A Warning Against Overwork.

"A warning 1AShAnS6 OVCFWOTAs
In a recent address before a medical
society DR.. s. 7. Tucker sounds a
note Of warning against that strenu-
Gus life now so often and, as he be-
lieyes, mistakenly extolled. To quote:
The now famous saying credited to
DR.. Oslar that man is practically use
less after sixty years of age is true Of
most men, bat it should not be and
would not be if we would remember that
"all work and no play makes Jack a
dull boy The physiologic functions Of
the human economy are governed by the
simple law of demand and supply. The
executor Of this law is the cell. 1t con-
tains a life principle called the nucleus.
The nucleus gives the cells energy and
the power to reproduce themselves rap.
idly and manifold when supplied with the
proper food as found in the healthy
blood current. Every tissue and part Of
the body is an aggregation Of cells, like
the bricks that make up a wall. The
process called metabolism is cellular ac-5
tivity. BY thought and muscular action
tissues are consumed; by cell prolifera-
ton they are replenished. In order that
the proper equilibrium be maintained in
this process and the cells be not con-
sumed faster than they multiply it is
decreed that we must take time to eat,
resi- and sleep. Prolonged endeavor,
overwork and worry with insufficient
food and rest, break the equilibrium ex-
haust vitality and invite disease. This
condition is too prevalent in our Amer
lean life. We go under high pressure,
and our pace is too rapid. Our schools
and colleges where we should be taught
how to live, are not free from this spirit
of stress and strain. Students are goad-
ed to tasks beyond their powers and,
being anxious to stand at the head Of
their classes, they hurry their meals,
overstudy, take. little time for rest, and,
as a natural consequence, many become
nervous wrecks.
DR.. Tucker is not ayerse to a strenu-
Gus life when it is safeguarded by
proper diversion and periodical rest. a
man should drive his business and not
be driven BY it and SO re able to lay
down the reins for a spell when his
working powers have reached a rea-
sonable limit Worry and anxiety are
enervating and devitalizing, and these
are inevitable sequels to the modern
competitive struggles which men en-
gage in.

GIVE OUT WARNING
Counterfeit Bank Notes Being
Passed in Northern Illinois
and Southern Wisconsin
INSPECTORS ARE AT WORK

Counterfeit $40 notes are being
passed in the northern part of Illinois
and southern part of Wisconsin and
It is feared that attempts may be made
to pass the same kind of notes here.
The police today received a letter
from Thomas L. Porter, of the United
States secret service, informing them
Of the passing of the counterfeit
notes and giving a description of the
man passing them.
The merchants of Kenosha should
carefully examine all SO notes given
them. The letter from Capt. Porter
is as follows:
Chicago, H., Aug. %, 1906.
To the Chief of Police.
Sir: The $40 U. S. note, known as
the Buffalo note, is counterfeited and
being passed IN the northwestern part
of Illinois. The counterfeit note IS
printed on two pieces of paper be-
tween which silk threads have been
distributed; these threads are straight
and much too heavy; the threads
should be fine and wavy. The note at
first sight appears good, but will not
bear close inspection. It is about
one fourth of an inch shorter than
the genuine note. The back is sew
era1 shades lighter green than genu-
inc notes.
The man who is passing this bad
note is fifty to ffty-flve years olds
about feet high. forid complexion,
smooth face, has slight foreign ac-
cent, has the appearance of Catholic
priest, though does not dress like one.
This man usually calls at butcher
shops and buys pound or SO of saus-
age and pays for same with one of the
bad bills.
Please notify meat market men and
keepers of small stores or shops to be
on the lookout for the fellow, and a
bad note, and to quietly report the
presence of either man or note to you.
Wire me to new federal building,
Chicago, Ill, government rate at my
expense, or. call me on phone Harrison
400, local p, if you have any infor-
nation concerning this matter.
Reward, 500 fer conviction.

rs MADE VICAR GENERAL
Father Abbelen to Assist Archbishop
Messmer in This Diocese

