A Pack of Card*.
The ordinary playing cards of today
are derived from a stick game sup
posed to originated in this coun
try. Fifty small sticks are a pack. The
"game" was originally for the player
to divide the sticks rapidly with his
two bands, the opponent guessing
which 1 and held the larger number.
Owners of sticks spent rainy days in
carving them. The Asiatics borrowed
the game and carved more elaborate
counters out of Ivory. Those with dif
ferent carvings grew to have different
values. Arranging them in groups of
fours made it necessary to add two to
the original number. Then thin slabs
of Ivory began to be used.
For centuries after this all playing
cards wore hand painted, at first on
ivory or metal, afterward on card
board. The pictures, at first legendary
heroes and ladies, gradually became the
fixed, wood faced caricatures we now
know, and these, coming back to Amer
ica in their westward journey around
the world, find our Pacific coast Indi
ans still juggling the same kind of
sticks tlieir forefathers used.—-New
York World.
The Word "Starvation."
The n ord "starvation" was introduc
ed into the English language by its
coiner, Henry Dundas, afterward Vis
count Melville. It was originally used
by him in a speech in parliament on
the American debate in 1775 and was
immediately caught up and applied to
himself in a political nickname, so that
he was known thenceforward as "Star
vation" Dundas."
"1 shall not," such was his declara
tion, "wait for the advent of starva
tion from Edinburgh to settle my judg
ment."
Before the time of Dundas "starve,"
"starving," "starved" and "starveling"
were in use. but hunger or famine rep
resented lhe state of starvation.
Although this word has now an es
tablished place in our vocabulary, it
was at first vigorously opposed by
many, and on just grounds, as of hy
brid formation. The root "starve" is
old English, while the ending, "atlon,"
is Latin, it does not appear in any
English dictionaries until the year 1809.
l)ei> Sea Flub.
Great forests of seaweeds cover the
bottom of tlie ocean and reacli from
the greatest depths to the surface. In
these forests there is life more diversi
fied than in the primeval forests of the
tropics. Spiders and wormlike animals
of enormous size, infusoria?, crabs, sea
urchins, shells, crustaceans, starfish,
turtles and millions of other living
things of all kinds find tlieir food in the
equally varied plant life of the deep
sea.
A curious circumstance connected
with deep sea fish is that none of these
hus ever been brought up alive. Re
cent deep sea explorations reveal the
fuct thai the ocean still contains im
measurable treasures which await de
velopment and utilization by human
inventiveness. The most fertile acre
of cultivated land is a sterile desert
compared with one acre of the surface
of the deep sea bottom.
Wet Shoe*.
The usual—and the wrong way—of
treating wet boots is to take them off
and put them on the fender or the radi
ator to dry. This method spoils the
boots. Too much heat cracks and hard
ens leather.
Another wrong way is to stand them
on their soles anywhere to dry.
The proper way is to place the boots,
solos upward, near enough to the fire
to dry slowly and properly, but not to
steam during the drying.
The soles should always be turned
upward, even when the boots are only
a little wet, for this way enables the
air to reach the wettest part of the
leather first.—American Queen.
T l<* Colohnuh of lilioden.
The Colossus of Rhodes, a bronze
statue, was 105 feet high. It was made
by Chares, who, aided by an army of
workmen, consumed twelve years in
its construction. It remained in posi
tion in the harbor of Rhodes for sixty
six years and was thrown down by an
earthquake B. C. 224. It lay on the
ground 894 years and was sold to a
Jew for old metal. He carried away
900 eainol loads, or about 720,090
pounds, of bronze.

WHAT OUR BOASTED INDEPENDENCE
MEANS TO HIM.
Political Democracy and Indnntrlal
Autocracy Cannot Co-cxlst—No Man
Can Continue Klulf Slave and Half
a Freeman.
There nre a convincing roll and vol
ume to the words, "Triumphant De
mocracy." They sound well. Hut the
author' of this phrase overlooked sev
eral somewhat Important considera
tions. Democracy is not yet triumphant
even In America. After it has gained
control of the country in which it is
supposed to have reached its highest
development, predictions about its rul
ing the world will be more to the point.
