IF ever the Irish potato was justified in insisting on being called by it's scen- tifc botanical name it is this season, whenitis on display on the markets at all the way from $2 50 to $3 50per bushel, Solanum tuberosum is the fitting and proper designation, if you please, and no such crude or provincial appellation as ''spud" '"tater' or Murphy will pass muster.

AN IMPROVING SERVICE.


For years it has been the Gus
tom with great many papers to rid
icule the forecasts OF the weather bu-
reau. AT one time there may have
been some reason for making fun Of
these prognostications. 1t has taken
time to educate men all over the
country as their observations have to
be depended upon to quite an extent
to make up the local forecasts.
In the city Of Washington there Is
no institution treated with greater re-
spect than the weather bureau and it's
reports are studied with the greatest
Of care, as it has been shown that they
are Of value to everyone. The same is
true in a great many of the larger
cities Of the country. and the weather
bureau appears to be growing in pop
ularity the country over
This is especially the case since
Director Moore was put in charge Of
this bureau and much progress has
been made in establishing confidence
among the people concerning the
service, which, 1T 10 believed, will in
crease as the years go by.

The democrats were opposed to the
enactment OF this measure by the asst
Legislature. largely on account OF Its
alleged unconstitutionality There are.
Of course, other reasons why they are
antagonistic.
Ike law provides for the election Of
ten delegates to each national con fen-
ton and that the delegates declared
elected must vote for the representa-
tives OF their party who received the
most votes for the ofEice Of president
and vice president. It also provides
for the election of national committee
man of each political organization by
popular ballot. Another provision is
that each delegate to a national con-
vention is to be paid 5000 BY the state
as expenses for the trip.
Tuner pKON4Sluu5 GA That The uuE1E-
ipal elections and the township cleo

YOUNG MEN or so.

The New York Times has the fol-
lowing anti-csler theory comment: ?
The London papers discussion OF
| men too young at so" is a matter that
| should provoke comment in all civil
lied countries. Is 1t not a sign OF CIV
ilization and of scientific development
that the periods of youth, maturity,
middle age and old age should be set
forward a decade or score Of years ?
We now know what our forefathers
failed to take account of, that the per-
tod of bodily growth does not cease
with its attainment Of stature. The
vital organs continue to expand. The
brain and lungs develop until so, the
liver until 35 and the heart into the
4O's. That used to be considered mid
die age, although maturity is but just
attained. At As the human machine,
new and completed, should be ready
for its life career.
The London papers are Boosting OF
their octogenarian Lord Mayor, the
athlete Of rs, who won his swimming
race in the Serpentine; the new play
by Thomas Hardy, aged ~, and the
unionist party's S6-year -old leader,
the Earl OF Halsbury. Curiously, the
efficiency of the young old men of to-
day, as compared with the old men of
a generation ago, is ascribed to their
use of modern inventions:
Now the old men are climbing
back into the seat Of power. Young
men no longer monopolize the ma
chimes; the old men have them, too, |
and put more force behind them"
Is it possible that the typewriter, |
the telephone, the motor-car and the |
limited express, which contribute to
the rush and hurry Of present-day af-
fairs, when utilized by the older men,
conduce to their longevity and vigor? |
Possibly. Are they not labor saving
machines?
We hear much Of the forcing of i'm
mature minds, Of Fastening develop
ment in the schools. of the strain and
excitement Of urban living, Of increase
n diseases Of the vital structures, I'M
1t foods, improper recreation and nery-
BUS breakdowns. There Is increased
accuracy in diagnosis of all these ills,
'ompleter statistics of them, more
and painstalxing treatment.
But in Prussia, where civilization has
advanced furthest, life has been most
prolonged. The longer man lives the
better he learns how to live. The
ountain Of perpetual youth has not
ret been found. but the diseases which
maturity and forbid the at
ainment of ripe powers and vigor have
'een checked, and a natural dissolu-
ion OF life is made more possible.
