All IN the ThKpnYer.

First we tax ourselves through the
tariff into increasing the cost of every
thing which is thus destructive of a
free merchant marine. and then the
Republicans propose to tax us again
to even up things for the merchant ma
rine by voting for the ship subsidy bill.
And President Roosevelt recommends
this rs Il square deal for the American
taxpayer.

The Food We Eat,

All honest Americans were shocked
at the embalmed beef scandal during
the Spanish war and demanded pure
food for our soldier boys. Now 1t is
discovered that all OF us who eat the
products of the beef trust have been
fed on the same vile stuff.

soNsH MIND WAS WORKING.
Younester on His First Sail Over the
Raging Main"

None of us ever quite forget those
days-when our years were few-of
dreaming about life on the raging
main, when the imagination reveled
in pirates and plumber from state
ly galleons and valorous deeds done
on storm-swept decks, says a writer
in the New York Times. Recollection
of this period is, az any rate, sufti-
ciently vivid, so that the remark of
a small boy could contribute maze
rally to the "gayety of nations"
among the passengers on one Of the
excursion steamers running from
Manhattan across the harbor to
Coney Island.
The steamer made her way across
the bay, lodging tugs and ferryboats
fortunately meeting no pirate craft.
The passengers, escaping gladly from
the city's heat, nibbled their sand
witches and enjoyed the breeze. The
walters moved about the deck with
their trays. The boy, just from the
inland town, where his life so far
had been spent, sat rapt and wide
eyed If one could but know fully
the mental content" from which
sprang his words at last!
MAJ" he cried, hoarsely, tell me
which one of EN- is the skipper!"

GAS USED UNDER LIME kILNs.
innovation by Connecticut Company
Is a Success.

The New England Lime company,
Of winstead, Conn, asserts that it is
the first to introduce gas as fuel for
lime burning. The method is pro
nounced an entire success. The grow
ing scarcity Of wood fuel led to the
discovery Of gas as a substitute for
wood, and the company no longer con-
siders the gas method an experiment.
The efficacy and reliability Of gas
have been demonstrated beyond a
doubt Had it been impossible to find
a substitute for wood, said member
Of the company, it would have meant
the restriction and perhaps the total
abandonment of the business. Gas
fires are absolutely clean at all times
no clinkers and no cinders-and the
lime produced is much whittier than
that burned by wood. Gas also pro-
duces a more intense heat, and conse-
quently increases the capacity of the
kilns. The daily output at the com
panys kilns is increased from 80 bar
rels per kiln to 100 barrels, or a total
Of TOO barrels daily.

A ten days trial of Postum Food
Coffee has proven means, in thou
sands of cases, of clearing up bad
compilations.
A Washn. young lady tells her expe-
rience:
"All Of us--father, mother, sister
and brother-had used tea and coffee
for many years until finally we all
had stomach troubles more or less.
I'VE were all sallow and troubled
with pimples, breath bad, disagree
able taste in the mouth, and all of us
simply so many bundles of nerves.
I'VE didn't realize that coffee was
the cause of the trouble until one day
we ran out of coffee and went to Dor
row some from a neighbor. She gave
us some Postum and told us to try
that.
Although we started to make It,
we all felt sure we would be sick II
we missed our strong coffee, but we
were forced to try Postum and were
surprised to find it delicious.
I'VE read the statements on the
pkg, got more and in month and a
half you wouldn't have known us
We were all able to digest our food
without any trouble. each ones skin
became clear, tongues cleaned off and

THE FINAL FIGURES.

The state board of canvas sers have f.
naIy completed the figures showing the
exact vote cast at the November election.
The total vote Of the states on governor
was 5,379, or only 6,926 less than
was cast for that Office IN the election Of
two years ago---and this was an of
year, too. Thus the stay-at-home vote
was not nearly so large as supposed.
Hoch's final plurality is 2,l23. His total
vote was l52,l47 and that Of Harris
l50,024. Gillian, the Socialist candi-
date, received 1921. Cook. Prohibi-
ton, received 4,45l. keefer, the can
didate of the fake Peoples party ticket
gotten up, financed and fathered by Re
publican railroad politicians who sought
to divide the opposition. received l.l3l.
TEe-e were three scattering votes, one
of which went to Chairman Crumme.
and one to w. r. Stubs. Governor
Hoch received ,083 less than ma
jority of all the votes cast. The total
vote registered against him by all parties
was 1920. Tom McNeal. the gen.
ial e l;tor Of the Mail and Breeze, led h.
ticket with plurality of 1862. The
three railroad commissio n ers, two of whom
are recognized tools of the railroads, were
e,e1ted by pluralties Of less than 10000
each. All that saved them was the
number Of Straight votes cast. Two
or three years more Of high freight rates
and insolent railroad domination ought to
have the effect of curing these 'straight"
v9ters of this brand of political idiocy.
