Couldn't Tell Her.

A Paducah family had an old col
ored nanny, Aunt Cindy, who was a
splendid cook. One of the young
ladies of the house asked her for the
recipe for a certain exceptionally
good cake she had made: missy.

Aunt Cindy.
"Why not?" asked the young
misses.
"well, missy" replied Auntie. ut

ring with their names. One rode be-

there was no talk of flying over the

the wireless telegraph. Edison was a

Radium, the X-ray, typewriting ma

now about typhoid and consumption

Look at the mortality rate, especially
among babies. There were othe-
questions to be debated in the fifties
and sixties; for example. whether is
was right or not to make men work
without paying them; in Russia and
the United States that subject was
all the talk. One would hardly rec

New Lincoln Penny and Its Designer.

Victor d. Bremen, of ia East
street, New York, is
the designer of the Lincoln head
which appears on the new cent just
issued by he government from the
Philadelphia mint. Although Rus
sian by birth, Mr. Bremen has found
his opportunity in this country while
yet a young man, and he resents any
designation other than that of a
loyal American.
With the approach of the centen-
NAL of Lincoln's birth, Mr.. Bren-
ner, long a student of the anti-slav-'
cry movement, and an admirer OF its
ultimate exponent. began looking
for a model on which to exercise his
plastict arc. His search was reward
ed in a photograph which he found
in possession of Prof Charles Eliot
Norton. His first study was ex-
pressed in a plaque, his second in a
medal and his third, which pleased
him best, in the design which ap-
pears on the coin. Eachastudy ideal
lied somewhat the preceding one,
while preserving the essentials of
strength and simple earnestness
which characterized Lincoln's coun-
tenance.

coin" Mr.. Bremen said, you will
see that / have made him smiling. /

as the goodness of his life. My in

called at the home and the leader
rang for admittance. Mr.. Newlywed
denied them his presence at the club
and refusing to come down. The in
furiated fellowship below produced
a rope and entering the house he
was bound hand and foot and carried
away, no heed being paid to the
pleadings of the bride to desist. The
groom was kept out until a late hour
and then permitted to return to his
lady love.

Pistol Totln' Here and Elsewhere

Baltimore is also trying to lessen the number of its shooting scraps by lessening the number of concealed weapons. The News of that city urges the passage of a law requiring per init for the carrying of a deadly weapon, and compelling all dealers to call for the production of a license be- fore selling deadly weapons. All who have no license should on conviction be thrust into jail for a round term.
 The plan of the News is excellent if it could be thoroughly enforced, and if the judges and juries would show no leniency These ifs are large-sized, and after all the best way perhaps is to adopt the Alabama plan. In this state all are free to carry concealed weapons 24 or more inches long. Any weapons of less length are unlawful and the bearer of pistol of less size is, on detection and conviction, subject to heavy punishment. The 24-inch plan isanot patented and other states are left free to adopt and apply it.

Greater Birmilgham

It rests with Governor Conner to say whether Alabama shall have under the new census a city exceeding 100000 people. Jones valley contains the requisite population all bound together by natures hills, by trolley lines, by a common water supply and by trunk sewers. This population should for health and sanitary reasons be in cluded in one municipality. For the credit of the state it should be. For the good of all concerned it should be.
 It rests with Governor Conner to de- eide the question, for the legislature in special session could not find good reason for refusing to bring Jones val ley into one. municipality. Governor Conner can make or break Birming- hams reputation as city. He can put it in the class that Memphis, Nash vile, Atlanta and Richmond will be in after 1910, or he can keep it in the Chattanooga-Knoxvi class. Which will he do?

Senator CulberSOn'S Merger Inquiry

The special committee of the Senate judiciary committee appointed at the instance of Senator Culberson has taken a great deal of testimony and it has confessedly found nothing wrong in the Tennessee merger-nothing wrong in the fullest sense of the word nothing that called for fresideat Roosevelt's opposition when an an nouncement of the intended merger was made to him.
 The result surprises no one at all conversant with the facts of the case. It is surprising that Senator Culberson, man of acute legal mind and man full of lgeneral information, did not know the nature of the case from the outset. No one planes Senator Gull person for attempting to discredit the administra tion, for the Texas Senator is first of all a democrat, but all do blame him for resorting to line of at tack that was foredoomed to failure.
 It is said that the investigation is to be dropped. It Is not probable that report will be made to the Senate, for a report would simply provoke long discussion, and the session is nearing it's end. Senator Culberson will not be apt to favor the making of report, for that report would necessarily sus- tain the President in the policy he adopted and it would also establish the wisdom and legality and timely pro- priety of the merger in the pinch of the October panic.

ON PuRRINe.

By Robertson Nicoll
 In my opinion the great charm of cats has never been properly noticed. It is their purring. What can be more restful than to listen to the loud purring of cat? What can be more instructive? There you see pessimistic theories, re- buked. Here Is one creature in the world healthy and thoroughly content. You know that there are hundreds of thousands like him, and begin to suspect, If you are in the dumps, that you are disquieting yourself in vain, or at least, that things will go better yet. I am per suaded that it is this pleasing habit that has made cats so popular l wish 1t were more common in superior beings. What misery Is made in human life by the detestable habit of grumbling!
 No wonder that the early books of the Bible should denounce so bitterly the murmuring of the Israelites. Murmuring just means grumblng. The evil that cursed the first ages of the world curses the last. One should at least be able to refrain from giving himself tongue. If he does, he makes his trouble far worse, and he loads the life of other people, who are just able to go on and no more.
 On the other hand, there are plenty of people who do not grumble, but who never purr. Purring is not bragging. Purring is an expression of gratitude and content. There are many hard working folks, wives and mothers especially, who keep toiling all the time and never get a word of thanks. How different their lives would be if their husbands would purr when they come home! And why should wives not purr also, when it is possible to do so? Perhaps if they purred at a kind word they would hear more such words.
