Bryan Once Called
Crazy By Alienist

WASHINGTON, Jan. 23.-William
Jennings Bryan told one on himself
here the other day.
He said the story had not been pub
llshed for twenty years and is, there
fore, new.
When Bryan first ran for President
years ago, New York newspaper
sent detailed description and analy-
sis of him to a noted alienist, not
revealing the name of the man in
question.
Not knowing whose case he was
analyzing, the noted specialist re-
turned the verdict:
"This man undoubtedly is crazy"
The newspaper then connected in
print the patient and the analysis, to
the discontinue of the noted alien
list.
Bryan said he learned a lesson
therefrom, namely, never to answer
hypothetical questions, which he said
the alienist did.

Weasel, "and I'll never hunt for him

Young Pocket Gopher heard what
Mr.. Weasel had said and came out
to view this terrible creature of the

Weasel.
"This is young Pocket Gopher. His
home is here in the earth"
"Oh, because he has pocket on
each side of his jaw where he can

looks as though he had double feet"

Accused By Ouija Board
Woman Asks $4,000

CHICAGO, Jan. 22.-Heretofore
the ouija board has been considered a
harmless thing, but suit for $40, 900
damages filed in Lcckport, ILL.,, indi-
Gates that it must be classed almost
as deadly weapon. 1t has set fami-
lies against families, invaded and dis
rupted lodge, cast suspicion upon
people heretofore above suspicion
and made an awful mess of every-
thing.
The new bungalow of Mr.. and Mrs.
Albert Yost, of Lockport, is furnished
with one of these ouija boards. The
Yosts go in quite bit for spiritualism
and the occult stuff.
Near neighbors are Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Walter, and until quite recent
ly, they and the Yosts were the closest
friends, attending the same church,
parties, lodge and all that sort of
thing.
A few days ago Mrs. Walter an
nounced her candidacy for oracle of
the Royal Neighbors' lodge and nat
urally supposed her dear friend, Mrs.
Yost, would give her enthusiastic sup
port. To her amusement, Mrs. Yost
announced her own candidacy.
Now for the cause: On the night
of November IS, the Yost bungalow
was entered by burglars and looted of
a small sum of money, bunch of
groceries and twenty-five pounds of
raisins.
On Thanksgiving night the Yosts
entertained party of friends and
brought out the ouija board. Some
one asked the board: "Who robbed
this house?"
The planchette hesitated, it is said,
and then spelled out: "The Walters
family"
Soon after this Mrs. Yost was elect
ed oracle of the Royal Neighbors. Mrs.
Walter and all Lockport began to
talk, especially about twenty-five
pounds of raisins in this dry weather.
Mrs. Walter visited her attorney and
suit was instituted against Mr.. and
Mrs. Yost and the ouija board for
SANDER.

Tiger Won Duel With
Deschanel 26 Years Ago

PARIS, Jan. 23.-The fight be-
tween M. Clemenceau and M. Des-
chanel for the presidency recalls that
they already had men on another field
that of ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS years
ago. Then, when Clemenceau was
neither a deputy nor senator, he
wrote an article in his newspaper, La
Justice, criticizing M. Deschanel for
an Interpolation made against the
Brisson ministry on the law against
anarchists.
NJ. Deschanel, offended by the
terms of the article, sent his seconds
to NJ. Clemenceau, who was noted as
duelist. The men met with swords
and Deschanel received a wound over
the eye which was so severe that the
seconds would not permit the duel to
continue.

Prize For Safer Planes
Is Offered By France

PARIS, Jan. ga prize of 1907
600 francs has been offered by the
"Union for Security in Airplane Ser
vice" to the inventor of a device
which will show tendency to make
air navigation in a heavier-than-air
machine safer than at present. Con-
ditions place no limit either on the
principle involved or the nature of
the invention, which may affect the
motors or carburetors or which may
be a stabilizer or a device for max
ing landings more secure. Competi-
ton is open to inventors of all ma

DRINK HOT TEA
FOR A BAD COLD

Get a small package of Hamburg
Breast Tea at any pharmacy. Take a
tablespoonful of the tea, put a cup of
boiling water upon it, pour through a
sieve and drink teacup full at any
time during the day or before retiring.
1t is the most effective way to break
cold and cure grip, as it opens the
pores of the skin, relieving congestion.
Also loosens the bowels, thus driving
cold from the system.
Try it the next time you suffer from
cold or the grip. 1t is inexpensive
and entirely vegetable, therefore safe
and harmless.
