when the police dragged him out Of his lair and sent
him back to his steamheated fat.
Plenty tasted for 40 days, and done it in
caves and in deserts that matter. Most of the
fasers in olden times did it for righteousness sake.
Nowadays the purpose is usually the cure of some

Few of these extreme diet cranks carry out their
brave plan caves particularly in cold weather. It's
well known if a is determined to fast, he
stick it out longer at home in warm bed. The cold
makes a hungry; and if he exercises to warm
the exercise makes him hungry In fact, everything
works together to keep a from enjoying good
fast
Which probably it should be- Maybe nature

cured by fasting for prolonged period. But that
doesn't prove much except the enormous vitality of
dyspeptcs little rational attention to diet will
do more good than all the starvation in the

TAKING THE WHOLE ROAD.
Jefferson City, Mo-. Democrat
Tribune.)

AS the number of the automobiles
on the highways is multiplied by the
price reductions of the past year
or two, the complaints become more
than ever numerous of the people
who hog the whole road.
The owner of his own car, in the
great majority of cases. is reason
ably careful. 1t costs him good
money, and he has no liking for re-
pair bills.
With hired chauffeurs the case is
frequently different. They are
young fellows who have often ac-
auired little prudence of their own.
They would not have TO pay for a
new car If their machine was
smashed.
Also they require great deal Of
skill, so that they can turn out the
least possible distance. and make the
turn at the last possible moment
before collision. They come tearing
down the middle OF the street. 9th
er cars go away out on the side.
The speeder keeps rejoicing along
in the center of the road. thus aban-
Goned to his sole use. and congrat-
ulates himself that his daring Oper-
alton saved him from losing two
seconds by making curve.
Owners Of a car that is operated
in such a fashion should realize
what coarse and brutal appear
ance such manners make.
With a great many men, the line
up at the bar of some road house
along the route is more than half
the fun of the trip. A dry run
without any wayside irrigation is
fruitless excursion to them. One
treat leads to another. By the time
the party is on the way home the
driver is treading on air. His con-
fidence in his own accuracy and
nerve is vastly enhanced. He also
will not turn out until the last sec
end. and then for the fewest posi-
BILE inches.
The social end Of a great many
motor trips lies in the hand OF the
women Of the party. If they can be
made to realize that liquor and au-
tomobile operation do not work to-
gether. and impress this feeling on
their men friends, a good many
trips would not end up in the ditch.

sixties. not a single execution on
account of mere participation in an
uprising that cost hundreds of thou
sands of lives, took place. The lead
er of that instruction of the dis
memberment of the union, died of
old age in Mississippi. The nation
was great enough to abstain from
any act OF private vengeance, and
every loyal American is glad that
this is true.
The death of Madero is one epi-
sOde in a whole train of acts of vi
olence beginning with Madero's up
rising against Diaz. He who rose by
the sword fell by the sword For
the United States government to join
in this work of wholesale murder
by turning Huerta over to a Carran-
20 firing squad without giving him
chance for his white alley, would be
an act of petty vengeance unworthy
of a great republic.
Everybody knows that the word
Justice" has been blotted out of the
Mexican dictionary. and that a trial
under the auspices of Carranza's
military dictatorship would throw
no light on the cause of Madero's
death. 1t would more probably lead
to another revolution, for which the
United States government would
have TO assume responsibility.
This government can not afford
to have any hand in government by
assassination.

MAKING CHANGE.

The United States minis are work
ing overtime to coin new nickels,
dimes, quarters. etc. This is to meet
the scarcity of small change, sup
posed TO be due TO business revival.
One of the minor inconvenience
of life is the difficulty of making
change. Most people who have the
paying out of money like to do it
with as few bills and coins as pos
sible. This saves work for the pay
master. but involves considerable
running around 10 get bills changed.
If a man hands a $500 or $1,000
bill TO his wife to pay household
charges at the door at home. she
finds that few tradesmen can break

ming up accounts, which on the
whole tends TO extravaganza. Peo-
pie will buy things on credit that
they would not take If they had to
pay cash out of the pocket.
Those who go into remote districts
for vacations find the difficulties Of
making change quite acute. The
natives are apt TO be short of
ready cash, though they seem 10 live
comfortably enough. 1t is some
times as hard to pass a $500 bill as

small change are obtained periodic

pocketbooks are pretty small, and

money in the larger bills. The roomy

THE INDIVIDUAL CITIZEN.
COhio state Journal.)


To be true citizen one must be a
good man. He must be honest, de-
cent, sincere, upright, diligent. All
these characteristics belong to the
individual and so it is the individual
that makes the true citiZen-not the
lawyer, the doctor, the farmer, the
mechanic, the merchant, the preach
er. Ones private character is the
soul of his public character. Some
people don't believe this and think
a rascal, a thief, a drunkard, a pro-
fame swearer lazy loafer may be a
good citizen, and yet if the citizenship
of this country was made up of such
individuals, it would go to ruin in a
few years. All the suffering and
misfortune that il bears now comes
from these undesirable citizens. And
yet, don't you think that many of
these people occupy positions OF
power and influence and the popu-
lar will bows before them? What
the country demands are manly peO-
pie and it behooves every we'll mean
ing man to be one of them.
