Attorney General Is Stay-at-H Home

Mrs. Bonaparte has been a sufferer
from a peculiar digestive trouble for
many years, and she frequently has
been ordered to the German spas for
treatment. Mr. Bonaparte has urged
her to go, but has refused to be per-
suaded into accompanying her. AS
she is devoted wife of the old-fash-
Toned type who would not appreciate
a sojourn in Europe without her hus-
band, Mrs. Bonaparte has been COM
PEELED to get what aid she could at
American springs.
All the world knows how keenly
disappointed the indomitable Eliza
beth Patterson was when her only son
decided to marry an American, Miss
Williams of Baltimore, when she had
chosen his princely cousin Charlotte
Bonaparte for his consort. Rumor has
it that Miss Williams, afterward moth
er of the present encouragement OF
the United States, had reason to know
of her august mother-in-law's senti.
ments regarding her. Charles Bona
parte emphasizes the fact that he at
least of the American branch of the
great Corsican's family IS proud Of
being the only American, and he is so
deep-dyed in his love of his native
country that he will not leave her
soil even for brief visit

LaFollette's Wife Real Help to Him

Mr.. LaFollette's great gift was
that of oratory. He tried for all the
prizes in sight, and had the air of a
man who thought he could win. Miss
Case had some oratorical talents Of
her own, and began to cultivate them
early and late. She won in the end,
for the special prize for oratory at
graduation came to her and not to the
man who later became her husband"
1t was not long, however, before the
wouldbe winner of the prize won the
winner, and they were married short
ly after their graduation from the uni
versity in 1879.
Mrs. LaFollette is very domestic,
and the social life at Washington has
little or no attraction for her. She
spends much of her time in works of
charity and education.
When her husband was elected to
congress Mrs. LaFollette spent her
first winter in Washington taking a
course in the law school of the George
Washington university. Should it
ever happen to be the part of this Wis

band in his campaign for the presi.

Senator's Neck Broken 35 Years Ago

tered the senate. Neuralgia had taken
a firm hold of him and his eyesight
had grown so bad as to approximate
blindness. He was advised to try
osteopathy. He went to New York,
accompanied by his son. Almost the
doctors first remark was:
why, senator, you have had your
neck broken. I would say you were
thrown from a horse and sustained
the broken neck"
"That is just exactly what did hap
pen," replied Senator Money, recall
ing the injury at Franklin.
II can cure your neck" said the
physician; ut will require but a mo-
ments time"
The osteopath laid the senator on
a table, took hold of the misplaced
vertebra with both hands and put
it into proper position.
The physician told Senator Money
that he must take precautions until
the weakened muscles regained their
normal strength. He was cautioned
not to turn his head in looking at
anything, but to move his entire body.
These instructions were observed and
the neck apparently became as strong
as it was 35 years before the opera.

delegates are uninstructed. or these

During the past week 1873 dele

the Taft column by the adoption OF
strong Taft resolutions by their re-

states were: California, Idaho, Michi

their respective tate conventions, or

1t is in Paris that the wiHsker

The luXuriant verdure on the faces

along the boulevard every day can be

he can, but some whiskers, at any
rate. He supplants natures efforts
with the best aids of the barber and

boards and educate them into formal
gardens, set pieces, shrubbery, terrace
and vista effects. They lay out hair.
scapes with them, arrange them in I'M
dulating meadows and Irvine them on
pergolas. There is the long, spade
concoction much sought by men with
black boards, which consists of about
a foot of hair cut square across the
bottom, and adds much glory to the
wearer, for the whiskers always shine
and glisten in the sun. There are side
whiskers and pointed ones, the heart
shaped and the curved, the waved and
the plain. A man who can train his
whiskers to- grow in new way is as
much of celebrity as a man who
writes a good poem or paints good

A MERRY echo of the shot which

was Rear Admiral Coghlan. who won

ToRNApoEs IN IOWA.

Tornadoes have been quite frequent

have been visited by more or less
destructive tornado, destroying
large amount of property. in many
cases the buildings being totally de.

