Other Days.

Other Days.
I must forsake the noisy town, the city's
din and rush.
And rest a while in distant woods and
hear the hermit thrush;
/ long to lie upon the grass and reVel
mid the flowers,
To dream strange dreams Of life and
death within the lonely bowers.
/ long to stroll through the village lanes,
the lanes I used to know,
And see the acorrS that were familiar in
the long ago;
The boys l knew in other days are men,
save those who died,
And memories are drifting fast to dearer
oblivion's tide.
l long to see the school house as it stood
in days of yore.
To play the games we playmates played
Wen play them nevermOre!
I long to see the river flow around the
villages bend,
To view the changes time has wrought,
to see the story's trend.
o, flow on, Time, and do your work, flow
on your. endl less way,
'Tis Well we essay not to stop your heed
less. mighty sway;
Yet mid the lights and shadows and the
turmoil wild and vast,
There comes to me a wish for scenes
now blended with the past.

Some Words Of Counsel.

wedding day. Now, If this sort OF
casual life-saving is to take rank as
a summer industry, ought it not to be
kept free from sentimental conse-
quences? Ought the dashing young
hero as he plunges through the waves
to catch the beautiful young heroine
by the hair as she goes under for the
third time to be burdened with doubts
as to whether his income is sufficient
to support two? It is likely to chill
the stoutest heart that ever breasted
the sea to have to ask itself at so crit
ical a moment whether the drowning
girl may not belong to different So
cial set, whether her parents may not
have plans for her future. A man may
stand ready, as matter of course, to
brave any perils to save woman's
life and still desire leisure to consider
whether the time has come to abandon
his bachelor habits and live in fiat.

TRYING TO JOB SEN. PILES
Seattle Politicians Want to Down
Junior Senator.
evolve new SCHEME IN PRIMARIES
WANT VOTERS TO EXPRESS
PREFERENCE OF CANDIDATES
FOR THE LEGISLATURE.
evolve new SCHEME IN PRIMARIES

A petition asking the republican
county committee to permit voters to
express a direct preference by ballot
on legislative nominees at the time
delegates are elected to the county
convention is in circulation and will be
presented to- the county committee
when it meets, says the Seattle Times.
The petition asks for vote only
on legislative candidates. Such bal
lot would have no binding effect upon
the convention, for under the Hicks
primary law the delegates are free to
do as they please. But the men be-
hind the direct primary movement in
sist that the delegates would respect
the vote.
There is a significance in the fact
that legislative candidates are the only
ones suggested for the ballot that pol
iticians have not overlooked. Those In
touch with the situation do not be-
lieve the ballot is suggested for expe-
rimental purposes. They insist the
motive must be to kill off certain leg
islative candidates.
The fight for a popular vote is not
made in the interest of Senator fhes'
as his friends are absolutely confident
of controlling the situation and are
satisfied with the calling OF regular
delegate convention and nominations
made in regular order. The only in
depreciation that politicians can give
the petition is that it is a move
against Piles interests.
1t is not believed by any OF the Plies
following that the anti-Piles men
could control the legislative nominal
tons. But Piles is expected to express
his preferences in practically all the
legislative districts, and his supporters
are anxious that these Piles men be
nominated.
BY making a concerted fight against
certain men it is possible that tney
could be defeated. This contingency
is not probable, but that is the only
one than politicians can see consluereo
in the primary movement.
It is not believed the county COM
mittee will adopt the suggestion. Inc
committee is strongly in favor OF Piles
and the fact that Piles men are not
back Of the movement will nave the
prabable effect Of defeating it.

HORSE MEAT IN THE PHILIPPINES
Secret Service Men Investigating the
Charge that Diseased Animals
Have Been Used as Food.

MANILA, May 25.-Oficers of the
secret service have been engaged for
some time in an investigation of tho
alleged killing C diseased horses for
food purposes. They found that the
practice existed in several places be-
tween Manila and Caloocan, the prod
uct having been sold in the form of
''dried beef" Instructions have been
given from Washington which will en-
able the operators of the information
division of the constabulary, co-operat-
ing with the health authorities, to
break up such unsanitary practices.
The report on the case, showing the
extent of the business, has been sub
mitted to the war department. The
constabulary officials at Manila have
taken prompt, and what promises to be
effective, action in the matter.

Il have to state also that late last
fall, October and November, 1904, I
was suddenly afflicted with bad erup-
ton, painful and itching pustules over
the lower part of the body. I suffered
dreadfully. In two months, under the
skilful treatment of my doctor, con-
joined with Cuticura Soap and Cuticura
Ointment, I found myself cured.
"Six years ago my son was laid up
with q severe cold, hard cough, and

as soon as possible, and after his faith
full use of same was as well as ever in
two weeks, as well as I can recall. He
