Did Rockefeller Mix In or Was He
Mixed In?

M1ACu al
The Associated Press is not in the habit
of indulging in the fascinating fake. To
keep on the safe side it often permits
itself to be scooped by special correspond
ents, especially Washington correspond
ents. So when the good people of
that John D. Rockefeller, the incarna-
ton Of the trust idea, the richest man
in the world, and the head. Of its most
potent and capaci6us trust had tele-
graphed an order toSa number of United
States senators to the effect that anti
trust legislation must be stopped, they
experienced that delightful sensa ton Of the
hardened newspaper reader when he finds
something genuinely and holly new.
Such of them as had been reading Ida
Tarbelrs history of the Standard Oil
in McClure's and had found out what q
many sided character Rockefeller's is,
were willing to believe 1t or dfsbelieve it
with equal readiness. They knew that
Rockefeller is possessed of monumental
nerve and appalling audacity; they knew,
too, that he Is a lover of quiet methods,
that he works Behind cover, obtrudes
himself but little and says less; also they
knew him to be a shrewd man who figures
to be tactically right about 80 per cent
of the time. Knowing tfattif Mr.. Rookie
accomplished the best method he could
have taken would be ITO send suchstele-
grams, those wise readers .conjectured
that for some mysterious reason he might
want trust legislation. ~
To-day we are told that Mr.. Rockefel-
Ter did nothing more than telegraph one
of the New York senators that the Clapp
amendment to the Elkins bill is enough
trust legislation for one session Of con-
gress. Whatever Mr.. Rockefeller did,
we can we'll understand why he should be
| opposed to all trust legislation, and be-
| lieve that he is; and not being able to
| stop it ALL would draw the line at the
Nelson publicity amendment. The Clapp
amendment is aimed at those rebates
from which the Standard Oil sprung into
existence. But the structure is complete
now; the Standard Oil is monopoly, and
rebates are not necessary to its hold or
| power. a

MY SPRINGS.

In the hearts of the Hills of Life know
Two springs that with unbroken flow
Forever pour their. lucent streams
Into my souls far. Lake of Dreams.
Not larger than two eyes. they lie
Beneath the many. changing sky.
And mirror all of fife and timeI
Serene and dainty pantomime.
Shot through with lights Of stars and
dawns,
And Swallowed sweet by ferns and fawns,
Thus heaven ana earth together vie
Their shining depths to sanctify.
o Love, o Wife, thine eyes are they,
My spring from out whose shining gray
Issue the sweet celestial streams
That feed my LIES bright Lake Of
Dreams.
Oval and large and passion-pure,
And gray and wise and honor sure;
Soft as a dying violet breath
Yet calmly unafraid of death.
Thronged like two dovecotes of gray
doves,
With wife's and mothers and poor folk 8
loves.
And home-love and high glory loves,
And science-loves and story loves.
And love for all that God and man
In art and nature make or plan,
And lady-loves for spidery lace,
And broideries and supple grace.
And diamonds and the whole sweet round
OF Titles that large life compound,
And love for; God and Gods bare truth,
And loves for Magdalen and Ruth
| Dear eyes, dear eyes, and rare complete
Being heavenly sweet and earthly sweet
marvel that God made you mine.
For when He frowns It's when We shine!

