explains the Torrens system. Here is his editorial as follows:
 "The Torrens system, in nutshell is this:
 "The state examines the title, sur veys the property, and registers a clear title, accompanied by the plat a certificate is then issued to the owner, and when he sells and makes a deed to the buyer, he surrenders his certificate to the registar, who issues new one to the new owner.
 You can see at once how this process simplifies the transfer of property, cuts out fees for abstracts of title, and abolishes law suits over titles and boundary lines.
 Any dispute about the title or the lines is settled by the State, be- fore the property is registered.
 This clearing of the title and the lines is done by an official examiner appointed for that purpose, and put under bond.
 If any dispute arises, all the parties are notified and the case is laid before court. In New York the case goes at once to the supreme court)
 When this court passes upon the questions raised, they are settled for ever.
 "It is strange that I have urged this simple and most beneficial change so many years without hay ing aroused anything more than a casual interest. r.
 Year after year, neighbors fuss over land-lines, get into fights and then go into law suits.
 Year after year, lawyers are paid to look up claims of title and make costly abstracts.
 Year after year, lawyers are paid to look up chains of title and make costly abstracts.
 "Jear after year, lawyers, jurors and judges are taken up wit hlitiga- tion over titles.
 "All of this expense, worry and bad feeling could be cut out by the adop- tion of the Torrens system.
 But the dear people fill the legis- lature with lawyers, and the lawyers are naturally slow to dry up so boun- tlful a stream of revenue"

PRESBYTERIAN GENERAL ASSEMBLY Eight Hundred Commis- sioners From All Parts of
 U. s. In Chicago.
NO ELECTIONEERING
Because of Action at Last Years Conference No Candidates For Moderator Have Announced
 Ambition.

Chicago, May 20.-Eight hundred commissioners from all parts of the United States and their possessions will gather here tomorrow in the 126th general assembly of the Pres byt.rian church.
 The Rev. John Timothy Stone, D D., pastor of the Fourth Presbyterian church, who was elected moderator at Atlanta, Ga., last year, will open the assembly tomorrow morning in his own new $750,000 edifice near Lincoln park.
 As the moderator mounts the plat form to preside over the afternoon session at which the new. moderator will be elected, Rev. S. Hall Young, D. D.. who spent forty years of his life doing missionary work in Alaska, where he established the first church of any denomination, will present Dr. Stone with a gavel made of the tusks of a walrus which Dr. Young him. self killed in one of his expeditions in the Behring sea.
 Because of the precedent establish ed last year in the election of Dr. Stone as moderator from the floor of the assembly, without any preli- minary electioneering, no aspirants to the office of moderator have ap- peared. In previous ysars the pre- assembly scenes were very much like those attending those before nation al political convention.
 An automobile tour of Chicago, through it's beautiful resident and congested factory district, will be one feature of the entertainment provided for the commissioners by the local committee.
 The big fight of the assembly's ses- sions will revolve around the in depreciation of that portion ill last years report of the board of home missions. which says: "That while in fullest sympathy with every efort to revive. strengthen and perpetuate the country church, and with every move ment to evangelize and Christianize the rural population, nevertheless the department of church and coun- try life should be discontinued as soon as practicable"

ALLEGED FORGER
 POSES AS PREACHER
Texas Officers Seek Young Man Who Recently Held Re'lVal at
 Dewitt.
Stuttgart Arkansawyer.)

Early Saturday morning officers here received word to arrest ana hold l.. A. Sanders, young man who about two months ago appeared at Dewitt, and claimed to be a bap- fist preacher, and held very sue cessAul revival there in connection with the local pastor of that church.
 The order to arrest came lronl Texas, where it is claimed ne IS wanted for forgery, and that the of- ficers of the Lone Star state had traced him to this county through the meeting he had held at Dewitt
 Officer Mahle, accompanied by Sheriff LeFargue, searched the great CT part of the night for him, put were unsuccessful
 He had been at the Tranqula hotel about 4 o'clock in the after- noon, registered, and asked that a room be served for him, but ne failed to put in an appearance any time later in the night to claim lhe room, and it is thought that some person probably learned that ne was being sought by the officers, and had tipped him off to the fact, and that he had left town.
 Although working as a Baptist ln Dewitt, it is claimed that he did not make himself known to either the Baptist minister, Rev. Greanleaf, nor any of the members in this city, either during his meeting at Dewitt or on his retlEn to this city.
 The officers made frultless search Saturday for the man, and are now confident that he left town, but are unable to learn how, as all. trains were watched for his departure.

