at this mountain retreat. The hoboes
have a very dignifed name. They are
called by the monks Brother Chris
tophers," after the walking Saint
Christopher. The idea of utilizing the
services of the wanderers in return
for bed and breakfast originated with
Father Francis, one of the monks of
gathered in the hills at Graymoor,
near Garrison, KY, two years ago.
They were looking for a convenient
place to establish a chapel which
would serve the F'riars of the Atone
ment as an oratory. At the head Of
the pilgrimage was the Rev. John c..
Halves, an Anglican missionary from
the Bahamas who had been received
into the Catholic church. The CAPT
tai of the friars amounted to nil, but
they set to work with enthusiasm that
poverty could not dampen
A sand pit was discovered close to
a quarry and water and building ma
terial was at the disposal of the
monks. They established a temporary
home by telling trees and building a
log hut, sleeping in hunks built tier
above tier. Sympathizers in the neigh
borhood supplied the monks with a
few blankets. Those who had no blan-
kets slept as they could without them.
Most of the contributions, however,
went to the wayfarers who were guild
ed to this spot by a series Of rough
crosses placed from the base of the
summit of the Mount of the Atone
ment. At first the tramps were given
the hospitality of the place without
thought of return, but the happy
thought Of making them work for
their board came to one of the friars
and when the next tramp arrived he
was told that the time had come for
him to break the rule of the hobo fra
ternity regarding labor The hobo was
fed and lodged and the next day he
worked it out on the new chapel

WILSON NOTIFICATION.
Governor Will be Formally Informed
Of Nomination Aug. Refuses
to Take Issue With
Critics.

Sea Girt, N. j., July 8. 800 Governor
Woodrow Wilson and Senator-elect
Ollie James of Kentucky, who was
permanent chairman of the Baltimore
convention, have decided to have the
governor formally notified Of his nomi-
nation on the lawn of New Jerseys
Little White House. here at 2 o'clock
on the afternoon of Wednesday, Aug.
Z.
Mr.. James came up from Washing
ton and had a long talk with the nomi.
nee, during which he was requested
to name as late day as possible to
afford Governor Wilson to catch up
With his correspondence, now some
10000 letters and telegrams behind,
The speech of notification will be
short and the governors reply will
sound the keynote of the campaign.
Mr.. Wilson let it be known that he
would deal with the high cost of liy,
ing and the tariff which he regards as
the leading issues. He will include
reference to other planks of the plat
form also. Until that time, however
he will have little to say in reply tc
criticisms Of the platform by Theo
dore Roosevelt or anybody else His
speech of acceptance, which he will
shortly begin to draft, will be his first
public comment, he declared, upon
the party platform.
Every attempt to induce Governor
Wilson to take issue with any critics
of his failed. He discussed the high
cost of living as an issue, saying that
he regarded it as the leading issue
with the tariff at the heart of it, but
declined to comment upon Colonel
Roosevelt's utterances.
Mr.. James went to New York in
tending later to leave for Washington,
where he will write members of the
notification committee of the date set
for formally apprising Governor Will
son of his nomination. The com.
mittee will meet, he said, at the I'm.
perial hotel in New York on the morn
ing of August and come in body to
Sea Grit.

AIRMAN FALLS ON TENT.
Grand Forks Aviator MiracuIousIy
EScaneS Death

ESCapcS DcdCn.
Grand Forks, N. D., July Sired
Harlem, aviator of Grand Forks, who
had narrow escape from death at
Plentywood, Mont, is now in st. Mich
ael's hospital in this city recuperat-
ing from a ffty-foot fall in the Mon
tana town. Harlem had made an
ascent of about mile In the after
noon and when landing on the ground,
smashed several parts of the aero
plane. The machine was not repair
ed until after o'clock in the evening
and then the Grand Forks airman
scared away in the semi-gloom.
On this flight Harlem flew about ten
miles and was making a wide circle
to return to the starting point and
make his landing. Across the town
from the aviation field is network
Of phone wires stretching to the near
by hills and, coming at a rate of sixty
miles an hour Harlem's aeroplane
struck these wires, swapping them off
clean and overturned the fachine.
The jar and overturning of the aero
plane threw Harlem fully fifty feet
from the machine, and for few sec
onds it looked as though another
would be added to the list of air fatali-
ties, but Harlem fell squarely upon a
campers tent missing the main pole
by a very few inches. He rebounded
from the canvas, turned over several
times and was knocked unconscious
when he hit the ground.

REAL DENTISTRY is MODERN
Most Of the improvements Have
Been Brought About Within
the Last Century.

