USES OF TELEPHONE.

The telephone is the mo0ern In.
yention which would most nearly
upset our forefathers if they were
to return and look us over. The"
might marvel ut the electric light
and climb trees to escape the trOlly
cars, but if a Pilgrim father were to
deposit conversation in a small box
and find it later in the ear of per-
sonal friend 1000 miles away he
would rise up and yell for witch
craft commission.
The telephone has made neishbor-
hoods out of States and families on,
Ct cities. 1t has put the grocer and
butcher within arms reach of the
housewife and has doubled the life
IF every pair OF shoes. 1t has M.
the farmer into the city in three
rings and cuss word and keeps the
young man within reach OF his
sweetheart, no matter how faithful
the bulldog may be at the front
safe. The telephone enables a man
to go 100 miles and return while his
feet are on his desk. and it enables
lovely woman to talk with her
friends across the city until her arm
gets paralysis without giving the
gossiper next door any satisfaction
But the telephone also has it's
penalties. 1t has filled our homes
full of strangers and reporters and
reddlers and has enabled tho world
10 hustle in over a thin wire and in.
to,rupt our meals and sleep witbout
waiting for admission. Tho to,o-

die of loneliness and sore feet. But
like all blessings it is not apprec;-
sted. Thirty years ago, it took an
hour to go downtown and get the
baseball scores. Nowadays if a fan
waits half a minute at the telephone
before his suspense is relieved they
have to burn sulphur all over the
house to get the conversation out OF

The telephone has raised the pro.
fessiOn Of chiropody but it has in

the citizen who can say hello

NEW FLIMFLAM GAME FOR
CHRISTMAS SEASON

A twentieth-century, up-to-thc-
minute swindler has introduced a
new flimflam game In Cincinnati.
PrOprietors of two large downtown
department stores were initiated in
to the latest "easy-m0ney" scheme
Yesterday, and the victims were lit
orally astounded at the daring and
originally of the cunning indiyidu-
ais operations. The fact that the
swindler's efforts are going to be
hard to combat is giving owners OF
the concerns food for serious thought
aid has caused a general warning
tc cashiers, who are made the Objec-
tive point Of the money extractor
Shortly after noon Yesterday we'll
dressed man, possessing the air of an
influential citizen, walked into a
Fourth-avenue store and made his
way to the cashiers desk. II am
Mrs. So-and-So (using the name o.:
customer of the storc). want to
settle my account. but left my bill
at home. How much do owe you :"
is the individuals greeting to the
cashier, who Immediately consults
Ne firms ledger.
"Mr. So-and-So, your account il
$l2." the man Is finally informed.
That's right" he replies. as he
the cashier q check for 800.
Upon being given the change, $88,
ID after insisting upon a receipt,
the imposter disappears. When the
firm attempted to deposit the check
in bank the paper was proclaimed a
forgery. During the afternoon rush
hours a Fifth-avenue firm was made
the second victim Of the crook. The
customers" account happened to be
SIS; the trickster made SIS by using
the same methods as In the other
store.
The scheme Is a new one to the
Cincinnati police. who are working
Oh the case. The fact that the
swindler learns the names Of GUS
toners of the stores which he marks
as his victims shows with what care
the system has been worked out and
stamps the miscrcant as a danger
Gus man and one whom the authori-
ties will have trouble trapping.
The Christmas season Is q most
cpportune time to work the game, a.
during the rush Of business It IL
practically impossible for cashiers to
make careful investigation into the
identity Of persons wishing to settle
Their accounts. There is always tho
fear that a bona fide customer may
be insulted by too insistant inquiry.
The swindler evidently works on
that assumption, and by his CONT
dent bearing dsarms suspicion.

Bear Batting Popular Snort.

