The World Today for December: Any
morning In Chicago or New York one
may see girls of 16 or II, with their heads
close together over II newspaper tabula-
ton. trying to figure out winners during
their street car or elevated road ride TO
the factories or offices where they are em-;
ployed. Listen to them and you will hear
the language OF the track. They know
the relative regulations of the Jockeys.
and can talk gliby Of their riding weights
and of their seats in the saddle. They
know the horses and their supposed ik-
ings for track, weight and distance.
Meet them ON the way home and you
will hear them say sadly that luck had
not been with them that day, and win see
them tear up the tickets and throw them
away. Only one thing is worse for these
girls than losing, and that is winning
Losses may bring a tardy, detected re-
form Winnings lead to the frenzy OF daily
trips to the race courses themselves;to the
squirting Sof all wild emotions: to the
plunge into the black, engulfing chnsm
where life is the least of all things lost
Observation will show that boys take
their first gambling lessons earlier than
girls. If they have sucked the poison, they
will be hardened gamblers when not half
! way through their teens. The idea OF
working for living is lost as soon as the
fever Of chance is in their ',ood, In pool
| rooms; on race trains at the tracks, the
| majority of REGULARS are young in5years,
4 though old In everything else.
But though their schooling is sooner ac-
\ duired than. that of girls, 1T is begun at the
same place--tfe handbook kindergarten.
1 and the instructor is the saIne--thc news
paper dope sheet.

A Teachers Testimony.

Hinton, Ky. Nov. 2s.-(Specal)-
1t has long been claimed that Diabetes
is incurable, but Mr.. e. j. Thompson,
teacher in the Hinton school, has
pleasing evidence to the contrary. Mr..
Thompson had Diabetes. He took
Dodd's Kidney Pills and is cured. In
statement he makes regarding his
cure MI. Thompson says:
Il was troubled with my kidneys for
more than two years and was treated
by two of the best doctors in this part
of the State. They claimed had Dia,
betes and there was little to be done
for me. Then l started to use Dodds
Kidney Pills and what they did for me
was wonderful. 1t is entirely owing
to Dodd's Kidney Pills that ain now
enjoying good health
Many doctors still maintain that Dia.
betes is incurable. But Diabetes is q
kidney disease and the kidney disease
that Dodd's Kidney Pills will not cure
has yet to be discovered.

MUSIC BOXES.

Photographs and gramophones and
mechanical piano players had cut into
the music box business. They haven't;
on the contrary, there are more music

ton which no one could use, and the
mechanical piano player was never

we don't sell so many of the big eX-
pensive boxes as we used to. There was
time. about fifteen or twenty years
ago, when they were made costing as
high as $1,000 or $1,000. Those boxes
were as big as a piano. They had all
kinds Of arrangements of bells and
drums and string effects Some of them
We're combined with mechanical tops.
For example. there would be a line of
g little drumners to ring the bells, and
they'd wiggle their heads in a life-like
manner as they worked their drum
sticks. The makers were trying to get
as near the effect Of full orchestra
as they should by mechanical means
When the photograph was made
practical, some six or seven years ago,
it knocked the pins out from under
these makers. The photograph could
reproduce a whole orchestra Of sixty or
more pieces, and the music box was no
where in the game. The makers gave
it up. Nowadays about $500 is the
limit Of price.
THE demand for ordinary boxes,
costing up to $3.50, has kept up steadily
and even gradually Increased. I sup
pose that the photograph got people
into the habit of using mechanical mu-
sic makers.

LIFE IN NEW YORK.
Any Gentleman Can Become a Million

are IF He Gives His Mind to It.
One night last week Henry ]. Smith,
who inherited fifty million dollars, had a
real live duke in bis box at the horse
show. 1t SO happened that the very next

butler. This shocked New York society.
and the following interview about it with
another rich mans butler appears in the
New York World:
