Would be a Happy Loss.

It is very gratifying to note that
the opposition to Henry Cabot Lodge
is so strong that be will probably be
left at home n~Xt year. He has been
held up as an example Of the scholar
in poli,ics," and in the estimation OF
not few he is neither scholar nor
politician. That be is learned man
gees without saying. Eas he not
written much important A'celican
history from q New England view
point? Yes, and it is all rabid, parti-
san and tinctured with falsehood like
his whole public career. 1t may be
accepted as history according to Har-
ward standards, but the world will
speedily forget that it was ever writ
ten. No such autocrat and arrogant
S; Oh could either make history or
write i. aud in after years the only
thing Lodge will be remembered for
is his connection witn force bill ard
his Influence at the White House.
The former was disgrace 70 any de-
cent white mar, and the latter has
been the cause of his lost prestige at
home. When Teddy says Go this,

siderate in his manner or ragardful

Pennsylvania Witch Doctors.

Many would be surprised to learr
that very genuine and active relic
of the belief in witchcraft still exists.
"Hexerei'' is today such q living nui-
sance throughout number of conn
ties of Pennsylvania that a determined
effort. it is said, is to be made by the
State medical board to uproot it. The
duty has been to5 long postponed, and
if it is thoroughly done there will be
saved many lives and much suffering
and expense on the part of tie victims

perstition.
Charms, incarnation, doctors for
milk-souring and hocus-pocus of
strange varieties, doctors and RENE
dies for Mysteries, COLDS, hemorrhages,
pains, tootbaches, whoopiDg cough,
hair-growing and bair-destroying, for
cuts, burns, wounds, sprains, etc.,
abound among these devotees and

an echo of middle age nonsense, of
which these are samples:

three small lunches of hair from the
crown of the head of child that has
never seen It's father; sew this up in
an unbleached rag and hang it around

Cassius B. Wilkinson, son OF the
taller, who is in the city on a visit,
was seated in the yard conversing with
his brother A portion Of his colored
socks showed over his shoe tops. The
crazy man approached him and, assum-
ing dignifed mein, gravely said;
eYoung man, il / was In your proud
position and wore socks, and ! should
meet a gentleman in my position who
had no socks, I'd take mine right of
and give them to him"
Mr.. Wilkinson replied that his socks
we're only a bluff; that they had no
s.hooks.n
Not content to give up, the man
with the mainsprings In his head said:
ssNeyer mind, young gentleman,
don't mind if they have no feet. 1
only want to show them of for the
sake of appearance, anyhow"
He did not get the socks but was
soon haranguing the visitor about
the awful hereafter in store for the
sinful and wicked, and those whose
vanity led them into wearing colored
hosiery. As Reynolds demanded that
Wilkinson unburden his sin-laden soul
in complete confession, the latter
made his escape.
