Vanity and the Drug Habit.

When a woman is seized by de- sire to better her complexion or her figure by imbibing medicines, the quantity of stun she will swallow in a given time is almost incredible. Vanity is the strongest weakness of the gentler sex, but the physiological effects of the course of drugs, self prescribed and self-administered. are calculated in the end to make the vainest of women regret her methods of self-improvement.

S[V[N MN SUFF0CAIED
A Cheap Lodging House at Kansas City Burned Down with
 Fatal Results.
TWO OTHERS WILL DE FROM INJURIES
All the Dead We're White and Were What Is Known as Floating Rail- road Laborers--None of she Bodies Have Been identified and Probably Never Will be.

Kansas City, Nov. 29.--Seven men were suffocafed in fire which broke out in a rooming house at St. Louis avenue and Santa Fe street at 12:25 o'clock Thursday morning. Two more were so badly injured in jumping from the building that they will die. All were railroad laborers and none of the victims have been identified.
 The fire was the result of an explo- sion of gas. It Is thought a guest en- tered a closed room where gas had been escaping and caused the explo- sion by striking match. The explo- sion was heard by s. Moore, V. A. Creston and H. T. Morton. United States mail clerks. in the Union depot branch of the railroad mail service. They immediately turned in an alarm.
 The building was roaring fur mace when the first company arrived. and 1t was many minutes before a fireman could enter. When the first groped their way through the dense smoke into the building they found the bodies of the dead huddled upon the floor
 They were carried out and placed in Union avenue, covered with canvas by the insurance patrol and later. re- moved to undertaking rooms.
 None of the victims have been iden- tified, and probably never will be. The hotel kept no register; the pat ronage was transient, mostly that of floating railroad laborers. All the dead are white.
 Fireman R. F. Johnson and V. L. White of company No. 6, made thrilling rescue of an old man who was clinging to window of the burn ing building on the second floor. They walked along the narrow cor nice of an adjoining building, at the peril of their own lives, reached him by flinging line made of their spliced belts, and lowered him to the ground
 One man Ieaped from a window and was injured. mortally, 1t is thought. He was taken to the emer- gency hospital Another. badly burned, was cared for by the mail clerks in their quarters nearby. It is thought that he will die.
 The building belonged to John O'Connell. and the lower floor was occupied by his saloon. grocery store and barber shop. The loss on the building is estimated at $10.000.
 At times there were as many as 200 men in the rooming house. It was said by the proprietor that at least 50 were lodged there Wednesday night. Many ran out at the first alarm of fire. but 1t is thought that several bodies yet remain in the building.
 The upper floor is divided into small rooms. and these were so filled with smoke that the firemen were un- able to enter them. even after the fire was well under control
 Many of the fiiemen were at the ball In convention hall when the alarm came. The clambered upon the trucks and Into their waiting wagons, rushed to the fire in full dress and went at the work as heart lily as they had partaken of pleasure a few minutes before.

PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT RECON-
MEMDS FREE ART

W EtgLtS r. TIE 60 An l5s$s
President Roosevelt has always
shown a keen appreciation of the
place which the fine arts should hold
TO q Well-baIanced and highly civil
lied country, and his strong recon
naendation for the removal Of the du-
ty on works Of art expressed in his
recent message to congress does not
come as a surprise.
His active interest in the movement
to make Washington the most beauti-
B ,il city in the world, his efforts for
the establ ishment of national gallery
of art, and his numerous endeaVors
to stimulate interest in art had al.
ready served to indicate what his po-
sition would be on this important edu-
cational question Nothing in his mes
sage will NEST with more unanimous
approval. Artists, college presidents,
art museum directors, professional
and business men from every state
OF. the Union viii applaud this enlight-
ened raconnn endation
The workingmen Of Europe are.
made familiar with the masterpieces
3of art from their childhood and this
art influence creates a refined taste
and an artistic touch in the most
humble artisan which have d great
pecuniary value. Many European in
dustrtes owe their success to this ar
fistic sense SO assiduously cultiYat-
go by their governments.
The president realizes the necessity
of surrounding our own people with.
the best art Of all ages In order that
this artistic sense may be cultivated
In this country, which is at a distinct
disadvantage in this respect as com
pared with the countries of the Old
World because it has not received
an art heritage from the past. He
says, So far from there being a tar
iff on works Of art brought into the
country thsir Importation should be
encouraged in every way
