Centenarians and tine Bath.

Ones heart goes out to the aged
Irishwoman who was up against the
Keynsham Guardians in the matter
of a bath. They desired that she
should take the statutory bath. She
refused. She alleged that she had
not done such a thing for fifty years.
And she had reached the age of SO
without any truck with this modern
fad of washing. She is with the ma
jority. The centenarians, as a rule,
don't wash. Many aged peasants

villages. One typical old fellow, of
vague but advanced age, ('tmight be
an 'undred," was the general opin-
ion,) was worried about his hair,
which was thinning. The doctor had
advised washing the head. Wash

FOOLED THE PREACHER,
A Doctors Brother Thought Postum
Was Coffee.

A wise doctor found out coffee was
hurting him so he quit drinking it.
He was SO busy with his practice,
however, that his wife had to write
how he fooled his brother, a clergy
man, one day at dinner. She says:
Doctor found coffee was injuring
him and decided to give Postum a
trial, and we have used it now for
four years with continued benefit. In
fact, he is nov free from the long
train of ills that follow coffee drink
ing.
ITO show how successful we are in
making Postum properly, l will relate
an incident. At a dinner we gave,
doctor suggested that we serve Pos
tum instead of ordinary coffee.
Doctors brother, a clergyman,
supposed it was old fashioned coffee
and remarked, as he called for his
second cup, If you do preach against
coffee / see you haven't forgotten how
to make it. ="
This goes to show that well-made
fully boiled-Postum has much the
flavor and richness of good coffee al
though 1t has an individuality all its
own. A ten days trial will prove that
it has none of the poisonous effect OF
ordinary coffee but will correct the
troubles caused by coffee. There's
a reason" Name furnished by Pos
tum Co., Ltd, Battle Creek, Mich.

KILLS JERSEY CHARTERS.
Annual House Cleaning of Delin.
uuent 1900 Corporations.

Trenton, N. J.-Governor Stokes
issued a proclamation revoking the
charters of more than 1900 New Jer-
sey corporations which have failed to
pay the annual franchise tax levied
by the State for the fiscal year of
1905-'06.
The proclamation is an annual at.
fair, provided by the corporation
laws for the wedding out of delin.
quent corpora lions, and it seldom
makes its appearance without sensa.
tional stories of a great fight being
waged against corporate interests by
the State.
The fact is that the revoking OF
the charters of even 1900 companies
has little effect upon the business
world, since a large percentage OF
the corporations involved are with.
out actual existence, except on paper.
1t is estimated that probably
eighty per cent. of the delinquent
companies have never transacted any
actual business since their incorpora.
ton, many of them having failed
even to obtain subscribers to $1,000
worth of stock, which is the minimum
amount with which they may start
business.

painting the building, testified that

AIR THREE GRAFT SCANDALS
Revelations at San Francisco,
Harrisburg and Albany.
Testimony Showing How Huge Sums
Were Divided by Roodlers-
Wealthy Men Involved.

San Francisco, Cal.-Abe Ruef, the
political boss of San Francisco, when
he learned that he had been indicted
on seventy-two counts in the gigantic
bride scandal, offered to confess if
promised immunity. The offer was
made to Detective Burns, who is
guarding him in the San Francisco
Hotel.
In all the amount of money in
volved in the disclosures will reach
$1,000, 000. Of this sum nearly one
half was given up by the city rail-
roads for franchises. One telephone
company, it is asserted, paid $780,.
900, and another just half that sum-.
Two Supervisors confessed as soon
as they appeared before the Grand
Jury and the others soon followed
their example. AS told to the jury,
the railroad fund of $45O,O00 was
so divided that Ruef got $175,0 900,
while the shares of the Supervisors
ran from $4,000 down to $4,000
each. The Supervisors got $4,000
each from n telephone company
and $3.50 from a gas company.
In the confessions made relative
to the actual taking of money by the
Supervisors it was not brought out
that Mayor Schmitz has direct con-
nection with the deals made with the
members of the Board of Supervisors.
In the majority of cases Ruef dealt
with n man, who passed the money
out to his associates.
First and most important was the
deal by which the United Railroads
got an overhead trolley franchise.
Ruef demanded $45O,000 to carry
through the transaction. This none
was drawn in installments calculated
to be small enough to divert sus-
picion.
After giving $4,000 to the Super
visors and $4,000 for a person Ruef
insisted must be taken care of, but
who may never have received the
money, $280,000 was left to be d.
vided between Schmitz and Ruef.
The corruption surrounding the
franchise granted to the Home Tele-
phone Company vas even worse.
Another transaction was the prize
fight Doodle of $4,000. James Coff-
roth, Willis Britt, Morris Levy and
Eddie Graney, known as the fight
trust" each subscribed $4,000 to Sc
cure the exclusive privilege of prize
fight permits for 1906.
