Church arose at his ususl r after spending a good night, d, and ate a hearty breakfast, ds emoking a cigar. The od Father Tuohy, of Jones- Parish und Mission at Trues- , Mo., gave him the holy com- union and last lesson. he death warrant was then read b Church by Sheriff Dyer.

Representative Johnston of ettis, who yesterday offered ten mendments to the bill, stated that b felt confident of the adoption of e more important of these, which bnt of the law to be apportioned ate, according to their assessed uation; tp make the season for e as follows: One half the gross elpts arising from the enforce- nong the several counties of the bail and bobwhite from December to January 1; that there be a seasoi untll 1910 for prairie icken, wild turkey and deer; to mit seining from July 15 to ch 1 for game fish, bass, crappie Shall We Starve? The science of dietetics has now assumed such exactness that there is nothing left which we may safely eat or drink. Everything is interdicted by one dietetic authority or another. There is, of course, a lot of humbug about the whole business. We hear a great deal about the evils of over- eating, and overeating is synonymous with a hearty meal in the estimation of the diet reformer. “Leave the table while still hungry” is one of the pet maxims of the prophets of the new dispensation. “People dig their graves with their teeth” is another classic. Both of them are at least open to dis- pute. Our grandfathers were a pretty healthy lot and they were in the habit of eating three substantial meals @ day—four if they felt hungry at night. It their descendants cannot do the same thing it is not the fault of the food but of the descendants, who have followed food faddists until they have lost nature's normal appetite and di- gestion. Dr. J. B. 8, King told the Chicago Society of Anthropology that we ought not to eat vegetables be- cause they are starchy and we should eschew meat because it hardens the arterial walls and produces deposits in the joints. Just what the doctor would have us subsist upon, remarks the Chicago Chronicle, remains to be learned. The one thing that sticks out of all such discourses is their ut- ter uselessness. Unexplored Regions. Many years will elapse before any other continent is as well mapped as Europe; and perhaps the era of per- fected mapping all over the world may never come, because surveys are very expensive, and the five other continents have far larger expanses than Europe of comparatively worth- less lands that do not call for the most detailed and refined cartogra- but, says Cyrus C. Adams in Harper's, a large amount of pioneer work still invites the explorer, for many of the unknown areas have In the Ama- zon basin, for example, three of these regions are each much larger than | One unknown area in northwest Alaska is nearly as large as New England, and the Sahara has two areas in black that are each twice as large and an- other three times as large’ as New England.

Robbins has just returned from Lath Top, this state, where he had been at- tended the meeting of the State Auc- tloneer’s Association. The meeting was for the purpose of bettering the profession and putting them inshape to give thelr patrons better service and to try and get a bill before the legislature to have all lands and oth- er property sold by order gof the court, such as closing up estates and sales under foreclosure of mortgages, etc., to be sold by competent auc- tioneers. This would do away with any favoritelsms which is some times shown, They talked over a number of im- portant questions as to the Best methods of handling different kinds of sales under diffsrent conditions so the auctioneers can keep up to date and be able to give thelr patrons the benefit of such knowledge. .,[n every case the auctioneers of the assocla- tion advocated good honest work— no tricke—and to deal fair with the people, Col, Robbins has cried a number of sales in the vicinity of Drexel and hag given entire satisfaction and ts up to-date in every respect.

High priced leather Probably your chief use of leather is in the form of shoes; and-as long as your shoes dont cost much more than usual, you may think you’re not ititerested in the price of leather. ‘ But you are; for some makers of shoes, finding the cost of raw materials higher, are putting cheaper qualities into the goods to keep the price down; “taking it out” on the wearer. That’s another reason for buying Selz Royal Blue shoes; they’re honestly made of the best materials throughout; the maker promises you satisfaction.
