Under the X-ray analysis, the roster of delegates to the Independence leagues first convention, at which William Randolph Hearst uttered the keynote war cry against things in gen
 eral, bore an interesting resemblance to the payroll of the Hearst publica- tions. It was noticed that there were many vociferous voices among the delegates which reminded one of those which cry "Extry'' on the street cor ners of many cities. In explanation 1t was stated that in the Texas delega- tion Tracy Adams, a newspaper "hust- ter" or circulation "pusher," was an active delegate. Chi Red. who draws pay from the Hearst coffers for the same sort of work, was an important delegate from Maine. Tom Butts, a circulation man from Indiana, was a delegate from that state. Nose" An

A Tip to Christmas Shoppers


Already the shops are filled with beau
tiful Christmas goods and the windows OF
the various emporiums are beautifully
decorated The wise woman Is busy with
her shopping for she fully realizes by
past experience that 1t is much more sat
isfactory both to herself and all con-
cerned to do her shopping early than to
put it off to the last minute, when every
thing has been picked over and every
thing is in rush.
OF course, every one understands the
embarrassments and difficulties connected
with shopping during the rush of the
Christmas season. In the excitement of
the last few weeks every one suffers to a
great extent. Storekeepers are unable
to fill their orders. clerks cannot prop
erly attend to customers and shoppers
lose both money and temper in the crush
that prevails
Shoppers should bear in mind the hard
ships they impose upon those who have
to serve them at this season, especially
the salesgirls, cashgirls and messenger
boys.
Every one should make a point of doing
their shopping early. If each would do
his or her share to make the holiday
season a little less burdensome, there
would be a tremendous saving in vital
energy and an equal increase in the sat
isfaction with which Christmas shopping
is done.

Clam Soup.

Take thirty large ones, put a basin un-
der,
And cleave with knife their stony jaws
asunder.
Add water (three quarts) to the native
liquor
Bring to a boil (and by the way the
quicker
1t boils the better, if you'd do it cutely).
Now add the clans. chopped up and
minced infinitely;
Allow a longer boil of just three
minutes,
And while it bubbles quickly stir with
in its
Tumultuous depths, where still the mol
lusks mutter,
Four tablespoons of -four and four of
butter,
A pint of milk, some pepper to your
notion;
And clans need sailing, although born
of ocean.
Remove from fire Gf much boiled they
will suffer;
You'll find that india rubber isn't
tougher)
After tits off add three fresh eggs, well
beaten:
Stir once more. and it's ready to be
eaten.
Fruit of the wave! o, dainty and de-
licious
Food for the gods; Ambrosia for
Apicius,
Worthy to thrill the soul of sea-born
Venus.

The Family Photographs.

Everybody associates the family pho
tograph album with a collection of very
funny old-fashioned likenesses of each
and every member, taken in their youth
more probably and bearing the earmarks
feminine aggregation of the family the
sash and the ''locket and chain" are
always in evidence.
A group of women were discussing this
question few days ago and one of them
remarked:
II got out our family photograph album
recently which I had not seen for many
a long year. The first thing that l OBJ
served on all the girl pictures was the
proverbial locket and chain The next
thing / observed was the ubiquitous sash.
1 thought that the pictures were certainly
in style now, for no costume is complete
without the sash. But the funny part
about it was that the same sash appeared
in the four pictures of myself and my
three sisters. Truly the family sash"
1 certainly did laugh. 1t had never oc-
Cured to me before, but here was a ST.
lent witness of the community of prop
erty a generation or so ago.
Today little girl would probably feel
hurt not to have her own ribbons and
sashes and jewelry, but instead to have
only a partnership interest in articles
which were held in trust, as it were, by
the mother, for the entire family. 1t is
a silent commentary on how our ideas
have expanded, and one striking example
of why it costs so much more to live to-
day than 1t did in days gone by

