Health hint for today: praise your wife's preserves. Ole Ferguson explains that 1t was a moose head that caused the state to get his goat. At Westfield, N. J., apples are sel- ling at 8 cents a bushel, but who wants to go to Westfield to buy ap- ples? Mr. Bryan is seriously thinking of entering the ministry. He probably feels that he ought to do something to make up for being a democrat all these years. At New Orleans a warehouse gave way permitting 90,000 gallons of mo- lasses to flow through the streets and now New Orleans is ready to adopt “One Sweetly Solemn Thought” as her official son; And with the announcement that Minneapolis is to enforce the anti- cigaret law, it might be well to call attention to the fact that the smoke ordinance applies to the remainder of the commonwealth. KEEPING THEM PRETTY. To that class of patriots who de- sert the silence of their cob-webbed law offices to undergo the irritation of a crowded house chamber in Wash- ington, a grateful republic holds out certain inducements for the sacrifice thus made. In the first place each member of congress receives $125 a session as a stationery allowance. “He may be a free and lavish correspondent, or a small and scanty one; just the same he gets that $125. And takes it. There's no record of a refusal,” says Irvin S. Cobb In the October Mun- sey's. Continuing, Mr. Cobb, who knows what he is talking about, says: “Every member has the free use of the Congressional baths and the barbershops under the Capitol. He can take a nifty Turkish bath, a Rus- sian bath, a Roman bath, a needle shower, or the plain, old-fashioned Pike county style of bath, lying down in a tub with both faucets going; and it doesn’t cost him a cent. “As often as he pleases he may have a shave, a haircut, a facial mas- sage, and be manicured all around, as they say in parts of Iowa when shoeing a horse. Every other day he can have the back of his neck shaved, just as if he were going to some large social function back home. Uncle Sam pays for the attendants and provides the whole outfit.” — NOT S0 RARE. If the Daily Ploneer were to pub- |lish a list of all the lepers in Min: nesota, half our readers probably would fall over from nervous pros- tration. & Horrors of this plague have been so vividly recorded in the bible and dwelt with such dramatic force upon by General Wallace in “Ben Hur,” that most folks are ready and willing to have victims of the decaying ill- ness go about, as in days of old, ery- ing “unclean,” and yet physicians say such alarm is unnecessary. Leprosy isn’t the worst problem medical science has to baffle with by any means. Apparent cures have been made and in some states—Loui- siana, for instance, where a brother of our own Thomas Burke, is a leader in the work—definite campaigns are on to conquer the curse, leper settle- ments being in charge of representa- tive citizens. Because of all these facts the fol- lowing news item in the Twin City papers is of more than passing in- terest: Ludwig C. Dyregrove, 1726 Tenth street south, died at his home in Minneapolis last night. Coroner Seashore says that lep- rosy was the cause of death, and that Dyregrove had been suffer- ing with the disease for twelve years. An autopsy will be per- formed at once. During all the years that the man suffered - with the disease he never consulted a physician so far as is known. He had of late been taking treatment from Christian Scientists. He was a tailor by trade, and of course had made clothing for many per- sons in the Mill City. His wife is dead but a son is employed in Minneapolis. The particular point in this case is that the terror of contagion is shown to be exaggerated. This tail- or went about his work year after year and yet no epidemic of leporsy has resulted. And most any doctor can tell you of cases of leprosy of which he has personal knowledge, but he also will tell you that it isn’t anything to throw up your hands and scream about. ’ POOOPOOPPODPOOOO K4 iti POPOPOPPPOOOOO®OO® Gardiner is the first city in Maine to adopt the commission plan of gov- ernment. The Democratic State ccnvention of Rhode Island will be held in Pro- vidence, October 4. Frank Day suggests A. C. Weiss, publisher of the Duluth Herald, as a Democratic candidate for governor. Chief Justice Ira B. Jones, of the South Carolina supreme court, has re- signed from the bench to become a candidate for governor. Daniel W. Lawler, former mayor of St. Paul, has announced himself as a Democratic candidate for the seat of Knute Nelson