THE MOUTH

The mouth is the port of entry for
the human system, and also its organ
of publicity. Through the mouth we
take in food and water for another
hard days talking, and through the
mouth we also issue interviews, prom
ises, explanations, boasts, excuses,
apologies, appeals, denials, retorts,
courteous and fighting words.
The mouth is connected with the
'alimentary canal by the esophagus
and with the brain by some mystic
rious wireless telegraph line, which
is generally out of repair. The
mouth is the busiest part of the body,
because when it is not eating it has
to talk. Some men are able to do
both at the same time, but not in
such a manner as to give pleasure to
the spectators. Some mouths are
even required to work while their
owners are asleep. The fate of a
mouth which must talk all day, and
then put up very fair imitation OF a
sawmill all night, is indeed a sad one.
Some mouths are very large and
homely, wandering across the face in
a most disorderly and unattractiVe
way, while other mouths seem to have
been fashioned by an artist for the
sole purpose of being kissed, and are
so small and dainty and pretty that
it seems almost a sacrilege to require
their owners to poke potatoes and
hamburger steak and sauer kraut and
other comestibles into them. The
mouth is located just south of the
nose, and can be tightly closed when
necessary by means of the lower jaw.
This, however, is a piece of mechan-
ism which is very poorly understood
the mouth often remains open at the
most inopportune times, allowing
conversation to escape which should
have been safely bottled up back of
the ears. If some mouths could be
fitted with Maxim silencers, their
owners would stand much better
chance of getting elected to public Of
fee
The mouth is also a weather bu-
reau for the disposition. By it's
shape we can tell whether to look for
sunshine and warm weather, or
squalls, storms and brickbats from its
owner. When it is curved upward on
either side, its owner can generally
be tackled for small loans with i'm
punity, but beware of the mouth
which says at the ends.-George
Fitch.

WHAT A CALIFORNIAN DID IN
FLORIDA

Many Californians do honorable
stunts in the places whence they
come to our citizenship, and We like
to tell their present neighbors of
them when we get chance. For ex-
ample, we find in the Southern Ru-
ralist of Atlanta, Georgia, of which
DR.. H. E. Stockbridge, the well known
agricultural chemist, is editor, the
following reference to Dr. R. R. Snow
den of Los Angeles, who is described
as lone of their modest men who
spend their lives in making scientific
knowledge of practical use to human
ity with no thought of self or of per-
sonal gain" The article then pro-
ceeds as follows:
DIR. Snowden is one of the men to
whom American agriculture owes a
great, but little recognized, debt. Per-
haps the one achievement for which
he should be held in lasting regard is
the discovery of the Florida phos-
plate deposits and making them
known as the largest and richest
source of phosphate in the world.
This was back in 1888, and from the
work of DR.. Snowden in this direction
dates the great phosphate industry of
Florida-which is of worldwide agri-
cultural and commercial Importance.

York World states that a monument has been erected over the graves of James McNeill Whistler, the famous artist, and his wife in the Chiswick churchyard.
 Whistler was born in Lowell. Mass, in 1884 The family resided on Main street Stonington, until 1899, while the father, an expert engineer, was en- gagged on the railroad being construct ed to Providence from Stonington Their home was with Major Whistlers sister-in-law, Mrs. George E. Palmer.
 The design of the monument is in the Italian renaissance style, the up- per part ornamented with a frieze and bay leaves At each of the four cor ners, standing upon the die of the pedestal, there is a beautifully carved figure of a classic mourner bearing an offering of fruit or flowers. The whole rests upon a step of green granite.
 Inscribed upon the monument are the names of Whistler and his wife, who was the daughter of Phillips, a widely known English sculptor and the widow of E. w. Goodwin when Whis- tier married her.
 Underneath the names is the quota tion: "The place where I also at last hope to be hidden, for in no other world would I be-"
 The whole work is chaste and digni- fled and was designed by Edward Goodwin.

derstand how O'Toole gets away with 1 1t, it is probable that he will be a sue
 cessful pitcher unless something hap
 pens to his arm. There is no greater pitcher than Ed Walsh of the White SoN, and in intelligence Big Ed also ranks high. He says the spitball is and will continue to be the most effective ball pitcher can throw One can un- derstand how O'Teele could fan Bescher, a star hitter on the Cincin- natl team three times straight, and also make almost every other man on them miss them, after reading what Walsh says he can do to such hitters as Cobb, Crawford and Jackson, the stars of the American league.
 The splitter is a terror when it works right. One day I had Detroit in the nine hole, and you know the Tigers are some hitters. I think Cobb and Crawford are two of the greatest stickers the game ever produced. The splitter had them all standing on their heads. Neither Ty nor Sam could get it out of the infield. I held them hit less for eight rounds and had two gone in the ninth when my catcher muffed a foul tip. If he had only held the leather it would have meant another out, and given me a no-hit game against the Tigers. The huff gave the batsman one more chance. He dumyed a roller to Tannehill, who had a hard play to make and missed his man. The scorer called 1t a hit. Elmer Stricklett invented the spitball in 1904. swiped the idea from Elmer and have been perfecting it ever since. Now think I've got the spitball down finer than any other man in the game"

FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL.
BUSINESS AT sTANDsTILL.
A Waiting Attitude Due to Session of
 the, Supreme Court.

New York, May Flor the greater part of todays stock market session business was at standstiL and the list frequently without definite trend. Traders were plainly disposed to await the outcome of events at Washington, where the highest judicial tribunal Was again holding open court after 9 fort nights recess before emoarklng upon new adventures. Additional excuse for the days dullness and general uncer- tainty was found in the closing of all the important exchanges abroad,Wher the Whitsuntide holidays were being observed.
 The political situation in its general aspects appeared to awaken no fresh interest. The conservative element which looks beyond the immediate fu- ture paid vastly more attention to crop prospects and the broad business out look than to all else.
 Such heaviness as was manifested by the coal shares today may have been due in a measure to the action of the department of justice, which has ordered an inquiry into the recent in- creased price of coal This action is aimed chiefly against the Reading com pany, but indirectly affects all rail roads and mining companies engaged in the handling of that fuel. Wall streets interest in Cuban affairs is .lit- tie more than passive, but encourage ment was found in the .reassurances conveyed by President T fit to Cuba s chief executive.
 In the final hour, waen it became reasonably certain that the supreme court would not take action in the much discussed coal cases, the market eased off to lowest prices of the day with especial weakness in Reading, Le- high Valley, Union Pacific, United States Steel and various specialties whose early gyrations had been ig- nored The closing brought no change from the early dullness and the tota output of 220,000 shares was the small est for a. full session in some weeks.
 The one feature of the local money market was the better demand fol commercial paper. A discount as low ss t-2 per cent. was reported fOI some prime paper. much of which Is being taken by western banks Rates for both time and call loans were un- changed, and the holiday abroad put 2 temporary quietus on further borrow ings by Berlin.
 Bonds were relatively /more active than stocks and reflected increased | heaviuess. Total sales, par value, $2,- 0T9.000.
