truth of this story Evelyn Thaw told
upon the stand, but as to her truth.
fnlness waen she declared that she re.
peated in detail to Thaw the record
of her experience with White, never
theless, there remains still a dim.
cult task for the counsel for the de.
tense. For the counsel must hereaft-
er, having through the testimony of
Evelyn Tnaw established the basis or
ground for their defense, go on to
oeiineate to the jury the effect OF
that narrative upon the mind of Thaw.
Herein will be opened the whole field
of pathological and psychological ties.
timony. For the Judge will undoubt-
eddy instruct the jury that the laws
of New York State ATE SO written that
no temptation to violence, no impulse,
no brooding, no lurking resentment
or sentiment of revenge can be plead
ed in excuse of a capital crime, un.
less it can be shown beyond reasoaa-
BILE doubt that these passions had so
corroded the mind and SO degenerated
the moral sense that an accused per.
son was not able to distinguish the
difference between the right and
wrong.
The Broken Pistol.
There still remains the testimon.
first offered by tne prosecution, ami
afterward admitted by the defense.
that in the instant after Thaw shot
Stanford White he deliberately broke
his pistol, and then quietly walked
down the aisle toward the eleyatoi.
That action Of breaking the pistol
was OF itself a part of or consequent
upon the act of shooting. Therefore.
the mind operated In both acts as OF
n common impulse, or II they we're
two impulses they we're connected.
But the breaking Of the pistol seems
to Indicate, in the view OF the pros.
e%cution, the reasoning faculty, as
though Taaw intended to demon
strate to those who saw the shooting
and heard the shot that he had no In
tention to do injury to them. The de.
Tense must break down the inference
of reasoning power which is contain.

RARLY NORTHWEST VOYAGES.


Beginning with the American dis
coveries Of John Cabot in 1897, the
search for the northwest passage was
for many years the object of rival ex-
petitions from Denmark, England,
France and Portugal, says A. w.
Greedy, in the Century. 1t was Frobish-
er, however, who in 15767S first gave
a distinct national character to the
quest. John Davis of Davis strait,
followed in three voyages 1858, and
then, in 1912, came the illustrious and
hapless Henry Hudson, whose motto
was that explorers should achieve
what they had undertaken or else give
reasons wherefore 1t will not be-"

mail order houses and the devil. With
its corrupt government, Its overflow
of population, and its vice, the great
city is the menace OF our morals and
our liberties.
The city like the dragon swallows
the vast throngs of country boys and
girls that flock into it, and by and by
when health, and virtue and hope are
gone, spews them out to die In want,
or wander as derelicts over the face
of the earth
And don't you see, my friend, that
when you take the money from the
country town, you destroy the chance
OF success there, and the boys and
girls will follow where you have sent
the money?
This town of yours was founded IN
faith, on the faith in the customs Of
men for hundreds of years to trade at
the nearest town. These merchants
and carpenters, masons and editors
are your neighbors. They have grown
up amongst you or amongst others
like you.
They have put their all in little
business, money, time and hope.
Around the corner there Is little cot
tage, and the wife and the baby-it
may be your grandbaby-wait; and
there is a smile of happiness when
business is good" but the troubled
look comes when business is poor,
They are struggling to live, and pay
for the little home, and by and by ed
ucate the children. They are your
neighbors and friends, not your ene-
mics They work hard-you scarcely
realize how hard-and are not living
high. They have pinned their faith
to the town-your town.
Their success or failure is in your
hands. For your trade they will give
you good returns, and all will prosper
together. II you withdraw your trade,
failure must follow. Some poor strug-
gler must go down facing bankruptcy.
The light must go out Of some wom-
ans eye, and hardship be laid up for
the child.
Even II you could save little BY
sending your patronage to the city, do
you not think 1t the fair thing, the just
thing, the right thing, to trade at the
little home town with those you know,
those whose prosperity and happiness
are In your hands?
For 1t Is written, Thou shalt love
thy neighbor as myself"

HOMEMADE CATARRH CURE.
Sufferers Should Make This" Up and
Try It Anyway.

Any one can mix right at home the
best remedy of its kind known. The
name Cyclone is given to the fol-
lowing prescription, it is supposed, be-
cause of its promptness in driving
from the blood and system every YES
tige Of catarrhal poison, relieving this
foul and dread disease, no matter
where located. To prepare the mix
ture: Get from any good pharmacy
one hali-ounce Fluid Extract Dande-
lion, one ounce Compound Kargon and
three ounces Compound Syrup Sarsa-
parilla. Shake well and use in tea
spoonful doses after each meal and at
bedtime.
This is harmless, inexpensive mix
ture, which has a peculiar action upon
the eiminatvc tissues of the Kidneys,
assisting them to filter and strain
from the blood and system all ca
tarrhal poisons, which, if not eradi-
Gated, are absorbed by the mucous
membrane, and an open sore or ca
tarrh is the result.
Prepare some and try it, as 1t is the
prescription of an eminent catarrh
specialist of national reputation.

the fair, or on holidays.
There during the winter lecture
course you hear great orators and ex.
cellent musicians. The political rallies,
the church conference or association
are held there.
BY and by in the pretty little VII
lage church, whose spire you can see
from your farm, you son will preach
the gospel. In the brick building two
doors from the corner, farmer boy
will open law office, and In the little
frame two blocks away another son
of the SOIL just back from college, will
begin the practice Of medicine.
There is the high school to which
you send your children, and there
after awhile your daughter will teach.
And some day when you find the
farm work too heavy for your age, and
want to get near the children, you Will
build on that grassy corner lot two
doors from the Methodist church and
move to town.
Yes, the town is a mighty good
thing to have, pleasant thing; and
the more you put into 1t the more you
get out of it. For it grows according
to the trade it gets and the more It
grows the more 1t can buy and the
higher will go your land.
The Moral Obligation.
But the last and strongest reason
why it Is right that the country peo-
pie spend their money at home Is the
moral obligation.
The town is yours, yours to ruin or
prosper. The same sense OF obllga'
ton should prompt you to support 1t,
as prompted our old Teutonlc ances.
tors in the forests of Germany to
stand elbow to elbow in protection OF
their village. The same spirit of loyal
ty should inspire you as fired the
Highland Scot to spend his blood for
the welfare OF his clan.
The country town with all Its faults
is the best governed, most enlight'
ened, most moral, and happiest spot
in American civilization. 1t Is good
safe place. Not too swift, nor yet too
slow. In touch with the current OF
progress, but not racing with greed.
The place from which come nearly all
the great business men, lawyers.
scholars, preachers, physicians. The
place where men are neighborly and
helpful.

When the body becomes run down,

anaemic, which is the medical term
