NOT THE FARsnGRs FAULT

When he was In New York just
before Christmas Governor Harmon
said In an interview: 81 think the
higher cost OF living Is due to the
tariff, for the higher prices do not
apply to farm products only"
In his special message to the leg
islature Jan. II advising an Inquiry
into high prices Governor Harmon
said, There Is widespread belief
that among the causes of this (rapid
advance In prlces) combinations ana
conspiracles to stiile competition and
advance prIceB figure largely This
belief is apparently justified by the
enormous differences between the
prices paid to farmers, cattle raisers
and other producers and those paid
by consumers to the dealers from
whom they directly receive their sup
plies. 1t is currently reported, too,
on the statements OF such dealers and
other anthority that the prices at
which they sell arc fixed By those
from whom they buy, with threats
OF cutting off further dealings II the
prices 90 fixed are not maintained"
The farmers Institute OF Summit
county put che same belief into one
of It's resolutions, which reads: Re
solved, That the low price the farmer
receives for hIs produce Is entirely
cut OF keeplno with the high price
the consumer pays for the sam'
thing"
You see that Governor Harmon an'
the farmers are exactly of the SAM
opinion.
These quotations make plain an
other point. Governor Harmon salt
in his special message to the leElsla
ture, "lf the fault lies partly In tn
laws of congress your judgment a

Learn the Secret of Relaxation.


The household cat Is an excellent
model for the average woman to keep
before her eyes. Let women learn her
secret of relaxation, and they may keep
the fleXibility and grace of youth al
most indefinitely. They can also keep
their faces unlined for years after the
woman who Is always In state OF
tension has begun to mourn over
crows feet. Pussy has muscles of iron
and terrible claws. which she can use
to excellent effect when she wants to,
but when she doesn't want to use them
the muscles are In Il state of absolute
relaxation and the claws are sheathed
In softest velvet. The average woman
never relaXes either her mind or her
body, and even in sleep she Is all tied
up in mental and physical knots. She
becomes so accustomed to WEAKNESS
that she does not recognize 1t as such,
and as long as she Is able to stand II
does not occur to her that she Is tired.
Society, which has heaped so many
petty cares on her shoulders, Is more
to blame for this characteristic than
she is herself, but 1t isn't always nee
essary to carry the cares about all the
time nor to continue the tension habit
after the reason for 1t is gone.

CONSTRUCTIVE OR

The Langdon bill, prepared after
a synopsis of Senator Alsdorfs bill

another scheme to "stead Democratic

DENIES sLUGGING COWLEs
Paymaster Auld Takes Stand In own
Behalf at Courtmartial.

Boston, Feb. 3.-Flat denih by
Paymaster G. p. Aud, whose colrt-
martial Is in progress at the Charles
town navy yard here, that he had
struck DR.. Edward S. Cowles at a
navy yard hop; his declaration that
he had ordered DR.. Cowles from the
dance because the latter had been
pursuing pretty Dorothy Hesler of
Chicago, and the revelation that to
Miss Margaret Ames, hostess at the
dance where the trouble occurred,
was the courtmartial due, were the
sensations at the hearing Of the navy
scandal
Miss Margaret Ames, hostess at the
trouble dance, testified that Auld on
the night he Is said to have attacked
DR.. Cowles, was very much agitated.
She said he was not under the influ-
ence of liquor, but that he was not
quite himself. Pressed to explain,
Miss Ames invoked the protection of
the court and declaring that the
cause of Aulds agitation had nothing
to do with the Cowlcs affair, was per-
mitted to step down.

There are women who are born to
retain looks suggestive OF youth up to
q considerable age. Others achieve
this summer time sweetness with con-
siderable pains, and all those between
look us old as they are, or older, which
Is great sin In these enlightened
times.
The road to beauty place must be
worked ON every day In quarter mile
sections to get anything like good re-
suits in the way of breaking ground
for permanent prettlness. Woman can
not let the sun set upon her idleness.
She must practice young eyes, whip
the forehead line that wants to tres
pass chastise the lobes of her ears
and teach her eyebrows the way they
should go.
1t seems a funny thing to say, but II
Is the neglected eyebrow which gives
the first hint Of the fight of time.
Neglected eyebrows always look rag.
gcd, and when the period arrives for
further misbehavior they develop into
a long hair here and there, grow thin
ana sometimes fall out entirely. What
must be done? Why, they must be
brushed night and morning with a
tiny soft brush kept entirely for the
purpose. They must be creased reli
giouSly every night with feeding oil
and at no time, day or night, must
they be rubbed the wrong way.
The oil rcnews the colorng matter
which advancing years diminish, and
the brushing promotes a silky quality
and ships off the end of the too long
hair or pulls 1t out entirely. The right
grooming Of the brows-from the cen
ter OF the forehead to the temples-is
matter of good sense, for the hairs
grow this way, and to brush them
contrarlwlse Is to encourage roughness

ROUND TRIP BUT NO ROUNDUP

What the dickens did Wade Ellis
go TO Chicago for. anyway? Wash
ington dispatches announced like a
blare of trumpets that he was going
to wage war on the beef trust, that
he was going to prosecute the big
Chicago firms. that the charges
would be criminal. that dissolution
suit would follow, that the federal
grand jury would be asked to probe
the combine OF packers and that all
this was the result of six months
spent on secret investigation of the
packing industry.
Then came dispatches from Chi
cago announcing that Ellis was under
specific instructions to take sole
charge of the investigation but Judge
Lands (who once imposed a $29,-
100000 fine on the Standard Oil
company )woud not permit him to
Interfere, that there was danger of a
clash between the executive and judi
cial branches of the government, and
that Judge Lands threatened TO APP
point special prosecutor If Ellis
attempted to take charge OF the in
quiry.
After that came dispatches from
Chicago stating that Ellis was sent
there to establish harmony between
the department Of justice and fed
eral Judge Lands, who ordered the
present inquiry by Chicago grand
jury and that Ellis did not succeed
In his mission; that Ellis conferred
with Judge Lands m re than an
hour and made oYertures regarding
the conduct OF the Investigation
which were rejected, and that Judge
lands made IL plain he Intends to
have the inquiry conducted In his
own way
In this connection the story leaks
out that an investigation started by
a federal grand jury at Chicago n
January 1908. (while Rooseve,, wa'

It was on the eve of discovering some
