got too bad headache to come down
 He was up the stairs four steps at . time.
 You look it." he said. What on earth have you been doing with your- self? You look ten years older than you did when went away this morn- ing"
 The tears welled up in her eyes and ran over.
 "I've got enough to make me look older" she replied, looking at him with all the suspicion she could muster.
 He did not catch her meaning Well, I've got something" he cried. "that will make you well in three mins utes. Come here."
 He lifted her up bodily in his arms and carried her down the stairs. With a roaring laugh he set her on her feet in the hall. He opened the hall door wide and took her by the hand.
 Look" he cried. You won't have to walk any more in the park. I've been a whole month making up my mind to buy this thing"
 He led her down the steps. A mo- ment afterward she was perched up on the seat of a red runabout Her eyes were shining and she had a very. much ashamed feeling in her heart
 Funny thing" said her husband. as they drove along at a goodly pace. "A woman sold me this machine. There's several of them in town now, demon- strators, you know"
 "I'll never tell him." she said to mo confidentially last night, what an idiot I was!"-Chicago Chronicle.

book. We read instinctively the charac- ter of an individual in the lines of the face, the expression of the eyes. the con- tour of the mouth. Here is what crit ical study of Mir. Sage's face reveals, as seen by George Nox Mccain:
 "The eye of Russell Sage denotes truthfulness; it also marks a man of great ambition and of great desire to make money. It is the eye of one who has exceedingly keen perceptive facul- ties. It is also the eye of man who is instinctively religious. This may seem . rerfiarkable deduction, but no one trait expressed in Russell Sage's face is more distinctly outlined than that of inherent religious feeling. It is shown in the deep-set eye, the width of the middle ear, the length of face from the tip of the nose to the top of the forehead.
 Russell Sage is slow to anger and his eye is the reverse of a boaster. The coarse, bushy eyebrows indicate coarse. rugged nature; not an unlovely nature, crookedness. of lying. It is face which marks keenness. the driving of hard bar gains, and great will power.
 Russell Sage has been ambitious. He has also been a dreamer. The success he has achieved in acquiring great wealth indicates that his ambitions and his dreams have been along that line. A deep-set eye marks the dreamer; the eyes close together, one who can keep secrets. Oddly enough, too. whatever men may say of his companionable quail ities, Russell Sage has always had de- sire to please and win the regard of men.
 According to the pysiognomist. if his outward life has not always indicated these traits. it is because he has per- mitted circumstances to thwart his nat ural desires. All told. Russell Sage has . good face. albeit there shows in 1t pre- dominance of coarse lines which might have been softened had Russell Sage cultivated literature, music or the kindred arts"
 But he had no time for this. Newspa- per readers will remember the storm of indignation which swept the country . year ago over q magazine article by Mir. Sage. in which he opposed the an nual vacation of the toiler. And ret Mir. Sage only voiced his firm belief when he expressed himself in these words:
 T think the vacation habit is the out growth of abnormal. or distorted. busi- ness methods. I fail to see anything L. gitimate in it"

IS INTENDED TO SCARE.
Fuel Pipe Men Sum Up the Standards
Recent Announcement.

Chanute, Kan, May 24.-On pro-
ducers here are inclined to be skept-
ical about the announcement of the
Standard Oil company that it will be-
gin taking all Kansas and Territory
oil within the next few days Pro-
dUcers here call to mind letters from
Standard people written two years ago
saying oil would go to 81 a barrel,
and they cannot remember when the
promise was ever complied with. The
producers in the Chanute and Hum
boldt districts see in this latest move
of the Standard an attempt to make
sentiment against the fuel oil pipe line
and refinery scheme.
Investigation reveals that the Stan
dard company is not taking any more
oil in this district than it has been
taking for the last four months The
pumping station at the foot of North
Evergreen avenue is still idle and the
men who were laid off in February
torn out in February and March has
been replaced. None of the proper
ties placed on the blacklist early in
the year has been informed that its
production would be taken again.
None of the properties supplying oil
to the Standard for years has been
notified that the taking Of the Stand
ard Oil company would be increased
While there are stories that the Stand
ard is increasing its pipe line runs IN
Chautauqua county, it can be stated as
a fact that it has not increased its TAX
fngs in Neosho, Allen and Woodson
counties. The only hope for better
times lies in the promises made by the
pipe line. superintendents Of the stand
ard OIL company, and these promises
are none of them very definite.

Governor HOch is having his por-

Leon is doing the work, and he is do
ing it simply because he wants to have

Hoch says;
II am not much of a hand for big
portraits; I don't like them very we'll.
The only one I ever had made was a
big crayon portrait, and we keep it
down cellar. But this young man
asked as a special favor to him that I
sit for him. and I finally agreed to do
so. I understand that he wants to
make two or three portraits to exhibit
