Sure Sign.

"a friend of mine, an overworked
editor" said Senator Depew, accord
ing to the Denver Republican, took
last summer his first vacation in seven
teen years.
He went to rugged New England
district a quaint village that nestled
at the foot of great mountains on the
shore of a deep lake.
He arrived on a bright, fine morn
ing, and so greatly was he pleased
with the grandeur of the scenery and
with the pure and perfumed air that
setting out for a little exercise, he soon
found himself leaping fences, running
singing and dancing through the
county like a child.
Suddenly, as he skipped around a
curve Of quiet road, hand was laid
on his shoulder, and a stern, angry
face looked into his.
Come with me to the station house,
a harsh voice said.
Why, what for asked the amazed
editor.
I am the town constable said the
other, and for the last half-hour I
have been watchin' We jumpin over
fences an singin' an dancin'. No sane
man would act so, an I'm goin to
lock We up for an escaped lunatic.' -

Brother BIewIy.

From the Chicago Tribune.
Now, Brother Blewly lives a life in
which there is no fault:
He never takes a line of march on
which you might call halt"
And, no bad habits being his, he
spends most of his days
In worrying about the world which
has such sinful ways.
He signs, when some good deed is
done, and the account appears:
well. l dunno
1t may be So
This is a sinful vale o. tears"
When in applause of some ones act
the other people shout,
Good Brother Blewly shows us where
there's room to nurse a doubt;
He views the world with sorrow, and
with wisdom in his glance
He sees where others would be bad
If they but had the chance.
He signs, when of some noble trait
in some one else he hears:
We'll, l dunno
1t may be So
This is a sinful vale o. tears"
Good Brother Blewly tells up of temp
tations he has met.
OF how with wicked lures and traps
MS pain mas Deen DeSet,
And how he's duly thankful he evad-
ed one and all
We tell him of some other man who
also did not fall
''Ah, yes says Brother Blewly-but
he cannot hide his fears:
We'll, ! dunno
II may be So
This is a sinful vale o. tears"
Good Brother Blewly says a man
that's acting for the best
May really In his Utmost heart be
worse than all the rest;
You see he's seen a lot Of men and
watched them come and 70.
And while they may seem very good
and straight. you never know
He says. when II Is rumored that
some one from goodness veers.
We'll. ! dunno
II may be So
This is a sinful vale o tears. q"

A New slang phrase coined.

William Gordon of New Orleans,
who is spending the summer in New
York, has added new phrase to the
lexicon of slang, and fellow-towns-
man supplied it, according to the New
York Times.
Perhaps" said Mr.. Gordon, there
are few people who could, If request
ed, define the meaning of the term,
"A wise spender' l couldn't this morn
ing, but I am able to do it now. 1 met
a Louisiana boy who is here on his
vacation, and he was telling me of a
trip he made to Coney Island with a
young New Yorker and two girls to
whom the New Yorker had introduced
him.
81 had a great time he told me.
But l spent a bunch of money
Wasn't your friend a good spend
er?' 1 asked.
He was wise spender,' was the
reply. He was very speedy when it
came to paying car fare. but anybody
could beat him to a dinner check

HEALTH AND SANITARY BOARDS.


According to a publication made yes
terday morning the ordinance relative
to milk inspection is to be published
ito satisfy the newspapers and the
people" What reason is there for
thinking the publication of the ordi-
nance will satisfy the newspapers and
the people? Have they been clamor-
ing for it's publication? We have not
noticed that the newspapers have been
saying much about the matter, but ii
is probable that there are people who
think that milk ought to be inspected
for the purpose of seeing whether or
not it comes up to requirements. and
whether it contains anything deleteri-
Gus to health. 1t seems, however, that
there is to be no inspection, and. hence,
there is no use saying anything more
about the matter. If there are people
who want to know why the ordinance
is permitted to remain a dead letter,
they will have to make inquiries of
the members of the sanitary board.
No doubt the cause of the
talk of the need for milk inspection
is the fact that there are some mild
cases of typhoid fever in the city.
There is no charge that the fever in
lection is traceable to the milk sup
ply, but it would be satisfying II such
inspection were made. If the milk
purities any talk there might be that
the source of the fever was the milk
supply would cease at once.
The opinion of Health officer Brun-
ner that cows shouldn't be kept with
in the city limits is no doubt based
upon good reasons, but it is doubtful
If much harm comes from families
keeping one or two cows, providing
the sanitary inspectors do their duty
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES is, that they see
to it that premises are kept CLEAN
but it is a question whether it is good
policy to permit dairies within the
limits of the city. Such institutions
require quite large number of cows
which are kept in stalls and in yards.
II is a dificult matter to keep dairy
premises, where they are so limited,
in good sanitary condition. Besides,
the milk of cows kept in stalls the
year around, under certain condi-
tons. is not as desirable as that OF
grass fed cows.
We assume that the sanitary
board is doing all II thinks ought to
be done. in matters of which ii has
jurisdiction, for the protection of the
health Of the people, but whatever 1t
does it should do because it is its duty
to do It, and because the public welfare
require it TO be DONE and not for the
purpose Of quieting the newspapers
and public clamor.

WHY His Nose WINS Red.

