Tho Inverted Rake.

There is a man in Pittsburg who
will be married in a short while, and
will occupy the house few rooms OF
which he has used during his bach
elor days. He takes the greatest
pleasure in showing his intimate
friends about the place, and Is espe--
cially delighted at the establishment
they express when his own den" is
reached He has always been a quiet,
studious fellow, but as RENTED the
room gives the appearance of the
lounging-place of a regular rounder.
There are racks of long pipes; photo
graphs of actresses are stuck about
the chimney glass; a shelf OF beer
stems runs all the way around the
room, and few feminine gloves.
handkerchiefs, and fans are scattered
about.
'.Great Scott, Jack!" the last visitor
gasped, where did you get this outfit.
and why?"
Bought out a college fellow" was
the complacent reply. Just think
how pleased that dear little girl will
be when she sees all this truck and
thinks how much wickedness she has
won me away from!"-Harper's
Weekly.

=. THE IDEAL ROOSEVELT.

When, in honest indignation. Presi-
dent Roosevelt hold up to public scora
tions whose policy is violence, incite-
ment to crime and bloodshed, he puts
the whole country in his debt Such a
frank and timely deliverance will help
tn keep alive that ideal of Roosevelt
which we all like to cherish.-New York
Evening Post.

THE HELLO GIRL.

There is to be a convention Of "hello
girls This is important information.
The hello girl needs organizing. Her
case has never been presented to the
public. The usual man who stands
first on one foot and then the other
breathing low, deep, swear words
while his ear is glued to the receiver,
places all the blame for bad service on
the girl. When her sweet voice full
of patience comes floating to him
finally he bellows at her with wrath
She is the only thing connected with
the miserable service which he can
yell at, and so he does his best to make
her feel his just anger. 1t is only oc-
casionally that the girl is to blame
She is only human and sometimes her
spirit of long suffering turns bitter and
she makes some impatient and wrath
full patron wait. AS general thing,
however, she is the overworked watch
er at an insufficient keyboard, tangled
up with a mass of badly kept wires,
and she is doing all in human power
to make I'D for poor equipment

cRATEFr1T. APPRECIATION.

Judging by President Roosevelt $
character and all he has ever said and
done since he has been president, the
unanimous request Of the people that
he be a candidate for third term will
not alter his purpose to retire, partly
because he has other reasons than the
third-tern1 tradition The third-term
movement, however, is probably CRATE
full to him because it will put it in his
power to name his successor. If he will
not serve it would be a strange admirer
who would not favor man whom he
has selected to continue his policies

LOYALTY TO "PARTY."

You who are tired of all corruption
and dishonesty in public office: remem-
Der that back of all public corruption
are your little private compromises, the
compromises you made on election day
when you voted with your party and
for so called principles of your party"
even though the men who bossed your
party had put candidates before you
whom you did not trust. You stayed
by the party for what earthly reason,
for what results, for what anything?
And what has the party to which
you have been SO loyal ever given you

FIGHTING THE

The war which this country Is waging
on the write plague grows more vigorous
every year. When the National Associa-
tion for the Study and Prevention or
tuberculosis began active work two
years ago there were only seven definite
state societies in existence.
Since that time eight new state societies
have been organized and In eight other
states provision for similar work has been
made. The distribution of these societies
is a matter OF interest The East and the
middle West seem to be alive to the seri-
BUSINESS of the problem The far West
and the South are backward.
BY the census Of 1900. there were IS
cities with a population OF more than
10000 each. Fifteen of these cities had
organizations two years ago for the pre-
vention OF tuberculosis During the past
two years llcfties have followed suit and
four others have provided for organized
work

BRITAIN
AND GERMANY
HAVE AGREED

The Hague, July 29.-Great Britain and
Germany have practically agreed on a
proposition regarding the establishment
Of an international prize court, under the
terms OF which the tribunal Is made per-
manent and is To have Is judges. The
United States, Japan and six of the great
European powers will furnish one Judge
each. Latin America will supply two.
and the remaining five will be sent from
other countries represented In the peace
conference.
1t is understood further that II the
American proposal regarding a perma-
nent court OF arbitration is adopted. and
this seems most likely that the judges
OF the arbitration court will be also the
judges of the prize court.
The prize court is 10 include two ad-
mirals to be appointed by the belliger-

capacity only. This suggestion was made
