EDITOR MAKES A CONFESSION.
Anticipates joys to Be INDUCED in
During Wfes Absence Prove
llusory.

Our wife is gone Gone to visit QUE
mother-in-law Gone back to the old
home and the real cream. Back to
the old oaken bucket and the mud pies
of memory. We are not saying this
to make other men envious whose
wives are not gone. But it is a sort
OF whistle to keep our courage up.
For long time the opportunity TO
hang out all night and make mon.
key OF ourselves has hooked good.
Now, with no restraint on our conduct.
no fearful wife waiting to throw her
hooks into our hair, no one to lie to,
nobody to pacify with artful inven-
tons, no person to care a whoop
whether we go TO the bughouse or not,
now that the very hour and moment
is pregnant with witchery and our
horoscope is psychologically correct
for riotous period of debauchery, we
get sleepy at $3.50 and NOPE off to bed
like a mollusk.
It's enough TO drive an ostentatious
drunkard to the Kelley institute. Solo
has lost its charms and highballs are
a mockery. We do not want to play
poker or lick up suds or do any of the
hundred disreputable things that a
few days ago seemed so enhancing.
If things had PANIED out as antici-
pated we would be an actor in the
Jolll1cation drama instead of it's play

BAD HABIT TO BE AVOIDED.
Little Discourse on the Subject Of
Dragging, from the Columns Of
Contemporary.

Dragging is such an easy habit to
fall into that nearly every little de-
light opens the way, and it requires a
very strong character to resist the in
clination. 1t may be classed as a dis
courtesy, and what makes it so is not
the theme so much as the waste Of
time required to indulge it. There is
another objection, and that is, it en-
courages the use of many superla-
tives, which is never in good form, be-
cause they are mostly used to fill up
empty minds, says the Ohio State
Journal.
Still another problem, which is that
Dragging is placing a discount upon
the person listening. for he is re-
minded of his own inferiority. For in
stance, the other day man told US
of catching seven-pound fish, which
had the effect of making us feel in
significant and uncomfortable. until a
friend informed us that he had seen
the fish and that il weighed only
three pounds, which suggested to us
another objection to Dragging, which
is that it is close akin to lying; which
impression was made the deeper by
the report Of another person who
said that he had seen the man buy
that identical fish Thus one sees
into what forbidden paths Dragging
leads one.

Town That Owns Itself.

Fairhope, small town on Mobile
bay, is the only chartered city in
America which owns all its land It
was founded IA years ago by three or
four Iowans, who decided to establish
a city without taxes. The land is
owned by the corporation, which is
the community, and is leased to indi-
viduals for SO years. The lessee is re-
CURED to pay annual rent on his land.
If he wants city telephone, 1t costs
him $50 cash to have it installed and
thereafter his telephone is free The
rents from the land pay all city ex-
penses and maintain the telephone
besides Besides the free telephone
system there are three free schools, a
free library, which does not bear the
name of Carnegie, a free water sys-
tenn and public dock. Fifteen hun.
dred towns and villages of Germany
are supported by the rentals of city.
owned property and the inhabitants
pay no taxes.

a M9c9rOnt-

"The Macaroni" were exquisities or
fops, who, in England and France, led
the fashions from 1880 to 1885, and
were distinguished by a immense
knot of artificial hair, worn on the top
of their heads. A small cooked hat
which perched ridicuously on their
top knot, satin or brocade coat and
small clothes, fitting tightly to the
body. and silk stockings with ribbon
carriers. composed the costume of
these fashionable gentlemen, who in
variably carried a long walking stick
with tassels attached, and frequently
a bouquet tied to the handle, and en-.
couraged a mincing and affected gait
and manner. There was, during the
war for independence, body of Mary
land soldiers who, on account of their
snowy uniforms, were called "Maca-
Toni."

On Pornoise-

A porpoise can neither play football
nor yell, nor even so much as wave a
flag. He cant smoke a pipe He can
act like a fool. it is true, but he can't
entertain the notion that in so doing
he is bright. He can't cali his father
the pater, nor his mother the mater.
He can't, merely by filing his head
with the east wind, get to imagine
himself simply it. Why, then, do we
continue to speak of schools of por-
pOises Puck.

