NEW YoRk,s NEW FLAG LAW

New York State has ii new nag law
which advertisers in that common
wealth will have TO closely watch until
they get used to its provisions. 1t is
known as the Wainwright measure and
amends the penal code in relation to
the Dissertation or mutilation or inn
proper use of the United States flag
or The flag OF New York State.
The low declares guilty of mis-
dcmeanor any person who in any
manner, for exhibition or display,
snail place OF cause to he placed any
word, figure, mark, picture. design,
drawing, or any advertisements of any
nature ulon any flag, standard, color
or ensign OF the United States of
America or State flag of this State
or ensign, or Shall expose or cause 70
he exposed to public view any such
Has. standard, color or ensign, upon
which shall have been printed, paint.
Cd or otherwise placed or to which
shall be attached, appended, affixed. or
annexed, any word, figure, mark, pie
ture, design, or drawing, or any add
vertisenent of any nature
Insofar as the measure is designed
10 prevent the Dissertation Of the
United States flag by its use as an
advertising medium. it will meet the
approval OF most intelligent persons,
but If it is used to permit oiiicious and
narrowminded funlicys To- take such
action as barred l;verybody's Magazine
from Boston because the American
nag occupied place in il Fourth OF
July covcr-paSe design, the measure
will be ridiculous. In dealing with all
such matters the law should endeavor
TO strike happy mean between the
TWO extremes.

"The Light House Robbery" which
will appear at the Elks theater on
next Tuesday night, October 3, is a
we'll known attraction that hardly
needs any Introduction to the theater
going public of this city, as the play
has left splendid reputation from
it's last appearance here. The compa-
ny at present presenting the drama
is exceedinly strong, every one being
selected for their peculiar fitness for
the parts assigned. Those who have
not seen this we'll known drama, and
they are few and far between, as it
has been successfully presented in
nearly every city in the country,
should not fail to take advantage of
it's visit to our city and enjoy the
quiet pathos and humor that runs
throughout the play. This charming
comedy will be produced with all it's
wealth of special scenery at the Elks
theater on October 8. The Tolson
company, owing to having to lay of at
Little Rock Tuesday night for the Al
H. Wilson company, will present "The
Light House Robbery" which is their
feature play, and for which they carry
special scenery. Prices 10, 20 and 80
cents.

TOO CLEVER TO WORRY.

eve invite our ills, and are loyal
hosts when they arrive
"'Good will is better than repsin
tablets to aid Digestion"
Waves of fear thought cause eri-
denies Of disease.
"Anger in the soul corresponds to
the whirlwind in nature, and does
its devastation in the same way"
'The kernel of nervousness is sell
fshness."
"Obstacles are opportunities"
"There is no fate against us but
the fate Of our weak choice"
These epigrams contain the es-
sence of the teaching of one of
the bright women of America-Mrs
Vance CLANCY.
Another fad?
Let us see. This woman being
asked at the close of one of her lee
lures. "Do you ever worry?" replied,
"NO, | am too clever" Which was not
only a clever answer, but a practical
point of view.
Mrs. CLANCY knows that worry.
over-exertion, fear, etc. influence not
only the mind, but also the body. No
fact is better established by expert
ment than that agitation tention, an
ser, etc, actually changes the
structure of the body, affects it's
weight. temperature, ETC., and it's Ca
racity to resist. In a multitude of
cases disease is mentally produced.
The people ought to know these
fact. so we'll known to students of
the mind
And especially should they know
how to avoid worry and fear and
anger in their effects.
In single word, the first great
remedy is Relaxation. At some hour
during each day unstring the bow
strings. Relax both body and mind.
Give the muscles and nerves a COM
plete rest. Then relax the mind. Drop
every care for few miutes. Stop try
ing to do. Content yourself to be.
Then practice deep breathing. Any
body's method will do, provided it
fills every lung cell and sends the
diaphram as far down as it will go.
There is nothing new in all this.
And there is nothing fanciful about it.
1t is simply being "clever" enough to
take care of yourself.
If Mrs. Chaney's simple philosophy
were followed by more people there
would be less disease and misery and
crime and more happiness in the
world.

