FITS OF PURE ANGER.
How to Know and Check This Dan
gorous Tendency.

gcrous Tendency.
There is many young mother who
admires secretly the little outburstS
Of anger that baby gives vent to and
thinks they are funny and cute until
by the time the child is two or three
years old she awakes to the sad real
ization that her baby has grown into Il
willful and spoiled child who is thought
nnything but lovable and cute by 9th
er people. She then begins to see
what lack of discipline has done for
the baby. Every mother, out OF jus
tice to the child as well as to herself,
should check these outbursts of anger
when the child first shows an inclina-
ton to indulge in them. But when
the mother finds that the outbursts
have taken firm hold on the child
and seem to occur periodically she
should set about the tedious task of
overcoming them.
The little one should be punished.
but her will must not be broken By
repeated "spankings." for these seldom
fail to give the child Il moody. sulky
disposition 1t takes times and pa
thence to effect cure The best cure
for these fits of anger is to shut the
child in room by itself whenever
they occur. a particularly successful
method of making IL naughty child
good is to divert it's attention from I'M
pleasant things. Children often have as
much to make them irritable and cross
as Il grown person, and when a moth
er notices that child is fretful it
takes but minute to find an unused
toy or new book or to suggest new
and interesting occupation that will
brighten the child's mood and prevent
an outburst of anger before the child
can be aware Of its existence

Aquatic plants for the home garden
are not grown as much as they should
he. Amateurs who hesitate for fear
of failure are wrong, for water lilies
require far less care than tender bud-
ding plants and are less expensive.
ANY swampy or Doggy ground can
easily be converted into an aquatic
GARDEN. Flowpring shrubs. trees and
ferns will GROW luXuriantly near a
pond. When you decide on the loca-
ton Of your pond, which should be at
the lowest point Of the garden, dig
out the soil from eighteen inches to
three feet deep, depending on the
severity of the winters in your local
ity. The lilies must be planted deep
enough to prevent them freezing. An
inexpensive way to make the pond
hold water is to line 1t with common
clay. Cover the bottom and sides Of
the pond with this clay three or four
inches thick and beat firmly until solid
and even. The best mcth0d Is to plant
the water lilies in boxes or tubs. Use
very rich soil. as coarse as possible.
Rough pieces Of sod and Jumps Of
earth should be mixed in, Boxes hold
ing five or six cubic feet will accom-
modate strong growing plants and
others holding half that much will be
large enough for the weaker growing
plants. If the pond IS large the soil
may be placed on the bottom and the
plants set out in it, but IN smaller
ponds under this method the roots OF
the stronger plants will quickly cover
the bottom. crowdng ont the weaker

TWOSHOT
in CAFE
BRAWL

AS the result of a shooting af-
fray at the Eagle cafe, 1928 Com
merce street late last night,
George Dohrs is at the Fannie
Paddock hospital shot through the
lung, Oscar Welfringer suffers
from a-shot in the hand, and Roy
Sands, Frank Doran and John Paw
lis are held by the police, charged
with doing the shooting.
Sands, who had been drinking
at the bar. attempted to force him
self into the cafe, which is only
separated from the bar by slight
partition. In the open stalls of
the cafe were several Greeks and
a woman. They resented Sands
intrusion and began to put him
out. When they got him put on
the sidewalk Sands pulled a gun
from his pocket and began shoot
ing, Dohrs receiving one of the
shots in the chest, and Wellfring-
er, who had run up to see the
trouble, got bullet in his hand.
Dohrs was removed to the Fan
ME Paddock hospital, where he
lies in a precarious condition.
The woman who was in the cafe
at the time tells a different story,
in which she says she does not be-
lieve Sands did the shooting, but
her story is given little credence.

OFFERED TO
HANG JURY
FOR $500
JUROR IN TRIAL OF MILLION
ARRESTED ON SERIOUS
CHARGE.

CBy United Press Leased Wire. }
NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-George
Yeandle, an architect, Juror in
the case of Edward Rosenheimer,
was arrested today charged with
having offered to hang the jury
for $500. Rosenheimer, who is a
millionaire, is on trial for MUIR
der in the first degree because his
automobile ran down and killed
Grace Hough last August.
A man named Timondoffer, a
builder, was also arrested. 1t is
alleged that Timondoffer, repre-
senting Yeandle, made an offer to
Rosenheimer's attorney, James w.
Osborne, to prevent a verdict.
In default of $4,000, Yeandle
and Timondoffer were remanded
to the Tombs for examination
Thursday. The police assert that
Yeandle admits hanging the Nan
Patterson jury on which he sat
The revelation probably will cause
an investigation of the Patterson
trial.
Marked bills were given Yean-
die and were found in his pocket
when arrested.

Tammany Warns.

In the circular sent out by
Tammany Hall soliciting contri.
buttons from Wall street, the is
sue is clearly defined:
Roosevelt will disturb values.
1t will require a large sum of
money to defeat the Roosevelt
policies"
Those are the very words used.
Tammany Hall, Wall street and
the buslness-controlled newspa-
pers all on one side, Roosevelt and
some of the people on the other.
The terror of disturbed busi-
ness conditions" and unsettled
values" is the club with which
the opposition is trying to blud-
geon Roosevelt and progressive
ism. 1t is the same with which
Bryan was dubbed in 1896. And
it is being worked in much the
same way.
Better vote for Dix. He's best
for business"
That is the message carried by
the ticker tape.
In view of these facts ii is diff
ficult to tell whether the New
York landslide will be for or
against Roosevelt.

failure is written in the stars.

lightens their existence is that

and for always. No more Roose-

again the gladstone days of cor
poration contributions, race
tracks, graft and all the incidents
of the Odell-Platt-W Woodruff order
of things.
Not StimsOn, Roosevelt.
Talk with stock brokers, and
big business folk who dine at the
Waldorf-Astoria hotel in New
York will disclose the fact that
they are in a tumult of rejoicing
at the snag which Roosevelt has
encountered. 1t doesn't matter
that Roosevelt isn't an actual can
didate. Stimson Is the candidate
but everyone forgets about Slim
son. Every eye is on Roosevelt
and when election day comes,
nine out of ten voters will be
balloting as though it were for or
against Roosevelt. individually.

announced will be substantially
smalled than was shown by orig

In speaking of the matter Du-

That Is to say, in proportion 70 the
