Many practical inventions of mod.
ern days were foreshadowed in book

achievement. Among them were
secret writing by cipher or peculiar
inks, telegraphs or semaphores, eX-

Police Veracity.

In his admirable statement be-
fore the City Club of Chicago on
the 18th, of his work at purifying
the ballot, Frank j. Loush can
didly declared that policemen
cannot be relied upon to expose
political frauds. He was careful
to say that this is not because po-
licemen are wicked beyond other
men, but because they are expect
ed by superiors to ''go the dis
tance" in the direction of which
their superiors want them to go. If
they shrink, obstacles are thrown
in the way of promotion, and to.
boggan slides are conveniently
provided for dismissal. 1t is
true, not alone in. Chicago, but in
every other city. Policemen who
would not testify falsely in private
affairs do so glibly in police af-
fairs. They are like the news
paper man who writes what he is
ordered to. They obey orders and
whom there are no orders they
obey the orders they know would
come if the superior dared issue
them. This is the life the police.
man is trained to Chicago

James A. Tubbs.

Death Friday morning robbed
Butler county OF probably it's best
known and most popular citizen,
James A. Tubbs, "Uncle Jimmie"
The Harvester not only did this
but prevented the joyous celebra-
ton of the sixtieth anniversary
next February of the happy mar
ried life the dead man and his be-
reaved wife had enjoyed.
Mr.. Tubbs likely was the oldest
consistent Democrat in the state of
Missouri. A short while ago he
told the Citizen Democrat that he
had cast his first vote in 1913, when
his ballot was counted for Lewis
Cass for president. He had voted
the Democratic ticket all the in
tervening years.
When "Uncle Jimmie" came to
Poplar Bluff last November 3 to
give his aid through his vote to
William Jennings Bryan, he made
his last trip to the city. AS his
buggy drew up in front of the polls,
a dozen young men rushed eagerly
to greet him and assist him to the
ground. He was beloved by all.
Mr.. Tubbs suffered an attack OF
rheumatism some time ago. His
age told against him, he having
passed the eightieth milestone of
life. He succumbed at 5 O'Clock
this morning at his home in the
country, his faithful wife being at
his side, grieving for the mate who
had been wrested from her after
sixty years Of affectionate part
nership. Burial probably will be
to- morrow in Crane Creek cemete-
ry.
This patriarch Of Butler county
came to Poplar Bluff in 1859. He
was born May %, 1928, in Dixon
! county, Tenn. His home up to the

seat inserted at the rear, and the char

motor cars are unknown-is practical

side brass-bound tin pail, in which
is queer little measuring dipper.

In glass bottles, with a paper-sealed
top, when he can have it measured at
his door into his own jug in this
quantity curious fashion? What do
microbes amount to when compared
with the joy Of the medieval!

WORK HARD AND KEEP ON TOP
Observance Of Simple Rule Means
Success in Life.

Thirty years ago, in poor school
house in a back district, boy at the
foot of his class unexpectedly spelled
word that had passed down the en-
tire class.

"and see that you stay there. You can
If you work hard
The boy hung his head. But the
next day he did not miss word in
spelling. The brighter scholars knew
every word in the lesson; hoping
there might be chance to get ahead,
But there was not a single one. Dave
stayed at the head. He had been an
Indifferent speller, before, but now he
knew every word.
Dave, how do you get your lesson
so we'll now?" said the master.
81 learn every word in the lesson,
and get my mother to hear me at
night, then | go over them in the
morning before come to school. And
l go over them at my seat before the
class is called up"
Good boy, Dave!" said the master
"That's the way to success; always
work that way and you'll do"
Dave to-day is the manager of a big
lumber company, and he attributes his
start to the words:
60 up ahead, and see that you stay
there. You can if you work hard"
Success may come sometimes uneX
pectedly, but work alone can hold it

Love the Bow on Lies cloud.

Love is the only bow on lifes dark
cloud 1t is the morning and evening
star. 1t shines on the babe, and sheds
its radiance on the quiet tomb. 1t is
the mother of art, inspirer of poet,
patriot and philosopher. 1t is the air
and light of every heart, builder Of
every home, kinder of every fire on
the hearth it was the first dress of i'm

Love is the magician, the enchanter
that changes worthless things to joy,
and makes right royal queens and
kings Of common clay. 1t is the per-
fume of that wonderful flower, the
heart, and without that sacred passion,
that divine swoon, we are less than
beasts, but with it--earth is heaven
and we are gods.-The late Col. Rob

Love and Envy.

