Notwithstanding President Roose-
welt, with all due respect to his opin-
lon, thinks Taft Is the only man
that can possibly beat Bryan in the
presidential race, he might be mis-
taken In even thinking Taft bad the
running power to accomplish this
pedestrian feat. On account OIL
Taft's corporosity, and some other
things, mostly the other things,
there are many democrats and pos
sibly few republicans that will as
seyerate that taft us a Splinter Is
net an unqualified success.

CHAPTER XVIII.
NEW YORK CITY.

remember asking my uncle, soon
after first became acquainted with
him, what sort of place New York
was; to which inquiry he made the
characteristic reply that it was very
fine city, with more thieves to the
square inch, than any other place
on the carths surface. That was all

Quacy of all descriptions of places. for
the faces of men do not differ more
widely than their IDEAS Of the sub

1t was with great satisfaction that
l found myself at last in New York
harbor. The steamer which had
brought me TO America was of recent
construction, well found, swift. and
luxuriously appointed; but none the
less was l heartily tired of the voy-
age. My first forty-eigh! hours at
sea had been spent in way too com
mon with travellers to need more than
passing reference. Fear that the ship
would 60 to the bottom soon changed
to fear that 1t might not; and that
mental condition departed on the re-
newal of health and appetite. Then
came the days Oh deck, spent in watch
ing the restless waves and the mag
nilicent rising and setting of the sun,
varied by occasional studies through

Russians huddled together on the fore
part of the deck, the most filthy and

able-material destined for speedy con
version into American citizens. Bar

and and New Jersey, taken altogether
! form undoubtedly one of the great
sights of the world, quite captivating

The Texas Spirit.

You gather from Texas conversation
that the massacre of the Alamo hap
pened last month, that the Mexican
War occurred last week, and that the
Civil War was tragedy of yesterday,
says M. G. Cunniff in the World S
Work. Every Texas child is required
to know his Texas history. When he
grows up he does not forget 1t. The
unique Texas tradition becomes a part
of the daily life and thought of the
state, as few other states traditions
permeate its people-even those of
Massachusetts and Virginia. 1t is a
fine and inspiring thing. 1t makes you
feel like an outsider, but you admire
the pride and self-contidence it gives
the Texans. Some other States would
be less ridden by the forces that as
sail democracy, if their sturdy ira
dtions mingled more with the unceas-
ing daily talk of money-making, even
though but few states have heroes
quite like Stephen Austin, Davy
Crockett, Ren Milan, and Sam Hous.

Proper Care of Cattle,

Lice on cattle indicate lack of at
tention and poor feed. Grease of any
kind will destroy lice on cattle, but
grease should not be used II it can
be avoided. First wash the animal
with kerosene emulsion and follow
with clear water. When the skin is
dry dust every portion of the body
with a mixture of peck Of carbolate
of lime and bushel of clean, dry dirt.
If single animal is infested with
lice the others will soon be in the
same condition unless remedies are
used as preventives.
