LOW BIRTH RATE A BENEFIT Revolutionary Statement Made . by English Official. London, July 18.—That a low birth rate is a benefit, and that, as a direct result, people are better fed, better mannered and better clad, is one of the revolutionary statements made by Dr. Rigby at a recent meeting of the Preston borough council, when the lowest birth rate on record was re- ported. Thousands of superfluous children were brought into the world, said Dr. Rigby. They were absolutely useless and a source of nuisance and trouble. Woman Ends Life at Sea.

BULLS VERY NUMEROUS Prediction Made by Triumphant Boost- ers That Grain Will Go to Figures Unheard of in Market History—De- pressing Crop News From All the Wheat Raising Countries a Strong Factor in the Advance. Minneapolis, July 18. — Nothing could stem the tide in wheat in the Minneapolis pit and prices went rush- ing to a mew high point all around. The bulls yelled when September crossed $1.17 and sold to $1.17%. De- cember passed.the $1.16 line by a frac- tion and July hit the big round figure of $1.25. The climbing began with the clang- ng of the bell. Farmers stood about watching the market go up. Minne- apolis has been full of farmers from North Dakota, who are bulls in wheat and have profits of goodly size. Most of them express themselves as be- lieving that still higher prices will be reached. The bears freely predict that wheat will go lower soon, but at that few of them have the courage to sell it in the face of a crowd of triumphant bulls, who predict that wheat will go to figures unheard of in market his- tory. ) The Canadian grain trade is much disturbed over reported losses to crops in Western Canada. Russia is send- ing out less favorable crop news. Ru- rope is strong. When the market closed some of the traders carried wheat over long. Others sold, fearing that a rain over the Northwest might break the mar ket. KILLS HIS WIFE'S BETRAYER Shocking Murder Committed in ‘a Philadelphia Cafe. Philadelphia, July 18.—Josiah Brown, a waiter in a cafe in the cen- ter of the city, was bending over a table pouring out drinks for three men and two women, when a man slipped up behind him. Placing one arm around Brown’s neck the stranger slashed his bead with a razor in his other hand and then severed his wind pipe. The cafe was instantly in an unroar with men and women fleeing from the vicinity of the prostrate waiter. Po- licemen entered and arrested his as- sailant and then took Brown to a hos- pital, where he died later. “That man stole my wife from New York. He was my friend and he ruined my home,” said the prisoner to the police when told of Brown’s death. He says his name is Harry Percival. Caring for Boy Hero. New York, July 18.—Louis Spreck- els, head of the Federal Sugar Refin- ing company of Yonkers, N. Y., has taken under his care William School- meyer, fifteen years old, who nearly lost his life in May by saving a teu- year-old boy from drowning in the Hudson river off the Federal refinery dock. Young Schoolmeyer accom- plished the rescue while a dozen men stood helplessly by. Well Digger Suffocated. Hampden, N. D, July 18.—James Bacon, a well digger, met death by suffocation near bere. Bacon had lowered himself into the well to fix machinery being used in digging and was overcome. He had remarked that there was gas in the well, but he did not appear to fear it. AVIATOR FATALLY INJURED Eugene Ely Drops Several Hundred Feet at Winnipeg. ‘Winnipeg, Man., July 18.—Egged ou by the derisive jeers of a large crowd at the exhibition grounds Eugene Ely attempted to make a flight in an aero- plane, taking his life in his hands. Twice he went up in the teeth of a biting gale and landed successfully. The third time he attempted a longer flight and dropped from a dis- tance of several hundred feet. His machine lies broken to yieces on the prairie, while he himself was picked up unconscious and was hurried to the hospital, where his condition is reported as precarious. Opportunities and Limitations. The world is full of opportunities. The world has a place for all kinds of people. 1f a man look no higher than pickax or hod, but be industrious, the world can use him. The opportunities for the mun who has spent the least time in school, getting only the prac- tical studies, are better and higher than come to,him of the hod, but such a man soon reaches his limit. He ig on a short ladder. The one who has laid the foundation of a broad general education as well as a technical one has, given intelligence, industry and loyalty. practically no limit to his ca- reer.—K. U. Graduate Magazine, A Hard Problem. A certain debating society is discuss- ing the question as to which is the an- grier, the husband who goes home and finds that the dinner is-not ready or the wife who has dinner ready and ‘Wwhose husband does not come home. It is believed that the debate will end in a draw. 3 i Not Always. | Teacher (of unight school)-What do you understand by the term “life sen- tence?” Give an example of one, Shaggy Haired Pupil-“I pronounce you husband and wife.”