REPUBLICAN, CAMPAIGN IA Cities

REPUBLICAN, CAMPAIGN TACTICS.
The attempt to besmirch the character Of
Judge Crothers is lame beginning for the
Republican campaign. 1t robs the contest
of the dignity which should distinguish an
appeal to the people, injects an element
which tends to overthrow reason and sub
stitute prejudice and vituperation in its
place, and at once lowers the Republican
party to level to which self prospecting
opponent cannot descend.
1t shows, too, that the Republicans and
their allies are afraid to meet the solid issues
of the campaign and to argue the reasons
for the change they profess to desire-de-
yelops. in fine, weakness in their cause
that is inherent and which the citizen will
be quick 10 observe and prompt to resent.
1t would really avail nothing to discuss
the details of these charges, for they have
been already practically dismissed from the
public mind as flimsy in themselves and
based upon the flimsiest of evidence. Their
real value to the people of Maryland lies in
the fact that they enlighten US as to the
In6tuUuS hUu tut lOepSStouiity WI ehS i"Sn
of ny Of the present management of the Re
publican party, and warns us of the dan
ger of placing the conduct of our State
affairs in the hands of men who are prone
to adopt the low devices of politics and are
willing TO besmlrch the good name of the
commonwealth to accomplish their ends
1t is gratifying to observe that up to the
present moment no attempt has been made
by the Democrats to meet these tactics In
kind, and it is to be hoped that no provoca-
ton land there may be many of them) will
induce our campaign managers to depart
from the dignity and earnestness which the
importance OF the issues demands. Circum-
stances have combined to give the Demo
cratic party commanding advantage at the
outset of the contest, and nothing will
strengthen 1t so much in the public esteem
as sharp and well-denned contrast to its
enemy. 1t can we'll afford to go to the peo-
Pile with its candidates and its platform, and
the appeal they make to the common sense,
the seli.respect and the civic pride of the
intelligent voters of the State.

PRESSES OF JOAN OF ARC
pjspute as to Whether Famous Maio of Orleans Was Blonde
 or Brunette. l.

Was ,Joah of Arcs hair fair or dark? That perpetual and palpitat' ing subject of discussion has come to the front once more in France in consequence of the quarrel between M. Clemenceau and the people ot Orleans over the annual fetes. A writer in the Figaro has summed up the evidence, which seems to be as follows;
 1 A number of writers have con- cluded that Pucelle's hair was dark, but their conclusions are all derlVed from two sources-the testimony of a writer who was not born until after Joan's death, and the famous single black hair, found in 1S44, at tached to the wax seal of a docu- ment addressed by Joan to the town of Riom. Authorities, however, de- clare that the practice of sealing with hair was very rare, ana that it had quite disappeared before the fifteenth century.
 On the other hand, portrait ex- ists in the museum at Orleans which in all probability dates from about 145O, or less than 20 years after the heroine's death, and in that DOT trait she is represented with fair hair. Other paintings and writings of but little later date bear the same testimony, so that on the whole the balance of evidence goes to show that sIa bonne Lorraine" had far, not dark, tresses.

TOWN BEHIND THE TIMES.

While in Scotland last autumn l arrived at Maxwelltown, Kirkcud- brightshire, and wanting a stamp for picture postcard 1 inquired for the post office, but to my surprise l was informed the town had neither post nor telegraph office.
 Investigation revealed that the town had population of more than 5000 inhabitants, being also a burgh, with its provost, town coun- cil and bailies. This unique town has to depend on Dumfries-nearly three miles distant-for everything of a postal nature.-London Tit Bits.

LIFE INSURANCE A SACRED
 TRUST.
Responsibilities of Officers and pf.
 rectors.

