 It is an interesting question, these Atwood probate cases. Lawyers of profound ability differ in their opin- ions as to the issue and the supreme court will naturally consider it with very great care. Until the supreme court says to the contrary we shall be. lieye that the law which went through all the revision tests for about a cen tury was a law. violation of which cannot be dodged by the efforts of able counsel within and without the general assembly who adopted the re- troactiye scheme to save clients that could not be saved in any other way.

FRIDAY, NOV 10, 1905.

Thomas A. Edison declares that four or five hours sleep out of the twenty four is enough for anybody. Perhaps he invented the electric light to en- able people to keep awake in accord with his theory. At any rate, it does seem as if many city people exist who do not sleep at all, judging from the noise of talk on the streets all the night long. The electric light is a good thing if not abused, but it gives less peace and quiet than the ancient candle dip.

Bows to Will of the People of Ohio
 With Clear Conscience.
 COLUMBUS, O., Nov. Ex-Governor Myron T. Herrick has given out the following statement:
 "The people of Ohio by a substantial plurality have defeated me for govern or. bow to, their will and trust that their welfare may be the only aim of the new administration.
 T discharged my duties as governor of Ohio with an eye and purpose de- voted solely to the best interests of all the people. My conscience is clear. What I did with respect to the Bran mock law was done in the interest of justice and morality and intended to strengthen that measure as temper ance law. would do the same thing over again. The unconstitutional meas ures vetoed I would veto again. The extrayagant appropriations that I de- clined to approve would again decline to approve.
 If the people of Ohio defeated me because they dlsapproved of my action with respect to those measures they acted wisely, for if I had been given 'a second term I would have been actu- ated by the same motives and would have pursued the same course when ever the occasion arose. From these same people. in whose ultimate judg- ment and sense of justice I have the profoundest faith, I bespeak for my successor that support and confidence which should always encourage the public servant, and I trust that for every exercise of an honest purpose to serve the general welfare he may re- ceive that approval to which an upright conscience is entitled"

Speaking of government control of banks, railroads and other things, a Washington writer says that he does not think the governmental inspection business is going to efeate any wild enthusiasm, especially in those sec- tions of the country where federal ex- animation of the national banks has been quickly followed by the most serious of bank failures. These fail ures show that governmental inspec. ton has not been worth much. If it had been would such thing as the re- cent development in connection with the Enterprise National bank at Ale gheny, Pa, have been possible? Noth- ing but the suicide of the cashier, who had literally turned the funds of the bank over to the band of republican grafters who control Pennsylvania, let the cat out of the bag. There had been the usual government inspection and nobody had discovered anything wrong. Politicians notes that had been accepted to the extent of seOO,OOO had never been seen by these same government examinrs. and they have as mysteriously disappeared. since Clark's suicide as if government super vision was unknown. The same sort of thing has happened a dozen times or more within the past year, and only suicides. the running away of trusted employees, or some such accident has revealed the fact that the books were even more loosely kept and the lnspec- ton of the banks affairs even more superficial than that of the insur8nee companies.

A military superstition in Russia, alone of civilized countries except Spain, requires that the surrender of an army shall be punished by a sen tence of death for the commander, which is not to be carried out. A counter sentiment in Japan requires that commander shall surrender his own life as the self-inf1icted penalty of failure in the service of his country and his emperor. Both the supersti- ton and the sentiment are remote from the reasonable temper of the occiden- tai mind, but the contrast between them Is not favorable to the Russians.

peated to others, each of them says: Il

1t will hardly be said either that
Miss Gresham is an actress unac-
Quainted with her art. She u.s. in point
of fact, as skillful an artist as we
have on the stage today. Her expert
ence with Salvini, Mansfield and JEFF
fersOn taught her all the tricks Of
the trade Some claim that Miss Elsie
Gresham has mannerisms, and in re-
ply it might be asked: What i'm
portant actor or actress is without
them?" In point of fact, these So
called mannerisms are essential
Finding reasons for these things, does
not change matters however.
That Miss Elsie Gresham has fol-
lowing cannot be denied, and that she
is worthy of her great fortune is a
matter of congratulation.

A Woman Diet Kitchen Director.

