You should always remember that
most cough and cold cures are con-
stipating. Yet the most important
thing to do when you have cold is
10 move the bowels. You cannot
promptly cure q cold until you dc
this. Kennedy's Laxative Cough
Syrup stops the cough by allaying in
hammation of the throat and lungs
and it drives the cold from the system
by gently moving the bowels. Children
like it for it tastes nearly as good as
maple sugar. Sold by Anti Monopoly

Editor Star: / notice your editorial

In your issue Of December 10th. 1908,

ed by law 10 take oath or affirmation.

existing occupational law in many of
the occupations taxed the applicant is
required to make oath to the amount
of stock carried by him in the bust
ness for which he makes application
for a license and the amount Of the
license tax to be paid is governed by
this affidavit. These affidavits are
finally filed in the office of the state
comptroller. They are a matter Of
public record and as the approximate
amount of stock" carried by persons
engaged in business is a matter of
common and general knowledge it
would seem that further legislation is
not needed, but in an enforcement of
the existing law by our grand juries
lies the remedy. Yours truly.

!. A Psychic Phenomenon.

An extraordinary incident is connect
ed with Professor Won Herkomer's ia
nous painting, "The Last Muster"
which was the picture Of its year at
the academy.
One morning soon after the exhibit
ton was opened the artist was aston
ished to receive a letter from lady, a
perfect stranger, who said she was
not aware until she saw 1.-THE Last
Muster" at the academy on the previ-
GUS day that her mother, then dead.
had ever sat to the professor for her
portrait
Now, the figure in the picture was
painted solely from imagination, and
the artist FASTENED to explain this fact
to his correspondent. She thereupon
asked for an appointment and took an
oil painting Of her mother, asserting
that it was faithful representation Of
that lady. .S.2s.%s al " Al
The academician was astonished Ia
perceive that he had really portrayed
on his own canvas facsimile Of the
figure in this other painting, although
it was that of woman whom he had
never seen in his life.-London NJ. A. p

shipwrecks and Courts Martial.

Shipwrecks and Courts Martial.
The custom Of holding courts martial
in the British navy after every case Of
shipwreck has a curious origin. In
1741 the Wager, one Of Commodore
Anson's vessels, was wrecked off the
coast Of Chile, most Of the crew being
saved. The men and some of the jun
Tor officers held that they were no
longer amenable to discipline because
their pay ceased with the wreck, but
the captain, whose name was Dayy
Cheap, differed, treated them as mutt.
neers and shot one Of his midshipmen.
He was then deposed, and most Of the
crew made OFF in three Of the boats.
Later when 1t was proposed to proceed
against the so called mutineers the law
officers of the crown decided that the
men had been correct in their view.
This discovery led to the framing Of
section 81 Of the articles Of war, which
provides that in the case Of shipwreck,
destruction or capture by the enemy a
ship Is held to remain in commission
pending inquiry by a court martial. "

MULES OF MEXICO.
They Are Even More Knowing Than
q Our Own Meek Brand.

They: Are Even More knowing Than
y .... Our Own Meek Brand.
Everybody knows that all mules
are brainy, but the mules Of old Mex
leo have something on other mules for
a sort Of precedence Of their own" said
a man who has spent many years in
the neighboring republic. "a Mexican
mule will do just SO much work and
not q blamed bit more.
'oThe riding mule, for instance, is
fully aware Of the distance, down to a
rod, he is supposed and required to
traverse in the progress Of one travel
ing day, and all the sharp sticks or
goads or dynamite on earth won't gel
him to do bit more than what he
knows to be the correct distance. The
Mexicans have got peculiar saying in
connection with this characteristic OF
the Mexican mule. You ask Mex.
lean, for instance, how far it is by
mule back to such and such point.
two days journey IL you are moi
rushed, but three days Il you are in 8
hurry the Mexican will reply. :,
Ellis meaning Is that If you DOM
ask, more of your mule than you should
ask Of him, the mule viii be able tt
make the trip In two days. But If yor
attempt to drive the brute he'll soldier
on you, and in consequence the jour
ney will take you three days."s-Ex

The Deceased Wife,s Sister.

The law against marrying deceased
:wifes sister, which caused SO much
discussion in England, grew out Of
the ancient tribal law forbidding IA
ther4to sell more than one daughter to
the same man when the Briton was
emerging from polygamy and when
for 81 shillings Of the present money
a man might dismiss his wife or kill
her IL she would not 60. AS civil law
it was to protect the living wife and
knit tribes closer together by inter-
marriage When ecclesiastical law be-
came supreme a misleading Of some
Scripture text was used to put the
sister of a mans wife among the pro-
hibited degrees Of relationship. This
was the act of 1541 (32 Henry VIID:
"a man may not marry his deceased
wife's sister or her daughter, but he
may marry his first cousin. "-London

Weathercock.
Fishes have been put to many queer
uses while still alive, but probably the
strangest was that suggested 10 the.
war department by an inventor. The
propulsion of submarine torpedpes Was
the subject under discussion, and he
proposed that q shark be Imprisoned
in tube at the rear end Of the projec-
tile, its movements to be controlled by
the active application Of electricity.
In case the shark attempted to swim
away 1t was to be given an electric
shock and In this way kept on It's
course until the torpedo had reached
its target. .ss
Another remarkable use to which q
fish has been put is as a barometer.

pheric changes, and when retained in
an aquarium Is likely to throw itself

Mr.. Absalom Boote, an eccentric old
gentleman who had grown tired OF life
Ia the city, decided to move to some
smaller town, free from the roar Of
traffic, theebnstie and confusion OF the
thronging multitude. where he could
end his days TRANQUILITY, as became q
man OF his age. In casting about for
q location, his eye CHANGED to light
upon the advertisement In village
paper Of one Thomas R. Foote, who
wanted to dispose of his boot and
shoe store at a bargain, having made
up his mind to remove to the city.
.sS That's the very thing" he said.
Selling shoes is a nice easy occupa.
tion. It will give me just enough to
DO to keep me from stagnating. and II
won't wear me out with overwork.
I'll investigate It. It's queer, though,
that his name Is Foote. my name is
Foote, he wants to- come to the city
and want to go to the country"
A visit to the little town decided
him. He liked its appearance and 10.
cation. He was pleased, moreover
with Foote's Shoe Store and bought
it good will and all, at a bargain.
"Well,'' said the other Mr.. Foote
you won't have to change the sign"
"No," he answered slowly. It'll JUS
add little to it"
The next day. he added this, JUS
