1$ contains greater variety. It is a program which should appeal to
the greatest number of people, because it contains features of interest
to everybody.

most able, \ • other speakers are the best to be secured, includ
ing Col G \. Gearheart, of Buffalo, N. Y., and Anthony Fiala, the
Intrepid Arctic explorer.

ROOSEVELT WILL
STAND BY PINCHOT
Expected to Take Sides
With His Close Lriend.
Washington, D. C„ April 11.— “ The
odore Roosevelt will back up Gifford
Pine Dot and the policies for which
Finchot stands in natural conservation
and will do it to the limit,” is the
statement made by a well-known Re
publican member of Congress from
the West. He has seen a letter which
has been received in Washington by a
Congressional friend of Colonel Roose
velt and says that no one reading this
letter would no longer entertain
doubt as to where the former Presi
dent stands in the Pinchot-Ballingsr
controversy.
The recipient of the letter does not
care to make the communication pub
lic now. The gentleman who gave the
information expresses the belief, how
ever, that when Mr. Roosevelt lands
upon American soil, he will not in
dulge either in a sweeping indorse
ment or a general denunciation of hiis
successor in the Presidency. He be
lieves it is the purpose of Colonel
Roosevelt to pick out specific proposi
tions for approval or criticism, and
that, through a series of utterances, he
will indicate the line of cleavage be
tween himself and his successor in
such away that the country will be
able to learn in unmistakable terms of
their respective points of difference.
Mr. Roosevelt can do this without
placing himself in the attitude of mak
ing a general attack upon the Republi-'
can party. He believes Mr. Roosevelt
will resist every attempt to draw di
rect statements from him as to wheth
er he indorses or opposes the present
Administration in its entirety, and
that he has no idea of covering the
field in a general statement.
Heney Also to See Teddy.
Another highly interesting develop
ment of the political situation today is
the disclosure of the fact that Francis
J Heney, who became famous as a
prosecutor of grafters in .San Francis
co, and has been for some time one of
the closest personal friends of Mr.
Roosevelt, will sail for Europe on
April 18. While the stated reason for
this journey is a long needed rest from
hard work, there are good reasons for
believing that Mr. Heney will see Mr.
Roosevelt while in Europe, and if this
meeting takes place, it is pretty likely
to result in a discussion of Ballinger,
Pinchot and conservatism.
Mr. Heney arrived in Washington
Saturday and called at the White
House and upon Attorney-General
Wickershani He is in charge of the
land fraud cases in Oregon, and the
Attorney-General told him he would
continue to have free rein in the
| handling of these matters. When the
j resignation of Gifford Pinchot was
followed by the decision to have a
Congressional investigation of the
Glavis charges, friends of the former
chief forrester were anxious to have
Mr. Heney come on to Washington as
chief counsel for Mr. Pinchot. Tele
grams were sent with this object in
sight. Mr. Heney declined to give up
the prosecution of the Oregon land
frauds, and other lawyers were engag
ed for Mr. Pinchot. But Mr. Heney is
an enthusiastic admirer and partisan
of Mr. Pinchot’s, and his known rela
tions add to the zest with which his
proposed trip to Europe is being dis
cussed. Furthermore, Mr Roosevelt
looks upon Attorney Heney as a ‘‘big
man” and considers him an ideal sort
of American. So that it is very inter
esting to know that he is going to
Europe at this time When both! the
former chief forrester and the ex-Pres
ident are on the verge of meeting.
One Cofiuiietnr WUo Was Cured.
Mr. Wilford Adams is his name, and
he writes about it —“Some time ago I
was confined to my bed with chronic
rheumatism. I used two bottles of
Foley’s Kidney Remedy with good ef
fect, and the third bottle put me on my
feet and I resumed work as conductor
on the Lexington, Ky., Street Rail
way. It gave me more relief than any
medicine I had ever used, and it will
do all you claim in cases of rheuma
tism.” Foley’s Kidney Remedy cures
rheumatism by eliminating the uric
acid from the blood. For sale by all
druggists. *
HE MADE RESTITUTION
AFTER 23 YEARS
Farmer Conscience Stricken Over Deal
With Gevernor Stubbs.
Topeka, Kan., April 11 —Conscience-
stricken after 23 years because he
cheated Governor Stubbs, of Kansas
out of 18 bushels of corn, worth $9,
an Osage county farmer is preparing
to make cash restitution.
The Governor contracted for several
hundred bushels of the grain, and the
farmer, believing Stubbs would not
measure it, kept out the quantity men*
tioned.
The farmer mailed a note to Gover
nor Stubbs for $29 70 for principal and
interest at 10 per cent. He said he
would have met the obligation in cash,
but that two crop failures had made
this impossible at present.

