Your Account is Respect fu lly Solicited RULING RACE MUCH WORRIED I Caste Question In India Threatens to Make Trouble for the Brttiahere In Control of Country. The spirit of xocJal juatlce ha* reached India, and, uh a consequence, it la becoming difficult to dltttlngulsh genuine Vuinyan from their Hundra in I forlor?. Many Vaiayas castes, In th?lr j (urn, are claimlnK to be Kahtria, itnd are openly wearing the sacred thread of tint twice born. Among the lattor, j th? tendency to uhkuuio a higher | rank than one was born with mani fests itafir in the endeavor of tho nub ! castes to break into the delusive* | uoas that gurrounds t^he highest. "If ( this, process continue*," rpmarka tho j Calcutta Englishman* "a time must ' hooii come when all tho native in habitants ^of India, excluding tho Mo | hammodans, will pretend to Hrahmln I blood." It 1h difficult for u dweller In the now world to bo greatly disturbed over this possibility, but one can un derstand tho hurd position of A wont em government which nlust bo caro ful In conferring tltloH of offlctj upon natives loat it upnet agelong custom. What Kijglund doea 1h to recognize differences of thin sort by giving or withholding the atylo of "1U? hif;)? nea a," according to tho circumstances of tho caee. Thua a ruling chief of Chareoll. If there w%re one, would l>e called "11. 11. tho Maharajah of Char ooM." A imtro prominent citizen whom tho government raised to pow er, however, would have to bo con-, tent with some auoh dealguutlou n? "Maharajah Blshen Bing HawaJL, of. Charooll," I'iut somehow . this doea not suffice, especially when the prom inent cltlxen takea palna to sign him eolf "Maharajah of Cbarooll." and bin private eecretary puta "H. H." be fore the signature. WOULDN'T DO AS A WITNESS Lawyer for the Defense Had No Use for a WHter of Fiction on His Side of the Case. Irvln B. Cobb, abort story writer, re cently returned from a western trip to learn that u dear friend had boen ?nared In a Law milt Ho hurried down to tho friomTH lawyer. "I want you to call me uh a character wftnea?," wild he. "Why, Jack's the Ae&rent, kindest, most honest white man in tho world. **ve got to go on tho stand for that boy." "Not witHe I'm his kwy?r," aaid the legal sharp. "I know Just what would happen. Tho other man*B lawyer would ask you your oooopntlon. And you'd say: Tin a writer of fiction.' And tba lawyor would get up and stand over you and look i4i>to the dark recesses of your bouI for a fcteivo. And by and by, despairing of finding ono tweet, as piring thought in you, ho would turn to the Jury. And ho would oxchange an intelligent, libelous smile with tlioee 12 Htwt&y souls. And then he wo uid go back to his chair, und with out even troobiing to look In your direction he Would say: 'That is, quite enough. Mr. Cobb. You may stand down.' * Bananas In America. When it ie remembered that tho United States now takes 60,000,000 bunches of bananas annually, and that the trade is growing steadily, it is dif ficult to realizo that tho banana was I scarcely known in this country prior I to 1870. About that time the captain | of a vessel trading botwoen Boston ! and South America called at Port i Morunt, Jamaica, lor a consignment i of bamboo. Having room in the hold j for further oargo^he decided to AM In ' with bananas, with which he and other j seafarers to the tro; c.s had long beon , familiar, liis ventnve proved so proilt i able that the importing of bananas I became a regular trade, which has 1 grown steadily as the popularity of j tho banana has increased. Good Word for the Bat. The bat, as everyone knows, is hat- j ! ed, by women particularly. Just a little ' less than the rat, and all men havo 1 their hands turned against him. Now i tho gove-romoat has discovered that ; the nocturnal chiropter Instead of be? ; lng usolws and worthless is really ! most viiluable. He is the inveterate ' enemy of all insects that fly at night. | | Vernon Bailey of the Biological Sur vey of the department of agriculture, | ' in recent Investigations, found that j 1 bats shot in tho evening after flying i for 20 minutes are fottnd with stom | achB so gorged with mosquitoes, gnata and black flies that It was difficult to figure how they could eat any more.?

Our dispensary election here wan very close, but the official decision wan in favor of the dispensary by four votoH. Thin was Bet aside by Hie state board of convasers on tin? ground that the ballots wore a lit- j i lt> too short, while In other coun ties the ballots were Irregular as to else.

Which ever way you ? , ? JS apply it ? it saves money You have heard repeatedly about the goodness of a rule that works both ways. We know a rule that will work to the advantage of the man who buys high priced made-to-measure clothes through habit, and also the man who buys a cheap ready-made suit through not knowing. Our rule reads--"Buy Stein-Bloch Smart Clothes, ready-to-put-on. Every advantage of the high priced made-to-measure with a saving in time and money. Every advantage over the cheap ready-made ? a lot of personal satisfac tion and an ultimate saving of money. w The garments prove the rule. At this store only in Camden. Today is a good time. L.