All can protect their lives by having
a safe retreat in case of storm, but
none can protect their property. The
only safe way is to have Insurance In
some reliable Association.
The IOWA MUTUAL TORNADO
INSURANCE ASSOCIATION of Des
Moines, is the largest, cheapest and
best association of its kind on earth.
The business for last year was the
largest of any year, but this year bids
fair to be another record breaker.
The first six months of this year,
every months business has been an
increase over the business for the
same month last year, and the asso-
citation has at the present time over
$125, 100000 in risks all in Iowa and
$4,000 cash on hand, and has not
made an assessment for over two
years. The association paid over
$4,000 in losses in Lyon and Sioux
Counties In the storm of April 23rd
and over $4,000 In the storm Of May
18th In Page, Fremont. Jones, Du-
buque and Louisa counties, besides
many losses in other parts of the
state. 1t is very sad for anyone to
have their buildings destroyed with,
out having any insurance. There is
no need of this, now that we have
such grand Association that gives
insurance at cost. The agent Of every
Farmers Mutual or Town Dwelling
Association can tell you all about 1t.

ton and good pocket map of Iowa.

Statement.

Washington, d. c., May 1S.-Denial
has been made by the international
Paper company and other manufac.
turers of paper of the charges made
by the American Newspaper Pub.
fishers association that an agree
ment exists between them either to
raise the price of paper or to restrict

on Saturday before the special COM
mittee of the house Of representatives

and print paper question.
The claim also was made that
Canadian mills, which are selling
paper at 65 cents hundred pounds
less than American mills, were doing
so at a loss, and that il normal con-
ditions resumed in England and
Canada those prices would he raised.
1t also was contention OF the wit

T is quite the ordinary thing to say
i that the wife of politician is his
adviser. The politician likes to have
it said, for there is a sort of sentiment
which attaches to it which appeals to
the people. The statement is not al
ways true, but in the case of Senator
and Mrs. LaFollette of Wisconsin it is,
for Mrs. LaFollette is keen judge of
conditions.
Clear in mind and sound in judg-
ment, it was Mrs. LaFollette who pur-
suaded her husband to choose law
and politics and to give over all idea
of stage career.
The wife the senior senator from

Rigid Rules Against Bringing Food
Into Big Apartment Hotels.

II you live by the year in one OF
these fashionable apartment hotels
that run a restaurant in connection
with the rooms, you cannot take food
into your quarters on peril of your
life, says the New York Telegraph
There Is big uptown hotel, of the
best class, whose leases provide that
room leasers must eat in the restau-
rant Many Of them disregard this
clause in their leases, and some OF
them openly took food into their apart
ments. This has been stopped by the
manager, who has ordered that all
baskets of provisions brought to the
hostelry shall be turned back.
A lawyer told me that the hotel man
was counting trouble-that a tenant in
a hotel had a right to take anything
In his room he pleased, so that he com
piled with the provision in his lease
that he shall do no cooking In his
apartment. Just the other day a man
was caught bringing a bottle OF milk
into the front door and was requested
to leave the place.
That reminds me of another uptown
hotel which was filled with families
and which had rigid rule that no one
should cook In an apartment. II be-
came known, however, that the patrons
OF the place were cooking right along,
and there was much sleuthing on the
part OF the management and employees,
to find out who the guilty ones
were The guiltlest man of the lot
looked the most innocent, and in
order to cover up his nefarious
work he lodged a complaint with
the manager, In vigorous language,
that some one was cooking around
the house, and that he was much
disturbed by the smell of food.
This was In the afternoon, and that
very night there was an odor of cook
ing all through the fifth floor The
manager got porter and clerk, and
pass key. They traced the odor
right down to one door and softly I'M
locked 1t and rushed in. There stood
the man who had complained with
long fork in his hand and gloating
look in his eyes as he watched four
large pork sausages sizzle and fry In
pan over an oil-stove fire.

III ASHINGTON. - Acknowledgement
w Charles ]. Bonaparte is an Ameri-
can who never has passed out of the
dominion of Uncle Sam and who has
registered a VOW never to do so.
When Mr.. Bonaparte accepted po-
sition in President Roosevelt's cabi-
net he made known this limitation on
his usefulness and took the place only
on condition that his official duties
should never oblige him to leave the
United States. Just why the attorney
general has determined never to visit
an alien land no one can say positive.
iy, though 1t is easily surmised that he
makes this protest against the way in
which his maternal grandmother was
treated by the great Corsican. During
the lifetime Of the elder brother, Col
Jerome Bonaparte, Charles Bonaparte
frequently was invited to Paris by the
head of the family, then in his prime,
Napoleon Ill, but he always disdained
to notice the invitation to join
family circle which frowned on Ameri
, can affiliations.