DO YOU THINK YOUR
LACE IS YOUR LORTUNE
If So Keep it Illumined
With Smiles.
.. (By Dolly Madison.)
Are you one of the girls who depend
upon beauty for success in life. Are
you dreaming of the worlds you will
couquer because your skin is fair, your
teeth white, your hair shining, your
lips scarlet?
If you are, the sooner you stop
dreaming the better, because you may
meet a rebuff like the milymaid in the
nursery rhyme:
“ ‘What is your fortune, my pretty
maid?’”
“ ‘My face is my forune, Sir,’ she
said.”
“ ‘Then I won’t marry you, my
pretty maid.’ ”
“ ‘Nobody asked you to, sir,’ ” she
said.
I can imagine that the milkmaid’s
feelings were hurt when she flung
back that answer. She had triumphed
in her loveliness, yet it had failed tc
conquer. That the man was a fortune
hunter did not comfort her—all men
have hearts and what was money when
weighed against her face and figure?
One wonders if she had sighed:
“ ‘Alas, I am so sorry, kind sir,’ ”
she said,
whether he might not have sympathiz
ed with her, and sympathizing, would
have found h ; s hard heart softened.
That is the trouble. Beauty is so
often defiant that it repels. Men are
half afraid of it; A max* said to me
once: “I like to go and'look at that
girl as if she were a picture in an art
gallery, but just as ‘The Horse Fair’
or any other great painting would be
impossible for my walls, so would she
be impossible for my hearthstone.”
Therefore, if you would, have your
beauty win men’s hearts you must
combine with it graciousness and re
sponsiveness These are qualities
which make some average girl carry
off a matrimonial prize while her
handsomer sisters stand amazed and
demand “What did he see in her?”
Did you ever notice that the average
girls are married first? Not the very
ugly girls are the very pretty ones? I
think this is because the average girl
believes in a certain give-and-take. She
does not demand too much. She is in
dependent. but not arrogant; she is
sympathetic, but not meek. The ac
knowledged beauty wants all men to
bend the knee to her, while the ugly
girl is apt to kneel before the object of
her adoration. And neither attitude
makes for love—a man may worship
for a while a goddess on a pedestal, or
take pity on a slave, but in the end he
wants a woman.
In spite of this truth, however, we
women would, each of us, were hut
one wish granted by our fairy god
mothers, ask for beauty. We desire it
above everything and all the preach
ing in the world will not convince us
that the lack of it -lakes for happiness.
Yet have you ever thought of the
tragedy of beauty growing old? To be
a queen dethroned is harder than nev
er to have been a queen. Therefore,
why should we sigh because of the
lack of loveliness?
And, after all, it is perfectly possible
for the average girl to make her face
her fortune. Faces reflect character.
Lines of discontent and of temper soon
are graven deep and the joy of loving
lights the homeliest countenance.
Have you heard this before? Oi
course, you have, but old truths are
none the less truths. The girl with
the serene smile, the unruffled fore
head, the lips curved in happy laugh
ter, has assets far in excess of the
girl who boasts merely a straight nose
and a classic profile.
Why Do You Suffer