Few sports have had such a great

ing. The Romans imported their bears
from Britain, and the sport can be

A full pint Of cough syrup-as much
as you could buy for $2.50--can easily

more quickly, usually ending it inside of
"a hours. Excellent, too, for Group,
whooping cough, sore lungs, asthma,
hoarseness and other throat troubles.
Mix one pint of granulated sugar with
" pint of warm water, and stir for 2
minutes. Put 2la ounces of Pinex fifty
cents worthy in pint bottle, then add
the Sugar Syrup 1t keeps perfectly.
Take a teaspoonful every one, two or
three hours.
This is Just laxative enough to help
cure cough. Also stimulates the appe-
tite, which is usually upset by cough.
The taste is pleasant.
The effect of pine and sugar syrup on
the inflamed membranes is well known.
Pinex is the most valuable concentrated
compound of Norway white pine extract,
rich in guaiacol and all the natural
healing pine clements. Other prepare
tions win not work in this formula.
The Pinex and Sugar Syrup recipe is
now used by thousands of housewives
throughout the United States and Cam
ada. The plan has been initiated, but
the old successful formula has never
been equaled.
! A guaranty of absolute satisfaction. or
money PROMPTLY refunded, goes with this

WINNING WIDOW" COMES
TO THE GRAND TONIGHT.

1t is questionable if any event of a
theatrical nature is such a factor to
local interest as the annual an

jectural praise has been bestowed
upon the predecessors of the current

THE FAME OF CLAY.
Doing In


The potter took the clay; face he
made
a God-like face with God like eyes
"A perfect form, which every good ar
rayed.
Then the potter saw, with glad sur
Frise,
The face was his, His hand had
traced
The picture of his earnest heart
Had with most superb skill
Delineated every secret part
H0f his great soul Unto the world
or men that face of potter's clay
sSpske deep things no words could say
And unto their astonished eyes
Strange visions fiuttered on that face
The visions of the Love that lies
Beneath things-the real paradisel
Aud more they gazed the more they
xnew
That actions wrought with perfect
soul
ApPr0ached more nearly to the true,
Aad gave completeness to the whole
Thus ever so: The greatest work
ls done In love,
Regardless of ones creed or kirk.

GALLAGHER QUITS,
REFUSING TO AID
WILSON CAMPAIGN
Millionaire Original Mercer Co.
Wilson Man and State COM
mittee Member Resigns.

fSDerihl 10 1he Evening Nofdl
TRENTON, y. T.. Sept. l3.-Charles
H. Gallagher, millionaire steamboat
owner. original Woodrow Wilson man
in Mercer County and member Of the
New Jersey Democratic state Commit
tee, to-day gave out the following state
nent. addressed 20 Edward +. Gross
cup, Chairman of the State Committee.
In resigning from the Committee and
declining to take part in the Wilson
campaign.
Mr.. Gallagher said:
II desire to tender to you my resig-
nation as the member from Mercer
County on the Democratic State Com
mittee, an act which have contem-
plated for some time. II had been my
earnest hope. that. following the Baltl-
more convention. party harmony might
be restored. and that Governor Wilson
might prove himself big enough to for
give and forget the past; especially in
view OF the fact that the old time
Democrats. whom he antagonized, had
all rendered to him their hearty sup
port as the candidate for President.
But his latest attack on former SEN
ator James Smith jr. proves conclusive
ly that he was more insincere two
years ago when he turned upon ssena-
tor Smith on the pretext that James r.
MARITIME had received the Senatorial
primary endorsement, and was there
fore entitled to the support OF the DEM
ocrats in the Legislature. At that time
he openly declared that he was fighting
for the direct primary principle. and
The evening world., 1912-09-13

singles out OF the list Of candidates
the one man who created him political
ly? Is the man who will deliberately
and colby do such deed likely to
have any consideration for his fellow
men after he has finally had the full
greed OF his ambition gratifed?
GOV. Wilson. in his attack. recalls the
fact that Senator Smith, during the
Cleveland Administration, refused to
consent to free trade legislation. II the
facts were as Gov. Wiison presents
them, how does ne account for the warm
friendship that existed between Senator
s.n!th and Grover Cleveland right UP TO
the day Mr.. Cleveland d'ed? When
Grover Cleveland went to North Jersey
he made his home with senator Smith,
and the latter frequently visited the
Cleveland home at Princeton. Why was
Gtv. Wilson not able to retain the
friendship OF Grover Cleveland until the
end?
"As a Democrat. I am going to vote
for Wilson, but do so with the re-
gretful knowledge that his victory will
bring the complete wrecking OF the
party that, for fifteen years. have been
battling for
