The Curse of the Turf.

Lord Durham at the Gimcrack Club York, Eng.
He wanted to warn the racing public not
to pay too much attention to those writers,
and to suggest that such sporting newspa-
pers as professed to uphold the morality
of the turf should prove their good inten-
lions by very desirable reform, and that
was simply to refuse to publish what were
known as "tipsters advertisements
There was not a trainer in England who
could not tell them what a curse these tip
sters and touts were among their stable
lads. They attempted to suborn them and
to bride them to betray stable secrets. Out
sders had no more right to obtain by Illicit
means information on these matters than
burglar had to break into a house and steal
property. The Alpha and Omega of the
tipster's trade was misrepresentation.

DRINKERS BARRED.
No Political Offices in Indiana for
Those Who Take a Nip.

indianapolis Correspondence Chicago Record Herald
The man who drinks cannot hold an APP
pointive office under Gov. Hanly.
He declares that large corporations rule
against men who have formed the liquor
habit, and that this policy will be adopted
in respect to positions within the gift of
the executive.
1t is not a question of how little or how
much a man drinks, but If he drinks at all
he cannot receive recognition at the hands
of the governor.
A man called on the governor today in
the interest of an applicant for an aD-
pointive Office. He spoke of his friends

HINTS TO BEGINNERS.
First Aid to the Owner Of New Auto
mobile.

From Life.
One of the first things required of the
genuine automobflist is that he mustn't
know anything about it And the second
is like unto the first, which is that man
should disregard his neighbors as much as
he loves himself. These things being I'M
derstood in the beginning, your standing
among the fraternity is assured Here
are, in addition Few minor matters that
need attention: When you start out, be
sure that your mixture is correct: Put
about five gallons of IS gasoline into your
tank, and add to this couple of highballs
for yourself. You will be surprised how
much better the machine viii run. Upon
the extreme care and minuteness with
which you examine your auto before start
ing out will depend the almost absolute
certainty of breaking down. Don't miss
anything, therefore, from the steering APP
paratus to the spark plug. One of the
greatest things about automobiling is the
way it trains the senses. BY practice you
Will get so that you can pass through the
most beautiful scenery without being
aware of it, thus acquiring that superb
concentration necessary. And you will
soon be able to detect any Unusual smell
and locate it al once.
Be sure and buy the most complete set
of tools known, and then, before starting
out, take from them the one tool you will
most certainly need, and leave it carefully
behind you. After while this will be-
come second nature, so that you won't
even have to think about it. Remember
that to keep your auto in the best condi-
ton, you must lubricate it constantly. To
do this successfully, use, say, one-half as
much cylinder oil on the machinery as you
use on yourself. BY and by you can tell
by the way you feel whether everything
is in good running shape or not. Do not
be discouraged If your carburetter gives
out, your batteries lay down on you, your
connecting rod refuses to connect or you
are confronted by missing link in your
chain You are, of course, able to support
yourself in luxury and discomfort, or you
wouldn't have a motor car, anyway; so re-
member, that many a man who has more
money than you has had the same things
happen to him. Always carry with you the
St James version of the Bible. For your
purpose it is far better than the revised
version. The expressions are more terse.
And finally. when you have anything hap
pen to you. keep it secret from the pres
ence of your enemies. But when you lie,
lie openly--just as If you believed it your
self.

OF INTEREST TO WOMEN

In a Pennsylvania town where the Friends
abound a prim old Quaker spnster one day
attended the marriage of her granddaughter,
a young person, who had in the course of
his twenty-one years received much needed
discipline at her hands.
The old lady was at her best on this feS-
tive occasion, and at pause in the wedding
breakfast her young relative looked over
at her with beguiling smile.
'"Tel US why thee never married, Aunt
Patience" he said, teasingly.
THAT is soon told, William said the
old Quakeress, calmly. 'It was because
was not as easy pleased as thy wife was.'-

1t has become positive that lingerie gowns
for the coming season will be made of all
over lace or English embroidery on linen,
when a more substantial eject is desired.
The costumes designed for the early fittings
to southern resorts have shown a trend in
this direction, and each succeeding model
sent over from Paris confirms this belief.
Dressmakers are, of course, eager enough
to see such models receiving their due IN
the way of artistic duplication, but it is not
always the case that what modistes desire

best models deserve

Rheumatism

energy, and fail to filter the uric
acid from the blood; this acid at

Joints, producing Inflammation,

To cure Rheumatism, then, you
