as the little frontier city could mus.
ter With so lovely and ambitious a
wife, people predicted that Houston's
star would rise to unequaled height.
Then something happened. No one
knows what. But shortly after the
wedding the whole state was scandal
lied to learn that bride and groom had
separated. Not as the result of
petty lovers quarrel that could be
readily patched up-but that they had
parted forever. Neither Houston nor
his wife would tell what had caused
the sudden break in their supposedly
happy relationship. But while the
bride returned to her fathers house,
Houston resigned his governorship,
gave up his hard won honors and gold
en- prospects, and left Tennessee. His
friends argued, pleaded and stormed
in vain. He was set on throwing away
his future and would not tell even his
most intimate friends why he did So
The secret of Houstons separation
| from his wife remained a mystery
and remains so to this day. That
the cause was terribly serious may be
judged by the fact
oeoo'"ee a" that he not only
| '"u'e'' abandoned S
career, but turned his back on civiliza-
ton as we'll. Journeying to Arkansas,
he Joined the Cherokee Indians, don
ming paint and blanket, living among
the savages for years as member of
their tribe and refusing to go back
to his own people or to regard himself
as anything but an Indian.
Yet to Houstons parting from his
wife the United States owes the an
nexation of Texas. For in time Hous-
ton left the Indians and plunged into
the warfare the American settlers
were waging to wrest Texas from
Mexico. He freed Texas and made a
republic, being chosen as it's first
president. Then he arranged annexa-
ton of the new republic to the United
States, and was elected governor of
the state of Texas. Meantime he had
married again, and his second welded
life is said to have been very happy.
He fought bitterly against the seces-
sion of his state when the civil war
began, and. for his fierce loyalty to the
union was deposed from Office.
When the secession of Texas was
announced, and his own son entered
the confederate army, Houston said to
his wife: "My heart is broken!" Two
years later he died; his last gasping
word being the name of the beloved
state he had built up and so wisely
governed. and which had at the las!
deposed him.

The love story of Napoleon III. and
Eugene de Montijo has been called
by some Frenchmen "the romance of
an adventurer and an adventures"
For though the latter term is too
harsh TO apply Tin its worst sense) to
Eugene, yet Napoleon III. merited the
title Of adventurer-and far worse.
When Napoleon the Great (Napo.
leon ~ was crushed and the old Bour-
bon monarchy once more swayed
France, there was more or less
strong party that still clamored for
the restoration of the Bonapartes. Ma
poleon's next of kin, in succession,
was his nephew, Louis Napoleon,
known later as Napoleon ILL.,, and nick
named by his foes as Napoleon, the
Little" He was sensationalist, a
mountebank, charlatan, man whose
word could never be relied on. Time
and time again, as a man, he made
ridiculOusly useless efforts to per-
suade France to accept him as it's
ruler. He was laughed at as a failure
and twice was thrown into jail. Later
he escaped to England, where he was
at one time SO poor that he was glad
to accept a job as special policeman.
He crossed to America, taught school
in New Jersey
~ -"pe'o' and got into trou-
town, N. j., for shooting farm
ser's little pig, which he mistook
for a rabbit. At last he was allowed
to return to France. Elected to the
national assembly he wriggled and
schemed his way. to the presidency Of
the French republic. Then, violating
his oath as president and causing his
guards to commit wholesale slaughtey
he had himself declared emperor, in
| 1852, under the title of Napoleon III
His empire was built upon tissue OF
lies and was soaked in the blood OF
innocent people. It could not endure
Napoleon ILL.,, when he looked about
for wife, quickly learned that other
European rulers had no faith in him
or in his empires permanency. Fol
he could find no princess who would
consent to marry him. 1t was about
this time that he fell completely under
7 Eugenie's influence.
Eugene was the daughter of an i'm
poverished Spanish nobleman and {
Scotchwoman. She grew to be one o.
the most beautiful of women. Whe1
Louis became emperor he met
Eugene much more often thar
before and speedily found him

Kansas Takes
1000 Overland Cars

Our agents in Kansas have ordered for
this season 1000 Overland automobiles.
Nebraska takes 75o-Iowa 1,0o0-Texas
$500. Thus has the Overland-after one
years's experience-captured the farming
states.
It has captured the cities, too. New
York City takes 1000 Overlands this year.
Boston takes 5o0-San Francisco 500
Washington 5o0-Philadelphia $50.
Our agents have contracted for 10000
overlands-for s24ooo,ooo worth of Over
lands-to supply the demand for this
year. That's a larger sale than any 9TH
err car commands.
Yet, two years ago few had ever heard
of an Overland. This sensational success
is due to the creation of a remarkable
car.

