 The second alarm was call tC East Sixth avenue and Missouri street, where burning grass on a vacant lot was causing uneasiness among the residents.

ADJUSTMENTS.
H><%/&/>1<>1>><

Many an extravagant wife might profit by the valuable lesson that is taught in Porter Emerson Browns domestic drama "The Spendthrlft, which was offered to a small put appreciative audience last night at the Elks Theater. No better stage moral has ever been shown here ana possibly no more evenly Dalanceo and capable company in recent wears. The play is beautifully staged and the costumes worn by MISS Mitchell and Miss Rittenhouse were idolized by the fashionables. The play should have been more llberally patranized by married people for j is for them that it was constructed and not the young ladies or maidens in their teens.
 "The Spendthrift" is immoral. It is suggestive and unfit for review by inexperienced girls, many or whonl vere in the audience last night. Many of its lines are most sugges- tive and brought blushes to the cheeks of many wives who ac- companied their husbands to tho theater last evening. The Glrl from Rector's" about which so much noise was made here and elsewhere is tame beside it. Tho fact that the producers boast that during It's four months engagement at the Hudson Theater in New York nearly half a million dollars worth of automobiles brought their owners there to witness "The Spendthrift." is convlnclns argument that the American people prefer the ssnsat]0nss anu fa'' drama.

 The Spendthrift,' tells the story of woman whose only ambition is the enjoyment of the luxurious incl dentals of triumphant social career. Anxious to give her every happiness possible, her husband Is to earn the money which she so lightly spends. When the play opens the couple, Richard and Frances Ward. are seen in the new home which they have recently occupied sur- rounded by luXuries indicative of plutocratic income. Ward has for several years been mak ng q losing fight. Al the height of his powers ar har to earn about three-quarters of what it cost him to live. Now deeply in debt, he begins to see the financial rocks for which his ship is headed, and realizes that a policy of severe retrenchment must be followed to avert catastrophe.
 While not directly opposing him, his wife refusing to understand the seriousness of the failure which men, aces them, and shrinking from the contemptuoue comment of her we'll to-do-frlends, makes no change in her mode of life.
 The catastrophe occurs. Ward Is practically ruined. His downfall is made more miserable by his tardv realization of the shallowness of his Wife-the emphasized fact that her butterfly career has always meant more to her than the making of q home. An unsat ,sfied desire on his part adds to his despondency. Cyni- cally he reviews the past, and of his meditat,ons is born brave ambition to begin once more at the bottom of the ladder, and building anew, build differently His W fe is finally con vlnced of their desperate straits, but her cons iteration of it is marked by small sympathy for him, but much pity for herself.
 Mrs. Ward learns that $20,000 will be suffics ent to postpone immediate disaster, and still refusing to believe that their condition is such that tenn porary assistance will be of little use sets about to obtain t.
 While Ward is everting himself to make the impending blow as light as
 possible, his wife borrows money accepting it from a man of her ac- qua 'ntance whose record as a philan- thropist is considerable, but whose fame as rogue is great. This money she offers to her husband, accompan- jed by lie as to the source whence she received it. Ward learns the identity of his indirect benefactor Torn with suspicion and dread, he faces the man in the presence of his wife. Eventually he is convinced of his wife's innocence. The money is returned. The circumstances in which the transaction is involved are such that Mrs. Ward is taught a per manent lesson. She comes to know herself.
 The lesson is followed by her transformation into real woman. Healthy instincts of ser ousness,

Deceased was 70 years of age, and
was one of the first settlers of of this

land few miles southeast of this city
nearly half century ago. He left

State Fair Board Planned.

