LET'S SETTLE THIS MATTER
RIGHT.

One Missouri newspaper says
that Sh million dollars is too much
money to he used in rebuilding the
state capitol; another paper says
that it's too little-and there you
are. What are we to do, boys?
Shall we s%quabblo owe this matter
for q dozen years, being without a
state home all Of this time? Would
it not be better TO get together in
a spirit Of concession and go ahead
and rebuild at once? Let's not lose
the hne inspiration hal comes from
& patriotic duty promptly done.
Let's not give our enemies an op-
portunlty to pillar Missouri in the
pitiless columns of ridicule as the
oapitolless state for a decade. We
must have a new capitol; why not
get together and vote to rebuild,
the first dash out of the box? Come
IN. boys; let's settle this matter
for all time to come. It's the wise,
practical, sensible, economical, pa
triotic thing to do,

GREEN IN GOOD SHAPE
TO MEET TIGER ELEVEN
Bennett Is the Only Dartmouth Regular
Not Likely to Get into
the Play

Hanover, n H., Nov. l0.--Bright and
early this morning-at 500 o'clock, 20
be exact--Dartmouth's gridiron warriors
left en- route to Princeton, where the
green clashes with the yellow and black
tomorrow afternoon. Dartmouth play
ers will arrive in New York late this
afternoon, travelling on to Tigertown
Saturday morning
With the two most important games
Of its schedule ahead, the Dartmouth
team is in pretty fair physical condi-
ton, better, in fact, than it has been
at any time during the earlier stages of
its development. The only one Of the
varsity regulars who will probably be
unable 70 get into the lineup is Bennett,
at left guard, the coaches deciding that
it would hardly be worth while to take
chances putting him into the line.
Whether Whitmore or Beer will be sent
in at the start Of the game is the only
question not yet settled in connection
with the lineup.
Dartmouth will 90 down, bristling
with aggressiveness and new plays.

President Johnson Says He Has Evidence
That Will Astonish Baseball World

Cincinnati, o., Nov. l0.--"We will 60

said B. B. Johnson, president of the
American league, when he arrived here
yesterday to participate in a meeting Of
the national baseball commission. Be-
sides Mr.. Johnson, Thomas Lynch, presi-
dent of the National league, and many
prominent baseball men, were here to
attend the meeting, which was held late
Yesterday.
Aside from the ticket speculation in
vestigation the committee heard the APP
peals Of the Eastern league and Ameri-
can association to be granted higher
classification in the national agreement.
None of the members of the commission
would say what action that body would
take on the petitions. Many of the
baseball men at present in the city
stopped over on their way to attend the
big baseball meeting at San Antonio,
Tex, on November 10.

Rumors That Directors Are Considering
Offer of Voluntary Reorganization.

New York, Nov l0.-Following the
announcement Of approval by the judges
Of the United States circuit court Of
the American Tobacco company's plan
or reorganization, reports were general
ly circulated In the Wall street district
yesterday that directors We're in confer
ence with view to offering to the gov
eminent voluntary dissolution along
similar lines, hoping thereby to put an
end to the suit against the corporation.
Nothing definite could be learned of the
report, and many were disposed to place
little eredenee in IL, especially in view
of the Morgan-Gary statement before
the suit and Judge Gary's remarks since
then claiming the corporation to be le-
gal in its present form.

ton that the decision Of the United
States circuit court accepting the Amer.
lean Tobacco company's plan was dis
cussed in Wall street yesterday with
manifestations of relief The effect of
the decision on the securities of the
Tobacco company and its subsidiaries
was less interesting than the result in
the general market. Although steps
may be taken by the independent to-
baeco men to review the decision of the
circuit court it seems to have stopped
talk of receverships, fear of which was
the bugbear that lowered over investors
since the Independents began their ac-
tive fight against the reorganization
plans proposed by the company. Stock
market operators as a rule, however, an
ticipated the action of the court ever
since the attorney general Indicated bis
approval Of the scheme. The slight
notifications made by the court in the
proposition submitted by the company
have brought forth no expressions Of
disappointment or disapproval from the
officers and counsel for the disintegrated
trusts.
American Tobacco Securities Go Up.
The stock market made an emphatic
response yesterday to the courts ap-
prevail of the American Tobacco company

Two captains are chosen by lot, and
they choose the players, n after the

ed. Then the players seat themselves
In two rows, facing each other, and
the captain who has won the first play

he throws the handkerchief he calls
out one of the words: "Earthl'
"Water!'s "Air!" "Fireg' If earth
be called the player into whose lap the
handkerchief has fallen must name
some q~uadruped before the thrower OF
the handkerchief counts ten; IL water
be called he must name some kind OF
fish; If air, he must name some kind
Of bird, and Ii fire be called he must
remain SILENT II the player should
name the wrong thing or speak when
he ought to remain silent he must
drop out of the game, and the player
who threw the handkerchief must
then throw 1t at some one else on the
opposite side. If this second player
at whom the handkerchief is thrown
should answer promptly, he throws II
at a player on the opposite side, calls
out one of the four words mentioned
and counts ten, and the game goes on
thus until all the players on one side
have dropped out, when, OF course, the
other side wins.

