200 Mile an Hour Aeroplane. At the dinner of the Aeroplane club at the Savoy hotel, Londen, the other evening, Colonel Massy spoke of the edvantages of aeroplaning over mo- toring. “There, at least” he sald, “wiil be mo bursting tires, and we shall be no longer smothered in dust, No more corners, no dangerous hills, no crossroads, no heaps of stone: no flocks of sheep or Saturday bicycle clubs. I was about to say no police- men, but that would be too much op- timism, and I now prophesy, on the contrary, that the most exciting of future existence will be a sp of 300 miles an hour, with a in hot pursuit."—London Mrs. C. E. Whitnal and Mrs. Meta Berger were elected achool directors in Milwaukee the other day. Twenty- one men are said to have run for the same office and only three were elect- ed. Mrs. C. J. Evans was elected to the school board in Topeka, Kan. She was supported by members of the ‘Women's federated clubs, many of them going to the polls in their car- riages and bringing their women ser- vants with them. m— ILLINOIS WOMAN MAKES REMARKABLE RECORD Picks Eighty-five Gallons of Berries Besides Performi- g Regular Housework. Mre, Anna Maring, R. F. D. No. 1, Box 67, Dennison, Clark County, Ilinots, relates an interesting ex- perience with the Cooper remedies, which have grown largely into popu- lar favor Guring the past few years. She says: “For years I have suffered agony from stomach trouble, always ex- periencing severe pain immediately after eating. I had 2 very poor ap- petite, and often went without my meals in order to escape the distress that was sure to follow. My diges- tion was bad, I was troubled with gas on my stomach, and my bowels were in a wretched condition. “] tried everything I heard of in an effort to get relief, but could find nothing that would help me. I be- came weak, run down and greatly dis- couraged. 1 could do scarcely any work and feit miserable all the time. I had no strength—everything was a drag, even my very existence. I could not sleep, and was s0 nervous and worn out that life hardly seemed worth the living. “Having read several announce- ments of the Cooper remedies, I was finally so impressed with the claims of L. T. Cooper and with the sta.- ments made by persons who had used his medicine, that I decided to give it a trial, and procured a treatment of Cooper's New Discovery. “From the first day I started to use the New Discovery I began to im- rove. It put my stomach and bowels into perfect condition, cleansed my system of impurities, and built me up rapidly in flesh and strength. I was gsoon sleeping soundly at night, and In the morning feit rested and ready iv. the day's work. By the time I had taken the full treatment my health was better than it had been in years. “Last summer I picked eighty-five gallons of blackberries, besides doing my other work. The neighbors all remarked how well T was looking, and I told them it was Cooper's New covery that was doing it. I can never be thankful enough for the benefit I have derived from this splendid Coop- er medicine.” Cooper's New Discovery is now on sale by all druggists everywhere.

Brooks. Prayer by Chaplain Sexton. ¥ Bill Recommitted. The bill concerning the annual re- ports of corporations was recommit- ted to the committee on incorpora- tions in concurrence. Public Utilities Bill. At 12 o'clock Senator Searls called for, the order of the day the bills re- lating to the public service corpora- tions. Senator Fenn withdrew his motion, that was on the table, to concur with the house in passing the resolution. This motion was in accordance with the arrangement under which Senator Searls was to offer resolutions. On the motion of Senator Scarls the report of the committee was ac- cepted, Senator Searls then moved that the senate concur with the house in pass- ing a resolution raising a joint special ccmmittee to take the matter under hea.rmg‘;, consideration and to hold the committee to report by June The resolution was passed in con- currence. Telephone Rates. On the motion of Senator Fenn the bill relating to telephone uniform rates, on which the committee on the Jjudiclary had reported unfavorably, was tabled. Subsequently the bill was taken from the table on the nfo- tion of Senator Fenn and on his mo- tion the report of the committee was accepted and the bill rejected. Committee on Memorial Service. President pro tem. Searls announced appointment of Senator Searls of the Twenty-eighth and Hurley of the Sixteenth on the commlittee for mak- ing arrangements for the joint con- vention for a memorial service for Governor Lilley, Reports of Committees. Appropriations—Favorable on bill appropriating $11,250 for the expense of ordering out the troops for at- tendance at Governor.Lilley’s funeral; making the following ann appro- priations for hospitals: . Francis Hartford, $10,000; Bridgeport hospital, $7,500; St. Mary's