Russian Novelist Happy in His Exile.
 Paris. March 13-The correspondent of "Le Temps" has had an interview with Maxim Gorki. who Is staying at Capri. The Russian novelist denies the rumor published recently that he was implicated in the affair of Azeff. and that the Russian government had demanded his extradition. T attribute the rumor," he said, "to the craze of certain journals for sensationalism. and to the fact that in Russia l have many enemies who would gladly be- smirch my character. The Russian government has instituted proceedings against me for certain things wrote in a recently published novel. La Mere" which has been translated into French. They accuse me of holding up to ridicule the Orthodox religion and certain of its observances.
 According to Russian law. an off, fence of this kind Is punishable by three years Imprisonment or exile to Siberia. In acting thus. the authori- ties are simply making themselves ridiculous in the eyes of the world. As I am outside of Russia and in free country, the myrmidons of the Tsar cannot touch me. for mine, happily, is not an extraditable offence"

BRITISH SAY DOCTORS
 STAND IN OWN LIGHT

London, March 13-How medical men are destroying their own profession as a means of livelihood is the subject of an article in this British Medical Journal" In which a recent address by President Eliot, of Harvard University, Is quoted.
 "Tt is doubtless true." says the British Medical Journal" that the medicine. of the future will be to large extent preventive. President Eliot does not point out the remark able fact that the progress in science which is to change the healing art into preventive science has been the work of the doctors themselves.
 '"The fact was surely remarkable enough to deserve mention for 1t Is the one example of a profession striving to abolish the reason for its own exist ence and to dry up the sources from which 1t draws its livelihood. And what Is It's reward? Hatred and all uncharitableness on the part of fanatics who. If they could, would stop all progress; carefully meas ured encouragement from the state and from public bodies. and indifference from the people at large, who, owing to the extinction of the scourges from which they have been delivered. can not appreciate what has been done for their welfare"

COVERED OVER 100000 MILES IN
 NINE YEARS.
It h The Greatest Distance Covered In That Time By Any Person of
 Prominence in Ancient or Modern Times.

When President Taft went to Wash fngton to be inaugurated he had com pleted an itinerary of nine years, Tn which he travelled more than 100000 miles, a greater distance than that by any other person of prominence In ancient or modern times. In addition to an almost unprecedented number of journeys in this country, the Presl- dent went four times to Manila, includ- ing one visit on his way around the globe: five times to Panama and twice to Cuba. touching at Porto Rico once on his way home. In his campaign East and West, North and South. 1t was estimated that he covered more than 1s.ooe miles, and that is below the figures.
 upon the surface of the earth began in March, 1900. It came about In this way:
 While on hls way to Canton. in 1899. President Mckinley had as a com The Philippine questions was in its acute stage A Philippine commission had been provided for by Congress Turning to MT. Day. the President said;
 T want a man to head the Philippine Commission who is strong, honest and tactful-a man of education and execu- tive ability. a man fearless. but con servative. and one who VIII get along with the military authorities.
 Why. Mir. President" Mir, Day said' you have described Billy Taft'
 He was Judge Taft at the time, and when President Mckinley sent tele- graph message asking him to come to Washington the judge wondered what it was all about. But. of course. he went. Then the offer of head Of the commission was made. and receiving two weeks in which to decide, Judge Taft made up his mind that he would accept although he had made It clear to the President that he did not ap- prove of keeping the islands. That decision started the big man going. and with only a few months intermission he was going right up to the time he took the train for Washington to De the head of the nation.
 Called Walking Delegate.
 "Walking delegate for the white mans civilization" his brother Henry called him. President Tafts view of the wisdom of his travels was express ed at Washington in August. 1907. just before starting on his journey around the globe. He said:
 Extensive travel is good thing for a Cabinet officer; 1t is mutually bene- ficial to him and the people of the localities in which he travels. because it enables him to get intimately in touch with local conditions and the people to gain a closer acquaintance with him and the problems with which he has to deal. I have gained inestIm- able benefits from my journeys but have not yet been seized with the wan derlust"
 The table of distances which makes the total Of miles traveled. 202.114. does not include his many journeys up and down the Philippine group of is- lands. It computes the circumnaviga- ton of the earth at 28.000, which does not allow for all the great distances

BEAUTIFUL HAIR FROM A HOMEMADE TONIC

Every woman desires beautiful hair and a good tonic is just as much necessary adjunct to the toilet as is soap or tooth powder. But good hair tonics are expensive. Here Is a recipe for a homemade preparation that will give as good or better results than the highest priced ready made tonics and not cost half as much. Mix half a pint of alcohol with half a pint of water, add an ounce of Beta Quinol. Simply shake well together and your tonic Is ready for use. If you prefer you can use a pint of imported bay rum instead of the alcohol and water. Beta Quinol used daily will give vitality. health and attractiveness to the hair. Any wo- man who appreciates the value of lux uriant, soft and glossy hair cannot af- ford to be without this almost magical uuinine hair tonic. Any druggist will sell you the Beta Quinol and alcohol or bay rum.

covered to and from places out of the direct line of travel. No great im- portsnce was attached to his oompara- lively short journeys when at home from the Far East in 1902. and for a few years after his return to take the Secretaryship of War. although he was seldom long in one place. Even when apparently at rest he kept moving on a golf field at some place of tempor- ary abode. and this added to the miles. To go from Washington to New York or from the capital to his old home, Cincinnati was suburban 1aunt to him, and of as much moment so far as exertion was concerned.
 Distances Covered By Years.
 The table of miles covered by years shows that if he had kept up the average set for the first two months of 1909 he would have nearly equalled the record for 1908 and exceeded that for any other year. The table follows. the mileage for 1901 and 1902 counting the return Journey from Manila as com . pleted, although he was on board ship when the years closed
