SAYS NEVER AGAIN.

William Randolph Hearst says
he's had enough. If he sticks
to this sentiment there will be a
feeling Of intense relief exper-
fenced by the masses irrespec-
tive of political affiliations and
echo will answer far and near,
"Good enough!' Willie is in
command Of scant respect at the
hands of his fellows, even
among those who know him best.
III California, the state where
he made his home for so many
years, and where he has great
properties, he is blessed with

politically dead, but he died hard
and none to soon. Had one
counseled with his nostrils he
would have declared that pol
itical death has gathered the boy
to his Fathers some time since.

GOVERNMENT INVESTIGATES.

y things are happening
these days to incline one to the
idea that there is a tendency to-
ward centralization of govern
mental power in the United
States. The latest movement In
this direction is certainly inter
esting, or will be for some, as it
is a unique proposition. 1t is an
investigation of the causes Of so
many divorces.
Just why the webs which Dan
Cupid spent so many hours of
labor and love to weave should
have been cut and slashed SO
ut,1lessly by various judges
throughout the land is what the
government proposes to find out.
The desire for this data is based
upon the idea of more uniform
divorce laws in the various
states. In order that the gov
eranlent may accomplish its pur-
pose clerks will visit every state
in the union and copy the di-
vorce records of every court
within said state. In fact,
leash work has already been
done under governmental orders
in some of the eastern states,
and a dozen or more are expect
ed to arrive in Oregon sometime
during the present month.
Mul5noman will be the first
Oregon county to have her di-
vorce court records investigated
and the investigation will cover
a period of twenty years back.
All features of the various suits
for divorce, whether lust ordi-
Larry" or sensational in the ex-
treme, are to be published in the
reports of the Department of
Commerce and Labor. The in
vestigation was started upon
the recommendation of Presi-
dent Roosevelt in one of his mes
sageS to congress.
We fancy that after the publi-
cation of these suits for divorce
begins the reports of the Depart
ment of Commerce and Labor
will be read regularly, early and
late, and by all classes, even by
intellectual people. It is safe to
predict tha the first few editions
will run short-but the depart
mant will soon get next. "a
Thousand Nights Entertain
ment!" Here is promised data
which shall cause the glor es Of
the "Arabian Nights" to fade
into insignifcance. Whether in
compatibility Of temper, the use
OF Intoxicating liquors or infideli-
ty shall prove the reason for the
suit FOR divorce most frequently
uzearthed by the investigating
committee remains to be seen.
1t will be interesting to learn
whether men or women are the
more frequent petitioners for
escape from the yoke that binds.

The Man Who Laughs.

Look out for the man who laugh
to himself; he Is probably insane
says DR.. X. Francotte, who writes or
Laughter and Its Anomalies" IL
the Revue des Questions Scientihqueg
(Louvain, Belgium, October 20th)
Persons who chance to recollect
something amusing should therefore
compose their features, or share the
joke with their friends, on penalty OF
being suspected of mental weakness,
Says DR.. Francotte:
"The early stages of dementla are
characterized by apathy, by emotion
al Indifference. The subject seem
deprived of every desire, every in
spiration; he takes no interest in
anything whatever; he is careless Of
what happens; he is completely de-
tached from family affection and
friendship.
Rising on this background OF
psychic anesthesla, the laugh of de-
mentla reveals its abnormal origin
at once. IL is specially shown
by the fact that the laugh comes on
without appreclable provocatlon and
In solitude.
THE man who talks to himself is
regarded as out of his mind: the
man who laughs by himself is much
more Justly subject to suspicion OF
mental trouble. This is because. as
Bergson says. laughter is a social
gesture; II Is at bottom contagious,
communicative; 1t implies the pres
ence of some one else; Il presupposes
sympathy and solidarity. Sane men
laugh when alone only exceptionally,
and when they are In company the
tendency of each TO laugh is greater
Rs he is surrounded by large num-
ber OF laughers.
THE man In the early stages OF
insanity has lost the feelings OF sol
idarity and sociability; the exterior
world. his fellows in particular.
seems nonresident for him. His
laugh has no longer any meaning,
any normal value.
Laughter IL often an excellent
of intellectual proyerty. -

Youngsters and Their Toys.

She has her beginning in a great

an adjoining room the paste is pour.

awful, uncanny, hypnotizing. Indeed,
the whole sight was grim and mon
strous. The low factory rooms were
misty with steam and lit by strange,
red-glowing fires; always the great
machines pulsed and changed; and
changed; and through the mist
sweaty giants of men went to and fro
with heaps of little greenish arms
and legs-until you began to think
that some new Herod had killed all

that the inventors have invented
anything. | saw the other day a toy
crocodile with jaws that open and
shut, which was found in the mummy
case of a little girl dead in Egypt
six thousand years ago; and along
the boulevards they are hawking
just such grim little toys today.
Aristotle himself invented the dane
ing dolls filled with uneasy mercury;
and there was a queer toy made in
Alexandria, in which, for the first
time in history, steam turned
wheel and set lot of quaint figures
dancing-so useful contrivance
that cooks used II to turn a spit
withal. AS the modern boy plays
with Noah's Ark. so the little lad
OF Athens played with his Horse OF
Troy" out of which deadly little
terra-cotta warriors erept. And al
ways babyhood has played with a
rattle.
Men learned in the trade of toys
will tell you that the United States
does not manufacture any toys to
speak of. Three million dollars
worth are imported from Germany
alone; and the rest come from
France, from Hungary. from Japan.
Games and articles of sport are
made, of course. but that is about
all From Hungary come almost all
the animals and figures in rubber;
and thence, too, come the little sets
OF turniture-the pale yellow chairs
and tables and sideboards Powered
with roses-and the wonderful pa
pier maehe toys. which were invent
ed by an old musician, Ferdinand
Maugsch, for the amusement of his
grandchildren, and have amused
worldwide generation. Japan pro-
Nides the toys of paper and bamboo,
