LABOR WIRES KICK AGAINST.
PATTERSON TO DUNNE

Before approving the selection of
Lemuel B. Patterson by the Circuit
Court judges to fill the vacancy on
the South Park board, made by the
death of Edward Tillen, Gov. Dunno
has been asked to give full considera-
ton to the complaint of the Chicago
Federation of Labor.
For many years labor has been
seeking to get representative on the
board but has been ignored by the
judges. The objection to Patterson
is based on his affiliations with the
stock yards crowd and numerous
banks and corporations.

GRAFT STILL

WOR 7 H-W1lLE GRAF SILL
WITH US IF THIS BE TRUE
Good old days of worthwhile graft
for officeholders are not gone, if there
is truth IN an affidavit filed by R. H.
Pratt.
Pratt says he was present at a din
ner at the Chicago Athletic club at
which 20 big Iumbermen discussed
the creation of a pool Of 100000 to
kill the fire limits bill proposed in
city council. He says there was open
talk of seeing" aldermen.
The bill would prohibit new wooden
buildings in certain city area. There
is battle royal over it, with the lum-
Der men on one side and the brick
makers on the other.
H. w. Chandler, mentioned by
Pratt, admits he gave a dinner at
the athletic club, Dec. 81, but de-
clined names of those present. Pre-
viousIy others mentioned by Pratt
had denied being there. Chandler is
treasurer of the RittenhOUse & En-
bree Lumber Co.

A Hutchinson shoemaker has invent
ed a device which he thinks viii do
away with sweaty feet. "Antiseptic
insoles" are being made in large guam
titles at the little shoe shop of H. W.
HALEY, 317-A, South Main street, and
the shoemaker thinks that his invention
is going to make him rich man. The
antiseptic insole is designed to cure
perspiring pedal extremeties, Mr.. Hal
ley as a shoemaker having had more or
less unpleasant experience with shoes
worn by persons afflicted, so he invent
ed his insole. The top layer of his in
sole is perforated with many holes.
There is a space large enough to hold a
small quantity of foot powder between
the top layer of the insole and the bot
tom. The powder which is put in the
insole is a special powder prepared by
the shoemaker and it prevents sweaty
feet. 1t is antiseptic and has no harm

be IN insane asylums in three hundred
years. Why all this increase? Insanity
comes from worn out and diseased ner-
vous systems We are living N haste.
Our nervous systems are too constantly
under strain. What is the remedy?
Not exercise. Exercise never has and
never will rest the nervous system; but
play, which usually includes more or
less exercise, is a nerve tonic
DIR. Curtis, who is the greatest ex-
pert on play in America, says that ev-
cry grown person should have from one
to two hours of recreation every day;
children need more.
He tells of a University of Chicago
professor who was gradually breaking
down and went to his physician for q
cure. The physician told him to take
two hours recreation per day. The pro-
fessor said he couldn't afford to do it;
he did not have time The doctor re-
piled that he could take his choice,
either take the recreation or within six
month time he would break down and
take complete compulsory rest.
The professor decided to take the
physicians advise and in six months
time he was not only not a near-corpse,
he was not only taking two hours recre-
alton daily, but he was doing all the
work he had previously carried and had
added more to it and his work was a
pleasure.

Modern Gypsiss Robbers.

81 read more small-town and county
newspapers in a week than any other
one man in the United States, or prob
ably the world" says the editor of the
that it is my duty to warn kind-hearted
and charitable people that they expose
themselves to robbery when they take
out their purses or pocket books to give
money to gypsies.
Gin newspapers from at least twenty
widely separated sections of the country
1 read reports of rowing bands of gyp-
sizes which are nothing more nor less
than packs of robbers. The women are
the worst, feeling perhaps that their
sex protects them from rough handling
if captured. Approaching town or
village the women separate, some work
ing the business houses and others the
residences. Ali use fortune telling as
an excuse to approach and speak with
men and women. If any money is dis
played the gypsies seize the bills or sill
yer and make away with it. This is
being reported daily in papers all over
the country. In the business sections
of the towns the women sometimes
pretend to make a purchase and while
the merceant is busy, they rob the till.
Many of them are expert pickpockets
and several gold watches and large bills
have been lifted from the merchants
and professional men of the villages.
''The chief of police or marshall
should be called the moment gang OF
these vampires strikes the town. They
should be escorted through the village
without stop and the officials of the
next village warned.
1.-The old-time and practically harm
less gypsy is thing of the past. The
modern gypsy is highway robber Of
pickpocket. Treat him accordingly"

Oshant building, North Main Street.

Normal Notes and Comments
Garden Calendar.

There are yet three or four weeds in
Town. Three of them are on our place
and the other, if there is another, is on
someone else's. Cut it out
1t may be little off the subject, but
have you noticed how scarce the house
flies are this spring? There were
numerous blue bottle flies about for a
time, but the house flies are a minus
quantity. If we remember correctly
we have swatted just two house flies
this spring. When you stop to think
about it, isn't this striking example
of what can be done by cooperation in
a community and among communities?
We doubt whether any cooperative
campaign has ever been more universal
ly waged than the ''swat the fly cam
paign. Long may it wave!
Also swat the weeds.

The word "cure" is seldom used in