In some of the ruins of Egypt are
engravings representing man lying
on his back, while another is standing
over him pounding out tooth with
a rock. This is primitive dentistry,
and while it might seem to be severe,
yet, no doubt, it brought measure
of relief, otherwise such extreme
measures would not have been resort
ed to.
In China, it is said, when a man
goes to the native dentist for relief
from the toothache, it is the usual
procedure for the dentist to insert
his finger in the patients mouth, and,
on removing it, show him a worm
which he says he has withdrawn
from the tooth, and which was caus-
ing the ache. This procedure, so we
are told, usually stops the ache.
These primitive methods are a far
cry from the scientific attitude of the
profession today, yet most of the i'm
provement has been brought about in
the last 100 years
The causes of this rapid develop
ment have been many, the rapid
growth of knowledge in other lines
of work, the formation of dental col
leges, the invention and manufacture
Of useful instruments, and the scien-
tifc study Of the mouth and its dis
eases. NJ y
There is one other thing which has
brought about this marvellous growth,
which is perhaps more important
than all the other causes combined,
and that is the professional spirit, or
dental ethics, as 1t is sometimes
called.
Tt used to be the thing, if dem
fist made an improvement, to hide it
from his brother dentist SO that he
might reap the benefit alone. Many
q secret, or invention, has died with
the dentist originating it. In time
this custom was changed, and then
the profession began, to progress by
leaps and bounds Nowadays, if a
dentist discovers anything new that
| is good, he carries it to his society
and explains 1t to every one, so that
all may get the benefit. He goes to
the convention with one new idea and
brings back hundred, and both he
and the public are benefited. $

EDUCATION AND THE TEETH
School Authorities Now Recognize
the important Part Played by
Oral Hygiene.

school authorities are greatly inter
ested in various plans for improve
ment in the minds of backward pupils
by improving the condition of their
bodies Now they. have become inn
bued with the idea that clean mouths
mean healthy pupils, and the exam
nation of the teeth of school chill

sideration.
Investigation in Germany shows
that nearly SO per cent of the school

as a rule, is the school standing.
About 500 pupils in the schools OF
Ludlow, Mass, were recently exam
ined and the condition of the teeth
and mouth found most deplorable.
The most striking feature observed
was the neglect of dental cleanliness
and absence Of any evidence of den
tai treatment beyond few instances
in which teeth had been extracted.
Probably not more than three out of
one hundred possessed brushes, and
showed signs of using them regularly,
and these three were practically free
from decay. Bacterial deposits, tar,
tar, remains of food and every de-
gree of righteousness and poisoning
were evident.
Many children were suffering from
undue retention of temporary teeth
but still more from the premature
loss of them, showing the utter neg

The first permanent molar was in
variably badly decayed. Probably sc
per cent. would have to be treated OF
extracted. This molar is very confus
ing to parents and children, as il
comes before the temporary teeth are
shed and is therefore taken for one Of
the first set, and neglected from ig
norance.
1t is evident from this inspection
that something must be done. First
Of all, the public must be convinced
that such movement is for the pub

FEAR OF DEFEAT, CAUSE.
Roosevelt May Also Be Asked to Give
Way to Compromise Choice
for Sake of Har-

washington, july y. - A natlOn
wide movement to petition President
Taft to withdraw as Republican
presidential candidate is being back
I'D by a large number of Republican
office holders who feel that they face
defeat in November unless the breach
IN the party can be healed.
These men include members of con-
sress, members of state legislatures
that will elect United States senators,
state and county Office holders and
party candidates.
If the movement to petition Mr..
Taft to withdraw succeeds in gaining
any volume, it is said these same men,
tn the interest of party harmony, may
ask Colonel Roosevelt also to with
draw as a prospective candidate for
an Independent nomination and permit
q compromise selection of some man
agreeable to both factions.
1t is the desire Of the promoters of
reached before August S, when the
Roosevelt faction plans to hold con-
vention in Chicago.
The circulation Of petitions, it was
declared, would be made within a
week. It was said the movement
: would begin spontaneously in every
state.
The organizers now are circulating
blank forms of petitions and appoint
ing supervisors who, in turn, will en-
: gage canvassers to solicit the sigma
lures of Republican voters.
The authors of the plan expect to
offer to practically every Republican
voter in the United States a chance
to express his opinion Of Mr.. Taft's
candidacy, either by signing the petit
tion or rejecting It..
The movement is in the hands Of
several we'll known members of con-
gress. They are being aided by many
Of the extreme Roosevelt Republicans.
The enlistment of the national Pro-
has been sought and it was said that
Senator Dixons organization was will
ling to cooperate.
Information that the petitions were
to be put before the voters has just
leaked out.
No particular person is authority for
the statement and members of con-
gress concerned were unwilling to
stand sponsor for it until the move
ment was under way. ."
In the circulation of the anti-Taft
petitions an effort will be made to
get them signed by organization Re-
publicans and others who have stood
{. with the president as well as by citi-
Eens who have occupied neutral
ground.
There will be no special effort made
to get Progressive Republican sigma
lures as it is believed that to confine
the petitions to that faction would en-
compass the defeat of the movement.
The sponsors Of the plan say one
Of it's first results would be to let Mr..
Taft know if there are considerable
number of Republicans who believe
he should step aside in the interest Of
harmony.
