GOES WITH ACTRESS
WIFE TO Ranch
Wealthy Father Gives Him
This Start in Life

New Yor6 February 2l.-Drapar
Daughresy. who Tor years has had
nothing on his mind but time and
moaeg and has utilized both to haunt
the musical comedy theatres is going
to work On q Texas ranch
Not Of his own yolition by any
means, but because his show-girl wife
is leading him to it. She controls
the endowment dedicated by her hus-
bands millionaire father to the enter
prise of retaining the spendthrift
son to the ranks of useful citizens.
The couple boarded a Texas-bound
steamer today. Mrs. Daughtery held
a bag stuffed with $4,000 in bills. ORA
per followed her haltingly. On the
pier stood many sobbing members of
the musical comedy company of which
Mrs. Daughtery had been a member
The spectacle impressed them, as one
member expressed it, as "a stage mar
riage that is going to make good"
Mrs. Daughtery is known as one Of
the prettiest show girls in New York.
The couple took fashionable apart
ments and waited for Danghtary, ST.,
to call and forgive them after their
marriage This Father Daughtery
failed to do. A modest fiat was then
substituted for the hotel apartments.
and Mrs. Daughtery returned to work
on the stage. They lived on her
salary.
Meanwhile the elder Daughtery
made some inquiries about his daugh-
and learned much good Of
her. He came on to New York this
week, met her and liked her. To-
gether they began to plan. First they
tried to put Young Daughtary to work,
but he failed to find a job Then he
evolved a new scheme and laid it
down to his son, as follows:
III send you to Texas, but Dessq
will handle all the money. The most
you get, Draper, is a chance to make
good on one of my ranches. You are
given no voice in the matter. Dessa
and have reached a decision"
So the couple are now on their
way to Texas.

WILL We JOIN OUR
FATE With CANADA'S
Many Believe Uncle Sam
Courts Queen Of Shows
(By William T. snaad.j

London. February 21-We are ali
much amused by the fuss which has
been made by Champ Clark's facetious
remark that reciprocity with Canada
opens the door to annexation. Annex
alton is bad word Assimilation, per-
meation, observation-disclosures of these
words would have been better. To
annex means to take what does not
belong to you, with or without the con-
sent of the annexed, and so far from
resenting the idea that closer political
union will naturally follow from a
greater commercial intercourse, there
is nothing more devoutly to be de-
sired.
We are so sure of Canadian loyalty
that we encourage rather than discour-
age every increase in her intimacy
with the states, whether that be COM
mercial, judicial or political What
we desire, after the tiff of 40 years
ago, is that John Bull shall remarry
Miss Columbia, or if you prefer it,
Uncle Sa mshould WOO and we'd Madam
Britannia. Now Canada is a cosy par
Tor for counting.
Ties That Bind Nations.
Secretary KnoX's eloquent words as
to the ties that unite Canada and the
United States, might be applied almost
without alteration of word to Great
Britain and the United States. When
he says there is not the slightest pos
sibility that racial and moral union
will involve any political change, he
goes too far, for as other ties multi
ply political changes will become nee
essary. A general arbitration treaty
is forerunner of many such.
Dreamers are already talking of the
United States of the World, and it is
not such far cry to the United States
of the English Speaking World, anC
Clark's speech, although intended as
a jest, has set peoples inds moving
in the right direction
Remember that it was Cecil Rhodes
the high priest of British imperial
ism, who declared. that he attached 81
much Importance to the Anglo-Ameri
can union. that if it could not be OBJ
tanned otherwise than by applying
for admission as states to be federated
with the American public, he would
apply for admission.

PURELY VEGETABLE
THE ONE SAFE BLOOD REMEDY

1t is a generally recognized fact
that medicines taken from the botan-
ical kingdom are better adapted to
the delicate human system, and safer
in every way than those composed of
strong mineral mixtures. Among
the very best and safest of vegetable
preparations is S. S. S., blood med
cine made entirely of roots, herbs and
barks, in such combination as to
make it the greatest of all blood puri-
fers and the finest of all tonics.
S. S. S. does not contain the least
particle Of mineral in any form, and
is an absolutely safe medicine for any
one to use. While purifying the
blood, this great vegetable remedy
builds up every portion of the system.
S. S. S. cures Rheumatism, Catarrh,
Sores and Ulcers, Skin Diseases,
Scrofu1a, Constitutional Blood Dis
eases, and all impurities and morbid
conditions of the circulation. 1t is
perfectly reliable and safe for children;
and little ones who have been weak
ened with scrofulous affections or
other inherited blood troubles, can
take this mild vegetable remedy with
good results and without the slightest
danger. S. S. S. is unequalled as a
tonic; it invigorates every portion of
the system, and the healthy blood it
creates largely assists in overcoming
any arrangement of the stomach
and digestive system. If you need a
blood medicine you could do no better
than to take S. S. S. 1t has been in
use for more than forty years and is
still recognized as the best. Book on
the blood free to all who write.
