THE WOMEN
WHO SMOKE
HEAD OF SUNDAY SCHOOL AT
LA GRANGE, ILL.,, DECLARES
HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS ALSO
HAVE THE HABIT.

CHICAGO, April 26-That
women of La Grange spend goodly
portion of their time smoking cigar
cts and that lit is a regular prac-
tice for society in that suburb to
puff the paper tubes, was the dec
laration made yesterday by Ben w.
Hull, superintendent of the La
Grange Baptist Sunday school held
in that suburb.
Mr.. Hull, who is prominent La
Grange business man, made his dec
laration just after Rev. Alice Phil
lips Aldrich of Chattanooga. Tenn.
the principal speaker of the day,
had declared that "this afternoon
thousands of women and girls of
Chicago are sitting men fashion,
with their feet up over their heads,
smoking cigarets."
Tobacco and whisky go hand In
hand" Mrs. Aldrich had declared.
In the course of her address she said
also that for the last II years she
had been chaplain of southern
army post, and the use of cigarets
was spreading with alarming rap
idity. ESPECIALLY is this so in the
case Of high school boys and girls" "
she added, and the boy or girl who
will steal away to smoke cigarets
will steal away for more improper
purposes. The south may be be-
hind the north in commercialism,
but it is far in advance of the north
in looking after the morals of its
boys and girls. The southerner
looks less after the dollar and more
after the purity of his children. We
know down there how these evils
work and we are striving to eradi-
cate them"

track. 1t was no landslide and it
took some time for the railroad
men to understand what had hap
pened. A close Investigation
showed that the obstruction on the
track was solid anthracite coal.
Then it was plain to all that the
runaway train had piled the air up
so quickly that it had formed into
a solid mass, which brought the
train to a standstill.
There was nothing left for the
road builders but to lay a track
around the mountain of coal. There
is station called Anthracite at
the place where this remarkable
run ended and hard coal is still
being taken from the mines there.

States senate to oppose Senator
Beveridge, endorsed recently by
the republicans.
Thomas Taggart has announced
that he will be a candidate for the
senate and that he Will go before

this indicates that Taggart be-

T. RS TOOTHLESS LION WOULD BE TAXED
WHILE WHOLE MENAGERIE WOULDN' I

WASHINGTON, April 26.-If ct.
R." should bring back from his
African trip a tame lion whose teeth
he had extracted with his mighty
hand, he would have to pay 20 per
cent duty on the estimated value of
the animal.
But if some circus manager
should bring into this country a
lot Of lions and tigers and elephants
and other menagerie exhibits, no
duty at all would be assessed.
Just after the new tariff law went
into effect an American circus, con-
sisting of tanned dogs and ponies,
which had been performing in Can
ada, tried to come back to the
United States, into the state OF
Washington.
1t was confronted by this peculiar
Language of the tariff bill, and it
looked for a time as though the
owners would have to pay duty on
every horse and pony and dog con-
nected with the show. The local
collector of customs, however, per-
mitted the animals to return to this
country without assessing duty.
Now, nearly a year after, the
treasury department has approved
the collectors action on the same
grounds as will be applied in the
case of race horses and other ami
mails sent to Canada or Mexico for
exhibition purposes, the further
argument being made that there
would be a discrimination if these
American bred animals were not
allowed to come back free of duty
when lions and tigers and other
tropical products in the animal
hive, travelling as a circus or men
agerie, were permitted to enter
without payment of customs duties.

Dear Aunt Laurie:
In the year 2910 horses were things
to be seen only in museums and parks.
Even automobiles were beginning to be
relics, and who ever heard of such a
common thing as fire? One often heard
of house being consumed by elec-
tricity, but never by fire.
There was great invention In 2S40.
It was belt with lifting power which
enabled people and animals to swim
through the air.
The world was densely populated,
with the exception of one mountainous
part of Canada. No one dared move
there. for that was where five fierce
Indians lived.
Mr.. Lovall and his family lived
crowded up on a city lot. They decided
to risk their lives and go into the wilds
to live. They loaded their things onto
an airship and they swan along be-
side it. The dog went ahead. Suddenly
he came hurrying back. II smell the
Indians" he said. prepare to fight"
A minute later they appeared from
behind some trees. While they were
adjusting their electric guns the dog
came up behind and attached some
batteries to them. throwing on 400 volts.
Instantly they dropped dead.
Then the Lovalls descended, and with
the help of electricity house was built
in an hour.
Mrs Lovall entered and commanded
the dirt to leave. With gust 1t blew
out. "You go to the left corner on
the west side of the parlor,' she said to
the piano. Away it flew to its place.
you go to the south bedroom" she
commanded a bed. 1t went were it was
told. All of this was done by cleo
