tests from the politicians in charge
of Senator Foraker's anti-Taft effort
have caused the Republican national
committee to take official notice OF
the sitaution in Ohio.
In another attempt to evade tho
ordeal of submitting the choice of
Presidential candidate to the people
of the State directly, they have laid
before the national committee allie
cations that the selection of district
delegates by primary vote will be
illegal
n. B Anderson a Foraker hench
man of the Eighteenth Congressman
Kennedy's district, has been in
Washington to place his complaint
in the hands of Secretary Elmer
Dover. Mr.. Anderson assured Mr..
Dover that the provisions of the
Brownson act do not cover the cleo
tion Of district delegates. He feels
confident so he assured the secre-
tary of the national committee that
the law does not contemplate the
employment OF primaries for the
selection of such delegates and
alternates Putting the case more
emphatically, he believes that such
method would be illegal

A Real Heroine.

At a recent evening performance at
one of the fashionable theaters on
Broadway, New York, two women
came into one Of the boxes attired in
smart frocks of pale gray, who were
completely overshadowed in the inter
est of the audience by the sight of the
third woman, who had entered the box
a moment later. She was dressed in
the deepest of black with crepe veil
that hung straight down, covering her
face completely. AS soon as she had
seated herself she lifted the veil, dis
closing an extremely pretty blonde
face, her fair hair covered with the
very latest things in widows hats,
white ruche and all. AS soon as the
audience had recovered from it's aston
ishment and had time to note that she
was smiling merrily 'as she talked a
man in one of the chairs nearest to
the box turned to his companion and
remarked: Eat last one of my ambi-
lions is satisfied. 1 have seen a real
merry widow"

LAW IN ITALY MOVES SLOWLY
Man Thirty-Eight Years in House OF
Detention Without Trial.

Two little boys in Rome we're carry
ing their fathers pistol to the gun
smiths to be mended. They quarreled
and the pistol was not so much out Of
order as to keep Pietro, aged II, from
shooting Paola, aged eight.
The little fratricide was at once ar
rested, the magistrate committing him
to prison while they prepared to deal
with the case. Unfortunately for
Pietro, the day on which he shot his
brother was September IS, 1870. On
that day Gen. Bixio began his march
toward Rome and two days later he
entered the city.
The papal magistrates had ample
excuse for forgetting Pietro, and Pie
tEo was forgotten for about six months,
when the newly appointed function
aries took up his case. So deliberately
did they take it up that it was Tot
until 1882 that all the material for the
prosecution had been completed.
Then the abolition of the death pen
atty in Italy caused a fresh delay.
Three specialists were appointed to
inquire into Pietro's state Of mind,
and they disagreed, causing the affair
to be shelved indefinitely. There is
no one now who remembers at first
hand the incidents Of the crime
Pietro is 20, having spent 3S years
in the house Of detention, and once
more efforts are to Re made to bring
him finally to trial

INSOMNIA AND ALARM CLOCKS.
Physicians Recommendation for Cure
of Most Annoying Malady.

The patient complained of insom-
mia.
You must get an alarm clock at
once said the physician.
The patient stared.
81 mean it, What time do you waken
usually in the night?"
1.-TWO O'Clock lately"
"Set the alarm for Is minutes before
two. AS soon as it strikes, get up,
dress for the day and take a walk Of
not less tnan two miles. Do not go to
bed again that day under any circum-
stances, nor take a nap, even sitting
in your chair.
"The next night set the alarm at a
quarter past two. You will sleep until
it wakens you. Get up as before, and
take another two-mile walk
"The third night you can venture to
set your alarm at three. Repeat the
walk. If you are not cured by that
time you will be more difficult case
than any have had heretofore; but If
the habit of lying awake is not broken,
begin back at two o'clock again and
repeat.
Another cure for insomnia is sit
ting up with the sick. Just bind your
self to sit up all night with some
good, strong invalid, and if you are
not permanently healed of insomnia
before morning you may come back
here and l will not charge you any
thing for another prescription"

The two men fell into talk, and the

rather bitterly to the quack:
How comes it that you, without
education, skill or the least knowledge
of medicine, are able to live in the
style you do? You keep your town

your country house, while l, allowed

And out of that hundred how

poctora Without Degrees.

There are three times three too
many doctors in the country said a
victim. That means nine times too
many. But just think of the doctors
in Germany Everybody that is not a
baron is a doctor. In America we
have many thousands of doctors with
out degrees. who are made doctors by
the public, and go through life with
out diplomas. Just as soon as young
man steps behind the counter in
drug store to sell patent medicines
and soaps and tooth brushes, etc, at
three dollars a week, he is dubbed
doctor" The pharmacist back of the
prescription counter is entitled (prob-
ably) to this epithet, but all the clerks
are doctors" Customers do not know
the names of these employees. They
compromise on doctor"
