Cardinal Farley. John Cardinal Farley, the distin- guished New York prelate, who was recently elevated to the cardinalate, was born in County Armagh, Ireland, April 20, 1842. He came to the United States before the civil war, and located in New York. In 1866 he graduated from St. John’s College, Fordham, and a year or so later Car- dinal McCloskey sent him to the American College in Rome to com- plete his theological studies. He was ordained in.Rome, and a year after his return to New York he was ap- pointed secretary to Cardinal Mec- Closkey. In 1884 he was made a Monsignor, and seven years later was appointed Vicar General of the arch- diocese of New York. In 192 he ‘was consecrated an auxiliary bishop, and in 1902 he succeeded Archbishop Corrigan in the archdiocese of New York. Corzrainlations to: Kiig Cnarles I of Roumania, sev- enty-three years old today. John A. Mead, governor of Ver- mont, seventy-one years old today. Daniel C. French, the noted sculp- tor, sixty-two years old today. Major Archibald Butt. Archibald Butt, major in the Unit- ed States Army, died a soldier’s death when he went down on the Titanic Just as much as though he had been killed on a battle field. Major Butt was ostensibly on a pleasure trip through Europe, but his death brought out the fact that he had been sent to Italy as a special messenger from President Taft to the King. He bore a secret dispatch con- cerning the trouble in Tripoli rela- tive to having the matter arbitrated. Major Buit had the answer from the king on his person when he was drowned and it will probably never be recovered. President Taft, with his eyes tear dimmed, said: “When I heard that Archie was on a ship that was lost with over 1,300 of its people, I didn’t want to see him again; I knew he wouldn’t come back.” Who shall say that the president’s aide did not die in the service of his country? “Red Acre Farm.” As a production, it was complete. For amateur theatricals, it was far above expectations. The.play as giv- en last night in the city hall sur- prised a large audience by the easy moving, clever acting, and lack of those little things which so widely separate amateurs from professionals. To select any one of the seniors for particular mention is hard, for each and every one carried their roles-in u satisfactory manner and gave a re- markably finished performance. Each one carried out his or her part of the illusion in a way which made the whole of one piece. The stage “bus- iness,” such as actually pasting post- ers, using an old lantern, etec., effect- ually added to the enjoyment of the performance. - As hard as it is to select any one for a star, it must be admitted- that. the work of Miss Gladys Stanton, in her interpretation of the good daugh- ter driven from home. in . disgrace, was far above the average: seen: in amateur work. = She seemed to feel by the others. Her support by Al Neuman was faultless and their duo scenes were among the best in the play. Dorothy Torrance, as the petted daughter; Iliram Simons, as the vil- lunous son of Squire Harcourt; and Charles Gerlinger, as the old and bent farmer, gave interpretations that showed much study and no little dramatic ahility. Comedy was fur- nished by Harry Grindall, Walter Jones, Aleck Ripple, Florence Ripple and Poldie Rauscher in a manner that kept the audience in an uproar while they were working. Melvin Galchult, as the squire, and Marga- ret Slough, as the wife of the farm- er, finished the serious roles in a manner that was above criticism. No little appreciation is due to Professor - Robinson as it was his work as a coach which materially brought out the latent talent in the class members. Cutting Prices. With Apologies to Hamlet. To cut or not to cut. That is the question. » - Whether it is not better in the end To let the chap who knows not the worth Have the business at cut-throat prie- es, or Tc take up arms against his competi- tion, And by opposing cut for cut, end it. Tc¢ cut—and by cutting put the other cutter . Out of business—’tis a consummation Devoutly 10 be wished. To cut—to slash-- Perchance myself to get it in the neck— Aye—there's the rub; starts to meet The other fellows prices, 'tis like as not He's up against it good and hard. To cut and to slash is not to end the confusion And the many evils the trade is pest- ered with; Nay, nay, Pauline; ’tis but the fore- runner Of debt and mortgage such a course portends. 'Tis well to get the price the goods are worth And not be bluffed into selling them for what So-and-so will sell his goods for. Price cutting doth appear” unseemly Ard fit only for the man who knows not What his goods are worth, and who, - ere long, By stress of making vain comparison "Twixt bank account and liabilities, Will make his exit from the business. —Anon. when one Anclent and Modern Words. “The word appendicitis was consid- ered too rare and obscure for inclu- slon in the Oxford Dictionary. Scullery 18 not related to scullion, nor sentinel to sentry, while cipher is the same ‘word as zero, and ilt is identical with Juliet.

