ADJUSTED HIS CANE.
Then the Man From Berlin Explained
Why He Did Il.

why ne LILO *.
A man stood before shop window
with his cane sticking out from under
his arm. A stout. blond gentleman in
passing struck the cane Smartly with
his own, restoring it from its obstruc-
tive horizontal position to the proper
vertical one.
Say. what's the matter with you?
You're the freshest guy I ever saw.
Are you looking for troubIe?"
Thus said the man whose cane had
been tapped. But he who had tapped
it, speaking with a German accent, an
swered gently:
why. sir, did nothing but restore
your cane to it's right inclination. Abb
sently you were holding it under your
arm. 1t was jabbing people in the
breast. the back, even the eye. and yet
you meant no harm.
"Well. I stopped that nuisance which
you were unconsciously committing. In
Berlin it is the custom always to stop
it so. And no one takes offense. On
the contrary. in Berlin the correction is
received with Il smile and word of
thanks. Isn't it so here?"
NO, it isn't" said the other. "but it
should lie. | thank You. sir. myself, and
apologize" New York Press.

swear" is nothing but rubbing.

''Wear' is nothing but rubbing"
Every time you hard rub your clothes
against anything, little PARTICLES are
rubbed away.
Boiling softens the fibre of cotton,
linen, silk and wool, and when rubbed
hard on the washboard' they wear away
faster than at any other time.
Try to think how many days of wear
are represented by one trip to the old
time waShtub.
Fels-Naptha requires neither boiling
water nor hard rubbing.
And there is no waShboard wear on
the clothes washed the Fels-Naptha way.
Fels-Naptha is made to do away with
boiling and hard rubbing; therefore if
you use it as an ordinary soap, you cause
yourself unnecessary work.
Use FelS-Naptha In cool or luke
warm water and it will do all we claim.
It will cut the washday in half, sum-
mer or winter, and do silently and effec-
lively all the real hard work.
If you follow the simple directions
on the red and green wrapper, you will
never return to ordinary soaps and the
old-fashioned way of washing.

Frank Rockefeller. brother Of John D.
Rockefeller, had been asked to resign
from the directorate Of the Orphan
Copper Company. because he had vio-
lated an agreement with the other d.
rectors of the company.
Frank Rockefeller was seen at his
home in Cleveland last night and his
statement puts an entirely different
complexion on his connection with the
Orphan Copper Company. Mr.. Rookie
teller said:

from any officer Of the company any
notice OF my being elected a director.
''Inasmuch as ] have never been a
director. 1 do not see how I could be
forced out"
Frank Rockefeller is a fighter. Though
he could have been worth innumerable
millions II he had remained friendly
with his brother, John D Rockefeller,
he preferred 10 fight him. and the two
have been bitter enemies for years,
though az one time they we're associated
