GOOD SPIRITS.

Good spirits don't all come from
Kentucky. Their main source is
the liver-and all the fine spirits
ever made in the Blue Grass State
could not remedy a bad liver or the
hundred-and-one i'll effects it pro-
duces. You can't have good
spirits and a bad liver at the same
time. Your liver must be in fine
condition if you would feel buoy
ant, happy and hopeful, bright Of
eye, light Of step, vigorous and sue
cessful in your pursuits. You can
put your liver in fine condition by
using GREEN'S August Flower the
greatest of all medicines for the
liver and stomach and a certain
cure for dyspepsia or Indigestion.
1t has been a favorite household
remedy for over thirty-fve years.
August Flower will make your
liver healthy and active and thus
insure you liberal supply of

BOOK GLUTTONY NOW A FAD
Lord Rosebery Elucidates on Wise
Reading and the Sin of Bor.
rowing Books.

In speech made at the opening
of a new Carnegie library in Lon
don Lord Rosebery said: Knowl-
edge is power, but that does not
necessarily mean book wnowl-
edge. Book knowledge is only
part Of the knowledge that cOnsti-
tutes power. Books are excellent
things; it would be high treason to
deny that, coming here to open a
free library; but a glutton of books
is just as bad as a surfeit of any
thing else, and there are a great
many excellent people in this world
who spend all their days in read
ing and who are of no use to them
selves or to anybody else.
The fact is that an appetite Tor
reading without digesting is as un.
wholesome as any other form Of
gluttony The man of vigorous
life among men would beat the
man of books always and at every
thing in this world. Libraries,
however, give them the tools with
which they can work out their own
salvation.
Mr.. Gladstone, by the aid of I'M
mense industry, was perhaps the
only man ! have ever known who
was able to adjust the balance be-
tween his life of study and his life
Of action satisfactorily to himself
and to others.
But books can also be an end in
themselves. The man with happy
taste for books can come in, tired
and soured though he may be, and
fall into the arms of some great
author who would raise him from
the ground and take him into a
new heaven and a new earth, where
he would forget his bruises and
rest his limbs and return to the
world a fresh and happy man.
No limitation of means can in
these days excuse anybody from
not buying books, and we must dis
tinguish between books to be read
and books to be bought. There
are two further classes of books
the books that are borrowed
from friends and returned and the
books that are borrowed and not
returned. The non-returning Of
books has ended more friend
ships and terminated more affec-
tions than any other cause Of
which am cognizant. The man
who borrows one volume out of a
set of volumes and never returns
Il is a man who should be treated
like vermin-trapped or shot at
sight, or any other of the punish
! ments which might be extended to
the lowest and vilest Of mankind.

FAX FROM THE FIRING LINE
Place of the Commanding General in
a Great Battle To-Day Is Is
Miles from Front.

To-day circumstances place
commander completely out OF
sight of his army, says Scribner's.
He is usually located at least ten
Of Is miles from the firing line,
and in many instances is even far
ther away. He sits in room,
where radiate telephone and tele-
graph lines to the remotest por
ton of the field, placing him
in instantaneous communication
with his principal subordinates.
The famous painting of Napo-
leon at Austerlitz represents, i'll
the popular eye, commanding
general directing Il great battle.
But it belongs to the warfare OF
the past. The ARTIST who aspires
to depict the direction OF 4 mouern
battle must show d man seated al
a table on which Is spread Euge
map dotted with lttle hags indi
eating the location OF the oppos-
ing forces, with an ordinary desk
telephone at his elbow. In an ad-
joining room is a switchboard,
where sit alert operators ready
to connect the commander with
any of the field Headquarters.
From this room also comes the
steady clicking of a score of tele-
graph instruments, busily receiy-
ing and sending messages.
But for the military uniforms of
the messengers and the going and
coming of staff officers, the man at
the table might be a stock oper-
ator directing, through his brok
ers, deal in steel or railroad Sc
curities. Even the stenographer
at his elbow is not lacking, but sits
quietly taking messages under
dictation, to be transmitted pres
emily by telegraph. Other officers
copy these messages and file them
away, after putting them under
time recording stamp, to show
the hour they were sent, so that
afterward delinqueneies may be
located and responsibilities fixed.
Thus, apart from the excite
ment and horrors of the battle
field, a general sits at a desk and
calmly directs the battle. He
hears that his attack has been re-
pulsed and that reenforcements
are needed here, that ammunition
is running low there, that this di-
vision has been cut to pieces, that
those troops have been two days
without food, and so on. along his
40 miles of front. and takes his
measures accordingly. This pic
ture is not fanciful. With due al
lowance for the fallibility of all
human devices when subjected to
the strain of abnormal conditions.
it is substantially corr""'

For all his frank advocacy of hon

politicians who steal The politi-
clan who steals" he says, is worse

grand opportunities all around for
a man with political pull, there's
no excuse for stealin' cent The
politicians of 1905 are as a class no
worse than them or 1885. The old
timers had nothin' TO steal, that's all.
In those days a city could count its

But a big city like New York or
Philadelphia or Chicago might be
compared to sort of Garden OF

It's an orchard full Of beautiful ap-
pie trees. One of them has got big
sign on it, marked: Penal Code

there are in big city"
Certainly PlunkItt has gathered
enough of them in his time to know
He has been in politics for forty
years, and in office about as long.
For twenty-five of them he has been
