Supreme Court Justice Greenbaum
wants to know why poverty suddenly
afYIicts so many previously prosperous

SMUGGlERS USED
UNCLE SAM'S0.K.
ON STOLEN LABELS
the Government Out
of Thousands in Duties
Customs Men Suspected.

Robbery OF the United States through
ing many thousands OF dollars In un-
paid duties. has been discovered. The
frauds were perpetrated through the
theft OF Customs labels. which have
been attached to baggage containing
much dutiabie property. the packages
subsequently, being passed on the stolen
labels when they reach this port.
Many thousands Of these labels have
been stolen and there Ia no means OF
telling how many trunks have been en-
tered with them, duty free.
Tho method OF entering tho goods
upon tho stolen labels IL simple. ac-
cording to Customs officers. The
smuggler. upon landing here, has, for
example. six out Of twelve trunks ex-
amined and passed by the inspector on
labels that have been stolen and sent
to him In Europe. The other six
trunks he leaves at tho pier. Later.
he soaks on tho labels from the trunks
that have been passed. takes them to
the pier and attaches them TO his I'M
claimed baggage. after which ne then
has that passed.
New labels have now been obtained
that cannot thus be tempered with.
They are made OF onion skin paper and
cannot be removed from baggage 10
which they have been attached wlthou,
showing the crooked work Additional
precautions have bcen taken by having
all labels now stamped with the da'e oi
entry and initiated by the Inspector

| used This smears when attempts ar,
made TO alter the characters.
1t is considered unlikely that the

through cooperation Of Custom en-
ployees. and an investigation Is benz
made to ind the thieves.

GREED OF CONQUEST NATURAL
TO SOME WOMEN.
Among women there are many natu-
raj coquettes who when thrown for the
first time among large numbers OF men
experience a greed of conquest and an
acquisitiveness comparable only to that
of a small child who has been told he
may take all the candy he can eat. The
inexperienced girl who meets the Down
Town Man for the first time Is tremen-
dously hattered by his casual attention.
She does not realize that he sheds
his ofnoe airtations IS lightly as
his once coat, never rsmembsrin
either in his hours Of ease save as
something hanging patiently on
peg till he returns and needs them.
She may even persuade herself that
her popularity with men may help her
work-may bring nearer her promotion.
Now. the truth about office romances
is this: One in a hundred may result
in happy marriage and a successful
home. one In ten thousand may enable
woman to attain a position 20 which
her own abilities would never cntitle
bar. But in tho Infinite majority Of
such affairs. the girl is temporarily ad-
vanced. permanently set back. An in
competent girl may keep a Job a little
longer because the man In authority
over her thinks she is in love with him.
But she never holds II permanently.
Aside from It's questicnab ethics the
office filtration Is bad policy. The girl
who makes good does not indulge Ia H.
She realizes that Cupid, Ike everybody
else, Is entitled to an eight-hOur day,
and that his day begins when her work

Farmers, Agricultural Course.

The College of Agriculture OF the
West Virginia University will hold an
other short course In agriculture for
the farmers of the state. This course
will begin January 7, 1913. and last
for ten days.
The same equipment and facilities
that are used in the teaching of the
four years course, will be used In this
short course. The instruction will not
only be given by the regular instruc-
tors of the College Of Agriculture, but
experts OF prominence from different
parts of the state and from other
states will assist In the work. Special
lectures and entertainments will be
given each evening.
The entire cost, including board,
room and registration fee, need not
exceed $500. One day at this course
may amply repay farmer for the full
amount expended.
A large number of farmers attended
the course last year and every one
felt that 1t was money well ex-
pended. One farmer who has at
tended the course for seven successive
winters, won nearly all the West vir.
ginia first prizes on fruit and vegeta.
bles at the State Fair at Wheeling.
The farmer who can leave his farm.
or the farmers boy who has no
definite line of study for the winter,
should arrange to take this short
course at the college.

BRIeHT's DISEASE.
Faulty Living is the Cause of "the
MaIady of Civilization"

Malay OF CIVILIZATION"
Bright's disease has been called "the
malady of civilization" and the name
is not unmerited. 1t is beyond every
thing else disease of civilized white
those habits of life which distinguish
the white man from the savage of the
jungle Nine times out of ten 1t is the
result, more or less direct, of disorders
of the digestive tract, and nine times
out of ten these disorders are due to
too much eating and drinking, too much
bending over desks and too little fresh
air.
The savage lives In the open, eats
simple foods, knows nothing of whisky
and gets plenty of sleep and exercise.
As result he has good digestion, a
clear eye AID good red blood in his
veins. But the civilized white man
eats rich food, made appetizing by
stimulating condiments; braces him
self with alcohol, lives in stuffy houses,
in filthy, smoky cities and never walks
when he can ride The result is that
his stomach fails in its duties; his kid
neyss inundated by poisons, go to pieces
and he dies from Bright's disease.
Sometimes the trouble starts in the
kidneys themselves as, for instance,
when they are crippled by alcohol
and sometimes it starts in the stomach
or elsewhere. But in any case the blame
lies with faulty methods of living, and
1t Is the kidneys that suffer the final
damage. And when they falter or fail
in their business the body fills up with
poisons and death is not far away.
Bright's disease, in fact, may be called
autopoisoning. Its victim dies of pol
sons generated within his own body
