LADY MACBETH LOVES. CHOPS
Butcher Attributes Genius of Artist
and Actress to Fact They Eat
His Meat.

1t is not altogether easy to imagine
a Lady Macbeth eating chops Yet
her greatest impersonator got her in
spiration from them, if one may rely
on an altogether delightful author
ity. On certain occasion, writes Mr.
e. V. Lucas in his recent book, "The
Second Post" the painter Hayden
paid his butcher. who reciprocated by
expressing great admiration for the
artists painting of Alexander"
Quite alive, sir!" said the butcher
Il am glad you think so." said the
artist
''Yes. sir; but as l have often said
to my sister. you could not have paint
ed that picture, sir, if you had not eat
my meat, sir"
Very true, Mr., Sowerby"
"Ah, sir. have fancy for genus.
sir"
Have you. Mr. Sowerby?"
Eyes. sir. Mrs Siddons. sir has
eat my meat, sir Never was such
woman for chops. sir. All. sir. she
was a wonderful crayture."
"She was, Mr. Sowerby"
''Ah, sir, when she used to act that
there character-but Lord. such
head, as l say to my sister-that
there woman. sir, that murders
king between EN-"
"Oh, Lady Macbeth"
"Ah, sir, that's it-Lady Macbeth
used to get up with the butler behind
her carriage when she acted. and
used to see her looking quite wild,
and all the people quite frightened.
Aha, my lady says l. If it wasn't
for my meat. though. you wouldn't
be able to do that! Youths Com

AS the Whittier hearing pro-
crosses it becomes more and
more evident that the animus
back of it all is desire to re-
lieve P. NJ. Ringdahl and G.. E.
VaSaly of 1heir official scalps.
WhoSever idea this is, it reflects
no credit on the originator. True,
both gentlemen are democrats,
but it does seem as though that
awful crime might be cOndOned,
at least until their terms expire
by limitation. To The Herald
it seems that Minnesota would
suffer a great misfortune were
she to lose the services of either
or both the gentlemen in ques-
tion. AS to Whittier. if he has
Mt the sense to quit he ought to
be fired; for as long as he stays
there his presence is menace

tuition. even though he be a

SIMPSON RESIGNS

Attorney General George T.
Simpson on Thursday resigned
his office to take effect Jan. 1
next, and his assistant, Hon.
Lyndon Smith, will succeed him.
Mr.. Simpson enters law part
nership in Minneapolis. In his
letter of resignation Mr.. Simp-
son, among other things, says:
We're | a rich man, or even
one whom a convenient con-
science would permit to profit by
public office, a different situation
might fairly present itself; for
in that event [ should proceed
careless alike in so far of public
conscience or remuneration"
1t is refreshing, in these days
of off-color puolic servants, to
hear a man say that he will not
sacrifice conscience to profit by
public Office. The big marble
pile on capitol hill shelters
plenty of the other kind, greatly
to the dishonor OF the common
wealth. And when Mr.. Simp-
son says what he does, he is
clearly within the bounds Of
truth, as is borne out by his Off
cial record.
Mr.. Simpson also reads the
signs Alright when he says that
the time will surely come to any
office holder when he will be
relegated to private life, either
justly Or unjustly, citing to prove
his contention the cases of Dun
nell and Window. The case of
William Window, who was de-
feated by the basest political
trickery in the history of Mime
sota-and that is saying a good
deal-was a pitiful one. Many
good men have held Office for
years only to find themselves in
their old age relicts on the sea of
political chicanery. These men,
had they devoted t h e same
amount Of ability to a profession,
could have been independent
financially long before gray hairs
appeared on their brows.
Politics and office holding are
good things to let alone and Mr..
Simpson is wise in acting upon
his knowledge before it is too
late. He has done the state
some service and will long be
held in esteem by all right
thinking citizens.

Not all preachers think only
of themselves and of the heathen,
as is witnessed by the eXhorta-

an appeal for. funds, exclaimed:

country papers need money a
great deal more than do the

with equal propriety: Il don't

The Herald'S recent editorial |
opinion that critics of the meth
DDS employed and the results OBJ
tanned by Billy Sunday, the base
ball evangelist, should be silent
until they can propose some
thing better and more effective,
finds echo in the manly breast of
the old man hereof of the
Mesaba Ore, who, in his last
weeks issue, remarked editorial
ly: A great many people are
prone to find fault with Billie
Sundays method of saving souls,
but the big fact remains that he
gets the conversions, and that is
the result sought. 1t takes a
heap of money to get Billie to
go dangling around amongst the
wabbly souls that need saving,
but when you come to tally off
soul for soul it don't cost near so
much as it does to save soul by
the ordinary old-fashioned
church methods. Ii a soul is
worth saving there should be no
limit placed on the game"

FULL MILK MEASURE
GIVEN IN THE DISTRICT
Not More Than One Per Cent Fail
to Conform to Standard,
Says Report.

I'm my judgment, out Of the total num-
Der Of milk bottles in use in the District
of Columbia not more than 1 per cent
fail to conform to the standard measure -
This Is the final paragraph Of long
report made to w. c. Haskell. superin-
tendent Of weights and measures, by his
assistant, George A. Howe, who has been
examining the size Of milk containers
throughout the District. In transmitting
the report to the Commissioners this
morning, Col. Haskell says:
This condition is just the reverse of
what it was eight or ten years ago. at
which time only very small percentage
Of the bottles measured standard"
Mr.. HOwe's report states:
Except in the case of two firms, one
of which is now out Of business, the
bottles having been purchased by the
firm which bought out the milk route.
I find that most Of the short milk bot
ties are those of blank bottles, that is,
bottles with no names stamped there
on
The report states that there is an evil
dent intention on the part of all dealers
to condemn the short measure milk bot
ties as fast as they are discovered.
The department Of weights and meas
ures is now sizing up the ice cream meas
ure situation and will report to the Com
missioners within q few days.