Such an idea at present is but a dream
of hope. Democracy has its hardest
battle yet to fight—right here in Amer
ica.
America, as a nation. Is leading a
dual life. It Is preaching democracy
and practicing autocracy, like a tem
perance lecturer who takes a drink of
whisky to give inspiration to his
words. For 126 years but one political
philosophy has been taught in the
United States—the philosophy of free
dom, equal rights, "the right to life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
It has covered newspaper pages and
resounded from public rostrums and in
legislative halls. The doctrine has been
laid down in courts; schools have
taught it; books are full of it; the na
tion is saturated with it. Judging by
our political standards, every Ameri
can must be free and equal in his po
litical rights to every other American,
lie must be exercising liberty and pur
suing happiness unhindered. Every
body, theoretically, has an equal voice
in the government. Each citizen is an
uncrowned sovereign.
This is one side of American life.
There is another. Interests involving
the lives ami happiness of thousands
are in the hands of one man responsi
ble to nobody. He has as absolute
control within his sphere as any auto
crat now on earth or as any autocrat
who ever existed. Ilis employees are
his subjects, owing him closer and
stronger allegiance than they owe to
any government. Their time and their
energies nre his to do with them as he
pleases. He cannot decree that one of
these subjects be beheaded. That is
not necessary; our modern methods are
not so crude. The autocrat of today
can control his subjects without any
such revolting brutality. It is usually
sufficient to deprive the subject of his
means of livelihood and thus make
him his own executioner. This the
autocrat of today has ample power to
accomplish. The insurgent subject can
be cast out, an exile in the industrial
world. He who controls your means
of livelihood controls your life.
"I will not do this thing," says the
"free and independent" citizen em
ployee, asserting his proud preroga
tive. "It is against my own best in
terests und the interests of my coun
try."
"Very well," replies the industrial
autocrat. "I have no further use for
your services. You may go."
"Whither shall I go?" inquires the
"free and independent" citizen, finding
his freedom rather embarrassing at
the very first step. "I know no busi
ness but this. My life has been spent
in learning it. No other means of live
lihood Is open to me. Y'ou control this
branch of industry absolutely."
"Your troubles are nothing to me.
This business is my business. Do as I
say or go."
The "free and independent" citizen
does as the industrial autocrat says.
He does it absolutely and unquestion
ingiy thereafter. A "kicker" is not
appreciated in the Industrial world
when the autocrat to whom he is sub
ject Is the target for bis protests.
When the "free" man may be sent into
the world without an occupation at the
whim of an autocrat to whom ho owes
allegiance, it behooves the "free" man
to please the autocrat. In other words,
the "free and independent" American
citizen employee must of necessity be
the willing and submissive slave of an
industrial autocrat.
Usually the demand to do this or
that tiling concerns the business of the
autocrat only; usually, too, it is a rea
sonable demand—at least from the
standpoint of the autocrat. Everybody
concedes that the autocrat has the
right to conduct his own business in
his own way. The law upholds him.
Public opinion is not adverse. It is
not sufficiently enlightened, or, if one
cares to take the opposite view, It has
learned better. The important fact is
that the industrial autocrat is able to
exact unquestioned obedience from the
"free and independent" citizen em
ployee. It may be more or less im
portant to consider that the obedience
may take the form of using the em
ployee's literary skill to write for pub
lication in a groat newspaper an article
that he knows to be false, misleading
and vicious. To be sure, the autocrat
docs not think it so. Perhaps he does
not know enough to think straight up
on such questions, or his interests may
lie in n different direction. At all
events, tlie hired literary skill express
es the views of the autocrat, not of the
writer. The employee may be called
upon to take an unconscionable advan
tage of a business rival, to falsify cor
poration records or destroy them in
order to carry out or cover up a con
spiracy to defraud, to twist the law so
as to cover up or permit some villainy.
When the "free and independent" citi
zen becomes an employee, bis con
science is one of the instruments be
turns over to the Industrial autocrat.
