a sum for depreciation. although the
supervisors had contended that 1t was
not entitled to such an allowance The

1T would be unfortunate to give the
rate payers the impression that they
may demand water at the rates named
in the ordinance because, as has been
said, those rates are enjoined, and the
consumers, as we'll as the city, are re-
strained from making any attempt to
compel the company to supply water at
those figures
ENGINEER MANSON RETURNS
City Engineer Manson returned yes
terday from an eight day trip to the
Hetch Hetchy valley, where he checked
up and ound, correct the surveys which
have been completed by Engineer
DrenZy Jones and assistants of the
nection with the federal court. Manson
expressed himself as we'll pleased with
the decision handed down by Judge
harrington in the Spring Valley litiga-
tion. He said that the valuation of
s27, $4,000 was not greatly in excess of
the various appraisements which have
been made by the city engineers office,
both during his own term of Office and
during City Engineer Grunsky's.
This valuation effectually does away
with the preposterous claims of Spring
Valley said Manson. land will form a
reasonable basis for the requirement of
the plant If that is found practicable
and desirable. The terms under which
the 15 per cent increase in the rate
charge is to be made also protect the
private consumer in the final adjudica-
ton of the. matter. I regard the deci-
sion is another big step forward in the
city's progress toward the ultimate con-
troll by herself of an adequate and per-
manent water supply"
STOCK ADVANCES
Spring Valley stock advanced slight
ly yesterday. 1t was boosted by a
coterie of brokers, who spread the re-
port that the decision had been misin-
terpreted and was in reality victory
for the corporation.

CHICAGO, Oct. Sit was ascertained
today from an absolutely trustworthy
source that the September earnings of
the Union Pacific will be an eye opener
to those who question the decrease of
only $4,000 in gross for August And
the Union Pacific people attribute the
Improvement in earnings to President
Roosevelt's policies. 1t was stated to-
day in all seriousness that during the
last year of agitation at Washington
the shippers as we'll as the railroads
have grown afraid of rebates and Sc
cret agents. AS a result the business
or the. country is moving along the
lines of least resistance. No one doubts
the abilityrof the Union Pacific to make

is not proof that it is a success, nor Is the eAcef
lence of an institution proved by the few cases
but by the many. The few but prove the posi-
bility of success where there is more often but
slight measure of it,
No one who has considered the matter thought
fully can doubt that marriage at its best is the
Derfect life, ideal in its relations and in its deVel'
,opment of the best type of man and woman, but'
unfortunately, that a thing may be is not the same
as that it is.
To an outsider, one of the strongest arguments
against matrimony is the number OF those VINO Try
to get out of, it. Being tied is in itself a condl'
ton trying to an erratic temperament, for you are
never so eager to get away as when you know
you can't.
have watched devoted lovers grow into in
different partners, and also have seen most beau
tiluI marriages grow from rather commonplace
wooings, so the advance stage seems not much
of an indication what the future will give.
One of my girl friends said to me of her t1ance:
81 am not one of the silly girls who cannot see
faults in those they care for. | can see them all
the palmer because l love, and though l have hunt-
ed very hard for them, l can't see a fault In Joe,
and so | know he hasn't got any" Size and Joe
got married and went their loving way. Some
years later | met her, and in the course OF con-
versation she surprised me by saying; NO, OF
course. | don't tell Joe everything, the way 1 used
to. Men are so stupid they never understand,
SO il is foolish to tell them and get into g fuss
"Do they grow stupid after MARRIAGE"
"Well, they may not, but they seem to: why,
Toe nearly went wild over the most innocent
letter that a man sent me, and he happened to
find. I've told the maid again and again never to
bring my letters to the table, but to put them In
my bureau drawer, but she is so careless. One
often has letters she doesn't wish her husband to
see. bills and things of that sort"
Now, it is hard for me to imagine marriage a
success in which one party to the contract has
such a feeling as that. Marriage, it seems to
me, Is one Of two things, either a business con-
tract, or a union founded upon sentiment, and II
deceit enters into it one party or the other is not
living up to the agreement, however smoothly
things may seem to go. If it is a business con-
Germ, each partner has a right to the confidence of
the other, and so long as sentiment enters into
It there will be the same Interchange of interests
between married couples as between the engaged.
The rule holds as good whether applied to man
or to woman.
Another Of my friends loves her husband de-
yotedly, she says. She has no secrets from him
nor from anybody else-not even those she ought
TO have. for perfect faith does not necessitate
telling a man every foolish little thing, nor pass
ing on to him something some girl friend has told
her. When of an evening her husband puts or
his coat to go out this wife begins: why, Harry
are you going out this evening? Where are yot

