 Four of the Democratic State ofncers in New York are candidates for the par ty nominatoin for Governor. and as all of them were elected to their present positions on the Democratic- c-Independ- ence League ticket. 1t is a reasonable aasuuption that they expect like po- TticaI arr .ngement in the next State campaign. If such is the dependenee 1t augurs III for the Democracy or New york.

Pianoa and orgaaa.

Boston Evening Transcript.
 More than twice as many pianos as organs are now being made in the Unit ed States. The product of 1905 was 113.o65 reed organs. with an aggregate value of s4.162.0o0. and 901 pipe organs. with an aggregate value of $9,981.000. The manufacture Of reed organs is not appreciably increasing in the United States. for the product of 1900 was 107,S30. In Massachusetts the product ion of reed organs is actually declining, and Illinois is now the leading State. gans are made in the Middle West and presumably find their market in that section of the country. Eastern homes which would have been proud of a reed organ fifty years ago are now content with nothing but an upright piano. In pipe organs, however. Massachusetts Is the leading State. and there Is mark ed increase of production from bT2 in 1900 to 900 in 1905.

HOW TO BE 4BoRN AGA1N.r

Drop Worry aud Play Golf is the Pre-
 seriPtiOR that Helped Rockefeller. New York World.
 Doctor" said the rich and hustling New York millionaire to his physician, T am all broken up. I can't sleep, can't eat Everything grates on my nerves. I think am booked for King dom Come. Can you save me?'
 Certainly" said the distinguished specialist with grim smile, handing out the following prescription:
 Drop all business cares.
 Take regular exercise.
 Keep in the open air.
 Forget everything but play and play as though your life depended on it."
 That prescription cured John D. Rockefeller" said the specialist. "and if you follow the directions 1t will cure you. It cost Rockefeller S5, 0O0, 900, so his physician. Dr. BIggar, says, but It was cheap. for he has been born again and is boy ready to live to be hun dred" "
 Can a man of 54, who Is ''all broken up" be rejuvenated by dropping bus mess and devoting himself to recrea- tion? This question was asked of sev- eral prominent physicians and life ln- surance experts, all of whom answered in the affirmative.

JUST LIKE Hrm.

The Philadelphia Public Ledger doesn't think very highly of the Pres ident's speech at Provincetown. Mass It refers to the fact that 1t was a rule with Salmon P. Chase never to make a political speech upon the Fourth of July. He vigorously contended that the anniversary of the nations ,inde- pendence should not be marred by par tisan speech. If some such considera- tions had influenced President Roose- welt when he was invited to Province town. Mass. to attend meeting called to dedicate a monument to the PiI- grims of Cape Cod, we should not have had his latest deliverance breathing the spirit of defiant party politics. In that case the President would have embraced the occasion to speak of matters concerning which the audience had gathered to hear, and the coun- try would have been saved many of those disquieting reflections now run ming through the public mind"
 Surely The Ledger doesn't know so little of President Roosevelt as to imagine that he would be governed by propriety or precedent? What the real statesmen of the country have done or refrained from doing is not in his judgment an example for him to fol- low. In speech making, as in most other things, he Is law unto him. self, and if he should choose to go into g crowded church on Sunday and deliver a violent partisan speech he would expect the country to applaud him. little thing like propriety never stands in his way when he has something that he wants to say. and he seems to consider it mark of courage and independence to say the wrong thing at the wrong time.
 We have often wondered whether 1t Is really a lack of perception-or or mere bravado that causes Roosevelt to make so many blunders in public. It Is rare indeed that he makes a speech with out one or more serious breaks. Even in his quiet talks to public men or to newspaper reporters. where one might suppose he could better guard his ut terances, the same disregard of pru- dence and propriety is not uncommon. And, what is still less creditable to him, when he is afterwards made aware that something he has said is not good politics he gets out of 1t by asserting that he has been mtsquoted. At least. he attempts to do so, but the general public has reached a point where it has little confidence in his memory.
 On the occasion alluded to by The Ledger there was no cause or excuse for bringing in politics in any form whatever. The audience assembled to celebrate the landing of the Pilgrims, and there was not loop-hole through which a man with proper conception of the fitness of things could bring in politics. But little did he care for pro priety or even common courtesy to- wards his hearers. He saw a chance to indulge in some of his characteristic buster and vocal fireworks and took advantage of it. We suppose 1t is his way, but 1t is not a good way.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 2s, 1907.

