Various SCHOOLS" Of Painters.

The Munich Jugend has discovered
FIVE signs by which to detect the
school to which a painter belongs;
QD If he paints the sky gray and the
grass black, he belongs to the good
old classical school, (2) If he paints
the sky blue and the grass green, he
is a realist. (3) If he paints the sky
green and the grass blue, he is an I'M

CHAPTER VlI.-Continued.

Suddenly Darlington thought of the
door not often used that opened into
the hall from her bedroom. He
cursed himself for a fool for not hay
ing thought of It before He ran
thither at once in spite of the fact
that his conduct was attracting the
attention Of the servants passing to
and fro about their various duties.
He tried the handle of the door,
which was shut, and found it was un.
locked. He threw it open. The bed
had not been tenanted, yet Ellen had
certainly undressed, for the gown and
other things she had worn the night
before lay In a tumbled, confused
heap on the floor just where she had
KICKED them Off
My lady's desk stood open before
him. A piece of paper caught his
eye, He dropped the slipper, darted
toward it, opened the paper, which
was addressed to him, and read the
following
"The enclosed pays my last debt to
Lord Darlington, When he reads this,
shall be on the way to my own land.
With the money which he won, he can
buy himself Lady Cecly without the for
mality of Il marriage ceremony and in
her arms he can forget the woman he
sh9med, whom he once loved and who
once loved him."
From the paper as he had torn It
open an inclosure had fallen. He
stopped and picked it up. 1t was the
cheQue on Ellen's bankers for twenty
odd thousand pounds, My lords brain
reeled as he stared from the cheQue
to the note. 1t was as If he had
been struck some powerful blow over
the heart and was for the moment
paralyzed, He sank down in chair
and ga2ed stupidly about him in great
bewilderment.
And then he heard his name called

FARMERS DISCUSS COUNTRY LIFE


Since giving an account of the
Farmers Meeting in District IS to
consider the questions on Country
Life suggested by the Commission
on Country Life, we notice an ac
count Of second meeting at the
Well school house and we are more
than glad to publish their sensible
resolutions:
We commend President Roosevelt
and the Commission thus begun.
We believe: That the lack of
social life is a fundamental barrier
to pleasant living in rural districts.
That farmers too often lack the
spirit of cooperation and harmony,
permitting mistrust and prejudice
to destroy organizations for their
mutual benefit.
That we are not active enough in
supporting and promoting moves
ments for better roads.
That the intelligence and happi-
ness in this community would be
increased by rural free delivery of
the mails.
That farmers should hold them
selves in a more receptive attitude
toward suggestions for improvement
and the results of experimentation
from outside sources.
That farmers should make more
and better use of the information
furnished by government and state
reports of agricultural colleges and
experiment stations
That the farmer should set aside
some time for mental study and
growth, and social life. All work
make life drudgery.
That farmers should effect an
organization in this community to
meet as frequently as convenient
(nOt less than once each monthly
for purposes of mutual improve
ment and social pleasure, one part
of the meeting to consist of a pro-
gram for the discussion of problems
of rural life, particularly those APP
plying to local needs. Information
may be derived from experience,
from government or state reports,
or from various other sources.
That our school system should
| place more emphasis upon the
dignity of labor with the hands,
that the beauties and possibilities of
agricultural life should be taught in
the rural schools, that better qualifi-
cations should be demanded of rural
school teachers and better salaries
paid, that teachers should be train
ed for the teahing of agriculture.
Last, we believe that we should
join all orr efforts in the promotion
of some scheme of irrigation for this
Horse Heaven country.
Committee appointed to draw up
this report: |. W. Darter, w. G..

so anxious was she to see something

Next morning she was called, but did not
answer, and a daughter of her employer
entered the room. She was very sick and
had been so during part of the night. Tea
was prepared for her, but before it was
ready she sank into a stupor. Her pulse
becoming low and her breathing difficult,
a medical mar was sent for and he pro-
nounced her afflicrion to be an attack of

Fresh Air In Street Cars,

Through the efforts OF Health Commits

board Of supervising engineers and the

every car on the two systems will be
equipped with approved ventilating devices
before winter weather sets in. The in

1t is easy to glibly talk of guaranteeing
depositors. but a practical study Of the
question shows the guaranty
scheme which makes the government agree
to do what no human being and no gov
eminent can possibly do-to be one OF the
most dangerous, If not the most dangerous,
schemes, say nothing of its fragrant injus-
tice that has ever yet been dvanced in the
solution of economic problems.
Shall the fact count for nothing that
every experienced and reputable banker in
this country opposes it? Mr.. Bryan says
they are selfish. He would say the same
thing OF a doctor who cautioned you against
giving your child certain foods in case OF
typhoid fever, He would reason in this
easy way that II is natural TO eat and that

Mr.. Bryan is a lawyer who never wrote

line of type; a statesman who never wrote
a law; a philosopher who never entertained
the same opinion twice in succession; a
financier who never capitalized anything
but jawbone; a laboring man with bleached
hands and calloused lungs: a soldier who
never fought a battle; a commoner with his
eye on the gate receipts.

ANY sane man would say at once that

system OF the country would so down,

Those vino have Witnessed the effect OF
these scares know only too well that when
the people want their money, they want II,

isn't the government guaranty behind the

SPENT LAST EIGHT
YEARS IN MISERY
Boston Banker Says His Life Has Been Hope
less for that Length of Time.

Carleton H. Hutchinson, a leading
banker and broker of Boston, with
Offices at 8 Congress Street, in that
city, has recently come out with very
strong statement.
In tie widespread discussion over
Cooper new theory and medicines
which has spread over the country so
rapidly, Mr.. Hutchinson has taken the
side of those who say that Cooper's
theory is correct and his medicine all
that he claims
Mr. Hutchinson's emphatic state
ment is as follows: anyone afflicted
with chronic i'll health and a general
rundown condition caused by stomach
trouble, who does not try this man
Cooper's medicine, is very foolish. l
say this after a most remarkable ex-
perience with the medicine.
Il heard of Cooper's success first
when he was in Chicago, as have a
private wire to that city in connection
with my business. Later, when he
came East, learned more of him and
his theory that stomach trouble causes
most i'll health. I have had no faith
in anything not prescribed by ply
sician for each particular case after
careful diagnosis, but after eight years
of constant suffering, during which
