SOME ILLUSIONS OF YOUTH
Difficult Task confronts Parent in Un- folding World to Child-Matter
 for Meditation.

The illusions which youth entertains about the things of the world are at once the most appalling and the most delicate things with which older per sons have to do. There is no lodging the fact that the illusions must go. The conscientious mother who has taught her son that to lie is to sin knows quite we'll that when he grows older he will learn that lies are of two kinds, white and black, and that the time will come when he will have to tell white lies, and, because they are so like the black lies against which his mother admonished, he will find 1t hard.
 And the father who looks upon his daughters innocence with pride will shudder little at the thought that time will bring to her some cold ex-
 amples of the duplicity of mankind. | If he is fearful, it is not without req son; for on the parent devolves the
 duty of guiding the disillusioning process. As this is done well or ill.

FAULTS OF MANY SWIMMERS
Most of Energy Which Would Carry Them Along Smoothly, if Applied
 Rightly, Is Wasted.

The trouble with good many swim. mers is that they do not know how to swim. Most of the energy which would carry them along smoothly and rapidly, if properly applied, is wasted in faulty movements.
 Time and again I have seen men thrash away madly for a short space, misusing arms and legs, then stop sud- denly puffing hard and in distress. To such tyros swimming means stub- born fight to keep going, and there IS no doubt that if they tried to swim for exercise, frequently serious harm might come from it. But can this parody of watermanship be considered swimming? Hardly, according to the present-day standards.
 Watch a skilled trudgeon or crawl exponent and note the difference. He will take a graceful dive, strike out un harried, move along without fuss oI furry, rolling gently from side to side and emerge from the water fresh and invigorated, barely breathing hard.
 Rest assured it is not he that will suffer even from daily practice.-Out ing.

MAYER, C0LO., WOMAN

Mrs. Ora Porter of Maher, Colo. suffered for twelve years with stom- ach and liver troubles. Her case was diagnosed as gall stones and she was advised to undergo an operation.
 She got Mayr's Wonderful Remedy in time.

 "T am sending in a few of the names of my neighbors believe will be glad to know of your wonderful remedy. The first took was month ago. I have now taken four bottles and no one could imagine the differ. ence in my feelings. I have had gall stones for twelve years. l was so vel low, the whites of my eyes were even yellow. had yellow jaundice twice then a good doctor was called and said l had gall stones. never had such hard attacks after doctoring with him, but I never saw a well day."

Two beautiful dress hats emphasize the fact that hats large or small or anywhere between may be chosen by milady when she centers her atten- tion upon her summer millinery. The matter of size need only be consid- cred in connection with that of be- comingness. The little hat still holds its own in a glorious company of newly arrived picturesque wide brimmed allurements that pleasingly distract the attention and divide the honors.
 Without doubt the trend is toward the large hat for midsummer. And if a vote might be taken and recorded as to which is the most beautiful of all hats the chances are the big black picture hat would be conceded to be the favorite of womankind-and man. kind, too.

Moreover. the1 | overlook the fact that the Underwood tariff is in effect protective. We neet SO much revenue that the tariffs art made in items as high as protectiv' tariffs of other nations.

NOT A PARTY GAIN
Republican Victory in Chicago
 Explained.
City Never Has Been Democratic. as the Term Is Understood-Fisures of Other Elections Make
 This Fact Plain.

We must advise Republicans not to be misled by the false political pre- lenses in respect to the Chicago elec- tion. If it were true that Chicago IS a Democratic city, the fact that it has elected a Republican mayor by big plurality might be significant, but Chl- cago is not, and, since the organlza- tion of the Republican party. never has been, strictly speaking. Demo- cratic city.
 Three times during the last hfty years Chicago has given plural1tles to Democratic presidential candidates. Tilden carried it in 1876 by a narrow margin, as did Cleveland in 1883. The only time Chicago ever gave Demo cratic presidential candidate an em- phatic majority was in 1892, when Cleveland had lead of 36.OOO ana carried the state. At the election or 1912 Roosevelt and Taft combined had PIE 5000, against Wilson's 12O,OOO. In 1896 the Republican plurality was 56,000; in 1900, 1000; in 1904, llO'ooo' !n 1908, 62,OOO.
 Error as to Chicago's political status arises from the fact that locally IL mas been governed most of the time for st years by Harrison party operating under the Democratic name but hay ing no other connection with the na tional organization. This party has been made up of Democrats, RepuD licans and Socialists, who have co operated in favor of loosely admin istered city government Nobody pu a Harrison has been able to max such a combination under so-caiie' Democratic auspices. When, as wa the case this year, Harrison lost tn Democratic nomination, his persona party had no further interest In De mocracy, and most of its member evidently voted the Republican ticke'