Cleopatra Wasn't a Dazzling
Beauty

The very celebrated Italian historian
Guglielmo Ferrero is paying a visit in
this country to Mr.. George Haven Put
nam. the publisher, and his utterances
on various subjects are of considerable
interest Signor FerTero will be the guest
of President Roosevelt during his visit
and he will also deliver several lectures
at the well-known colleges and univer-
stiles throughout the country.
The distinguished Italian is chiefly
known through his researches into Ro-
man history, and as a result he has
shattered many a tradition. His most
famous work is "rhe Grandeur and De-
cadence of Rome"
Much of the history of Rome as pre-
scented to us for years, is full of exag-
gerations," said the historian. .At this
date it is a hard task for the historian to
separate legends from the facts, and the
Roman history that has been handed
down to US is full of legends.
of my own methods of research, can
not say that the finding of new inscrip-
lions has formed the basis of the work.
Although fewer facts are gathered from
inscriptions and mementoes than is gen.
orally supposed, I have learned much
from the findings of the last so or 40
years"
Slgnor Ferrero has knocked to bits the
love story of Anthony and Cleopatra,
which he holds was nothing but a political
intrigue. He adds that Cleopatra was not
even a good-looking woman. He said:
1.-THE romance of Anthony and Cleo
patra is very different affair than has
been presented to us. Cleopatra was not
the woman of beauty that the historian
for hundreds of years has led US to be-
lieve. She was not good-looking woman,
but was an extremely clever one
LAS to the affair between herself and
Anthony, there was much more political
significance in their friendship than there
was of love. 1t is the duty of the his
torian of today to look up the events of
Roman history from a viewpoint not
previously taken"
Signor Ferrero said that Shakespeare
possessed this tendency of depicting the
legendary in his presentation of Roman
events and characters, drawing greatly
from the Ideas of Plutarch. Shakespeare,
however, drew fair portrait of Brutus,
whose memoirs were presented to the
world by MESSIAH Vorvinus, who was
Brutus' personal friend and with him
on the battlefield of Phillippi.
The historian said he had read with in
terest the writings of President Roose-
velt whom he considered one of the
greatest men of the age

How to Dress the Christmas
Doll.

Since half the joy of possessing a doll
lies in dressing it in it's different cos
tunes the big sister who is planning a
Christmas doll should make it tiny
trunkful of clothes. The little garments
will not take very long on the machine,
and they cost practically nothing when
made of pieces" If you have to buy
any of the materials, do not get muslin
for the undercloth es. because 1t is stiff
and not easy to sew. Get longcloth or
oh cap white lawn and one-half or one
inch Valenciennes lace One can buy
patterns for certain sized doll clothes,
and they are well worth the price, and
later these patterns will be useful to
the little girl. who can be taught how
to fold the material, pin on the pat
terms, cut, haste and sew. The pat
terms should be pressed, neatly folded
and put into a small box in the trunk.
The delight of a child is heightened by
the very fact that doll arrives In a
silk gown. This can be made of a soft
summer silk left over from sisters

STOP DRINKING!
Orrine Destroys the Craving for Drink
Cure Effected or Money Refunded.

It was formerly customary for the
habitual drinker to take the pledge reg

But now it is gradually dawning on
the world that pledges do not stop
drunkenness. When q man taxes
pledge voluntarily, he expects TO Keep
it. Every man expects to keep his WORD
and every broken pledge costs the
drunkard many a heartache. But ne
cannot help it. 3He fights as long as
he can, then succumbs to the craving;

Latest in Carriers.

The first time that garters came into
any prominence was when the lady
dropped one at the ball and the King
picked it up with the saying: "Honi soft
quit NAL pense." The saying vindi-
Gated the lady and made both the King
and the garter famous.
Perhaps it was the incident which led
to the ornamentation of the necessary
elastic. Surely it must have been, for
who would have thought of so celebrating
a tiny portion of the costume which is
so seldom in evidences
Just now garters have attained height
unthought of. They are both ornamental
and useful-what more could garter be?
Satin and lace, ribbons. gold and silver
and even precious stones are all used
to form these insignificant little things.
What could be more attractive for in
stance than the ones which are COM
binaton of satin and lace?
