BARONPHALLAS47115.
Record 2:lS IA Pacing. Trial
 2:28 3-4 Trotting.
Handsome. Absolutely Sound, Dark Bay With Black Points; 1S.3
 Hands High; foaled 1905

This colt has shown phenomenal speed, considering the amount of train- ing he has had and his breeding should appeal to the most critical require ments. By one Of Baron Wilkes best sons, Oakland Baron, 2:09i, the sensa- tional colt trotter and q Kentucky Futurity winner himself. Sire of thirty-one trotters and nine pacers in the list including Lady Gail Hamilton 2:06i, Winner of the Hartford Futur- ity; Rhythmic, 2:O6s, winner of the NJ. x NJ. and Bonner Memorial stakes. and Baron DeShay, 2:0sl. The Oakland Barons sold at higher average than any other consignment in the last Midwinter Horse Auction at Madison Square Garden, New York; Oakland Flobaf topping the sale at $500 In point Of size, conformation, early and extreme speed, the Baron Wilkes are in class by themselves; but Baron Phallas does not depend alone on his sires side for noted ancestry. His dam, Victoria Phallas, 2:154, a peerless racing mare of her day, won all of her races (nine starts) the first year out, and the second year she won three out | of four races, meeting with an accident in the last race, which permanently retired her from the turf. Victoria PhallaS was much faster mare than her record indicates, as she was driven full mile in 2:Il, last half in l:O4, quarter in 30 seconds. Her sire, Phallas. 2:l34, by Dictator, is we'll remembered champion trotting stal lion. Baron Phallas' second dam, Victoria McGregor, 2:l94, by Robert McGregor, the monarch of the home stretch and sire of Cresceus, 2:O23, was out of Victoia, by Dictator. Can imagination picture a more intensely bred horse? In the combination they have produced size, beauty of confor- nation and early and extreme speed. With but forty days work, in his four-year-old form, an amateur weigh ing 260 pounds drove him mile at the Wheaton (Ill.) track, timed by several experts, in 2:28a. As a five year-old he wanted to pace, so was set to work at this gait, and with about sixty days handling raced to his mark of 2:lSi, at Portage, Wis. He stepped quarters in puplic in 32 seconds and a half in l:05a, which was announced at the time in the Horse Review. He will be worked both ways of going, first at the pace, and will without doubt take low mark at both gaits.
 Breeding, conformation, size and speed are very necessary in the make up Of any successful sire. Baron Phal- las has all of these requirments, coup led with a gait and disposition that are faultless. As sire he has three colts coming two years old, only one of which has been broken, and this one shows extreme speed and will no doubt be heard from during 1911.
 He will make the season of i9l1 at Dr. Aldrich's Stable, Forrest City Ark, on the following terms: S2O to insure mare in foal; SIP by season; $S by single service. Mares must be return ed regularly, otherwise will be held for insurance money.

Speaker Bakers stand for six days
pay to House employees for six days
work may not be popular with the
employees but it goes well with the gem
oral public, which is not accustomed
to receiving or giving pay for days of
idleness. and who cannot see why the
fact that 81 is public not private
money that is now being expended
should make any difference in the
matter. The speaker undoubtedly has
the situation sized up correctly Even
on the basis Of six days week the
employees would be receiving good
wages, more than all or most Of them
ever got before, and the fact many
stand ready to take their places if they
don't like the slx-day remuneration
plan shows that the jobs without Sun
day pay are attractive. But so far the
employees haven't said anything about
quitting Speaker Baker is going to
stand pat until the supreme court
hands down a decision in the matter,
and We believe the people Of Michigan
will admire him for it.

PICKERING SHOULD CEASE.

An interesting feature of the Skin
mishing between Gov. Osborn and GER
tain members of the legislature. is the
reiterated declarations of the legisla
tors that nothing they do is to be con-
strued as an act of hostility towards
Gov. Osborn and his policies. There's
a reason, says the Lansing Republican
Journal. The senators and representa-
tives are aware that the people OF
Michigan elected Gov. Osborn with
full knowledge of his ideas relative to
the State government, and a warm be-
lief that he had the right idea and the
right platform. They may concede the
right to the legislators TO have views
Of their own, but they do not concede
the right to hold those views as suffi-
cient reason to warrant them in stand
ing between Gov Osborn and the put
ting into practical operation of his
progressive policies.
Michigan is somewhat overloaded
with administrative and supervisory
machinery. Gov. Osborn has an
nounced his plan to do away with
some of the surplus and the people ex-
pect the legislature to give him every
assistance. The members are hearing
from home to that effect, and will hear
in more emphatic language if they do
not adopt that standard in deciding
upon their course i'm legislative mat
ters. There may be proper differences
Of opinion as to Gov. Osborn's methods.
but they are beginning to realize that
the people will not approve of bicker-
ing over small things, as a means of
putting forward an excuse for failing
TO advance legislative business. In
other words, they would all better be
sure they are not taking some unnec-
.ssary reason for an excuse to prevent
lction which the people want.

ALL MEN ARE CREATED EGGS
aIlenable Something's of Which
Nothing Can Deprive Them.

An ego is a Latinized I. All men are
created egos and endowed by their
creator with certain inalienable some
things of which neither statute, ukase
sdict, Injunction, beggar. magnate
book agent nor promoter can deprive
them. He who steals my purse steals
trash, but he who fllches from me my
ego takes that of which he already has
enough and makes me not at all.
Women without votes have egos, and
strangely enough. would still have
tnem If they secured the votes. Hence
egos are not a political issue.
An ego is what a man is when he
has nothing and is nothing else: that
is to say, he is then first person
singular and no particular gender
An ego is neither soul. body, spirit.

moral nor pathological. A criminal has
just as much ego as a parson and no
more. Some egos are better than
Others-chiefy our own.-Life.

FRIGHTENING A DARK ROOM
Dark Woodwork Should Not Be Tol.
Grated and Gloomy Paper Should
Be Avoided.

In nearly every city house there Is
always sure to be one dark and
gloomy room. IT casts its depression
upon all who enter it, and yet one
Is often at loss as to what should
be done to dissipate the lugubrious eff
feet.
II should be dealt with ruthlessly
White paint and enamel should be
used with a generous hand Dark
woodwork should not be tolerated,
and dull or gloomy paper should be
avoided. Hang the room in a paper
of sunny yellow hues. put up only cur.
tains of thin net. and decorate your
walls with pictures framed in white
and gold and silver gray frames.
Many mirrors, If possible should be
used, for they aid wonderfully In
Frightening a dark room, but thew
must not be hung too high. as they
will only reflect the ceiling, while they
should catch the cheerful flame of an
open fire and repeat its CLEAN.
No one thing is more successful In
destroying the depressing atmos
phere of a room than an inside win
dow box. This box can be made at
tractive by a thin covering of brass
or copper that will add TO the bright
ness OF the room, and the plants
should be chosen with an eye to their
color
When the furniture in your dark
and depressing room has been covered
with gay cretonne and magazines
books and papers have been strewn
about, this room. which filled every
one with feeling of aversion and
discomfort, will become the favorite