MesSmer in This Diocese
Archbishop Messmer Wednesday
afternoon announced the appointment
of Rev. P. M. Abbelen, chaplain Of
of Notre Dame convent, as a vicar
general of the Milwaukee archdiocese,
to assist Mgr. Rainier in the discharge
of the duties Of the office. The new
vicar general will continue to make
his home at the convent, his new
duties not interfering with his
illustrations at the mother house of
the Notre Dame sisters.
The appointment. was made on ac-
count Of the enfeebled health of
Vicar General Rainier. who has gone
Ito Europe for protracted stay. The
archbishop may appoint as many
vicar generals as he deems necessary
for the proper discharge of the multi
farious duties Of the office, and this
archdiocese will hereafter have two
vicar generals. The officers Of the
corporation of the Milwaukee Catholic
archdiocese consist Of Archbishop
Messmer, Father Keogh, pastor Of
St. Johns cathedral, and the vicar
generals.
Vicar General Abbelen will be the
secretary of the archdiocese, and as
such it is necessary for him to affix
his signature to all important docu-
ments, and the absence of Mgr. Raj
ner made the appointment Of another
vicar general imperative. Owing to
his impaired health, it is possible that
Vicar General Rainer will remain
abroad for a year or more. He will
visit Rome before returning.
Vicar General Abbelen was born
August s, 1843, at Dulken, Prussia.
His preliminary education was had
at the Augustinian university, in
Gresdonek, and when he came to this
country he Immediately entered ST.
Francis seminary to complete his
studies for the priesthood. He was
ordained january %, 1868, by Bishop
Henni, who then was the bishop Of
Lacrosse, and later he achieved dis
tinction as the archbishop Of Milwau-
kee. Father Abbelen held pastorates
at La Crosse, Chippewa Falls, and
Prairie du Chen, before assuming
the Office Of spiritual director at
Notre Dame

Back to the Christ Ideal.

A manufacturing town like Paterson
offers choice field for observation on
the appeal of the modern church to the
masses, and the Rev. e. #. Blanchard
Of that city writes in Christian Work
and Evangelist as follows:
The great need IS to make the church
mean in present conditions what print
tive Christianity meant to the world ages
ago. This is the real reform needed, but
strange to say, there is no effort made in
this direction. Instead schemes of expedi-
.ency. are sresorted to. In their last analy-
sis institutional church efforts, young
peoples movement, church federation and
the endowment of churches are such
schemes, primarily designed to gloss over
glazing weaknesses and to stimulate flag
ging interests. These efforts offer noth-
ing for improving the ethical status Of
organized religion or for restoring the
spirit of primitive Christianity. These
efforts do not make the church mean in
the new condition what the early Chris
tan church meant ages ago.
Another church worker In a similar
field, the Rev. G. Z. Dixon of Boston,
recently declared that the tendency Of
the institutional church is to pauperize
a certain element of the lower classes
and at the same time to repel the self
respecting people who might be bene-
flied in church relations where the re-
demption of the soul is held to be the
chief aim Of the gospel

IT WILL NOT SECEDE
United Workmen Lodge Decides
to Pay New Rates Into the
Supreme Treasury
TO HANDLE OWN INSURANCE

