Cramp Rings.

Formerly it was customary for kings
Of England on Good Friday to hallow
certain rings, the wearing of which
prevented cramp or epilepsy.
They were made from the metal OF
decayed collins and consecrated with
an elaborate ceremony, some details
of which are still preserved. They
were highly recommended by the
medical profession" about 1867, for
Andrew Boorde, in his "Breviary OF
Health" speaking Of cramp, says:
"The kynge's majestic hath a great
helpe in this matter in hallowing
crampe ringes without money or petit.
ton"
J! Occasionally cramp rings played a
persuasive part in diplomacy, Lord
Berners, our ambassador at the court
of Charles ", wrote in 1903 ito my
lorde CARDINALS grace" for some
"crampe ryngs," with trust to "bestowe
them well, by Gods grace"

What is the best thing in life?
I queried recently. have raised the
same question aforetime, and found
the majority of responses leaned to
human affection" Surely there Is
nothing that comes to us by the grace
of God so helpful as the friend" who
may be a husband, wife, sister or
a brother, who knows the best Of us
and the worst Of us, and who can
love us still, ready to stand by us
till the morning when our craft is
grounded In the shadows or is help
lessly stationary in maelstrom vortex,
when we need all the strength our
God can give, simply to live, my
friend, simply to live. How rare

In the Future.

! The latest scheme is to set type by
wireless.
OF course there will be few occa
sions when this sort of typesetting
can be utilized, but 1t should give the
intelligent compositor feeling of real
comfort to realize that when out OF
town he can hustle to the nearest
wireless station and set a column or
two Of type matter in the home office,
with all the usual typographical err
rors in evidence.
Possibly the newspaper plant of the
future will be 80 scientifically
equipped that all the work connected
with 1t can be done somewhere else,
and nobody will be required around
the premises except the cleaners and

to state that no such statements
have been made within our hear
ing, evidently discreetly having
been made to others. The reason
for this we do not know or care.
To such foolish statements (if
true) we give the laugh. While
we are not around in search of
trouble, or constructed for pugi-
hstic performances, we have not
yet been used as punching bag
for anyone, and have no fear of
any threats, which were un-
doubtedly made by some one
whose vision and clear reasoning
were at that moment in utter
darkness. Also, in regard to put
ting anyone's name in this paper,
we will say it is none of their
business. We print whatever we
please in this paper and are the
sole censor of all contained there
in and responsible for the same.
If we desire to publish any
name in this paper, in it
will go, regardless ofany threats.
The very best way to get any
thing published in this paper is
to say that you will lick the edi
tor if he puts it in. We dearly
love to accept them at their word,
as good threshing by an irate
reader of the paper is something
that mighty few editors can
boast of. If about one half of
one percent of such threats were
ever carried out, all the mighty
host of pen-pushers the world
over would be in the hospitals.
Many times we have refrained
from publishing certain incidents
and doings of people on account
of a charitable feeling toward
them, but we give notice right
here and now, so that anyone
misguided enough to make such
idle assertions may be warned,
that we will never stand for CEN
sorship by others. Such bluffs
will be Immediately called. If
anyone honestly believes that he
has been wronged by this paper,
aud the same is brought to our
attention in a gentlemanly man
ner. and it is proven hey yond a
shadow of a doubt that we are
in error, the wrong will be re-
dressed.

paper to wilfully publish mis-
statement regarding any matter
or person. 1t is true that Occa-
sionly wrong statements do ap-
pear in these columns, but it is not
the fault of the editor, as he
merely states to the best OF his
knowledge and ability the sent1-
ments and opinions ofothers and
what he hears. If he is misin-
formed it is not his fault that
false statements are sometimes
printed. The duties of an editor
cannot be better expressed than
by the following lines:
Il know not what the truth may
be,
| tell it to you as it was told to
me-"
if this paper publishes an item
that is afterwards proven to be
untrue, and is called to our atten-
ton, we are glad to correct the
same. We always stand IN read1-
ness to give everyone a square
deal in every sense OF the word.
Anyone stating to the contrary
is laboring under an illusion.
Last Saturday exception was
taken by divers parties to the
article appearing in the second
column OF the front page regard
ing the then-pending ball game.
1t IS stated that we gave one
team and their supporters the
worst of it. We are of a different
opinion, and if the article is read
carefully, it will be seen that this
paper made no direct statements
regarding anyone. 1t merely
stated the truth as to what the
sentiment of the town was re-
garding the game. There were
few MINOR errors as to just
where the players were to
come from. Aside from that
there was absolutely nothing in
the article giving any person or
persons the worst of it IN any
way. If the statement that the
players were not listed to the
proper town injured or slandered
anyone, we hereby apologize,
but consider 1T nothing for any
one to take exception to. Who
gave out the information as to
where the ball tossers were to
hail from? We gave the names
of the places where they were re-
ported to reside.
AS a result one of our old and
valued subscribers Immediately
discontinued his subscription. In
lieu thereof we have had the ex-
treme satisfaction of adding to
our list three new subscribers,
all OF which were voluntary and
unsolicited on our part.

