Des Moines.
Frothing at the mouths, fifteen wild
eyed steers have terrorized southeast
Des Moines. Twelve employees Of the
Agar Packing Company and several
policemen were on the trail of the herd
and shot them as fast as found. Twen-
ty of the steers broke loose from the
eight men in charge on the way from
the packing house to the stock yards.
They scattered in every direction all
| over southeast Des Moines. AT noon
| five had been recovered, but the others
were still at large, and the police re-
ceived frantic calls from the mothers
in that vicinity whose children had
narrowly escaped from beneath the

CIRCULATION
rAE INrLAMMARLE ELK.

No doubt an effort is being made
to make less innammable the picture
films IN use for the production Of the
moving pictures which are now in
such popular use in all parts Of the
country.
Last week IN Omaha a messenger
boy carrying a package OF Aims ac-
cldentally ran against a man carrying
e lighted cigar In his hand. The Incl
dent occurred In the Office Of a film
mandatory and in a moment other
films nearby and valued at s150.000
were blazing. Before the flames were
subdued the building had pretty well
burned causing an additional loss of
$50 900 more, or a 100000 blaze in all.
This shows that the film manufac-
tory is a dangerous place for careless
ness or sparks, and it also warrants
the precautions which the fire mar
Hhals require in order TO secure safety
10 the patrons Of these shows.
The fact that Norwich has never
had an accident in the operation of
these pictures shows that they have
bean carefully operated; and The Bull
letin knows that Chief Engineer Stan
ton is requiring the regulations for
safety to be lived up TO by all oper-
ating concerns here.
But we must all admit that the in
wention OF less iniammabe films is
one Of the desirable achievements Of
the present day.

BEREA COLLEBE.

Eastern Connecticut people inter
ested in the welfare OF Berea college
viii be glad to know that it has raised
$345,000 of the readjustment fund, to
meet the requirements of the law Of
Kentucky which provides that the col
cred pupils shalls be educated in fu-
ture in a separate institution, and a
strenuous effort is being made to have
the remainder completed by February
18th. the Tooth anniversary of the
birth Of Lincoln.
The autagonism to Mixed schools
has brought this splendid institution
to sad straits. as is shown by the
declaration of the treasurer, who says:
For daily bread we require $4,000
this year. only $4,000 of which has
been contributed already. We have al
ready been crowded into the horrible
pit of borrowing. Necessary expenses
greatest in winter.
we do not ask help for our noun
tain clients because Of their need, but
because of their promise Of large
value to our country.
IF you wish to do a good deed, to
honor the memory Of Lincoln, please
take some share in this enterprise
now"
Abraham Lincoln was born near
Hodginsville, KY. forty miles south of
Louisville, February u. 1909 On the
hundredth anniversary President
Roosevelt and a most distinguished
company will make q pilgrimage to
the spot. If Berea college can com
plete it's adjustment fund by that
Tina and splecf tbe site for tba new
school which is to care. for the colored
Students the president will stop his
train and plant a tree on the campus
of the new institute-"An act most
consonant with the spirit in which
this visit to Kentucky is made"
1t is to be hoped that the fund will
be completed and that a Roosevelt tree
will be planted there to signalize the
success of the endeavor of the friends
of the college.

That is about the only distinc.
ton between Nature and Kodol.
Kodol can digest food without Ma
lures assistance. Nature, how
ever, frequently needs Kodol very
badly. In chronic dyspepsia-for
instance.
If you could visit the establish
ment of the manufacturers Of Ko-
dol-you could see all the kinds Of
food fully and completely digested,
in natural manner, in the labora-
tory test-tubes-you would be en-
tirely satisfied that Kodol digests
food wherever IT finds it. And such
is the case.
Kodol is not advertised as a
"cure" for anything. No extrava-
giant claims Of any kind are made
for it. Yet we knew positively
what Kodol would accomplish-in
any form of indigestion or dyspep-
sia-before the first spoonful en-
tered a human stomach.
Kodol is merely intended to rem
der Nature proper aid, in the prop
er way, at the proper time. Yet
that aid is sufficient to quickly rec
tify any digestive trouble. The d.
gestive organs cannot help but be
restored to healthy activity, when
Kodol is used.

EVERYTHING A COMMUNITY.

