DID some one say that a dam across Fox river is among tlje possibilities? HATS off to President Roosevelt and John MitchelL But we can't Baer the Other fellows. IF it were not for the merchant and his stock of winter merchandise that must be sold, 'twould be a nice thing to have Indian summer ail winter. ? THE man who paid $24 a ton for his .Mri is mad now because the strike is over. However, it will be some days before the coal bins throughout the «onntry are replenished. SENATOR MASON declares that he is • true Republican, his adversaries to the contrary notwithstanding. It may be so, but imitations are so numer­ ous and deceptive these days. THE Syndicate of lawyers and politic­ ians who purchased the McHenry Coun­ ty Democrat and converted it will- fight everything that appears like a "ring." So be it. If they had the reigns in their own hands it would probably be called a "square ring." II * WHATEVER may be the political pol­ icies of the McHenry County Republi­ can, in the manager, CL A. Lemmers, tiie company has a man who will hold tap the business end in a capable man­ ner. The Sentinel is a monument to his abilities as a newspaper manager. GIVE President Roosevelt credit for being instrumental in bringing the coal strike to an amicable end. Perhaps it has bettered his chances for the cam paign of 1904, bnt however that may be be has certainly won the hearts ot the Common people and is entitled to recog­ nition in the next presidential cam­ paign. All humans are prone to criti­ cise a public official whether he is doing right or wrong. If President Roosevelt had taken a back seat and said nothing daring the present trouble he would have beencensured by everyone except tiie coal barons. But he did what ap- ...peared to be his plain duty in calling a oonferenoe: Now there are a few peo­ ple who will claim that he did all this Urork just for effect and not because of his love of duty. Such nonsense. government exhibit should be expected to eclipse all others made by the gov­ ernment," he says. "The Chicago board had to start out without any definite kdowledge of what total sum would be available for the exhibit, Con­ gress having made the appropriation piecemeal. That was unwise; it really made the exhibit more expensive, for work which otherwise could have been done deliberately and at a moderate ex­ pense was delayed until the last mo­ ment to be finished in haste and at a greater cost But this board has all its funds at onoe at its disposal and the plans are being made with every care and decision. This also means that new exhibits will be possible where they have seldom been in the past. I think that in general the legislation is for better than similar previous laws; it is workable without amendment. The exhibit here will be, not only larg­ er but infinitely finer than Chicago's. At Chicago neither the Bureau of the American Republics, the Department of Labor nor the Library of Congress were included in the government ex­ hibit, as they will be here. But 1 have more in mind the completeness of the representations from the departments individually. It has never been pos­ sible for any department to have all its divisions of faculties represented in any one exhibit; at Buffalo probably we came nearest to doing this. At St. Louis we may not succeed in fully covering every department but I believe there will be little missing. "An expert government exhibition man once very aptly said that the dis­ plays made by the government at these shews are in the nature of reports to the people made by their institutions and agents at Washington. These re­ ports are not thrown in the waste bas­ ket, either, like the printed kind; they are object lessons and as such command attention and respect. They do a great good, tend to intensify the faith in the government, increase the support of it, and bring about an understanding of its workings which could hardly be ac­ complished in any other manner nearly so well,--this being aside from the great educational benefit of the exhibits. "Of course it is too early to attempt to say what will be shown; and in fact that question might best be answered by saying, as the act of Congress does: 'Such articles and material as illus­ trate the function and administrative faculty of the government in time of peace and its resources as a war power, tending to demonstrate the nature of our institutions and their adaptations to the wants of the people." It would, though be more appropriate to ask how these will be shown rather than what, for after all the subjects do not change with the expositions, but the govern ment's agents put the material in new shape and dress. However, no one can truthfully say the exhibit of the govern­ ment at any exposition failed to be most interesting, if not the most inter­ esting. I might make one modification and say that wherever possible the de partments will cover and emphasize the subject of the Louisana Purchase, which will mean no small amount of material never before shown. 'For the $450,000 appropriated to erect a suitable building, you will get the best exhibition structure the gov ernment ever put up, and the $800,000 for the exhibit will give you a display you will boast of as the most compre hensive and the finest installed t>y the government--or by any government, for that matter " Mary D Coe to Bernard J Hoge it Sbk 4 Hart's 1st add Harvard ...I....'.

The malic acid of ripe apples, either raw or cooked, will neutralize any ex­ cess of chalky matter engendered by eating too mucli meat. It it also the fact that such fresh fruits as the apple, the pear and the plum, when taken ripe and without sugar, diminish acid­ ity in the stomach rather than provoke it.

"Born and died on the same day" Is true of the following conspicuous men: Shakespeare was born April 23, 1564. and died April 23, 1616. Raphael Segio d'Urbino, the great artist, was born on Good Friday, 1483, and died on Good Friday, 1520, aged thirty-sev­ en. Good Friday Is a movable feast, so the day of the month may not have been the same. Sir Thomas Browne, author of "Rellglo Medici," was born Oct. 19, 1605, and died Oct 19, 1682. Timothy Swan, composer, was born July 23, 1758, and died July 23, 1812. St. John of God, one of the most emi­ nent of Portuguese saints, was born March 8, 1495, and died March 8, 1550. John Sobieski, king of Poland, who de» llvered Vienna from the Turks, was born June 17, 1629, and died June 17, 1690. v Soft and Warm.

There is one thing about the contents of these pillows that can be depended upon with a marked degree of certainty--they are sure to be soft. Forty Years' Torture.

Female weakness, disordered menses, falling of the womb and ovarian troubles do not wear off. They follow a woman to the change of life.

MNEofCARDUL A "Tragedy." A Missouri paper gives an account of an amusing little "tragedy" which it claims occurred in Its town. A man and his wife were riding home on a Btreet car. He. was reading his paper, when another lady got on. The car was crowded, and without glancing up he aroee and gave her his seat, receiv­ ing a gracious smile in payment The man's wife Immediately got up, gave the bellrope a hard jerk and invited her husband to get off. When he looked around to learn the cause of her anger, he discovered that the woman to whom he had given his seat was his first wife, whom he had divorced two years before. They walked the rest of the way home, and he is still ex­ plaining. , Never Ask Ad vice.
