Are not all business men tired? If
not why do we hear so much about
musical comedies and vaudeville per-
formances that are constructed espe-
cially for the purpose of resting and
refreshing the tired business man?
If there is any one claim that has
been conceded for ages past 1t is this:
Fatigue is much more fatal to man
than to a woman. We seldom hear of
a tired washerwoman or tired house
keeper. Nobody ever wrote musical
comedy for tired schoolmarms. 1t has
always been held that II man has to
work at night he must sleep In the
daytime. But everybody knows that a
woman can walk the door all night
with a sick baby In her arms and still
be able to perform strenuous household
duties next day. MANS work is from
sun to sun"-that being the limit Of his
endurance.-Southern Woman's Maga-
zine.

1912, when Daugherty spent his time
and money keeping the Republican
party intact as an organization, he
found Garfield one of those whom he
had to fight bitterly, Garfield being
bent on destruction in Roosevelt's
wake. The elevation of Garfield at
this time, and the ability with which
he was able to turn the party's lead
er's guns against one who had been
regular is viewed with alarm by those
who remained true to the Old Guard.
Outside of Ohio the interference III
the Ohio primary and the domination
by the Progressive leader has created
unrest. The feeling is growing that
Mr.. Hughes is under the absolute
sway of Theodore Roosevelt and is
in every action seeking to win his ap-
proval. Ere long the leaders may be

times it is better to lose than TO win

DYNAMITE FOR MOSQUITOES.
West Haddonfield, N. j., Tries Blasting
and Meets With Success.

West Haddonneld, N. J.-This bor-
ough has found dynamite an effective
weapon TO use In combating mosqui-
toes. A paragraph In the borough year
book, just out, says:
"The residents of West Haddonfield
were for years pestered and torment
ed by mosquitoes which, 1t was learned
upon investigation, were propagated In
stagnant pools between the railroad
and Haddon avenue, 1t was found
practically impossible to drain these to
the street cutters; hence another meth.
cd had TO be employed, and it was de-
cided to sink the water into the ground
Under the supervision of L. 2. Law.
renee heavy charge Of dynamite was
sunk and discharged about twenty feet
under the surface. This caused the
pools to disappear In short order, and
no water has accumulated at this point
up TO the end OF the year."

WHY LABOR is "HuMAN"

The discovery by Mr.. Hughes at
Detroit that the American working
man is a human being would be more
thrilling if the Democratic sixty-third
congress had not seen and proclaimed
the fact, with President Wilson's ap-
-pr0val, on the 18th of October, 1914.
In the Clayton amendment of the
antitrust law, which became effective
On that date, 1t is written that "the
labor of human being is not COM
modify or an article Of commerce."
This enactment was made necessary
by a decision of the supreme court of
the United States, of which Mr..
Hughes was member for TX years.
The law has been truly called la
boris Bill of Rights"
When that great measure was
pending, the party which Mr.. Hughes
represents did not in the main feel
about it as he does now. Most of its
representatives in congress denounced
the Democrats and President Wilson
for "surreudering" to demagogues.
On the passage of the bill in the SEN
ate only seven Republicans out of a
membership of As, and in the house
only al Republicans out OF a mem
bership of 1877 voted with the Demo
Gratis.
Some courage was needed TO pass
the Clayton bill. It corrected many a
politician, gave new law to every law
yer and reversed the practices of the
highest courts. 1t may seem little
bold for the candidates OF reaction
airy party almost two years after the
fact to admit condescendingly that
labor is human, but Mr.. Hughes has
law to back him up, and the Demo
Gratis, led by Woodrow Wilson, wrote
the law--New York World

YIELD TO FLOOD
OF PROTESTS
Democrats VIII Not Lower In
come TP.. Exemption.
RATE ON LOWEST CLASS RAISED

