FINE MORAL LESSON.

II isn't so long ago since the 4hie stick was introduced into politics and public affairs The "big stick represented a spirit of ruthless over riding, spirit of getting results al all hazards, spirit far removed from Democracy.
 But "the big stick was popular for it's moment, just like any other thing has moment of popularity reform for instance. The people ap- plauded and lauded the disciple of the big stick Theodore Roosevelt. probably for no better reason than Roosevelt clubbed right and left with his stick, and got away with it.
 People began to book on Roosevelt as the "stick man" who could do others as he pleased to do them, but who could never be done. That made him an inestimably large man in the eyes of many
 Theodore, like other less conspicu- ous disciples of himself who thrust themselves through a reform hedge with "big stick" cry and waver, was getting away splendidly with his stunt until the 8big stick" encountered a steam roller"
 Don't plead ignorance. Slangy as the expressions are, they are purely typical of the big men and biz things, and typically pure of American pol itics just now.
 Big brainy men stand about street corners~and curbs and in offices and wonder whether the big stick or the steam roller will survive" States manship, public policies, world condi- tons, none have any place in the prophecy of the situation.
 There was quite an evenness of opo portunity for the verdict as between these stick-roller influences until Monday. Then the stick-man began to lose that nerve he had exhibited when he was cracking others over the heads He Is crying fraud and asking for square deal. His heels are under the steam roller. He sees himself submerged. He is gone. And, Knight of the Big Stick, though he De, he didn't have the courage to stand the gaff, as they say on the curb, and lose without squawk
 He is crying for fair play. His blubbering importantly is a joke to some, and is disgusting to others. He is in the attitude of the big bully who has battered men and women about all his life, until some one comes along, twists him across ths horoscope. lands him in a corner, anu instead of taking his defeat like a man. cries over the situation.
 This Roosevelt would have gone into history with a lot bigger name if he hadn't let out sQuawk Under present conditions there is much speculation as to the future Wm Roosevelt bolt and continue to fight after Taft receives the Republican nomination, or will Roosevelt set out on the steps of the convention hall and cry out his defeat, blubbering of unfair play" as he reviews that he went down under a steam roller?
 And He moral Is that there is al- ways squawk when one of those clustering big sticks gets what is coming to him. The quiet fighter meets his reyerses quietly. The blus- tering. blatent leader dies in the throes of 8 heartrending squawk.

USE OF MOURNING BORDERS
There Aso Few Got Ru.ea Bus fndlt|
s:dusl Tasse Practically %.
esdes the Question


The average person chooses .lex
mourning borders BY Individual tasta
rather than. by rule and rarely
changes the width until second raoufns
Ing
Good taste avoids the flaunting OF
grief and rarely eountenanees bor4
der wider than 4 quarter OF an inch,
even for widow. Even this is a trifie
vide: three sixteenths OF an inch ID
better width for widows, parents
or children, and an eight of an inch
for sister or brother.
The paper used is dead white linen
Of plain weave and lusterless. It Is
had form to have a mourning border
on striped or fancy paper. even
though the color Is kept white. Where
transparent paper is liked, as for
foreign correspondence or to save
postage, besides the border there Is
separate lining of black tissue pa
per for each envelope.
Addresses and monograms ara
often stamped in unre1ieved black.
Some persons prefer them embossed
in relief without color, especially II
there be telephone and telegram num-
bers In addition TO the address. When
these are all in black they look less
overpowering if a miniature receiver
and telegraph pole and lines are used
instead OF the word telephone or tele-
gram.
AZ mourning borders are expensive,
| the stationery. of grief is costly. It
can rarely be had by the pound as
other papers, but sometimes is cheap
ar by the box, containing several
qIires AS there Is usually a reduc.
ton for getting large quantity, It
pays to lay IN supply.
Correspondence cards carry the
same borders as writing paper. When
there are no engraved acknowledg,
ments these cards are quite large
enough for few words OF apprecia-
ton. Sometimes sentence is writ,
ten across the top Of the visiting
card.
Black bordered envelopes to fit the
visiting card should be bought by the
hundred, as the card will do social
duty during the entire period Of

HAS A LARGE VOCABULARY
Nunbsr Of Words Used by Small
Child VIII surpriae One who
Is Not c cIose Observer.


How many words does the ordinary
child know7 Fifty? Wrong. A hun
dred? Wrong again. Five hundred,
for & wild guess? A little nearer, but
not much. The truth is that people
underestimate the number OF words
their children can speak
Take paper and pencil, follow the
child for several days, several weeks
putting down every new word that Il
uttered. You'll find out some thingi
that viii surprise you. And when the
word child is used, It does not refer
to a boy or girl of seven or eight, but
one of three.
An investigation recently made By
following a child at that age and not
ing every word that was used, showed
that it had memorized LII different
words. They covered practically
everything with which the child came
in contact and were words the child
had never heard before.
Another investigation of words used
by children between l year and 1e
months old showed that the lowest vo
cabulary that was reported included
the use of 60 words The highest was
232 words. From two years on, the
vocabulary of child increases rapid.
ly,. until at three years the average
child has vocabulary of at least 1,0Of
words.

Forced to Move
 Before September 1
We Must Make Room for Material to be Used in Our Contracting
 Business.

This time of the year we are crowded for space to store fixtures and material to be installed on work under construction.
 Gas stoves and ranges take up much floor space and we have concluded to move our entire stock of GARLAND GAS STOVES AND RANGES before September 1st. During the month of August only we will sacrifice any stove in stock at actual cost at the factory.
 This will give you a very rare op- poraunity to buy one of the celebrated Garland Stoves or Ranges at lower price than they have ever beer sold and lower than they ever will be again
 We arc not going to quit selling the Garland Ranges. Not by any means.
 There are too many dealers that would like to get this agency. The Garland Stoves and Ranges are recognized the superior of any made.
 We have two hotel or large board ing house ranges that we will sell at specially low figure.
 Call and examine the line. Let us show you the many ways in which the Garland is so vastly superior to the others.
 Let us refer you to the great num- Der of expert and fastidious house keepers in Hot Springs that will tell you of the happy results they have ob- taied by using the Garland Stoves or ranges.
 They are the only fool proof stoves on the market. Perfectly~safe in the hands of the most ignorant servant.
 Remember this offer only holds good for the stoves and ranges in stock and during the month of August. After September 1, the regular price will be maintained. We will not order extra stoves at the price now being of- fered.

ENGLISH UNloNlsTs WIN.

Londons Aug. 9.-The capture of a seal in the Bye-elections at northwest Manchester yesterday, when Sir John Handles, unionist, defeated Gordon Hewart, liberal, caused a remarkable spirit of jubilation in the unionist party. It Is the eighth seat the Hn- ionists have won from the radicals since the general election. and all ef forts to explain away the liberal de feats fail to dissipate the depression on the liberal side, which is enhanc ed by the resignation of the master of Elibank, who organized the sue cessful liberal election campaigns and the rebellious attitude of the labor party which threatens to put 150 can didates in the field at the next gen eral election.
