All carefulIwife can save for man he can

The quicker girl can fall in love with a

Tn TRUTH ABOUT BULL MOOSEvELT.

Under the direction and management of
Theodore Roosevelt the third party was launch
ed in convention at Chicago. The outcome is
eagerly awaited.
If man will make close and unprejudiced
study of what all this is about, the motives
that started it, the ambition behind it, the men
and their former positions, he will no doubt
not be tearing his shirt to get into the baud
wagon
Every one of these men have been in power
before. They have won elections right along
4 with the rest of us. They have fought side
by side with the men they now cali thieves
What is it all for? 1t is because some one has
been beaten. 1t is very hard for Roosevelt to
stand the sting of defeat. He has forgotten
that when he was president he used the same
practical politics and with greater audacity to
carry his points than the present Executive.
We read in uhe Louisville Herald and the

lished for the purpose of trying to show up
the present administration as contaminated.
These same papers, to do justice to all in their
mudslinging, may as we'll publish that inter-
view between Hartman and Roosevelt, when
Roosevelt said "You and are practical men,"
and also something about the legality of the
merger of Tennessee Coal and Iron Co. The
great common people were not considered in
these propositions.
Whatever will be the future of the Pro-
gressive party, it is pretty certain that Roose-
welt will be defeated this time and then he may
step aside and work for some tue progressive,
like Hadley or LaFollette.
We have no issue to take with true pro-
gressive Where a mans record is clean and
where he is fighting for cause and prin-
ciple we are for him, but when the motives are

Tn. Mystery ST Bird Flight.

A curious fact concerning birds Is
that the tip of the wing moves at
practically the same speed in every
species. This Is $50 feet per minute or
nearly seven and a half miles per hour.
Whether it is the tiny wren or the
huge stork, the rule holds good. and
even the bee comes within 1t. Thus
the bee has a wing only quarter Of
an inch long. the sparrow's wing Is
four inches and the stOrk's twenty
seven. But the bees wing beats ll,4Oo
times in a minr.r. the sparrow's 30
and the stork's only LOO times. If you
multiply together the length of the
wing and the number of beats you
will get almost exactly the same result
in the three cases-namely. stork, 2,S3j;
bee, 1850: sparrow. 1850. But If ever
a machine is made to fly like bird 1t
will have TO develop far more energy
than these figures stand for. A birds
energy of flight is not so great as is
supposed Although such skillful f1iers
when aloft, many birds cannot rise
from level ground. London Answers.

The ruffian, without hesitation, came

this action upon his companion was

Anecdote of Gounod.

Gounod was at one moment within
an ace of taking holy orders, but on
reflection he thought that the life OF a
priest would not suit him. He none
the less remained a firm and devout
Catholic and adored religious music.
On this point typical anecdote is told
of him. 1t occurred during the re
hearsal Of his "Drames Sacres" at the
Vaudeville theater. The manager call,
ed on him one morning and asked per
mission to make a suggestion. IL
think. mon cher maitre." he said, that
there is something wanting in your
sacre. For example, do you not think
that the Barabbas incident might be
improved by a little more orchestral
effect?" Gounod, without replying, hid
his head in his hands and after two or
three minutes of meditation suddenly
exclaimed: mo; decidedly no. Such a
BLACKBOARD as that does not deserve
more music."-London Graphic.

No explorer before or since has ap-

Stanley reaped, says 4 writer in the
New York Sun, and no man of letters,
soldier or scholar has had such single
lecture tour as SANKEY'S greatest. In
something like ten cities he received
$1,000 for his first appearance. For the
first night in another group Of cities he
received $1,000 and in still another
group $500. Travelling in special car,
upon which he lived in most places,
and accompanied by four or five guests,
he ended the tour with SOS, 700 clear Of
all expenses. For that first night in
New York charity paid Stanley's
agent $1,000, and the receipts from the
lecture were S14,163. On the other
hand, Alexander Graham Bell used to
lecture for S25 night in schoolhOuses,
and the struggling inventor was glad
