city, was arrested within fifteen min.
utes after he had been united in mar
riagc to Miss Lillian NJ. Ellis, Il prom.
inent young member Of Ely society, and
was taken to the county court house
where, after n trial lasting almost an
honr, he was found guilty and sentenced
to pay n fine Of one barrel Of beer to
his friends. That was the fate of Hall.
Hall Is very popular Mt Ely and he at.
tempted to quietly wed IA prominent
Young lady there, but his friends found
ont his secret and just as he completed
bestowing the bridal kiss. u couple of
Ely policemen burst into the wedding
0 and placed him under arrest. BE-
fore he realized II was a joke Inc wus
marching along with u pair of handouts
on his wrists. He was marched about
town and finally 10 the court house
where the mock trial was held and he
was pronounced guilty and sentenced

say Hall bought the necessary liquid
and then his friends rode him home in
style.

WHY TEA MUST NOT BOIL.

VIII Ina IVA NJ ANO4 DOAAs
There is a reason for all the things
many housewives do blindly. A good
housekeeper will never boil her tea,
though she could not tell you why.
Here is the reason: The desirable
elements in tea are the stimulating
principle, theme and the essential oil,
which gives fragrance. An undesir-
able element in tea is tannin, a bitter
astringent substance. Tannin in the
stomach interferes with digestion by
hardening the proteid substances in
the food, it also toughens and har,t-
m the lining of the stomach. The
problem is to make tea so as to Sc
ure the desirable qualities and avoid
the tannin. This is really a very
simple thing to do. The essential oil
and theme are readily and quickly
dissolved from the tea leaves upor
the application OF boiling water. Sim
mering water makes weak, insipid in
fusion tea. After tie water has stool
OF the leaves five minutes, the pres
ence of the astringent tannin is ap
parent, and if the water with tn
leaves be boiled rather than steepad
tannin is extracted in quantity. Tea
made by pouring water over tn
spent" tea leaves that have been lef
standing in a teapot from a previou
meal, is a slow but sure poison

MUSIC STUDENTS
Should Have Steady Nerves.

The rvO system of the musi-
clan is often very sensitive, and any
habit like coffee drinking may so up
set the nerves as to make regular and
necessary daily practice next to i'm
possible.
Il practice from seven to eight
hours a day and study Harmony two
hours" writes a Mich. music student.
Last September / was so nervous l
could only practice a few minutes at
a time and mother said / would have
to drop my music for a year.
This was terribly discouraging. as
couldn't bear the thought of losing
a whole year of study. Becoming
convinced that my nervousness was
caused largely by coffee, and seeing
Postum so highly spoken of, l decided
| would test it for a while.
Mother followed the directions
carefully and l thought l had never
tasted such a delicious drink. We
drank Postum every morning instead
OF coffee. and by Novemo Ger L felt
more like myself than for years, and
was ready to resume my music.
Il now practice as usual, do my
studying and when my days work. is
finished l am not n more nervous
than when / began.
Il cannot too highly recommend
Postum to musicians who practice
half a day. My father is a physician
and recommends Postum to his pa
tients. Words cannot express my ap-
probation for this most valuable
health beverage, and experience has
proven its superiority over all 9th

THE LONDON TIMES.

The London Times has been sold. II
is now the property Of Cyril Arthur
Pearson, the owner Of more newspa-
pers and various publications than
any other mar in the world. The
London Times was started January
Is, 1885, and is therefore 1872 years
old. It's original name was the Lon
don Daily Commercial Register, but
after three years this cumbersome
name was dropped by John Walter,
the founder, and it has been the
Times for 119 years. In 1915, when
the Times was 80 years old, it had a
circulation Of only 5000. When it
was 40 years old it had only 10000,
only $4,000 when SO, and only $1,000
when SO. That was a large circula-
ton fifty years ago. The circula-
ton Of the Times has grown steadily
but slowly, but its advertising has
increased in a much greater degree.
There are several London publications
which have a much larger circulation,
but the Thunderer is still the leader
in thought and influence. The paper
remained in the Walter family for
three generations. Thomas Carlyle
gave it the name of the Thunderer
when Edward Sterling vas its editor
and wrote powerfully and heavily. Its
chief editor from 1841 to 1877 was
John T. Delane, who was regarded as
the greatest editor of the greatest
newspaper in the world, and yet he
is said to have never written an edi-
torial. He was noted for his judg-
ment in selecting and employing ca
pable assistants, for gauging public
sentiment and for his executive abil-
ity. His life was spent i'll the Times
office, where he began as office boy
and was for t%hirty-six years chief edi-
to-.
The Times would accept an edi-
torial from any source if it met with
the editors approval. Having paid
for it it was the property and be-
came the utterance Of the Times.
Pearson, the new owner Of the
Times, is only Al. He founded and
owns the Parsons Weekly, Royal
Magazine, Novel Magazine, M. A. P.
Rapid Review, Pearson's Notes, and
various other periodicals. He also
founded the Daily Express, a hall
penny London morning paper; the
North Mail and the Evening Mail, a
Newcastle-onTyne; the Gazette anf
Express in Birmingham, and also tn,
Evening Dispatch in the same city
and he also owns a controlling in
terest in the London Daily Standard
one Of the best English newspapers
The Evening Standard he amalgamat
ed with the St. James Gazette. i
addition to a dozen magazines am
other periodicals he owns two dali
newspapers in Newcastle, three il
Birmingham, and four in London
The Times. the Standard and the ES
J press are great properties, and thes
newspapers reach all classes Of En-
glish society from the lowest to th
highest. Mr.. Pearson is a sort G
publication trust. He is the larges
publisher in the world. The sale c
the Times and its passage into ne
hands gives something like a shock I
the average Englishman. He wi

SANITY?

From the Richmond Times-Dispatch.
At a meeting Of the executive Of
fcers of the Seaboard Air Line at
Hamlet on Saturday it was decided
not to reduce salaries, but 200 men
were dropped from the rolls, their
wages ranging from $500 to 5000.
To say that this wholesale cutting
Of wages is due solely to the new pas
senger rate laws in the South would
be d~iverging far from the truth, but

Governors and the leaders in the rate

HOW TO KNOW PURE PAINT.
A Way In Which It May be Identified
Before USING.

After a building has been painted
long enough for a weather test, it is
easy to tell Il the paint used was
made Of pure White Lead or not. But
such belated knowledge comes like
locking the barn after the colt is sto-
len.
What one wants is a test that will
tell the quality Of the paint before it
and the labor Of putting It on are
paid for.
Nature has provided q way in
which genuine White Lead may be
positively distinguished from adul-
terated or fake White Lead before
you spend a cent on your painting.
Pure White Lead is made from me-
tallic lead, and, under intense heat,
such as is produced by q blow-pipe,
pure White Lead will resolve itself
back into metallic lead. II, however,
it is not genuine White Lead, or If 1t
contains the slightest@trace OF adul-
iteration. the change will not take
place. Therefore the "blow-pipe" test
is an absolute and final one.
The National Lead Company are
urging every M interested In paint
ing to make this test Of paint before
using it, and they guarantee that the
pure White Lead sold under their
Dutch Boy Painter" trademark will
always prove absolutely pure under
the .'blow-pipe" or any other test.
To make it easy for YOU to perform
the experiment, they will send you
free UPON request a b~low-pipe and
everything necessary for you to make
the test, together with a valuable
booklet on paint. Address, National
Lead Company, Woodbridge Building,
