counterfeltsr Gets stlff sentenee.

William Fink, a Brooklyn, N. Y. dealer
in drugs, was sentenced by the New York

for four months. The charge was coun-
terfelting the trademark for Carter's Lit
tie Liver Pills, in violation Of the penal
law.
The Carter Medicine Company detected
the counterfeit before any quantity of the
spurious goods had been placed upon the
market. In sentencing Fink, Judge Deuel.
laid special stress upon the injury done to
the public when a remedy so well known
as Carter's Little Liver Pills is counter
feited and put on the market. He i'm
posed the sentence not only as the prop
er punishment OF Fink himself but in or
der to deter others from the commission
of like frauds in the future.

Whenever it is not possible to haul
the manure to the field as it is made,
it should be made and stored under
cover on a water-tight floor, kept moist
and compact, and treated with acid

to the rather scanty supply OF phos-

ARKANSAS

By GEORGE FITCH,
Author of "At Good Old siwash."

Arkansas, which was named by one Of
the worst spoilers in history. is pro-
nounced "Arkansaw," and is a partially
River on its west side.
Arkansas has 5000 square and par
TALLY dry miles and 100000 people. a
great many Of whom wear shoes both
summer and winter. Nobody knows how
the State got all these people. but II is
surmised that most of them were visit
ing In the vicinity when the Mississippi
River steamboats, thinned out and were
unable to get home afterward. The State
is now isolated from the rest of the coun-
try by a number Of casual and dilettante
railroads. The star Of empire passed In
500 miles TO the north on its way west
ward. The tourist glides swiftly by on
the north. south. east. and west. and
only the intreoid real estate agent and
the invalid with a consuming thirst for
sulphur water now penetrate into It's
fastnesses and explore II.
The early history of Arkansas was
written In shakes and shivers. and the
principal literature OF the backwoods is
still the ague cure advertisement In
1851 Arkansas seeded with the rest Of
the South. II came back in 1858, but this
fact was not noticed by the nation or
the inhabitants for many years Only
recently a local statesman named Jefer-
son Davis arose and has since become
Senator, receiving the enthusiastic votes
of many Arkansans who thought they
were voting for the original Jen.
Arkansas produces coal. cotton. lumber,
corn, and tall Gothic hogs so than that
they are only visible from the side. The

nothing in a business way is better
known than ownership and purpose OF
newspapers, and that in most cases
there is neither attempt nor motive fol

where concealment is sought it is use
less; because no law can improve a con-
dition that exists OF necessity"

Judge Parker Flags Roosevelt.

Judge Parker never is more interest
ing than when discussing Mr.. Roosevelt
and his ambition and exaggerated ego !;
for he is an expert on Roosevelt and
Rooseveltism.
The judge, we know, has given long
and careful study to the subjects, and
hence he speaks as an authority. He
tells us that the issues of the cam
paign as far as they had been presented
definitely were the tariff and the trusts.
Now, Mr.. Roosevelt has had seven
years and half in which to reduce the
tariff, but never made a move in that
direction. When he became President
there were I4o trusts. with a combined
capitalization OF S4.ooo,ooo,ooo. When he
left the White House there were 1920
trusts with a capitalization of $4,000
100000. Judge Parker cannot be made
to believe that on this issue Mr.. Roose-
velt's attitude will be different should
he manage to get into power again. d,
But. worse still, Mr.. Roosevelt insists
that the antitrust law is useless. This
being the case, we may fairly assume
that he has no intention of enforcing it
The fact is, he has no intention of
"curbing" the trusts, but only to reg
ulate" them This is exactly what
Perkins, Gary, and the other trust mag
mates are after These men are quite
willing to take their chances Of rim
ming the government as soon as it is
established by the people that it is
right for them TO be regulated" Judge
Parker adds:
Whatever else the people of the
United States may expect from Col.
Roosevelt, if he should be made Presi-
dent again, make no mistake about il,
he will never lift his finger in the flu
ture. any more than he has in the past,
to curb the trusts.
Discussing the Hartman incident
and the license which the Khaki-Jus-
tinian gave TO the Steel Trust to alb
sorb its great rival, the Tennessee Coal
and Iron Company, the judge made it
clear that there is no reason to look for
relief from our present difficulties to
the third termer.

BY its very nature journalism is ex-

Of the OWNERS. They may be good or
bad, but they cannot be hidden from
1.-THE readers and the public.
Muck-rakers, politicians, and lee
turers often advance the idea that news
paper articles of which they disap-
prove have been paid for. If such a
charge can be proved. ALI argument
ceases, of coursel For, what any

subject is of little. or no value. But,
to be honest and fair, critics or skeptics
ought to admit that as rule the news
paper is the only enterprise that never
receives any direct emolument-or re-
ward-from the causes it upholds. So
far as these enterprises are concerned,
il actually works for nothing. Its re-

How many of DUR best and truest

Well put, indeed And on the other
hand, the newspaper is the most open,
and as far as its revenues are con-
ccrned, the simplest business. 1t has
nothing to sell but newspapers and
the space in them, which is occupied
by perfectly obvious advertisements.
Any one may buy paper for a cent

EVENING CLOTHES IN EUROPE.
Mems Dress in London Hotels and
Thenfcrs.

From the sartorial Art Journal
Naturally a comfortable travelling coal
or wrap will be useful on the promenade
deck of the ocean liner. Equally natu-
rally full dress evening clothes should
be recommended for wear at the dinner
table and afterwarc. as well on the boat
as at the hotel. or place of evening en-
tertainment.
In London evening dress is compulsory
in the grand dining-rooms at the best
OF the big hotels. although private din
ners are served in the smaller rooms
without this ordinance being enforced
At the theater or the opera evening
dress is expected, and. generally speak
ing. insisted upon in the private boxes,
orchestra stalls, and first circle.
In such places of al fresco entertain
ment as the Shakespeare exhibition at
Earls Court and the White City a
somewhat mixed crowd is usually pres
ent: but after the dinner hour the great
majority of the best people wear even
ing clothes, the tuxedo and the swal-
lowtail finding equal favor.
On Sundays evening dress is seldom
worm except in Bohemian circles, ow-
ing probably to the general Sabbath
custom OF serving dinner in the middle
of the day.
On the Continent, especially in France
and Belgium, formal dress. which Is the
same thing as evening dress with US, Is
donned at every conceivable opportunity.
No matter whether il is morning, noon.
or night. or whether christening, birth
day, marriage. or funeral, the event Is
made the OCCASION for bringing out the
cherished swallowtail.
When q happens, as sometimes 1t does,
that an invited guest or other partici-
pant in the proceedings is not the posses
sor of the necessary garment of distinc-
ton, frock coat is often made to
serve the purpose of the dress coat by
being taken TO an amenable tailor, who
temporarily adapts the skirts to the re-
quired shape, remodeling them to their
nrizinal fnrn, u day or so after use.
