insert tho actual object. But dogs un-
fortunately have not as yet arrived AT the
standard of mental development which Is
represented by human art and what they
would recognize would be exactly that
which was outside It's true circuit: while
human beings would Instantly recognize
that the stick was not presented In ac-
cordance with the terms OF the bargain;
and therefore, az far AZ the picture was
concerned. the stick would not represent Il
stick at ALL but merely part Of the pic
ture which had been left out. Such things
do not really belong TO the province OF
realistic suggestion at all. and In response
ble art they are. TIL recently. OF rare oc-
currence.
And in concluding the chapter:
Moreover the art in which realistic sus-
gestion IL most profusey used is just the
art in which Il Is least legitimate. II is
most acceptable in the finest forms OF art.

viSed version Is EarInageddon. II to be
the last conflict between the hosts Of
the Lord and all the powers of dark
ness. 1t is prophesied in Revelation
xvi. 16. And he gathered them to-
gether in a place called in the Hebrew
tongue ArmaGeddon." The name comes
from har mcgiddo. the mountain dis

Israel. There is where the stars
fought against SiSera. as Narrated in
the book of Judges. and where Josiah.

of ArmageddOn' is used Svmbolically
to describe any great conflict. but in its
original meaning 1t referred to the

Washington, ID. G., Aug. 13.-The
annual post Office appropriation bill
passed the senate tonight after two
days sharp fighting over provisions
relating to the parcels post. good
roads improvement, and the afilia-
ton Of postal employees with labor
organizations.
As it goes back to the house il
contains some restrictions upon the
right of postal employees TO join out
side organization, and an entirely
new plan Of parcels post based on
the zone PLAN with varying rates
for varying distances.
The bill now goes to conference.
The senate today approved in part
the right of government employees to
strike. but provided that employees
do not join labor organizations
(which imposes the obligation OF
duties to strike or to assist in a
strike against the United States"
Under the terms Of the bill as it
passed both houses, employees of The
government have a right 40 appeal

MAYOR OF BOSTON
BOOMS BAKED BEANS
Joins Boycott on Beef Trust. by Cut
ting Out Beef from His Daily
Menus.

Boston, Aug. 13.-Mayor Fitz-
gerald has taken his own advice and
actually begun a meat boycott on his
own dinner table to aid in crushing
the beef trust. 1t is fish, vegetable,
beans and eggs from now on for Mr..
Fitzgerald.
Not a bit of beef or other meat
adorned the Fitzgerald table today.
Besides killing off the beef trust,
Mayor Fitzgerald will boom Boston
baked beans. The mayor relates
how, when he was chairman Of the
San Francisco relief committee, he
recommended sending there a car
load Of beans. And it makes him
blush at this late date to think they
had to send 10 Baltimore to have the
beans baked.
Deans are the best thing in the
world says the mayor, IF they
are baked in Boston. If Boston cap
i~talists would take a little Of their
money and put it into the bean in
dustry there would be something
doing. There would be some gold
dollars finding their way to this
Hub that now 20 elsewhere"
Mayor Fitzgerald was asked what
effect the elimination of meat from
the diet would have on the human
system. He was asked if he had
consulted any scientists on this
question.
~ have not had any immediate
consultation with scientists, but
from my knowledge of the subject,
| should say that vegetables and fish
would act all right" he replied.

BILL.

William Lorimer, who was Ousted
from the United States senate after
it had been ocnclusiyely proven that
he was never entitled to have a seat
therein, has had the colossal i'm
pudence to ask the United States to
pay him $4,000 for expenses in
Cured to prove a fraudulent title.
The senate committee which investi-
gated the charges against Mr.. Lori
mer has decided that he is entitled
to some reimbursement, but has
not reached a definite decision as to
the amount. The matter is still to
come before the senate as a whole.
1t will not take the average citi-
zen of the United States more than
ten seconds to arrive at the entirely
Just and accurate conclusion thai
Mr.. Lorimer IS not entitled to a
single cent. His claim should be
tossed into the nearest waste basket
without an ~instant's hesitation, 1t
is difficult 10 see how any normal
mind can reach any other conclusion.
This man, as has been proved, OBJ
tanned his election as a United
States senator by bribery and fraud
ulent methods. After two investi9a-
lions that have co@tsthe taxpayers of
his country many thousands Of dol
lars he was expelled from the senate
in disgrace. He now ONE and asks
that he be reimbursed for expenses
incurred in defending stolen goods.
His case is similar to hat of a burg
lar who asks the man whose house
he had robbed to defray the expenses
of his trial.
The placid impudence Of this
claim is entirely characteristic Of
Lorimer. He has never cared any
thing for what people said or
thought if he only obtained what he
wanted-and during all his life he
has been in the habit of wanting
pretty much all that was in light.
The United States senate should
not dignity the claim Of Lorimer
with any consideration whatever.
They have thrown him out and they
should throw his bill Of expenses
after him.-San Antonio Light.

WEDNESDAY, AUGUST IA, 1912
THE LESSON OF THE PRIMARIES.

Experience is The best teacher,
though generally a costly one. The
democratic voters Of Texas have had
a lesson from this expensive in=truc-
tor this summer by which they GER
tainly should profit hereafter. It
appears strange indeed that they
had not learned the lesson before.
But whatever may have been the re?
suits Of previous experiences Of
Texas democrats in the primary
elections, those held last month in
this state should open their eyes
fully to the great Importance Of this
feature Of the state election law.
Whatever may have been former
impressions concerning the primary
election law in Texas, everyone must
realize by now that the primary
really casts the deciding vote in this
state.
The state ticket and, almost with
out exception every district, county
and precinct ticket is not only nomi-
mated but Is virtually elected in the
primary election.
Realizing this, Texas democrats,
and, i'm fact, every person having the
~Alfare Of the state at heart. should
realNe that the real iime 70 fight
for any Office in Texas is before the
primary elections.
AT the samc time, experience has
taught rs that. if the primary cleo
tion is 10 be a truly fair, honest and
unrestricted expression Of the will
OF the voters OF whichever party it
is conducted by, it must be hcdged
about by every restriction that is
included in the provisions Of the
eAction law, and the voters must
see before hand that opposing can
didates shall have representation at
the polls.

A PECULIAR COMPLAINT
Rats and Lizards Interfere With
Operation Of Electrical Machinery.

A small rat revolving at the rate
Of fifteen hundred revolutions per
minute has been found extremely
detrimental to the proper operation
of electrical machinery. Lizards
rotating at a similar speed have been
found equally detrimental. An
armaturo was recently returned
from Costa Rica to an electric COM
pany at Ampere, y. J., with the re-
quest that the ventilation holes be
screened with gauze or in some fash
ion. The Costa Rican correspondent
wrote:
There are openings or holes i'm

When the power is turned on they
are thrown against the casing and
