ids "Republican."
Behind the Free-Trade Hearse.
The alleged Republicans, who joined
hands with the Democrats, in fighting
the Payne-Aldrioh law (and their sup
porters) are a very, very small part of
the grand old party, fortunately. They
are no more Republicans, in the strict
sonse of the word, than are those
Democrats in Congress who openly
plead and worked for Protection for
industries in their repective localities.
It is funny to hear Democrats taking
about Republicans following their
"party machine" and "voicing plat
form and principles," when one con
siders the long march of the Demo
cracy behind the Free-Trade hearse.
They have learned nothing by a long
succession of hard knocks on that
proposition.—Tifiln (O.) "Tribune."

In the Old Germanic Wilderness.
Leaving Mummelsee on a misty
morning, you enter a green underworld
of strange dew bedlainoud brilliance,
skirt the head of a deep southward
looking valley and emerge upon a
sunny open plateau beyond Eckle and
;ook down upon Wlldsee, circled by the
3ark pines of an untouched forest that
Itretches away to the blue and distant
hills. It Is easy here to Imagine your
self back In the heart of the old Ger
manic wilderness, in the heroic days
when Ilagen slew Siegfried with a
coward's blow. The morning sun glints
upon bright spear tops among the trees
and the wind brings snatches of rough
war songs shouted by barbarian voices.
Your heart swells with the lust of bat
tle and the chase, and if you have
German blood in your veins it calls
hack through the dark middle ages to
that dim and mystic youthday of the
world when heroes met at the Raven
na Schlacht. Within the hour you
find yourself back in the twentieth
century among motorcars drawn up
beside the hostelry at Ruhestein, where
the Hohenweg drops into the common
place and crosses the government ma
radam before climbing the steep side
of the Rothe Schliffkopf.—From "A
Black Forest Pathway." by Frederick
Van Beuren. Jr.. in Scribner's.
Verdi and LSismarck on Titles.
Tile composer Verdi was offered a
title of nobility by King Victor Em
manuel. It was intended that lie should
be created Marquis or Comte do Bus
seto, after the estate upon which he
lived. The composer refused the offer
energetically. He considered that Verdi
was somebody and that the Marquis
de Busseto would be nobody.
Even Bismarck was unable to parry
a blow of this character. When the
young emperor broke with him he
conferred upon him the title of Duke
of Lauenbourg. Bismarck received the
parchment with this exclamation:
"A pretty name! It will be handy
for traveling incognito."
Some days after a parcel arrived at
Varzln bearing the nddress "Mme. la
Duchesse de Lauenbourg."
Bismarck, to whom it was delivered,
being then at table, arose and, offering
the letter to his wife, remarked iron
ically:
"Duchess, enchanted to make your
acquaintance!"
Faithful to His Trust.
I was waiting near the elevator in
the factory building for my friend to
come down when I noticed a small boy
sitting in one corner of the hall hold
ing a large, thick sandwich. He eyed
the sandwich lovingly for a long time,
then he carefully lifted off the top
slice of broad, took out a piece of dill
pickle, ate it and replaced all as be
fore. In a few seconds lie again re
moved the top piece, extracted a piece
of pickle and a piece of meat and re
placed the top. Again and again the
performance was repeated until ail the
pickle and almost all the meat were
gone, the sandwich, however, appear
ing Intact as in the beginning.
"Why don't you eat up your sand
wich and not pick at it in that way?"
I asked the boy with some curiosity.
"Why," lie answered, looking up
with great innocence, "it ain't my
sandwich."—Woman's Homo Compan

Where Women Swim Best.
"The Korean women are the best
swimmers in the world." said a life
guard. "The Korean pearl (Tiving is in
their hands. They swim—they don't
boat—they swim out to fhe pearl fish
eries of Quelpart, lugging baskets with
them. After this swim of half an hour
they dive down fifty feet and fetch up
queer one shelled pearl oysters as big
as babies. They dive till their baskets
are full—the baskets are corked to
keep them afloat—and after three or
four hours' work they swim back
homo with their catch. The big one
shelled oysters are valuable as pearl
mines and as food too. A half dozen
Koreans will sit down to an oyster as
gayly as you or I sit down to a broiled
lobster. Sometimes when the great
shellfish Is eaten raw it quivers and
moans slightly as the knife is plunged
into It."—Philadelphia Bulletin.
The Man and the Lion.
"When I was once in danger from a
lion," said an old African explorer, "I
tried sitting down and staring at him,
as I had no weapons."
"llow did it work?" asked his com
panion.
"Perfectly. The lion didn't even of
fer to touch me."
"Strange! How do you account for
it?"
"Well, sometimes I've thought it was
because I sat down on a branch of a
very tall tree."
Very Queer.
"My husband has been out late every
evening this week attending important
*lub meetings."
"Yes, so has mine. They belong to
the same club, you know."
"Why, how queer! My husband says
he hasn't seen your husband in six
months!"— Cleveland Leader.
The Way She Dressed Him.
"What do you want to bo when you
grow up?" was asked of a small boy
by the visitor.
"Oh," said lie, "I want to be a itan,
but I think mamma wants me to be
j a lady."—Ladies' Home Journal.

