SOME FEW WORDS REGARDING
DIR FIRST MANAGING EDITOR

There was no sterotyplng plant
when julius Caesar was extant. NO
Mergenthaler sang its song. Octu-
ples had not come along. There was
no ink in reds and blues when julius
Caesar ran the news.
When Julius Caesar needed news
there was no telephone to use. he
had to climb abroad a horse and get
exclusive scoops by force. There
was not then, as we may guess,
good Associated Press.
Because his method thus was crude,
thew buried those he interviewed,
which seems to indicate a lack of fin
or reportorial knack. Still one good
point is clearly spied. His interviews
were not denied.
When julius Caesar edited, exchan-
pes were not credited. When he met
items face to face he grabbed them
quick te-swell his space. Thus nor
mally he came to be the first great
editorial We.
In many another matter, too, ne
did just what we fellows do. He al
ways did the modern stunt. He al
ways put the news up front. He gave
hisstaff assignments toughand kept
the galleys full of stuff.
Though he could not rush news to
nress in Fifteen minutes more or
less. yet he had every other art that
editors must have by heart. Just
scan his tuff. We've got a bunch
you'll say that Julius had the bunch
When Julius Caesars time was
ripe. there was no Limo to stick type.
So Brutus with some other chaps
stuck him Old Roman Style in Caps.

THE MAN WHO KNOWS.

The man who wins is an average man,
Not built on any particular plan,
Not blest with any particular luck,
Just steady and earnest and full OF
pluck
When asked a question che does not
guess"
He knows. and answers mo" or "yes."
When set a task that the rest can'tdo,
He buckles down till he's put thru.
Three things he's learned. That the
man who tries
Finds favor in his employers eyes;
That it yaps to know more than one
thing well;
That is doesn't pay all he knows to
tell
So he works and waits till onefine day
There's a better job with bigger pay,
And the men who shirked whenever
they could
Are bossed by the man whose work
made good.
For the man who wins is the man
who works,
Who neither labor nor trouble shlrks,
Who uses his hands, his head,his eyes;
The man who wins is the man who
tries.

A STRANGE WILL.

Several years ago Charles Louns-
berry, a Chicago lawyer, who at one
time ranked high in his profession,
died an insane patient at the Cook
County asylum at Dunning. Altho
this man died absolutely destitute and
penniless. he left the following will:

Frequently we hear the expression
that men are worse than hogs. This
must be distasteful to hogs, but facts
are stubborn things. To show the
similarity between the acts of men
and hogs toward their kind, we will
state that when hog gets an ear of
corn every other hog will trot after
him, squealing and whining for a
bite; but just let the front hog get
fast in crack and every son of gun
of the hogs will jump on him and tear
him to pieces. 1t is the same with
men. AS long as aman is prosperous
and has money, he can't keep his
friends away with double barreled
shotgun. Just as soon as he becomes
unfortunate and his money has dwind-
led away, he is not only snubbed by
his former friends but they begin to
do all the damage possible. Let a
man start up grade and mankind
falls behind and hastens his ascen-
sion. When he starts down the grade
the world steps to one side, greases
the track and says, '1et him slide"

We want girls with hearts; girls
with tenderness and sympathy, with
tears that flow or others ills, and
smiles that light outward their sun
ny thoughts. We have clever girls
and witty girls and brilliant girls.
Give us consignment of jolly unaf-

girls, with lots of fun and no coarse
ness; girls who can go out and romp
in the snow and wash the snow in

LADIES! SECRET TO
OARKEN GRAY HAIR
Bring Back Color, Gloss and
Thickness With Grandma's
Recipe Of Sage and
Sulphur

Common garden sage brewed into a
heavy tea, with sulphur and alcohol
added, will turn gray, streaked and
faded hair beautifully dark and luxuri-
ant; remove every bit or dandruff, stop
scalp itching and falling hair Mixing
the Sage Tea and Sulphur recipe at
home, though, is troublesome. An easier
way is to get the ready-to-use tonic,
costing about 30 cents a large bottle, at
drug stores, known as "Wyeth s Sage
and Sulphur Compound" thus avoiding
a lot of musa.
While wispy gray, faded hair is not
sinful, we all desire to retain our youth
full appearance and attractiveness. BY
darkening your hair with Wyeth S Sage
and Sulphur, no one can tell, because it
does it so naturally, so evenly. You
just dampen sponge or soft brush
with it and draw this through your
hair, taking one small strand at time;
by morning all gray hairs have disap-
pearcd. After another APPLICATION or
two, your hair becomes beautifully
dark, glossy, soft and luxuriant and
you appear years younger.

URIC ACID IN MEAT
CLOGS THE KIDNEYS
Take a Glass of Salts If Your
Back Hurts or Bladder
BOthers YOu---Drink
More Water

If you must have your meat every
day, eat it, but flush your kidneys with
salts occasional, say noted authority
who tells us that meat forms uric acid
which almost paralyzes the kidneys in
their efforts to expel it from the blood
They become sluggish and weaken,
then you suffer with a dull misery in
the kidney region, sharp pains in the
back or sick headache, dizziness, your
stomach sours tongue is coated and
when the weather is bad you have
rheumatic twinges The urine gets
cloudy, full of sediment the channels
often get sore and irritated, obliging
you to seek relief two or three times
during the night.
To neutralize these irritating acids,
to cleanse the kidneys and flush off
the bOdy's urinous waste get four
ounces of Jad Salts from any phar-
macy here; take a tablespoonful nj a
glass of water before breakfast for a
few days and your kidneys will then
act fne This famous salts is made
from the acid of grapes and lemon
Juice, combined with lithia, and has
been used for generations to flush and
stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to
neutralize the acids in urine, so it no
longer irritates, thus ending bladder
weakness.
Jad Salts is inexpensive; cannot in
iure, and makes delightful efferv-
escenee littia water drink.

three times a night. This is the time
you should consult some physician of
wide experienee---such as DR.. Pierce, of
the Invalids Hotel and Surgical Insti-
tute, Buffalo, N. Y. Send him 10 cents
for large trial package of his new d.
yovery-" Anuric." White him your
symptoms and send sample of urine
for test. Experience has taught DR..
Pierce that +" Anurie " is the most pow
erful agent in dissolving uric acid, as
hot water melts sugar. Being so many
times more active than lithia, it clears
the heart valves of any sandy sub
stances which may clog them and
checks the degeneration of the blood
vessels, as well as regulating blood pres

and life-saver for all big meat caters