pation and t&e-Uls it entails, when
Foley’s Orino Laxative will relieve and
cure you. It tones up all the digestive
organs, carries off the waste matter
and stimulates the bowels to their nor
mal activity. It is a splendid spring
medicine. Sold by all druggists.
GIRL BABIES ARE
VERY MUCH IX DEMAXD
Sixty Bequests Received With Only
Two to Give.
Atlanta, Ga., April 11. —Girls are in
demand in Georgia, Tenessee, North
and South Carolina and Alabama, ac
cording to Dr. W. E Summerall, sup
erintendent of Grady Hospital. Dr.
Summerall had two babies to give
away, and he says he received more
than sixty requests, the majority of
them preferring a baby girl. Most of
the requests for babies came by special
delivery and registered letters.
It’s better to be judged by your ap
pearance than by your disappearance.
Unless a girl is able to generate an
occasional case of jealousy, life for her
soon becomes monotonous.

THE SONS 0E LATHERS
LAUDED BY CARNEGIE
Great Citizens of Chicago
Are They.
Chicago, April 11.—The visit of An
drew Carnegie to Chicago will long
be remembered by the favorable light
in whtich he put Chicago millionaires
in contrast to those of other cities. Ad
dressing the Press (flub, of Chica
go first on the need of international
peace, and then on the subject of mul
ti-millionaires, he said:
“I do not believe that heads of in
dustries in this country are primarily
millionaires, nor are they ambitious
to become such. They are men first
of all. Why should they be ambitious
of mere money gathering? What is the
result of great wealth upon the child
ren of men?. Good or bad? Speaking
generally—had. Yet you have in Chi
cago five striking exceptions to this
general rule.
“Here are the names of five fathers
—Armour, Swift, Morris, Farwell, Mc-
Cormick. You know their sons and it
is the glory of Chicago thlat there
is not a black sheep among them. They
are carrying on the. businesses which
their fathers founded, and among them
all there is no taint of scandal, no
family disgrace, no weaknesses, noth*
ing for honest men to he ashamed
of.; '’'
“You may well pe proud of these
sons who have inherited millions and
used them worthily. 1 do not know
another city that can compare wijh
your own in th’s respect.”

Women ls Well as Men are Mads Miserable
by Kidney and Biadder Trouble.
Kidney trouble preys upon the mind,
discourages and lessensambition; beauty,
vigor and cheerful
ness soon disappear
when the kidneys are
out of order or dis
eased.
Kidney trouble has
become so prevalent
that it is not uncom
mon for a child to be
born afflicted with
weak kidneys. If the
Wa
wxar
chil.d urinates too often, if the urine scalds
the flesh, or if, when the child reaches an
age \vh ■: t ; liould be able to control the
passage, it is yet afflicted with bed-wet
ting, depend-apen it, the cause ofthediffi
culiy is hidn y trouble, and the first
step should be towards the treatment of
these important organs. This unpleasant
trouble is due to a diseased condition of
the kidneys and bladder and not to a
habit as most people suppose.
Women as well as men are made miser
able with kidney and bladder trouble,
and both need the same great remedy.
The mild and the immediate effect of
S wsmp*Root is soon realized. It is sold

Lady Learned About Cardui, The
Woman’s Tonic and is Now
Enthusiastic in its Praise.
Mount Pleasant, Tenn.—“Cardui is all
you claim for it, and more,” writes Mrs.
M. E. Rail, of this place.
“I was a great sufferer for 2 years and
was very weak, but I learned about Car
dui, and decided to try it. Now lam in
perfect health.
“My daughter, when changing into
womanhood, got in very bad health. I
gave her Cardui and now 6he enjoys
good health.
“Cardui is worth its weight in gold. I
recommend it for young and old.”
Being composed exclusively of harm
less vegetable ingredients, with a mild
and gentle medicinal action, Cardui is
the best medicine for weak, sick girls
and women.
It has no harsh, powerful, near-pois
onous action, like some of the strong
minerals and drugs, but helps nature to
perform a cure in a natural easy way.
Try Cardui.
