A Fool Trick.

When a man puts new rafters in
the roof Of his house thinking thereby
to strengthen the foundation, he does
a fool trick. 1t is Just as foolish to
take other remedies when a person
needs Sexine Pills. When you need a
tOnic-builder, there Is no use taking
anything else; for Sexine Pills do it in
half the time, and do it twice as well.

TALL WIRELESS TOWERS.
Government VIII Construct Stations
About 500 Feet High.

Washington. july 14-Instead of
building a gigantic wireless teleEraphv
tower in Washington. higher than the
washington monument. the navy de-
partment has decided to construct four
towers between 400 and 500 feet high
on the highest available point in the
District Of Columbia.
The purpose OF the towers will be
to afford the navy department the host
opportunity possible for communica-
tion with ships far out at sea and with
land stations far removed. Recent tests

with ships in the day time 1.5OO miles

Deaths On American Lines.

The appalling list of deaths
and accidents on American rail
roads during the past year indl-
Gates that something is wrong
somewhere. OF course under any
circumstances railroading is
very dangerous occupation and
therefore the annual toll of death
will always be large.
But what is significant is the
fact that in spite OF the introduce
ton OF safety appliances the list
of both dead and wounded shows
a very large increase over the
previous year. One thing this
indicates is that safety appliances
are of little value if employees
are reckless or careless about
their work. Such contrivances
were never designed to supersede
care and diligence on the part
Of the men. Another fruitful
source of danger is the single lin
of rail on most of the roads.
When all traffic, passenger and
freight, going in opposite direct
ions has to pass over single
track the danger of end on and
other collisions is enormously
increased.
These and other facts point to
the improvements and more strin-
gent measures. that must be ad-
opted if the accidents are to be
kept down to anywhere near the
number on European railroads.
1t may be added that the indis
eliminate walking upon the track
by the public, so prevalent in
this country, is responsible for a
large number of casualties. While
it is prohibited by all roads the
prohibition is not generally en-
forced. In European countries
it is otherwise and that partly
accounts for the much smaller
number of accidents on their lines

The practical man looked upon
Count Tolstoi as dreamer with
exalted but visionary views
while the idealist placed him int
the forefront as a man who with
most laudable purpose has blessed
the world, both by his writings
and the earnest simplicity of his
life. Neither side is altogether
right or wrong. That Tolstoi wa
somewhat impractical in his teach
ing and habits of life cannot be
denied. But it must also be adj
mitted that he took a firm stand
for Righteousness and freedom,
especially on behalf of his down
trodden countrymen. His inter
probation of the Sermon on the
Mount as displayed III his life
may not have been the most rea-
sonable, but there is no question
as to that life being a continuous
protest against existing inequali
ties and injustice.

An Open Letter To The Editor
of the New Time.

Sir; You have been running
in your paper continuously for
some time past, squibs calculated
to cast reflections on me as Clerk
of the Village Board. In your
issue of November 4th you wound
up your article on this cubJect
by saying, we propose to make
things rather warm if action is
not taken at once. The object
of this letter is to ask you not
to delay the warming up act.
There has already been altogether
too much playing to the gallery
in this matter. If you can show
wherein | am unlawfully occupy
ing the position Of Village Clerk,
the sooner the better, and in the
event that you can, | am more
than willing to vacate. However,
you will have to do something
more than keep quoting from
week to week Section 255 of Re-
vised Statutes, which in no man
ner applies to my case.
Yours respectfully,
O. E. Norell.
Village Clerk.

The decision in the Tennessee

Probably there is scarcely per

operations Systematically break
the law, morally if not legally,
but it seems well nigh impossible
as matters are to secure a con
viction. Even in the very rare
instances corporation has been
found guilty the penalty imposed
is usually moderate fine for
which the company generally re-
coups itself from the public.
Technicalities, intricate and mi
mute, are allowed to interfere
with the course of justice in a
way that would not be tolerated
in other countries. Whether or
not many judges are influenced
by their environments, as many
assert, it is clear that their de-
cisions almost invariably favor
corporations. Whether the rem
edy will be found in change
in the judiciary or in more dras-
tic laws, or in the brushing away
of the absurd and involved tech
nicalities is something over which
opinions may differ. But certain
it is that somewhere and some
how a remedy will have to be
found that the interests OF the
people may be conserved.