Disease Due to Germs

All diseases, not only infectious disease, but all other diseases -solds, throat troubles, intestinal troubles are all dIe to implanted germs. These germs, once in the body, multiply by millions. Nature provides for their eXtermination. but sometimes is un- equal to the task.
 When Nature begins to lose you soon feel the toxins or poisons-you head aches-your tongue is coated you are dizzy, woozy, stupid, hal sick-then sure enough sick.
 The Bile is clogged and must be released before you get relief, Bile is the disinfectant that stops the multi plication of germs. Releases the Bile and the trouble is relieved.
 The old-time Doctor who had no re- gard for your comfort, would give

 Nowadays such strenuous remedies are taboo. But nothing has ever re- placed this old-time-t tired remedy. Science has been working for years to take the gripe and nausea out Of IPodophyllin and now in PoDoLax you have the old Bilestarting power of Podophyllin without the grlpe and nausea.

Gives Off Ozone.

People who live in damp localities particularly near undrained land ara apt to think there is no help for them save in removal. They are mistaken Successful experiments have shown that it is possible to materially i'm. prove the atmosphere in such neigh. borhoods by the planting of the laurel and the sunflower.
 The laurel gives off an abundance of ozone, whilst the sulflower is pot. ent in destroying the malaria condi. tion. These two, if planted on the most restricted scale in a garden or any ground close to the house, will be found to speedily increase the dry ness and salubrity of the atmosphere

MANAGING PUGS
 BRINGS IN COIN
Men Who Handle Fighters Grab From 15 to 50 Per
 Cent of Earnings.
(By Frank G. Menke)

New York, May 19.-What is the exact rake-off for the manager of a successful prize fighter? is ques tiOn that we wish some punching person would answer for us some day. We're curious.
 AS far as we have been able to figure the thing out through bit of sherlocking, a manager grabs off from 15 to 50 per cent of the in- come of his protege. In the case of some men like Ritchie, Kilbane, Dundee, Gunboat Smith, Jess Willard, Battling Levinsky and other we'll known punching persons whose earn ings are rather large, it must mean a nice wad annually for the mana gers.
 Jimmy Dunn, manager of Johnny Kilbane, took the featherweight champion under his wing long before Kilbale was known outside of Cleve- land. Dunn saw a big future for Kill bane and he hooked him up for a long term agreement whereby Dunn was to get certain percentage of all earnings. Dunn, you see, had noth- ing to lose and lot to gain. It may be stated in sort of offhand man. ner, that Dunn gained considerably
 Dunn, back in the days before he attached himself to Kilbane used to think that beef stew and pork an, with an occasional ham an was a meal fit for any king.s But in these days Dunn thinks he's cheating the restaurant if he sits down to meal that costs less than $2.
 Dan Morgan is said to have made about $75,000 through managing fighters. Morgan brought "Knock- out Brown to the fore, and in a little over four years Brown made some thing like $120,OO0 in the ring, ac- Dan got something like $30,000 out of it.
 Morgan has made small fortune through Battling Levinsky, and the other five or six men in his present "string" are bringing him handsome returns. The best of it all, from Morgan's viewpoint, is the fact that he's gotten quite a bit of fame as g manager and doesn't have to scout around for more pugs to handle. They seek him out and beg to snuggle under his wing.
 Before Morgan got into the busi- ness of managing punch swapping persons he was window trimmer il a department store, at which occupa tion, he drew down in one year about as much money as he makes ,M 8 month now.
 Jim Buckley has garnered smal fortune through managing Gunboa Smith, the leading "white hope" Dal McKetrick, manager of Frank Moran who meets Jack Johnson in tho championship battle next month, is due to make a killing" for himself through that one fight. if Mora- takes the title from Johnson ant continues McKetrick as his manager Dan will make so much money tha he can afford to get chummy witt Vincent Astor, John D. Pittsburgh Andy, and a few other plutes.
 "Scotty Monteith now is on "easy street" because of the money Johnn! Dundee has made for him. Harry Pollock. manager of Freddy Welsh has grown wealthy. Tom Nolan, once manager of Bat Nelson, has 2 fortune laid aside. Tom Foley, who has managed champions and nea, champions can retire and still sup port a few automobiles.
 Oh, yes, the life of a manager o' a pug is the life where one grows fat and rich. Without work.