A man from Mexico. Jacques Forbes
by name, at the Calf House last night,
claims to have a typical mother-in-
law, inflicted with that strange and
almost universal womanly failing of
asking promiscuous questions, says the
Louisville Herald
ut was only few weeks ago." said
Mr.. Forbes, that a dilapidated-look-
ing tramp, with a long, strikingly red
nose-one of these all ablaze noses
applied at the back door of my mother
in-law's house for food.
Sure said my mother-in-law, in
response to his request for food. "I'll
give you something to eat, but my
good man, won't you please tell me
what makes your nose so very
red?"
" Not the least objection, madam
replied the tramp, 1T is simply
blooming with pride that it doesn't
stick itself into other peoples bust
ness. Good day, madam "

1.-THE OLD SCRATCH"
How the Evil One Came to BE Popu-
larlY known as "The Old Scratch"

One of the many familiar names of
his satanic majesty is The Old
Scratch" It is undoubtedly due to
the fact that scratching is so disagree
able that people thought it no worse
than the evil one. A scalp full of
dandruff keeps one scratching all the
time; not only disagreeable but con-
sidered very inelegant in polite society
AS il should be-because one ought
to keep the scalp so clean that It
would not itch. To cure the scalp of
dandruff effectively use Newbro's
Herpicide. II kills the germ that ere
ates the dandruff, which is prelimi-
nary to falling hair, and, finally. bald
ness. No other hair preparation kills
the dandruf germ. Herpicide also is
a very delightful and effective hair
dressing. Sold by leading druggists

WHY SYMPATHY Is WITH THE
JAPANESE.

In numerous publications recently
the statement has appeared that the
Russians pretend to be unable to I'M
derstand why it is that sympathy I'm
this country is with Japan in the war
that is going on between them and
the Japanese. OF course, they can
not be ignorant of the fact that they
this country and other Powers TO evac-
uate Manchuria. Neither are they
ignorant of the fact that they have
done their utmost to drive all for
eign trade out of Manchuria, except
that which they themselves control.
At the beginning of the Boxer
movement the trade of this country,
especially of the Southern states, was
very large in Manchuria. From
Southern cotton mills went vast guam
ian market The Russians have
thrown all sorts of instructions in
the way of this trade. In fact, they
have practically destroyed it. Large
American houses at Manchurian ports
have been compelled to close out their
business. This destruction of Ameri-
can trade was accomplished in ways
that made it practically impossible for
our State Department to interfere.
In an interview, which we publish
elsewhere, DR.. w. F. Walker, who
for twenty-five years was a mission
airy in Northern China, tells just how
our trade has been driven out Of Man
churia. Evidently he understands the
situation thoroughly, since he talks
like a man well acquainted with his
subject. He points out that Japan
has never made an attempt to shut
out foreign trade from any territory
controlled by her. that, in fact, she
has always welcomed American trade
and American traders. If she should
succeed in driving Russia out of Man
churia this country would be one of
the chief beneficiaries of her war with
Russia. She would open that coun-
try to the trade of every other coun-
try.
Under the circumstances it isn't
strange that the sympathy not only
of this, but of nearly every other,
commercial nation is with Japan. And
it is but natural it should be. Man
churia is a great country. Her 20
OOO,0 900 inhabitants are the most Wig
orous and the most progressive of
China. If she were blessed with peace
she would very soon double her pop
ulation and wealth.
Her trade is certainly of great value
to this country. 1t is part of Rus
ria's programme to grab all of the
Manchurian trade for herself. Rus
STA cannot compete with this coun-
try or Great Britain for the trade, and
hence she adopts a policy that COM
pels American. British and German
trades to get out of there. OF course,
this condition of affairs is we'll under
stood by the Powers, and therefore it
wouldn't be at all strange IL some of
them should find a pretext for lend
ing Japan a helping hand should she
be in need of assistance.

WHAT'S THE GOOD OF THE
1OARDs

OF course a State Board of Health
with $1,000 secretary and no appro-
priation may be able to do some serv-
ice to the public but it seems to us
that it isn't going to do a great deal.
1t isn't possible for the board to do
much without money, and who is going
to furnish that? The bill that has been
killed appropriated for the boards use
$4,000, but the Legislature evidently
thought it would be a waste of money
to make the appropriation. So we have
a $4,000 secretary of the board with few
duties of real service to the state to
perform. If the board isn't to have
funds with which to work. when a de-
mand for its services arises. why re-
tain the office of secretary? Why not
abolish the institution altogether ?
When the bill creating the board was
under consideration it was thought a
state board would be helpful in pre-
venting the spread of smallpox when
the disease appeared in the state, but
it is apparent that if the board should
take any action at all there would be
expenses. Clearly, the board isn't go
ing to do the work required of it and
pay whatever expenses it may incur in
the service of the state.
1t is possible that we may not I'M
derstand the situation exactly, but it
seems to us that the board ought to
have something to work with or else
the institution should be abolished
Maintaining salaried secretary
doesn't accomplish the object for which
d State Board of Health was created

1t has now been several days since
Mr.. Kipling's latest poem, about

print, during which time editors and
literary critics have been wrestling
with it to find out what it means.
A consensus of opinion up to this
time seems to be that its principal
meaning is an increase of some few
hundred dollars in Mr.. Kipling's bank
account
