given to the ancient Hellespont from
the two castles that protect the mar
rowest part of the strait and that

The Rose and lts Thorn,

This is the old legend Of how the
rose came by its thorns: One day In
paradise Cupid was flying over gar-
den of roses. Blossoming there was a
beautiful pink rose. Cupid bent to kiss
it when a bee hidden in the flower
stung him on the lip. Crying with
pain, Cupid fed to Venus, his mother,
demanding vengeance. Venus, to paci-
fy him, gave him a bow strung with
captive bees and set the stem of the
rose with stings torn from the poor
bees. These stings now are called

Students to Lose Votes.

No university student may vote in
Madison who comes here solely for
educational purposes, who is depend
ent upon his family for support and
who has not the intention of perma-
nently residing in this city.
BY decision written by Justice F.
c. Eschweiler and handed down by
the supreme court. the great majority
of University of Wisconsin students
win be DISTINGUISHED. Under it. only
those may vote who can show that
they are not dependent upon their fam
lies, nor the residents Of any other
city aud who propose to make Madison
their home
This was the decision In the case of
Fred Seibold Of Camp Douglas. II is
reversal Of Judge Z. Ray Stevens of
this city. Justice Eschweiler wrote :
I'VE find thar Seioold registered in
the university from Camp Douglas,
where his parents reside and to which
place he returns as opportunity per
mits, and who is dependent in part, at
least, upon that home for his support.
His attendance at the university is
for u temporary purpose merely. We
are Of the opinion that the defendants,
Wahl and Riley. were clearly right I'M
der the facts as presented to them in
denying Seibold the right TO vote, and
the order Of the circuit court Overrul-
ing the demurrer TO the complaint
must be reversed"
The court sustained the decisions OF
Judge Stevens in the cases of John
Gross and Albert Asbahr, in which il
was clearly shown that they were self.
supporting and 'emancipated" s-0Hi
their families. Both may vote.
All cases We're actions against cleo
Jion officials who refused to allow stu
dents 20 vote.

NUMBER OF HORSES
IN STATE GROWING
Increase of 116,068, Worth ST.
1892 Shown in the Last
Ten Years.
QUALITY ALSO HAS IMPROVED
Gains Made Despite Inroads of the
Automobile and the Big Exporta-
tons Made Since European
War Sta ted.

Madis0n.-The impression that the
automobile is causing "a decline in
horse breeding as an industry in Wis
consin seems to be general, but it Is
erroneous, according to statistics COM
piled by A. $. Alexander of the Wis
consin agricultural college.
While it is true that automobiles are
increasing in numbers and that about
112,0O0 will be licensed in Wisconsin
this year, horses also are increasing in
the state, says Mr.. Alexander.
January l, 1906 horses numbered
595,932 head, valued at S9165 each,
and on January l, 1916 they had in
creased to 712,000 head valued at 1924
each, or a total increase of 116,06S
horses worth S1,439,243. During the
same period. mules in Wisconsin de-
creased IN number 1885 head, but the
5000 left. increased In value S43.16
each In 1915 the horses numbered
705,000 So that there has been an in
crease Of 1000 during the year.
The increase in horses throughout
the country Is the more remarkable
when il is remembered that hundreds
of thousands of horses have recently
been exported for war purposes, while
appropriations of horses for breeding
have practically ceased.
Improvement is also noticeable in
the quality of our breeding horses.
Purebred sires have increased from
LII in 1915 TO 1,St4 in 1916, and the
percentage Of purebred sires to grade
and scrub sires in the state is now
59.2. compared with $50 in 1916, and
50 per cent in 1907 In 1916, 322 new
purebred sires were enrolled.
Nineteen other states have followed
the example set by Wisconsin 1906 by
tnstituting similar stallion laws. The
effect OF these laws in this and other
states has been to reduce the ranks
OF the grade and scrub sires. TO in
crease the number Of purebred sires,
TO nnpruye the soundness Of breed
ing stock, to prevent fraud in horse
registration and selling, and to benefit
the housekeeping Industry in many
other ways

Paste for Cleaning.

Here is something that all house
wives do not know: To one pint of
boiling water add one and one-half
ounces Of pure white soap cut into
shavings; boil for ten minutes after
the soap is thoroughly dissolved. Cool
in a china or glass dish. If put into
a glass jar and covered tightly it, will
last two weeks. This paste will cleanse
kid gloves and satin slippers, remove
spots from wooden goods, and fresh
ink stains from carpets. 1t should be
always at hand in the kitchen. To re-
move paint from clothing saturate the
spots two or three times with equal
parts of ammonia and turpentine and
then wash out in white soapsuds.

The People Pay.

The people of the United States are
paying war prices for a great many ar
ticles of everyday use because those
articles are not produced at home. In
other words. they are having a prac-
teal demonstration at so much per of
the democratic free trade idea. The
idea is that we ought to buy where we
can buy cheapest. 1t may have worked
in the old days. but it doesn't work
now, because all the cheap sources of
supply are closed. If the old Repub-
lican idea of protecting industry in our
own country had been followed con-
sistently for the last ten or fifteen
years we should have had factories
busy in the production of all these
things, and our people would be able
to purchase them at reasonable prices.
Right now the mistake of abandoning
the theory of protection is costing the
people of this country more than ii
costs any European nation to do its
part in the war.-Yakima Republic.
