paper In Which to Kill Himself.
Friends Know No Reason.
New York, Nov. 3,-Gllbert Edward
Jones, son of the famous George
Jones, publisher of the New York
Times and himself once the owner of
that newspaper, shot himself to death
iu the bulIilliiK his father many years
ago had left him, the old Times build
ing at 41 I'ark row. lie was slxty-alx
years of asu and very wealthy. No
reason for his act was Riven, and his
relatives were at a loss to Imagine
why he had taken his life.
Mr. Jones was president and secre
tary and treasurer of the Park com
pany, the corporation which owned
the building In which he killed hlm-f-elf
In his offices on the seventh floor.
Ilu had just been to lunch and return
ed shortly after 1 o'clock. Ho went to
Ills private oillce and lay down on a
couch. No one except another olllcer
of the corporation was In the place at
the time. Hut he heard the shot and
with others from the hall rushed in.
Mr Junes had placed the upturned
muzzle of a revolver of large caliber
In his mouth and then tired a bullet
that plowed up through Ills brain and
cracked the bones of the skull. An
examination showed that the point of
the bullet had touched the scalp with
out breaking It. The employees of the
company rushed Into his private oillce
and found Mr. Jones prostrate on his
couch.
After hunting a half hour for a phy
sician an elevator man found Dr. Wol
fred Nelson, physician of the Astor
House, and summoned him to the side
of Mr. Jones.
Dr. Nelson at once pronounced the
man dead.
Business acquaintances of Mr. Jones
Insisted that his affairs were In good
condition, so that there was no cause
growing out of them for his act. The
relatives also said that they could find
no reason whatever for It
But it was thought that Mr. Jones'
illness was probably the cause of his
suicide. He had suffered much from
lumbago, and ns bo was getting nlong
in years It was thought by some of
those who knew him that his pain had
become unbearable.

THl: SWAOOKK HOUSEMAID'S COSTUME.
The white apron Is no longer a suf
ficient uniform for the smart nurse
maid who follows her charges about
the streets. The up to date maid now
wears in the house a snow white
frock of duck or linen, and in the
street this is covered by a dark blue
or gray cape coat like the one pictured.
Her little bonnet has a dignified
veil to match, and the white mull bow
at her throat ls dignified and respec

The Pajama Girl.
When cold winter nights come the

Pajamas for girls are cut exactly

terials are daintier in coloring and
often In weave. The pretty suit seen
In the cut Is made from duckling
fleece, a kind of flowered flannel which
Is very attractive and washes splendid
ly. The fleece is patterned with
Mother Goose figures, and tho ground
work is a fascinating shade of pink.
Mothers who approve of silk under
wear and can afford such luxuries for
their children as silken pajamas have
a lovely selection of suits from which
to choose. Many of these models are
of quilted silk embroidered In oriental
designs.
Chum With Your Opposite.
.It Is n tine idea for the business girl
to chum with her opposite. If you arc
inordinately inclined to gaycty or lazl
uess a serious, intellectual friend will
tone you up.
If you need toning down In the way
of nerves and a too strenuous ambi
tion Hud a friend who loves physical
exercise. Jokes, dressmaking and
housekeeping.
If you are a natural born anchorite
try to hobnob with tho girl who gives
fudge parties and sees tho world from
another tingle.
That's the sensible way to lower tho
average, don't you think sot
C PRESIDENT DAVILLA.
Honduran Executive Hpving 1
Trouble With Gen. Valladares, )
San Salvador, Nov. 3. It Is reported
. here that General Jose Valladares, for
I mer governor of Amapala, Honduras,
i who was deposed from oillce by Pros!
; dent Davllla and recalled to Teguci
1 galpa, has returned to Amalpa In order
to hand over his command to his sue
1 cessor and has openly declared him
self against the government. It Is nlso
1 rumored that he has attacked the
American consular agency and has
committed other excesses.
Jose Maria Valladares has a record
for hatred of foreigners, especially
Amerlcnns. When the new American
minister, Mr. McCreery, who succeed
ed Philip Brown, reached Amapala
early last month President Davllla
wired the commandant, then Valla
dares, to receive Mr. McCreery offi
cially and accord him proper honors.
Vnlladares replied that ho would not
receive "any of Taft's dogs with any
honors."
The Ancient Use of a Kiss.
A Roman womim In the nncient time
vas not allowed to drink wluo excepr
It were simple raisin wine, nnd how
tver she might relish strong drinks
she could notIndulge even by stealth
-first, because she was never intrust-
! pd with the key of the wine cellar
and, second, because she was obliged
dally to greet with a kiss all her own
as well as her husband's male repre
Dntatives, down even to second cous
ins, and as she knew not when or
where she might meet them she was
forced to be wary and abstain nlto
pether, for had she tasted but n drop
Iho smell would have betrayed her.
Bo strict were the old Romans In this
respect that a certain Ignatius Mor
turius is said to have slain his wife
because he caught her at the wine
cask a punishment which was not
deemed excessive by Romulus, who ab-
solved the husband of the crime of
murder. Another Roman lady who un
der the pretense of taking n little wine
i for her stomach's sake and frequent
Infirmities indulged somewhat too free-
' ly was mulcted to the full amount of
her dowry.

