ROOSEVELT STANDS PAT.

President Roosevelt was not con-
victed of sin by the railroad exhorters.
His past course In respect to railroad
control does not seem to him a thing
to be ashamed Of His proposed
further course, based on the fact that
rate regulation Is a vast emptiness
until the true foundation OF rates, the
Debated value. is ascertained. does not
seem thing to shrink from nor Il
proper cause of commercial depression.
This is the substance of the presidents
reply to the pressure applied to iurn
him from his course.
The people of the United States are
pleased to see the president come
through the fiery furnace unsinged.
What has happened. what Is proposed
that any legitimate railroad interest
should fear? Now that the rate regu-
lation principle has been fought out
even Mr.. Hartman acquiesces and be-
lieves in rate regulation. The railroad
managers say that only in few cases
are the roads overcapitaliZed. Why
then should they tren1ble at the pros
pect Of a national examination and
ascertainment Of their values? What
honest interest can be hurt, and what
dishonest interest ought not be?
1t has been great bluff this cry
OF danger from railroad regulation: q
bluff begun to keep 1t from continuing
the logical and needed course. 1t Is the
same bluff that confronted the rate
bill in the first place, the opposition by
interests that never give ground with
out show Of fight, no matter how
well they know themselves to be only
claim jumpers. The president calls the

Don't Kiss Babies"

Woman's Auxiliary to the Anti-Tu-

Male scoffers at the meeting at
tempted to pass a resolution that
kissing be cut out altogether as a
dangerous mode of spreading disease
germs, but we're voted down by the
younger women in the organization.
Franklin Dye, Secretary of the
New Jersey State Board of Agricul-
ture, who was there to tell of the
States work in killing off diseased
milch COWS, started the ball rolling
by demanding that the Don't kiss
the baby" sign be hung in every
household. This, he said, would bar
out aunties, cousins and callers from
planting kisses on the mouths of the
little darlings. "All the work of the
State in getting pure milk will be
thrown away" he said, 'if tubercu-
losis rs to he spread by allowing the
youngsters to be hugged and kissed"
Secretary Dye received applause,
but when DIR. ]. S. Perth, Western
delegate with a wealth of whiskers,
offered a resolution that the society
commit itself to movement to sup
press kissing at all ages, he was
received with cold silence.
kissing is dangerous at all times,

been wiped out by disease first COM

After the defeat of the anti-kiss-
ing measure, Dr. Perth proposed that
sweethearts carry special brand of

kissing, but this was also received

A woman has as much right to

or to stand up in the back of the

to get up and give her seat in the
street car to another woman as a
man has to do any of these very COM
monplace things. Why don't women
do these things, then? For the sim

them.
Men have Just as much right to eat

~a,s Necklace of Eyes.

Mrs. Curtis, the. wife of a Chicago
journalist, possesses a grewsome
necklace, which was exhibited at the
Worlds Fair. The necklace is COM
posed of three rows of human eyes
in a perfect state of preservation,
polished and mounted in gold. The
eyes were obtained from Peru, where
the dead are buried in a sitting posi-
tion, and the hot, dry air acts more
effective than any embalming fluid
in preserving them. A mummy can
there be obtained for a sovereign,
and the eyes alone are much cheaper.
Polished and mounted as they are
in this necklace, they make very
striking ornament Mrs. Curtis only
wore the necklace once, and it was
much admired until her friends were
informed that they we're petrified
human eyes and not gems that were
set in it, when the admiration turned
to repulsion.--Tit-Bi
