NOTHING Hard About Task.

1t was not without just cause that
Mr.. Gladstone's name was given to
the handy Gladstone Bag" The
grand old man was master Of every de-
tail Of the art Of packing. At a coun-
try house they were discussing at
breakfast the right way to pack a
sponge bag when the sponge had
been used and was constantly water
logged. Mr.. Gladstone, who apparent
ly had been wholly absorbed in his
mornings correspondence, suddenly
closed the discussion by informing the
party that they were all wrong. THE

MuaIela Meat and Rread.

The truth is that the public taste is
not as degraded as theatrical manag-
r and others who cater to the gem
eral public would have us believe.
There is a desire for the better things
which is far greater than the ability
Of the producer to give them. In the
theater the immodest revue" and the
suggestive play find existence not so
much by reason of the demand of the
public as because of the limitations,
mental and moral, of the purveyor.
In light music ragtime has its place
just as fudge is regarded as an edible
without entering into the category OF
substantial food But the public has
the taste for the meat and bread OF
music which It will crafty according
to the supply.-Cincinnati Times-Star

ont in pimples and first they looked
like blisters and a yellow water would

his hair came out. The breaking out
itched so badly that we had to keep
gloves on his hands to keep him from
scratching his head and face. It
caused Disagreement, He couldn't
