Left Hand Drive is
Said to Be Logical

Growing preference for cars built with
left hand drive and control levers in the
center is Indicated by the adoption Of
this design by many Of the American
makers.
Some companies have brought out cars
in which the steering column appears
on the left, but the levers are ON the left
side also. compelling motorists TO get
accustomed 10 the use Of the left hand
in gear shifting and brakins. Others have

THE BRAVEST LIVING MAN.

The bravest man in New York made
his appearance in a Broadway store
one day last week. He carried an
enormous bandbox which contained an
enormous hat, on which the man
wanted what he considered an enor,
nous amount of money refunded. The
man was pretty mad, and, while look
ing for someone who had the author
ity to negotiate the transaction, he
talked loud enough for everybody to
hear.
my wife bought this hat" he said.
"She doesn't need it. She has already
bought three hats this spring. She
paid $50 for this one. She has never
worn it. 1t just came home last night.
| can't afford to throw all that none
away, and l want you to take the hat
back. She wouldn't bring it down, so
| undertook the job myself"
"By the side of that man Napoleon
Bonaparte was a ~cringing coward"
said the young woman who had made
the sale. Imagine Napoleon flounc-
ing into a Partisan millinery chop with
a hat that he didn't want Josephine
to buy! He could not have done it,

ELEVEN RULES FOR HEALTH.

Good Air.-Avoid badly ventilated,
badly lighted, dusty, dirty, overheated,
crowded or damp rooms.
Avoid House Dust.-Breathing dust,
notably house dust, often causes dis
ease. Have no t~acked-down carpets
or mattings; use rugs, not attached
to floors, and clean them frequently
in the open air. Lower the upper win
dows when sweeping or busting; keep
the lower windows down. Never
sweep with a broom, that raises dust.
Pure Water.-Drink pure water;
avoid water from shallow or unpro-
tected wells and from ponds and
streams. When in doubt, boil the wa
ter. Shun public drinking cups.
Safe Milk and Cream.-Tubercu-
losis, typhoid fever and other disease
are often caused by drinking dirty,
raw milk or cream. Investigate your
dairyman. Patronize the dealer with
clean, up-to-date methods.
Keep Clean.-Take a tub bath or a
sponge bath every day. A warm bath
should be followed by a cool shower.
Use soap freely. Wash your hands
before handling food. Don't put fing-
ers, money, paper or pencils in your
mouth. Don't bite your finger nails.
Clean your teeth morning and even
ing
Food.-Don't eat raw food which has
been exposed to flies or dust or
touched by unclean hands. Fruit or
vegetables should be rinsed or washed
thoroughly with pure water before
eaten raw. Chew your food well.
Sleep.-Get enough sleep. The av-
erage adult requires not less than
eight hours sleep. Sleep with the bed
room windows open, or, better still,
sleep outdoors.
Head Up.-Sit and stand erect.
Practice deep breathing. Breathe
through your nose.
Exercise,-Take plenty of outdoor
exercise. Avoid excess in athletics
it may cause heart trouble. Don't eat
or drink while %overheated from ex-
ercise.
Colds.-Don't neglect coughs or
cold. If you do not recover as quickly

Speaking Of the trusts, corporations,
the robber tariffs and other Unequal
tiles increasing the burdens of the
masses as against the classes, made
possible under our present form OF
government; the greatest curse to the
people, the greatest injustice and the
greatest burden laid on the shoulders
of the taxpayers of this country, is
our iniquitous pension system. 1t has
been ~forty-seven years since the war
closed, and instead of decreasing the
pension roll is constantly increasing,
and the taxpayers are now called upon
to pay annually 5000, 000, 900 in pen
sions. A reform of the pension list
is the most important measure that
confronts the statesmen of the United
States.

The cattle arrived in the city Tues

they had been loaded. AS soon as they
came into the city Col Pascual OrOZcO
ordered that the cattle be held as the
war tax had not been paid. Col. Hunt
claims that the war tax mad been paid
earlier in the week while in Chihuahua,
and he showed his receipts from the
rebel leaders there Then the rebels
said that the tax you'd have 10 ne

to TerraZas and Hunt had no business
in exporting them Hunt then showed
a contract where he had bought 1900
head from Terrazas and had been guar

leo of the cattle. The rebels thought
that Hunt was simply the agent of the
TerraZas family, instead Of being the
owner Of the cattle.
1t was then that the American consul
was sought in the case and Hunt nOti-
fled Col Pascual OrOZcO that If he was
not allowed to move the cattle on the
papers he had, that he would turn them
over TO the care of consul Edwards.
The rebel leader then permitted the
expectation to be made, about o'clock
Tuesday night.
Mr.. Hunt intends to export the re-

for in his contract despite the little