Autumn Arbor Day.
HAIL TO THE TREES.
"Patient and generous, mothers of mankind.
Arching the hills, the minstrels of the wind,
Spring's glorious flowers and summer's balmy
tents,
A sharer in man's free and happier sense
The trees bless all, and then, brown mantled
stand
The sturdy prophets of agolden land."
Daring May of last year meetings
were held at the White House in Wash
ington for the purpose of promoting
the conservation of our natural re
sources. These meetings were attend
ed by many of our leading statesmen,
scientists and captains of industry. In
the opening address the President
said:
"We began with an unapproached
heritage of forests; more than half the
timber is gone. We began with coal
fields more extensive than those of any
other nation, and with iron ores re
garded as inexhaustible, and many ex
perts now declare that the end of both
coal and iron is in sight."
The ultimate failure of the supplies
of iron and coal is not more of a menace
to the future of our nation than the
gradual destruction of the soil by floods
and freshets and its exhaustion by im
proper methods of farming. We de
rive most of our food from the fields
and the streams, from the garden, the
orchard and the forest. The want of
fuel may bo supplied by the use of
water power to generate electricity
that can be changed into light, heat
and motive power. On the other
hand, it takes decades of growth to re
produce an orchard, or ji forest, and
ten thousand years to form soil a foot
in depth.
It is claimed that forests help to con
dense the vapors of the sky into clouds
and rainfall. They surely aid in regu
lating the flow of the water in our
streams and rivers, and in lessening
the size and frequency of the floods
and freshets which carry off silt and
soil and thereby diminish the fertility
of the land.
The value of trees for shade, for
beauty, for fuel, for timber and for
other economic purposes should be
emphasized by every teacher. The
planting and care of trees, their pro
tection from fire, insects and other
enemies, the wonderful processes of
budding and grafting should be taught
in every school. The sin of robbing
or marring a tree, a shrub or a flower
unless it has something to give which
one needs, should be pointed out again
and agin. Verily, there is abundant
reason for observing Arbor Day in the
fall, as well as in the spring of the
year.
To perpetuate the custom of observ
ing Arbor Day at that season of the
year when all the schools are in session,
FRIDAY, OCTOBER 22, 1909,
is hereby designated as Autumn Arbor
Day; and all who are connected with
the schools are urged to observe the
day by the planting of trees and by
other suitable exercises.

, | a Relief for Dyspepia. If the
Remedy Fails it Costs
i Nothing.
To unquestionably prove to the peo
ple that Indigestion and Dyspepsia can
' be permanently relieved and that Bex
all Dyspepsia Tablets will bring about
' this result, we will furnish the medi
cine absolutely free it it fails to give
satisfaction to any one using it.
• The remarkable success of Rexall
' Dyspepsia Tablets is due to the high
degree of scientific skill used in devis
ing their formula as will as to the care
in their manufacture, whereby the well
' known properties of Bismuth Subnitrate
and Pepsin have been combined with
r Carminatives and other agents.
Bismuth-Subnitrate and Pepsin are
constantly employed and recognized
1 by the entire medical profession as in
valuable in the treatment of indigestion
1 and dyspepßia.
3 The Pepsin used in Rexall Dyspepsia
3 Tablets is prepared by a process which
3 develops its greatest efficiency. Pep
sin supplies to the digestive apparatus
one of the most important elements of
3 the digestive fluid, and without it the
3 digestion and assimilation of food are
j impossible.
The carminatives possess properties
' which aid in relieving the disturbances
and pain caused by undigested food.
r This perfect combination of these in
" gradients makes a remedy invaluable
for the complete relief of indigestion
and dyspepsia.
We are so certain of this that we