Of course the citizen employee lias
the right to vote nnu hold office. He
may listen to political speakers paint
his proud position among the peoples
of the earth. Indeed, he may find hap
piness in practicing the forms and con
templating the philosophy of freedom.
But ho cannot blind himself to the fact
that in America industrial absolutism
is sot over against political democracy.
Can they live on in harmony? Abra
ham Lincoln said no nation could con
tinue to exist half slave and half free.
Can any man continue to be half a
slave and half a freeman?
It is only within the last quarter of a
century that this issue has begun to
shape itself sharply In the United
States. Twenty-live years ago indus
try was so chaotic—or anarchistic, if
you please—that no one man in that
field had a power that was especially
dangerous.
The industrial autocrat necessarily
has absolute control over a large pro
portion of the citizenship of the coun
try. It is becoming most difficult and
unprofitable to shift from calling to
calling. We are rapidly reaching a
point where industrial autocrats will
have absolute control over a majority
of the citizens of the country. Ameri
can citizens are becoming industrial
independents, subjects, vassals, serfs
or slaves, Just as one views it. In
other words, a large section of the
country's citizenship has a double nlle
gianee, which is becoming more and
more sharply defined. On one side the
allegiance is to a political organism
built on the lines or on the principles
of freedom—an organism that he re
spects more or less and loves with a
greater or less degree of warmth. On
the other hand, he owes alleglunce to
an industrial autocrat who has power
over his livelihood—over the happiness,
if not the very existence, of himself
and liis family. He appeals to the gov
ernment, if he have intelligence enough
to feel his position, and finds the gov
ernment impotent before the might of
the industrial autocrat. It cannot save
Its citizens from the exactions of pow
erful business combinations. But he
finds the autocrat able not only to defy
the government, but to reward and
protect those who serve him well.
Peace, honor and plenty are in store
for those who do the bidding of the
king.
In the citizen's dual allegiance his
narrow self interest and his closest
and strongest ties are to the industrial
autocrat. In the silent but everlasting
contest between democratic govern
ment and industrial autocracy the citi
zen with dual allegiance is necessarily
on the side*of the industrial autocrat;
hence the industrial autocrat constant
ly gains in power. Ills dependents
become more numerous as well as
more closely bound to his fortunes. In
the social evolution of today the indus
trial autocrat's star is in the ascend
ant. If his power continues to grow in
the future as it has grown in the past,
he will rule absolutely. the enfeebled
government, and we will have political
as well as industrial autocracy, for the
industrial autocrat will control the
democratic republic. That government
which is controlled by an autocrat is
an autocracy, no matter what its nomi
nal form may be.
I do not mean to imply that America
has come to this already, but the seeds
have been sown. The plant is even
growing with that trend. It is as cer
tain as that night follows day that the
citizen cannot continue Indefinitely in
his dual allegiance. There are too
many points of contact, and at every
point it is a clashing contact. No man
can be a good subject of an industrial
autocrat and at the same time a good
citizen of a democratic republic. The
interests he must serve are antagonis
tic—fatally, irreconcilably so. Our po
litical and industrial philosophies must
be harmonized. If America would re
tain political democracy, it must also
have industrial freedom. * * *
We now live in a decade what they
lived in a century 1200 years ago. Our
industrial feudalism is rapidly giving
way to industrial centralization. Al
ready we have one man in the world
of industry with greater power than
Louis XIV. ever had in the world of
politics. A nation more powerful than
the whole of Europe in the day of
Louis takes this man's word as finan
cial gospel. The whole industrial
world trembles before him.
Where is this going to end? Is a
man with the control of industry with
in his grasp, with an organization so
centralized as to be responsive to his
every impulse, going to be foiled by a
many headed political organization pur
suing a more or less abstract ideal in a
haphazard and desultory way? It
makes little difference whether this
new order of industry is a pure au
tocracy or an oligarchy with a sort of
presiding autocrat. It hus the power
and solidarity of interest to overmas
ter the loose and unmanageable politi
cal organization. In the present indif
ferent temper of the people there is no
doubt that the industrial autocracy
will continue to dominate the nation.