The highest love is ever quickest
to detect the failures and inconsis-
tencies Of the beloved. Just because
if its intensity it can be content with
nothing less than the best, because
the best means the blessedest, and
it longs that the object of its thoughts
should be most blessed forever. 1t is
mistake to think that green-eyed
jealousy is the quickest to detect the
spots on the sun, the freckles on the
face, and the marring discords in the
music of life; love is quicker, more
microscopic, more exacting that the
ideal should be achieved, Envy is con
tent to indicate the fault, and leave it
but love detects and waits and holds
its peace until the fitting opportunity
arrives and then sets itself to remove
the defect-The Angelus.

Hadley and the Brewers.
lFrom Inc Lex1ngton News J

from tne Lexington News
If there was anything needed to
unmask Attorney General Hadley
and show him to the world as he
really is, it occurred at the repub-
lican banquet down at st. Louis.
In the campaign Hadley invaded
the dry sections of the state and
charged that the brewers were
backing Cowherd and contribut-
ing money to secure his election.
Not few soft heads throughout
Missouri swallowed the jayhawker
bait and scratched VIM. S. Cow
herd.
When the returns came in the
vote on governor in st. Louis and
st. Louis county indicated that
Hadley's trap "caught 'em gwyan
and comm"
Water and oil will not mix, but
wet and dry votes will elect when
they are cast for the same candi-
date. They did elect in the case of
Herbert s. Hadley and the returns
were sufficient. to convince any
"dry" man with as much brains
as sheep that he had been bum
coed good and plenty.
There's an old saw which, amen
ded, reads;
"Convince a fool against his will,
He's of the same opinion still"
The pretended democrats who
scratched Cowherd and voted for
Hadley nearly all come within the
meaning of this old aphorism and
they remained steadfast in the be-
lief that they had saved the coun-
try from the blighting influence of
the breweries by electing Hadley.
More evidence was needed to
open their eyes and the st. Louis
gathering to ratify Hadley's elect
ton certainly supplied sufficient
argument for the softest head that
ever marked democratic ballot.
The arrangement committee that
had in charge the banquet, an
nounced that only coffee and wa
ter would be served, but the brew
ers decreed otherwise and their
wishes prevailed.
Only two carloads of beer were
consumed by the banqueters, and
Otto Stifel, a pudgy fingered
manufacturer of the suds, came
second only to immaculate Had
ley in the attention received.
Chairman Howe broke one beel
bottle trying to quiet the turbulent
beer maudling banqueters. Final
ly, he grasped the empty bottle Of
governor r-elect Hadley and began
rap vigorously with that. Oh! the
magic that was impaired to thai
"empty soldier" by the lips of the
transplanted Jayhawker.
A mufled thud or two from
Hadley's bottle reverberated thro
the banquet hall like the ON
inous thunder OF an approaching
storm.
!. It's decorating and commanding
roar rolled through the galleries
and aroused the colored contin-
gent who were permitted to roost
high and sniff the tantalizlng
odors Of the rich spread and the
secondhand malt of their white
co-laborers for good government
and prosperity.

scenes which were enacted at the
celebration of the election OF Q

Power fram plffleuItIea overcome.

The teacher of the old school who
showed his pupil the way out of every
difficulty did not perceive that he was
generating an attitude of mind greatly
initiating against success in life. The
modern instructor, however, induces
his pupil to solve his difficulties him
self; believes that in so doing he is
preparing him to meet the difficulties
which, when he goes into the world,
there will be no one to help him
through; and finds confirmation for
this belief in the fact that great
proportion Of the most successful men
are self-made,--Herbert Spencer

FIND COMFORT IN THE NIGHT.
Small Sorrows Quickly Vanish In Its
Friendly Shade.

And yet 1t seems so full of comfort
and strength, the night. In its great
presence, our small sorrows creep
away ashamed. The day has been
full of fret and care, and our hearts
have been SO full of bitter thoughts,
and the world has seemed so hard and
wrong to us. Then, night, like some
great loving mother gently lays her
hand upon our fevered heads and
turns our little tear-stained faces up
to hers, and smiles; and though she
does not speak, we know what she
would say, and lay our hot, flushed
cheek against her bosom, and the
pain is gone.
Nights heart is full Of pity for us;
she takes our hand in hers, and the
little world grows very small and very
far away beneath us, and borne on
her dark wings we pass for moment
into a mightier presence than her own,
and in the wondrous light of that
great presence all human life lies
like bark before us, and we know
that pain and sorrow are but the
angels of God-Jerome K. Jerome.

was concerned in the schedules on
ammonia, potash and soda Here is

dustrics which he represented had
pruspcr"d greatly under the present

Then why do you ask for an In.
crease in the dulios?' asked Mr.. Tn.

reply.