ROUGH RIDERS
WANTED IT

Washington Jan. 20.-That the ac
ton OF the Republican organization
Of Oklahoma In postponing the crea.
lion Of an internal revenue district OF
Oklahoma alone was a wise one. from
an Organization standpoint. was dem
onstrated when il leaked out that S.
Z. Adams, OF Atoka. Okla. is an appli-
cant for the job Of collector when the
district is created.
1t was stated In these dispatches
that the Oklahoma Republicans got a
tip that if the Oklahoma district Is
created before the fourth OF March an
other Rough Rider might be found
whom Roosevelt would land in the
hearth thus created. Adams appears
to be that man. He is Spanish war
veteran, has been holding down a job
in Panama, but wants TO come back
and get on the government pay roll in
the United States.
Adams Is a rank outsider so far as
the organization in Oklshoma IS con-
cerned. State Chairman Joe Norris
and Representative MCGUIRE have
Herbert House slated for the collec-
torship when the district is created.
House has also secured the rather re-
luctant Endorsement of National Com
mitteeman Cash Cade for this job,
and If the appointment goes over un-
til Roosevelt is out Of the way he
stands a mighty good chance to land
the job.

THE HARRIS
STARVED OUT
Hair knowledge Attained
By Many InQuiring
Ones

"IH venture to say" declared Geo.
A. shlves. during a recent discussion
at the Business Mems Club In Cincin-
natl, the hair that many a man hasn't
got died OF starvation"
That is quite an idea Many people
who are firm believers in the doctrine
that cleanliness is next 10 Godliness,
live up 10 their belief from their feet
TO their foreheads. They pay little or
no attention to the hair. Undoubied-
ly. neglect OF that important duty is
responsible for the common run Of
dandruff which makes men bald and
thins out women's hair. Dr. Mott. a
Southern scientist. had bis own pc
culiar ideas about the care of the hair.
To him the matter Of keeping the
head clean Is OF as great importance
as washing the face. Many head Of
hair Is simply a repository for germs
and dust In giving DR.. Motifs Hair
Tonic to the country, the Hessig-E -Ellls
Drug company of Memphis, Tenn,
made ten-strike. This Hair Tonic
is designed to promote the growth and
length OF hair. Il is a hair food and
while It won't grow hair from dead
cells, it will effectually drive out the
agencies Of disease and enable one TO
keep all the hair that is left The use
Of Dr. Motifs Hair Tonic is of as much
importance to the health of hair as
that Of good soap or tooth powder
Is to a perfect toilet

Folk on Democracy.

Former Governor Folk of Missouri
was partly on the right road when he
said in a recent address that the demo-
cratic party had too many issues and
that we have been shooting in the
air in the hope of striking something"
That democracy has been so divided
as to lack the force to make it effec-
tive is unquestionably the fact. 1t is
not so much that the party has too
many issues, but that 1t is composed
OF so many elements, each with an
issue of it's W which is not endorsed
by the others, which in a large measure
renders 1t impotent to attract recruits.
II is not that democracy has too many
real issues, but hat IL has and always
has had too many false issues which
the logic of events has wrecked as time
passed. 1t is continually appealing to
the people with the apology on its lips
Il was wrong the last time | know,
but this remedy is all right" The
political doctor with d graveyard
record of mistakes does not inspire
confidence and an apology for always
having been wrong Ices o attract
the following of thoughtful men.
The great weakness of the demo-
cratic party is that its espousal of
visionary and impracticable theories
from campaign to campaign has col
lected about its standard numerous
groups of enthusiasts who are agreed
upon nothing except that the repub-
licans are wrong and that they them
selves want the Offices. How anyone
can expect to fuse such a mass into a
compact body behind real issues. ever
the Missouri governor has not at
tempted to explain.

P~rs,ident,, Plan, for ths South.


Mr.. Taft has made It plain in his
address at Charlotte. n. c.. what his
ideas are concerning the political flu
ture OF the south and also the object
he had in view in appointing a demo-
crat to the federal bench in that state.
He emphasizes the individuality of a
political cleavage based on a sentiment
which IL obsolete rather than on pres
ent day interests. While avoiding a
partisan discussion OF advocacy OF the
principles of his own party, he has
pointed out in the first place the
benefit to be derived from a healthy
and vigorous minority actuated by
principle. A healthy division OF this
kind, however. could never be obtained
along the lines of class, race or tradi-
ton which revolve wholly around the
past.
Coupled with a deserved tribute to
the ideals which had bound together
the southern people in their hour OF
adversely, the president urges that the
industrial development has made a
new south, with new issues and new
points Of political view similar to those
along which party lines are drawn in
the north. and that If the same ideals
divided parties in both sections there
would disappear the last excuse for
sectionalism, which in times of stress
might rise up to divide the people and
work great injury to all.
Mr.. Taft takes occasion, too, in dis
cussing his appointment of a demo-
crat as federal Judge, to point out that
he Is not the first republican president
to do so, that it is not a political move
nor an admission there are no southern
republicans capable of filling such
places, but simply in furtherance of a
policy of UNFOLDING the standard of the
federal judiciary by naming, regard
less of politics, the best material called
to his attention. He further explains
that the action must not be interpreted
as meaning that southern republicans
are TO be ignored or that he proposes
to use public Offices as a bait for demo-
cratic votes.
