Acting on the recommendation of a
committee appointed to. Investigate
the subject, the, Era club, a woman's
organization Of this city, decided at
a meeting today to launch a CAM
Iaign to abolish the notorious Gretna
marriages. For many years Gretna,
which is across the river from New

speedy wedding. Marrying justices
were conveniently at hand when the
ferryboat from New Orleans arrived,
ready to tie the knot without loss
Of time and with few questions ask

women convinced them that the great
majority Of the Gretna matches re-
suited in misery and unhappjiness,
hence they ha.e decided to use their
best efforts to put an end to the Gus
tom.

VIENNA, March 2O.-The first
steamship in the direct service to be
operated by the Canadian Pacific rail
road between Austria and Canada is
scheduled to sail today from Trieste
for St. John. The inauguration of
this service is expected to have con.
sequences of a most important and
f~ar!reaching nature. II present p.a-
dictions are fulfilled it will mark
the beginning of a rate war thar viii
eventually involve all of the great
lines engaged in the transatlantic
traffic.. In order to establish it's new
line the Canadian Pacific company
withdrew from the North Atlantic

controlled the steamship rates. In
taking an independent course the
Canadian Pacific has the hearty sup.

latter is determined to, secure for its
port of Trieste a fair share Of the
emigrant and other traffic, of which
the German ports have enjoyed a vir.

Tho Business of Life.

This is the task appointed: To hold the vision of d final arrival at some fitting destination; to main tain undiminished sense of per sonal worthiness; to be defeated in each foolish dream of the younger life and so to be disciplined into d large vision, made more sure by ad- versity; to be delayed for most of d lifetime and yet to believe in the strength of the human spirit to sur mount pain, outlive sin and defeat malice and envy: to believe in the gradual but all conquering power of good will: to be saddened, but not embittered; to be beaten, but not conquered. That is the stern business set before us.-Collier's s Weekly.

FAKES IN PHOTOGRAPHY.
Simple Tricks by Which the Camera 's
 Made to Lie.

oamPIo HICKS 0y WnIcn tne NameFA SS Made to Lie.
 It is we'll known that the nearer an object is to the camera the larg- CT it appears in proportion to other objects in the picture, and by taking advantage of this fact some aston- ishing pictures may be obtained, particularly if lens of somewhat short focus is employed. Not long ago the writer saw reproduced in q popular magazine photograph which was described in all serious ness as depicting cabbage of gi- gantic proportions.
 Doubtless most people who look ed at the picture were deceived, for the cabbage partially obscured a whole family of five or six persons who stood somewhere in the back ground. Yet in reality the vege- table was of only ordinary propor- ton and merely looked large in pro- portion to the human beings be- cause of its nearness to lens of short focus.
 In the same way if fisherman has caught a fish six inches long it may be made to appear gigantic in the photograph. By means of his rod and line the fisherman may hang the fish good six or eight feet nearer the camera than he him self is, and the lens does the rest.
 Very Imaginable caricature photo- graphs may be made by simply nov ing the "swing back" of the cam- era out of the perpendicular. Your friends may be made to look like reclining giants or dwarfs with big heads. In fact, an almost endless variety of quaint deformities may be devised by varying the elevation of the camera and the angle of the back. Care must. be taken, how ever, to "stop down" the lens as much as possible in order to bring the whole picture well into focus. This, of course, means that good light is required; otherwise the cx- posture must be a long one and your model may move and spoil the pie ture.-Scientitic American.

Canada's Great Game.

Lacrosse is the national ball game of Canada. It came from the aboriginal red men, who doubtless played it for many centuries before the discovery of the new world. Different tribes played it in differ ent ways, and it was usually very rough. The name was given to it by the French Canadians, who saw the resemblance between the curv. ed netted stick used in playing it and a bishops crozier or crosse.- New York Press.

MUCH MORE TO
BE ACCOMPLISHED
BY 18th GEN'L ASSEMBLY
WITH ONLY TWO WEEKS YET
REMAINING AND APPROPRIA-
TONS TO MAKE.