Evidently President Kingsley or the New York Life Insurance company has learned the great lesson of the times with respect to the responsibil' ity and duty of directors of corpora, tions. Speaking to the new board Of trustees, on the occasion of his cleo tion to the presidency, he emphasized the fact that life insurance is more than a private business, that life in surance trustees are public servants, charged at once with the obligations of public service and with the respon- abilities that attach to a going busi- ness which at the same time must be administered as trust"
 He also realizes that similar respon- abilities rest upon the officers of the company. 'I understand" he says, your anxiety in selecting the men who are day by day to carry this bur- den for you, who are to discharge this trust in your behalf, who are to ad- minister for the benefit of the people involved the multitudinous and exact ing details to which it is impossible for you to give personal attention. My long connection with the New York Life-covering nearly twenty years my service in about every branch of the company's working organization, gives me, as I believe, a profound ap- preciation, not merely of the heavy burden you have placed on my shoul- ders, but of the standards of efficiency, the standards of faith, the standards of integrity, which must be main tained at all times by the man who serves you and the policyholders in this high Office."
 Best of all, perhaps, he feels that words are cheap, and that the public will be satisfied with nothing short of performance. My thanks, therefore, he continues, flor an honor which out ranks any distinction within the reach of my ambition, cannot be expressed in words; they must be read out of the record I make day by day"

COULDN'T KEEP TT.
Kept 1t Hid from the Children.

'We cannot keep Grape-Nuts food in the house. It goes so fast have to hide it, because the children love it so. It is just the food have been looking for ever so long; something that l do not have to stop to prepare and still is nourishing."
 Grape-Nuts Is the most scientifically made food on the market. It is per fectly and completely cooked at the factory and can be served at an in- stants notice, either with rich cold cream, or with hot milk if hot dish is desired. When milk or water is used, little sugar should be added, but when cold cream is used alone the natural grape-sugar, which can be seen glistening on the granules, is sui ficiently sweet to satisfy the palate. This grape-sugar is not poured over the granules, as some people think, but exudes from the granules in the process of manufacture, when the starch of the grains is changed from starch to grape-sugar by the process of manufacture. This, in effect, is the first act of digestion; therefore, Grape Nuts food is pre-digested and is most perfectly assimilated by the very weakest stomach. There's a Rea- son."

HIS SUNDAY TEETH.

"See that old farmer chap, with the dropsical cotton umbrella?" said a city dentist, pointing to a fellow passenger in a Broadway car. "Well, sir, he's worth a half million though I didn't suspect it until l had done a professional job for him.
 "He was referred to me by a mutual friend in his home town. He wanted plate for the upper jaw, and surprised me by rejecting a rubber one. T want the best,' he said. 1'm so now, and l guess l might as we'll have it.
 "He further surprised me by leav- ing an order for a solid gold plate, value $1OO-and he pulled out a roll as big as your arm to leave the deposit.
 "Seyeral months after delivery ] met him and asked how the gold plate and new teeth worked. Fin est in our town, I tell ye,' he said. But I ain't wearin' lem, only on Sundays. That saves 'em, ye see.'

MADE A NEW FASHION.
Good Joke Played in Old Days on
 WouId-Be Fashionable.

Old Camden, in his Remains" tells a good story of trick played by 8 knight upon a would-be fashionable shoemaker Sir Philip Calthrop purged John Drakes, the shoemaker of Norwich in the time of King Henry VIII, of the proud humor which our people have to be of the gentlemen's s cut. This knight bought as muc1 fine French tawny cloth as should make him a gown, and sent it to the taiior's to be made. John Drakes, shoe maker, coming to this tailor's and s~e- Ing the knights gown cloth lying there, bid the tailor buy cloth of the same price and pattern and make it of the same fashion as the knights. Not long after the knight, coming in to the tailor to be measured for his gown, and perceiving the like cloth lying there, asked whose it was. John Drakes', the shoemaker, who will have it made of the self-same fashion that yours is made Of" Then make mine as full of cuts as the shears will make it!" John Drakes had no time to go for his gown till Christmas day, when he meant to wear it. Perceivng the same to be full of cuts, he began to swear at the tailor. T have done naught but what you bid me-" quoth the tailor. for as Sir Philip Calthrop's garment is, even so have I made yours By my latchet!" quoth John Drakes, T will never wear gentlemen's fashions again!"-London T. P.'s Weekly.
