The Standard Oil trust has been found guilty of combination in restraint of trade; in other words of being a trust. Now for a fine, and the old game over again. Itis to laugh. “It’s a pretty modest man who doesn’t think he knows just how to run a newspaper,” says Mary McFadden in the Duluth News Tribune. Perhaps it isn’t modesty; the man may have tried. Henry Vandyke has written two new stanzas which he wants added to “America.” The verses are well executed, but the idea with tampering with the good old song is not proving popular. It is like splicing on a sixth act to Hamlet, or adding a few more paragraphs to Lincoln’s Gettys burg speech. WINNING THE “MAN ON THE FENCE.” Mr. Cole’s chances of election brighten as the close of the cam- paign draws near. It might have been said three months ago that Johnson’s election was prob- able; two months or one month ago it might have been said that Cole’s election was doubtfal; but now the men who make some pretensions to forecasting elec- tion results have named the re- publican nominee as a winner; by a comparatively small plurality, perhaps, but still a winner. The deciding factor in deter- mining the fight has been the un- tiring efforts of Mr. Cole himself. He started out the campaign with everything against him. There was a general apathy all over the state, men did not seem to care who was governor; and he was practically an unknown, while his oppenent had built up a wide circle of friends and ac- quaintances extending intoevery nook and corner of Minnesota, Mr. Cole’s task was to stir the voters from their indifference, creating a party sentiment de- manding a republican governor; and to gain an acquaintance with the people 1 every part of the state which would in a measure offset the personal popularity of the democratic nominee. How successful the Walker man has been in performing this task is told by the dispatches from the towns where he bhas spoken in the last few weeks He seems to be leaving a trail of republican ard Cole enthusiasm behind him wherever he goes. Mr. Cole’s achievement is in converting the doubting republi- can, the man who voted for John- son last election and is not quite sure what' he wants to do this election. Hundreds of these are coming back into the republican ranks wherever Mr. Cole is speaking. And these are the men he is after; he does not need the democratic or ultra-Johnson republican to win, i The Game of Craps. The game of “craps” is an old one. Is the word itself a corruption of the French “creps,” a favorite game in the gambling halls of the Palais Royal in the eighteenth century? Bescherelle says it 'was a game played with dice -and of English origin; that the name was sometimes written “krabs” and the word was spoken when one suc- | ceeded in throwing 2, 8, 11 or 12 at the first cast. English dictionaries shed little light on the subject, and-we do not remember any allusion to the game In novels or plays of the eighteenth century.—Boston Herald. - Shetland Wool. A curious historical legend is con- nected with Shetland wool. Over 300 years ago a, man-of-war belonging to the Spanish armada was wrecked“on one of the islands. /The ‘sallors who escaped taught the natives to make brilliant dyes from roots which they found, resembling those used for like purposes in Spain. Those persons who now wear bright Shetland knit “com- forters” are unconsclously wearing. me- wertos of the “Invincible” armada, ! e : How Trees Are Balanced. A tree grows In perfect balance on every side. When a large branch! shoots out on one side, one of equal, slze or two smaller appear on the other. The roots are balanced In the same way, a large branch on one side being matched by a large root. The center of gravity is thus always perfectly maintained, : Farragut's Plg. Davld G, Farragut was but thirteen years old when he served as midship- man under Porter in the battle of the Bssex agalnst the Phoebe and Cherub, He was taken to the Phoebe as a pris- oner of war, says his blographer, and came aboard crying from mortification, At the same moment, however, a Brit- Ish middy also came alongside with a young pig In his arms. “A prize! A prize!” he was shouting, “Ho, boys, a fine grunter!” It was a plg that had been a pet in the steerage of the Essex, where it was called Murphy. Farragut at once claim- ed it as private property. “You are a prisoner, and your pig, t00,” replied the British middy. “We always respect private proper- ty,” sald Farragut, grabbing the pig and determined to hold on till forced to surrender. “Go it, little Yankee!” cried the old- sters present. “If you can thrash Shorty you shall have your plg.” A ring was formed, and Shorty came at Farragut hammer and tongs, but the American was handy with his fists. He quickly laid his opponent low. The British bluejackets cheered him hearti- 1y, and the pig was declared to be his. Not Flattering. 