THE LEGISLATURE.

The Legislature OF 1908 is doing IS
work well, even if it is no, establishing
record for speed. The week before the
Thanksgiving recess showed real progress
aud more than hundred measures
were killed or boosted along toward final
passage. Many parsed both branches
aud have been signed by the Governor.
4 perfect food of private bills amending
sone charter, or giving pay to some one
or Incorporating some new company
have been passed and the slate has been
pretty nearly cleaned up. The recess
over everybody will devote their time
to discussion OF the tax problems, of
sets, purity of elections educational
questions and the larger appropriations.
The week referred to was not devoted
to private bills of no general Importance.
The deer bill, about which there has
been 30 much talk and 30 much senti.
ment has finally passed the Senate and
will be law. This bill passed the house
early in the session but has Oeen held up
in the Senate to await the result of the
open season of 1908. The passage Of
the bill now gives only one year in which
to give it t,ial before the next legisla-
ture meets. The results OF next year 3
open season will determine the wisdom
of the bill. The bill as passed permits
the shooting of one deer, either buck, or
doe, between sunrise and sunset during
the last full week in October. The bill
was in jeopardy in the Senate. The
night before the bill came up for pas
sage the members had been to the fish
and game banquet and heard President
Evarts speak in opposition to the bill
and many had gone home feeling that
the bill would surely be killed. The
bill came up while Senator Finn was in
the chair and after spirited discussion
a vote was taken and it was found to be
a tie, whereupon Senator Finn who was
personally opposed to the passage of the
measure voted in its favor aud the bill
was passed. The Senator had been
counted among those opposed to the
passage, but he explained his action by
saying that although he was personally
opposed to it, he knew that his copstit-
uents wanted it.
Another important measure to pass
both branches is the one establishing a
state Board of Education. The Board
consists Of the Governor, Supt. of Eauca-
ton and three members to be appointed
by the Governor. This board has COM
Fiete control over Normal schools of
the state and over such normal-in-
dnstrial schools as may be established.
Members of the Board are to be paid
S5 per day and necessary expenses.
The bill creating an Agricultural Com
missioner and abolishing the present
board of three members has passed the
House and there seems to be no .disposi-
ton to kill it in the Senate. One Sena.
tor said thai if it suited the farmers
it ought to suit the Senate and that
probably means that the S enate will
offer no opposition. This is not the
original bill that was presented to the
House by Mr.. Hitchcock, hut is com.
mittee bill compromising matters by
! combining the agricultural bill with the
forestry bill. 1t appropriatss sl2, O0C

Live Mule, Dead Boar.

An odd hunting adventure recently
befell a British officer In India. He
was mounted on a feet mule and was
running down a wild boar, intending
to lance 1t, when the animal turned,
bit the mules leg and then fed again.
The mule screamed savagely, and in a
minute she had deposited the officer
on the ground. Then, kicking out
vigorously five or six times, as IL to
see that her legs were all right, she
started after the unfortunate pig at
lightning speed, with fury in her eyes
and vengeance in the crook Of her
ears. The race was not long, and the
wild boar soon realized that he had
exasperated a relentless enemy. He
was soon. winded, and the mule, com.
ing up with him, caught him by the
backbone with her teeth, crunched il
and threw him to the ground and
then, before he could rise, kicked hin
SO viciously that he was dead boar
in less than no time. Then the mule
returned to her master and gave utter
ance to "heehaw" Of triumph.

A Lone Dance.

& The longest dance Oh record Is prob
ably that Of William Kemp, an actor
Of some celebrity in the reign of Queen
Elizabeth. He was a comedian and
danced all the way from London to
Norwich. ;s! m
He was attended by taborer, q
servant and an oyerseer. and 1t was
doubtless a good thing for him that
there were no omnibuses or police then,
for they would probably have imposed
more impediments in the way of his
progress than did the country people.
He started with several presents Of
greats and crooked sixpences for luck,
and, laden with these, he danced to
Stratford with out rest.
Subsequently he went in for early
rising to avoid market people, and,
though suffering from a sprain Of the
hip which he received, he danced II
well again, to the delight Of the crowd
which accompanied him. some 200 In
number.
When he reached Norwich he had to
dance in and out of the city twice,
for his overseer missed him in the
crowd and made him do the distance
over again to avoid any possibility OF
error.--London Graphic.

A Theater Dialogue.

The curtain had fallen ON the first
act at a Broadway theater when a
man, correctly attired and apparently
Of refinement, leaned toward a woman
occupying seat directly in front of
him--a woman who had naturally re-
moved her hat, but whose hair was
arranged in the extreme Of fashion,
aided by stboughten" puffs.
II beg your pardon, madam" said
the man in an audible whisper, 'ttbut il
you would remove your hair and sub
stitute your hat I believe ! would be
able to see something more Of the

The woman didn't scream. She
didn't even faint. She merely turned
around and rephed:
"Jack, Il you weren't my brother
I'd slap your face."--New York Globe.

"A Metaphor with q History.

To "know a hawk from hernshaw''
is a metaphor with a curious history.
1t Is comparison drawn from fal.
conry. ''Hernshaw'' is a corruption
Of ''heronshaw," or young heron, a bird
which was a common prey Of the fal.

shaw is therefore to be able to dis
tinguish the falcon from its prey. A
further c6lloquial corruption crept into
the phrase-'to know a hawk from q

tween a hawk and hernshaw was
found not to be strong enough for the

The moment you take Kodol your
Digestion Starts

Kodol is liquid, like the diges-
tive juices. 1t acts the moment
you take it.
The pain ends, irritation stops,
the food is completely digested.
That is not true Of other diges-
tiers, for they rely largely on pep
sin.
Pepsin digests albumen perfect
ly, but that is all it can do.
Starch, fats and phosphates
form most of your food. Pepsin
can't digest those.
And it can't do bowel digestion.
Yet half of digestion is done by
the bowel fluids.
It requires many ingredients to
make perfect digester, and Kodol
contains them all.
1t digests any food-any mixture
of foods-completely.
It does all that the stomach
a does-all that the bowels do.
You can see it do this in test
tube, under proper conditions. You
can feel what it does in the stom-
ach. There can be no doubt about
it.
