SMOKING OF CICARETs


William Faversham has been a
successful actor for twenty years.
He has enjoyed good health, with
the exception of very sensitive
throat, His voice has been called
Qike Bernhardt's) a "voice of gold"
Its quality is remarkably beautiful.
Of course the sensitive throat
has been a serious drawback to bis
comfort and enjoyment in his pro-
fession.
Besides which it has cost him
dearly in doctors bills.
He was not a "fiend," but he
smoked a great many cigarets, and
considered they were a solace to
his nerves.
They helped him, he believed, to
relax, after a strenuous evening,
and helped him when he was
studying his roles.
just before he produced "Julius
Caesar" his throat was bothering
him, and his wife, Julie Opp,
begged him to drop oigarets for
two weeks.
II have an impression" she said,
"tbat they irritate your throat"
He consented to please her by
giving up oigarets for two weeks.
At the expiration of that time
such q miraculous change bad
come to bis throat, and, in fact, to
his whole system, that no sensible
man could longer question whether
the habit had been harmless or
not.
Mr.. Faversham has come to the
conclusion that oigarets have been
slowly but surely poisoning his
system and lessening his power as
an orator, and injuring his throat
all these years.
When he believed he was suffer
ing from overwork and overstrain
he was merely suffering from this
nicotine poison.
He has gone through the tre-
mendous strain of this great per-
formance of "Julius Caesar" with
less fatigue and less weakness in
any part OF his body than in any
previous undertaking.
And with less expense in the
way Of doctors bills.
Therefore, it seems to be only
just 10 the world of boys growing
up today to become actors or men
of affairs to tell this story to the
world at large.
1t contains greater lesson and
one more practically useful than
any sermon or lecture which could
be delivered on the evils Of tobacco.
Mr.. Faversham looks five years
younger since he gave up the
habit.-Ella Wheeler Wilcox in

MERCHANTS WARNED

Wednesday of this week Marshal
Fox, under instructions from Mayor
Wiley, served each of the mer-
chants of Del Norte with notice
not to sell boys tobacco of any
kind whatever, and the law govern
ing such offense was quoted in
this notice.
The action was taken through
the fact that of late many of the
young boys of this city have been
seen indulging in the pernicious
and deadly cigarette. This habit
is one of the worst with which the
American people have to contend,
and any action which tends toward
lessening the evil should be COM
mended. Every worthy citizen of
Colorado should aid in enforcing
the law concerning the "coffin
nails. Del Norte Prospector.

The highest mountain in Oregon is
Mount Hood, II, 225 feet above sea level.
Compared with Mount Whitney, to the
south in California, and Mount Rainier,
to the north in Washington, each rising
well above ID, 900 feet, Mount Hood does
not appear as skyscraper. However,
according to the biologists OF the
United States Geological Survey and
other authorities, Oregon had at one
time, probably before the dawn of life
upon the earth, great volcano which
lowered as far above Mount Hood as
does Mount Rainier, possibly even sew
eral thousand feet higher. This was
the great Mount Mazama. But thous-
ands of years ago this mountain disap-
peared into the bowels of the earth and
all that is left today is the huge rim
around Crater Lake.
Crater Lake is the caldera of this eX-
tinct and collapsed volcano and is nearly
6 miles in diameter. The inside walls OF
the rim of the ancient mountain are in
places nearly 1900 feet high and al
most perpendicular. The lake itself is
in places 1000 feet deep and parts OF
the wall rise above its waters another
1000 feet. A restoration of the noun.
tain in fancy, using as basis the angles
of the lower slopes, which still remain
shows that the apex could not have beer
far from $1,000 feet in height, so thai
Mount Mazama was one of the mos
lofty and majestic peaks in the United
States.
The Director of the Geological Survey
at Washington has a fine Topographic
map of Crater Lake and vicinity fol
sale at the nominal price of 10 cents
This map has on the back an illustrated
description of Crater Lake and al
account of its formation FROM the an
Cert mountain.

The Home of John D. Rockefeller

Up the hill, past Sleepy Hollow, lying
on two sides of distant ridge, are the
heights of Pocantico Hills. In the
green Kent House, with square tower
and gothic decorations, lives Mr.. John
d. Rockefeller, on the border of his
estate, while the new gray stone house
on the summit is being completed.
The home was in keeping with the
simple tastes of the man. In the cor
ner of the hall were flowers-just the
old-fashioned, late flowers of autumn:
hollyhocks and chrysanthemums. There
was the usual hall rack with hats and
caps. A photograph of group on the
golf-links, showing Mr.. Rockefeller in
his best golf fettle, was near the en-
trance, and in the adjoining room
pictures of Lincoln and Washington
made it seem like an old-fashioned
American home. A CHEEKY fire was
glowing in the CRATE inside, and on the
table were magazines, books and news
papers in friendly array. 1t was all
coy and homelike, such as any man of
moderate means might enjoy. Prompt
ly at the hour appointed, Mr.. Rookie
Teller came down stairs. He was at
tired in a gray outing suit, trousers
rolled up, and was wrapped in a gray
sweater, with golf cap set squarely
atop, as though ready to eclipse his
best record. AS the single guest of the
golf gallery" l was armored with a
paper vest to keep out the chilling
wind, while waiting to watch the soil
taire game of golf.
"Now we're ready" quoth the host,
leading the way to the green. "Louey,"
the Italian caddy, with heavy nous
tache and genial brown eye, pinched the
sand and perched the ball. After one
or two sweeps with the club, Mr..
Rock efeller sent the ball circling
: through the trees toward the green, like
bird seeking it's nesting place. 1t was
a prime drive, and Mr.. Rockefeller
turned to me, his eyes cleaning with
: the satisfaction of a man who ha.
accomplished his purpose. Henry, the
colored man, as the advance guard, helC
up the targets showing the location Of
each hole.

Clerk McKenney of the Supreme
Court of the United States has seen
sixteen Presidents inaugurated. On
thirteen of these occasions he has
assisted by producing the Bibles that
were used. 1t is his duty, when the
President takes the oath of his office on
Inauguration Day, on the great plat
form built tor the ceremony at the east
of the Capitol, to stand at the left of
the Executive, while the chief justice
stands at the right, and they hold the
Bible betweenIthem. When the Pres-
dent finishes the solemn words of his
oath he bows his head and kisses the
volume, as Mr.. Mckinney raises it to
his lips. Standing close to him, Clerk
McKenney notes the verse, or verses,

Saturday that "Ainew college that will
teach boys to become successful farmers
and girls to be efficient wives and
mothers is planned by President Vail,
of the American Telephone Co." It's
said that Mr.. Vail intends to leave his
5000 acre farm in Lyndon, near st.
Johnsbury, VT, to the new college and
endow it sufficiently to provide for the
expense of maintaining it for all time.
Such plan would fill an undeveloped
field in the line of educational work.

college on such practical lines. Bur
