Bathing.

Cleanliness is next to godliness, and
it is likewise essential to health. There
is no apology for filth, and filth breeds
disease Germs do not Ike cleanliness.
and they almost exert themselves to
avoid 1t, so to keep clean is essential.
Every child should receive either a
sponge or tub bath each day The
skin contains small glands, which
should constantly carry of the poisons
which collect within us When the
skin is dirty these glands do not act
and these poisons are retained and give
rise to III health Bathing keeps their
ducts open, stimulates their action and
thus aids In the process of elimination,
thereby improving the nutrition. IT
ls evident, therefore. that the idea that
frequent bathing IN the winter months
Is dangerous is UNCONSTITUTIONAL Con

Local Overflow.
Happy Days.

TIE vines where roses were are bare.
The drowsy cattle seem to dream
OF days that were serene and fair.
And here and there on every stream
A dead brown leaf goes floating by
Twill soon be time for pumpkin pie.
The posters on the billboards show
That summers gone, that fall is here;
The newest stars begin to glow,
The tan hegins to disappear.
A haze begins to dim the sky
Twill soon be time for pumpkin pie.
The nights are slowly frightening,
The lamb that on the slope~yas gay
And skipped so blithely in the spring
Hangs on the butchers hook to-day;
The summers gone. but what care i!
Twill soon be time fer pumpkin pie.

-Dodgevlle Sun: Supt. T. E. Bray
was at Hollandale Monday to open the
school in that village The principal
who had been engaged resigned at the
last moment, and Supt. Bray's services
were enlisted to secure another princi-
pal. Mr.. Bray engaged Will McGeever
of Cuba City and on account of his not
being able to get to Hollandale until
afternoon, Mr. Bray went there and
took charge of the school until he ar
rived.
Early last spring some wiseacres
predicted hot, dry summer. April was
the coolest April in l6 years and May
was the chilliest in 80 years. Only twice
within the Weather Bureau record were
there cooler Junes than June, 1907. The
average temperature of July was 1873.
Last but not least, it is officially declar-
ed that August of this year has been
"even cooler than the average August. "
AS to rain, there has been enough.
They say an ostrich has no brains.
If this is told on them because they
show no choice between a breakfast of
excelsior and shredded wheat biscuit,
we believe it's unjust. There was one
here at the fair of 1904 to give an eXhi-
bition of ostrich speed, but its mind
was too far away from its legs to get
them to moving and consequently the
race was fizzle. But even at that it
gave us a chance to see the bird that
produces the feathers that make the
milline;'s bill look tall. An ostrich has
body as large as yearling calf, and
it does all of its thinking in head the
size of toothpick holder, which is at
tached to the body by neck longer
than slide trombone.

THAW JURY COMPLETE
TWELFTH JUROR IN CELEBRATED
CASE SECURED.
JEROME is NOT SATISFIED
Makes Efforts to Secure Removal of
Jurymen With Whom De-
Tense Seems Pleased.

New York, n. Y.-The selection of
the twelfth juror came as q complete
surprise at the end of a long and
tedious day-the eighth of the tria,-
and Immediately after this last mem
Der of the trial panel had been sworn
in Justice Fitzgerald adjourned court
until 1920 o'clock Monday morning.
Jerome Not Satisfied.
District Attorney Jerome, who has
been c~ontending since Thursday att.
ernoon for the removal of one of tue
men now in the jury box, but who
has failed to gain the consent of Tie
defendants counsel to a change, was
still reluctant, as court adjourned, 10
begin the actual proceedings without
a further opportunity to plead with
Thaw's attorneys. At his request,
therefore, Justice Fitzgerald ordered
all talesmen who have not yet been
examined to be in court Monday morn
ing ready for jury service in case any
are needed.
Defense Notified to Be Ready.
Mr.. Jereme announced that If there
should be no change in the situation
in the meantime, the state would prU.
coed to place all its direct testimony
before the jury at the Monday mora
ing session. The defense was mott
fed to be in readiness to proceed
by Monday afternoon.
Defense Satisfied and Ready.
I'VE are entirely satisfied with the
jury" said Clifford w. Hartridge,
Thaw's leading counsel, and he added
the intimation that he would not con
sent to any further alterations of the
personnel.
The defense will be ready to pro.
coed the minute the prosecution has
finished it's case" declared John B,
| Gleason, another Of Thaw's attorneys.
State Will Make Opening Brief.
Assistant District Attorney Gar var
will make the opening address for The
prosecution. His remarks will be
brief. The state will then introduce
such witnesses as are necessary tc
prove Stanford White was shot and
killed by Harry X. Thaw on the Mad
ison Square roof garden the night OF
June 25 last. In announcing that tae
introduction will not require more thar
one session of the court, Mr.. Jerome
is evidently of the opinion that The
cross-examination of the states wit
nesses to the actual events associat
ed with the tragedy may not be very
extensive.