soarce. There are not nearly as many blonds in the world as there are dark er women and man is the sort of an animal that wants something different from what every other man has. That
 may be one reason why man will be
 more attracted by a blond than by brunette. Some men.
 This sounds reasonable and the rreatest argument in support Of It IS thot the women themselves seem to rc,liye fl. There are hundreds of vol ,u1ccr bionds and a woman does not 70 to all of the trouble with peroxide md things for nothing. The dauEh- ters of mother Eve know. One doesn't Ind blond women turning themselves ito brunettes but one does hear of cnses just the reverse Why is this? 1t must be because they believe that the blond type is the more attractive to men.
 Right here is where we are going to beg leave to differ with the great New York turist. We will admit for the sake of argument that there is al. ways Q woman at the bottom of mana t,, ubles and we will admit that In ,.Iat purliculav branch ot trouble witn M...c.. tilv yuose !s iuiiAiI'uf' t"s oa- ,...e court, luJors., VL Inese "o i,.... are u.oi,us. 1 liat is We VIII aoha'l t.,4t ,..ey ivvA Iit>c DIOnos from " nc'~ t..v ucar Uiy JudSc sils. 6u' We are ,,.!,.ug lo slukc our iUput"tiOn "s c...>.uI vuscr> er lnAl at least ha1u oa t.,se u., vlve court Divnds afe 'oiuh- t.sls unu nut regular biunds.

AS judge ot troubles lhe learned jurist in New York who Is quoted as saying that the blond woman Is tn" gJeat maker of domestic trouble In ibis world may be all right. AS T judge of troubles. But when he starts in to lay all of the domestic trouble to the blond women he seems to Dc stretching his functions as jurist a hi! too far.
 We are In no position 10 compare the virtues and vices of blonds and brunettes. knowing so little about either type. but on the face of 1t thc learned judges statement does not sound good.
 The judge Is very emphatic. He says whenever you get to the bot tom of the case you find 1t Is not only O woman. but blond woman. who ;las made all of the trouble"
 There are good many men in the world who will undoubtedly agrcc with the first part of the quotation about who is at the bottom of all the trou- ble. They inherit that idea from their great forfather Adam who. like big coward. laid all the blame on poor Eve. And men have been shifting the burden and the blame onto the daugh- ters of Eve ever since. It is ungallant of course but men will side step the responsibility every time they get T chanes and insist that 1t was all the the woman's fault.
 But here we have man narrow ing things down to certain type ot woman as the root of all evil. He doesn't say all women. he simply says blond women.
 This seems hardly fair of the judge. but he does seem to have bit of logic ou his side when one comes to look back into history R bit.
 Certainly Cleopatra was blond and she did make a lot of trouble. Helen of Troy, another trouble maker. was blond and Lucrezia Borgia and Marie Eashkcrtself and lot of other women who have been more or less famous as trouble makers were blonds.
 But what does all of that prove: Does 1t prove that the blond woman is naturally trouble maker or does 1t prove thnt just because there arc less blonde than there are brunettes in the world that a man will make . bigger fool of himself over blond tan he will over dark woman.
 w~ do not like to differ with n iearned jurist who certainly has had experience. or more properly. has beard the experiences of others. hut 1t would almost appear that the fault iles not with the blond women 30 much d It does with the men who mako fools of themselves. and incl d@ntly q tho women.
