The distracting headaches from which
50 many women suffer make life daily
purgatory. II men suffered with head
ache as women do, business would he
almost at a stanstill. Does not the fact
that men do not suffer from these severe
headaches suggest that there must be a
womanly cause for themS
When the womanly organism is dis
eased, headache, backachc, nervousness
and sleeplessuess are consequences which
are sure to follow.

His First Dress Suit.

"The first time 1 ever put on dress
suit" said ex-Gov. Scofield, "was at
the reception and ball which followed
in the evening of the day that 1 was
inaugurated. I remember that we
had to stand on a little platform,
raised few inches from the floor,
while the crowd passed along and
shook hands with Mrs. Scofeld and
myself.
II weighed just niety-six pounds
at that time, and was As thin as 4
match. Mrs. Scofield is a fieshy wo-
man, and as looked AT her during 4
lull in the procession and then sized
up my own diminutive anatomy
whispered to her;
Martha, we must look like the liv-
ing skeleton and the fat woman in
the dime museum to these people. j."
THAT settled Mrs. Scofield for the
balance of the evening, and to save
herself she could not get rid of the
ripples of mirth that would sweep
over her face and break out into
peals of laughter as the ridiculous
ness of the situation appealed to
her."-Milwaukee Sentinel.

Sermon From an Outlaw.

The wages of sin is death. The fol-
lowing expressions from Cole Younger
the noted Missouri bandit are an i'm
pressive sermon:
81 am not at all proud of my wasted
years. The man who chooses the ca
reer of an outlaw is either a natural
fool or an innocent madman. To me
the word outlaw is living coal of
fire. The past is for me a tragedy
wherein danger turks along every
trail. My young friends, if you are
endowed with physical strength,
valor and a steady hand, let me warn
you to use them we'll, for the God
that gave them is the final victor.
Twenty-Five years of my life l have
passed in prison! How many men
can conceive what suffering that
means, But have learned much in
my lonely cell. I have learned that
hope is divinity: that a surplus of
determination will conquer every
weakness; that vengeance is for God
and not men. I'm often surprised
that 1 remember anything. Prison
life and prison discipline may destroy
a mans reason in much less than a
quarter of a century. Nevertheless,
I am convinced that prisons and pris-
on discipline are the safeguards OF
the nation. There is no true liberty
apart from law. Beyond that bound
airy line liberty must surrender her
rights"

PERIL FOR THE BOYS
Deadly TetdnuS Germs
Blank Cartridges

New York, July 3.-The bacteria
logist of Newark, N. j., board of
health has announced the discovery
of tetanus germs in blank cartridges.
Heretofore it was generally believed
that the many cases of lockjaw fol-
lowing Fourth of July accidents, was
due to dirt on the hands of the vic
Tins at the time they received their
wounds. 1t was not suspected that
fatal germ was in the cartridges.
Several different makes were used in
the tests. Efforts will be made to
check the sales of blanks in the
hope of lessening the usual number
of deaths among children from lock-
jaw.
