Discovery That Brought DisIllusion-
ment to Austrian Emperor.

Regarding the public agitation for
baths in elementary schools in Aus
tria, story is going the round Of
court circles Of recent experience
Of the emperor. says the Pail Mall
Gazette. His majesty was visiting a
school In a small country district. A
local official, anxious to impress the
sovereign with the progressive ideas
prevailing in the community, called
bis attention to the fact that the
schoolhouse was provided with baths
for the pupils.
The emperor showed the liveliest In.
terest. and Immediately asked to see
the bathroom, whereupon the director
OF the school looked extremely un.
comfortable. The key could not be
found for some time, and his majesty
began to get impatient. Finally 1t was
produced, and the eager official opened
the door.
The emperor stepped into 4 verit-
able lumberroom, filled with a choice
collection Of broken desks and chairs
and waste paper that completely hid
the bath equipment
The emperor stepped quickly out
again. and as he did so was heard to
murmur: Serves me right. Why was

The new roadbed of the st. Pau

and continued at his labor until few
days ago, when he stole horse from
neighbor and rode to Herman,
Mimi, where he sold the animal to
w. L. Wilkins for $50. With this
money he went to Minneapolis.

they have STAYED off the nomination

That much accomplished as a result
of the primaries and conventions just

land they now purpose complete
change of tactics and will initiate an
aggressive campaign in the direct in
terest of Governor Johnson
THEODORE Knappen, at the Johnson
headquarters at the Grand Pacific ho-

forces are now assured of control of
more than one-third of the Denver
convention.
MIR. Bryan is now a defeated candi-
date for the Democratic presidential
nomination. said Mr. Knappen. ''The
action of Louisiana in failing to in.
struct for Bryan and in sending an
uninstructed delegation to Denver;
the result in Maryland, where Mr.. Bry.

Mr.. Bryan's friends were disastrously
defeated, sufficiently Indicate thai
more than one-third Of the convention

"Our first effort was to work for the
situation which now exists; that is
to hold one-third of the convention out

been accomplished we will start i'm

Nature has nrnpided the stomach

Nature has provided the stomach
with certain natural fluids known as
the digestive juices, and it is through
these juices That the food we eat is
acted upon in such a way as to pro-
duce the rich, red blood that flows
through the veins of our body and
thereby makes US sIrong, healthy and
robust, and it is the weakening of
these digestive juices that destroys
health. It is our own fault if we ae-
stroy our own health, and yet it is so
easy for anyone to put the stoa ach
out of order. When you need to AXE
something take IL promptly, but axe
something you know is reliable-so me-
