SIMPLE JOY.
It Feels Mighty Good to Be Clear Of
Coffee Ais.

A Massachusetts woman had been a
lifelong coffee drinker and was slow
to suspect that il was this habit that
was making her life miserable.
The knowledge came to her at last
fortunately. before il was too late

the use of the old kind of coffee was

and shall never give II up willingly.
The first intimation Of breaking
health that I had was when my stom-
ach gave out, my digestion was so inn
paired that ! had no appetite for break
fast and but little for any other meal
Then / became the victim of sleepless-
ness. and arose in the morning tired
and languid and utterly unfit for the
duties OF the day before me. 1 grew
so nervous that / could not hold my
pen. my flesh fell away and l be-
came painfully thin.

doctor gave me in finding out what was
really the matter with me. for after

A WIDER TENTH STREET.

ABSURD BALLOT LAWS.

II HE approaching elections are serv-
u ing to call attention anew to the
fact--for 1t is a fact-that ballot laws
are framed by politicians who above
an else desire nothing but straight
party tickets TO go into the box.
The Australian system was hailed
with approval by the friends OF a pure
ballot. but after American legislator
have hacked at it and juggled with its
provisions for a dozen or more years.
it has become an instrument for har-
assing the independent voter. and fire.
quently for recording public dissent.
II the ingenuity and honesty OF the
American people were to be estimated
by our ballot systems as they exist to-
day We should be set down as a ras-
cally or an imbecile people.
But, as we said. ballot laws are made
by machines and for machines. And
almost always when in emergencies the
natural and logical thing to do is dis
covered. some provision OF tile law
arises to prevent.
In New York, for instance, some two
weeks prior TO the election a candi-
date withdraws, and under the party
rules another candidate is substituted.
Does the name OF the latter go on the
ballot? Not by jugful2
The law says it would be a terrible
thing to place the name where It be-
longs. So the name OF the candidate
who has withdrawn is printed. and
thousands viii support him against his
protest. And those who wish to sup
port the candidate their party has Sc

An impatient man hurried into To-
cal restaurant around the noon hour the
other day and despite the fact that
there were a number of men just as
hungry as he and as anxious TO be
waited upon. who had arrived before
him. he wanted his "sinker" or two at
once. The walters proceeded to calm

came In before he did
Finally the impatient one, after hav-
ing waited in his estimation about an

The Public Ledger is in many respects
an admirable newspaper, but its con-
stant reference to its lofty motives
and its absolute impartiality is
somewhat tiresome. There is a GER
tain taste In such matters that ap-
plies to a newspaper as IL applies to
an individual. We have seen both
men and newspapers which prided,
themselves so much on being un-
biased that at times they gave their
enemies the preference. After All,
men like good red blood and a strong
dash of human nature. This sitting
ON pedestal is an attitude too frigid
TO inspire enthusiasm.

INCREASING ElRE RATES.

4 y THE arguments given for the
= raising Of fire insurance rates, cer-
tain propositions are not convincing.
Farm houses. barns and their contents
we are told are not good risks because
of their isolation. In case of a FIRE
there is no provision for extinguishiug
1T. as it is remote from fire companies
and fire apparatus
This argument sounds plausible. but
in cities and towns the opposite argu-
ment is used. As districts become
more congested. this congestion is given
las an excuse for raising the rate. And
yet the greater the congestion the
'greater amount OF property there ls in
sured. and the greater the aggregate
premiums.
man owns shop OF two stories
which is valued at $4,000 in which he
carries stock Of $4,000. Upon this
sum he pays insurance. Then he de-
cides to improve his property and
build additional stories. His property
is now worth $4,000 and his stock has
been increased to 100000 His insur-
ance has been doubled. and the pre-
miums have doubled.
Is there additional risk? Yes, in a
lsense, but there is double payment to
cover that risk.
II must be remembered too that as
districts become more congested great
er precautions are taken TO have appa-
ratus and organizations to fight fires;
and since most persons are more in
terested in preventing the destruction
OF their property than the insurance
companies can possibly be, the owners
as a rule are not likely to be careless
and Indifferent.
one Of the most convincing argu-
ments for raising rates is that the
companies can fix the rates and the
individual pays what is demanded OF
goes uninsured.