Columbia, Mo, Dec. lS.-A plan to
regenerate the st. Louis Fair and to
create new fields ofgreater importance
than anything of the kind which has
heretofore been held in Missouri, is
Endorsed by the State Board of Agri-
culture.
TIC. Wilson, secretary of the board,
is this week sending letters to every
county fair association in Missouri,
asking them to appoint delegates to
the Farmers Week meetings to be
held at the agricultural college. of the
University Of Missouri, January 10 TO
10, at which time a bill embodying
the chief features of the proposed
State board Of fairs and fair manage
ment will be discussed.
A company composed Of st. Louis
men has secured an option on loo
acres of land near Kinloch, to hold
good until afterthe Legislature meets,
and in the event Of favorable action a
fair will be launched which will be
the equal of anything of similar nature
in the country.
The object of a State board of fairs
is to do away with gambling and un-
desirable features of fairs, to prevent
conflict in dates of county fairs, and
to promote the educational and amuse-
ment features of the fair system in
Missouri
Every exhibitor of stock will be re-
quired under the new law to submit
with his exhibit a statement of the
breeding and pedigree of his stock OF
of poultry or other product.
The reason for this plan is that
under the present system the farmer
reads that a certain animal won q
prize, but his information stops there
He is unable to learn how the ANNA
was bred or how the ear of prize corr

For a State Road Fund.

Every other progressive county in
the state should join with Boone county
in asking the legislature to provide a
state road fund from which the county
road funds could be superintendent.
Such state funds of course, would be
available only on conditions that
would insure the proper enterprise on
the part of the county to which the
funds would be appropriated and
those conditions would be within the
powers of any county in the state.
The state would help, but it would
help all alike-that is, all who took
up road building in the right way and
to the required extent. This kind OF
cooperation is necessary to the great
est possibilities of road making. The
state can well afford to give its prac-
teal encouragement to the road
builder.-Kansas City Times.

A SINCERE RECOMMENDATION.
When to Plant Fruit Trees.

Jacob Faith, the hortiCulturist, gives
the following advise regarding the
planting and care of fruit trees, in
the FL Dorado Sun-and he knows
what he is talking about:
The best time to plant apple, peach,
cherryand pear trees and grape vines,
is in the late fall after the leaves have
been killed by the frost, and during
winter. After setting the trees out
bank dirt around them and level it
down in early spring. By doing this,
they will get the winter and early
spring rains, and thus make vigor-
Gus growth the first year
Cultivate your trees well until Aug
ust. Late cultivation will cause a late
cultivation will cause a late growth
and much sap, and that will render
them more liable to winter kill. Cow
peas are the best crop to plant in the
Young orchard. They, will enrich
the ground and will make no shade
to injure the trees.
If apple trees do not bear when
from four to five years old, trim
them in spring as soon as the leaves
are full grown. Trimming them at
that season of the year, checks their
growth and causes fruit buds to form
for the next years crop.
The best time to trim or prune all
fruit trees is during the winter when
the wood is not frozen and before the
sap starts; but am sorry to say that
much pruning is done in the spring
when the sap is thin. 1t then runs
from the cut, blackens the bark and
poisons it as far as it runs.
When limbs two inches or over in
diameter are trimmed off, the wounds
should be painted to keep it from
cracking and taking water

Cures that last are cures that tell.
To thoroughly know the virtues of
medicine you must investigate the
cures and see if they prove pcrma-
nent. Doans Kidney Pills stand this
test and plenty of proof exists right
here in Butler. People who testified
years ago to relief from backache,
kidney and urinary disorders, now
declare that relief was permanent and

1910 is Banner Trade Year.

Washington, D. c., Dec. S.-The
calendar year 1910 is going to be the
banner one for the worlds interna-
tional trade, according to the Bureau
of Statistics.
Statistics from practically every
country show that both imports and
exports are considerably greater than
in 1909. The bureau has received
reports from twenty-seven countries
which cover from six to ten months
of the calendar year 1910.
In all OF them the figures of imports
show marked increase in the month
ly averages as compared with the
corresponding period of 1909. The
exports also are considerably larger,
except in Argentina and Bulgaria.
Considering the countries for which
figures are at hand, the monthly i'm
ports and exports show an increase
of about 8 per cent as compared with
the correspondingmonth of last year,
and it is believed the worlds inter-
national commerce for 1910 probably
will show exports valued at between
$4,000, 100000 and SIS, 100000,
while imports are expected to aggre-
gate more than SIC, 000,00O,0O0.
