V Ju.utiomi5 Jrpartmrnt. Speaking Out.?George Lansbury, the English parliamentarian, dwelt bitterly, in a speech in New York, on the fact that during the last three or four years the prices of necessities in Great Britain have increased faster than men's wages. "We aren't satisfied with this state of affairs." said Mr. Lansbury. "and we propose to let the world know that we aren't satisfied. In the past the workingman submitted quietly to unjust . treatment, but today he has morel courage. Like Little Willie, he speaks out. "Little Willie, a friend of mine, was kneeling by his bed one night to say his prayers when his aunt reminded him: " 'And don't forget to thank God for your daily bread. Willie.' " "I won't forget, auntie.' replied the little fellow, and then he added reproachfully: " 'And I'll tell him we found a dead cock roach in this morning's loaf, too."' Distrusted at Home.?Mr. John A. Henncssy, who has had some experience in looking into official corruption in New York, tells the Washington Star this story of a certain politician, whose reputation was no better than his deserts: "He used to farm, you know. Well, I met an old farmer neighbor of his last month. " 'Si,' I said, "would you call him an honest man?" "Si scratched his whiskers, and smiled, but he made no answer. " 'Well, Si," I went on, 'would you call him a liar, then?" "Si scratched his whiskers again, and then he said: # " 'Now, Mr. Hennessy, I dunno's I'd go so far as to call him a liar, but them as knew him hereabouts do say that when he wanted his pigs to come for their feed, he had to git somebody else to call 'em.' " Two Feet and Above.?"You would not wonder that I have forsaken playwriting," said Booth Tarkington, according to the Indianapolis News, "if you knew how hard it is today to make a success. Mnoioni rnmedips like 'The Girl From Paris,' are what the public wants rather than serious plays." Mr. Tarkington smilingly concluded: "A young man who has seen the first performance of 'The Girl from Paris' from a front row seat said, as he left the theater with a friend amid the deafening encores of the lingering audience: " 'I am not surprised that the play is so well received. I knew it would be a success before the curtain had gone up two feet.' " Pleasing the Bishop.? "The late Rishop Bowman," said a Philadelphia minister, according to the Record, "once rebuked my too soft and conciliatory leahings by telling me a story about a little girl. "This little girl, it seems, had written with great pains a composition on the cow. The composition ran as follows: ? vorv useful animal." "That evening the bishop dined at the little girl's house, and her mother, since she was a very little girl indeed, was proud of the composition, and requested its author to read it aloud. "The little girl got her manuscript, but, instead of reading it as it stood, she amended it on the bishop's behalf so that it ran: " The cow is the most useful animal there is except religion.*" No Danger.?l*p before the municipal court Monday morning came a disreputable prisoner. "What is the charge against this man?" asked the judge. "Wife beating," answered the policeman. The judge gave the prisoner the once-over. The latter had his right arm in a sling, his face was bandaged, one eye was swollen shut, and he walked with a bad limp. "I will let you so this time," goldenruled the judge with a pitying glance at the poor wreck. "1 advise you, however, not to beat your wife after this." The man slunk away, painfully, but as unobtrusively as possible. But as he was leaving, the policeman heard him say: "Not beat my wife! Gee! an' he nits $r.,noo a year fer sayin' things like that!"?Cleveland Plain Dealer. A Severe Mother.?A very estimable widow in Germantown, Philadelphia, is the mother of a son who has given her much trouble by reason of his waywardness. "I am afraid," said a friend one day, in speaking of the boy, "that you are not tirm enough with him." "On the contrary," said the mother, "I sometimes fear that I am much too harsh." "Indeed!" "< >h, I don't mean to say," the fond mother hastened to explain, "that I have ever really taken any summary action, hut I have talked to him a great deal." "And what have you said?" "Why, I have said 'Richard! Richard!' and other severe things." Not Polly Ticks.?During a political campaign a candidate for the legislature was driving through the country seeking votes among the farmers when he met a young man in farmer's garh walking by the roadside. Having in his mind a prospective vote, he stopped his horse and, saluting the farmer in a familiar manner, inquired: "Are you paving any attention to j>olitics nowadays7" The young man stopped, looked at him suspiciously and drawled out: "No. stranger; that don't happen 10 o my gal's nam*-, hut if it was I wouldn't think it was any of your business." This ended the interview as well as ill*- process.?National Monthly. No Chance to Agree. "Why do you reject me?" "1 am sure that we can never be happy. We should spend our entire married life <iuarrcling. It is better that you should suffer the pain of parting now than to endure a lifetime of misery." "I'ut what makes you think we should ifuarrel? I will do everything in my power to please you." "I "know that but I am sure that we enuld never get along." "Why not?" "We learned the hesitation waltz from different dancing teachers."