TINY BABY'S PlTIFUL CASE

'"Our baby when two months old
was suffering with terrible eczema
from head to foot, all over her body.
The baby looked just like skinned
rabbit. We were unable to put clothes
on her. At first it seemed to be few
mattered pimples. They would break
the skin and peel off leaving the un-
derneath skin red as though 1t were
scalds. Then a few more pimples
would appear and spread all over the
body, leaving the baby all raw without
skin from head to foot. On top of her
head there appeared a heavy scab q
quarter of an inch thick. It was aw-
full to see so small baby look as she
did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid
to put his hands to the child We
tried several doctors remedies but all
failed. . 5it
Then we decided to try Cuticura.
BY using the Cuticura Ointment we
softened the scab and it came off. In
der this, where the real matter. was,
by washing with the Cuticura Soap
and applying the Cuticura Ointment,
new skin soon appeared. We also
gave baby four drops Of the Cuticura
-Resolvent three, times daily. After
three days you could see the baby
gaining little skin which would peel
off and heal underneath. Now the
baby is four months old. She is fine
picture of a fat little baby and all is

cura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Oint'
ment and one bottle of Cuticura Re-
solvent. If people would know what
Cuticura is there would be few suffer

At court she was snubbed right and

endure his courtiers' insults no longer
and that she was going to leave Paris
forever. This move brought Napoleon
to terms. He asked her to marry him.
Eugene, well-trained, referred him to
her mother for consent. This consent,
naturally, was easy to obtain; and Ma
poleon informed his ministry Of his
approaching marriage. In disgust his
advisors resigned. But, by specious
arguments, he won the nation over to
his views and in January, 1853, made
Eugene his wife and empress of the
French. She was 81 he A. Other
royal families avoided the couple, with
the exception of Queen Victoria, whose

SAM HOUSTON AND ELIZA ALLEN

This is a love story with strange
ending. Many of it's facts are shroud-
ed in mystery and will never be
known. A hundred guesses have been
made in explanation of it's hidden in
eidents. But the full truth remains
brewer in the graves of the man and
woman who enacted the unusual little
drama.
Sam Houston, pioneer and son of a
pioneer, had been intended for a
storekeeper. He had a soul for ad-
venture and loathed mercantile life.
So as a boy he ran away to the In
dams, was adopted by them, and
learned from the tribesmen all the
wondrous art of the wilderness. When
the war of 1912 broke out Houston
was not yet 20. Yet he fought with
a reckless courage that won him many
wounds, not little glory, and the
lifelong affection of Andrew Jackson,
under whom he served. The war over,
he studied law and rose rapidly in po-
litical rank, from district attorney
to congressman, and, within nine
years, to the governorship of Tennes-
see.
A splendid future seemed to stretch
before him. He was the idol of the
southwest. He was the friend of
President Jackson-who never forgot
Ma a friend. He was
wa" young, handsome,
Des''"y' brilliant. The
presidency itself seemed almost with
in his reach. The world was at his
feet ready to do his bidding. Not
public character in America had
He was spoken of as Man of Des-
tiny. Then came the love affair that
changed his whole life.
While he was governor of Tennessee
Houston met Miss Eliza Allen, the
beautiful daughter of .ich Nashville
man. Miss Allen was local social
queen, and was the acknowledged
belle of that part of Tennessee. Hous-
ton simple, direct, honest, was quite
captivated by the girls dazzling charm
and became her devoted adorer. She
had many suitors more polished and
better versed in the ways of the world
than was the sturdy young statesman
soldier who governed the state. Yet
to the surprise of more than one OF
her friends, she listened to Houston's
ardent wooing and soon became en-
gagged to him.
Whether Miss Allen really loved
Houston, or merely saw how splendid
a future seemed to lie before him, is
not known. At any rate she married
him, amid such imposing ceremonies

Danger in Splitting on Sidewalks.
In order to show that splitting on the
sidewalks is dangerous to health, IAN in
vestigation has been made by DR., John
Robertson, medical health officer of
Birmingham, England, which shows
that seven per cent. of the ''spits" col
lected in public places contained con-
sumption germs. On the other hand
the dust collected from the floors Of
the cottages of the Adirondack Cottage
sanitarium has been found to be free
of tuberculosis germs, showing that a

The success of the Overland is mainly
due to it's amazing simplicity. A 10-year-

and backward to reverse. Push another
pedal for high speed. There is nothing
else to do but steer.

THE DIFFERENCE.

When a young woman is over
taken in a wrong the newspapers
are ready at once to publish her
name and give all details, except
regarding theman responsible for
her ruin, that is guarded, or at
least no speculation as to his
identity is engaged in. But this
is not the case when a man is
found out and the woman is not
known.
In a recent case a woman left
a child at the home of the man
responsible for ruin and the ut
most secrecy regarding her iden-
tity was maintained by the man
that received the child and said
he would care for it. The cur
ious made every possible effort
to find out the woman's name
and place of residence and fail
ing in that proceeded to specu-
late and the finger of suspicion
was pointed to more than one,
which is bound to create a feel
ing against her in the commune
ty in which she lives.
The publishing of the name of
the woman that would desert
her baby and leave it in the
hands of the father might be all
right. but when speculation is
in and more than one
woman is compelled to bear the |
blame it is different. We are
that a reputable paper
would do such things and espec-
tally when the man in the case
was honorable enough after his |
fall as a minister to refuse to
divulge her name.
