Just like anybody will finch when
you nudge a sore spot on them, the
Hartford Republican takes exceptions
to what we have said about the prev
alent and wide disaffection in the
Republican party OF Ohio county. But
nothing it says disproves our asser-
lions. 1t is an open secret that there
are many lifelong Republicans In
this county who will not support their
party's ticket at the coming election.
Somehow they don't like 1t nor the
way it was brought about. This dis
approval is so general that everybody
knows 1t, and anything the Repub-
lican may say will not change these
we'll known facts.

The Calhoon Star, answering oul
little query Of two weeks ago, says:
We take pleasure in inform
ing our highly esteemed con-
temporary, The Hartford Her
aid, that that boiler caught
in Green river by Messrs.
Clint Fits and Doc Thomp-
son during the recent high
water, was coffee boiler.
Well, now, that was all we wanted
to know, and we are glad indeed to
know it. From the language used by
the Star, we had supposed that it was
an iron boiler of large proportions,
but the fact that it was just little
tin concern perhaps explains why the
item should have gotten any notice
at all.

Usually the women folks know very
little about politics and pay no atten-
ton to the matter. The Payne tar
if bill, however, has attracted their
attention. What this measure does
to women's "wearables" is a-plenty,
and will bring them to a realiza-
ton of what the tariff means as be-
tween the Government and the indi-
Vidual.

While in conversation with an opti-
clan recently, he remarked that it
is surprising how many people come
to his shop who cannot read common

always necessary to use a placard on
which is printed, in plain words, a
short sentence. He said it was not
unusual to see people who could not
read these words, no matter at what
distance they were placed. All of
which adds proof to the woeful il

Betrothal bracelets SuppLantng
The Customary Engagement Ring

Are engagement rings going out Of
fashion?
A few years ago such a question
would have sounded absurd but today
the ring has a serious rival in the be
trothal bracelet" which seems 10 be
becoming more and more popular
The betrothal bracelet had its origin in
a very pretty idea 1t was first made in
the form of plain gold chain fastened
by tiny paddock. and this paddock was
made with a small spring. which had
to be pressed when the owner wished
to remove the chain.
Il occurred TO some fond lover to have
this spring filed away, so that when once
the paddock had been closed # could
never again be opened, but would hold
the bracelet on the arm Of the wearer
forever
The lock. which could never DO I'M
done was TO be a symbol OF cOnstancy.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1909-09-20

That was the origin OF the betrothal
bracelet. and other lovers. with quick
appreciation of such a pretty senti-
ment, have asked their respective fan
Gees TO wear them instead Of the conven-
tiona1 ring
In the newest patterns jewelers. are
making the padlOcks in the form Of
hearts similar TO those sometimes worn
as charms. The locking mechanism IS,
Of course. quite out of reach, SO that it
is absolutely impossible to open the
clasp when once il has been closed.
Made thus. il is an emblem or unchang-
ing affection.
Another idea is 10 have the heart
shaped paddock fitted with n minute
key. which the fance may wear on his
watChchain after he has placed the
bracelet upon the arm Of his LADY, but
this form is not likely 20 become so
popular as the other, because the real
charm Of the betrothaI bracelet seems
to be lost IL there is a possibility Of re-
moving Il.