It was my good or ill fortune to be an eyewitness of one of the devastating tornadoes that often sweep American soil. About 6.30 on the afternoon of April 27. 1S99, I left my house at Kirkville, Mo., to post some letters. The day had been rather remarkable, alternating between suffocating heat and chilliness of early spring. Dense dark clouds occasionally rolled across the saffron sky, and showers of rain alternated with bursts of sunshine, while the winds had been capricious, at times blowing in gusts and gale, to be followed by a dead calm. It needed no barometer to indicate an impending atmospheric disturbance, for every one could feel it. At the time I started from my house la gentle shower was falling, and I took my umbrella with me. As I stepped from the west door of the veranda a continuous roaring to the southward burst on my ears. and. my house being on high ground. I had an excellent view in that direction. In the southwest, at the extreme limit of my vision, hung a lowering dark cloud, from which occasional peals of thunder issued. Just below the cloud, seeming to rest upon the earth, was a whirling monster of vapor. dust and smoke, coming apparently toward me with an incessant and steadily increasing roar. The first appearance was that of a huge locomotive emitting black smoke and steam, and coming at a tremendous speed. The tornado seemed suddenly to tear itself loose from the black storm cloud and to advance at an increasing speed, rotating from right to left. I quickly entered the house, calling to my wife and children to fly for their lives. My youngest daughter, aged 16, had gone to the second story to secure some windows, and, evidently alarmed at my call, was for a moment dumfounded with fear. Bounding up the stairway I met her coming down, and my wife took her and our eldest daughter into the yard west of the house, where they sought safety behind some cedars. Having placed them in what I thought the most secure place available, 1 once more turned my attention to the storm, which 1 found much nearer. The great funnel-shaped cloud, expanding and extending up into the vault of heaven, seemed to extend over the entire eastern horizon. It was a dark, steamy cloud, from which were emitted evanescent Hashes of electric light. My next care was for my mother and two sisters, one of whom were blind. Their cottage is on the same street, just opposite my own house. As I started across tne street i snouted to a neighbor, who, with his wife and child, stood motionless on the veranda, calling to them to tiy for their lives. By this time the tornado was so near and its roar so loud that my voice could not be heard, though they saw my frantic gestures. In* the west wing of my mother's cottage were north and south windows, and 1 could see her standing quietly at the south window, gazing in awe and silence upon the fearful phenomenon, so terrible in its splendor that she was spellbound and incapable of motion. I shouted us I ran, but my calls were undheeded. She stood like a marble statue, her slight form and white hair silhouetted in the dull gray twilight that enveloped the scene, while the roaring, expanding monster continually was drawing nearer and nearer. Suddenly there came a report as if a shell had exploded at the window. The noise broke the spell which chained her to the spot, and with my sister and a servant girl she ran from the house. All that 1 have described could not have occupied more than lu or 15 seconds. The street is only 60 feet wide, and 1 was but half way across when the report came from the cottage. At the same moment 1 discovered that the course of the tornado had changed and that it was sweeping in a northeastern direction through what is known as Fible's Addition to the city. Fible's Addition is built up chiefly with frame houses, one or two stories in height, which are occupies mainly by students, laborers and small merchants. A large brick building stands just southeast of the addition and to the east of the storm path, while the North Missouri State Normal school building is just beyond the western limit. I knew that at this hour nearly all the people would be " ' ^ ?i?w1 ihu tornudo ill. Ilium* Cll OU|/|'l'l C4IIV4 HIV lUXiUUV would burst on them without a moment's warning. A great crushing feeling of horror and grief supplanted the awful dread that only a moment before had stilled my heart. Shouting to my wife that we were safe and directing her to telephone for surgeons, I ran east in the direction of the tornado. It had now grown to such gigantic proportions that it seemed to extend from the zenith to the furthest limit of the eastern horizon. When it struck the densely populated part of the city the continual crashing and tearing of houses was added to that incessant rumbling and roaring, making an awful sound, which swelled in volume until the earth trembled beneath our feet. The air was tilled with Hying debris. Doors, shutters, roofs and even whole houses were sent soaring and whirling to a height of 300 or 4no feet. I saw the wheel of a wagon or carriage living up into the storm cloud. One house was lifted upward to a height of more than 100 feet, when it seemed to