A CHARMED U
Rescuers in Stuart Mine Found Bod
les Badly MutiIated.

Charleston, w. Va.-The mutilated
bodies of nine of the victims of Tues
days explosion have been brought to
the surface. Seven were identified
The bodies were brought up by Eo
ward Pickney, inspector of the mine,
and John |. Absolam, district mine
inspector, who were the first to go
down. Their trip was one of great
peril.
The lei remained in the shaft for
three hours and found it a vertitable
charnel house. Mutilated bodies GOV.
cred the bottom of the shaft so thick
ly tlat the two rescuers found it i'm
possible to move above without step
ping on them. They counted &c bod
les, but after sending up nine, were
so exhausted that the others were al
lowed to remain until the cage is put
in working order.
Sixteen more bodies were recovered
from the mine early this morning.
The entries will be penetrated a
sufficient distance to recover the re.
naming bodies. 1t is now regarded
certain none in the mine at the time
of the explosion escaped.

JAPANESE CRISIS
ROOSEVELT ASSERTS WE FACE
WAR WITH JAPAN.
CALIFORNIANS. ARE WARNED
President Declares Order Excluding
orientals From Schools Must
Be Rescinded.

Washington, D. CA most seri'
GUS and unexpected crisis has arisen
in the heretofore friendly relations ex-
listing between the United States and
Japan. The utmost eXertions Of
trained diplomacy, according to Pres
ident Roosevelt himself will be neces-
sary to avert open hostilities, precipi-
tated by Japan.
One paramount concession to Japan
is essential to restore the semblance
of friendship-the educational authorl-
ties of San Francisco must restore Jap
anese children to the same privileges
of public school attendance they en-
ioyed before the fire and earthquake.
1t is stated that the only preventa-
tive of war between the United States
and Japan is the withdrawal OF all
action taken barring Japanese children
from equal participation with white
| children in the common facilities af-
forded for education.
Appeals to CaIifornians.
The president has sent for the pres
ident of the San Francisco board Of
education and the superintendent of
schools, plainly and unequivocally to
inform them that their edict Of non
admission for japanese children must
he withdrawn. He will appeal to their
patriotism. He will ask them as
American citizens to abandon the pol
icy of exclusion. He will advise them
that this is the first step in the direc,
ton of solving the problem without an
open breach.
President Roosevelt, in a conference
lasting less than one hour and a half
convinced the entire California delega'
ton in congress that the existing sit
uation is extremely critical, and they
must make some sacrifice of state
pride for the general good. He did not
d~ifferentiate as between the japanese
government and the Japanese people
but made the broad, sweeping compre
hensive declaration that Japan desires
war, and is seeking a pretext for its
PlOpCSulloh'
Every member of the California del
egation was impressed by the presi
dents utterances. They were salts
fed that a more serious and critica,
situation is at hand than had been pre-
viously anticipated. They promised
to render all possible assistance ii
seeking to obtain the removal of re
strictions imposed on Japanese schoo
children by the educational authorize:
of San Francisco, They also pledged
themselves to maintain a patriotic 81
lence being told by the president tina
publication of the real facts, If for
warded to Toxic, might greatly hastel
the hostilities the administration il
striving to prevent.

BOvINES CAN INFECT MAN
ROYAL ENGLISH COMMISSION ON
TUBERCULOSIS REPORTS.
Commission Declares Cows Milk Re-
sponsible for Most Gases of
Consumption.

London, Eng.-The royal commits
sion on tuberculosis has just issued a
lengthy report on tubercular diseases.
The report sets forth that man is
liable to infection by bovine tubercu-
losis, and that cows milk containing
t%ubercular bacilli is responsible for a
majority of the cases of such infec-
ton.
he report is considered to be of
the greatest Importance, as demon
strating conclusively that the theory
of Prof. Robert Koch, of Berlin, an
nounced in 1900, was based upon in
sufficient and misinterpreted observa-
ton. This commission was appointed
as a result of Prof. Koch's assertion
that bovine and human tuberculosis
were quite distinct diseases. The
chairman Of the commission was the
late Sir Michael Foster.

had a field day of oratory Thursday.
Led off by Representative Bartholdt
of st. Louis with an hours speech,
the friends of projects which had been
omitted or not treated as literally as

renee of Massachusetts, Morrell of

Lawrence of Massachusetts, who at
tempted to defend the river and har-
Dor committee in a flve-minute talk,
had a complaint which they voiced
for their constituents and the people
generally who are behind the great
projects that have been cut out. Two
maiden speeches were made by Cou-
drey of Missouri and Moore of Penn
~sylvania, and each acquitted himself
c%reditably.
Representative T, P, Murphy, Of the
Sixteenth Missouri district, Thursday

his present command at San Francis
co for that post.
Warlike journalists have again de-
clared war with Japan in dispatches

all the points at issue between the
Mikado,s people and the United
States.