As time passes it must gain complete
control. * * ♦
I have no remedy to suggest. In
deed, I would be a sstge if I could de
vise one to fit the case. What I want
to lay emphatically before the reader
is the fact that American citizens are
fast acquiring a dual allegiance, the
demands of which are absolutely
clashing and incompatible. At the
same time an industrial order is grow
ing up in this country essentially an
tagonistic to the political order that we
have been building for more than a
century and a quarter. Our economics
sanction tills industrial order—alien
to our political philosophy, alien to our
institutions and menacing to our fu
ture security, it leaves us hopelessly
powerless In the face of a threatened
perversion of our most cherished
ideals.
Industrial autocracy cannot live on
terms of peace with political liberty.
It is impossible to have both at once.
We must have Industrial and political
liberty or industrial and political au
tocracy. Which we shall have depends
upon the Intelligence, patriotism and
essential ideals of American citizens.—

Early .Spring at the Seashore.
In a hundred ways conditions at the
seashore have changed. The time was
when one never considered that the
shore could be visited until a hot season
of July and August, first because of the
supposed miserable weather, and bo
cause there were no hotel accommod
ations fur those who dared to visit, nor
were there any attractions in the amuse
ment line. Of course the Southern and
Florida resorts wore in bloom, but in
May and June the weather was far from
delightful, and for the busy man who de
lights. iu a day or two's outing during
these charming months Florida was out
of the question. Then Atlantic City
came to the front. A superb climate,
magnificent hotels, entertainment gal
ore. and all within three hours of N w
York, and at the shore too, what more
could von ask.
Atlantic City at the present time is
the Ideal spot, its temperature averag
ing in the seventies, when overcoats and
heavy clothing are unnecessary. The
ocean breezes are most exhilarating and
bracing, and the board walk is thronged
with a happy crowd. Down at inlet two
score of craft are in commission for de
lightful pleasure cruises along the shore.
The several big ocean piers are alive
and entertainment Is provided for young
and old in the form of theatricals, con
certs, cakewalks, basket ball games,
dancing and like diversions.
The bazaars on the board walk are
all open and from the inlet to Chelsea
there is go Incessant liveliness. At
lantic'. City was made famous by its mar
vellous hotels, and every one of ihe
beach front hostelries numbering fully a
score and accommodating fully 20.000
guests. Is open for reception of visitors.
These hotels cater to your every de
mand. and nothing is left undone which
will make yon happy and comfortable.
The cuisine in every instance Is equal
to that of the fashionable metropolitan
houses, and when you consider the fact
that Atlantic City Is but three hours
distant from New York by the New Jer
sey Central, it can be readily imagined
that Atlaotic City is the leading resort
for Mav and June, as well as the sea

The Want en of the Body.
Every seven days the blood, muscles
and bones of a man of average si/.'
lose two pounds of woruout tissue.
This waste cannot be replenished and
the health and strength kept up with
out perfect digestion. When the stom
ach and digestive organs fail to perform
their functions, the strength lets down,
health gives way, and disease sets up.
Kodol Dyspepsia Cure enables the stom
ach and digestive organs to digest
and assimilate all of the whole
some food that may be eaten into the
kind of blood that rebuilds the tissues
and protects the health and strength of
the mind and body. Kodol cures Indiges
tion, IKspepsla and all stomach trou
bles. It is an ideal spring tonic. Sold
by Grover's City drug store.
Do You Enjoy
What You Eat?
You can eat whatever and whenever you
like if you take Kodol. By the use of this
remedy disordered digestion and diseased
stomachs are so completely restored to
health, and the full performance of their
functions naturally, that such foods as would
tie one into a double-bow-knot are eaten
without even a "rumbling" and with a posi
tive pleasure and enjoyment. And what is
more— these foods are assimilated and
transformed into the kind of nutriment that
is appropriated by the blood and tissues.
Kodol is the only digestant or combination
of digestants that will digest all classes of
food. In addition to this fact, it contains, in
assimilative form, the greatest known tonic
and reconstructive properties.
Kodol cures indigestion, dyspepsia and all
disorders arising therefrom.
