CASEY ON

Editor Casey believes in waiting
until the spirit moves him. In a re-
cent issue he says:
"The Express frequently receives
articles on woman suffrage which it is
unable to publish. We believe that a
newspaper is made as much by what
it leaves out as by what it prints;
and not believing that woman suff-
rage is a question or general interest,
we just omit it. The Express has no
special bias against the idea of wo-
man suffrage, but doesn't regard it as
a pressing issue-just as we look upon
the question of baptism by sprinkling
or by immersion, or the equally con-
Stunning problem as to Just when and
where a CLAW hammer" coat should
or should not be worn. In fact, so
tolerant of the views of others is this
great family news paper that it cheer
fully comedies the right of man to
wear his dress suit to a football game
If he wants to, and the right of every
body to be baptized both ways If it
will make him better and in the same
way we are quite willing that those
who wish may "whoop it up" for wo-
man suffrage, but we're Just an limo
cent by-stander and don't feel called
upon to yell until we feel an interest
in the subject"

RULES FoR LONGEVITY.

There are, or were in 1900, 1856
persons in the United States 100 years
of age or upward. This may not seem
very many out of a total population
OF ~76,000,000, but it is twice as many
as there are in Germany, England,
France, Scotland and Servia, with a
combined population double that of
the United States. More people be-
come centenarians in this country
than in any other. OF those who at
tain that extreme age about two-thirds
are women. OF the 600 centenarians
interviewed by American newspapers
since the last census was taken prac-
tically all gave the same rules for the
guidance of those who desired to at
tain equal distinction in longevity.
These rules were: Regular habits;
hard work; plenty of exercise; simple
food; marriage and avoidance of wor-
ry. All insisted that the best of rules
was that prescribing hard work, and
all but two or three were equally in
favor of marriage. Half of them, in
Guiding many women, declared
strongly in favor of liquor and to-
bacco.

MONEY IS

When three years ago the an
nouncement was made that the Meth
'odist Episcopal church of the United
States would attempt to raise 100000
900 by Dec. 81, 1902, the skeptical were
inclined to smile. Similar efforts, al
though none SO pretentious, have been
made before, and have failed. Not so
with the Methodists, however. On
December 81, in the Trinity Methodist
Episcopal church of Springfield, Mass,
DR.. Edmund NJ. Mills, chairman of the
Embarrassing committee, will announce
at midnight that the $780, 900 are
at hand.
To raise $4,000, 900 in three years
is something that one would never ey-
pect to see-outside of Wall Street.
The interesting part also is, as an
nounced by Mr.. Mills, that most of
the contributions have been small
ones. Few large sums have been re-
ported. One man, the son of a Meth
odist clergyman, who, it is said, never
earned more than $500 in a year, gave
$500, 900. For the most part, however,
the widows mites predominated. The
Norwegian conference of Minnesota
gaze an average of s22 for each mem
Der, and the German conference of
Oregon an average of $40 a member.
AS to the ends to which the money
will be used, it is announced 100000
will be applied to education. Another
So, O00, 900 will be used to pay off
church Indebtedness, and 1t is said in
another year every Methodist church
in the country will be cleared of debt.
About 100000 win be devoted to a
fund for the support of retired clergy
men, and still another large sum will
go to the Methodist hospitals, ten or
which have been founded within the
past three years.

The democratic papers of the
Sixth district, which were so active in
opposing trusts and combines and
mergers, during the recent campaign
are setting mighty poor examples of
consistency, now that the election is

over the merger Of the Times and
Journal of this city had scarcely died
away when the report came from OF
tumwa that the News and Democrat
of that city had also formed a trust,
and would hereafter Top of the unne-
cessary expenses and trot in double

The Sioux City Journal tells of a
South Dakota woman now living with
her fourth husband who was arrested
in Sioux City the other day for shop
lifting. Her prospect for a merry
Christmas looked very slim until hus-
band No. 2, who happened to live in
Sioux City, appeared on the scene,
and provided sufficient funds to pay
the woman's fine and send her away
rejoicing. The moral the Journal de-
duces from the incident is that it
sometimes pays to keep a few hus-
bands hanging around.

WOMEN and Jewels.

Jewels, candy, flowers, man
that is the order of woman's pref
erences. Jewels form a magnetic
mighty power to the average wo-
man. Even that greatest Of all
Jewels, health, Is often ruined In
the strenuous effort to save the
money to purchase them. If a
woman will risk her health to get
a coveted gem, then let her fortify
herself against the insiduous conse-
quences of coughs, colds and bronl
chial affections by regular use OF
DR.. Boschee's German Syrup. It
will promptly arrest consumption
In Its early stages and heatl the at
fected lungs and bronchial tubes
and drive the dread disease from
the system. It Is not a cure all
but 1t Is a certain cure for coughs
colds and all bronchial troubles.