explode into a thousand fragments, which went soaring, whirling and mingling with the other debris. The wind two blocks away as it crossed our street pulled down a cedar tree in my front lawn and a huge plate glass of the house adjoining was burst outward by the pressure of the air within and shattered into a hundred fragments. During the few seconds that the tornado took in crossing our street no one was in sight and I continued my (light toward the scene of disaster without meeting or seeing any one. tin it swept in its unswevering northeast course, a great hlack monster oliscuring the eastern sky: a raging. baleful thing: a hateful, devouring demon tearing up houses to their foundation stones, roaring, rumbling, rushing, thundering in its awful rage, the most terrifying spectacle man ever gazed upon, until it swept out of sight, leaving a path of smoking ruins in its wake. About .'t" minutes after the tornado; had swept over the city, a black, angry cloud rose in the west and FIGURES IN STA Mrs. Helen .M. Anglo, the beautiful R. Hallou, her elderly admirer, who wa on the sidewalk in front of the woman was calling on her and was intoxicatet in a panic, dragged his body out to tht spread over the entire city, deluging it with a downpour of rain, while the wind blew such a gale that many of the younger assistants became frightened and ran to cellars, ditches and sewers to escape the fury of a second tornado. In vain the older and more experienced shouted that there was no danger. The downpour of rain soaked us all to the skin and was, of course, much worse for the unfortunates, many of whom were still under the ruins. Those whom we did rescue were laid on mats, doors and shutters until we could get men to carry them beyond the stricken district to carriages and ambulances, for the timbers and debris made it impossible for a vehicle to cross the patch. WITCH WILL NOT DOWN Even in This Age People Still Fear the Power of Magic. Witches still live, as court records in widely separated parts of the world bear testimony. True, these women who work magic do not use a broomstick as a means of transportation, especially now that aeroplanes monopolize the airways and because the automobile is much to be preferred. The emotional Celic mechanic, in Massachusetts, who invoked the law to free himself from the thrall of a woman working a witch's spell on him from Pennsylvania, was not laboring under a delusion, according to some of the best authorities on the subject. He was, indeed, betwitched, just as much so as the victims of centuries ago, when they had a discouraging custom of burning the fell enchantress. It is surprising to know that even today among a great number of apparently enlightened people, the color scheme of witches still persists. "The popular theory divides witches into three classes," observes John Brand, in his work on sorcery and witchcraft, "..f uhlcVi t ho fi rat limVPI-flll to hurt but not to help, is appropriately called Itlack; the second, or directly opposite quality, helpful but not hurtful, is called White, and the third, potent as well to help as to hurt, is styled Gray." And it is the gray witch that nourishes today for profit, and for power. She is the crone dragged to court, or the abundantly fleshed and bejeweled "seeress" who rolls to the house of justice in the latest model of motor. Nor has the "evil eye" been relegated to that past which is filled with terror and death. You may feel its baleful influence from the glance of beauty and of tragic age. It all depends upon your "psychic receptability," the condition of your mind which leaves it open to the occupation of a will stronger than your own. The revelation of hypnotism and the study of nervous disorders have done much to make the witch of the past understandable and to show us that, despite the boastful declaration of su .oi'imtiieol tuitCi.v liV vffimfl ftf thi? commercial cult, there are just as many, if not more, of them with us today than there were at the time when thousands of so-called witches were condemned and executed, the last in Great Britain and Scotland in 1722. By far the most remarkable case of modern record was that of Mrs. Sarah Hennette, the "Witch of the Adirondaeks," committed to the insane asylum at l*tica, X. V.. in May last. Her home was on a lonely mountain in Hope township, and she was the mother of five children, all of whom were under her mesmeric influence. The eldest son broke away from the thrall, a daughter died after years of slavery to her mother's eerie moods, and three strapping sons, under the imposed belief that they were consumptives. were kept in bed for 1" years, until recently liberated by law. The physieians found them still under their mother's influence, but could discover absolutely no trace of organic (I IM'ilM'. It was tin unusual siuht. one bitterly <<>|il tiny of the present year, when Mrs. Mnnnret I'ilson, of I'ramlon. Wis., aocuseil of Kettinir $ii.imiii from a creiliilous bachelor in payment for "immunity prayers." rose anil faced the jtiilue. She was a may witch, and, though she did not designate the color. she impressively admitted that she was a witch and could wish anyone a I