Times Have Changed.

How time have changed
When we were young, people had
bad colds, soaked their feet in
hot water and got well. Now
they have the grip, take quinine
and feel sick all summer. Then
they had a sore throat, wrapped
a piece OF fat pork in a sock, tied
it around the neck at night and
went to work the next morning.
Now they have tonsolitis, a surg
ical operation and two weeks in
the house. Then they had stom-
ach ache and took caster oil and
recovered. Now they have APP
pendicitis, a week in the hospit-
al and six feet due east and west
six feet perpendicular. They
worked then; they labor now
In those days they wore under
clothes /; now they wear lingerie
Then they went to restaurants
now they go to a cafe. Then they
broke a leg now they fracture G
limb. People went crazy then
now they have a brain storm
Politicians then paid good hare
cash for support, now the.
send government garden seeds
Yes times have changed, and W,
all change with the times
That's progress.on.-Exchange.

Wright's Airship Wrecked.

Washington, Sept. 17.-Whi,e
the famous Wright aeroplane
was in full flight above the
grounds OF Fort Myer to-day it
plunged to earth, bearing Orville
Wright to fearful injury and Lieu
tenant Thomas Selfridge to his
death. Wright the inventor and
pilot Of the machine, is suffering
from a fractured left hip and
several broken ribs on his right
side. Lieutenant Selfridge's
skull was fractured at the base
and he died a few minutes past
8 O'Clock tonight, in tha Fort
Myer Hospital, about three hours
after the accident. Physicians
at Wr,ght's bedside are hopeful
Of his recovery. He rallied from

one Of Marshall good Demo-
Gratis Monday remarked that
his chief interest in the coming
election is to see Gov. FOX in
the U. S. Senate to enable him to
clean up the corruption in that
body. We remarked that we
were in hearty sympathy if or
ruption existed and Gov. Folk
could remedy matters But a
second thought recalled the faca
that the only corruption in the
Senate as far as Gov. Folk point
ed out in his speech last Satur-
day was the "robber tariff and
that's a point we show him up
very clearly wrong in another
editorial this week II there's
corruption in the Senate we
hope 1t will speedily be rooted
out by either Republicans or
Democrats. But we believe the
public should be told specifically
what wrongs RI being per-

Do we need a market for our
products? The State Labor
Bureau has just issued it's annual
report which says that our sur
plus products" sent out OF the
county, amount to S7,312,212.00,
or $3.50 for every man, woman
and child in Saline. Does 1t make
any difference to you farmers.
whether you get $3.50 or $40?
Don't you think it more impor-

OF $11Oo for every family, for
your products than it Is to try
to save $40 duty ON hats and
collar buttons? Let's think these
things over.

Gov. Folk in his speech Satur-
day made some convincing state
ments-convincing to those who
couldn't see deeper than his state
ments. For instance, he said, in
effect, that If there were five
shoe manufacturers in Saline
county they would get together
and have a tariff law put into
effect. II they could get a tariff
OF $500 put on every shoe inn
ported into the county they
would naturally charge $500 for
a $500 shoe, thereby robbing the
people and forming a trust
Therefore, he argured, that che
tariff should be removed.
Take it for granted that there
were five shoe factories in Saline
and there was a tariff OF $2.0(
on every $500 shoe that is solC
here, what would keep the people
OF Saline from buying all theil
shoes from without the count.

The aeroplane-the man bird

problem OF aerial navigation and

way-is a shapless, tangled, total

That exquisite care and

every lever, tautened every

Clubs for

gCan Smoke and Talk
Crops and Politics.

Washington, Sept. 17.-Farm-
ers in all sections of the country
are ma~nifcsting great interest
mt the forthcoming meeting OF
the commission in farm life APP
pointed by President Roosevelt.
What do the farmers need in
additions to bountiiul crops to
make them happy?
What can the government do
to populate the farms ana keep
the agriculturists out OF the
cities?
These questions are being ans
wered by the farmers themselves
since the President appointed
the commission OF five experts to
investigate. While the commits
sion will not assemble for a week
or ten days, letters ore coming
in from farmers who have ideas
to suggest;
1t is surprising TO the officials
here who are reading these let

four corners of the United States

ity houses.
The club life that means so
much to the city man is wanted
| by the farmers, along with the
other features OF rural progress.
They want a place to meet, to
smoke, to white, talk crops and
read.
Some suggest that the meeting
rooms could be provided in con-
nection with the schoolhouses,
Others that a spare room OF two
might be found at the postoff.ces
No one has intimated that the
government should build each
community such a house.

The loss OF SCI 900 from the
subtreasury in st. Louis is being
made a political issue. 1t is to
laugh. In our opinion the govern
ment should not lose this money.
But II it in right that the govern
ment should lose it, then it's
merely an incident Of an unavoid-
able steal. In 1895, when dollars
looked as big As full moons, the
editor had two book-keepers
make a haul and getaway with

the thief has more time to plan
a theft than a busy man has to

A Toast To Women

Clever repartee is ever enjoyed, but 1t is not always the case that two wits are matched so well that in giving toast the "retort -discourteous' is made so quietly that the applause of the multitude Is enlisted. However at very recherche dinner party recent ly a brilliant woman responded to toast in such a manner that those who were present, marveled at her quick, bright wit An avowed woman-hater was called upon to respond to the toast Lovely Woman" He repeated the well known lines:
 Here's to the women who are tender, Here's to the women who are slender, Here's to the women who are large
 and fat and red Here's to the women who are married Here's to the women who have tarrieG, Here's to the women who are speech

Creed For Club Women

Mrs Robert Burdette, who is an en- thusiastic club woman. has arranged creed for club women which is well worth knowing. It is practical and possible, and should be adopted by clubs everywhere. Among the articles of faith contained in Mrs. Burdette'e creed are these:
 'I believe in the nine-tenths of the club members doing the work and one-tenth doing the criticising, instead of the re- verse.
 q believe in individual responsibility for every interest of the club, mutual sympathy and appreciation of results.
 q believe that women should have moral responsibility regarding financial matters in the prompt payment of dues and pledges, and a comprehension that as no other phase of life can be carried on without money, neither can tne en- larged club life.
 q believe in the value of a minute, and that thievery of time on the part of one late member from those in waiting is reprehensibe.
 others, in removing the hat in all public assemblies.
 "I believe in occupying the seat from the aisle whei. chere are others to come. and for the same reason occupying the front seats first.
 'I believe that no woman should seek or use official position for self-aggran- dizement of club affiliations for stepping stones only, but that sine should utilize her opportunities for the altruisms of life
 q believe that the character and good name of each individual mem per of the club should be as sacredly qua rded by all other members as are those of the fam fly. and that the use of dishonorable political methods in club life for women

Fat and Forty

It seems much easier to rid ones self of superfiuous flesh than to acquire it.
 "Of course, this is from the thin wom- ans point of view some one will say; but as matter of fact it is true Many things which require little effort may be practically employed.
 First of all, dont use drugs. The re- suit may be far worse than flesh
 A good flesh brush properly handled is an effective weapon against obesity. One of Manila 1bre-soft. yet harsh enough to cause decided friction-is the proper kind. The skin will become irritated at first, but go right ahead, gently and steadily, and you will soon reap the benefit
 Walk as much as possible. Motors, car riages, and trolley cars are the enemies of fat people.
 Don't sleep yourself to death if you would be thin and willowy. When you feel somnolence creeping upon you, get out in the open air and set an interest ing mission and stay awake. Do your sleeping at nights-eight good hours of it. but leave off the siesta.
 Use plenty of cold water-frequently, and then some more-and if you dear, good-natured fat women aren't convinced
