Harrisburg, Pa, May 20--After one
OF the hardest fights within the party
In several years, the democratic state

Hon. Shiller B. Herman, distin.

Portland, Oregon, who was recently on
an eastern trip, is among those strong

cussion over Cooper and his medicines,
which has ragged for the past year in
cities visited by the young man on his
educative campaigns, as he calls them.
Cooper was explaining his new the.
Ories and medicines to Boston people
during the Oregonian's visit to that
city, and in a recent interview Mr.
Herman said: "My trip east accom-

Dividinu the Responsibility.

Early in Baron Huddleston's career
at the bar he shared rooms with an
other barrister. BOdllin went one
evening to take tea and wine with
the future baron. AID he particularly
noticed the dirty. sloyenly appearance
of the clerk who waited upon them,
and of whom the host had for the
nonce assumed exclusive possession.
Bodkin strongly advised Huddleston
to insist on a change in the treatment
of the youngsters person and ap-
pearance, and said it was scarcely de-
cent to have person in that dlngy
condition about him. Il do not mucn
like to interfere" was the reply, me

1 at the utmost / cannot claim more
than half of him."
"Then," said Bodkin, II would, at all
events, make him wash my half OF

''Alias Shaheen," reiterated the ac-

Of course, no police justice would
ever submit tamely to such foolish

standing face to face with trouble
when a police officer explained that
he was a Syrian and told the literal
truth about his name. Much moHiaed,
Justice Roll extracted IS from Alias

and allowed him to go on his way re-

THE TOURISTS TRIBUTE.
Enormous Sum Spent Annually by
Americans in Europe.

Enormous Sum Spent Annually by
Americans in Europe.
Germany has been doing some fig
uring on the annual profit to Europe
from the American tourist invasion.
1t is assumed that 100000 persons
make flying trip across the Atlantic
each year, and their expenditures, ex-
elusive of steamship tickets. are av-
eraged at $76O a head. or a total OF
1928, 200.
This sum is modestly divided among
the railroads, hotels and boarding
houses, tailors and dreSsmakers and
art dealers. 1t is estimated that 80
900 American women buy more or less
clothing in Paris every year, and that
they leave $S0O0.00O as minimum
with the dressmakers and $1,5OOOOO
with the milIiners.
For Curios and articles to be kept
or made presents as mementoes OF
the trip, Americans spend about ST.
100000 in Paris every year. The
amount of tribute" thus paid to the
Old World by the New has increased
at a fixed rate every year until the
present. There is some alarm now
lest American liberality be checked
by the greed of those who profit by
it The outrageous prices asked often
three and four times the current local
value of articles. have been detected
by many visitors and many promising
deals II is said have been Summarily

"Hanqed" and "Hung."

Perhaps the bible has had and in
fiuence in preventing many people
from distinguishing between the uses
of hanged and hung" says Lon
don writer. They hanged Hamen,
but the Jews in captivity also hanged
their harps upon the willows" and in
the New Testament we read 1T were
better for him that milestone were
hanged about his neck" If hanged
was correct in either sense in the
days of the Authorized Version those
who are not strong upon grammar
may be subconsciously induced to be-
lieve that hung" is correct in both
senses now But it is curious that
the exclamation I'll be hanged nev-
er appears as ''I'll be hung!"

of a barkeep in the residential district
and the other leaned against the cOun-

brownie that former a break in the

and with an unsteady Never mind!'

down his glass with smile.

The customer turned irresOlutely
Did you see those eyes moye?" he
asked. "They work by clockwork

The man came back to the bar and
raised the cocktail glass with trem'
bling hand. How did you guess it?'
he demanded.
