Horses, Teeth Gold Filled.

There are valuable race horses In
England which have teeth filled with
gold. 1t is too risky to have such
horses suffer, and go off their feed
when racing time approaches.

Change the Date of Inauguration.

The weather conditions under which President Taft was inaugu- rated presented the strongest kind of an argument in favor of chang ing the date of presidential inaug- urations. It added another long list to the disagreeable days that have provided a gloomy sitting tor this most impressive national event It was another forcihle illustration of what may be expected for any future inauguration.
 This should be the greatest of our national show days. 1t would be if the weather conditions were favorable. Usually. wever. what would otherwise be a mag niiicient pagent is turned into q bedraggled spectacle of rainsoaked and shivering marchers while the impressiveness of the actual cere- mong itself is considrably lessened by reason of cold. raw winds. rain and snow, as was the case last week. Why not change all thisY Why go on longer suffering discom- fort when 1t Is unnecessary? The latter part of April or the first of May should make a satisfactory date. The chances would at least be in favor of pleasant weather.
 On several occasions half-hearted attempts have been made to shift the ceremonies to latter date. but they have died a-horning, This most recent experience should set. tie the matter, and congress will act wisely if it takes action on the question while the dlsagreeable re- membranes is still fresth in the minds of all.

Ignorance Aids Appetite.


Merrill f. Gates, secretary of the
board of Indian commissioners, was
describing the splendid work that his
board is doing to wipe out the tuber-
culosis scourge which at one time
threatened to make the American In.
dian extinct.
"But the Indian" said Mr., Gates,
''needs to be educated in sanitation.
He is shockingly ignorant there. In
fact, he is as ignorant as an old farm
er used to know in Warsaw.
"A friend dropped in on this old
farmer as he was frying bit of bacon.
Grand bacon, that, said the friend,
smiling affably.
Grand bacon! Well, l guess 1t Is
grand bacon. said the old man, turn.
ing the slices in the pan. And it's

HE KNEW HOW TO PICK THEM.
Tammany Mans Double-6arteled Com.
pliment Did Away with Thought
OF Hostllities.

The orchestra was playing loudly in
one of the restaurants in Denver, Col.
during the Democratic national con-
vention, and the diners were talking
loudly so they might hear and be
heard. At one table sat a beautiful
woman and her escort and at the next
table number of Tammany mon.
Suddenly the orchestra stopped,
bling! and a Tammany mans voice
rang out: by George, that's good
looking woman! I'd like to meet her"
The man at the next table. who was
with the lady came over, tapped the
Tammany man on the shoulder and
said frigidly: "Sir. that lady is my
wife,
shake" said the Tammany man
Il am glad to meet you. You certainly
are a good picker"
And hostilities were averted.-Sa..

An Unconscious Tribute.

When his business had yielded such
profits that he began to take life more
easily and think of retiring, Mr.. Hold
en- endeavored to throw some good
things in the way of younger firm.
How about letting Hobbs G. Rawson
have your next consignment of canned
novelties?' he suggested to one of the
manufacturers. "They are hard-work-
ing gentlemanly young fellows"
That's just the trouble" said the
manufacturer, with decided shake of
his head. I'm no gentleman myself,
and don't propose to mix up nor have
any business dealin's with gentlemen.

as I've always done, and you cap do as
you like with 'em."-Youth's Com.

SKIN ROUGH AS BARK.
Baby Boy Had Intense Itching Humor
Scratched Till Blood Ran.
Found a Cure In Cuticura.

Our son, two years old, was afflicted
with rash. After he suffered with
the trouble several weeks / took him
to the doctor but it got worse. The
rash ran together and made large
blisters. The little fellow didn't want
to do anything but scratch and we had
to wrap his hands up to keep him
from tearing the flesh open till the
blood would run. The itching was in
tense. The skin on his back became
hard and rough like the bark of a
tree. He suffered intensely for about
three months. But found remedy
In Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment. The result was almost mag
ical That was more than two years
ago and there has not been the slight
est symptom of it since he was cured.

Predatory Instincts.

The inherited predatory tendency Of
men to seize upon the fruits of other
peoples labor is still very strong, and
while we have nothing more to fear
from kings, we may yet have trouble
enough from commercial monopolies
and favored industries, marching to
the polls their hordes of bribed retain
ers. Well, indeed, has it been said
eternal vigilance is the price of liber.
ty. God never meant that in this fair
but treacherous world in which he has
placed us we should earn salvation
without steadfast labor.-John Fiske.

Another Explanation.

Recently, while the Helpful Hints
editor was absent, for week or two,
his work was handled by the puzzle
editor, and a number of errors crept
into the column. Many of them were
that the error was serious, and we
hasten to adjust it. Mrs. Sophia
Brown of East Wind, Ind, asked for a
recipe for picking green tomatoes. In
the same mail was a query from Miss
Lizzie Magruder of Joy Center, Ia,
who said she was troubled with aching
eyes, and wanted us to suggest some
thing that would give relief. The
puzzle editor, whose mind was occu-
pied probably with the construction of
a double inverted pyramid on the
word "parallelopipedon," answered the
two inquiries. and got the replies
mixed somewhat.
He advised Miss Magruder to wash
all the dirt off of them, then scald them
quickly in boiling water. After that
put them overnight in strong brine
Next morning lift them out one by
one, dry with a clean towel, cut into
narrow slices, put into deep jar, and
pour over them hot spiced vinegar.
Seal them up carefully and they will
be ready for use in month Mrs.
Brown, who wanted to pickle the to.
matoes was urged to battle them in
luke warm water, and then with a
glass dropper drop two drops of Dor.
acic acid solution into each one, tie a
cold towel over them and protect from
the light until they showed no more
symptoms of pain.
1t is needless to state that the error
was unintentional. although both Mrs
Brown and Miss Magruder have written
rather tartly to us. Miss Magrudet
asks us If we do not think we ought to
sign the pledge before answering any
more queries, and Mrs, Brown accuses
us of having caused her to spoil two
bushels of choice tomatoes AS we
said before, we can only express ouI
regret and promise to avoid such con.
fusion in the future.

MAKING SUNSHINE
II Is Often Found in Pure Food.

The improper selection of food
drives many healthy person into the
depths of despafring illness. Indeed,
much sickness comes from wrong food
and just so surely as that is the case
right food will make the sun shine

all hope. We were at Old Orchard
Me-, at that time and my wife saw
Grape-Nuts in grocery there. She
