very pretty picture Of Fiat Rock on
the Schuylhill.p 1t Is water scene.
and will be the doctors motto for
1908.
The next we received from the
Coshocton Lumber company, which
handles all kinds Of building material.
1t is picture of a very beautifui
woman. The policy seems to be to
send these pictures to single men to
inspire thoughts Of woman. These
building material people know that
their business hinges on the tender
passion. One shy glance and a smile
often means few thousand feet OF
framing timber, few thousand OF
siding and flooring, big piles OF lath,
sash, doors, holdings, brick, slate,
lime, cement, plaster, hair, paint, etc.
There's no business more affected by
the pranks of Cupid, and hence there's
nothing more appropriate on the cal
endar than a picture of lovely wom-
an. These building material people
are interested in ones love affairs just
as the undertaken is in ones typhoid
fever.--West Lafayette (O) lndica-

Here's to judge McCarty.

One Of the ablest and most popular
judges who ever sat on the circuit
bench of Ohio was succeeded Tuesday
by Judge McCarty, of Canton. The
Shield sincerely hopes that Judge Nc
Carly, when his time comes to retire.
may leave behind him the same record
of duty well performed and satisfac-
tion given as 1t is now conceded fol-
lows Judge s. M. Douglass as he steps
down from the bench and takes his
place at the bar Judge Douglass was
one of the youngest of the circuit
judges of the state, but easily stood In
the front rank of that able body OF
jurists. SO well was his integrity and
ability recognized by his judicial asso-
ciates that during the single term he
served with them he was chosen chief
justice of the circuit court Of Ohio,
and this in face of the fact that he Is
Democrat while the large majority
of his associates were Republicans.
Judge Douglass upon the bench was
a credit to Richland county and this
judicial circuit and the Shield hopes
that his future career at the bar may
be bright and full of honors, bring
ing him prosperity and the satisfac-
tion that follows the right kind OF
success. Mansfield Shield

A Mansfield Opinion.

The ballet dancer on a three sheet
poster is all right. The United States
supreme court says SO, and what this
august tribunal says goes. The case
came up before the court on an ap-
peal to determine the rights in the
copyright Of Of lithographic poster
to advertise a circus. The conrt rules
that the picture of ballet girl, used
in advertising the show with which
she appeared, is among the X works
connected with fine arts" and any one
using the poster or copy, without
proper permission, Is lawbreaker,
and can be sued for damages. This
ought to put the ballet girl on her
feet. II her picture Is works con-
nected with fine arts" what can he
said of the original? The court does
not pass upon this point, but 1t is an
interesting question that ought u,
have been raised. But 1t is enough to
know that the ballet girl lithograph is
a work of art, and by the same token
all the other pictures put out to ad.
vertise circuses and theatrical attrs<,
tions are also works OF art, entitled to
protection II copyrighted 1t may be
added that some of them ought to be
still further protected with fur over
coats.

A NIGHT-SHIRT TALE.

A joke has just leaked out on GER
tain young fellow residing in this VI
cinity, who ia quite bashful. One night
about month ago, while we were get
ting so many copious showers, he went
to see his girl and 1t began to rain, and
it rained and rained and rained. She
told him it would be pity for him to
go home in the rain and asked him to
stay all night. He hated to refuse, so
he said 'all right" and she told him
she would go and prepare his bed. It
required some little time, and when
she came back imagine her surprise at
finding him dripping with rain. She
asked him where he had been and he
told her he went home to get his night
shirt.-Ottawa County Herald.

NO, A HUNDRED TIMES NO.

Some people seem to be under the
impression that any property which is
rescued from a fire belongs to anyone
who chances to pick 1t up. Anyway,
this was the case last Sunday, when
during the fire kegs of whiskey were
taken from the Hotel Narval bar,
rolled into the alley. the heads knocked
in and the contents passed around TO
men who drank until whislsey ran out
at the corners of their mouths. What

this? Should roaring flames shield
should bold thefts? Such work must

Go and ask the doctor what he

doesn't tell you that is better medi-
cine than barrel of dope.
The walking fad has struck Gin

cause it contains more horse sense
than any mere fad that was evec in
vented. a.
Hundreds of persons who do no.
sleep or eat well, and who are cooped
up all day in stuffy offices, are learn
ing that by the simple expedient of
walking to and from work they can
secure health.
Yes, it's true that you live two and
one-half miles from your work! That
is fine walk. 1t means jumping out
Of bed little earlier. Some discom
fort at first and some resolution. But
it pays.
You'll get dividends. out Of the walk
all day. You'll exercise muscles that
have been dormant for years. You'll!
learn to throw your shoulders back
and fill your lungs with Gods sweet
air, There'll be color in your face and
ears and you'll feel life in your
veins.
e Will it help you to Sleep?
Surely. 1t is the best narcotic
known. Your head will scarcely touch
the pillow when business worries will
fade away, and you'll forget about
work till the time comes for the next
tramp.
Try it.
In a month you will wonder why
you ever fought for a place on the
back platform of a crowded car, when
you possessed the means of locomo-
tion.
Yes, try it-for insomnia and indil
gestion, headaches and the blues.

Between Two Stools.s

The statehood controversy, so far
from having been compromised, con
tinues to do business at the old stand
as a pretended obstruction to public
business. If Senator Quays sole am
bition is to secure the admission OF
these territories he must find himself
in an extremely unhappy position. His
Republican colleagues refuse to sup
port his omnibus bill because 1t
woud increase the Democratic repre-
sentation, and, when he seeks to
placate the opposition Of his party
members by agreeing to compromise
which would make two Republican
states, is Democratic allies, whose
support has enabled him to dominate
the situation thus far, Indignantly re-
pudiate him. The prospect, therefore.
is that there will be no statehood leg
islation at this session.
II this report of the situation is cor
rect it is obviously up to the Repub.i-
can majority in the senate to take
such action as will remove the dead
lock. The most Important work of the
session remains TO be done and the
time is even now all to short In
which to do it.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