hospital, Water- bury, $5,000. Calendar. Town Management of Schools. Senator Luther called from the table the bill for the town management of schools after July 15, except in towns in which there are boroughs and cities. Senator Luther offered the following amendment: “The expenses of main- taining public schools which shall be incurred with the approval of the town school committee shall be paid by the town treasurer on orders drawn by the town school committee, except so far as they may be signed by such persong on behalf of the school committee as the committee by by-law or special vote, certified by the secretary to the town treasurer, may provide; and In the absence of such by-law or special direction by the sec- retary.” The amendment was adopt- ed. Senator Fenn offered an amend- ment to strike out section eleven. If the bill is a good thing for the towns it should be a good thing for the boroughs and citles. Senator Luther opposed the amend- ment. It raises a great variety of financial questions in relation to the large centers of population. There is a persistent idea that the bill means the consolidation of schools. There may be just as many schools when the bill passes as before. The children of the state will b8 better educated if the management of the schools is in the hands of the towns instead of the districts, Senator BlaKeslee favored the amendment. The amendment of Senator Fenn was rejected. The bill was passed and the report of the committee was accepted. Highway Department. ‘The committee on roads, rivers and bridges reported several bills in rela- tion to the highway department, Ome of the bills increases the sum | to be allowed the highway commis- sioner for his traveling expenses from $8,000 to $15,000 a year.

Statements of Exempted Property. The house today passed the substi- tute for senate bill No. 40, providing for quadrennial statements of all prop- erty exempted from takation. No Repeal of Vaccination Law. On an adverse report of the commit- tee on public health and safety, the house rejected the proposed bill pro- viding for the repeal of the Jaw con- cerning compulsory vaccination. Dr. Shelton, the house chairman of the committee, said the fullest sort of a hearing was afforded on the measurs, and the committes’ decided that it ought not to pass. After being in session a half hour, the house adjourned to Tuesday next at 11.30. Tipiomatre SCTiorer. It was at a well-known sanitarfum. A number of frivolously disposed young convalescents were taking their ease on couches on one of the com- modious sun-balconies of the estab- lishment, and, despite the rules en- joining perfect silence upon all, were enjoying a lively conversation, mixed in with much giggling. Suddenly from the darkened depths of a room, the windows of which looked out upon their balcony, there came a plaintive volice, “Vill you youngk latdies be goot enough to sdop dalking so loud?” it said. “I vass trying to vake up, undt your lofely woices lull me to sleep again efery time I gets mine eyes open already yet.”—Harper’s Weekly. Girl Miner. The west has a girl miner who | works eight hours a day. Her name | is Laura White, her age is 22 years, and she hails from San Francisco. Some time ago she located several | mining claims in the dreary Funeral | range, near the eastern edge of the | famous Death Valley. One of the | claims proved to be a rich one ud‘{ she and her brother are working it alone. The brother works at the bottom of the shaft and Miss White hoists the ore to the top. At first she wore skirts | | but finding that they impeded her | work, she donned the miners’ regula- | | tion boots and trousers, shirt and Mexi- can sombrero. Climate Sharpens Appetite, Probably the Eskimo banquets last | longer than any others, and the quan- | tity of food.swallowed is also propor- | | tionately greater. Ross records that | | seven of his party of natives once ate | continuously for 33 hours, during | which time they consumed 200 pounds of seal meat. Europeans, exposed to | the same climatic conditions, act in | much the same way. Capt. Scott of | the Discovery, on his return from his | | long sledge journey over the inland | | fce of the Antarctic continent, did | | nothing but eat and sleep for the | | space of three days and nights, and | [‘even then he was still hungry. | QA S D S Wonderful Bamboo Organ. In the old church of Los Pinas, near Manila, is a wonderful bamboo organ built by the Recoletos parish priest of that town, Father Diego Cera, in the | year 1793. The upright bamboo pipes do not look unlike the metal pipes in a modern church organ, but a second set of pipes rest horizontally on a rack just above the keyboard. The organ is in use to this day and the bamboo is well preserved, Father Cera having a secret process of preserving the wood which he never divulged. : An Aeronautic Stunt. “Money can’t do everything.” “No, but it can do some things bet-- ter than man.” “For instance?” “Well, I was thinking of its ability to fiy.” London, May 12.