Don’t be surprised if you have an attack of rheumatism this spring. Just rub the affected parts freely with Chamberlain’s Liniment and it will soon disappear. Sold by Bark- er’s Drug Store. Trick Dldn't Work Out. A COastleford, Yorkshire, England, claimant to an old-age pension pro- duced a prayer book the other day, with his name entered on it as having been born in 1839. The ink used, how- ever, was composed of a dye not in- vented till 1867, and instead of a pen- ‘slon the claimant got 14 days for at- tempted fraud. PR W — Children’s Laughter Closed Park. The Pushkin Park, the only ohil dren’s playing ground at Sevastopol, which was opened by public subscrip- tion, has been closed by administra- tive order because the children’s laughter and shouting Interfered with the work of the police officials in their chancellery.—Pall Mall Gaszette. Impressive “|.” “A public man should endeavor to Impress his meaning in ag simple and direct a fashion as possible. He should make a practice of using words of one syllable.” “I go further than that,” replied the energetic statesman. “I depend almost entirely on the briet and beautiful word of one letter.” Artificlal Halr Saved Life. The way in which her hair was dressed was all that saved the life of an Indianapolls woman the other day. She was walking plong a residential street, when an alarm clock fell out of & window in the upper story of a house, and struck her on the head. Wonderful Power of Music.

A well'known European motorist, stopping in Calro, Egypt, performed a record feat by driving his car from | Cairo to Alexandria, the other day, In ten hours. The distance is 140 mines, and considering that time after time the driver had to zig-zag backwars and forwards across the railway line, there being no proper road, the pers formance was considered wonderful. The return journey was covered in § bours, the following day. You will look a good while before you find a better medicine for coughs and colds than Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy.

Over 90 persons partook, the other day at Gorleston, Suffolk, England, of A gigantic sea-ple, into the making of which there entered two stone of flour, six rabbits, six ox and sheep kidneys, 28 pounds of beefsteak, two score of green vegetables, half a stone of on- lons, and two stone of turnips and car- rots. The total weight of the ple was over two hundred pounds, and it took two days to cook. o Not to Be Driven Away. A little city miss was visiting in the country and strayed out into the field one day where there were a few lambs. Exasperated by the Incessant bleating of one of the lambs, she stamped her foot and said: “You can tell your ma-a and your pa-a and your family; I've got as much right here as you, and I'm going to stay—so there!”—DeMneator. “Moonshining” In Scotland. The discovery was made, recently, in the mountainous region near Kyle of Lochalsh (Scotland) by the Rosshire preventive staff of & com- plete {llicit whisky distilling plant. The still was coversd with a cairn, and had a capacity of 20 gallons, the smoke being led along the mountain side. The smugglers had conducted a Tegular traffc. Money in Growing Willows. A Chicago merchant advertised for 1,000,000 willow clothes baskets which indicates that the willow-growing ine dustry 18 very much neglected. The government is encouraging it by teaching farmers how to grow wil lows. They require a soil that will grow wheat. A HARMLESS WAY TO DARKEN THE HAIR A Little Sage and Sulphur Makes Gray Hair Vanish—A Remedy For All Hair Troubles Who does not know the value of Sage and Sulphur for keeping the hair dark, soft and glossy and in good conditiori? As a matter of fact, Sulphur-is a natural element of hair, and a deficiency of it in the hair is held by many scalp specialists to be connected with loss of color and vi- tality of the hair. Unquestionably, there is no better remedy for, -hair || and scalp troubles, especially prema- ture, grayness, than Sage and Sul- phur, if properly prepared. The Wyeth Chemical Company of New York put out an ideal prepara- tion of this kind, called Wyeth’s Sage and.Sulphur Hair Remedy, in which Sage and Sulphur are combin- ed with other valuable remedies for | keeping the hair and scalp in clean, healthy condition. If your hair is loosing its color or constantly coming out, or if you are troubled with dandruff or dry, itchy scalp, get a fifty cent bottle of Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur from your druggist, use it according to the simple directions, and see what a difference a few days’ treatment will make in the appearance of your hair. *. All druggists sell it, under guaran- tee, that the money will be refunded [roseited. Champlon Lagy “Kia.” ‘Puik about lazy kids, there 1s one at the Franklin - County Children’s home, all right. He is a perverse lit- tle fellow- who will not do anything he can get out of doing. Recently when some sticks of candy were given to the children he had another youngster bite off pleces of his candy-and give them to him. When the matron asked him why he had the other child do this, he saild he wanted to be saved the bother.—Columbus (0.) Dispatch. No.Longer Weapon of War. The bow exists today as a peaceful implement of sport to propel beautiful- Iy finished arrows into a strhw target, 60 or more yards away. A healthful, outdoor sport is archery, a training for the eye and invigorating to the body. Ladies and gentlemen now en- gage In the peaceful ‘sport and little thing of the day when the twang of the bow string was only too intimate- ly connected and associated with the tomahawk and scalping knife.
