DESPITE the fact that foot ball is looked upon with horror by many people, there have been very few serious acci­ dents thus far this season, and nearly every city, village and hamlet has its eleven warriors. Poison by Absorption. The slow absorption of many poisons changes in some more or less modified form the complexion, but arsenic and ammonia show their effect about as quickly as any. The popular belief that arsenic clears the complexion has led many silly women to kill them­ selves with it in small, continued doses. It produces a waxy, ivorylike appear* anco of the skin during a certain stage of the poisoning, but its terrible after effects have become too well known to mr.'u of common use as a cosmetic. The effects of ammonia upon the complexion are directly opposite from that of arsenic. The first symptoms of ammonia poisoning which appears arfiong those who work In ammonia factories !s a discoloration of the skin of the nose and forehead. This gradu­ ally extends over the face until the complexion has a stained, blotched and unsightly appearance. With people who take aiuijaOuia into their systems In small doses, as with their water and food, these striking symptoms do not appear so soon. The only effect of the poison that is visible for a time is a general vnwholesomeness and Ml* lowness of the complexion. PROBATE NEWS . -THE American people have tried """i Jkfoley before the bar of public opinion, •v. found him guilty of having won a naval battle second only to Dewey's •/ Victory at Manila, anl sentenced him to everlasting fame. No court can re­ verse that rerdict or commute the sen- • » j tence. * Is the ghastly work of the corn shred ' y- l|er due to the construction of the ma­ chine, or is it criminal carelessness? lffo matter where the fault lies, it should be rooted out in some manner.

W advanced the wages of everyone of ^ of its employes. Factories all over the r country are running full time and many of them over time. In order to deliver tile products of the farm, mines and : I, .... fee ries, railway companies are order- > lug new freight cars by the mile. Sure­ ly there must be something in this pros- perity talk. |f WM. J. BRYAN says: "President /•. Booeevelt is well enough versed in poli- - tfcs to have known that the G. O. P. organs believe in negro equality for election purposes only." Mr. Bryan V' Jtems to have forgotten that there was . alittle war in this country about forty years ago in which several northern men expressed their opinion in regard to the equality of the white and black. President Roosevelt perhaps has a bat­ ter memory. VatlgMtci Food. The recurrence of the flavor of food for some time after eating is always an Indication, writes a physician In a medical journal, that the food is not being properly digested. "I can taste It," we say after eating canned fruits and vegetables preserved by adding salicylic_a£id or formaldehyde, sub­ stances that embalm food against the digestive juices as completely as they protect It from the microbes of the outer air. And "I can taste it" would probably be the report of one who had made a hearty meal on a turkey kept several months in cold storage. "A man trying to live on such meat would simply starve to death or die of blood poisoning," adds the physician. He does not fail to remind us that the storage warehouse is generally a convenience and a benefit and only when misused a source of danger. But neither he nor any one else could find a good word to say for manufacturers who put slow poison into a food prod­ uct. The fitting punishment for them would be to give them noting to eat but their own canned stuff. *•; CONGRESSMAN HOPKTNS is becoming ^TT^iore a favorite every day in the sena­ torial race. Although he does not get the advertising in the metropolitan papers that is dished out to Mason and * Dawes, he is a favorite just the same.

"IT is a good thing for the Republic |hat the men who founded it did not •ct on the 'let well enough alone' theory. That theory, if put into prac­ tice, would result in the world standing ftill." The above words were taken vjtom The Commoner, Mr. Bryan's .paper. What a change has taken place tli Mr. Bryan's own theory since the campaign of last fall At that time the republican party endeavored to con Vince William that expansion would be a good thing, although our country, as "It was, was good enough.

Lancaster, naturalist, who spent five years on the west coast of Florida studying birds there, came to the conclusion that of all the feathered tenants of the air the frigate bird can fly the longest without resting. He has seen one flying for a whole week night and day without repose. The frigate bird can feed, collect ma­ terials for its nest and even sleep on the wing. Apparently Its wings can be controlled automatically, without the power of its will, and it probably adapts Itself to take advantage of the upward or bearing force of the wind. The spread of the frigate bird's wing Is great, and it can fly at a speed of ninety-six miles an hour, without seem­ ing to flap its wings much. The albatross--that "king of the high seaB," as it has been called--is larger the frigate bird, but If It follows a vessel for four or five days It has to rest on a rock or on the ship itself. An Impudent Dog. One day Beau Nash joined some line ladles in a grove and, asking one of them who was crooked whence she came, she replied, "Straight from Lon­ don." "Confound me, madam," said he, then you must have been warped by the way!*' She soon, however, had ample re­ venge. The following evening he join­ ed her company and, with a sneer and a bow, asked her if she knew her cate­ chism and could tell him the name of Tobit's dog. His name, sir, was Nash," replied the lady, "and an impudent dog be was!" An Apt Definition. "What is a Bohemian?" said the young man who wants to study human nature. A Bohemian," answered the cold blooded friend, "Is a person who al­ ways needs two or three extra Indorse­ ments on his note when he wants to borrow money."--Washington Star. REAL ESTATE TRA NSFERS.

If they do not thrive on their food something is wrong. They need a little help to get their digestive I machinery working properly. COD LIVER OIL HUTU MYPQPHOSPHITES or LIME € SOM will generally correct this difficulty. If you will put from one- fourth to half a teaspoonful in baby's bottle three or four times a day you will soon see a marked improvement. For larger children, from half to 1 teaspoonful, according to age, dissolved in their milk, if you so desire, will very soon show its great nourish­ ing power. If the mother's milk does not nourish the baby, she needs the emul­ sion. It will show an effect at once both upon mother and child. 50c. and (i .00, all druggists.
