LOVE STORY or ARCHDUKE
Ferdinand Charles Louis of Bavaria,
Welded to Rosa Czuber, Enjoy
ing Peaceful Exile.

The Archduke Ferdinand Charles
Louis of Austria, scratched from the
Al,nanach Gotha, scratched from the
army, deprived of all his titles, ranks
and orders, is peacefully enjoying per-
feet love as an exile. He is now known
M. Ferdinand Berg, and is painting on
the borders of Lake Lugano.
His fault was a gracious one, for
to marry morganatically has become
almost a habit in the Hapsbourg fam
lily. But this fault was aggravated by
the fact that the marriage was cele-
brated without imperial authorization.
His elder broth, the heir to the throne,
and the ducheresse of Hohenberg, who
were likewise separated by a great
difference III station, were more adroit,
and had taken into their play Madame
Schrab, the mistress of Francis 10
seph.
Madame Ferdinand Berg, nee Rosa
Czuber, has nothing with which to re-
proach herself for having made con-
quest of the archduke in an official
reception at Prague. The archduke
had Immediately demanded her hand,
but the severe DR.. Czuber made him
wait five years.
1t is only a question now of OBJ
tanning the pardon of the emperor
Francis Joseph. The archduchesse
Annonciade is employed TO do this,
but it is feared all her efforts will re
main unfruitful if she can not first
move the excellent Madame Schrab.-

But in Her Case

Womans wit readily adapts itself
to all places and all occasions. A..
woman lecturer was delivering a,
practical talk on beauty and the
beauty cult for the entertainment Of
the Woman's Professional league OF
New York at an interesting session
one afternoon.
In the course of her lecture tho
speaker emphasized the point that cer-
tain measurements were fundamental
ly important. Unhappily, however,
the lecturer herself had form-if
her unusual bulk could be dignified by
such term-that was fashioned on
anything but the lines of the Keller
mann type.
Proceeding with her dissertation on
measurements, she held up very fat,
round wrist, and said: "Now, twice
around my wrist, once around my
throat. Twice around my throat, once
around my waist. Twice around my
waist" sE
Once around Central Park!" en-
ploded an irrepressible young thing
out in the audience, and the storm Of
laughter that followed was altogether
immeasurable.--Sunday Magazine.

Something MISSING.

Life guards at Jersey seaside re-
sort tell with great glee of an incident
that happened there last summer. A
German, with his boy of ten, was
standing at the rail of one of the piers,
quite at the end thereof, when sudden
ly the youngster toppled through into
the water. AS no life guards were out
that far at the time a well dressed
young collegian on the pier, without
waiting to divest himself of shoes or
clothing, jumped in and after battling
with the waves for some minutes get
the half-drowned boy to the beach. In
the meantime the father had FASTENED
from the pier.
The parent, however, bore himself
with great GOODNESS. AS the rescuer
placed the dripping lad at his parents
feet, the German calmly inquired:
MANY tanks, but vot hat you done
NIT his hat?"

Strawberries Every Month.

A strawberry plant, imported from
Siberia last spring by Edward Dixon
of Forest Grove, Ore, bears fruit every
month in the year, the berries being
white in color when fully ripe. The
berries are not so large as the Oregon
berry. The flavor resembles that of a
pineapple.
Blossoms and fruit are found on the
plant every week in the year. how
ever the best season for bearing is
from August 1 until about the end OF
the year.
The berries hang in clusters on a
long, slender stem. Each plant has
several stems on which the fruit grow.
The stems with leaves bear no fruit.
Instead of propagating new plants
from runners, as is the case Of native
strawberries, in this species the par
ent plant is broken up, the several
fruit bearing stems are separated and
planted individually. - New York

THE plea made by those leading
democrats of our state Just before
election is just as forceful after as
before the nomination. Let every
democrat heed it: aside from
Bryan, Gov. Wilson stands out pre-
eminently fitted for leadership,
filled with the spirit of Democracy
and a grasp of the situation that
will make him a splendid leader.
His achievements in New Jersey
spells success and hope. We ear
nestly invite his support. Now is
the critical time-make no mistake.
\ ~ We have positive convictions
that Wilson is the man now best
fitted for successful leadership, that
with him victory is assured US. The
republican party is disentegrating,
now is democracy's appointed time,
let it's voice be recorded for Wilson.
Victory and truer ideals of the
functions of government and justice
in its administrations.

re ABOLISH GERMAN SALUTE
Movement Afoot Against Taking CT
the Hat or Occasions of Meet
ing and Separation.

