HIS FIRST WIG.
John D. Rockefeller Was Timid About
Wearing It In Public.

John D. Rockefeller Was Timid About
Wearing 1t In Public.
When John D. Rockefeller first
donned a wig he was apparently some
what timid about showing himself
with it in public. III. NJ. Briggs, who
was for number of years very close
ly connected with Mr.. Rockefeller as
his personal bodyguard, writes in the
American Magazine of the oil kings
debut in his new hirsute adornment:
Zone morning Mr.. Rockefeller came
to church in a wig for the first time.
As he arrived some time before the
services very few were present. DIR.
Eaton, the pastor of the church, laugh
ingly said, MIR. Rockefeller, we love
him into the Sunday school, and we
passed a reporter, who did not recog-
nize him. / told Mr. Rockefeller of
this, and he said, You surprise me-
He inquired if there was mirror in
the church, and / took him into DR..
Eaton's Office. He stood in front of
the glass, and, finally getting it ad-
Justeu, ne asheu lie IL IL looheu an

able. l really did think the wig made
great improvement in his appear
ance. He said that 1t was going to be
quite an ordeal to enter the church for
the service. 1 said, 'Mr. Rockefeller,
you have gone through worse He
shrugged his shoulders, and we passed
into the church together. If his pres
ence on previous occasions never fail
ed to attract attention the stir that
followed his entrance on this particu-
lar morning must be left to the imagi-
nation After the service, when the
ordeal was over, he seemed as tic
killed. with his wig as a boy with new
pair of red topped boots"

OLD SORES
DUE TO DISEASED BLOOD

Every symptom of an old sore sug-
gests diseased blood. The inflamma-
ton, discharge, discolored flesh, and
the fact that local applications have
no permanent effect toward healing
the ulcer, shows that deep down in
the system there is morbid cause for
the sore. But more convincing proof
that bad blood is the cause for these
p,aces is furnished by the fact that
even removing the sore or ulcer by
surgical operation does not cure; they
always return. Nature will heal any
sore if the blood is pure aud healthy,
but until the circulation is cleansed
of all impure matter and supplied
with nourishing and plasmic qualities
the infected condition of flesh is
OBLIGED to remain. S. S. S. heals
Old Sores in a perfectly natural way.
1t goes into the blood, removes the
impurities and morbid matters, adds
nourishing qualities to this vital
fluid, and brings about the very con-

Forced Great Crisis.


They forced the country into great
constitutional crisis in order, they de-
clare, to defend the hereditary princi-
pie in legislation. But no sooner did
the wire pullers tell them that the
constituencies would not stand for the
hereditary principle than they flung
it to the wolves. They are quite ca
pable of expecting the same maneu-
yer with regard to the crown.
OF course. they repudiate at pres
ent any such intentions. But desper-
ate men stick at nothing. The party
that has just slain Banquo is not to
be trusted to refrain from making
short work of Duncan.
Tory Repudi alton Bad.
The record of the Tory party with
regard to the crown is VIGOROUSLY
bad. They always sympathize with
the Jacobites. Their king was over
the water. The sovereigns of the
Hanover destiny were regarded as a
pack of willing usurpers.. Even at the
beginning of the reign of Queen Vic
toria, the Tory press was most UNI
mannerly and disloyal.
They will but be following their
own evil traditions in their chagrin
and impotent rage if they turn upon
the king and rend him, because he
Loyalty follows the counsels of his
constitutional advisers.
May Destroy Party.
1t will only need this threatened
revolution utterly to destroy the Tory
party as an instrument for the gov
eminent of the British empire. This
is so obvious that l cannot bring my
self to believe that, despite all thu
| growing of furious partisans, Balfou
and Lord Lansdowne will force tn,
king to take the extreme measure o
creating 500 peers. Although tina
will become Inevitable if the peers d.
not submit.
Monarchy is far too deeply roote,
in England for any party that has no
utterly lost the instinct of self-preseI
walton directly to-attack it. But tn
Tories have been more or les
demented ever since the Doe
war, and no one exactly know
how crazy their next political NOV
may be. If they should compel tn
creation of 500 peers it will finis
the Tories and will not harm tn
king.

A NEW YEARS GREETING.
TO PRESIDENT TAFT.
======="**== :. I

To William Howard Taft, President
of the United States, the Constitution
extends hearty New Years greeting
in appreciation of his display of
breadth of character, liberality and pa
triotism rarely achieved in our nation
al history.
There are, of course legitimate diff
ferences of opinion concerning Mr..
Tafts attitude toward many national
issues, and room for fair criticism
accordingly.
But one single act of his admins
tration-his recent appointments to
the supreem court of the United States
will make secure his place in our
chronicles, if breadth of spirit and
largeness of vision be the tests by
which posterity measures merit.
His appointment of a southerner. a
democrat, Confederate veteran and
Roman Catholic to the highest jul
dicial office in the land-as he did in
the elevation to the chief justiceship
of Edward Douglass White of Louisi-
ana-indicated a bigness of mind and
a liberality of spirit not often APP
preached in American public life.
His other appointments to the SUI
preme bench, southern, western and
northern, bear out the same patriotic
distinction.
Had the case been reversed-had a
southern man and a democrat been
the appointing power, would there
have been the same inspiring display
of craftsmanship and generosity? 1t
has never been matched in American
history.
For these qualities that challenge
admiration and that preserve theiI
purity free from the bigotry and
temptation of partisanship and sec
tionalism, Mr.. Taft deserves high
tribute.
We cheerfully accord it, with the
added hope that the New Year will
bring him full need of happiness ant
tranquility, and of all those spiritua
and material blessings to which, as &
big, broad, patriotic American either
he is SO abundantly entitled-Atlanti
