Chains to Stop Skidding
Are Increasing in Use

One Of the important developments Of
recent years is the increasing use OF
chains to prevent skid&ng. 1t Is recog-
nized that perhaps the most prolific
cause of motoring accidents is the slip
ping and skidding OF a car as a result
of the lack Of traction afforded by wet
and muddy streets.
The chains. II of standard make,
carry with them a protection against
this form of accident. Often their pres
ence or absence Is a matter of life and
death.
Weed chains are getting a special pref
erence among motorists. and to them is
directly due a big decrease In skidding
accidents

Mouse in Harness.

David Hutton, a native of
Dunfermline, Scotland, had the
credit of being the first person
to harness a mouse and make
the tiny creature a money-mak-
ing factor. His death, however
prevented him from carrying out
his experiments on a large scale.
Though Mr.. Hutton proved
that an ordinary mouse would
average a run of ten and a half
miles a day, ne had one mouse
which ran Is miles in that time.
A half-pennyworth of oatmeal
was sufficient for its food for 35-
days, during which time it ran
361 miles. He kept two mice
constantly engaged in the making
of sewing thread for z1ore than
a year.
This thread mill was so con.
structed that the mouse was able
to twist Irvine and reelIfrom 100
to 200 threads a day, Sundays
not excepted. To perform this
task it had to run ten and a half
miles a day which it did with
perfect ease every other day.

Old Booze, the Magicians.

Old booze. the magician, does
wonderful things; he'll change
the condition of paupers and
kings. Some fagons of whisky
concealed in his frame, the Grip
pie grows frisky, forgets that
he's lame; the beggars are rid
ing on beautiful steeds, the man
law-biding does desperate deeds.
The husband and father who's
kind to his wife kicks up a huge
pother, inaueurates strife; and
then in the morning he coughs
up his fine, and gets a grim
warning to cut out wine. The
man who for mildness is famed
far and near is driven to wild
ness by schooners of beer; with
shot gun or Ratchet we see him
cavort, and doesn't he catch it
when dragged into court! The
thoughtful provider whose kids
were well fed, now lays in hard
cider instead of rye-bread. The
man who was straighter than any
strings look poured gin in his
crater and now he's a crook. The
man who was natty, and groom
ed like a beau, is ragged and rat
ty, an emblem of woe. One held
the truth higher than any town;
booze made him a liar, and bat
tered him down. Old Booze, with
his chalic, doth miracles work;
he ruins the palace, dismantles
the kirk. Industrial regions he
turns to void, increases the le-
gions Of starved unemployed.
The depths and the shadows of
trouble he brings, he leads to the
gallows the victim who swings;
he smuggles the coppers of men
who are blind, persuading the
paupers he's friendly and kind.
And always he's jolly, and blithe-
ly he cries: Join me in my fol-
ly-fools only are WISE"

AT the Old Stand.

In 1912 more than half of the
Republican party, seeding from
the regular organization, was
singing Onward, Christian Sol
diers" and battling for the Lord
at Armageddon.
This year three-quarters of the
Progressive Republicans who
followed Mr.. Roosevelt in 1912
have returned to the Republican
ranks.
The Republican party to which
they have returned is not a re-
generated Republican party. 1t
is the old reactionary Republican
party which they repudiated two
years ago. 1t is the Republican
party of Penrose and Cannon
and Gallinger and Brandegee and
Ebenezer. j. He'll, whose leader
ship in 1912 was the justification
of the Progressive secession.
Even in Pennsylvania, which
Mr.. Roosevelt carried in 1912 in
which he made his most energet-
&c campaign against Republican
corruption in 1914, Penrose is
reelected to the Senate by a plu-
rality of staggering proportions,
and Penrose owes this victory to
voters who were frenzied and ia
1atical in their support Of Mr..
Roosevelt two years ago.
The significant thing of this
election is not that the Progress
ives have returned to the Repub.
ican party, but that they have
returned to the same kind of Re-
publican party that they left in
1912. There is not drop of
Progressive blood in its veins.

elections were triumphs of polit-

DR.. Mccormack Sued.

Frankfort, KY, Nov. 16. Fol-
lowing out the directions of the
recent Legislature, Attorney Gen
eral Garrett today filed suit in
the State Fiscal Court against
DR.. J. N. Mccormack, a secre-
tary of the State Board of Health
to recover $1S, 379.4S, which it is
alleged, was spent without the
authority of the law.
DIR. Mccormack lives at Bow
ling Green, and therefore could
be interviewed in regard to the
suit.
The different items that make
up the total amount sued for are
S2,406.S8 which is :alleged to
have been spent up to February.
1895, and S8,621, which is al
legged to have been spent from
1895 to 1906. There are items
amounting to SIS, 74O.6O and ST.
100, which is alleged to have
been spent for employing attor-
neys without warrant of law.
Two items of $500 which, it is
alleged, went to DR.. Mccormack,
and $500, which is alleged to
have been divided equally be-
tween DR.. J. M. Matthews, Will
liam Bailey, j. A. Sherley, Ches-
ter Mayer, W. A. Quinn, G W.
Gaufman and G. T. Fuller. Most
of these items Of expense it is
claimed will not be recovered
even if they were due, because
they have been barred by the
five years statue of limitation.
All of the items were rehash-
ed many times during the recent
session of the Legislature and
have been published in the pa
pers many times.
A bitter fight has been waged
on DR.. Mccormack by members
of the medical profession, and
while it was said during the leg
islative session that much of the
money may have been expened
without authority of law, still
all of it was expended for what
the Board of Health thought was
for the public good and there
fore it is doubtful it it is recov-
cradle, even if it is found that
DR.. Mccormack is in fault.
