SWEET OLD coRNcoB PIPES
Real Smoker Says Missouri Nicer
schaums Beat Them AIl-Are
Made by Millions.

Jefferson City, Mo.-Seven factories
operating in Missouri turned out last
year 27,733,26O corncob pipes, known
everywhere as Missouri meerschaums,
according to figures compiled by
Archie Edmondston of the state labor
bureau: If the five-lnch stems in those
pipes were laid end to end they would
reach from New York to San Fran
cisco and lap back several hundred
miles.
Enough pipes were manufactured to
give every man. woman and child in
Missouri seven or eight pipes each.
The value OF those pipes last year was
approximately $4S45O The 301 men
and So women making them We're paid
in wages $137,327. and the farmers re-
ceived s199,9S1 for the cobs.
Franklin county leads the world in
the manufacture Of Missouri meer
schaums and the pipes manufactured
at Washington and Union in that
county are sold the world over The
other points where factories are To-
Gated are: Owensville in Gasconade.
Bowling Green in Pike, and Holstein
in Warren county. Farmers in the
counties where the factories are To-
Gated grow a corn which has an ex-
ceedingly large cob. Each cob will
make two pipes.

FINEST ESTATE is SETTLED
Heirs of Ex.PugiIist Will Have rs
Cents to Divide Among Them
Smallest on Record.

New York.-Probably the smallest
estate ever administered in New
York has finally been settled after
litigation covering several weeks; and
the public administrator has turned
over to the care of the city chamber
lain 25 cents, to be held subject to
the claims of the heirs of William
Portland, an ex-pugilist.
To reach this settlement land de-
velopment company by which Port
land was employed, seeking to get
possession of the shanty in which he
had lived, was compelled to petition
the surrogate to appoint an admins.
traitor to take charge of the dead
mans effects. The administrator
found trunk, clothing and a brass
ring, in which was set a large piece
Of cut glass. When offered for sale
an Italian junkman, attracted by the
ring, bought the entire estate for rs
cents.

SERVANT GIRL LEFT FORTUNE.
Rude Document Written on Wrapping
Paper by Indiana Miser to Be
Contested.

Evansville, Ind.-Seeklng an estate
rem, an eccentric miser, who was
found dying in his hovel near here
the first of this year. Mrs. Matte Han
nun of Vincennes, Ind. filed in the
probate court here the other day a
will scrawled upon piece of coarse
wrapping paper. and which she al.
leges was written by McMurren over
twenty years ago.
McMurren, in the role of tramp.
she declares. appeared at the home
where she was employed near Vim
cennes. She gave him some bread
and coffee. but this angered her en-
ployer and he drove McMurren from
the place. He went to the home of
Mrs. Emma Grant and, asking for pa
per, wrote the following will, says
Mrs. Hannun, who was then Miss
Matte Drain:
Il do this day will to Matte Drain,
a poor servant girl who gave me a
good bite to eat when I was weak
from hunger and near ready to drop,
and the old man she was working for
was cursing her and ordering her out
of his yard, do will that all the prop
erty and all the money that have at
death shall be hers"
Mrs. Grant and another witness to
the crude document are dead. Nc
Murren's relatives will contest the al
legged will.

1.-The Growth Of the Cities
and the Increased Cost
of Living.
Bye ". GREGORY,
Author Of Home Course In Live Stock
Farming. Making Money on the
Farm. Home Course In Mod
ern Agriculture. Etc.
Copyright. 1870 by American Press
Association,

In building materials only Is per cent
That luxurious living has had much
to do with the increased prices cannot
he denied That It is wholly resnonsi.
Bile is far from the truth.
| If we are to seek the real cause Of
this crisis that confrOnts our country
we must 20 back to the old cause of
supply and demand, coupled with other
factors that have grown ont of this.
The period from 1870 to 1895 was the
period of development of the middle
west. the bread basket of the world,
Here were lands of unparalleled fer
tility that had merely to be scratched
to give forth their bountiful supplies.
The result was that the markets of the
world were flooded with foodstuffs.
BY 1896 the middle west was pretty
well settled. The bloom Of its virgin
fertility had been removed. Soon the
days of using corn for fuel and wheat
to feed the hogs were past. Prices of
farm products began to rise. If there
had been no other factor entering In
they would soon have reached nor
NAL level, and the readjustment would
have come with little trouble. Unf0r-
tunately the tide of population toward
the cities had become too strong to be
turned in day.
From 1880 to 1900 the percentage Of
farmers decreased from 44.3 to 1855,
DECREASE Of 81 per cent. During the
same period the percentage of persons
engaged in manufacturing increased
from 21.8 to 24.3. This increase of 25
per cent Is no more than normal and
may be accounted for by the increase
in the standard of living and the con-
sequent demand for manufactured ar
ticles. The increase In professional
lines during this time was eight-tenths
of per cent. while the number of per-
sons engaged in domestic and personal
service decreased one-tenth Of per
cent.
The great increase came in the num-
Der of persons engaged In trade and
transportation. an increase of 5.5 per
cent. OF the 1863 per cent of the work
ing people engaged in trade and trans
-portation in 1900 only nine-tenths were
engaged in transportation proper. The
others. 1874 per cent OF all the people
Of the United States who wcrk. were
simply middlemen. Complete figures
since 1900 are not available. but the
cityward trend has increased rather
than diminished.
Here is the true explanation Of the
high cost Of living. There are more
than one-thtrd as many men engaged
in distributing food as there are In
producing 1t. The consumers dollar
Is worn thin before 1t gets to the pro-
Queer. The 100000 men who farm
must supply food to the 100000 peo-
pie who are working in the factories.

Protection and Wages.

the Minneapolis Tribune Qnd. Rep.)
July Is. Republic an conventions and
speakers who mean what they say
about tariff reduction should change
their phraseology. They should de-
mand reduction of duties on the neces-
saries of life in the interests of the
consumer without reducing the purch-
asing power of American wages. The
number of dollars man gets is moth
ing; what he can buy for it is every
thing. To give him four dollars instead
of three and make him pay pay two
prices for food and clothing, tools and
conveniences, is to reduce his wages.
To reduce his wages one-third and cut
the cost of living in two is to raise
them. American workmen have been
fooled bv this trick for generations.
They only began to see the dazzling
light of the great fortunes piled up
under protection. These represent the
difference between the raise of wages
and that of prices.

SNAKE TWISTS OWN HEAD OFF
Connecticut Rather Tricked Into
Death by Crafty Black Serpent
{ Unique Fight.

Winsted, Conn.-Fred A. Schermer-
horn, a guide and trapper, living on
Toms mountain, who piloted party
headed by Rev. Franklin D. Elmer Of
Winsted over the Tacomic mountains,
tells of witnessing remarkable fight
between a rattler and blacksnake.
The RATHER was coiled and the black
reptile sped around the poisonous
snake in circle steadily increasing
its speed. The rattlesnake turned its
head so fast to keep track of it's
enemy that 1t broke it's neck and the
blacksnake emerged triumphant from
the battle, which in reality was ring
around-a-rosy Marathon

Those Pies of Bovhood.

How delicious were the pies of boy
hood No pies now ever taste SO good.
What's changed? the pies? No. It's
you. You've lost the strong, healthy
stomach, the vigorous liver, the active
kidneys, the regular bowels of boy
hood. Your digestion is poor and you
blame the food. What's needed? A
complete toning up by Electric Bitters
of all organs of digestion-St Stomach,
Liver, Kidneys, Bowels-Try them.
They'll restore your boyhood appetite
and appreciation of food and fairly
saturate your body with new health,
strength and vigor. SOC at P. A.
