PLANS TO REFORM
GRAND JURY SYSTEM

Joliet, Ill.-In n speech before the
Mems Club of Christ church, State At
torney Wayman, speaking on Law
and the lawyer" stated that never
since he had been in office had he
been after any particular man.
He stated that his assistant Mr..
Marshall, had prepared a bill which
would be introduced at the next ses-
sion of the legislature to codify the in
dictment system. He referred to
Massachusetts as state where the
simplification of indictments was now
i'm force. BY this method much de-
lay in trying cases could be done
away with There are 1900 cases
waiting trial in Cook county, he said.
He criticised the present jury sys-
TEN and cited one case in which 1000
men were examined before the jury
was secured. He said he had found
that as long as he was in office juries
would be drawn according TO law and
not to further the interests of people
interested in the outcome of cases.

PROSPERITY DANGEROUS
FOR FARMER, HE SAYS

columbia, Mo.-Will the present
prosperity Of tho farmer lead to his
downfall? s. NJ Jordan, "the Mis-
souri, corn man." has much fear, ac-
cording to his speech before the farm
ers in convention here.
IT greatly fear that the exorbitant
prices that the farmer is getting for
his grain and livestock will eventually
lead to his destruction" said Mr. Jor-
dan
"a few years ago the products Of
the farm were selling too low for the
producer to make a living Now the
prices are at the other extreme, and
fear for his prosperity. Think about
the man who lives on a salary in town
He is the one who must use the far
mers product. How many eggs at

bacon is 80 cents n pound, butter 40
cents pound. choice beefsteak al
most as high and flour more costly
than in recent years, the man who
has regular salary that does not in
crease as prices go up can barely live.
THE high price of meat will mean
that Americans must not eat meat.
When any nation ceases to eat meat
il has never been known to return to
the habit. The destruction of the meat

COST OF BEAUTY,

How New York Danes Keep Young
Recently a young New York society
woman received her monthly bill from
a downtown beauty parlor This par
tcular bill amounted to fifty-two dol
lars for the month, which was, per
haps a little lower than the average
monthly accounts rendered by this
shop. It contained such items as
Turkish Baths, 50; Violet Water Rub.
15c; facial massage, 75c. The attend
ants at these exclusive beauty par
lors" frequently make as much as ten
dollars a day in tips. Occasionally
some grand dame" in sables extracts
perfumed ten-dollar piece from her
gold bag and tosses it to Nancy with
am air of lofty grace. One of these
attendants confided to n friend in an
unguarded moment that among the
many lotions and beauty restorers used
in such establishments. a preparation
for restoring gray hair was most in
demand. 1t is usually charged on the
bill at five dollars a bottle. under

first application of scientific forestry
to American conditions was being
made. After his work at Biltmore,
Mr. Graves went abroad for technical

schools of forestry, since no technical
instruction in forestry was then OBJ

Mr.. Graves foreign studies were

On his return TO the United States he
was associated with Mr.. Pinchot in
his office as consulting forester in
New York City. When Mr.. Pinchot
became forester Of the department of
agriculture in July 1898, Mr.. Graves
became his first assistant. He car
rled on forest explorations and inves-
legations in the west.
He left the forest service in 1900 to

at Yale he made a number of trips
in the national forests of the west,

WAS A FlENO FOR FRESH AIR
Upon Having an Open Portfolio
over the Dining Table.

