The President receives a salary of

pass a bill to give~all ex-Presidents a
salary of $4,000 a year for the re-

n of the first to condemn the ex-

1t is III of the admirable features
of this government of ours that a

exalted position, and then when his

Have You Neuritis?

This seems to be a neuritis age. Al
most every woman you meet is hold
ing her arm and telling of the pain it
gives her.
1t is small comfort that we bring
these pains on ourselves by our way
OF living. What we want to know Is
how to get rid of u discomfort.
The surest time to do this is at the
first twinge. Neglected neuritis Is
acute agony that may not yield to rem
edies through long years. The first
thing to be done is to go easy. Stop
rushing, let up on your round OF en-
gagements, cut out bridge, even the
care OF your children for part of each
day-anything to give you a long rest.
Live more in the open air, but do
moi make the mistake of overexercis-
ing. Your nerves need rest, not excite

greater ease than when such is not

barred muslin and the yoke and sleeve

the c~ross-barred and embroidered
muslin this season but plain, nain-

PRESIDENT AND DEMOCRACY.

1t is surprising to hear such a
democratic newspaper as the New
York World finding fault with Theo-
dore Roosevelt because he is going
about the country as other citizens,
mingling with his fellow men as he
sees fit, and earning his living ac-
-c6rding to- his chosen method. The
World is always shouting, down
with di~ctators." 1t is always i'm
pressing upon us the fact that this is
a democracy where all men are
equal.
Now this is all very well, but why
not be consistent? Because a man
has once been President is no reason
why he should set himself above all
the rest of US and live at public ex-
pense forever after, If the World
argument is to be applied. The fact
that Mr.. Roosevelt, after being
President, gets down like any other
private citizen and hustles for a
living. whether he writes for a maya
pine or digs in a ditch, ought to bear
out the Worlds idea of a democracy
in every way. Instead, however, the
World now accuses Mr.. Roosevelt of
working for a magazine and of max
ing d tour across the continent for
advertising purposes. The World
closes it's fa~ult-hnding editorial as

NoN.pARrrsAN SCHOOL BOARD.

BY. close examination of the peti.
tons issued for school commission
ers 1t has been found that there is
nothing to bar a republican from
being named on the democratic bal
lot, or anything to prevent a demo
crat being placed on a republican
ballot, as long as the signers IN the
respective petitions are of the party
designated by the petition. 1t seems
to be the intention of the primary
law to allow anybody to be nominal
ed by either party as long as enough
members of that party are willing to
give their endorsement.
1t is understood hat democrats
are already circulating petitions to
have the four republican members
of the present school board placed
on the democratic ballot, thus favor
ing a non-partisan Board of Educa-
tioI. The democratic organization
III probably give its support to this
plan. This being the case some pub
lie spirited republicans should get
busy with petitions to have the
names of the five democrats placed
on the republican ballots SO hat re-
publicans can vote for the school
board as It now stands if they SO
desire.
The interviews as published in to-
days EVENING NEWS show plainly
that the people are DESTROYS that the
