CASE OF MISTAKEN IDENTITY
Congressman Morgan Tells How He
Was Taken for George w.
Peck,

Congressman Charlie Morgan of
Missouri prides himself on being
good mixer" so when, in his last
campaign, man came up to him in
a hotel lobby and slapped him on the
back and said, "Why, hello, old friend"
he reached for his cigar case and
offered to smoke with his future con-
stituent" The smoke from campaign
cigars had grown dense, when, the
conversation becoming bit dull after
an hours duration, Morgan's &C.
quaintance said. Peck, old man,
don't believe we've met each other
since we were in the Yellowstone
country three years ago."
"Peck!" thought Morgan; then
aloud, peek? Did you say Peck?"
For the first time the stranger real
lied that there was mistake and
after looking Morgan square in the
face for a moment, apologized for hav-
ing mistaken the Missourian for
George w. Peck, the author of "Peck's
Bad Boy"

Noisy Nulsances.

Ill-fitting doors and windows rep
resent happy hunting ground for the
disturbing winds. In fact, SO annoying
does the constant rattle of these open
ings become that many determined in
dividuals, wins resolve to admit the
fresh air, choose the lesser of two
evils and close the openings in prefer
ence to sleepless nights. This can be
remedied if a small wedge of wood
be driven in at the side of an open
window; a door can be prevented
from rafting if a pad or strip of thick
felt be nailed on the edge of the door.
The annoyance of creaking drawers
can be eliminated by rubbing common
soap upon the top, sides and bottom of
each.
Creaking hinges on anything should
be we'll oiled, while the grating, irri-
tating noise of a sewing machine can
be overcome in similar manner.
The little noises wear away the pa
thence that is required for other
things. 1t were foolish to dissipate
energy through the channels of irri-
tated nerves when little time will
obyiate the nuisances.

TAFT THE HANDsOMEsT MAN
Sculptor Declares President Has More
Force Than Roosevelt II Crisis
Should Demand

Il believe the president is the hand
soonest man in public life said Rob-
ert l. Aitkin, the sculptor, who has
been in Washington to make a model
for bust of the chief executive fer
the artists fair fund. Mr.. Aitkin is
proud of the wax figure which he has
made and which is the first bust of
President Taft and also the only one
modelled entirely on the presidents
private desk at the White House. The
bust was made while the president
was working. and Mr.. Aitkin invented
a collapsible box which enabled him
to let the model down on any part of
the desk, SO that he might view the
president from any position as he at
tended to his official duties. Mr.
Aitkin says:
Some people will say he is too
heavy. but after you have been with
him few minutes you forget his
weight entirely. He impresses you
merely as big man You are only
aware of the firmness of his face and
the counterbalancing firmness Of his
features.
Il have studied the faces of all the
men who called upon him daily, par
ticularly the cabinet officers, the sena.
tors and representatives and found
none that compared with his.
Mr.. Taft is a very difficult man to
model. 1t Is so easy to burlesque and
caricature him, without producing the
real man. His forehead and eyebrows,
with the little sag above the eyes, is
full of force and determination. He
has the prominent bulges that denote
perception. The tremendous power
latent in these characteristics Is not
hard to express in marble.
THE difficulty comes in showing the
gentleness of his eyes. They are eyes
of great depth and of unusual kind
ness and candor. Yet it was his eyes
that convinced me he had even more
force than Roosevelt, were he ever
called upon to show it at a crisis"
The manner in which the artist did
the modelling is really interesting.
THE president" he says, "sat on one
side of the long desk, with his back
to the light from the four windows,
and his secretary, Mr.. Carpenter, OPP
posite. The light was bad handicap,
and l was forced to work from every
angle of the desk. Often Mr.. Carpen.
ter gave up his seat that | might get
a better view, but in general the work
of the Office went on as if I were not
there.
THE necessity Of adjusting the 20
sition of the wax to the position of the
presidents face, instead of adjusting
the subjects face to the position of
the model, was another handicap, but
this was overcome by simple mech
anism which allowed me to tilt and
slant the model whenever the presi-
dent changed the position of his head.
The result was that I practically had
a continuous sitting for six days while
the president went on with his office
routine, debating, receiving callers
and comforting, without giving much
time to the usual posing"

An Interruption.

