RICHARD WATSON GLIDER.

The unexpected death OF Richard
Watson Glider is more than a per-
sonal bereavement to the thousands
in every part Of the land, and in other
lands, to whom he was known affec-
tionateiy either in person or-even
better-by the revealing personality
Of his poetry and other writings. To
his associates Of this magazine, who
from the daily contact of many years
knew his rare spirit. his uncompro-
missing scrupulousness, his high stand
ards Of personal influence. his large
horizons Of sympathy, his instinct and
habit Of usefulness, it must always
seem that the noble qualities Of the
real man can never be made known
to the world as they are known to us.
To the readers of The Century, in
which for the nearly forty years of tts
existence he has been formative and
determinative force and for the last
twenty-eight its responsible and de-
voted editor-in-chief, his death must
be like the loss of friendly voice
from the fireside,-a voice Of hope ana
Of warning. of optimistic faith and Of
brave encouragement toward wor69
ends.-The Century. ~

A Milwaukee couple want to be d.
yorced-the husband, because his wife
insisted on his accompanying her on
shopping tours; the wife, because her
husband wore neckties that did not
match her gowns, says the Baltimore
American. With the most sacred of
human relations made such a travesty
as these absurdly trivial complaints
suggest, 1t is no wonder that the gov
ernment is collecting divorce statistics
which are alarming the thinking men
and women of the country for the sta.
bility of society.

May Paste Million Posters.

Artists, billposters. printers, paper
manufacturers and tuberculosis fight
ers are all united in a gigantic crusade
against tuberculosis which is about to
be started under the direction of the
National Association for the Study
and Prevention of tuberculosis. In
addition to the gifts of free space on
billboards and free printing of posters
made by the Associated Billposters
and Distributors of America and the
Poster Printers Association, several
hundred paper manufacturers have
given paper for the posters to the
value of several thousand dollars, and
artists from all over the United States
are contributing sketches for posters,
free of charge. The local, state and
national antituberculosis associations
will see that the posters are placed
in cities and towns where they are
most needed.
The posters are nine feet long and
seven feet wide and will be printed in
several colors. If sufficient paper is
procured a million will be pasted up.
The value of these various contribu-
tions would reach fully $2,000,000 If
paid for at commercial rates.

LOSSES FROM THE BOIL WEEvIL.

The bulletin of the department of
agriculture on the Mexican boil weevil
sheds very little new light on the sub
iect. No remedy has''been found for
that most voracious and destructive
insect; and the department merely re-
iterates its recommendation with re-
gard to the burning of the cotton
stalks and the work during the winter
looking to keep down the pest-points
upon which the southern farmers have
been well instructed of late, and which
they are thoroughly carrying out. The
only gratifying part of the bulletin is
The estimate that the amount of dam
age caused by the weevil is $25,000000.
This is the figure given two and three
years ago. when the weevil was re-
stricted to Texas. The damage had
grown from year to year up to that
time. and 1t was expected that 1t would
continue to grow as the weevil spread
eastward, until 1t rose to heavy pro-
portion of the crop. In spite of this
spread of the pest, the total loss re-
mains the same, amounting to not
more than four per cent. of the crop.
OF course. some localities-and Louisi-
ana most OF all-has suffered more,
but the cotton crop as whole Is not
materially reduced by the weevil, and
the amount it returns to the southern
farmers will be very little cut down.

SKIN ROUGH AS BARK.
Daby Boy Had Intense Itching Hun,or
Scratched Till Blood Ran.
Found q Cure In cutIcura.

"Our son, two years old, was afflicted
with . rash. After he suffered with
the trouble several weeks l took him
to the doctor but 1t 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 q
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.

quickly and cure any cough that is
durable is made by mixing two ounces
of Glycerine, half-ounce of Virgin

ounces of pure Whisky. You can get
these in any good drug store and cas-

Secretary Wilson, who has been
touring New York state investigating
the condition and causes of aban-
doned farms, says that the trouble is
with the farming and not with the
farms. The soil is not exhausted.
Profitable crops are possible. Scien-
tific knowledge and work are the
essentials. Scientific agriculture in
the so-called manufacturing states
where proximity to urban centers
with their markets adds to the value
OF any crop deserves to be recognized
as one of the most important phases
OF the conservation of resources and
OF relief from the present burden

OF the beef trust, the dairy product
trust, the poultry and egg trust is not
the legislator, but the small farmer
who is an independent and cannot be
bought up.
