THAT GIRL OF YOURS.
By EDWIN A. ME.
Copyright. 1908 by Edwin A. Nye.

f"In seven-tenths of the 5000 casei of insanity among women which have
 come under my netice the cause was
 directly traced to the malign innu ences of childhood"
 So says an insanity expert. | What he means is that our moderr system of rearing girls does not per init them to properly develop their girlhood.
 Rather startling: If you will look about you, you will note evidences of the false system. How seldom do you see developed, vigorous. physically forceful girl! If you look into the schoo!rooms you will discover many pretty faces aglow with intellect, but you will also see droop- ing shoulders, evidences of weak rpineS. sunken chests, blanched faces, lack Of initiative life forces. Is 1t not true? Where are the girls who are to be the Spartan mothers of the race? You will find them not among the native but among the foreign born. Where are the "tomboys" blithe, lusty, wide hipped deep chested. agile crea- lures. cheeks ruddy with red corpuscles the climbing romping, laughing. whistling girls?
 You will find some of them ill the country districts, few in city gymne- siums.
 What our girls need is more of ex ercise and less of repression, less of primping and pampering more of sun light and air, less of cosmetics and chocolates.
 Ask the doctors. If you have d strong girl of high spirits, be proud of her. Do not try to tone down her superintendent vital ity. She will need all she can store up some day. Let her run wild like an Indian maiden. Do not try to quench that happy laugh of hers which some people think is too boisterous for good form.
 Let the girl run.
 MAKE X STRONG ANIMAL OF HER first of all.
 Tough muscles, red blood. action, ap- petite, spirits-FOR THESE THINGS IS SHE A GIRL.
 Never mind the freckles on her nose, the tan on her cheek. They will come off Never mind her long stride and fence climbing agility. Plenty of time to tone down. Even hoidenish swag- ger is infinitely to be preferred to scrambled brains, overwrought nerves and overpoIished manners-and doc tors bills.
 Some day that tomboy of yours will marry What wife and mother she will make. Her children will rise up and call her blessed.
 Don't coop your girl. Don't treat her like q house bloom
 Let the girl run.

not be stopped by insectide nor by the importation of insects to prey upor them is already an established fact and the only possible remedy lies il bird protection.
 The protection of game birds and animals as contemplated by the Fort Smith tournament is all right and will receive the endorsement of all inter- ested in the perpetuation of the spe' cies devoted to sport but the move ment should have broader scope. Il should cover the smaller birds and mammals, which are natures guar dians, created wholly for the purpose of preserving the balance between de- structive insects and the commodities upon which they prey.

kUROPATKIN MEMOIRS.

The exact causes of the great Rus Iso-Japanese war have never been made plain. Apparently the two na- tons were brought into conflict by the aggressions of Russia; but what 1 lay back of these aggressions has never yet been shown. Now, foul years after the time, the secret his tory Of the events leading up to the war, .s revealed by the first publica- tion in the September number of Nc Cures magazine, of the Memoirs of General Kuropatkin, Russia's minis ter of war and commander-in-ch chief which were suppressed by the Rus sian government.
 The revelations of this document show. war more barbaric and me- diaeval in it's origin than could have been imagined. It was not, primarily a war of national antagonism; it was a war of personal greed. A million men were killed, wounded or dis abled; hundreds of millions of money were lost to protect the speculation of highly placed personages in a timber company in COrea.
 That the Yalu timber concessions had considerable part in the open ing hostilities between Russia and Japan has been known; but the influ- ences working through this company have not been seen. In 1898 a Rus sian promoter named Briner secured timber rights of fabulous value from the Corean government; in 1902 these came into the hands of Alexander Mikhailovich Bezobrazoff, specula- tor and promoter with high connec- ton in St. Petersburg.
 From that time on, Bezobrazoff- holding minor office of state cOun- sellor-became great and mysteri- ous power back of the throne of Rus sia Imperial ministers were openly charged of being afraid of sdlim. The reason for this was that this pro- moter was backed by the investments of the funds of the czar of Russia and the whole royal family. It was this promoter. whose acts dragged Russia against her will, into war with Japan.

to find lodgment in the breast of some people in regard to banded outlawry carried on in the name of justice, or retaliation, or protection, or any other high-sounding incentive is shameful, and shows state of affairs which seriously hampers law enforce ment. The night rider is not hero Fis operations in Kentucky show con- clusively that he is nothing more than a vicious desperado who stops at noth- ipS-even to the shooting Of women 32j chiidren-and whose only motive is rapine.

PROTECT THE GAME.

