D0 YOU KNOW THAT It is dangerous to put anything in- to the mouth except food and drink? Sanitary instruction is even more important than sanitary legislation? Moderate exercise in the open air prolongs life? Mouth breathing makes children stupid? FARMERS MUST PAY. Hon. James Wilson, who enjoys the record of having been secretary of agriculture longer than any other man in the history of the nation, has issued a statement in which he in- sists that “the farmer must pay the freight.” Mr. Wilson points out that the farmer is the largest shipper in the country and that obviously the in- creased cost of operating railroads re- sulting from the Wilson-Adamson ‘wage increase law, must simply place an additional burden on the farmer. He says that the farmers are just and even liberal and that if, on thor- ough investigation, it has been found that certain railway men were re- ceiving insufficient pay to enable them to live decently and to support and educate their families, the farmer ‘would not have objected to paying his share of the increased cost of ship- ping, but that the farmer regards it as highly unreasonable to ask him to stand for increased freight rates, brought about by a material increase of pay to the men who are already the best paid among railway employ- es, an increase in which so many even harder working employes of the rail- roads have no share. THE STATE CAMPAIGN. The Republican campaign in the state of Minnesota was opened Sat- urday by Senator Knute Nelson at Sundburg. his keynote address are as follows: Striking sentences from No president since the ‘days of| Jackson has so sought to dominate congress and subrogate it to his will and to dictate the legislative policy of the country as Wilson. His first purpose was to uproot and destroy the system 'of tariff pro- tection and to-substitute ‘therefors & so-called free trade or “tariff on rev- enue only,” system.’ The European war has smothered the great delinquencies and short- comings of the Democratic party. Had it not been for the war our northern farmers would have sus- tained losses by the million from the effects of the Underwood law. ‘The claim that President Wilson has kept us out of war with the bel- ligerents of Europe is far-fetched and ludicrous. Our prosperity and our abundance of money has come from our immense exports and the high prices resulting from the European war, and not from any Democratic legislation. The new federal reserve system has proved itself to be a most expen- sive one—it was the product of a partisan spirit. ROOSEVELT TALKS. Theodore Roosevelt ~ at Battle Creek, Mich., Saturday in the first of his new series of “skin ‘em alive” speeches termed President Wilson “a man of furtive and shifting political maneuvers,” one who helped to ‘“sub- stitute a policy of craven surregder to whichever side has the superiority in brutal force” and directly charged that the president was “cowed by the big labor leaders” as he was by Mex- ico and Germany Red hot shots from T. R.’s attack are as follows: “Mr. Wilson has a positive genuis for striking when the iron is cold and fearing to strike when the iron is hot.” “We have seen few things more discreditable to our representatives and more omnious for the future of our nation than the spectacle of the president and congress being required to pass a certain bill, before a cer- tain hour, at the dictation of cer- tain men who sat in the gallery with their watches in their hands.” “I believe in labor unions. But I believe first and foremost in'liberty and justice obtained through the union to which all of us belong.” “I shall do everything in my power for the workingman except what is wrong.” “If our people follow the president, who has kept them in the easy path of temporary comfort at the sacrifice of national honor and of the immu- table principles of righteousness, then as people we shall lose all moral greatness in the present, and most assuredly we shall see this loss fol- lowed by the loss of material great- ness in the future.” ‘“Repudiate Mr. Wilson because only by so doing can we save America from that taint of gross selfishness and cowardice which we owe to Mr. Wilson’s substitution of adroit elo- cution for straightforward action.” ‘“As a people, we need the sterner virtues even more than we need the softer virtues.” Latest reports from the European front contains the same old stuff served up under a new name.

SIRIUS AND THE DOG DAYS. Time Has Worn Away the Link That Bound Them Together. The dog days, when excessive heat is supposed to prevail, begin July 8, according to the ancient reckoning, and continue to Aug, 11. All sorts of tradi- tions and superstitions are connected with this period, and various dates are also given. In some sections the dog days are said to begin on July 24 and to end on Aug. 24, while still others attribute the malevolent influence of the dog star upon the earth to the period from Aug. (AR NRS R0 4 to Sept. 4, in accordance with the an- cient Egyptian reckoning. As a matter of fact, the rising of the dog star, Canis Majoris or Sirius, has nothing to do with the affair at allL The rising of that star has been so ac- celerated by the procession of the equi- noxes during the passage of more than 2,000 years that the corresponding con- ditions for the ancient dog days no longer exist. In ancient times in the latitudes of the Mediterranean the period of great- est heat nearly corresponded with that time in which the dog star rose at the same time with the sun. To this con- Jjunction all antiquity and all the later followers of judicial astrology attrib- uted a malignant influence. 02, a new world’s record for the dxs—l tance.

How d’ye like it on a sunny day when you were dyin’ to play baseball?” says the elevator boy. “I never thought about it at all,” the- passenger answered. “Well, I have. I thought about it most of the time fer four years. Even the fellows in Sing Sing gets out some- times, but we don’t. When I get to feelin’ I can’t stand it, I think of block after block of office buildings in this town, every one of ’em with fifteen or twenty cages, and a fellow like me in every one of ’em, spendin’ his life goin’ up, comin’ down, goin’ up, comin’ down: —and outside the world goin' on.”— American Magazine.
