CONSORT PICKED BY ROYALTY
Somewhat Summary Method of Mating
as 1t Is Done in the Kingdom
of Siam.

Kings of Siam apparently do not be-
lieve IN the wisdom Of allowing single
women to drift unattached about the
country. In certain districts AFTER
girl has reached an age where her Sc
curing for herself a husband is con-
sidered doubtful, she becomes
daughter of the king" That Is, the
king takes upon himself the tssk OF
settling her suitably in life.
His process is quite simple, and to
the point He proceeds to the Sla-
mese penitentiary and looks over the
various prisoners. There is a law In
Siam that any prisoner can obtain his
release by marrying one of this class
of girls, and, naturally enough, any
pisoner whom the king picks out is
not likely to be backward about con-
senting to the ceremony. Nor does 1t
make any difference if he is married
for the men of that country are not
restricted to one wife.
AS far as can be learned, there is
no allowance made for the inclination
of the girl in question. She has failed
in her mission in life as far as she
herself is concerned, and she must
abide by the decision of the king.

seems almost superfiuous. Born in
Salem, ILL.,, in 1860, he was graduated
with highest honors from Illinois col
lege at Jacksonville in 1881 and re-
ceived his masters degree in 1884.
In 1883 he was given the degree of
LII. B. by Union College of Law, Chi
cago. After practicing law in Jack
sonville and Lincoln, Neb., he served
as a member of the SIND and 53rd
congresses. Having written the "sil-
yer plank" for the Democratic ma
tional convention of 1896 and made
a sensational speech, he was nomi-
mated for president, but was defeated
by William Mckinley. Nominated
again in 1900, he was again beaten by
Mckinley, and then established the
Commoner and made a tour of the
world. Nominated a third time in
1908, he was defeated by w. H. Taft.

PREVENTING THE PREvENrAeLe.
S. r. MORSE. Editor.

PREVENTING THE PREVENTRBLE.
It is, Of course, worse than useless
to worry about unpreventable misfor-
tunes. II is worth while, however, to
differentiate between the preventabIe
and the unpreventable. 1t is equally
worth while to work for the proven
ventlcn 81 the preventable. And one
is surprised TO find how many of the
losses and sufferings of mankind
might be prevented If proper time and
thought were given to them. Losses
of human life through unnecessary dis
eases, destruction of food products
through preVentable causes, sacrifices
of property through avoidable fires
they constitute an appalling chapter
on social ineficiency. Only an approx
innate monetary value can be placed
upon human life. The insurance
companies make such estimates, but
they are convincing only when consid-
cred impersonally. To say that mil
lions are lost to the people of Amer
lea through unnecessary dying.
through the ravages of preventable
diseases, is to state an economic fact
unfeelingly. 1t is. none the less, a
fact. The property loss by fire in
the United States for 1911--the latest
authentic figures obtainable - was
1925, 100000 And any expert will say
a majority of those fires might have
been prevented by precautions OF
quite an ordinary character

Locomotive engineers sit for hours
at the throttle in a cramped position.
the mind is taxed to the full limit, the
body at a terrible strain. The per
centage OF deaths from kidney disor-
der is very high among locomotive
engineers and it is asserted that this
is due in large measure to the con-
tinual jar of the engine. With a
view to ameliorating these conditions
an inventor has contriyed portable
back rest made of canvas. which is
attached to the seat, while the upper
end is secured to coil springs, which
are hooked to the ceiling of the cab.
The springs relieve the engineer of a
great deal Of Earring, permit him to
occupy more comfortable position,
and consequently make him more eff
cient, particularly on long runs.
