
depressed. The buOyant feeling which
had begun to prevail in England is
clOuded. 1t is intimated that more
troops must be forwarded to South
Africa and this does not mean that
peace and surrender are in sight of
either army. The war is now entering
upon the last half of the third year.
Its cost up to the present time nearly
equals the amount paid on the British
public debt during the long reign OF
Queen Victoria, and every week it
adds millions more.

1t Is said that the secretary's own

officials who live on bullying and
bribes.
But We are quieted by the name of
freedom. We think we can assert our
selves in an extremity. Meanwhile this
abuse OF travellers continues.
The Boston women who protested
asked Dean Irwin of Radcliffe college
to draft reply for them. The letter
which she framed complains of the
small value of the clothing admitted
duty-free, of the provisions OF the law
which require full duty to be paid on
clothing which has been altered or re-
paired abroad I'm order to make u wear
longer. and of the common practice of
customs officials to require payment of
duty on the original cost OF clothes
which have lost much OF their value
by being worn. 1t requests a repeal of
the present law and a return TO the
rule laid down In the Mckinley tariff.
IL that cannot be done, IL holds that
law may still be mitigated and sug-
gests that customs officers be allowed
discretion to accept the oath which IL
exacted from every passenger and dis
where smuggling is suspected; that
since fine clothing is now often dam
aged by the examinations which are
now conducted officials should be con-
and skilled packers should be employ
ed to repack them; that the customs
officers should be constrained to civil
behavior, and that an officer appoint
ed for that duty should be on the dock
to look after them and receive the re-
monstrances of passengers who think
themselves misused These are sensi-
BILE and very moderate suggestions:

The Man Who Would Be King

Tnere is no road TO royalty that the
man who is not a prince can take.
. Napoleon, Aaron Burr and Cecil
Rhodes had dreams of empire. Napo-
leon was not even a citizen of the
country of which he crowned himself
king. He was not an usurper in tie
accepted sense. He came to the throne
not with soldiers of another country
to enforce his claims, but as the head
of the French army. He made him
self emperor, taking the crown from
the hands Of the pope and placing it
on his own head. He reigned for
few years with oriental absoluteness.
He placed his brothers on the thrones
Of Italy. the Netherlands and Spain.
General Bernadotte was made king of
Sweden. The tradition of the divine
right Of kings and of being born to
everlasting denial. All the monarths
who were still on their thrones made
an alliance and the trust conquered
Napoleon at Waterloo. If Napoleon,
the faith and affection of thousands
of soldiers, finally failed to conquer
kingdom, it is not likely that any man
of less supreme military intelligence
and inspiration will ever succeed in
founding a dynasty. However en-
feebled by generations of inter-mar-
riage the sons of the monarchs Of
Europe become, there is no son of a
peasant can take princes place. The
old Greeks believed their rulers were
descended from the gods. There are
only a few families; the Bourbons, the
HOhenzOllerns, the Hanovers, and a
few others from whom rulers are re-
cruited. II the scion of an unknown
and unanointed family undertakes to
crown himself, his tradition-bound sub
jects will dethrone his son, no matter
how wise his rule.

House-C1eaning

The carpet bombardment has begun,
and its dust conceals the p"p behind
the three feet of rubber hose. Early in
the morning the Greamers, halfway
between slumber and full conscious
ness, hear the dull booming that stimu-
lates the dormant memory of Independ-
ence days or the first guns of battles.
The sound puts persistent sluggards
sounder to sleep. Their subconscious-
ness realizes that unless the explosions
are ignored duty will force them out
of bed at an unusually early hour.
The mind of man is incapable of
compromising the pleasure and salts
faction a woman experiences in know
ing that her home and everything i'm
it is clean; that there is not a corner,
or moulding, or a trunk, or a chest
that has not been inspected, overhauled
and cleaned. The satisfaction of
knowing that the whole house is clean
is not balanced by any other pleas
ures of the year. AT other periods
of the year the several rooms of the
houses that good house-keepers pre-
side over are cleaned and put in order,
but only twice a year are their dwell
ings clean all over simultaneously.
After the last bureau drawer has been
rearranged for the summer, the last
book shaken, busted and returned to
it's place on the shelves and the last
nic he inin
clean wall, there is ineffable and per-
feet satisfaction for woman. If men
get reasonably palatable food three
times a day or twice, and if the house
appears to be clean they are satisfied.
On the days when the women reckon
with the accumulations of six months,
there is distinct lowering of the So
cial temperature. Never mind; the
fragrance of cleanliness will penetrate
the less sublimated masculine intelli-
gence finally. Order is Heavens first
law, and when human beings have es-
tablished it there is a momentary feel
in gof satisfaction that dissipates the
memory of meals eaten in corners for
a fortnight.
The man of the house holds that
three meals a day eaten with the
proper ceremonies and observances
should not be disturbed because the
housekeeper is endeavoring to bring
her house into relation with the time
Of the year. The spring impulse ex-
presses itself in the young man by

Okhotsk to Arabia. That was a mighty
fleet. OF it today are left but 80 small
barks and schooners. January 1, 1859,
year before the civil war began, there
were 625 vessels; by 1856 the figures had
fallen to 263 The annals of ruined New

the decrease was caused by the vndictive
Alabama. The Whalers would be coming

Their holds were loaded down with oily

'parlors." Occasionally their possession
of 'parlor" is disputed by q colony of
italian garbage scow trimmers, who also
have a fancy for this reversion TO the pre-
historic life OF the lake dwellers. Occa-
sionally the huge, NANCY, brown dock rats
fight them. But the tenement house boy
fears neither man. rat nor devil, and usual
iy holds whatever possession he chooses to
make his.
Sometimes a boy Is drowned. That is not
really remarkable, since the youth OF the
East and West Sides rather despises the
sybarite who waits to learn to swim In the
floating free baths. The real tenement
house boy finds out whether or not he can
swim by jumping of into the river from the
string piece Of a pier. The water being
anywhere from thirty to sixty feet deep
and the current being swift enough always
TO tax the wheels of ferry boat to stem II,
the boy has no time to theorize II he be-
gins to sink. there usually are swimmers
enough to dive for him and drag him TO the
pier.
Tenement house boys believe implicitly
however, that nobody browns unless he has
begun to go down for the third time. This
often makes them unfortunately tardy in
pulling a sinking comrade out quite soon
enough.