The progress in urbanity-the art
of city life-which is taking place
among modern Germans is illustrated
by the movement for modifying, or al
together doing away with the Ger
man salute" says cablegram to the
New York American. Under the ex-
preston is meant the traditional
fashion of taking off the hat on occa-
sions of meeting or separation. 1t is
a highly elaborate performance, in
three motions, suggesting military
precision, the first being the raising
of the hat with stiffiy extended sim,
the second the lowering of it to The
knee with downward cutting motion
and the third the similarly precise
replacement on the head. The action
between adults appears formal enough
to draw smile from foreigners of
easier manners, but it becomes laugh
able when one sees it practiced with
Eli gravity between pair of school
boys or college students. How deeply
the German salute" is engrained in
the national forms of so-called polite
ness is proved by the story of The
Independently minded subordinate Of
fetal who steadily refused to rdake
the traditional obeisance to the
chief" and got the alternative of max
ing it or being dismissed. In Ger
many it is etiquette for gentleman
meeting lady of his acquaintance in
the street to take off his hat to her be-
fore she bows. In Anglo-Saxon coun-
tries the reverse is the practice, and
an American woman would feel not a
little establishment, as well doubtless
as some amusement, if she we're
brought up against one of her male
friends saluting her in the German
fashion.

BROUGHT DOWN TWO VICTIMS
But the Deer Hunter Got Surprise of
His Life When He Exam
ined Them.

One OF the best hunting stories of
the season comes from northern Wis
consin, where a prominent resident
of Phillips, accompanied by a friend.
slipped out of town one evening two
days in advance of the legal opening
day OF the season for killing deer.
His object was to hunt deer at night
by the air of strong reflector dark
lantern. He succeeded in a way far
beyond his most optimistic hopes in
killing something, but his overwhelm-
ing surprise on first viewing the
game" may be better imagined than
written, and his language was horrid.
He drove his own team of horses,
valued at 5000, and some distance
from town be turned into an aban-
doned logging road, traversing it for
several miles Then he tied up the
team and prowled about in the woods
for half an hour with his light.
Suddenly he heard snort, and the
light revealed a pair of glaring eyes
from some animal a short distance
away. IN his excitement he handed
the light to his friend and banged at
the eyes. Down tumbled the animal,
and instantly there was a commotion
in the same spot, and the light re-
vealed another pair of glazing eyes.
The hunter quickly fired and the sec
ond animal dropped.
The hunters rushed forward with
their light, and to their dismay found
that both their horses were shot and
killed. They had circled about and
confronted the team in their ram
blings.

Farmers and the Income Tax.

Under the caption Farmers. and
the Income Tax the Madison Dem
ocrat says;
One N. II. Smith discusses the in
come tax in rather practical sort of
way in communication to the Bar
aboo Daily News. In Wisconsin, he
says, there are l77,l2 farms; Isl, 022
are occupied by owners; "A, 654 by ten
ants, and l45l by managers. If a re
port is made from each of all these
farms allowing 81 each for time spent
in going TO notary to swear to the
statement which every person must,
it would cost 1851 2;,4. AS he remarks,
this amount is lost, not even the Office
holders get pull st it. The notary
fees at % cent each would amount TO
S44, 2o1. 10, and stamps to send reports
to the collector would cost 1882. 81.
These amounts do not include any
taxes, Just getting ready" Mr..
Smith adds: "The income tax will not
make up for one-half of the loss on
personal property assessed. Every
farmer can add at least ten per cent.
TO his last years real estate assess
ment when he gets his tax return this
year, and he can continue TO add 10
per cent. each year as long as these
laws stand. 1t is an easy matter to
raise tie tax on real estate but hard
job to get it lowered. The tax roll
will rot come out till after election.
If every farmer i'll the state would
have made out his income report
and paid his taxes before election the
present administration would not carry
one out of the seventy-one counties in
the state. Now, farmers, what are
you going to do about this? Are you
going to continue following the wild.
believing crowd farther and farther
in hills and woods, as you have in the
past two years and allow them to rob
