How to Make Love.

Learning the Art is the name Of a
delightful little love story written by
Joshua F. Crowell for our next Sunday
Magazin Indeed, the author claims that
it is a real textbook on love-making-if
the same circumstances should happen to
fit those needing to put it into practice.
OF course, there was rival, and Of
course the hero had to circumvent him,
even though the other was apparently
favored by the girl; but the way he did
it was novel and successful in every
way.

Bull Moose "Money Ridden"

Senator Myers pointed to Col. Roose-
velt's connection with George w. Per-
kins and other hackers Of the bull
moose candidate as proving that the
progressive party in no way will at
tempt to further the rule OF the people.
but on the face of it is a money ridden
political organization.
BARRING overconf1dence on the part
or democratic voters in this country.
Gov. Wilson will be elected" said the
speaker. Roosevelt has split the re-
publican vote. We democrats are or
gained, and 1 know that overcon-
fidence on our part is far more dan
gerous to US than the promises of
Roosevelt or all Of the money behind
Taft.
Il am from Montana, and think that
my state will go for Wilson. I feel
that the people of my state are dis
gusted with Roosevelt, and that the
Taft Roosevelt forces will kill each
other of. thereby putting Wilson to the
front"
The speaker said that Roosevelt will
advocate any doctrine which he thinks
will bring him votes. He also sar-
castically criticised President Taft for
his tariff policies.

EXEMPT FROM TAXATION
TOURING NATURAL LIFE''
Order Passed by Georgetown Corpor.
alton Council in Favor of
Noble Hurdle.

A search through the papers OF the late
Noble Hurdle of Georgetown has brought
to light document which shows that
Mr.. Hurdle was exempted from taxation
on his old home in Georgetown because
Of his services to the city. So far as Is
known, this is the only case on record
in the District where taxes have been
RENTED because of services to the public
by citizen. The paper was found by
Joseph F. Hurdle Of Thoroughfare, Va,
q great-grandson of Noble Hurdle.
Text of the Resumption Order.
1t reads as follows:
a resolution in favor of Noble Hurdle.
Whereas Noble Hurdle, the oldest
citizen of Georgetown, has for long
series of years rendered services to the
town by keeping the street in front of his
premises in thorough repair without cost
to the corporation:
Therefore, be it resolved. by the board
of aldermen and board of common coun-
Gil of the corporation of Georgetown. that
the tax collector be. and he Is hereby, in
structed to refrain from collecting taxes
on the present domicile of Noble Hurdle
during his natural life.
Approved, January u. 1871.

he Is tied to post and does not know

Senator Myers Estimate.
These were the descriptions in brief Of
the three leading candidates for the presi-
dency given last night by Senator Henry
L. Myers in an address before a mass
meeting of democrats in the Chevy Chase
library.
1.-THE republican party" said the sena-
tor, was born to abolish slavery. From
the very start its future existence de-
pended almost solely on its financial
backing from the wealthy. The capital
lists Tut up the first money and became
so entangled in the interests of the party
that after slavery was abolished the
party. though it had accomplished its
object, continued to exist as the organ of
finance.
The democratic party, with the rule
OF the people and the will of the Con-
sutution as its basic principles, was in
power almost all of the time from the
beginning of the United States to the
time OF the civil war. During that time
the country developed with steadiness
and yet marvellous rapidity. Practically
all OF our territory Wvs acquired under
democracy and our present institutions
were started