The Bio Minstrel Show.

Gus Sun. the we'll known minstrel
magnate and his superb company of
burnt cork artists are scheduled to
appear at the Ellls theater Saturday,
October Z. The company this season
is without question the finest organi-
zation of it's kind in the minstrel
world There is nothing with the
show that is old except the name. Ev-
cry feature, song, dance and act is
new and ahead of the times. The
program is the most complete and su-

audience with laughter. Without a
doubt the great Kylers' high wire Cir

ceptionally strong chorus. The seen
cry is new departure entitled "a

Chas. 3. HanforG's Tour.

Charles B. Hanfori's tour opened
September 26, at Newport News, Va.
His repertory includes those standard
plays with which he has been for
years inseparably identified, with one
such production, such as it is his GUS
tom to make each season. Mr.. Han
ford will be seen as a tragedian in
"Othello," as character Interpreter
in "The Merchant of Venice" and as a
comedian in "The Tanning of the
Shrew.' In accordance with his GUS
tom of making at least one new pro-
duction each season, Mr.. Hanford will
also present the romantic classic en-
somar." 1t is doubtful whether any
series of plays could have been select
ed better qualified to reveal at their
best the various phases of Mr.. Han
fcrd's exceptional abilities. He has
made the classic drama his especial
study and the entire United States his
territory for the exploitation of the
greatest works that the drama has
produced. In cities too numerous for
him to reach in a single tour, cities
which dot the map from ocean to
ocean and from Canada to the Gulf,
Mr. Hanford is esteemed as the rep
resentative Interpreter of certain roles
which have tested the powers of the
greatest actors of the world.

THERMOMETERS ORIGIN.

According to Sir Samuel Wilkes,
Fahreheit constructed his thermom-
eter from one made many years be-
fore by Sir Isaac Newton "In the
transactions of the Royal Society of
17O1 will be found the paper written
by Sir Isaac Newton, who was at that
time secretary to the society,"" says
Sir Samuel. "He invented the instru-
ment for measuring the degre of heat
in fluids by taking a tube and filling
it with linseed oil. On this he mark
ed the freezing point as zero by put
ting the tube in ice, and in the same
way he marked the point when placed
in boiling water. The very awkward
scale which we now use is evidently
that of Newton; for, the decimal sys-
tenn not being then in use, he took
the number of twelve to denote the
heat of the body This he found, and
made it the starting point of his
scale both upward and downward. It
was some time after this that. for
convenience's sake, the degrees were
divided in two, and thus the body
heat was twenty-four above zero and
the boiling point fifty-three. When,
many years afterwards, Fahrenheit
made his instrument and used mer-
curry instead of linseed oil, which was
far more convenient: he again diyid-
ed these degrees into four; so if the
number be multiplied accordingly. we
have PIP for the boiling point and
nlnety-six fer the body heat Fab.
renheit, finding that he could get a
lower temperature than freezing
made this point zero, which brought
the numer eight of Newton's to thirty.
two of Fahrenheit. In this way the
thermometer was constructed. Awk.
ward as the scale is, yet it is histori-
cally interesting as having been made
by our own great philosopher and
formed on the basis of the heat of
the human bcdy."-Exchange.

HIGH CLASS.

A well-known New York COMPOSER
who had long felt the need of a rep-
utable firm of agents to undertake the
disposal of his compositions, read re-
Gently the advertisement of bureau
which offered to place musical and
other manuscripts with publishers.
Their charges were fairly high, and
the advertisement stated expressly
that only work "of the highest grade"
was handled by the bureau. The
composer, thinking that this was
probably the opportunity he had been
looking for, sought the address given
in the advertisement. Entering the
Offices of the concern, he found the
manager, in his shirt sleeves, sitting
at typewriter.
