The tuberculin test, now the sub
ject of interest among stockmen every
where in Wisconsin, is a very simple
indicator of the presence of tubercu-
losis in animals. If tuberculous COW
has a small quantity of tubercuIin in
troduced beneath the skin, a tempo
rary fever will result, which can be
detected by taking the temperature of
the animal; a healthy animal shows
no such fever.

Consolation,

A little girl of thirteen or so foundl herself one day possessed of new emotion-a desire to be pretty. She. struggled with it, but finally went to the long mirror in the hall and for the! first time in her life looked at herself critically from head to foot. She saw what most girls see at thirteen-a lanky creature. mostly legs and arms. hands and feet. It hurt her, and she went out of doors to think it over Thought resulted in tears. and in tears she was found half an hour later by her particular chum. boy near Ter own age. Anxious inquiry as to why she was crying induced her to speak
 'Oh. Harold" she walled. i've just looked at myself in the glass, and Pm so homelyv'
 The boy was puzzled. but sympa- thetic, and made an effort at consola- tion. He looked at her minute, then, awkwardly patted her, saying sooth- ingly:
 Not homely, Alice; just funny look ing."-New York Times.

BOOKER I. STILL LAID UP FROM
 BEATING HE GOT
Talk of Settling the Case Out of COurt-Lawyers Hold
 Conference
lSpecial from United Press. )

New York, March 21-With Booker T. Washington still in his apartments in the Hotel Manhattan, today, suff- ering from the beating he received, Sunday night, at the hands of Henry A. Ulrich, the white man who accused him of accosting his wife, his attor- ney said he hoped the negro educator would be able to get to court, this af- ternoon, to prosecute his assailant.
 There were rumors. early today, that the case might be settled out of court. Many friends of pr. Washington were inclined to think that Ulrich had been justified to some extent in resenting the presence of the Tuskogee presi- dent, who admitted entering the hall way of the Ulrich home. While pr. Washington considered he had a leg itimate errand here, his friends say that Ulrich, not knowing who he was, might naturally have assumed that he was a negro loiterer.
 Washington's lawyer, Milford H. Smith, has had two conferences with James I. Moore, attorney for Ulrich, at which he is said by Moore to have tried to find out the nature and extent of the testimony to be given by Ulrich and his wife. Following these confer ment had been reached whereby Wash ington would drop the case but this could not be confirmed.
 It developed, today that D. c. Smith auditor of Tuskogee, for whom pr. Washington says he was search ing, Sunday night, maintains only on office in this city. It is at 32 Broad way and Smiths residence is at Mont clair, N. J. At his home, the care- taker is in charge and said, today, that MT. Smith was at TuskOgee and has been there for month.
 Dr. Washington insisted, today, that persons who saw him on the street near the U1rich home, Sunday night, misunderstood his purpose.
 "When I left Tuskogee two weeks ago" said the doctor, 'I thought MT. Smith would have finished the work he was on in about two weeks. car ried in my mind that he would be found in the apartment of some ac- quaintance near the house I visited and I was looking for him when the affair happened"
 If the case is not settled by the at torneys it was said by Ulrich, early today, that he would demand that the court entertain his charge of illegal entry against the negro educator. He said that he had five witnesses to prove his allegation.

Doesn't Know Her Ace.

There is a glaring phase of unfair ness in the position of the two sexes, despite all our struggles for the suf- frage. A woman still dreads to tell her age. no matter how youthful she may look, while as long as man looks youthful he is generally willing to admit and even to boast of how many milestones he has passed. There is at least one father who understood
 this problem in time and who gave his daughter a fair chance in life by never letting her know how old she was. He realized at her. birth that 8 time would come when she would not want to tell her age, and he spared her the humiliation of having to prevari- cate. so she was never told either her age or the place where she was born. and there were no birth records pre- served ;n the family.-New York World.

CALLS BRYAN'S.
 PLACE SECURE
Kern Says Nebraskan Will Always Head His Party's Councils. ~

Lincoln, Neb.. March 21-Senator Owen, in his speech at the Bryan birthday dinner last night, praised Arizona and her proposed constitution He said the people had established a constitution providing for the rule of the people, through the initiative, the referendum and the recall. Such a government was safe against cOnSpir- acy, against oiigarchy, against corrup- tion and fraud, which have honeycomb- b. ed and undermined the foundation of other governments In the history ot man, he said. He praised each one of these three provisions in detail, assert ing that they assured stability. Sena- tor-elect Kern of Indiana said:
 '"rhe future of W. J. Bryan is se- cure. Whether he shall ever again be called on to lead the Democratic hosts is a question of little moment to him for. by reason of his achievements in behalf of the people, he has so en- deared himself to the great rank and file of the American Democracy that wherever Bryan sits in the Democratic councils of the future there will be the head of the table. Other men may find even higher favor among men who work at politics as a trade and among those who sit in the seats of the mighty, but Bryan's strength will be in the fact that in millions of Amer ican homes and by millions of the true and earnest men and women by whose endeavors this country has been made great he will always be regard ed as champion and friend, the fearless foe of wrong and oppression every where.
 There are almost six and a half millions of men who so appreciate his unselfish work of the last f1ftten years that they will see to it that neither jealousy prejudice nor petty aninlos- ity shall ever for a moment prevail against him.
 ''There is no longer need of a discus sion of the tariff question. The shroud of mystery with which that question has been enveloped and obscured for a third of a century has been removed, and it stands out now as a mere ques- tion of taxation. When our adversaries in the last campaign conceded the tar if is a tax burden which rests upon the consumer they conceded away the whole cause of protection. For the tar if question, thus stripped of mystery is only as to whether this Government should take from the earnings of the people more tax money than it needs for governmental purposes when eco- nomically administered"

DRUG VICTIM GIVES
 BAIL OF $2OO FOR USE
 OF DOCTORS NAME

Harry Crawford, 35 Tulip street, posted bail of $200 with Clerk Burnes of the city court today. for his ap- pearance in court tomorrow morning. No specific charge has been filed against him as yet, but he is wanted in connection with the alleged forgery of the name of Dr. M. J. Greenstein on a prescription calling for cocaine. Crawford is regarded as a user of the drug, and today when his plight be- came known to Dr. Greenstein he was not anxious to have the charge against him pressed.
 Crawford's arrest was the result of a badly arranged plan to get cocaine. He sent a boy to Leverty's Park ave- nue store with the prescription. The boy was refused the stuff, and when Crawford appeared. Leverty turned him over to the police. Crawford said he bought the drug for use in treat ing a sick horse.

 Tacoma, Wash, March 21-The vot- CTS of this city are casting their ball. lots today, in the. first referendum cleo tion in the city's history.

Successful in this venture, the Royal Arch set in motion the new plan of action.