Little Rock, Feb. 27.-With less
than three weeks of the session re-
naming, it daily becomes more and
more apparent that the necessary
business of the general assembly can
not possibly be disposed of by March
Is, on which day the session must adj
journ sine die.
The people have said and the su-
preme court has affirmed it, and there
is no recourse. The Lawmakers have
a cordial invitation to stay as long as
they want to, but they must serve
without pay, and few are sufficiently
patriotic to agree to that.
The governor may call them back
in extra session for not more than 10
days, but they must serve for only
half pay, or So a day, and some of
the members have intimated that they
would resign before they would re-
turn. AS a matter Of fact, there is
no money in legislating anyway for
the honest man, and the other kind
seems to be very rare in the thirty
ninth general assembly.
1t is freely predicted that Governor
Robinson will be forced to call an ex-
ira session to take care or the neces-
sary appropriation bills. The general
appropriation bill was not introduced
until Monday of this week, and this
and several of the bills for the main
tenance and support of the charitable
institutions will consume at least two
days each in discussion in committee
of the whole One day last week sew
eral hours was devoted to discussion
of an interest item in a deficiency
bill of $4,000 to pay salaries of
clerks and stenographers whose COM
pensation was vetoed or not provided
for in 1911. When it comes to the
consideration of bills carrying in the
aggregate nearly three million dol
lars, it may readily be surmised that
not all will be clear sailing.
It cannot be denied that more than
half the legislation has been of To-
cal character, although there have
been few general bills of Importance
that have become laws. 1t is unlikely
that the acts will be printed in two
volumes this time, as they were in
1911, and if they were the general
acts would make scarcely more than
a pamphlet. There has been no dim
mutton in the amount of local legisla-
ton, notwithstanding the agitation
against it, in fact, it seems rather to
have increased in volume.
Two measures have been introduc-
ed that if passed will have a tenden-
cy to relieve the financial stress. One
is an administration measure by New

Write to Peruna Testimonials " You
Want to Know the Truth.

The following letter was received by
DR.. Hartman through his regular cor
respondence:
1T notice the testimonial Of Mrs.
Alice Boyle, which you give in your
last article. If 1 should write her do
you suppose she would give me further
particulars? have heard IT said
many times that such testimonials are
fakes; that they are either absolutely
fictitious or else the people have been
hired to write them. ! have been in
clined to write you a great many times
but these stories about patent medi-
cine advertisements have discouraged
me from doing SO. ! am afflicted with

find a remedy such as your article de-

made the following reply:
My dear Madam:-I do not wonder
that you are confused and have lost
all faith In advertised remedies.
There has been so much said against
them, SO much controversy concern
ing them. am not surprised that
some people have lost confidence In
them.
/ wish you would write Mrs. Boyle.
as one woman to another. wish you
would ask her whether she has been
hired to write such a testimonial,
whether her testimonial represents the
truth.
hope you will remember that she Is
q housewife, like yourself. that she has
something to do besides write letters.
that she is woman of moderate
means and cannot afford to write these
letters and pay her own postage.
hope you will enclose stamp SO she can
answer you without loss to herself.
Mrs. Boyle is a very estimable lady
and no doubt you will both profit by
being acquainted with each other.
Should you conclude to try Peruna
for your catarrn I would be very glad
to hear Of the result. l can assure you
that no use will be made OF your let
ter. except by your written consent
Mrs. Boyle very kindly consented to
have me use her letter. which is my
reason for doing so, and you will be
treated exactly as she has been.

about that. Some surprising recoveries

PREACHER HAD TOO MUCH.

Memphis, Tenn, March 1.-The
Rev. Ben Cox, who recently resigned
the pastorate of the First Baptist
church of Little Rock to accept the
pulpit of the Central Baptist church
of Memphis, reported to the police
that he had been robbed of his pocket
book containing 500. 1t is thought
that a man who engaged the pastor in
conversation while he was returning
home from church on a street car, got
the Rev. Mr.. Cox's money.