going? What makes you go? You can think OF
me waiting here alone until you get back. | shall
sit up until you get home
Think of a self-respecting, able-bodied and mind
ed man being subjected to that every time he goes
out of the house. Could you bear 1t, oh, sister
woman, if he put you through like questioning?
Why should a man or a. woman be required to
give an account of all the moments as they ny!
Speaking of human beings from my own stand
point, l should say there is nothing dearer than
freedom of the individual, and nothing much hard
err to bear than any infringement upon it. | con-
slider being questioned almost the objectionable
offense on the part of a friend, yet, left to myself,
probably I should tell him or her all | knew; but
Quizzing me always results in my telling nothing
and there must be others like that.
Something of this kind said to Ella, and that
to ask a man so much seemed to me like an in
dignity. She replied: How funny you are! Why
should he object to telling me If he isn't going
where he is ashamed to have it known? Am l
not his wife and entitled to know all he does?"
"He probably might tell you without your ask
ing if you gave him a chance, but anybody with
an atom of sense would object to being forced to
tell every time he turned around and why"
IF he loves me he ought to be willing to tell
me so little a thing as that"
What are you going to do with a woman like
that to live with every day-love her? Yes, but
you will come to the conclusion that dumbness
is not without some compensations.
Once l was visiting a friend who had been the
most romantic and sentimental of girls. When
she was first married she wept bitterly because
her husband said another woman was the hand.
soonest one he had ever seen.
mo other woman ought to be 30 handsome to
a man as his wife, however she looks" sobbed
she, as if a man lost his eyesight when he mar
ried. Wouldn't you suppose a woman would lose
confidence in her husbands Judgment If he
thought she was the most beautiful of women
when her mirror told her she was not?
While l was at this friends home her husband
told at dinner of something funny that had hap
pened that day in the office, addressing his re-
marks directly to her. She made no pretense Of
listening, and evidently did not hear a word.
"You don't seem to see anything funny in that"
ooh, | never listened to it at all. l thought
likely it was as stupid as the stories you usually
tell"-ruderess in her manner as in her words.

cooked With Gasoline.

The use of candles and gasoline and
still more primitive methods for light
ing and cooking became necessary IN
St. Joseph when the local gas com
pany confessed its inability to take
care of the demand after the rupture
of the big natural gas main near Law
renee, Kan, which supplies st. JOS
eph with light and fuel. The old gas
plant was started up to supply the
artificial, but the fact that the ma
chinery had for so long been in dis
use made the efforts unsuccessful.

The encouragement Of matrimony Is
one of the objects of the Fraternal
Purity association being organized By
S. A. Haseltine and others in Spring
field. Its members will be paid bene-
fits when they marry. Marriage is not
regarded by the promoters of the So
ciety as a calamity like sickness or
death. but as a thing to be desired
and encouraged. Application for a
pro forma degree of incorporation for
the association was made in the cir
cult court, with prominent men In the
list of officers. Any acceptable white
person over the age of IA years may
become a member.

Innovation In Politics.

The recent municipal elections in
Paris were remarkable not only for
the candidature of M. Laloe, who was
soundly beaten, but for the first re-
corded c%andidature of a domestic serv-
ant. The liveried class is supposed to
take on the political color of its sur
roundings and to be ultra-conservative
as a rule, but this candidate stood as
a republican socialist, and he is said
to have been strongly supported by
his kind.

els, valued at 1882, 000, 900. The quantity Of wheat
grown in the United Kingdom in 1906 was 54,
$4,000 bushels, Of which probably IS to 80 per
cent. was directly used for food by the people,

YOU'RE Q THIN.
Evsn Slight Catarrhal DrrangsmeTS
1Ms Stomach Produce Acid Fer
meHIation of tie Food
Stomach Catar7h

Some people are thin and always re-
main thin, from temperamental rea-
sons. Probably in such cases nothing
can be done to change this personal
popularity.
But there are a large number of peo-
pie who get thin, or remain thin, who
naturally would be plump and 1eshy
but for some digestive arrangement.
Thin people lack in adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue is chiefly composed Of
fat.
Fat is derived from the oily constit-
uents of food.
The fat-making foods are called by
the Psychologist, hydrocarbons. This
class Of foods are not digested in the
stomach at all. They are digested in
the duodenum, the division of the ALI
mentary canal Just below the stomach.
The digestion of fat is mainly, If not
wholly, the work of the ~pancreatic
juice. This juice is of alkaline reac-
ton, and is rendered inert by the addi-
ton of acid. A hyperacidity of the
digestive fluids Of the stomach passing
down into the d~uodenum, destroys
the pancreatic fluid for digestive pur-
poses. Therefore, the fats are not di-
gestcd or emulsiied, and the system Is
deprived of it's due proportion of oily
constituents. Hence, the patient grows
thin.
The beginning Of the trouble is a ca
tarrhal condition of the stomach which
causes hyperacfdity of the gastric
juices. This hyperacidity is caused by
fermentation of food in the stomach.
When the food is taken into the stom-
ach, if the process of digestion does
not begin Immediately, acid fermenta-
ton will take place. This creates q
hyperacidity of the stomach juices
which in their turn prevent the pam
create digestion of the oils, and the
evacuation results.
A dose Of Peruna before each meal
hastens the stomach digestion. By
hurrying digestion, Peruna prevents
fermentation of the contents Of the
stomach, and the pancreatic ~juiceis thus
preserved in its normal state. 1t then
only remains for the patient to eat a
sufficient amount of fat-forming foods,
and the thinneAs disappears and plump
ness takes its place.