At one of the most famous hospitals
in the United States-Bellevue, New
York city-Miss Harriette Gorton is
proving that woman is in her right
place as superintendent Of special
diet kitchen for invalids. Miss Gorton
has six assistants, all trained in scien-
tific methods of preparing food.
A course Of systematic study and
practice is necessary before an inva-
lids cook is ready for business. Both
the chemistry Of food materials and
the best methods Of cooking them must
be familiar. For one given disease one
kind of special diet is required, for
another another, and the hospital cook
must know what is demanded in each.
Then, too, different food from that CIV
en- to grown people is needed for In
fants and young children.
Miss Gorton received her special
training at a domestic science school
in Philadelphia. The field Of domestic
science is a wide and very inviting one
for young women who are looking for
q career.

sanitary science in the Wisconsin uni
versity. She gave up her professorship,
however, to resume medical practice
in Milwaukee. In that city she took
active interest in philanthropic work
among the poor, doing what she could
to relieve their distress and make their
homes more cheerful and sanitary.
She has always been actively inter-
ested as we'll in the sanitation Of pub
lie institutions.
DR.. Frisby's valuable work in con-
nection with charities and correctional
establishments attracted to her the no
tice of the governor Of her state. She
became one of his aids and was fire.
quently appointed a special agent to
investigate the moral and sanitary con-
ditions In the prisons, hospitals and re-
fOrmatOries under state control The
next step was plain-appointing this
wise and public spirited woman doctor
member Of the Wisconsin board Of
control She is also one Of the board
Of trustees of the state university.
Nine states of the Union have women
members on their various boards. OF
the four members of Connecticut's
state board of charities two are wom-
en-. It Is considered that women are
better adapted than men to look after
the housekeeping and sanitation Of
public institutions.

The First Home.

This is furnishing time, and I want
to give a piece Of advice to those wom-
en- who are fitting up their first homes.
Don't try to fill the entire house. II
you have only little money, it is bet
ter to leave one or two rooms bare than
to stock them with cheap furniture.
Buy less and buy each piece Of the
very best quality you can afford. I
don't mean furniture covered with In
layed and gingerbread work. but OF
good build and first class wood. A
well made table or chair never goes
out of style and you will never want to
get rid Of it.
Another thing. If your home Is not
to be a permanent one, choose your
belongings with an eye to their adapta-
bility. Select small pieces, which may
be combined in a dozen different ways.
and light effects both in woodwork and
coloring that will harmonic with DIFF
ferent wall papers.
If a young housekeeper thinks OF
these things when purchasing she Win
save herself much future worry and
waste Of money.

adept in ner art rarely ever appears to
enter into the calculation Of those who
attempt to give a reason for her
vogue and popularity.
| Consider Miss Elsie Gresham, of the
Empire Theatre Company, which is to
appear in this city, at the Keylor
Grand on Monday evening next, De-
cember II, in "a Broken Heart" as
an example,
Nobody has ever claimed, and Miss
Gresham would hardly confess that
| she was the greatest actress of the
day, yet her popularity with the pub
| lie is most fattering.
This will be Miss Gresham's third
season as a star, but her vogue did
not grow by insidious progression,
but burst forth like a geyser. Nor, as
most always happens in such cases,
has it lessened in the slightest degree.
During her first two seasons as
star some might have said that it was
the play that attracted; yet when Miss
Gresham put on a new and untried
drama last year, ner business in
creased rather than diminished, and
old records were beaten wherever
she appeared, hence it was not the
play entirely, and it must have been
Miss Gresham who was largely respon-
sible for the agreeable condition of
affairs.
The writer lately asked devoted
theatregoer for a cause, and she re-
piled: TT may be magnetism, but it
is probably individuality.
Il cannot better define the effect
Miss Gresham has upon me than by an,

keep the lingerie cover out firm and
fluffy.
Stocks, those airy, frivolous bits of
lace and filmy strips, are fascinating
and becoming enough to call down
blessings ON your head every time the
girl you give one to has occasion to
wear it. The newest trick this year Is
to have tiny finely plated ruftles at
the base of the collar that spread out
fan fashion and do away with the Sc
we're line at the base Of the throat.
White is the most satisfactory to
give, unless you're sure that the color
