George w. Egan, the defeated
hndidate for governor has made
e announcement that he will
npport the winning candidate,
essey. In this he displayed
pod political judgement but not
pod ethics. If the Vessey ad-
Illustration was as corrupt and

pre- the primaries he cannot con-
Pstently support it now and still
bake the voters believe that he

Pr Egan and admired his game
less but he should have kept the
announcement to himself il he ex-

fe now believe that George was
sincere as he tried to make US

One Of the dangerous enemies Of
man Is the hookworm, says a physi.
clan. For years 1t has been supposed
that the inertness and general thrift.
lessness of the poorer people of the
South especially were due to climate
or their natural laziness, and nothing
could be done for them. But certain
inauisitive scientists and physicians
have discovered that what ails them
Il Is estimated that there are 1000, 900
Of hookworm sufferers in the Southern
S~tates-is the hookworm.
This Necator Americanus-Ameri.
can m~urderer-is a worm about three.
quarters OF an inch long and like a
thread in circumference. 1t gets into
the body from water, from raw fruit
and vegetables and from the earth
when walked on in bare feet, as most
of the Southern poor children and
many adults 60 nine months In the
year. The worm fastens It's fangs into
the mucous membrane Of the intes'
tines and sucks the blood from its vic
tins. It moves about from place to
place and will live for years. Usually
from a dozen to a hundred infect an
individual, but the numbers vary
often going into the hundreds and
thousands, tho limit, as far as re
corded. being 1900 to one person.
Once these people get the hookworms
they begin to grow lazy and careless
apparently. and insist that they are
sick and need medicine. Thousands OF
bottles Of patent medicines for all
kinds of diseases have been taken by
them, and doctors have treated them
for various ailments, but to no avail
The hookworm was fastened upon
their vitals and nobody knew 1t.
Now, thanks to Investigation, the
trouble has been discovered and at the
same time a remedy has been found

A former American ambassador to
Russia tells of a clever mot by a Rus
sian oficial.
1t appears that a French journalist
travelling In the Muscovite empire
complained bitterly of an extraordi
nary and suspicious delay In the for
warding Of his mail.
To his polite but Arm request for re
dress. the writer received a courteous
communication from an Official OF the
Russian postofice department. There
IN the official said:
This delay is. of course, de%plorable;
but It must be considered that, with

Rocking Chair Symbolic Of American
womnn's Nervous Energy.
According to Marc Debral. the
French writer. there is no such thing
in American society as an ingenue. A
,lebutante will appear to be shy--as
lhyness is always sweetly attractive
but her efforts are not always a sue.
cess as they are so palpably assumed.
THE typical wealthy young American
girl" writes NJ. Debral. "is very wide
awake as to the practical side of life
and Is even more audacious than her
married sister; and yet the latter has
complete liberty of action. The organ
ization of her household simplifies do.
nestle cares for the mistress Of the
house. Servants are hard to get, to be
sure, but, on the other hand, their
work is made easy for them by all
sorts of modern contrivances. Ice
boxes are filled with canned foods to
be used in case of unexpected de,
mands. What with steam heat, cleo
trio light and elevators, the internal
administration of a house is regulated
almost by machinery.
"The American woman feels no OBJ
legation to watch over her home; her
enormous fortune makes It unneces.
sary from her point of view. She Is
not a natural housekeeper and has no
love for pursuits that oblige her to
keep still, like delicate needlework
and fine emhroideries. She prefers
sports and active amusements that
! take her out of doors.
"She may sing about her Home,
Sweet Home but she Is quite willing
to get away from 1t.
always very busy and having a lit
tie or nothing to do, the woman OF
wealth in America rushes about as
though she had a certain task to finish
ct a certain time; meals are gulped
down hurriedly, and orders given In
wild haste, without there being the
least reason for 1t. An incident that
came under my w observation ]
thought characteristic: A young
woman came into a tea room on Fifth
avenue and ordered a cup OF choco
late. After hardly touching her lips
to the cup, she jumped up, paid for It
and said: It's too hot; can't wait
I haven't the time Once more on
the sidewalk she calculated %nervously:
What shall I do now? Then got into
her carriage and said to the coach
man: Drive quickly. please and on
his asking for an address, she said: ]
don't know; straight ahead. but drive
fast
ITO go fast. straight ahead. to move
about in the open, laugh, fidget. chat
ter, to rush here and there without
any object but to feel ones self alive
and use up ones superabundant en-
ergy: nothing could be more symbolic
of all this than the American woman's
beloved rocking chair. Even In re
pose she swings to and fro, and must
! have movement even when she is
motionless."

But they forget that very often the
modern c~onveniences only mean things
made to meet modern conveniences.
An artisan can go to a scientific steam
laundry and have his linen collar re-
starched; IL you call that convenience.
But II Gurth the Swineherd had been
made to wear a starched collar he
would have fallen on his knees and
implored his lord to lift the burden

Anne's reign could have the luxury

nomination of Rhoady Kenehan
for state treasurer and his address
was a classic in rhetoric.

And then came the fight over
the superintendent of schools. Ka-
therine NJ. Cook, the present in
rumbent Of the office, Helen Ring
Robinson, Mary G. c. Bradford
and Rosetta Pulford. were all
placed in nomination. For the
most part the women in the CON
vention made the nominating
speeches and in as much as they
had been in bitter fight for
over two weeks some of the
speeches bordercd very close to
personality, but Chairman Adams
kept them in hand to the ex-
tent that no real trouble occurred
and as soon as possible he ordered
the roll call. And then it was all
oTer with the other three. Mrs.
took was by far the favorite and
with the announcement of the
vote of Larimer county, which
WASH t half way through the list,
she had enough votes to nomi-
nate her.
Chairman Adams always dip
lomat displayed the greatest
amount of tact at this point. 1t
had been his custom to have the
defeated candidate escort the win
ner to the platform for their
speeches of acceptance. Adams
knew that if he named the other
three to escort Mrs. Cook to the
platform, the .Jeffries- johnson
contest wouldn t he in it and he
gracefully named the women who
had placed Mrs Cook in nomina-
tion and everybody roared.