SIGHT RESTORED
AFTER THIRTY YEARS
"Oh How Beautiful the World"
Said Young Woman.

New York, March PLATTER thirty
years of blindness, Alice Hollis of
Port Huron, Mich, had her sight re
stored. "Oh, how beautiful everything
appears" exclaimed the girl in amaze
ment, as she left the dark room of a
German physicians hospital in Ger
many, according to a dispatch received
here from Berlin.
Miss Hollis became blind when a
young girl. Entering a blind school
in Michigan, she became proficient in
music and later entered the music
teaching profession. BY this means,
although her sight was totally want
ing, she was able to support herself
as we'll as her mother during the lat
ter's declining years. Hearing of a
case similar to hers cured by Ger
man specialist, she carefully collected
her resources and sailed for Europe,
where the successful operation was
performed.

COMMISSION MAKES
RAILROAD RULING
Must Divide Charges for VAR
iouS ConvenienCeS Of
fered to Travellers.

Washington, March 21.-Hereaft-
er in arranging personally conducted
tours railroads must, under an inform
al ruling by the interstate commission,
divide their charges for transpOrta-
ton and for meals and hotel accom-
modations, according the traveller the
right to accept transportation alone.
In order to stimulate travel carriers
are privileged to give entertainment
at point on their lines and may con-
tribute to the same in a definite sum,
but without making it dependent upon
the number of tickets sold. This sup
posedly is designed to neutralize the
drastic rule heretofore made prohibit
ing the time hOnOred practice of con-
tracing with Sunday schools and or
CARNATIONS for excursions, the rates
for which were based upon the sale Of
specific number of tickets. The
railroads usually returned 70 the par
ties in such cases a percentage or all
of the receipts above a certain sum
upon a reduced rate. The new rule
allows a certain elasticity and latitude
which will presumably enable societ-
les TO again conduct excursions which
could not be arranged for last sum-
mer.

PLUM HUNTERS ARE
SECURING PLACES
Democrats Are Now Going to
Denver for Democratic
Convention.
FOR VICE-PRE SIDEN T,
RACE FOR THIS POSITION ON MA
TIONAL TICKET WILL BE SPiR-
ITED-ALL THE BIG MEN TO BE
THERE.

Denver, Colo, March 21.-ThiS city
promises to be the scene OF highly eX-
citing times when the democratic nat
ional convention meets here july i'm.
Headquarters are being secured Tor
candidates for the nomination or pre-
sident and vice president daily and 1t
appears there will be a large number
of aspirants for the official plums OF
the democratic party.
w. J. Bryan is to be in Denver April
9th to deliver an address. Gov. John
A. Johnson of Minnesota is expected
at a later date. Judge George Gray
of Wilmington, Delaware, has already
secured headquarters here from which
to make a campaign for nomination
for president. Sylvester CHAMBER lieu
tenant governor of New York is ex-
pected to open headquarters here also
within a short time and begin cam
paign for the presidential nomination,
backed by the votes Of the delegation
from the Empire state.
The nomination for vice president
seems to be one that attracts more
than ordinary attention. 1t is doubt
full if there will be single uninstruc-
ted state delegation at the convention
pledged on the choice Of vice presi-
dent and the selection of a man
that position on the ticket will be
thoroughly spirited. A score of aspir
ants for the place have already visit
ed Denver either in person or by rep
resentative and will open headquart-
ers here during the convention.
Hotel and restaurant keepers here
have pledged themselves in writing to
the national democratic committee not
to raise hotel rates and the prices of
meals and lodging will be the same
during the convention as when there
is no crowd in the city.
1t Is expected that large gathering
of notable politicians of the democra-
tic persuasion will come to Denver
during the convention. Already elab-
crate suites of rooms in the leading
hotels have been reserved for men
who are well known leaders of the
party. 1t is expected that nearly all
the candidates for president and vice
president will make preliminary trips
to Denver and deliver addresses here
while looking over the ground with a
view to outlining their votes in the
convention.

All were orderly until the orchestra
struck up a lively air for the turn

the music, one of the patients jumped
from her seat and, running down the

She just grazed the head of the plan

the dancing. The audience was in a
tumult, but the woman was finally re-
moved from the stage by the matron