Democratic Caucus Continues Consd-
Grafton Of Committee Amendments
to the Revenue BiIl-salaries OF
Members of Proposed Tariff 5oarn
Estimated Yield of the
New Revenue Measure.
Washington, Aug. 12.-Democrats OF
the senate finance committee, yielding
to flood of protests from the country
and from senate and house members
of their own party, have reconsidered
their decision to lower the exemp,
ton in the income tax law from $4,000
to $4,000 for married and single per-
sons to $4,000 and $1,000 respectively
but voted to make the rate of tax on
the lowest taxable class of income Q
per cent instead OF 1 per cent.
Had the committee declined to yield
on the amendment the Democratic
senate caucus probably would have re.
versed it. The amendment increasing
the surtax on incomes exceeding $2,.
100000 from 10 to 10 per cent is re.
tanned. and there is probability that
further increases in the surtaxes will
be made in caucus.
The Democratic caucus continued
consideration of committee amend
ments and had before it the proposal
agreed on by the committee striking
out the specific excise taxes on mum
tion manufacturers and substituting a
10 per cent net profit tax on the
profits OF ali manufacturers of NUM-
tions and wares thGt enter into mu-
nitions.
the committee adopted an amend
ment increasing the salaries of men,
bers Of the proposed tariff board from
| $500 to $4,000 each.
AS revised by the committee the bill
would yield ali estimated annual rev
enue of $19S,000,OOO as against $780,
100000 as it passed the house. The
net decrease IS due to the change in
the munitions tax, the house method
providing for s72000,O0O and the sen.
ate plan S45,000,OOO

Harding Attaoks shIppIna eIII.

Washington, Aug. 12. - Senator
Harding attacked the ship purchase
bill in a senate speech. He denounced
the bill as "a makeshift, political
consolation prize. a mere excuse for
the political claim OF constructive ac-
complIshment." He added "A verl'
table pandora's box is to be opened up
through this bill, and no man can tell
what will come out OF that box to the
discredit of the government, the in
Jury of honest citizens and the humili-
alton OF the people. 1t is an uncharted
sea of trouble that the government /:

Returns from the primary election
of Tuesday, August 8, were the slow
est ever received in the state. No re-
turns at all were had at the office Of
the Secretary OF State Hildebrant on
the evening of election day though the
vote was very light and count was
completed early The poor record of
the April primaries in the conduct of
the chief supervisor of elections was
made worse in the recent election.
The reason given is that Secretary of
State Hildebrant is angry at the news
papers which have given truthful ac-
counts of the supreme court decision
on his auto tag scandal, and of course
he did not want to aid the newspa-
per workers in any way in getting re-
turns for their readers.

Iceland Is known as LAND of con

comparatively small compass fire and
ice, volcanoes, glaciers and geysers
There is magnificent scenery In its
desolate plateaus. 1t has more than
100 volcanoes, of which the largest is
Hecla, 800 feet high. There are thou
sands of craters in Iceland, the chief
among them being Askya, with an area
of thirty-four square miles.
OF glaciers there are more than 100,
with aggregate areas of about 5000
square miles. The largest Is Vatna.
Not far from Hecla is the so called
geyser region, where there are many
hot springs. The Great Geyser is six
ty feet in diameter, One geyser was
found to have water Mt temperature
of 202 degrees r., which makes it pos
sibly the hottest spring In the world
One-elghth of Iceland Is glacier hid

WILSON CONSIDERING
CROSS-COUNTRY TRIP
Receives Invitations 10 Speak In
All Parts Of the Nation.

Washington, Aug 12.-President
Wilson is seriously considering a
transcontinental trip. Congressional
callers at the White House gained the
impression that he virtually had de-
cided on the step, but officials said
later that his plans for the campaign
still were uncertain and depended
largely upon congress.
Invitations for the president to
speak in all parts of the country, in.
Guiding California, are being placed
on file in case Mr.. Wilson decides to
make one or more long campaign trips.
Some Of his advisers are urging him
strongly to cross the continent, but
others believe he should spend most
of the time during the campaign at
his summer home at Shadow Lawn,
N. J., receiving delegations and at
the same time keeping in close touch
with the government departments in
Washington.
Senator Phelan of California called to
urge the president to go as far west
as California and received word that
a definite reply could be expected in
about two weeks, BY that time the
president expects that 1t will be def.
nitely known when Congress will ad.
journ.
Democratic leaders insisted that the
campaign trip of Charles e. Hughes
the Republican nominee, would have
no effect on the presidents plans.
They said that at any rate Mr., Wilson
would make no extended trips from
Washington until after congress ad
ionrneh.