A Chance to Help

tising is considered by the mer-
chant to be merely a commission
on sales. A fixed percentage Of
the money paid for goods pur-
chased by readers of the news
papers in which the advertise
ments are printed pays for the
advertising.
The fact that merchants have
found newspaper advertising the
most successful and direct means
of exploiting their goods has re-
suited in bringing the advertising
income Of newspapers up to
very large proportion of their
total revenues.
The New Time is interested in
the advertising situation for the
reason that it is owned by over
forty prominent Mountain Home
citizens, every one of whom is
a profitable patron of Mountain
Home merchants. 1t has country
correspondents, office employees
who are paid good wages and all
of whom are also good customers
for the stores. The New Time
also has many hundreds of read
ers, including the most intelligent
and prosperous people of this com
munity and very large portion
OF the buying power of this vii
lage.
The New Time believes that
the proper channel through which
any merchant should reach the
owners, employees and readers
of The New Time is The New
Time itself
We are, therefore, going to
ask our readers and friends, who
believe in the policy of The New
Time, to join us in a campaign
for the purpose of securing bet
ter results to our advertisers. We
will have several very definite sug
gestions to make, but for the pre-
sent two recommendations are
offered
First-Read the advertisements
in The New Time and patronize
the merchants who advertise in
this newspaper.
Second--Let the merchant who
does not advertise in The New
Time know that if he wants your
patronage the way to get it is
to ask for it in the paper which
you take, and not the paper
which you do not take"
| am a subscriber to the New
Time and | am asked to join
them in a CAMPAIGN for the
purpose of increasing their prof
its; and how am | asked to do
it, | am to tell the people with
whom | deal that they must
advertise in the New Time, and
NOT advertise in the papers that
| do not take.
Ye gods! Rockefeller, when at
the height of his power, would
never have dared to publicly pro
claim such CAMPAIGN" He
controlled not only his stockhold-
ers, but, as the New Time wishes
to do, its employees and all those
connected with the corporation.
They were used to relentlessly
crushing competitors. But they
never had the audacity to AID
VERTISE such a CHAMPAIGN.
No, Mr.. Editor of the New Time,
or the forty stockholders who
own it, we will never join you
in this kind of CHAMPAIGN. +"
There are three newspapers in
Mountainhome, each competing
for its share of the county's adj
vertising, and it is better town
than it would be were the New
Time the only one in existence,
which would be the inevitable
result if your CHAMPAIGN"
succeeded.
Yours Very Truly,
Live and Let Live.

hat pulled down over his eyes, and a
shabby black coat turned up around his
throat; and he carried the leather bag
taken from the automobile. The streets
were silent and deserted. yet the detec-

the fact of the long little finger. The
man had left absolutely nothing in his
room at the hotel tthis they verified
with the help of false keys, and had
never returned after the night of the
crime, although he had taken the room
for a month, and paid the rent in adj
vance He had made two visits to this
ROOM, one at about three in the after
noon of the fatal day, when he spent
an hour there, n entered Kittredge's
room, no doubt, for the boots and the
pistol; the other visit he made h am

AS to the assassin's personal appear
ance. there was a startling difference of
opinion between the hotel ~doorkeeper
and the garcon, both of whom saw him
and spoke to him. The one declared he
had light hair and q beard, the other
that he had dark nair and no beard; the
one thought he was a Frenchman, the
was sure he was a foreigner.
Evidently the man was disguised either
coming or going, so this testimony was
practically worthless.
Despite all this. Coquenil was pleased
and confident as he rang the night bell
at the archbishop's house beside the
cathedral, for he had one precious clew,
ho had the indication of this eNtraordt-
nary long little finger, and he did not
believe that in all France there We're

knew there was ono such man, for

Alice went about very little, h had

be easy to get from the sacristian this
information which the girl herself
might withhold. Hence this nocturnal
visit to Notre Dame-~it was of h ut

low growl. and, peering among the
arches of the choir, he saw a lantern