ARE YOU,
GOOD WOMAN, AT
YOUR BEST ?
Many beautiful women find themselves
losing good looks and health slowly fad
ing from a cause unknown to them. She
has no appetite, and the food she docs eat
seems to do her no good. Why f If you
should ask her what tho trouble is, she
would say, ' I am just tired out." But
the real cause is constipation and its result
ing condition bad blood. Just think
what habitual neglect of the bowels means
sickness instead of good health; ner
vousness instead of vigor; cheerfulness
replaced by depression , happiness by misery.
A week's use of Smith's Pineapple and
Butternut Tills will work wonders. They
will regulate the functions of the liver and
the bowels, immediately unload the conges
tion, cure the constipation and cleanse tho
blood of impurities. These little pills will
soon make you feel and look at your best.

The Era of New Mixed Paints !
This year open. with a delugo of now mixed paints. A con
dition brought about by our entorprising dealers to got some kind
of a mixed paint that would supplant CHILTON'S MIXED
PAINTS. Their compounds, being new and heavily advertised,
may find a sale with uio unwary.
T,,;i MIXED PAINTS
Is JADWIN'S PHARMACY.
There aro reasons for tho pro-minence of CHILTON PAINTS
1st No ono can mix a better mixed paint.
2d Tho painters declare that it works easily and has won
derful covering qualities.
3d Chilton stands back of it, and will agree to repaint, at his
own oxpenso.overy surfaco painted with Chilton Paint that
proves uofectivo.
4th Those who have used it aro perfectly satisfied with it
and recommend its use to others.
Bleeding Pish to Keep Them.
Tho Norway flslicr cuts and bleeds
flflh the moment they aro caught Ho
cute the throat or bleeds them from
tho tall. Fish eo finished keep far
better. Fish are best Just before
spawning time; thereafter they be
come poor, then watery and unlit.
Some folk nre grouched by herrlnR
and mackerel. No mntter how fresh
tho fish the people vomit, purge and
brook out In bold hives. It Is not un
common to find dead oysters mixed
up In the heap. These dead ones nre
liable to poison the live ones.
The Acreage Problem.
The "acrcago problem" Is very
simple. An acre measures 20D feet
each way, containing 43,681 sqtiaro
feet Now, It a plot of ground has a
frontage of 354 feet. Its depth must
be as much as 354 Is contained Into
43,681 sqKare feet, equalling 123.39
feet, which will bo the depth. To
prove it, multiply 351 by 123.39,
which equals 43,681. Very simple,
isn't it? U Glbhlns In the New York
World.
i Bullocks and a Bull.
Ho was on Irish barrister; there-
. fore he must perpetrate a bull. Ad-
dressing tho jury In tones of deep
emotion, he said: "It will bo for you
to say, gentlemen, If the defendant
, shall be allowed to come into court
with unblushing footsteps, with tho
cloak of hypocrisy In his mouth, and
draw these bullocks out of my cllen"
pocket with Impunity."

IS ILLNESS
H
in your family you of course call
a reliable physician. Don't stop
at that ; have his prescriptions
put up at a reliable pharmacy,
even it it is a little farther from
your home than some other store.
Ytu can find no more reliable
store than ours. It would be im
possible for more care to be taken
in the selection of drugs, etc., or
in the compounding. Prescrip
tions brought here, either night
or day, will be promptly and
accurately compounded by a
competent registered pharmacist
and the prices will be most rea
sonable. O. T. CHAMBERS,