The tournament to be held at Fort Smith at an early date has, at least a good object. It may accomplish moth : ing, but it should have the credit for starting move in the right direction
 There is a disposition on the part Of the Federal government to con- serve the forest and all sane men will endorse it, but when it comes to the equally vital matter of protecting the birds, fishes and animals of the country there seems to be lack of interest which can be explained only upon the hypothesis that there has not been correct understanding of this matter The Audobon Society has done good work along this line. but it is hampered by lack of funds and a lack of friends.
 Great piles of figures can be shown by statisticians proving the enormous and useless destruction of birds and animals whose existence is absolutely necessary to the welfare of the cOun- try They occupy a vital niche in the economy of nature, and while they may. in times of food scarcity, invade the sacred precincts of the farm and garden or even the barnyard, their destructiveness to noXious insects and mammals is conceded to be the only effective check upon what would otherwise prove plague,
 An example of the penalty following the senseless destruction of birds can bo found in the spread of the cotton boil weevil. From small beginning in Southern Texas it has brought dis aster upon the cotton planter as far north as Oklahoma and as far east as Mississippi with no prospect of it's progress being checked by any artifi- cial means. It is a question of birds and undamaged crops or boil weeyils and destruction.
 It is a well known fact that the plume hunter has slaughtered the birds in Southern Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi by thousands 10 adorn the Queenly brow of femininity, and < is equally we'll known that the in- crease and spread of the bol, weevil has been co-incident with the de struction of bird life in these local- ties. That the plague of weevils can

It is said that night riders are oper- ating in Arkansas, and it is said so often that people are beginning to be- leve it. What is more to the point, tIere is q strong suspicion that there is truth in these reiterated statements.
 Kentucky has been criticised for rermitting this particular brand of lawlessness to go unchecked so long; it has been charged that the Ken lucky officials have been derelict in their duty and that politics has been the prime cause for the spread of law lessness in that state Arkansas has contributed it's share of this criticism and now the state is called upon to face a situation, which if not promptly remedied,' will place it in position precisely similar to that of Kentucky
 It has not been stated that the night rider movement has anything Hike perfect organization. Its mani festations have been more or less sporadic, and therefore not of nature to cause undue alarm; but if it is not put down while in an inclpient stage it will certainly grow to dangerous proportions, and the Arkansas critics of Kentucky will be placed ill the position of the pot which made un- seemly remarks concerning it's neigh bor. the kettle.
 If it is true that these midnight n.arauders have begun operations ill Arkansas, then We say in all serious ness that the law should be promptly ard vigorously upheld. It can he ,lone and should be done, and without de- lay.

dissenting vote, the settlement effected by
the committees with the polishers, lump
ers, boxers and derrickmen was approved.
The agreement reached between the
manufacturers and the Jumpers, boxers
and derrickmen runs for three years, pro-
vides for an eight-hour day with weekly
pay and an average wage of 271s cents
per hour.
Throughout the long controversy no
bitterness nor hard feeling has developed,

joiced that everything was settled for
three years. Work in all the depart
ments was resumed Monday morning.
The settlement with the cutters and
quarrymen was made two weeks ago, and
the quarrymen have been working since

Did Not Steal Letters.

Miss Katherine u. Dunlevy OF Bratlle-
boro, who was enjoined recently, on bill
of discovery, from proceeding further
with her suit against Edward j. Fenton
for damages in the sum of $4,000 for al
legged breach of promise until she had dis
closed what she knew about the disap-
pearance of some letters, photographs and
other documents from desk in Mr.. Fen
toms store, filed her answer with the
county clerk at Newfane last Thursday.
Mr.. Fenton alleged in his bill that Miss
Dunlevy wrote HIM letter intended to
deceive him before be broke off his mar
rage engagement; that she visited his
store one night after her suit was
brought, ostensibly to talk about the
case; that his desk was open and that he
believed she took from his desk that let
ter. together with others, which he said
were material to his case.
Miss Dunlevy, in her answer, says she
did visit Mr.. Fenton's store, but at his
own request, but says she never wrote
Mr.. Fenton a letter like the one he men
TONED. She admits having in her con-
troll 25 letters, 10 of which were written
by women other than herself, and six by
men. Copies of all the letters are at
tdched.
Some treat of business matters and 9th
erS mention love analrs- Sne says sne
got the letters from her brother, Joseph
Dunlevy, and says her belief is that after
Mr.. Fenton vacated his store Joseph Dun
levy was sent in by his employer to clean
up the waste paper and found the letters.
All this, Miss Dunlevy says, was told he
fore the grand jury and was brought out
by States Attorney r. c. Bacon, who is
one of Mr.. Fenton's counsel.
She says Mr.. Fenton has had reason to
know since the September. term of court
that she had the letters and that he wait
ed until the day before the opening OF the
present term OF court before bringing his
bill of discovery, the trial of the case hav-
ing been set for this term. His course is
characterized as a subterfuge for hinder
ing her action.
Miss Dunlevy asks that the injunction
be dissolved and hearing on the ques-
ton will be held in q few days.