in the-United States senate. J. B. Billard, mayor of Topeka, has announced his candidacy for gover- nor of Kansas and will make the race on an anti-prohibition platform. Progressive Republicans in Colora- do have started an initial movement to secure control for their faction of the State Republican organization next fall. In the referendum election held in Maine early this month the voters de- cided by a large majority to adopt the direct primary system of nomi- nations, Eugene S. Ives of Tucson has made formal announcement of his candi- dacy for the Democratic nomination for United States senator from the new State of Arizona, Within the period of a few weeks death has removed Roger Q. Mills of Texas and Thomas H. Carter of Mon- tana, the former one of the most eminent Democratic leaders of his day and the latter occupying an equally conspicuous place on the Re- publican side. If the new Levy election law is adjudged constitutional the voters of New York State will have two bal- lots to vote in the presidential year of 1912. Upon one of these official ballots will be the names of candi- dates for presidential electors only, while the other will bear the names of candidates for State officers. It is claimed by the Woodrow Wil- son supporters in Texas that the de- cision of United States Senator Jos- eph W. Bailey to withdraw from pub- Iic life at the end of his present term means & hard blow to the Harmon presidential boom, which they declare has depended largely -upon the in- fluence of Senator Bailey. The leadership of the two United States senators from Pennsylvania are deeply involved in the primaries to be held in Philadelphia and Pitts- burgh at the end of this month. Sen- ator Penrose is battling to hold Phi- ladelphia against the present city ad- ministration, while in Pittsburgh, Senator Oliver ig striving to wrest the leadership from Mayor McGee. Arthur P. Gorman, who has been nominated by the Democrats for gov- ernor of Maryland, has been an ac- tive participant in the public and politi life of the State for eight years, during which time he has been a member of the State senate. His career has- attracted attention, not father, who so long was one of the national leaders of the Democritic party, bat on account of his own strong personality. The chief interest of the national politicians in the State elections of this fall is directed toward Masschu- setts and Rhode Island, as it is pre- dicted the country will hear much about national issues and the presi- dential election of 1912, Both states are interested principally in manu- facturing and are directly concerned in the tariff, which comes forward as a promlngn't issue. Successful Sunday Journalism. For years the unique success of the Record-Herald has incited other pa- pers to try to duplicate or rival it, but nothing else of the kind can com- pare for a moment with this remark- able supplement. It was the pioneer in its particular field and it seems to have gotten a start that .leaves all younger rivais out of the running. The Sunday Magazine of The Rec- ord-Herald is a real magazine, full of stories and articles by the best living writers, illustrated by eminent ar- tists, superbly printed, and carrying on its cover each week a masterpiece of color work. Both in the beauty of its pictures and in the entertain- ing quality of its contents it com- pares favorably with the best of the independent weeklies or even month- lies. Its readers are having a special treat this year in a unique series of prize stories. An offer of $10,000 in cash prizes—to be paid in addition to the author’s regular rates—is bringing in 2 rich harvest of the best short stories obtainable. Conan Doyle, famous creator of Sherlock Holmes, hag arranged to write three stories for this contest. Jack London, Lloyd Osbourne, Wallace Irwin, Cyrus Townsend Brady, Ellis Parker But- ler, Gertrude Atherton Mrs. Burton Harrison, Marie Van Vorst, Anne ‘Warner, Molly Elliott Seawell, Ame- lie Rives and scores of other writers of national reputation are planning to compete in it. At the same time Sewell Ford’s inimitable Shorty Mc- Cabe and Torchy stories continue to be constant features. You will also find one of the best novels of the day running serially in its columns at the present moment. It is not strange that hundreds of thousands of readers prefer The Sun- day Record-Herald to all other pa- pers. “INGURABLE” HEART DISEASE "SOON GURED BY the Great Specialist in Treating Weak and Diseased Heart, FRANKLIN MILES, M.