—Under the new patents act, it Is announced that the patent in this country has been e- voked affecting rim locks made by the Yale & Towne Manufacturing company of Stamford, Conn.’ Eaf Betfer Sleep Better, and Feel Belfer when they drink 1¢’s a wholesome, healthy beverage for the whole famliiy, THE LEE & 0SGOOD CO., Distributors. CIRCUS MAN’'S NARROW ESCAPE. Exposure Only Averted Through Twe Fortunate Circumstances. An old circus man tells this incident as one of the narrow escapes he had in the show business. He had trained Hons, zebras, leopards, rhino—you know—and all sorts of beasts of prey, but this, he says, was his narrowest escape. It was when he was running a dime museum in Milwaukee. One day a mild-mannered Russian eame out of the railway station up at the town that was made famous, with a valise in his hand. He was a heavily bearded man and with shaggy hands and arms like George Esau. He hunt- ed up 2 cabman and inquired modest- ly: “Where is the dime museum?” The cabman told bim and thea asked: “Want to ride up? “Yes,” the bearded stranger told him quietly, almost bashfully, “I'm to be employed up there. I'm the wild man.” “The narrow escape,” says the ex- efrcus man, “lay in the fact that no newspaper men heard the man's re- mark, and that the cabman was an Englishman, with no sense of humor, ‘who never thought to repeat it.” MISTAKES OF MENTAL WORKERS, Few Endeavor to Keep Themselves in Proper Physical Trim. Neglect of physical development is responsible for many of the ills to which the vast army of men work- ers is heir. Men and women who labor in offices are even forgetting how to use their legs, so convenient is it to resort to street cars, though the dis- tance to be covered may be but a few blocks. The best mental work is performed by those who keep in good physical trim. Generally, the incentive for this 1s lacking. It is perfectly possible for every mental worker to take daily, systematic exercise, though it may be only a brisk walk in the open air or a few free-hand movements on rising in the morning or retiring at night. Few, however, gain sufficient exhilaration in these diversions. Most people are more strongly attracted by games, competi- tions or the forms of exercise entered into by a considerable body of persons in unison. More than that, most peo- ple would prefer to watch others in these pastimes than to enter into them in person. Rules for Good Health. To keep in good health it is neces- sary to have regular hours for eating and sleeping. Meals should be ar- ranged to be served at the same time each day and there should be no hurry- ing. Go to bed at a set hour and rise regularly. A cold bath is a very great ald toward malntaining health and beauty, but if it is too great a shock to the system then a tepld bath will do. Do not, however; neglect the morning bath. It is a great deal easier, of course, to start taking a cold bath in summer than in winter—any way to contract the habit. Do not eat between meals—it is injurious to the complexion and to the general health. Even afternoon tea is not at all good for the average woman or man. The Ox's Affections. Oxen usually die in pairs. One yoke fellow seldom survives the other. Working and resting side by side through many long years these patient animals develop so strong, so deep and ablding an affection for one an- other that separation means death. When a pair of oxen are yoked to- gether in youth they fight. Their mu- tual hatred i{s as great as would be that of two men yoked together. But with the vears’ passage they cease to kick and huit. They become friends. And this ndehip ripens at last into an overmastering affection which, it may be, consoles the mild, laborious creatures in some measure for the life- long cruelties heaped on them by man. Full Beards for Farmers. The protection of farmers and others who are exposed to the heat a great deal is a serious and difficult matter. Cancer is on the increase, and farmers furnish a large proportion of the cases, many of them being due to the direct effects of sunlight on the face and hends. A full beard for the farmer is most desirable for his protection.— North American Journal of Homeo- -vathy. | [ \ | A Surprise for the Thief. Herr Hager, a rich and influential banker, frequently had watches picked from his pocket. At first he had re- course to all kinds of safety chains; then one morning he took no precau- tion whatever, and quletly allowed himself to be robbed. At night, on re- turning from his business, he took up | the evening paper; he uttered an ex- clamation of delight. A watch had exploded in a man's hands. The vic- tim's hands were shattered and the left eye destroyed. The crafty banker bhad filled the watch case with dyna- mite, which exploded in the operation of windinz.