A man who formerly was waiter
on big transatlantic liner told this
story the other day;
"On certain trip over had at my
table an irascible old gentleman who
was fresh air fiend No matter what
the weather, he always insisted on
having the portfolio over the table
open. 1t was no use to argue with
him, but one day, when the seas were
very high and the ship pitching and
rolling, ! ventured to demonstrate. He
was up in arms in minute. You
are paid to obey order! he said
tartly Open that port!' ! did. The
soup course was served in safety.
Then / asked him II he would have
fish OF course will, he snapped.
And I'll have it in a hurry. Don't
keep me waiting all day
Just at that moment an unusually
big sea rolled by. That is. part of 1t
did. A goodly portion came through
the portfolio, soaking the old man and
depositing on the table in front OF
him live fish. No waiter on board
of on" ship had ever served an order
so quickly before. But didn't get
any credit for it, The queer thing
about that story" he added "is that
it isn't fish story at all never
told it yet to any one who believed it.
But 1t is absolutely true"

WHY MEN ARE NOT PRETTY
investigation Ascrbes Lack of Good
Looks to Mental Labor and Close
Attention to Business.

A British investigator is ungallant
enough to state that the reason why
women are as a rule of a beauty not at
tanned by man lies in the fact that they
are more indolent and not so prone to
exercise their brains as men are. In,
tellectual labors and assiduous atten.
ton to business are. according to this
authority, matters extremely premdi.,
cial - the development of physical
beauty.
In support of his theory this Britou
points to the Zaros. a tribe Of British
India. Among them, it appears, won.

tries is preempted by men. The FARO

count and does not restrict herself in.

ON the other hand, the Faro man has
nothing TO do but cook the meals and
look after the children. The natural.
result of all this, says our scientist. is
that the men of this singular tribe are

portion not reserved for posts and sleepers for
this extract In Paraguay and areas in the Chaco
remote from good roads so that the cost of sup
plying timber is excessive, every particle Of the
wood is turned into extract because the demand
is usually in advance of the supply, and 1t is there
fore more profitable to manufacture the more
concentrated article, which can be easier and more
economically carried to market.
One feature of quebracho, in which It is SUI
peror to other sources of supply is that the bark
the sapwood and the whole of the central part
of the tree produce the extract in considerable
quantities. The bark contains to per cent of
tannin, the sap to per cent, and the heart 20
to 25 per cent As the heart represents two-thirds
and often throefourths of the total quantity of
wood, the amount of tannin in the Quebracho colo
RADIO is seen to be considerable. 1t is merely a
chemical question whether his tanning material
is equal inferior to that from the oak but later
methods Of preparation point to a full justification
of the claim that the leather from quebracho ex-
tract grades up to that resulting from any other
tanning substance. So seryiceabe Is IL, however
that since its discovery, the tanning industry OF
the Argentine Republic has made noticeable ad-
vance, because with both hides and extract as
great natural products of the country, the govern
ment is making every effort to foster the leather
industry within its own border.
"Quebracho extract" as It is called in the trade
is easily manufactured when the machinery Is
once installed. All the wood is passed through
a machine that cuts 1t into shavngs or the small,
est possible chips. 1t is then collected into i'm,
mense kettles in which II is treated by chemical
processes until all the tannin is removed; after
this the fluid preparation is reduced by eyapora.
ton to a thick, jellylke mass which is poured
into sacks where it is finally dried into the sub
stance sold in commerce.
The difficulty Of gathering the raw material far
outweighs the preparation Of the finished article
especially the extract is no longer 70 be con
sidered byproduct, but is coming to have more
Importance and value than posts and sleepers. n
Paraguay particularly, where all the wood Is util
lied for extract the hardest part Of the business
lies in gathering wood for the factory. The trees
are cut I'm the heart Of the virgin forest and
hauled by OK teams to the nearest clearing. Only
native indians have proven themselves suitable
for the work they are thoroughly acclimated
understand the wilderness, and can withstand the
plague of insects which make life at night mis-
cradle for the foreigner; and exposure for nights
as well as days is unavoidable, because the cut
ting stations usually remote from any settle
ment
In 1895 the first real expectation of quebracho
extract from the River Plate was recorded. The
increase has been rapid-from 400 tons in the first
year to 5000 tons in 1902 120594 tons In the next
five years. and 2s,195 tons in 1907. OF this guam
tity the United states received 1873 tons, al
most e5 per cent
