Our Voices.


think our conversational soprano,
as sometimes overheard in the cars,
arising from group of young persons
who have taken the train at one of
our great industrial centers, for In
stance, young persons of the female
sex, we will say who have hustled in
full dressed, engaged in loud, strident
speech, and who, after free discussion,
have fixed on two or more double
seats, which having secured, they pro-
coed to eat apples and hand round
daguerreotypes-I say, l think the
conversational soprano, heard under
these circumstances, would not be
among the allurements the old enemy
would put in requisition were he get
ting up new temptation of st. An
thony.
There are sweet voices among us,
we all know, and voices not musical,
1t may be, to those who hear them
for the first time, yet sweeter to us
than any we shall hear until we listen
to some warbling angel in the over
ture to that eternity of blissful har-
monies we hope to enjoy, But why
should l tell lies? If my friends love
me, it is because / try to tell the
truth. l never heard but two voices
in my life that frightened me by their
sweetness.-Holmes.

What About Brain Food?
This Question Came Up in the Recent
Trial for Libel.

law of affinity, all things needed to manufac-
ture the elixir of life
Further on he says: The beginning and end
of the matter is to supply the lacking princi-
pie, and in molecular form, exactly as nature
furnishes it in vegetables, fruits and grain.
To supply defciencies-this is the only law of
cure"
The natural conclusion Is that II Phosphate
Of Potash is the needed mineral element in
brain and you use food which does not contain
it, you have brain flag because US daily loss is
not supplied
On the contrary, II you eat food known to
be rich in this element, you place before the
life forces that which nature demands for
brain-building.
In the trial a sneer was uttered because Mr..
Post announced that be had made years Of re-
search in this country and some clinics OF
Europe, regarding the effect Of the mind on
digestion OF food
81. we must be patient with those who
sneer at facts they know nothing about
Mind does not work well on brain that is
broken down by lack Of nourishment-
A peac sful and evenly poised mind is neces-
gary to good digestion
Worry, anxiety, fear. hate. &c, &c, directly
interfere with or stop the flow Of Ptyalin, the
Digestive juics OF the mouth. and also inter-
fere with the flow OF the digestive juices OF
stomach and pancreas
Therefore the mental state Of the individual
has much to do (more than Euspected) with
digestion.

Had Money In Lumps.

Charles H. Rosenberg of Bavaria
had Jumps on his shoulders, elbows,
and hips when he arrived here from
Hamburg on the Kaiserin Auguste Vic
toria. IL fact, there was a series Of
smaller Jumps along his spine, much
like mountain range, as 1t Is present
ed on a bas-relief map.
The Jumps were about the size Of
good Oregon apples, and as Rosen-
berg passed before the immigration
doctor for observation the doctor said
softly to himself, See that lump"
Then he asked Mr.. Rosenberg to step
aside.
You seem like a healthy man"
said the doctor, "but cannot pass you
until ] know the origin of those Jumps
on your body" "Ah, 1t is not sick
ness" laughed the man from Bavaria.
Those swellings is money"
Taking off his coat he broke open a
sample lump and showed that 1t con-
tanned $500 in American bank notes
He informed the doctor that he had
$11 900 in all, with which he was go
Ing to purchase an apple orchard in
Oregon.
He was admitted to the country

The LEAGUE Of Politeness.

The League of Politeness has been
formed in Berlin. 1t aims at inculcat-
ing better manners among the people
of Berlin. 1t was founded upon the
initiative Of Fraulein Cecelie Meyer,
who was inspired by an existing or
ganizaCion in Rome. In Difference to
the parent organization the Berlin
league has chosen the Italian motto,
PRO gentilezza." This will be en-
blazoned upon an attractive little
medal worn where Germans are &C
customed to wear the insignia of or
ders. The idea is that a GLANCE at
the 'talisman" will annihilate any in
clination to indulge IN bad temper or
discourteous language. ANY polite
person" is eligible for membership.

Fidelity TO Parole

Judge Grain of the Court of Gen.
eral Sessions has just held a recep-
ton more worthy OF note than any
ball, banquet or other high function
OF the season. 1t was held in his
courtroom at night. In response to
It's summons came 1T men and wom-
en-, some old, some young every one
of whom was victor over some form
OF temptation an example of what
human faith can do TO help human
weakness to redeem itself and be
strong.
Each OF the company had been con-
victed Of some first offense against
the law, and each had been permitted
to go out on parole Of future good
behavior. Each had kept the faith.
The word was as good as a bond.
Those who might have gone down in
the struggle had found a way to rise
and fight again. They were all able
to report good work done and bright
prospects ahead.
Time was when no one was trusted
on his word save men of high degree.
Fidelity TO parole was deemed
princely virtue. Perhaps it is. There
was nothing in Judge Grains recep-
ton to disprove It,

LOCK NEGRO IN BANK SAFE
West Virginia Officers Thwart Mob
Seeking to Ly ch Prisoner
Troops Called Out.

