excitedly when one of them, raising his
voice, said, THAT fool, the kaiser' In
stantly he was touched on the shoulder
by the omnipresent policeman. who told
him that he was under arrest.
Arrested! What for?" asked the citi-
zen.
For lese majestic. Did you not, just
now say, THAT fool, the kaiser?"
The gentleman under arrest and his
friend argued with the conscientious de-
render of his kaisers name, and turned
the matter o. as a joke, saying, But
there are other kaisers; there is the
kaiser of Austria. the kaiser of Russia.
and the kaiser Menelik of Abyssinia -
But 1t was of no avail. With a wise and
ueprecating shake of his head. the po-
hceman answered: Yes, yes! There are
other kaisers, but you could have meant
no other, for no other kaiser is such q

Value Of tho Weather Man.

In spite of the standing jokes about
the weather man, 1t is probable that
for every dollar spent on the weather
bureau $40 are saved, says Country
Life in America. At the time of the
Mississippi flood of 1897 $15,000,000
worth of live stock and other property
was saved as a result Of warnings is-
sued week ahead. Signals displayed
for n single hurricane have detained
in port vessels valued, with their car
goes. at $20,0OO,0OO. The West Indian
stations, established In 1898, inform us
OF hurricanes as soon as they begin.
The course of the hurricane that
caused the Galveston food was ch;rted
for a week before It struck our shores
for hurricanes move slowly. Eighty
five per cent. of the forecasts row
come true, and by the aid of rural
free delivery 25.0OOOOO forecast cards
were distributed last year to farmers,
many OF whom could not have had

AGAINST THE PUBLIC INTEREST.
overxeaIous Refornners Work for Law
Aoajnst Proprietary Medicines.

AQuIn1k "Ce'S"Sss
Schemes to diminish or destroy
the sale of proprietary medicines are
constantly being devised by interested
parties. Every now and then some
jealous reformer comes to the front
with the demand for law to require
every package OF proprietary medi-
cine to be labeled with printed
statement of the formula showing
Just how 1t is manufactured The mil
lions of people who use proprietary
medicines seem to be satisfied but
the man with mania for regulating
the affairs of other people or who has
some personal interest to serve is
the one who agitates the proposition.
To a person who has never taken
time to consider 1t, such proposition
| may seem reasonable enough; yet it
Is In fact nothing more nor less than
| scheme to compel the manufacture
ers to put their trade throughout the
entire country at the mercy of every
commercial pirate who might choose
to food the market with limitations of
their goods.
Under such conditions the incen-
tive for the original manufacturer TO
advertise his goods would be practi-
cally destroyed. for the money spent
on advertising would inure mainly 10
the benefit of the pirates and imita-
tors. Without advertising. the public
would receive litt.e information In
regard to the medicine, and all future
sales would be greatly impaired II
not wholly destroyed. 1t is mainly by
| judicious advertising that the knowl-
edge OF proprietary medicines is
brought to the public, Nothing is
more certain than that millions of peo-
pie have found relief at a compara-
lively small expense by the use of
some remedy first called to their
! notice through newspaper advertising
Why, then. should the manufacturer
Of a meritorious proprietary remedy
| be compelled by law TO practically
| destroy his business as n condition of
being allowed to carry 1t on? Yet
that is exactly what these formula
bills mean.-Exchange.
