TREATMENT OF DUMB
ANIMALS.

Mrs. Minnie Maddern Fiske, who is
regarded as Americas most talented
actress, is the founder of the National
Animal Relief society, recently organ
lied. To this work she has given many
hours of her busy life. In fact all the
time she could spare from her art has
been devoted to this cause. In a re.
cent talk she gave utterance to the fol
lowing expressions on this subject.
MANS iphnmanity to man often
taxes ones credulity, but there Is one
thing still more monstrous-a thing
that dwarfs all else in completing the
conclusions that mankind is as yet NOR.
ally and Intellectually unfit to govern
the affairs of a planet. l speak of
mans almost complete inability to per.
cieve or understand his duty towards
the dumb beasts of the earth, which
are placed here at his mercy. Mans
cruelty to animals transcends all his
other crimes, all his sins of omission
and OF commission.
Ever since | have been able to
think, this one fact in life-man's cruel
ty to dumb ksasts-has seemed to be
the nos terrible Il terrifying of life.
The feeling is not born of morbidity-
to every intelligent SOU the claim oil
the human being must and ever should
come before .he claim of the dumb
beast. But that does not alter what l
believe to be the fact-that mans
cruelty to animals is the saddest thing
that may be contemplated In life.
The numerous organizations devot.
ed to the projection of animals inva,
riably are the poorest societies in the
world. Nearly all of them struggle to
exist. The work prospers because OF
the devotion of the few. The rich
rarely extend help. Money in aid Of
the work comes for the most part from
the poor. AS in all human affairs
where the gentler, finer, sweeter and
more sensitive instincts of mankind
are appealed to, the Door seem to have
a great advantage over the rich.
Il do Lot think there ever was a
rich man who was a generous man.
Rich men give l%avishly, but they never
are generous in the true sense of the
word. They eve give in proportion
to what they have. The poor man OF
ten is generous.
Half the world OF society Is absorb.
ed in its own crude pleasures. There
is indeed a better half which some
times may be appealed TO- and. of
course, a few rich men easily could
abolish all the more terrible features
of cruelty of every kind. But this sub,
ject for the most part does not seem
to interest them"

PATENT MEDICINE ADVERTISING.

Wed like TO have been at Lander
with the Iress boys. Would have been,
too. If Secretary Walker hadn't been
too busy fixing" things to send us any
notice. But there was one important
matter overlooked. 1t was the matter
of running patent medicine ads as
filters" No use, boys. You may as
well own UP. You're not getting
any better prices from these pois-
on-slingers than we could get, and
those prices wouldn't pay the time of
composition. If the Herald is ever
forced into it again, it will be because
the other state papers are afraid to
back us UP in fighting these ours. Hon,
estly, brethren, we should be ashamed
to make our cry about home institu.
tons giving us their advertising and
then run the strangers ad for onetifth
the price We charge our home mer.
chants.-Encampment Herald.
1t is a matter Of regret that Editor
McCandless was not at the meeting
Of the state editorial association. He
missed many good things, and amons
others a discussion of the matter of
printing patent medicine advertising.

FASHIONS

The Leghorn hats are many Of them
trimmed with wings, light blue being
favorites. and these pinned on with
a couple Of the tremendous hatpins.
Ribbon to match is used, drawn over
and in under the brim.
A stunning pair Of black and white
silk stockings had butterflies Of every
description appIiqued on the instep
and half way up the front.
So wide a range Of colors is now
provided in silk hosiery that 1t is
hardly necessary to consult the dyer
when a frock is to be matched.
A great many hand-embroidered
hose are in evidence when the decora-
tons will be in self tones. Lace ap.
pliques are more in favor Just now
than for some time. Heavy lace mo-
tits in varying sizes decorate the in
steps Of some of the h~andsomest no.
siery.
Those who can stand stiff stocks
wear a high linen collar, which has a
tiny turnover. With this there is a
shaped band of MORE, passed around
the collar and tied in ascot shape.
They are equally stylish in white or
black, whichever is more becoming.
For the benefit of the girl who suf.
fers with having her costly silk hose
break through at the knees let her
sew a small square Of satin ribbon to
which her hose supporters IAN be at.
tached instead Of to the silk webbing.
The filmy tissues of afternoon and
evening gowns are usually gathered
just at the waist in front and gradual.
ly curve upward two or three inches
to the back. Stirring is often used
instead of a girdle, and is sloped up
ward, as are the skirts where the full.
less is held by inch-wide %lengthwise
plaits.
Clinging lines once more prevail.
and whatever the trimming, the shape
is usually the ame-a modification Of
the old-time bell or umbrella skirt. So
closely do these skirts cling round the
hips, and even below, that with the
wide fare at the bottom many of the
late gowns are positively sinuous in
effect.
II the outer skirt should be of very
thin wolfe, chiffon cloth or soft white
null, it may be gathered all the way
round, with much more fullness at the
back than elsewhere. With increas-
ing weight Of material, the gathers de
crease at the sides and front-in the
back, too, for that matter until the
skirt, in a liberty satin, for instance,
is fitted quite smoothly around the
hips, a few gathers holding the ma
terial in place IN the belt, instead Of
its being gored out.

The railroad is sc close to Encamp-
ment that the Herald Of that enterpris.
They are listening for the sound Of the
whistle over there, while Editor Craw.
ford Of the Saratoga Sun Is already
complaining because the pesky thing
keeps him awake o'nights. He has
been in training for the railroad jubi'
lation.

GONE TO RANCH FOR
FEW DAYS, OUTING.

Mrs. c. c. Carlisle and daughter, lit.
tie Miss Alice Carlisle, are expected
to pass through the city tomorrow at
ternoon, en- route frome their home at
Cheyenne to the Dixon ranch, in the
northern part of the county, where
they will spend some time with Mr..
and Mrs. Dixon and with Hon. and Mrs.
G. w. Fox. They are the daughter and
granddaughter, respectively, Of Prfo.
and Mrs. F. w. Lee Of this city.

BACK FROM THE RIVER.

Mrs. NJ. A. Bunker and children and
Mrs. Winslow and daughter have re.
turned from Lund's where they have
been visiting for the past TWO weeks,
and Mrs. Bunker will return to her
home at Greeley, Colo, tomorrow. The
children had a most delightful outing

THE OKLAHOMA CONSTITUTION.

Secretary Taft condemns the propos,
ed Oklahoma constitution and tells the
people of that embryo state hat it Is
a collection Of bylaws, tainted with
anarchism, socialism and populism.
This is the constitution which Mr.. Bry.
an praised as being as good as the
constitution Of the United States or
better.
In view of the conflicting opinions
thus expressed, the people of Okla
homa would do well to have another
constitutional convention and see what
they can do in a second effort. Sec.
Rotary Taft is an able lawyer, and Mr..
Bryan is a populistic dreamer in
search Of something sensational out of
which to make an ISSUE. 1t Is not
strange that the radical provisions OF
the Oklahoma constitution appeal to
Mr.. Bryan, and among sober-minded
men his praise should be looked upon
as condemnation of the severest kind.
The Oklahoma convention attempted
too much when it framed this consti.
tuition, and another effort should be
made to see what may be achieved
through simplicity. Nearly all state
constitutions contain too much. They
go too much into detail and are far too
minute in their provisions. The or
ganic law Of a state should be organic.
1t should not concern itself about mat
tiers of legislation to be based upon
and made to conform to the principles
of organic law.-Denver Republican.
