Judge Parker and Stamping.

1t was Mr.. Taggart who when told that
a stumping tour by Judge Parker wouio
not be dignifed proceeding replied. dig
nifty be d-d!" AS practical polticiah
he was after votes, and as hustifns
Hoosier was familiar with but one way
of getting them He wanted the candidate
to go west and stir up the country A great
scheme danced before him. He saw the
Sage of Esopus on flying special whirled
from town to town, and from state 10
state. everywhere greeted by enormous
crowds and uncontrolled enthusiasm; and
when his suggestion was met as stated ne
naturally grew profane.
The candidate himself sided against the
chairman. He, too. thought 1t would be
unseemly for him to go rushing ABOUT
the country tickling the electorate with
short talks and campaign jollyings. He de-
cided that it would be better for the elector-
ate In squads to come to him; and so ne
opened the front gate and hung the latch
string on the outside Of his front door. ana
invited everybody to Rosemount. Quite a
number responded. and several very agree
able meetings were held. The proceedings
were very dignified, but somehow the cam
paign languished.
Then came a change. The wisdom Of Mr..
Taggart stood revealed Even Judge Par
ker agreed with him, although We may be
sure he did not express himself in the terms
that Mr.. Taggart had employed. He got
out, as Mr.. Taggart had advised, and be-
gan to hustle. The shades OF Rosemount
were forsaken for the hard streets and tall
houses of Greater New York, and since then
he has been a busy man.
Does he like the change? The probability
is that he does. Those meetings in New
York must have been very inspiring to a
man who for nearly twenty years has been
cooped up in a court room listening to the
droning of contending lawyers. Think of
the Nominations; the acres of upturned
faces; the hoarse roar of applause, lasting
sometimes twenty minutes: the blare of
brass bands, and to cap it all the way in
which every mention of his own name was
received He not only likes 1t, but in all
probability regrets that he did not earlier
fall in with his chairman'S views, and go
out and take a look at the Wabash country.
The result is a triumph for Mr.. Taggart.

Buffalo Bill.

Buffalo Bill has returned home just in
time to take a hand in an old-fashioned
man hunt. He sprang from the railroad
train into the saddle, and started at once
on the trail of some bank robbers. Several
titled Englshmen had accompanied him
home as his guests, and with true American
hospitality he invited them to take part in
the sport. The younger men accepted, and
will. we may be sure, enjoy the experience,
unless the robbers prove the better marks

short. Buffalo Bill is not as young as he

Music as Medicine.

A medical man recently wrote a treatise
on Emusic as a therapeutic adjunct" and
many doctor-editors are now busy with a
discussion of music as medicine There Is
much music that is so bad it ought to make
good medicine Unexpected virtue has been
found In weeds, noxious growths, baleful
plants and other things of small esteem,
and perhaps it was a knowledge of this
which prompted the physician to seek me-
dicinal virtue In music Or, perhaps,
knowing that some music sometimes makes
well men sick, this genius reasoned on
Hahnemann's theory that some music
might make sick men WELL
There are those who no doubt will hold
the view that music is a dangerous remedy,
and that in many instances 1t Is worse than
the disease. No doubt many OF the medt-
cal fraternity will hold that music to be
eflcacious a. q curative agent should b

issued this year.

Courage.

In about a week or two
What a difference we'll view.
Then the bets will all be paid;
No more bands will serenade
Speakers, whose emotions tense
Burst In fiery eloquence!
No more terror In the throng
Lest the country's going wrong!
No more eulogies sublime;
No more pictures. no more rhyme
Telling how one candidate
Is surprising good and great,
While the other, sad to see,
Is as bad as he can be!
Then will simply trudge along,
Some with signs and some with song
Cheer up-it will all be through
In about a week or two.
