Mayor Is Tired of His Job,

A delegation of Republican politi
clans called upon Mayor William B,
Hayes of Pittsburg and sounded him
as to his willingness to be candi
late again. Not for me-" was the de!
ctded reply. II wouldn't accept this
job for another three years if the sal
airy were raised to $4,000 a year
Before he became mayor Mr.. Hayes
was in tho lumber business and he
says that that life is strenuous
enough for him. When he was elect
ed mayor ne appointed a number Of
his friends to good positions. 1t seems
that about nine-tenths of them have
laid down" on him his troubles have
caused his brown locks to turn white.
The mayor is going back to the lum.
Der business just as soon as he can
get out.

TALKS TO vAssAR STUDENTS.
President Taylor Makes Vigorous At
tack on Evils.

In his baccalaureate sermon to Vas
sar students President James M. Tay-
Tor deplored the popularity of litera-
ture which initiates against the mar
riage law, upholds divorce and even
favors too free notion of morals as
one Of the dangers of the age. An
other subject on which he expressed
himself vigorously was the action of
congress in voting money for sectarian
schools among the Indians. He de-
clared that the state must not be al
lowed to recognize any church as such.
The graduates were advised by DR..
Taylor to set themselves against such
union of any kind between church and
state. At the same time he main
tanned that education without a spir-
itual side and fixed moral leanings is
failure and absence of religious
teaching in the public schools a dan
ger. Ethics and morals, he said,
could be taught without introducing
religious discussion.

The scene in st. Georges chapel
was brilliant. Shortly after the guests
were seated the bridegroom made his
appearance, accompanied by his sup
porters, Princes Eugene and William
of Sweden. The bridegroom was fol-
lowed by the royal party, including
King Edward, Queen Alexandria, Prin-
cess Victoria, the crown prince and
crown princess of Sweden, the duchess
of Connaught, and the prince of Wales.
The bride, on the arm of her father,
was met at the entrance by the lord

Princess Patricia of Connaught, her
sister; Princess Victoria of Batten-
berg, Princess Mary of Wales, and
Princess Beatrice of Saxe-Coburg.

pure white Irish point lace, poised

Gunnery In the American Navy.

A gunner on the United States bat
tleship Kentucky, operating a five
inch gun, has hit a target 21x16 feet
in size, at a distance of nearly mile
thirteen times in one minute, missing
only one of his fourteen shots. IF
the squadron had been firing at an
enemy there would have been no en-.
envy in half an hour" said Rear AID
miral Robley d. Evans in praise OF
this fine work. Three other, gunners
did equally well. 1t cost Uncle Sam
a good deal Of money to enable its
naval gunners to acquire such skill
but it is also necessary to produce
men who are capable of such work
as is done in this country and Japan

WHY THEY ARE HAPPY
TWO NOTABLE REC0vERIEs FROM
EXTREME DEBILITY,
Husbands Strength Had Been Waning for
Three Years, Wife Sufferer from
Female Weakness

"My strength had dwindled so that l
couldn't apply myself to my business
with any snap but was tired and listless
all the time. " said Mr.. Goldstein.

my days work, and when got up in

had awful headaches too. and my kid.
neys got out of order and caused me to
have severe pains in the back. At one
time became SO feeble that l could not
stir from bed for three weeks"
MIR. Goldstein is young man and had
then but recently established q home of
his own. His anxieties were increased
by the fact that his wife was far from
being robust. Mrs. Goldstein says:
For two years had been ill most of
the time. Sometimes was confined to
bed for weeks in succession under ply
sician's care. had headaches, kidney
trouble, pain about the heart and many
more uncomfortable symptoms con-
nected with that weakness to which my
sex is peculiarly subject"
Trouble had invaded this household
and settled i'll it in just the years that
ought to be the very happiest. Physicians
could not tell them how to get rid of it.
81 was utterly discouraged, !" said Mr..
Goldstein. "Then the urgency of some
friends led me to try blood and nerve
remedy which was said to be wonder
fully successful. Within month there
were unmistakable signs of improvement
in my condition, and within q year /
was completely well. Through the use
of DR.. Williams Pink Pills have now
as good health as ever had in my life"
Mrs. Goldstein adds: "The wonderful
effect that DR.. Williams Pink Pills had
i'll the case of my husband led me to try
them and they helped me even more
quickly than they did him. One box
made me decidedly better and o few
months treatment cured me-"
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are the best
tonic and regulator, they make pure,
rich blood and when there is general
weakness and disorder that is what tile
system needs. Mr.. and Mrs. II. Goldstein
live at 3S Cove street, East Boston, Mass.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by
druggists everywhere.

THINK COURT LACKS poMP.
London Tradesmen Make Complaint Of
Their Kinu,

nelr Ming,
King Edwards reign has by no
means brought JOY to the hearts of
London tradespeople. A leading trade
paper laments the fact that great
portion of the trosseau of Princess
Margaret of Connaught has been pur'
chased in Paris. 1t states that she will
be the first bride of the reigning house
to wear any but British-made we'd
ding dress. The same paper, referring
to the evening courts now being held
by the king and queen, declares that
they are not so good for business as
the late queen Victorias afternoon
drawing-rooms, because in the latter
the dresses of all who attended were
seen, whereas now the debutantes and
those presenting them are the only
ladies who pass the throne. The
majority, therefore, do not trouble
themselves about new dresses, as they
are not in evidence.

Memento of Mother.ln.I am

A question of identity yesterday in
the Children's Court brought out a
peculiar bit of evidence. The witness,
a middle-aged man, produced from an
inside pocket the silver nameplate of
a coffin. The evidence was accepted
as conclusive.
"But why do you carry that thing?"
asked the Justice.

Most newly married people expert

of a young wife who, in the midst Of
tn discussion, was asked by her hus-
band which she considered ought to
give in first-the man, who was des-
tined to be master of the woman, or
the woman, who was created for the
man? The fair combatant settled the
matter with a kiss as she replied:

but the one who loves the most"

POINTED PARAGRAPHS.

Cupid never gives a guarantee.
The hand of fate is often bobtail
flush.
Virtue usually wears last years
clothes.
Wait for your worries; but not for
your work.
1t is easy to be rigorous without
being righteous.
Faith never had any need to dream
about the future.
The self-satisfed people are gener-
ally the happiest.
A fool can attract quite as much
attention as a wise man.
A necessary evil must be the kind
that money is the root of.
Conscience isn't in it with the hui
initiation of being found out
In matters of opinion the beaten
track is most likely to lead astray.
In marriage a man takes the fatal
plunge; a woman simply puts her
foot in it.
When man makes fool of him
self he generally does it to please
some woman.
Perhaps truth is stranger than fc-
ton because we don't get so well ac-
quainted with it.
Men believe in the power of Christ
because he believes in the possibilities
Of men.-Henry F. Cope in Chicago

too late
