Gauss Of Germany, and I agree with
him. that the action Of radium and
agents affect the diseased tissues
without destroying the surrounding
tissues. Therefore they have the
same selective action. Both are pain
less.
The technique in the use of radium
is less difficult to learn. though, and
for that reason it can be used more
Of it is obtained. It is to be hoped
that some charitably inclined person
will make donation large enough to
secure an eective quantity Of radiuln
for the treatment Of the poor.
I'm the meantime. while radium is
so scarce, we need not despair. since
N-rays are so similar. They ac-
complish the same results"

MURDERERS MAKE
GOOD PRISONERS
So Says Sergeant Thomas
Gray, Former Official at
Penitentiary

Murderers are, as general rule,
the most exemplary convicts in pen
.tentiary. according to Thomas Gray,
desk sergeant at the local police sta
ton. who was for many years an Of
hciaI at the state prison at Bismarck.
Take the case of w. S. Howard
who was recentl'. pardoned." said
Sergeant Gray today. Howard was
one of the best prisoners We ever had
in prison.
This is generally the case with
murderers who have long sentence
to serve. In some cases it is probably
because they are honestly sorry for
what they have done. and in others
because they realize that the only
way in which they can get any COM
mutation of their sentences is by be-
having themselves we'll enough to win
a pardon.
That good conduct often brings
this result is shown by a number of
cases. including that of Howard, and
also that of Joe. Remmington, who
killed Jack E'leck at Argusville and
was later pardoned.
"One of the most pathetic cases I
have ever seen in the penitentiary
was that of Peter Peterson of Penn
hina county, who was sent 70 the
prison some twenty-five years AGO for
killing his wife. Peterson is now al
most so wears old, and could probably
ret pardon We're 1t not for the fac:

the United States. II will be irrigated

know, makes great bend across the
Mexican boundary. and then returns to
the United States. We have had sur
veys made there in connection with
the United States government. and have
made such water agreement with
YOU that we can reclaim an equal ter
ritory with yourselves. I should say
there is ut least 100000 acres of that

this will be worth in the neighbor-
hood of $500 an acre when tho water
is turned in.
There is no soil on the face of the

Yes. we have plans to that effect.
We have immense zones that are suit
able for cotton. and we have one con-
Germ which is making final arrange
ments to cultivate about a quarter of
a million acres. This will give us all
the raw cotton we need. and leave
something for export. AS II is now,
our plantations are turning out an an

Ii is easy to figure the actual value

'ogne Is Annihiated in a Garlic Car Battle

along the line like to say: Il smell

When these cars we're put on the
Windsor Park line and the cars of the
latter line sent to the garlic line, there
arose a howl of protest in Windsor
Park. Business men who reside there
vowed that their wives and daughters
should not be compelled to ride all
the way to the Sixty-third street

test was held and Miss Jane Hin
man, prominent in social uplift work;
Mrs John C. Conners and Mrs. Frank
Edwards were appointed a commit
tee to see President Busby of the

counteract the smell of garlic by the
profuse use Of cologne. Experience
has not given them encouragement.
It's no use," said one of them.

button short in any portion of ones

pardonable sin, while to have ones
shirt cuff frayed, or a rip in ones
new Bulgarian tie, are inexcusable
social crimes.
Il have always been something Of
an expert with the needle and decided
to turn my experience to good advan-

have devised some new ways and
means for mending and darning so
that the repair is actually invisible
except with a microscope.
Il know young men, particularly
bachelors, are particular and that
some of them do not like the idea of
having anything mended. If there Is
a hole in anything they throw 1t
away. This is an extravaganza in
which the sensible young man will not

Pities Bachelors; Establishes Mending Bureau

CLEVELAND, GA motherly little
" woman has taken pity on the but
tonless, undarned and proverbiaily
''holey," helpless bachelors Of Cleve-
land. She has established a Bache-
lor's Mending Bureau.
Bachelors, because they are com
monty supposed to be in need of the
kind of aid which she is prepared to
give, and married men whose wives
are away, or who like to shop and
"gad" better than sew, are eligible
for assistance from this seamstress
extraordinary.
The woman is Mrs. e. T. Benson,
formerly of New York, where she es-
tablished a reputation for bachelor
mending." She has patched" and
darned for some of the best known
bachelors in the East. There is one
condition that she insists on in taking
mending Of unmarried men to do. That
is a guarantee from them that if they
marry they will not fiaunt her mend
ing in the faces of their wives and
speak regretfully of "the way Mrs.
Benson darned."
'eNhy get married." inquired a
young blade" who had just had rent
in his trousers (the extra pair, not
\ those he was wearing) mended so that
mo one could see where his girls
fathers bulldog had embraced him.
There is really no longer excuse for
any bachelor having a hole in his
otherwise lovely silk sox. To be one