portant Confession
From certain advices lately received
from the upper world, I judge that an at
tempt is being made to prove that am
still living in the flesh and did not meet
an untimely end in the final conflict be-
tween myself and Professor Moriarity.
Inasmuch as this is constructively if not
Intentionally an attack upon my sincerity
Venture herewith, my dear Watson, to
send to- you, Through the medium of my
present editor, your new address being
unknown to mel, a true statement of what
actually happened together with some ac-
count of my more recent adventures in
this wondrous lower world, whittier all
must sooner or later betake their way.
Frankly have been hourly expecting you
here, else I should have communicated
with you earlier. So many good Britons
are daily arriving in large consignments,
DUE am told, to- the ravages of war,
that knowing your reckless habit Of pat
riotism, I have feared-and for my own
pleasure hoped, hoped-that ere many
days should greet you with welcoming
arms. This eventuation now appears re-
mote, and however muchrI may regret the
postponement Of a. reunion which would
gladden. my spirit and relieve the tedium
Of many a lonely hour here by the Styx,
nevertheless cannot but glad for old
England's sake that you are yet spared to
her, since she stands to-day in such Woe
| full need of her purest and best.
From the moment of my arrival have
found much to occupy my time and to
divert my mind, and plenty of oppor-
tunity likewise for the practice Of my pro-
fession. Most divert1g was the spec
| tacle afforded my eyes on the first day
after my arrival here as I walked up the
main business street of Cimm eria, a busy,
bustlfng avenue, wherein In the course OF
| an hours walk one might encounter the
greatest figures in all history from Adam
down to Bismarck, great figures In art
letters and science. great soldiers, great

say, to see swinging ovehead, amid al

MODERN CLOTHING TOO THICK
Heavy Underwear Especially Checks
Respiratory Action Of the
skin and ExcretiOn.

An evil effect OF modern clothing
is that by its thickness it interferes
with the -excreting and respiratory
action of the skin. The work OF ex-
cretion is thus either thrown upon
other organs already overtaxed or
upon some tissue which the body Sc
lects as a possible medium for elm
nation. Thus it is likely that On.
tarrh is always caused by the inac-
tiyity of the skin. The matter thus
left in the body through the inac-
tivity of the skin seeks egress by
means of the mucous membrane,
which is merely kind Of internal
skin, and thus we have catarrh, says
the Healthy Home. People need pro-
lection in cold weather, but they do
not need their thick clothes in their
warm houses. One of the hardest
things to accomplish in our change
able climate is to remove winter
weight clothes at the proper time
without the usual ensuing colds and
other disorders. Unless exposed TO
all weathers in some outdoor EN-
ployment, the better way is to wear
light or medium-weight undergar-
ments and suits the year round, de-
pending on heavy outside wraps to
protect the system during outside
exposure in cold or windy weather.

REFORMS IN THE BEDROOM.

quently washed and kept soft and
white. Tucking the bedclothes tight
ly in is another popular error. The
practice OF making up a bed almost
air-tight is as unhealthful as it is un-
clean, says Good Health.
The bed should not be placed
against the wall, but should be ac-
cessible on both sides. The old
fashion Of placing the bed in an al
cove, which cannot be ventilated SO
well as large room, is considered
to be IN unhygienic one. An excel
lent reason why bed should not be
placed against the wall is that the
person who. sleeps at the rear of the
bed is likely to have his face, dur
ing sleep, so near the wall that his
breath, striking the wall, will be re-
breathed again.
So large portion Of existence Is
necessarily spent in sleep that the
location of the bed, the covering and
bedding, and the furniture of the
bedroom should be the subjects Of
consideration and thought. AS it is,
too often this is the last room con-
sidered. In many families good
sized closet, with no opening into the
outer air, is considered good enough
for bedroom. Not only should the
bedroom be thoroughly ventilated
and exposed to the rays Of the sun,
but the bed clothing should be taken
off and hung in the air and sun for
several hours before the bed Is
made up.

Two elderly men were conspicuous

short, slow, and heavy of tread, and

and strength of the Minnesota Fair
is found in the fact that for the Ma
tional Live Stock exhibitions this year
there will be more cattle entered than
ever before. The officers of the Am
.erican Hereford Breeders Association
and the American Short Horn Breed
ers' Association state that interest in
the great exhibition and sales at the
Minnesota State Fair is more pro-
nounced than ever and that there will
be a very choice lot of animals on
view and for sale at auction. In fact
the 100 head of Hereford cattle for the
auction of that class of animals, were
entered with the secretary Of the
association as early as May 1st of this
year. This is quite different from the
first year of the sale when it was inn
possible to find Is head of Herefords
to be offered for sale. Breeders are
now anxious to have their cattle ex-
hibited and placed for sale before
