A French Writer'S Theory Of How It
May 3s Exudad By Man.


May De Exudad BY Man.
Dr. Georges Dumas is the author Of
an article in the Revue de Paris on
'srhe Odor of Sanetity." The writer
accepts as true the numerous reported
instances OF saints and nystics Of the
Catholic church whose bodies after
death or during moments Of ecstasy
emitted peculiarly pleasing odors Of
various kinds Then men and women
with whom such legends deal. argues
Dr. Dumas, were neurnsthenes, and IL
is not impossible that the aroma OF
sanctity which surrounded them was
the product OF strictly physiological
and chemical changes common TO all
men. but present In highly intensified
form in subjects who, so to speak,
burned up the candle OF their existence
at an unusually rapid rate. He says in
part:

Glove. orange, plncnpple. rose, violet,

tion of all Of these is well known, and
chemistry produces them daily for COM

substitute the equivalent chemical cx-
pressions for the ordinary terms we
have employed and say that orange,
cinnamon. violet and musk owe their
perfume to aldehydes ard acetones.

Contract Does Not Always Protect
the Worker, Say Economists.
At a joint session of the American
Economic association and the Ameri
can Association For Labor Legislation
held recently at Madison, Wis, the
president of the latter organization, d.
Richard T. Ely of the University Of
Wisconsin, spoke on Economic The
ory and Labor Legislation" saying in
part:
"An examination of modern theories
Of population and wages reveals the
existence Of no doctrine which in itself
Is antagonistic to labor legislation IN
itself. and as a matter of fact it would
be difficult to find such antagonism
among the leading economists of the
world today.
THE economic grounds for labor leg
islation are revealed best when the sub
ject Is approached from the viewpoint
of contract or the economic bargain
consideration. particularly in Its legal
aspect with respect to underlying eco
hOnlIE causes.
Contracts are static. not dynamic.
Through contract the actually existing
economic forces manifest themselves
with all their inequalities and injus
tees.
Until recently economists were in
clined TO limit regulation Of labor con
ditions and especially hours Of toll TO
children, young persons and women.
leaving adult men free to make their
own contracts, but experience has
shown that. while the adult males as a
rule are in far better position in the
labor contract than the ether classes
mentioned. unregulated contract does
not always conduce to freedom and
fair opportunity. but frequently means
bondage and degradation. We must
not take the view OF the state as exter-
nal stepping in and interfering with
the liberty. It's action Is rather the re-
suit Of the cooperative efforts OF men
to determine the conditions OF toll and
enlarge the sphere Of economic action.
Science can draw no arbitrary lire /
between labor legislation for adults and /
labor legislation for women and chill
dren Cases must he Judged IS thes
arise on their metits. Efficiency must
be an ever present lest"

The general idea that our enormous

The most curious form, or, rather

I have ever come across was that Gus
tomary at CIiffords inn, one Of the
vanished inns Of chancery The soci-
ETY. consisted or two distinct bodies,
the principal and rules and the Kent
ish mess, each body having It's own ta-
bic. At the conclusion Of the dinner
the chairman OF the Kentish mess, first
bowling to the principal Of the Inn,
took from the hands Of the servitor
some small rolls or loayes Of bread
and, without saying d word, dashed
them several times on the table. after
which they were taken away. Solemn
silence relieved only by the thumps
prevailed during this curious substI-
tute fer verbal grace.-Cor. London

1.-THE DISTRICT LEADER"

The show that is going to set the
town talking, singing and whistling is
The District Leader which ONE to
the Grand opera house January 13.
THE District Leader had it's first ap-
pearance at Wallack's Theatre in New
York, and is a pleasing evenings en-
tertainment of the light variety, and
will greatly Outclass many of the pro-
auctions that have been more copious-
ly heralded and more highly acclaim
ed.
The story of THE District Leader
is an intermiXture of melodrama, COM
edy and comic opera, with a vivacious
bunch of show girls, which combina-
ton produces a happy effect. The
melodramatic strain without the chorus
girls and the ear tinkling musical num-
bers might prove depressing, but the
occasional introduction of these les
sens the seriousness of the plot, when
the opportunity for a heroic situation
presents itself and the tragic ensemble
gives away to the joyous show girls
and catchy music.
Dan Lawton and Tim Holloran are
rivals for political honors. The young
er man is in love with his opponents
daughter. The father of the girl re-
sorts to dishonest tactics in endeav-
oring to secure his election, the plan
being to inveigle his daughters lover
to an opium joint and then cause a
raid upon the place, having the story
printed in the newspapers on the
morning of election day, and thereby
cause his opponents downfall, all of
which gives ample opportunity for
melodramatic effects, many changes of
scene and changes of costumes. THE
District Leader" may well be called
a novelty" for it introduces many
things which are really new. Among
the song hits of the piece are when
You Go Out to Dine, Way Down in
Jersey" so" "A Heart to Let" Sing
Sing Sammy Sem" What's the Use
of Dreaming" Wont You BE My Lit.
tie Grille" and THE Same Old Story"
When it is said that THE District
Leader" is the brightest and most
pleasing entertainment yet given to
the stage by Mr.. Howard, it should
count for much, as there are very
few writer's of late years who have
turned out more genuine musical hits,

WHAT'S IN McClURE'S.

An important feature of McClure's
Magazine for January is the first in
stallment of Marriage a Ia Mode
a new novel by Mrs. Humphrey Ward,
dealing with American life. Then there
is a story of the South Seas, THE
House of Mapuhi," by Jack London,
and five other good, strong short stor-
les. The articles are fully up to
the Mcclure standard. An educated
man who went into the saloon bust
less tells of his experiences; General
Kuropatkin declares that the Treaty
of Portsmouth was a premature and
dangerous peace and cites facts to
prove it; DR.. Brandreth Symonds gives
some interesting figures on the mortal
ity of overweights and underweights;

The Appeal of the Stage" and VIII

CUT THIS OUT
AND SAVE IT
Says Many Persons Here Can
Be Made Happy Again
THE PRESCRIPTION GIVEN
Tells How Any One Can Pre-
pare m Made Mixture

There is so much Rheumatism here
in our neighborhood now that the fol
lowing advice will be highly appre-
ciated by those who suffer.
Get from any good pharmacy one
half ounce Fluid Extract DandeliOn,
one ounce Compound Kargon, three
ounces of Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla. Shake these well in a bottle
and take in t%easpoonful doses after
each meal and at bedtime; also drink
plenty of good water.
1t is claimed that there are few vic
tins of this dread and to%rturous dis
ease who will fail to find ready relief
in this simple homemade mixture.
and in most cases a permanent cure
is the result.
This simple recipe is said to
strengthen and cleanse the elinlina-
tive tissues of the Kidneys so that
they can filter and strain from the
blood and system the poisons, acids
and waste matter, which cause not
only Rheumatism, but numerous 9TH
err diseases. Every man or woman
here who feels that their kidneys are
not healthy and active, or who suf-
fers from any urinary trouble what
ever, should not hesitate to make up
this mixture, as it is certain to do
much good, and may ave you from
much misery and suffering after
while.
Our home druggists say they will
either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take if our
readers ask them.