—Chicago Tribung, > _'FUNERAL COSTUMES. ‘Their Extravagance Curbed by Law a¢ One Time In England. Sumptuary mourning laws were for- merly found necessary in England to restrict the extravagance of the no- bility and their imitators in the mat- ter of funeral costume. At the end of the fifteenth century it was laid down that dukes, marquises und archbishopg should be allowed sixteen yards of cloth for their gowns, “sloppes” (mourning cassocks) and mantles; earls fourteen, viscounts twelve, barons eight, knights six and all persons of in- ferior degree only two. Hoods were forbidden to all except those above the rank of esquire of the king's house- hold. In the following century Margaret, countess of Richmond, mother of Hen- ry VIL, issued an ordinance for the “reformation of apparel for great es- tates of women in tyme of mourn- ings.” So it seems that men and wom- en have met in the extravagance of BOrTOW. Even 200 years ago London trades- |- men found that court mourning seri- ously affected their business. Addison relates that at a tavern he often met a man whom he took for an ardent and eccentric royalist. Every time this man looked through the Gazette he ex- claimed. “Thank God, all the reigning familles of Kurope are well” Occa- sionally he would vary this formula by making reassuring remarks respect- ing the health of British royalists. Aft- er some time Addison discovered that this universal royalist was a colored silk merchant, who never made a bar- gain without inserting in the agree- ment, “All this will take place as long as no royal personage dies in the in- terval.”—London Chronicle. MENTAL INFLUENCES. The State of the Mind Has a Direct Effect Upon the Body. A good deal is said in these days about the effect of mind on matter in the way of the cure of disease, but less is heard about mental influences as a cause of bodily ills, yet it is an old truth that the state of mind has a direct effect on the body. The gloom and depression caused by worry and anxiety create a morbid condition of the physical system. It is impossible to feel well physically when the mind and spirits are downcast. The blood does rot circulate properly, appetite fails, the head aches, and if these mor- bid conditions continue more deep seated ailments are likely to arise, and cancer may be one of them. With many persons a fit of anger is followed by an attack of indigestion. Excitement destroys the appetite, bad mnews creates nausea, fright causes faintness, and so on. Violent or de- pressing emotions always disturb the equilibrium of body and mind alike. This being the case, it is inevitable that when these emotions often recur or become continuous serious physical results will follow. The obvious les- son is, then, that mental serenity tends to health—is, in fact, an essential element of health—and that instead of resorting to' miud “cures” after the health is broken it is wise to preserve the serenity as a preventive and safe- guard against disease. — Indianapolls Star. Lordly Disraeli. Disraeli once told a lady that two possessions which were indispensable to other people he had always done without. *‘1 made” she said, “every kind of conjecture, but without suc- cess, and on my asking him to en lighten me he solemnly answered that they were a watch and an umbrella. ‘But how do you manage,’ I asked, if there happens to be no clock in the room and you want to know the time?' ‘I ring for a servant, was the magnilo- quent reply. ‘Well' 1 continued, ‘and what about the umbrella? What do you do. for instance, if you are in the park and are caught in a sudden show- er? ‘I take refuge’ he replied, with a smile of excessive gallantry, ‘under the umbrella of the first pretty woman I meet.’”” Easier to Write It. In 1871 Edward Lear was staying with the governor of Bombay at Ma- habaleshwar, the hill station of the Bombay presidency. I was there and took a walk with him one day. He asked me the name of some trees. 1 told him thy were called *jambul” trees in India. He immediately pro- duced his sketch book and in his in- imitable style drew a bull looking into a jam pot. He said it would help him to remewber the name,—Londou Spec- tator.

Romeo Not Taken Seriously. Juliet was only fifteen years old, but she thought she was quite grown up. Oune eveuning, says Mrs. R. A. Pryor in “My Day,” she was receiving on the moonlit veranda a young man caller. He, too, it seemed, considered himself grown up. The anxious youth was moved to seize the propitious hour and declare himself, Juliet wished to an- swer correctly and'dismiss him with- out wounding him. She assured Lifh mamma would nev- er consent. A voice from within—they were sit- ting beneath her mother’s window— settled the matter: “Accept the young man, Juliet, if you want to. I've not the®least ob- Jection. And let him run along home now. Be sure to bolt the door when you come fn.” g Evidently the mother had small re- to sleep, ‘oats. spect for boy lovers and wished to go. SOWING HIS WILD OATS. Nights of Wasteful Debauchery That Wore Him Out. “Yes, I'm dissipatlog too much,” sald the red faced rustic as he rubbed his head despondently. “Dissipating?” gasped his friend. “That’s the word 1 used. You've heard that expression about ‘burning life’s candle at both ends? Well, that’s my. case exactly. To tell the truth, 1 have been having too gay a time. Last night 1 went down to the Blue Moou nnd drank a soda. Then some traveling man offéred me a cigar. Of course I had to take it.” - “You don’t mean it?” “1 mean just what I say. Then I bought a ham sandwich. I ate it and actually forgot myself and took an- other. Ob my way home I dropped into the church social for a few min- utes. Some of the young ladies made me try the ‘penny dip,” and 1 drew a biank.” “Such extravagance!” “That's exactly it. Extravagance and dissipation will kill me. It was 9 o’clock before 1 reached home.” “Nine o’clock!” “Yes. 1 must be sowing my wild Well, I've finished now. Night before last 1 called on my girl.