This is an age when through organ
ICED effort many communities are be-
ing overtaxed for alleged benevolent
OF class purposes. A writer to a Bos-
ton papers, registering a protest. says:
Allow me to cali attention to a
nuisance which aflicts certain parts Of
the city For many years past house
holders have found left at their houses
subscription tickets to balls or enter
tainmentsf to be given for the police
mems and fremen's benevolent socie-
tias- The price is generally fixed at
Sc each. Some bought them cheerfullv.
some took them grudgingly. and some
took them because, although disap-
proving of them, they feared to incur
odium. Since then the matter has
spread to other organizations. and
lately we hove had the express drivers,
the coachmen, and finally the chore
men. Soon we shall hear from the
Rshmen, the city Transfers, and why
rot finally the hearse drivers? After
them we shall need no morel"
The writer further says: Some of
the cards bear no references. give no
names and no indications that the
money will go into responsible or COM
petent hands. In fact, many Of them
might be spurious"
This is a growing evil everywhere,
and, as the writer suggests, many Of
he applications may be spurious.

A Novel Luncheon.

A unique and interesting form of en-
tertainment is the Chinese luncheon.
Ii is most practical in the big cities,
where a Chinese cook may be engaged.
Then a real Chinese menu may be car
ried out, strange as to names and ap-
pearances, but delightful none the
less. There should be dish of soy,
which is a part Of every genuine Chi
nese meal. Birds nest soup, of course;
chicken with the bones removed. tea,
queer candied fruits, chop suey, made
Of fish nuts and bamboo sprouts, and
possibly roast duck, covered with
chrysanthemum petals.
The decorations are more pictur-
esQue, if less astonishing, than the
food. Plum and cherry blossoms
should be used if possible; chrysan-
themums and red and yellow Chinese
flags, and on the table tiny Chinese
lilies For lights there should be the
shaded Chinese lanters. The favors
might be little fans, or any pretty
thing picked up in a Chinese shop. At
the plates should be a pair of Chinese
chopsticks, tiny teacups. a China ladle
for the birds nest soup and "a soft
paper napkin. which is changed with
each course. If possible, there should
be a Chinese waiter as well as cook.
as he adds much to the reality of the
occasion.

CHARGES AGAINST ROOSEVELT.

agent of prevarication and Islander.

4 If Postmaster General Meyer is
right, Senator Tillman is wrong in
charging President Roosevelt with set
ting detectives on his trail and with
having in his possession since July the
facts which he has only just published.
Mr.. Meyer says that the case was not
brought to President Roosevelts at
tention until December IS, 1908, and
that the proofs did not reach him I'M
til January 4, 1909. The postofice
inspectors did all the investigating.
and secret service agents were in no
way connected with the case.

ton does not increase the confidence

such an experience as this he should

An Ever Ready GarsIe.

A gargle that has quickly banished
many a bad sore throat is made by
diss0lving a teaspoonful of powdered
borax in a tumbler of water. This
can be used either hot or cold, but
should not be swallowed. As boraX is
kept in most households, this remedy is
at hand when it may take time to get
others from the druggist or doctor.
If the borax gargle is not liked, strong
salt water is an excellent substitute.
The good results are increased by
snuffing the salt water up through the
nostrils and back through the throat.
A teaspoonful of salt to glass of wa
ter is strong enough, especially if the
nose and throat are sensitive. Hhis
salt water gargle is used several times
day by one trained nurse who has
had many diphtheria patients without
succumbing to the disease.

THE RlG.1T OF PRIVATE PROP
ERTY,

In an address at Augusta this week
President elect Taft called attention
to what he believed to be the su-
preme test of our present civilization
and as he regarded it as specially
lawyers problem it is Of more than
ordinary interest to the lawyers of this
part of the country.
Mr.. Taft asserted that the supreme
test Of our present civilization was to
come in the present and the two sue
ceeding decades IN the form Of sur
vival or destruction Of the right Of
private property. He regarded this
right as essential to civilization as
the right OF liberty, and said the tests
of the lawyers and courts would come
on this question. We have reached
the time when we must recognize GER
tain limitations" Mr.. Taft continued,
which previous conditions did not
require assertion Of in the form of
statutory law, upon the use Of private
property wherever it is represented in
combinations Of capital. We must
recognize today that those combina-
tons may be hurtful. I believe this
70 be a lawyers question and a prob
lem that must be worked out, not
through contentious, not through mere
rhetoric, or eloquence but by the
careful consideration Of the Limitation
as 1t shall be settled in the statute
and interpreted by the courts. This
problem IS now on and therefore I
state 1t with considerable solemnity
and seriousness. We have got to work
It out more or less by experiment. but
in that working out we have got to
depend upon the clear headed at the
bar, on the bench and in the legisla-
ture, to reach a solution. And I have
no doubt 1t win be done"
It will take the ablest minds in the
country and honest and earnest collab-
GRAFTON to solve the problem and solve
it right.
