The Theatre Hat.

A manager has the right to make any
reasonable rule as to the conduct of
those who patronize his playhouse.
There can be no doubt that simple
regulation which is designed to give all
who purchase seats an equal opportu-
nifty to see the show is reasonable"
Therefore anybody who makes a fuss
and refuses to consider others is
wholly unreasonable and should be
prepared to leave the theater or give
way to reason. A woman who insists
on wearing big hat in spite of pro-
tests is just as absurd as If she took
squalling baby to a Duse play.-New

GEORGE @. MOYER FOR
- COUNTY RECORDER
Complim entary Words From the Catholic Expon-
ent Of the Democratic Nominee.-A Capable
and Honest Man.

The Catholic Exponent of last week
had the following complimentary
sketch of George c. Meyer, the Demo-
cratic candidate for county recorder:
mo man in Stark county is better
fitted for the position of recorder than
Mr.. Meyer, either in age, experience or
education. Having reached an age
that puts him beyond the follies and
temptations of youth or young man
hood makes him safe man for such
a position.
HE received his education in a sew
eral years course at Freeburg acad-

many years ago and can therefore
write from personal knowledge.
He is affable, earnest, energetic,
sober and honest, and in fact is just
the kind of a man for the important
position of County Recorder. His
personal acquaintance all over the
county and his experience in dealing
with people eminently qualify him to
receive people who have business with
the recorders office.
"He Is man of strong personal
character, of firm convictions, which
he never hesitates to uphold and ex-
press, firm friend, loyal to his

In New York, and, picking up volume,
asked the price. He then suggested
that as a publisher he was entitled to
so per cent. discount. To this the clerk
assented. "As an author" proceeded
Mark, at would appear that l am

WHY HUMANS ARE NOT ALIKE.
The Possibilities Of Diversity In
Every Respect Are Beyond
All Limits.

Everybody is different from every
body else, and in all the world two
persons could not be found who are
exactly alike in every particular
Often one man is seen who resem'
bles some other man, but he is dis
tinguishable nevertheless. Outlines
twins are so nearly duplicates that
people get them mixed, but yet all
their features are not identical, says

A Chicago man, L. A. Vaught, has
been figuring to determine how many
different people there could be in the
world, and yet have no two Of them
alike. The result he has arrived at
is startlingly large, and if the world
were to be the abiding place OF SO
great population there would scarce
ly be standing room.
The possibilities of human diversity
is something extraordinary. There

papers, painting Canada in the dark
est colors. These articles emanate
chiefly from a bureau in st. Louis.
They are sent out at frequent inter
walls for simultaneous publication. A
writer is employed at a high salary
to prepare the matter.
Moreover, statements absolutely at
variance with the truth have lately
been published broad cast. These ap-
pear chiefly in what purport to be
letters from persons who are alleged
to have gone to Canada and become
disguised with it. Only few OF such
have been published and they con-
tain statements that are absurd in
their falsity. Whether the parties
whose names appear in connection
with these letters have ever been
in Canada and If SO, their history
while there, is to be thoroughly
looked into. The discovery Of their
motive, like the discovery of the mo-
tive of the interests who are en-
gineering the opposition, may prove
illumining. In the meantime, however,
it may be pointed out that only few
of such letters have appeared but
since 1897 over $1,000 American set
tiers have gone to the Canadian
West. Can any reasonable person
suppose for q moment that il Cana
do was one-quarter as bad as repre-
scented in these letters the $1,000
Americans now there would remain
in the country; or, IL the Canadian
West had not proved the truth of all
that was claimed for it, the papers
of every State in the American North
west would not be filed with letters
saying so? Imagine $1,000 aggressive
| Americans deceived and not making
short shift Of their deceivers. The
fact is the $4,000 are well satisfied
and are encouraging their friends to
follow them.
(, Anyone who sees any of these dis
paraging letters should remember
that it is railway and real estate in
terests who have from purely selfish
reasons organized a campaign to
stem the flow to Canada. If Canada
were half as bad as represented there
would be no need of such an organi-
cation. The fact that such exists is
OF itself n magnificent tribute to
Canada. Finally it should not be for.
gotten that the letters published are
brimful of falsehoods and that $1,000
satisfied Americans in the Canadian
West constitute living proof that
such is the case.
The Canadian Government Agent
whose name appears in advertise
ment elsewhere in this paper, is au'
thorized to give all information as
to rates, and available lands in West

Paris: Every fine sawdust is some

at least one advantage-it is not poi

food for the larvae of certain insects.
