SHAW INTENDS VISIT AMERICA
Noted Irish Playwright to Speak in
SociaIism's Behalf from the Lee
ture Platform.

New York.-It is now fully believed
that George Bernard Shaw, the Irish
playwright, will visit America before
the year is out. A brief telegram was
received from j. Fades How, head OF
the International Association of the
Unemployed, saying that Mr.. Shaw
was surely coming to America. Mr..
How. who Is known as the Million
aire Hobo" went to London especial
ly to interest Mr.. Shaw in the cause
of the unemployed and to obtain from
him, If possible, promise to visit
this country in their behalf.
Charles Frohman, the theatrical
manager, has just returned from Eu-
rope and announces that Shaw is COM
ing, but Mr.. Frohman only mentions
the authors interest in the coming
production of several of his plays.
The plan TO have. Shaw visit
America has included a lecture tour
of wide range. 1t has been planned
to have him speak in the principal
cities of the country, devoting several
weeks to the larger cities and extend
ing the campaign through to the Pa
cific coast. Heretofore all efforts to
enlist Mr.. Shaw in moral or social
istic crusade in this country have
failed.

Uncle Ashdod Clute enjoyed pretty
fair health until he received the pink
covered patent medicine booklet from
the city last March, and then, all at
once, he realized that he was one OF
the sickest men in Betzville. He saw
that he had IS of the 10 deadly dis
eases, and he had hopes that he could
gather up the other two symptoms be-
fore fall and make a clean record of
it. He got all ready to die as soon
as the other two symptoms appeared,
for he is such a tough old codger that
he knew no less than 10 deadly dis
eases would have any effect on him,
and he would probably be dead now
if he hadn't started to read a serial
story in the inside of the Betzville
Weekly News.
AS soon as he got interested in the
serial story he wanted to live until
he saw how it ended, and he grew
anxious about his death, and wrote a
letter to fortune teller in the city
and asked when he was going to die.
He told all his symptoms and how
many deadly diseases he had, and his
case must have looked sort of hope
less to the fortune teller, for he got
letter back saying Uncle Ashdod's
last breath would mingle with the at
mosphere of Betzville during the neXt
80 days. And then, as sort of balm
the fortune teller said that If his las
breath didn't mingle in the next 81
days, Uncle Ashdod was probably Sc
tough he would live forever.
Any ordinary man would have los
hope upon receiving such prediction
but Uncle Ashdod is not an ordinar,
man. He saw Immediately that HI

This is in direct opposition to the
wishes of the English monarch. The
English king wants an alliance of the

man, but the dukes heart has always

He got so he could make the coupling
in one-tenth of a second by the watch.
And every night the last thing he did
was to go up to the attic and tighten
up all the lids and listen to see If any
of them were leaking.
The third day he broke bottle, and
that was the only worry he really had.
For all he knew that was the bottle
that had his last breath in 1t, but he
couldn't be sure until the month was
up, for he was scheduled to die at no
particular time during the month, and
it might be the very last day.
Along during the last week he had
a bad fright. We saw he was running
short of bottles, and that they would
them, so he began to take shorter
breaths. He would hold breath until
his eyes Topped out on his cheeks and
the perspiration stood on the end OF
his nose and his face was dark pur
pie, and he took such short breaths
that he was able to get two in a bot
tie, but even that was no use. He
did run out of bottles.

LAVENDER HARVEST BE GOOD.
English Town Has Distilled Flowers
and Sent Extract All Over
World for Many Years.

London.-One of the minor har-
vests that promises well is that of the
lavender fields. Some flourishlng
crops are to be seen in the Hltchln
neighborhood.
Comparatively few know of this
quaint Hertfordshire town as an i'm
portant lavender growing center, yet
it has grown the sweet old herb
(Which the Romans called lavandula
when they used it to scent their
baths), has distilled the flowers, and
sent their extract into all parts OF
the world for more than century.
The Hitchin district had less rain
and more sunshine than the London
area recently, and consequently the
long, trim rows of lavender plants in
their dusky green look strong and
healthy They are beginning to show
their flower buds, and there is every
likelihood of an abundant yield at cut
ting time.
Mr.. Perks, the modern representa-
tive of the firm of Perks & Llewellyn,
who in 1890 were the pioneers here OF
lavender farming and distilling, said
that even this industry must be num-
bered among those which are suffer-
ing from foreign competition. 1t is al
most entirely owing to the importation
| of cheap French oil of lavender that
the area under the crop. at least IN
this neighborhood, is gradually de-
creasing," he said.
"The reason is that Hitchin has al
ways prided itself on producing the
finest extract of lavender flowers OBJ
tainable, and that, in view of the for
eign competition, is an expensive
standard to maintain.
Nothing but the heads of bloom go
into the still. The more stalk used
the ranker is the oil produced. There
is wonderful difference in quality
between the English and French oil.
"At cutting time people come in
from miles around to inhale the
sweetness of the fields, and when the
distilling begins the fragrance OF Law
ender is borne on the wind two
miles or more from the town. The
flowers are put into the still with the
fresh bloom of their maturity on them
and from six pounds of such flowers
about half an ounce of oil Is ex
tracted."

Iowa Leads With the Best State Fair.
The fact that Iowa stands at the
top among the states is shown in no
way better than in the fact that 1T
is regarded as the very BEST fair state
of all Information secured recently
by Secretary Simpson, of the Depart
ment of Agriculture, indicates that IN
all that goes to make great state
fair Iowa always makes fine show
ing. The acreage which Iowa owns
for fair purposes is larger than that
in any of the states. The value of inn
provements is on a par with Indiana,
Michigan, New York and similar
states. The receipts compare favor
ably with those of any state save
where much business is drawn from
large cities. But far more important
is the fact that the great exhibitors
of the country recognize that the at
tendance at the Iowa Fair is more
representative of the farming and in,