or evil. She h id been giving MFORD TRAGEDY 'ZJSW&L & ' WM -' WM* ' ' - \ '/ '' * > widow of Staimord, Conn., and Waldo s found lifeless, with his skull crushed, 's apartments. Mrs. Angle said Hallou 1; that he fell dowD the stairs and she, ? street. Bachelor Morin "immunity prayers" for eighteen years, and, at last, he wished to be free from her. In the Assize court at Sassari, Sardinia. last spring, a more striking setting by far for the trial of a witch, Rosa Artura, venerable, imposing in appearance and speech, and known as the Saint of Sasari, held the whole place under her spell as she declared herself. She had been arrested, along with thirty other women, ac cused of being in a "witches' league." One of the victims, who gave evidence. was the former governor of the prison, who had been threatened with dismissal because of the escape of a ferocious brigand. His guards, failing to capture the fugitive, and anxious to save his position, consulted the witches. Certainly they could aid him?in fact, they were the only ones who could give him the particular service he needed. The witches promised to overtake the brigand in his mountain fastness and have demons seize him. and, speeding through the air. return him safely to his cell in the prison. "Heaven be praised!" exclaimed the distressed governor. "You are not witches?you are angels." Hut it proved that he was the "angel," for he spent all of his private means and at last was dismissed.? 1 New York Times. Real Dogs of War. When the next great war breaks out, dogs may be expected to play an important part in the cam Dai ems on both land and sea. In many parts of the world they are already serving as soldiers, sailors and policemen with results which indicate that they will he invaluable aids. The breeding and training of dogs for military, naval and police duty has become an important industry. Major Richardson, a retired Rritish army officer, was the first man to appreciate that the dog's remarkable protective and hearing and scenting power could be turned to account in a way never before dreamed of. From the extensive kennels which he established he is now shipping to all parts of the 1 world large numbers of dogs of vari- ' ous breeds that have been carefully trained to guard human life and property tinder every condition. One of his first customers was the Czar of Russia, who ordered two am bulance dogs. Major Richardson sent ] two collies and these faithful creatures ( served throughout the war with Japan 1 and were the means of saving hun- y dreds of lives. 1 Another royal customer of his was the t Queen of Spain, who ordered an am- * bulance bloodhound for service during ' the war in Morocco. Previously, Major Richardson had used collies almost ex- v clusively for ambulance work. Rut the ^ bloodhound sent to Morocco proved 1 able to endure the heat so much better than the collies that this breed is now i being used almost exclusively for am- ' balance and police duty in warm countries. The bloodhound is the most efficient of all police dogs, but its high initial ^ cost and the expense of upkeep make this breed out of the question in cases where large numbers of the animals are required. In his search for a satisfactory sub- J stitute for the expensive bloodhound, < Major Richardson has hit upon the r Airedale terrier as a dog which does ' tirst-rate work, both as a sentry and as a police dog. The Airedale is of a f big. heavy type, with strongly develop- . td protective instincts and excellent scenting and hearing powers. It is ex- | tremely hardy ami can readily adapt | itself tn either nxeat heat or cold. ^ During the past few years Airedales / have been sent out to every continent J in tin world to act as aids to soldiers, ' sailors and policemen, tine of these \ sagacious beasts sent to the Malay pe- J ninsiila recently distinguished himself t by runnimr down a murderer after having followed the scent through the j junyle for hours.

Miller, the then actuary or mathematician of the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance Company, worked out a plan by which holders of life policies?policies the face of which, or the principal sum?are onyl payable at death or age of 96?could convert them into Endowments, which means that the face would be paid eitner ai ueatrv or at. a grauumiy decreasing age. For example, in 1900, I a policy for $10,000 on the ordinary life plan, was issued to a man 40 l years of age. When issued, the company agreed to pay the $10,000 at death or age 96. The holder of the policy now has a written guarantee from the company that if he lives to he 68, he can stop paying premiums and take a paid up policy for the full $10,000, or if he lives to be 7 3, the company will pay him $10,116. Another man who took out $10,000 on the 20-pay life plan in 1900. now has a guarantee that he can have a paid up policy for $10,000 at the age of 76, or 16 years from date of issue, or receive $10,043 at the age of 67, All men who believe in Daniel Hoone's loctrine of the wisdom of "catching the coon agoing or coming," should tsk for particulars as to how the plan works. It can be applied to old policies as well as new. Ask to be shown.
