CALLING DOWN THE BoAsTER
Good LittIe Story Told by William
Dean HoweIIs as Rebuke to
Spread-Eagleism.

1T was William Dean Howells,"
said Chicago editor, who first re-
buked us Americans for our spread
eagleism, for our foolish boasting. l
see that Mr.. Howells has just joined
mems society for the promotion Of
woman suffrage. Trust him to be in
the forefront always.
Il once heard Mr.. Howells deliver a
fourth of July Grafton in Maine. The
orator preceding him had boasted a
good deal. Mr.. Howells showed that
some of the mans boasts were even
impious.
Gle said that these spread-eagle
boosters deserved the rebuke that the
little child administered to the cack-
ling hen that had just laid an egg.
The child. angered by the hens con-
tinuous cawk-cawk-cawk, cawk-cawk-
cawk-cawk. shook his little finger at
her and said:
"'You fink you're smart. But bod
| made dat egg. You touldn't help but

TO GGET IN TROUBLE

TROOPS ARE MAKING TROUBLE
Revolution Threatens Over Moor War

Madrid, Spain (Via Frontier)
Spain is on the verge of civil strife
today and King Alfonso is posting
troops known to be loyal at all stra-
tegic points to put down the revolu-
ton in it's incipiency.
Although the government is rigidly
suppressing all the details of the war
In Morocco, it has become generally
known that the Moors have won de-
cided advantage over the Spanish
troops there, and that several hundred
of Alfonso's troops have fallen in the
various battles around Melilla and
that several Of the Spanish guns have
been captured in hand-to-hand fights
The outbreaks have passed the riot
ing stage and have assumed the char
actertof a countrywide revolution.
King Alfonso, once the beloved of
the nation is being bitterly denounced
in open speeches all over the country.
Numerous arrests of political agita-

filled with political prisoners who are
openly agitating against the govern

The gravity of the situation is be.

CALLS BIBLE BAD FOR YOUNG
Professor Votaw of Chicago ~" Also
Says Book Is Too Old.

Chicago, Illinois. Professor Clyde
Weber Votaw, of the divinity school
of the University of Chicago said:
"The Holy Bible is not a fit subject
for the children of today to study"
He called the story of the creation
a myth. He tabooed the catechism,
and he said the day of judgment is
coming when the people of the world
will have to take their chance be-
tween old religion and modern ethics.
"The Bible is not connected with
twentieth century life said the pro.
fessor, and we should not be first
century people"
"We should make our own Chris
tianity for our own age" was another
of his statements.

SURPRISED HIM
Doctors Test of Food.

A doctor in Kansas experim ented
with his boy in test Of food and
gives the particulars. He says:
II naturally watch the effect of diff
ferent foods on patients. My own lit
tie son, lad of four, had been ill
with pneumonia and during his conva-
lescence did not seem to care for any
kim of food.
Il knew something of Grape-Nuts
and its rather fascinating flavor, and
particularly of its nourishing and
nerve-building powers, so l started the
boy on Grape-Nuts and found from
the first dish that he liked it.
His mother gave it to him steadily
and he began to improve at once. In
less than a month he had gained
about eight pounds and soon became
SO well and strong we had no further
anxiety about him.
An old patient Of mine, 73 years
old, came down with serious stomach
trouble and before : was called had
got SO weak he could eat almost moth
ing, and was in serious condition.
He had tried almost every kind of
food for the sick without avail.
Il Immediately put him on Grape
Nuts with good, rich milk and just a
little pinch of sugar. He exclaimed
when came next day Why doctor /
never ate anything so good or that
made me feel SO much stronger
Il am pleased to say that he got
well on Grape Nuts, but he had to
stick to it for two or three weeks,
then he began to branch ont little
with rice or an egg or two. He got
entirely well in spite of his almost
hopeless condition. He, gained %
pounds in two months which at his
lage is remarkable.

TAFT WILL CARE
FOR SETH BULLOCK
COWBOY FRIEND OF ROOSEVELT
WILL STILL BE MARSHAL
OF SOUTH DAKOTA.
Man Who Stopped Rough House al

gotten by New President.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-Captain
Seth Bullock, the old cowboy friend
of Roosevelt, is to be taken care of ny
President Taft and will be reappo1nted
United States marshal of South Da-
kota at the expiration of his present
term. President Taft made this defl-
mite promise to Representative Martin
Of South Dakota, and told the latter
that he would appoint Seth not only
because he is a close friend of my pre-
decessor, but because 1 have warm
regard for him myself"
Seth called at the White House the
day after the Inauguration and was
greeted like an old chum by the new
president" said Representative Mar
tim HE told Seth that he wanted him
to know that ne would always be well
come at the White House."
Roosevelt and Bullock rode the
range together on the Little Missouri
back in the SOS and struck up friend
ship then that has endured with the
years. Bullock was the first sheriff Of
Deadwood, and personally attended to
the cleaning up of probably the worst
bunch of bad men that ever pestered
a new community. 1t is said that he
has five or six notches on the barrel
of his Colts, but it cannot be proven
by him, for he is the most modest of
men.
When Roosevelt made his western
campaign trip for the presidency
in 1896, Seth went Witn him through
the mining districts. Trouble was
promised at Butte, among other places,
and, before the meeting at the Mon
tana metropolis, Seth wandered into
the hall where the tough element had
gathered with the intention of rough
housing Teddy
Il would like to announce before this
meeting is called to ORDER" cried Seth,
mounting the stage and leisurely pull
ing out two huge revOlvers which he
laid upon the speakers table, that
Colonel Roosevelt is going to address
you in few minutes. 1 also wish to
announce that the first man that starts
anything gets bullet through his
head"
ut was very orderly meeting" said
Col. Roosevelt, describing the incident
afterwards. Il was never listened to
with more attention in my life"