The Montgomery Advertiser speaks of Secretary Taft as Roosevelts man Friday, a characterization hardly just to the big secretary. The Washington Post has boiled the utterances of MT. Roosevelt and MT. Taft on a subject very near and dear to The Advertiser and to all of us which makes a dif- ference between the men as wide as it Is possible. The following parallels tells the story:
 TAFT. ROOSEVELT.

 Here Is Taft. the Jeffersonian Demo- crat, and Roosevelt, the Hamiltonian Republican, on the issue of Federal power. There appears no Man Fri Hay here.-Chattanooga Times.
 Taking that deadly parallel" alone it would seem that there is at least one point of vital disagreement be- tween them, but in general way Taft may be considered the mouthpiece of Rooseveltism.

1t is not often the woman who sits
a theatre and sheds tears over the
lad plight of the heroine in the play
Who is tenderest and most sympa-
hetic in her own family circle; nor is
he girl who would stop an angry
iriver from beating his horse the
me who is most kind to her small
brothers and sisters at home. Public
demonstrations of grief are not as
leep As the feelings which well up
md overflow when their possessor is
private.
In the early Victorian period wom-
III shrieked and wept and had hyster-
cs on every possible occasion, and it
vas considered quite the proper

emotions in those days; they fell into
Iwoons whenever they heard bad
lews, they wept copiously in public
whenever they were touched; they

To-day this is not so. The present
generation of women pride them

ADDITION TO a Persian ianb nuff she

object, pale red in color, which she
calmly proceeded to eat. A curious
man, who could not make out just
what it was she was eating, changed
his seat at the next station and took
one opposite the woman. With a
proper degree of circumspection he
got good look at the interior con-
struction of the fruit he thought she
was eating, for it looked like plum.
To his great surprise he discovered it
was tomato. And when she had
finished the first one she began on the

Poplin is very serviceable mate
rial for morning shirt waist dresses.
The pony coat is an especially
appropriate design for the eques-
trienne.
Groups of tucks or pleats stitched
well down the skirt provide ample
fulness at the foot.
The sleeves of some of the newest
models in separate cloaks are of mod
crate size only and quite shapely.
Black ribbon bows with cut steel
or rhinestone buckles are used for or
namenting. dressy gowns of all colors.
Tucks are sure to appear on skirt,
bodice or sleeves, sometimes on all
three, of this seasons costumes.
Soft trimmings, like feathers and
choux of tulle, render becoming the
stiffest and most severe shapes in mil
linery.
A favorite shape for fanciful skirt
trimming is the letter J, inverted or
not, carried out in velvet or braiding
and edged with little ruches.
A black lace gown trimmed with
white lace and accompanied by large
white hat and white gloves makes a
very stunning evening costume.
The turnover collar run with rib
bon which terminates in small bow
at the front is smart mode of neck
dressing with the tailored blouse.
The evening coat is expressed in
large variety of materials and de-
signs, characteristic feature on all
such garments being ample width of
sleeves.
Quite fancy prevails for trimming
small hats in symmetrical fashion, as
for instance, wing on each side of a
turban caught by rosette and
buckle at each side of the front.

The Poverty of England.

The poverty of the English Ian
guage is exemplified by a circular
which is making the round of a su-
burb and inviting subscriptions to a
testimonial to the station-master. It
comes from one who styles himself
the longest resident the sad phys
ical fact being that he is probably
the shortest, although in bulk and
rotundity he makes up for the inches
he lacks in height. Here is case
in which the very clumsiness of the
German language would be an ines
timable help, for then this gentleman
could quite correctly describe himself
"the for-the-longest-ti
sidingest'' individual Those COM
pound adjectives of the Teutons may
be awkward. but they express what
the user means, and insure accuracy.

Don't impoverish your family by
insisting on an extravagant wedding.
The show lasts but short time; the
poverty sometimes consequent upon
it remains.
Don't invite everybody you ever
heard of in order to get presents.
Every. present is a mortgage on your
future income. Down to the third
generation you will have to pay pres
ent for present, says Home Chat.
Unless you are to go much in So
ciety, choose your gown for its use

you have seen that have cost no end
of money and have been worn only
once, possibly twice