What q Little Seed Did.

In the city of Hanover, in Germany,
is an old, neglected graveyard. Near
the entrance is a tomb In which lie
the remains Of a lady who belonged to
the old nobility and who was buried
there about the middle Of the last CEN
fury. The tomb Is covered with mas
sive blocks of stone. On one of these
stones, besides the name Of the lady
and the date of her death, there are
these words: This grave, bought for
all my time, must never be opened"
But there are mightier forces than
heavy stones and iron clamps. A lit
tie seed found lodging in the crevice
between two of the stones. 1t took
root and grew until now there Is an
immense birch tree waving it's grace
full limbs over the tomb. Its roots
went through the grave, and the trunk
lifted the great stones and broke the
iron clamps. and the little seed had
opened the grave. for its power was
greater than the stone and the iron.

For the children
A Marine Fish With .
Very Peculiar Head.

Among the most remarkable marine
creatures are the trachypteridae or
deal fishes, which are similar to the
car fish, also a very singular creature.
but OF smaller size and oc-
currence, says St Nicholas.
The deal fish Is from three to four
feet in length ard has a thin body,
which would be transparent were 1t
not covered with a white pigment that
makes it look like FURNISHED silver;
on the white surface are n or two
blotches.
The head is somewhat like that OF
the a fish, to which it is closely re
lated. Both have small teeth and can
not bite, even IL they wished to do 80.
but they do not, for they are quite In
offensive creatures. On the head OF
the deal fish Is a large, streamer-ike
fin, and at the end Of the tail, instead
OF the ordinary caudal en-, is a long,
slim fin that projects up at right an
giles to the backbone. No other Ssh
has this popularity. The specimen
which Is shown In the photograph
above was caught in Monterey bay In
1907 and sent to Leland Stanford, Jr.,
university.

How to Be Beautiful.

Few girls are able to give to their
adjournment the care that the beauty
specialist demands. If they followed
all rules they would have good skins
and hair, perhaps, but their brains
would be starved and their hearts
atrophied for lack of development
The busy girl may be inclined to
scott at beauty measures and pride
herself on being above such vanities.
II she does SO, foolish indeed Is she.
1t is not vain to look ones best. In
deed, It is a good health investment.
What is needed are everyday rules
Cor everyday beauty.
1t Is not needful to have elaborate
massage, a maid and unlimited time
to make the best of oneself physical
~. A little care of the right sort CIV
en- daily is all that is required.
Remember, the complexion is the ba-
rometer Of the body, and watch it well.
| If the skin is bletched, sallow or pasty
there is something wrong, perhaps
physically, perhaps through neglect of
sanitary precautions,
You may have such a good digestion
that 1t will make the blood flow freely
In your veins, but If you neglect to
keep your face properly washed your
skin will not reflect health.
Keeping Skin Clean.
The skin Of the face absorbs impuri-
ties rapidly. After a days shopping
or exposure to the winds and dust
these Impurities must be cleansed or
the skin will clog.
1t will not take long. A. thorough
washing with pure soap and water or
an application of hot cloths does it.
When the skin feels hot rub in a little
cold cream and rest a few minutes,
then wipe off and spray the face with
cold water to act as a tonic.
Where sensitive skin Is injured by
too much water there are good cleans
Ing creams that may be used, or the
face can be wiped off after exposure
with three parts of rosewater to one

You may not have time or money
for hair treatments, but every woman

No woman should be SO busy or SO
tired that she omtts to take down her
hair at night and massage the scalp.
Keep erect, have -FOUR rooms well
ventilated, draw deep breaths FREE

adjusted and not allowed to be sloppy,
wear comfortable shoes for the sake
of your nerves and temper, and do not
overeat II you value your good looks.
Rest a Few Moments.
Take time 10 rest a rev minutes
each day. 1t will keep you young
longer than all other beauty prescrip-
lions.
Besides eating moderately, learn TO
eat slowly. Boiling food is ruinous to
good looks. When under heavy strain
| let your meals be small and frequent.
Do moi overlook the value of water
and plenty Of 1t as a beauty agent.
Remember that the keynote of
health and beauty is relaxation and a

herself to be q grind and given to
