MISSOURI STRONG FOR TAFT
Dickey, Fairbanks Friend, Aban.
dons Hope and BoOms Taft.
After Conference with the Vice
President. Missouri state Chair
man Expresses New Views.

Kansas City, Oct. 23.-Walter s. Dickey.
chairman OF the Republican State com
mittee, in an interview to-day gave up
hope for Fairbanks. and declared that
Taft is the choice for President.
Mr.. Dickey has arranged for a series
Of meetings in the different Congressional
districts TO naet Republican workers and
party leaders. The first will be held at
Galiatin November 1, and others will fol-
low at convenient dates. The decision Of
Mr.. Dickey to come out for Taft probably
is due to the fact that Fairbanks himself
realizes be can't win the nomination.
Dickey is a personal friend of Fair
banks. and as a fellow-miIlionaire, be-
lever in the Fairbanks business policy.
In fact. the position Of Dickey greatly
worried the friends Of Taft in Missouri.
1t was Dickey who was largely instru-
mental in stopping a vote Of indorse-
ment for Taft In st. Louis.
When the State committee and Dickey
met Fairbanks here Monday and held a
conference with him at the Baltimore
Hotel. neither would tell what took place,
but it is believed that the Vice President
told Dlckey enough to cause the latter
TO abandon any hope Of seeing Fairbanks
in the Presidential chair.

way TO Atlanta, Ga, where he is to de-

Mr.. Chanler, who was in town but half
an hour, permitted himself to be inter
viewed by half a score Of newspaper men.

date for the Presidency. He hesitated to
be quoted about the present Wall street

The Herrinus' Heads,

Miracles are not only Of religion.
Perhaps readers may have forgotten
the strange adventure of the great
Johann Sebastian Bach. The story
was told by Bach himself and Is there
fore, we may be assured, substantial
ly true. Bach was very young man
at the time. His chief object then was
to hear great organist Of Hamburg
named Reinken. He was very poor,
and on one of these journeys, return
ing home, he found himself destitute
and yet far from Luneburg. So he sat
down on a bench outside an inn and
tried to dine on the smell of the cook
ing. Suddenly a window was thrown
open above and a couple of herrings'
heads fell at his feet. He picked them
, and discovered in each a piece Of
money! He could not find out who
his benefactor had been. But he made
a good use of the gift, for he immedi-
ately tramped back to Luneburg to
hear Reinken once more. However it
happened, it was a miracle. But Bach
was dwelling in the regions of the
miracle.-London Academy.

The Rise of a Painter.

Only painters looked long at the PIC
ture which Eugene Carriere exhibited
at the salon of 1877, and for a dozen
years afterward, while his portraits
and his studies of children and women
steadily gained in distinctive charac-
ter, they puzzled and repealed the I'M

the Century. Their merging varied

then part of the public, then even
the ministry Of fine arts. In 1889 he
was decorated, and in the next year,
when his paintings were seen at the
then new Salon du Champ de Mars
isolated in single group, Carriere be-
gan to be more widely understood. His
fervid sincerity reverberating, as it
were, from picture to picture destroy
ed all suspicion Of pose. and as his
technic grew familiar the sculptur-
esque solidity of his heads and figures
appeared through that mist in proof Of
his genius of eye and hand.

What BARRIERS Must Know,

The barber spoke Indignantly.
"A doctor, lawyer or a divine" he
said, learns his business in three or
four years, and afterward he is won
derfully looked up to. It takes US
BARRIERS many, many more years to
learn our business, but who is there
that looks up to us? On the contrary,
we are rather looked down on.
"Yet think Of all a good barber must
know today.
HE must not only shave and cut
hair and trim boards beautifully. He
must understand facial massage, sing
ing, hairdressing, undulating, dyeing,
wigmaking and switchmaking, and he
must also be able to compound pleas

Rice In the Salt.


There is no denying the fact that
salt will not run out of a shaker in
humid weather. It is a very clever
mineral; knows enough to stay in
when 1t rains. There is no better ba-
rometer. The best thing ever known
to cause the salt to run is rice. Heat
a teaspoonful Of rice on the stove and
put it in the salt shaker with the salt.
The hot rice quickly absorbs all the
moisture and the salt issues forth as
dry as the sands of the desert. Twen-
ty grains of rice are sufficient for a
small shaker. Although it has only
pinholes In the top, the salt will not
pack in the most humid weather.-New
York Press.
