MORGAN AND ROOSEVELT
J. Pierpont Morgan under the suu
ny skies of Italy, roasted former Pre
sident Koosevelt to a frazzle ? some- j
thin>; J. PierjHMit dassentdo while Ted
dy was on the job with his trusty
Uigstick well in hand. Oue import
ant but not the most important ? dif
ference between .Morgan and our-]
selves, is th.it we basted The Roose
velt while he was quick; the prudent
.Mr. .Morgan waited until he was dead
? officially ? which also serves to J
show that .Mr. Morgan lias inherited <
a modicum of cauuiucss from liisj
Scotch ancestors ? or is he a lineal dc '
ceudent of itaraobas?
But what cares Koosevelt for all'
the anathemas that the modern Jesh
uruns of the .Morgan tribe may heap
upon the be-laureled head of the hero
of Sau Juan ami many a yet uufoughi
African battle field. When it comes!
to a choice between Koosevelt and
Morgan, count us in on Teddy's side !
< very time; and the more he cusse:
out the strenuous hunter the more
friends he will make for liini. At all
?\ fiits Koosevelt is not, never has
been, nor is he likely to be a finan
cial picaroon. Can Mr. Morgan lay
chiim to as much? Hut. millionaires
and republics are uugrateful. Have
we all forgotten Cortelyou and what
lie did for Wall street and its hungry
h hounds during the panic of 190"? |
And were not those saintly nun. Jo
shurun Pierpont and Oily John ac
claimed as saviors? ? Katalla Herald.
THE FAIRY PRINCE

his smiles: they wore their glad rai- !
uient and flossiest lids, and boxed up
their Trilby* in sumptuous kids, ami !
they sat ou the porch with a languish !
ing air, but the Prince passed them
up with an insoleut stare, lie passed!
up the parlor and e'en the boouwor.
and hiked tor the kitchen,, where
cooking things are; there Susan Eliza
in calico duds, was sparring with cab
bage. and punishing spuds; she'd pie
pie in the oven and stew ia the pot,
and the Priuce gave a yell for such
things hit tue spot. "Oh, come to
my bosom," ue cried. "Susan E., :oi
you are the Blue Kibbon Honey for
me!" ? Wait Alasou.
The Wright brolhres, famous inveti
ors of airships, recently wore called
upon to speak at a banquet given in
their honor in New York. Wilbur j
Wright spoke for one minute and Or- !
ville's speech lasted less than 40 sec- :
onds. The guests were astonished. I
When asked by a reporter why hel
had been so brief, Orville Wright re- j
plied that "a parrot was the most !
talkative bird and about the poorest
flyer."
Criminals are always on the lookou
for new inventions that will aid their
nefarious schemes. Yesterday train
robbers escaped in an automobile.
What will happen when crooks can
utilize airships?

There is more Catarrh in this sec
Hon of tho country than all other (lis
eases put together, and until the
last few years was supposed to be in
curable. For a great many years doc
tors pronounced it a local disease an
prescribed local remedies, and by con
stantly falling to cure with local treat
ment, pronounced it incurable. Scienc
has proven catarrh to be a constitu
tional disease and therefore requires
constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca
tarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J.
Cheney & Co.. Toledo. Ohio, is the
only constitutional cure on the mar
ket. It is taken internally iu doses
from 10 drops to a tcaspoonful. It
acts directly on the blood and mucou
surfaces of the system. They offer
one hundred dollars for any case it
fails to cure. Send for circulars and
testimonials.
