The ELIXIR OF LONGEVITY,

Samuel Berry. So years old, has left
Waterloo for Montana 70 file on 16o
acres of government land. He is said
to be the oldest man who ever took adj
vantage of the emption laws and
much establishment IS expressed that
one of such advanced age should dare
the disconlforts Of the claim shanty
or care 10 exercise his right of pre-
emption.
But. we are informed that the old
man is still "spry' and in unusually
good health Perhaps the coura ge and
pluck displayed by him and the pos
session of "spryness" explain each
other The old man is alive and hearty
because he hasn't as yet confessed TO
himself that he is walking around to
save funeral expenses" He takes a
lively interest in life and the things
that are doing daily, insists on being
part of today ana keeps on looking for
ward to tomorrow He has the scret
of long life and healthful old age. He
refuses to die while he can see other
people living" And with that sturdy
spirit and view of life and the reasons
for life it will be strange If the old
man doesn't live 10 prove up on his
claim and see the deed in his own name
One of the easiest things is 20 ac-

The mighty have fallen, and there was general political scrunch all along the line Tues day. Republican defeat was easy to predict. Among the fallen, either in person or by proxy, are Beveridge, Teddy, Pinchot and others. The few high brows with their following of insurgents want ed to pull down the republican house. Feeling that few of these men would rule or ruin, the old line republicans concluded to help out and have the grand smash over and done with. The rampant high brows started out to conquer as individuals. Being only individ- uals, they mussed around in a cir cle, winding up in the rear of the position they started from. Some few contemporaries deduce from the upheaval that Teddy will be stronger than ever and a possible presidential candidate. It is just as logical conclusion as the in- sane patients answer. He was asked if he could play a violin and he answered; No, and flute, tpo v

Egotism and individualism are indeed poor basis upon which to build a foundation for a govern ment as great as America yet for a time in the person of Roosevelt it was popular. It has come to a pass where it is neither theory, politics nor policies, but purely Teddy Roosevelt and whatever ideas he may have at the time or may sprout overnight. He is great in his way, but he does not stand for the people or party of the peo- pie. His egotism and enthusiasm to be doing something, from se- verely criticising the supreme court of the United States to quarreling with a policeman; his desire to regulate all morals, politics and affairs of the world has begun to drag him down into the inevitable bogmire of petty quarreler, where nothing is done right unless it has his stamp of approval. His idea of what is right has more weight than the law of the land. The thinking people who want law and order to rule are extremely tired of his fantastic, notional and ofttimes irrational doings. He has been a show for awhile, like other rockets, but has gone beyond reason and the people are tired. Taft has accomplished more actual reforms during the past two years than were during Roosevelt's two terms and it was done without everlast- ing press agents and press bureaus at an enormous cost to the people, advising them mainly what he in- tended doing rather than what was accomplished for their good.

HOME METHODS IN THE FACTORY.

Every one knows what would happen if housewife put down her fruit and jellies by simply pouring them from the kettle into the jars and allowing them to stand with loose covers. Her fru.t would soon ferment and spoil. Cook ing fats are just as liable to spoil, yet most manufacturers of lard and other cooking fats pack their products in tubs or loose-coyered tins, exposed to air, dust and odors.
 Cottolene, however, is packed in paiis of special design, sealed absolutely air tight, so that the makers guarantee Cottolene to remain indefinitely as sweet and as fresh as the day it was made.