The Wisconsin grand lodge of the
Ancient Order of united Workmen.
will abide by the decision1Lof the
supreme lodge on thesrate question
and will paysinto the supreme treasury
the additional Is cents a member,
which was 'ordered by the national
body at itsslast session and which will
come into effect on Oct. /.
After afspirited session, consuming
the greater part Of Wednesday, the
committee ofsten, appointed to decide
the fate Of the state organization,
finally agreed togaccept the new rates
but at the same time suggested that
the lodge depart from the former
custom Of adhering strictly tosthe de-
cisions Of the supreme lodge on mat
tiers pertaining to Ethe affairs of the
organization.
AS thes.decisiong ofssssthe committee
was received with approval on both
matters, the WISCONSIN lodge will
take care of its own insurance matters
after October, as well as paying its
own death losses. The committee
showed by theirs.report that the state
organization handling its..ssown in
surance matters and paying its
death losses ,ssan additional surplus
could be accumulated. At present
there are a,large number of unpaid
death claims throughout the state
and It will taket'the lodge several
years tospay them up. The organiza-
ton voted to.wipe out the liabilities
by cutting sthessalaries Of the working
officers as we'll as reducinglthe run
ming expenses Ct the grand lodge.
By observation-disclosures 1908.session
several thousand dollars will be saved
which will be Dapplied to the death
claim fund.
1.-The delegates now appear in favor
Of the adoption of the new rates."
said Grandg5Master J. E. Thayer.
1.-The death1rate has been constantly
increasingsand we know of no other
scheme toaraise theInecessary funds
"The matterahas arrived at such a
state thatsmany ofsthe members, who
have been paying assessments for
the last ten years, could not,withdraw
from the organization for the sake Of
few cents nontha and.Gmany of
them have openly declared that they
either had to pay the rates or go into
bankruptcy.
/ II think that the supreme body is
doing the best it can and is making
an earnest effort tocplace the organi-
cation on healthy financial basis,
and feel sure that whens the excite
ment is over the members ,of the or
position will see the wisdom Of the
move.'
The action Of the committee will
affect about 1000 members lin this
state and the state officers will handle
4 the new fund themselves and afford
the members the protection Of the
state body and not require them to
look to the national organization for
assistance.
/ The rate discussion, together with
4 the business and routine work Con-
sumed the entire day and the remain
ling business will be completed at to-
Idays session.

THE street railway company should
issue orders to its motormen not to
block the crossing at the corner of
South and Main streets when stop
ping to take on or let off passengers.
Cars coming from both directions
have to use the same corner at this
street intersection, and.as it is one of
the busiest in the city, it is quite an
annoyance to pedestrians to have the
crossing blocked SO often and there is
not the slightest necessity for it. The
cars can just as well go on a yard or
two farther and keep the crossing
clear.

COVICZ is HELD
Crotian Arrested in Kenosha Must AN
swer to Charges of Murder

swer to Charges of Murder
Peter Covicz, arrested ia this city
several weeks ago on a charge of
numbering Leopold Ritonia, a Mil
waukee saloon keeper, had a prelim-
mary hearing in Milwaukee on We'd
nesday afternoon and was held to the
municipal court without bail. The
companions of Covicz, who were also
in Kenosha, will have a hearing later
in the week and it is probable that
they will be held as accomplices in
the crime. Covicz has stoutly denied
any connection with the crime, but
the confessions made by the men who
were with him on the night of the
murder seem to leave no room for
doubt. It is alleged that Covicz him
self admitted the crime to his land
lord and it is probable that this man
will be one of the chief witnesses
against him.

a large, powerful man, weighing
about $50 pounds. The train crew

was all over, and he wanted to die
He said his home was Harlem, N. Z.
In many respects he answers to the
description of Paul O. Stensland, the
missing Chicago banker, having the
same whiskers, weight about the
same, but Chief Pfster, after a care
full investiga said it was not the
banker. The stranger is we'll edu-

ZION Cry has some rules and regu-
lations that might be adopted in other
cities with good results. One of them
is the regulation which requires
parties desiring to stop to converse on
public street to stand on the outer
edge Of the sidewalk. This not only
prevents the blockading of the walks
but does away with 1oafng on the
streets to a great extent. It requires
more energy that the average genuine
loafer possesses to stand Up unsup-
ported for any length of time and
there would be a general tendency to
move on il the loafers were denied
the privilege of leaning up against
the buildings while practicing the
gentle art of killing time.

from the county now than it did when
it was first preached. Certainly the

TO IMPROVE OLD BUILDING
A. Wu1f Will Rebuild the Old Organ
Factory at Gree

Plans are being made for extensive
repairs to the old organ factory at the
corner of Church and Wisconsin
streets and it's owner, A. Wulf, states
that the building will be greatly i'm
proved. It is the plan to convert it
into store rooms, and already the cor
ner room has been rented for cloth
ing store. The work of rebuilding
will be started at once and it will be
rushed to completion.
1t is now thought impossible for the
government to secure this property as
a site for a federal building as Mr..
Wulff made no proposition for it's
