SURPRISING INDIFFERENCE.

" OWN IN Cuba where we cleaned
II up the filthy cities and taught
the natives their first lessons in sani-
tation, there are reports Of yellow fever.
The authorities say there is but one
ease and that the sufferer brought the
disease into the island. But anyway
the authorities at Washington are con-
terned and have politely intlmated TO
the Cuban government that we expect
bf the little republic that she shall profit
by the lessons we taught. keep her
cities clean and employ the usual safe
guards to prevent the rise and spread OF
tirulent contagion.
And we are exercised to this extent

An Old Couples Troubles.

There Is am old couple Of Hillsdale,
Kansas. the husband "A and the wife 81,
who made n discovery late In life that
would have saved lots of their troubles
something they learned about diet.
The old gentleman says; zone day
the doctor told me my wife's trouble
was not heart disease but her stomach,
but she thought he was mistaken. As /
had read several statements in the papers
about Postum Food Coffee my mind was
soon made up, and It was in the Fan Of
1901 that ] got a package OF Postum, ask
ing my wife TO try it.
'sho said she did not believe II would
help her, and so II was laid aside and
she suffered all the winter drinking cof-
fee all the time until about the first OF
May when sho was I'm terrible distress.
zone night about our bed time she said
she must have the doctor but before
you go fix a little Postum ana / will try
it,
so I prepared half pint Of Postum
according TO directions, and as soon as
She had drank il she felt warm and nour-
ished all over and In a little while her
pain was gone, it was like magic. For a
few meals she used a little coffee and
then a wrangling began I'm her stomach
each time, so finally she gave up coffee
altogether and used Postum only. Better
and better she got and grew stronger and
, finally all the old disease left"
Since that time we have used nothing
but Postum. nor have we had any occa-
sion to can for the doctor since. ana I
now advocate Postum 20 everyone /
meet Name given by Postum Company,
Battle Greek Mich.
So many people say. Coffee don't
hurt. ana then tell you they know a
man 20 years old Who has drank II all his
life.' rhat doesn't prove that You can
drink It. zone mans meat is another's
I poison" If coffee agrees ana the drinker
keeps well, stick TO it. but II any kind OF
ails or disease show, better heed the
warning and quit coffee.

book, THE Road TO wellville."

THANKSGIVING DAY.

THANKsG1v1Nc DAY passed OFT
\ quietly. The people generally oh
served its true spirit by participating
In family gatherings where cheerfulness
and good cheer were the controlling inn
pulses.
Thousands gathered at the houses of
worship 20 render thanks for their
blessings, and there was very little in
the celebration Of the day that Is to be
deplored.
The one regrettable incident was the
serious injury to a student Of the Mary
land Agricultural College in a game Of
football between the students OF that
Institution and the team from Delaware
College. The injured young man is be-
ing cared for IN the Delaware Hospital
Of this city where all possible is being
done for his recovery
Football has come to be an incident
OF the modern Thanksgiving. and un-
doubtedly 1t is more to be approved
than certain other forms Of diversion
yet the occasional serious accident
comes as a shock, and goes far to make
the sport which is so popular with coll
leglans unpopular with people gem
orally.

me question is this: Why win most

mechanics are going home? THE tired

Now here Is the incident promised IN

were most crowded, at Eighth st~oot
about a dozen shoppers got on and i'm

straps, while the shoppers seated them-
selves comfortably But one business
man near the door sat unmoved. while

The car stopped; the conductor was al

trying TO get aboard. The rear plat

one could see the old cripple. Then !
was that the man near the door relin

give us an entertaining story that con-
tains a true lesson in courtesy. We
once witnessed a similar incident in a
Philadelphia car, only in that instance
the fine courtesy was shown by a wo-
man. 1t happened this way: A beauti-
fu young woman, stylishly dressed.
boarded car. and was instantly recog-
nized by three young men who were sit
ting together All sprang up and each
begged her to take his seat. Finally by
la little crowdlng they all managed to
be seated.
Then a young colored women with a
babe In her arms got in. She wandered
up to the front Of the car swaying with
her burden. looking for seat. The
young men were busy making them
selves agreeable and could not see the
colored woman. Then the young woman
arose and rendered her seat to the wo-
man with the child. OF course the
young men discovered their manners
them they begged her to have their
seats, but with the sweetest smile and
with a mien that was superb, she de-
clined, and insisted on their retaining
their seats; and thus they rode up town.
We trust that when our correspond
ent comes TO write that book on eti-
quette il viii be made to contain the
idea that courtesy is not simply a duty
to others but to ourselves.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER as, 1904.
REPUBLICAN TARIFF POLICY.

Tt THERE ever was person who
4 held that any tariff law was the
embodiment OF certain schedules that
were sacred. and as little open to de-
bate as the laws on stone handed down
to Moses, he was not a Republican-he
was a fool
There has never been a great leader
who has held that any particular sched-
ule represented the acme OF wisdom,
and that It was sacrilege to think Of
touching It, Garfield has been quoted
as free trader, but there Is nothing
in his writings or in his speeches to
bear out that conclusion. He did be-
lieve that under ideal conditions free
trade would be desirable. but that taxi
ing things as we find them, the protec-
tion principle wisely and temperately
applied is best
Blaine was tariff reformer, and his
ideas Of reciprocity could probably be
applied much further with advantage.
but he was always a protectlonlst. Nc
Kinley achieved fame because OF the
tariff bill which bore his name; thai
bill was based on the protective idea
throughout, but he was not welded e
any one set OF schedules; and this wa,
shown in his last and greatest speech
delivered at Buffalo just before the
tragedy which ended his career.
And, consequently, II President
Roosevelt thinks that the time has
come for another revision OF the tariff,
he shows no departure from the ira
ditional Republican idea. In recogniz-
ing that certain schedules need adjust
ment, he is but recognizing a fact
The only question remaining is wheth-
er 1t is best to put up with the in
equalities or to derange business to a
degree in making the adjustment? For
tunately We are In position where the
revision can be made without a panic.
Both branches OF Congress are over
whelmingly Republican, and the coun-
Try is assured that under Republican
auspices the tarin viii not be changed
radically, nor viii the protective poll
ley be abandoned.
1t is sometimes said that there is lit
lie difference between the parties on
the tariff question: it isn't true, Their
radical disagreement on that question
marks the chief difference in party
principles. The historic doctrine Of the
Democratic party calls for tariff laid
for the sole purpose OF producing rev.
enue, while the Republicans believe in q
tariff sufficient to protect our great in.
terests from disastrous competition.
If the tariff is revised il win be alona
the lines Of the traditional Republican
policy; II will mean adjustment ant
not the abandonment OF that principle
under which our manufactures hav
been built up and have fiourlshed.