Among the primary pupils enrolled
son of a prominent business man of
that city.
One afternoon, at close of school, the
youngster sought out his father in his
Office, to him he said:
Dad, I'm getting tired of school l
think I'll quit
'Why?" asked the astonished par,
ent: what's the matter, Tommy? l
thought you were fond of going to
school"
so am, dad" responded the young
ster, suppressing a yawn, but it
breaks up the day so."-Harper's Mag,

WILEY DISCUSSES SERVANTS
Make Bad Bread and Cause Bad
American Stomachs, Says Gov
eminent Chemist.

DR.. Harvey W. Wiley branched out
few nights ago as an expert on the
servant problem and incidentally
raped American bread and American
bread making as one of the con-
tributing causes Of bad American
stomachs. He spoke before the
Housekeepers Alliance at the resi-
dence Of Mrs. Appleton P. Clark, in
Washington.
''The chief reason for the trouble
experienced in getting good servants"
said Doctor Wiley, lis the fact that
society in this country has not crystal
lied into more or less defined social
strata as in Europe. Here all aspire
to- rise above mental duties, and
there is practically no servant class
to draw from. What does exist is
among the failures and immigrants"
A second factor was the problem of
bread making, Doctor Wiley said, and
still another the adulteration of food
products, including flour and other
materials used in making the staple
of life.
American bread" he continued, "as
it is consumed by the general public
is the worst imaginable thing of it's
kind, practically uncooked and infer
mented when it is presumed to be
ready for consumption. The so-called
bakers bread is made of a third-rate
flour, or that part of -four remaining
after the best part of it has been ex-
tracted to be sold as the patent pro-
duct. This remnant is chemicaIized
and otherwise 'doctored' to an alarm
ing extent"
Mrs. Ellen Marshall Rugg, president
of the alliance. announced that the
alliance members were considering a
plan of accommodating data, such as the
health, appearance, habits and char
acter Of present and past servants
coming under their observation. The
information so gathered will be used
in classifying servants in grades for
future reference.

Too Lavish.

Mrs Dobbs was trying to find out
the likes and dislikes of her new
boarder, and all she learned increased
her satisfaction. -
do you want pie for breakfast?'
she asked.
mo, l thank you," said the new
boarder, with smile. pie for break
fast seems a little too much."'
That's just the way l look at it,
said Mrs. Dobbs, heartily. Il say pie
for dinner is a necessity, and pie for
supper gives a kind O. finishing touch
to the day; but pie for breakfast is

lmportation of Leeches.

Leeches are enumerated by the bu-
reau of statistics under it's general
head of animals imported, the total
value of the imports of this species
in 1908 having been $5,341; in 1907,
s6,922; in 1906, s4,494; in 1905, $500;
in 1904, s3,5S9; in 1908, 1920, and in
1902, s2,412-the commerce in leeches
being thus of growing character.
The total value of the leeches i'm
ported into the United States in the
decade ending with 1908, is about $40,-
900. Leeches are imported free of
duty. Snails were at one time emu
merated as an article of importation,
the records from 1894 to 1898 showing
snails imported to the extent of about
$4,000; but the snail trade so dwin-
died, showing only 1874 of imports in
1898, that the bureau discontinued it's
statements of this article.

DROVE HUSBAND FROM HOME
Act of Militant suffragette That Was
Too Arbitrary to Be Upheld
py the Court.

The results that may ensue from
being married to suffragette were
revealed the other day in a London
(Eng.) suburban police court. Mrs.
Tunnicliffe took up the cause and was
not able to spend much time at home.
When the husband demonstrated she
simply commanded her daughter to
pack her fathers gripsack and there
and then ordered him out OF the house.
He went and then the lady sued him
for desertion and demanded alimony.
But surely you did not take it so
feebly?" asked the magistrate of the
husband.
1T was no use objecting," was the
answer. "She wanted to be master and
said that if l annoyed her she would
lock me up. l was only too anxious to
go back home, but she would not let
me-"
The case was dismissed,

Do farmers eat the proper sort Of food?

Do farmers eat the proper sort Of food?
The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
It's a good thing that this is so, because
he has great variety to select from.
He should, however, use great care in
selecting for the best results in health
and strength.
The widespread tendency in the city
to increase the amount of Quaker
Scotch Oats eaten is due very largely
to the recent demonstrations by scien-
tific men that the Quaker Scotch Oats
fed man is the man with greatest
physical endurance and greatest men
tai vigor
Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase
the quantity of Quaker Scotch Oats
eaten by themselves, their children
and the farm hands.