Weston, w. Va.-Willianl Furby, a
negro, for hours Was between two
lires-death at the hands of mob
or suffocation in the iron vault of
the express Office at the local railway
station. Outside the little building
a crowd of several hundred persons
waited from afternoon until late in
to the night, demanding the life Of
the prisoner for alleged assaults upon
and an attempt to murder Miss Flora
Anglin, daughter of a prominent
farmer.
While the mob waited large
squad of special deputies and the
sheriffs guarded the express Office
and kept the negro locked in the
large express safe, where he had
little air to breathe. For hours
the crowd waited, but for want of
a leader it failed to move with sufi-
cient force to dislodge the deputies
and take possession of the express
room. They stormed the place sew
eral times, breaking all the windows
and forcing open the doors, but were
unable to gain access to the safe.
An order was issued calling the
state militia to the scene on special
trains.

All Need the Earth.

There is an Antaeus in every one

needs the EARTH" says Henry Dem
Arrest Lloyd in his posthumous book
"A grandmother was spreading before
the vision of beloved child picture
OF the beauties Of heaven with its
gates of pearl and its pavements of
gold. What said the scornful boy,
unpactivated, no mud?' There spoke
the real philosopher. We are earth
animals, and we need contact with
all the aspects of nature, human ma
ture, and other nature. They who
feed wholly on white bread and the
tenderloin and the sweetness and
light of the best people, art for the
arts sake, cannot get phosphates
enough and soon develop the ricketts,.
The man l heard say he liked to eat
with the common people once IN
while, the woman you heard say that
she thought 1t was her duty to as
ISOLATE with the middle class, confess
the approach of extinction. They are
losing touch with the source of all per
sonal and social power"

The per capita wealth of tie Indian
is approximately $3.50, that for other
Americans is only little more than
$1,000. The lands owned by the In
dams are rich in oil, timber and other
natural resources of all kinds. Some
OF the best timber land in the United
States is owned by Indians.
The value of their agricultural lands
runs up in the millions The ranges
which they possess support about $780,
600 sheep and cattle. owned by lessees,
bringing in revenue of more than
S272,000 to the various tribes besides
providing feed for more than 100000
head of horses, cattle, sheep and goats
belonging to the Indians themselves.

In the United States are on Indian

New Process of Staining Glass.

The art of coloring glass has been
lost and rebound, jealously guarded
and maliciously stolen so many times
in the history of civilization that It
seems almost impossible to say any
thing new on glass staining Yet a
process has been discovered for ma
king the stained glass used in windows
which is a departure from anything
known at the present time What the
Venetians and the Phoeniciaps knew
Of 1t we cannot tell
The glass first receives It's design in
mineral colors and the whole is then
fred in heat so intense that the col
oring matter and the glass are indis-
solubly fused. The most attractive
feature of this method is that the sur
face acquires a peculiar pebbled char
acter In the heat, so that when the
glass is In place the lights are delight
fully soft and mellow.
In making large window in many
shades each panel is separately mould
ed and bent and the sections are as
sembled In a metal frame.

apartments of Mr.. Robin. He was in
great agony from kidney trouble and
it was plain to be seen that he was
out of his mind. We could not get

SPORTMAN'S ASSN.
URGES CHANGES
WILL SEND COMMITTEE BEFORE
NEXT LEGISLATURE-TW
OBJECTS IN VIEW.
REBH0Lz PREPARES LIST
Ask That NONRESIDENT Fishing IL
cense Be Increased SIS at Least, as
There Are More Fish Caught by
Non-Residents Than Resld ents.

Madison.-The Wisconsin Hunters
and Fishers association will send a
committee before the next legislature
to advocate changes In the game and
fish laws.
Secretary E. B. Rebholz, 495 Jeffer-
son street, has prepared list OF these
changes and the reasons why the more
important of them are advocated. Mr..
Rebholz said:
Two great objects are in view
First, we wish to give Wisconsin hunt
ers the most sport that is consistent
with the proper protection of our
game. Secondly. we want to see game
laws in Wisconsin that are made by
and for the many and not for the few
alone. And incidentally, especially in
the matter of deer hunting, we believe
that something must be done to put a
stop to the annual slaughter of human
beings" The association considers
suggestions from hunters.
I'VE are contemplating, he said,
asking for the following changes:
1.-THE nonresident fishing license
should be increased to at least SIS. AS
1t is today, there are more game fish
caught by nonresident fishermen
than by Wisconsinites. The license
would pay the bounty advocated on
rough fish, and would pay, too. for re-
stocking our lakes with game fish.
Fishing parties in the north, it should
be remembered, live almost entirely
on game and on fish from our north
ern lakes.
"The pike. plckerel and bass season
should open at the same time, May Is,
and run until March 1. Under the
present law, If bass are caught be-
tween May rs and June they cannot
be taken home, but must be thrown
back into the water. Yet bass will
bite during that period, and If the
hook Injuries their gills they are GER
tain to die"