8. Baring-Gould, the English novelist, had the Dbitter pleasure of reading many not flattering obituarles of him- self. Through an error he was report- ed dead, and the newspapers of his native land declared unanimously that he had left no good work behind. An American editor dined with Baring- Gould in London. The talk turned to the premature obituaries, and the American said, “How did you feel on reading them?” Taken aback, non- plused, the novelist grimly replied: “I felt like a lady who owned a par- rot. This lady's cook came to her one morning in joyful excitement. ‘Oh, ma’am,’ she cried, ‘the parrot has learn- ed some new words.’ ‘Good,’ said the lady. ‘That bird is wonderfully teach- able. It sits and drinks in every blessed word my husband says to me. ‘What does it say now? ‘It keeps a-sayln’; said the cook, ‘ “Shut up, you old fool!”’” Kean and the Showman. An amusing paper in Chambers’ Jour- nal on John Richardson, the illiterate and successful English showman of the last century, contains this story: It was during the earlier and less for- tunate part of his pilgrimage that he numbered Edmund Kean among his company. The old showman was not a little proud of this association and used to give himself some credit for having had a hand in Kean's theatrical educa- tlon. When Macready’s name-was be: coming known in the dramatic world Richardson was asked if he had seen him. “No, muster,” he said, “I know noth- Ing about him; in fact, he's some vaga- bone as no one knows—one o’ them chaps as ain’t had any eddication for the thing. He never was with me, as Edmund Kean and them riglars was.” The Oldest Bank Notes. The oldest bank notes in the world are the “flying money,” or convenient money, first issued in China in 2697 B. C. One writer tells that the ancient Chinese bank notes were In many re- spects similar to those of the present day, bearing the name of the bank, the date of issue, the number of the note, the signature of the official who is- sued it and its value in both figures and words. On the top of these curl- ous notes was the following philosoph- ic Injunction: “Produce all you can; spend with economy.” The note was printed in blue ink on paper made from the fiber of the mulberry tree. One of these notes bearing the date 1399 B. C. is still preserved in the Asi- atic museum at St. Petersburg. The Equinoxes. “The popular belief that storms are more frequent about the time of the equinox, or when ‘the sun crosses the line’ in March and September, re- celves some slight degree of support from the investigations of Huropean sclentists,” states an expert of the weather bureau. “In southwestern Europe March is the stormiest month, while in the British islands and Nor- way January takes the lead in that respect; but, considering Europe as a whole, it appears that storms prepon- derate near the seasons of the equi- noxes.” Good Dog. The braye Newfoundland had just rescued his young master from the bolling surf. “My dog, too,” said L'Oignon pensive- 1y, “once saved my life.” - “Tell us about it,” said Tete de Veau, with eager Interest, “I sold him for $3,” sald L’'Oignon, “when I was nearly starving.” Full Price.

Mrs. Bargainhunter—Yes, I saw it Mrs. Skrimper—Well, it was false. I bought two postage stamps there this morning, and I had to pay as much as ever for them. The Song Bird. They say the birds are timid! Great heavens, to be so small and lovely in a world of hawks and snares and yet dare to sing as if the gods were good! In all the wide creation there is noth- Ing braver than the heart of a singing bird. o w+Yet Both Made Hits.

Be- cause a disordered stomach does not pers mit the food to be Froperly digest.ed, and its products assimilated by the system. The blood is cLiarged with poisons which come from this disordered digestion, and in_turn the nerves are not fed on good, red blood, and we see symptoms of nerv- ousness, sleeplessness and general break- down. It is not head work, nor over phy- sical exertion that does it, but poor stom- ach work.
