THE DRAcHM.

The apothecary's drachm original.
ly signifed "only as much raw spirit
as can be held in the mouth" Some
practical reason accounts also for
such picturesque measures as a Glove
of cheese, a dicker Of hides, fother
of lead, pocket Of hops and a keel
of coal, just as Cambridge repudiates
the old gibe that it is the place
where mathematics are taught and
butter is sold by the yard, with the
answer that long thin rolls are the
form in which butter is most easily
sliced up for serving with under
graduates commons.

WOMEN WHO DO THINGS.

The world is more and more in
terested in the women Of Denmark,
who have gone about the matter of
getting their ''rights" in such quiet
and efficient way. Mrs. Zahle, the
wife of the new premier, is said to
be an expert stenographer and has
been employed on the official report
ing staff of the Danish parliament
since 1895. She was the first woman
to work there as a stenographer and
was at first very much opposed, the
upper house being especially hostile.
When her husband made his open
ing address as premier she took
every word of his speech.

ADVERTISING DOGS CEMETERY.

For several years Parisians and
English visitors to Paris have made
pious pilgrimages to the dogs GEM
etery, on the lie DIES Ravageurs, just
outside the city. There they have
read with emotion such inscriptions
as "a mon Toutou ADORE" "a mon
malou cheri" and many others Of
similar kind. But it now transpires
that these tender tributes were the
invention of some enterprising stone
carver who, when the graveyard was
opened in 1899, was given a monop-
oily for the tombstones to be erected
over the graves of the canine favor
ties. In order to attract others he
erected so stones in various parts of
the cemetery and engraved apocry-
phal Inscriptions on them.

OF A LITERARY TURN.

Mrs. William Phelps, who before
her marriage in London recently
was Miss Caroline Brayton, a grand
daughter of the late William Astor,
is quite wealthy in her own right,
but is said to have gone in for the
intellectual side of life rather than
the gayety. She is a very beautiful
woman, and because of the leaning
towards the more serious side Of life
will no doubt find her life in Eng
land very satisfactory.

HAzEL'S BOUDOIR

She is vain and foolish lass; she
stands before her looking glass, and
fuses with her pins and rats, and
tries on half a dozen hats. and fixes
doodads in her hair, and tints her
cheeks already fair. And when
she's fooled three hours away and
when she appears, in glad array,
she isn't half as nice and neat, she
isn't half as slick and sweet as she
four hours ago, when
she was wearing calico. If she
would take the time she fools away
with paints and curling tools, and
read some books, of proseor rhyme,
she'd get some value for her time.
She pads her head outside with rats
made hair and monster

A Kansas City physician has
found that high collars worn by
women produce cancer of the
throat, low necked dresses produce
pneumonia, corsets cause heart
disease and shortness of breath, and
long skirts gather up germs of all
infectious diseases, thin soles pro-
duce consumption and tight shoes
cause the toes to grow together;
and looking at bright millinery
causes sore eyes. Woman should
be very careful about these things.

In his advertisement in the New
York Evening Post, Butler, Rus
sell and Pettigrew said in April
1905:
"This committee is onw ready
to proceed with the collection of
ALL other repudiated bonds OF
every class of each state"
In his speech at Charlotte, Octo-
Der 1st, 1910, Butler said:
"The editor of The News and
Observer knows that they (the
holders Of carpet-bag bonds) tried
to employ me to represent those
carpet-bag bonds, and I refused to
be employed, and further told
them that the bonds were not
honest.
Which time did Butler tell the
truth.-News and Observer.

Newton Enterprise.
They are rising. In Maine they
asserted themselves last month.
In every Republican State OF the
North and West the young voters,
egardless of the party ties Of their
fathers, and many of the older vot-
ers as well, are lined up in the De
mocratic ranks ready for the word
ego" on the morning of Novem-
Der 9Th.
The Democratic party appeals to
the patriotism and manhood Of the
young voters.
It asks them to stand for a sim
ple, economical government; the
collection of only enough taxes to
meet the requirements of an econ
omical, honest government; the
repeal of laws that have made a
small number Of people rich and
the masses poor; the laws that
lew tribute on the many for the
benefit of the few. 1t is the party
of equal opportunities and equal
rights.
The Republican party appeals,
in soliciting the votes of the young
men, to their selfish natures. 1t
relies on promising individual fav-
ors, public Office and rewards from
the public treasury, and asks them
to help by their votes to Cypress
their neighbors and all who are
not oficeholders, grafters or bene-
fciaries Of the unequal and unjust
laws. And how few ever reap the
rewards andofices promised! Re
publican leaders and bosses, and
they are generally p~ostmasters or
other officeholders, look upon the
public treasury, whether National
State or county, Is a party asset,
as belonging to the party, intead
Of to the people as a whole.
Is there any wonder that coun-
ties under Republican control invar-
iably run out of fundsf That the
unfortunate and helpless poor In
the county homes r stinted in
food and common comforts, and
outrageous bills paid to favorites,
like the county physician, for I'M
authorized prescriptions and I'M
authorized visits; to jailers for
fuel and light bills in addition to
the authorized board bills for pris-
oners; and SO forth and so on?

The Sad Story of Mary and Her
Little Bond, With A Modern

The Sad Story of Mary and Her
Little Bond, With A Modern
Application.
Mary had a little BOND,
AS black as printers ink,
And everywhere that MARY went
That BOND was sure to stink !
To South Dakota Mary went,
To sell that BOND she tried;
And though she boosted fair de-
scent,
The bastard showed she lied!
Then in a pet did MARY get
Her BOND no interest drew;
Twas IN this pet that Mary let
Her scheme to Pettigrew.
Now Pettigrew the Bosses knew,
He licked his chops and smiled,
From MARY, true, old Pettigrew
Adopted the bastard childl
The price she laid, or how twas
paid,
10 surface never rose;
But MARY grew, with Pettigrew,
10 wearing silken HOSE!
AS MARY returned, her bosom
burned
For other BONDS to sell;
Nor did she think that BOND
would stink
80 far and yet so we'll
She tried in vain new BONDS to
gain.
Like Joseph they repealed her,
though near she drew, and lecher-
Gus grew,
They tainted when they smelled
her!
lis sad to think how BONDS will
stink,
And fondest schemes discover;
FOR MARY knows, where FER she
goes,
mat scent will go forever.
