AS WE GO ALONG. Snap-Shots, Witty, Wise and Other wise. People who have an ax to grind prefer a neighbor's grindstone. - Even the man who is looking tor a soft thing draws the line at a padded eell. Even a plumber gets worried about finances when he owns an automo bile. It is a lot of consolation for poor peo! pie to know that so many rich people are vulgar. There is always more or less making up before a wedding, most of it in front of a mirror. Many a woman doesn't think it wrong for her husband to bet so long as he betters himself. Some men count on their luck so hard that when a girls refuses to marry them they ask another. When a woman says no she may mean yes. Grab her and apologize after ward, if necessary. How happy a woman might be if ber wrinkles would only appear on her bac'k instead of her face. People who make the best of their bad bargains are apt to turn a profitable deal in the long run.

"Whither are we drifting" is a ques tion that is sometimes propounded, at regular intervals, and relates in its in ception to questions of public morals or public trend, and usually behind it is a somewhat pessimistic spirit.

The present Congress principal claim t3 fame will be for having left undone many things which it ought to have done. The flowers bloom die and bloc n again. So will the dark days be fol lowed by sunshine and calm ensue after the storm. Mr. Shonts -says the Panama Canal will be built in eight years, showing how courageous he is with someone else on the job. It's a waste of time to attempt to dodge a hypocrite. He knows more dodges in a minute than you will learn in a lifetime. The Chicago Record-Herald says the Thaw jurors will five years hence be no more famous than the heroes who helped Sobson sink the Merrimac. One New York paper refers to the "moribund eongress" where another would probably have chosen by prefer ence the word plunderbund." Since the American duel has become largely a matter of talk and stenograph ers, it is time for us to quit laughing at the Freneh affaire d' hpnnour.

When a man is asked for a list of "the books that have helped him," he in variably feels for his pocketbook and writes down the Bible and Shakes peare. Carlsbad is in danger of losing her iamous springs as a result or mining operations. People are too promiscuous these day s in the way they prowl around in the earth. The New-Yorkers who did not propose to have the Thaw trial and "Salome" going on at the same time,, have not yet gotten accustomed to watching the three-ring performances. People who clip off the corners ofdol lar bills say that it will insure the owner against ever knowing misfortune. An other good way to keep off hard luck is to accumulate a great many two-dol lar bills. Ensign Bagley Transferred. Ensign Eavid W. Bagley, U. S, N.. of Raleigh, N. C, has been transferred from the gunboat Concord to the ar mored eruiser West Virginia. Both vessels are in the Orient, the West "Virginia having gone 'there recently to join the permanent armored cruiser fleet there. ' The immense amount of 'space de voted to the minute details of the pendinsr trial of - a degenerate who m urdered a reprobate in New York by the metropolitan press has created much comment in respectable circles all over the country. The New York newspapers have been devoting pages almost daily to the Thaw case,presum ably to supply the demand of the New York reading public with this character of more or less questionable Jitera. ture. This is not a matter of wonder when the attitude of what is supposed to be the representative element of theater patrons of New York is considered in he lierht of the recent presentation ol OscarWiide's infamous play, "Salome, This was first offered to garah Bern hardt, who has made a reputation for appearing in some broad and vicious productions. She declined the offer upon learning from the author that he had striven to turn out something cruel and sensual." The author him self, though possessing a brilliant in telleet, was totally devoid of moral sensibility, and with such, a purpose as he acknowledged in the production ot the play it was natural to. expect a thoroughly brutal and coarse work from him. The play is grossly immoral and seeks to encourage the taste for,-- the vulgar and the "brutal. It is a horrible per version of the Biblical story of llerod and the daughter of his brother's wife. The play is not only indecent, iniqui tous, and disgusting, but it is al so a maioaorus musical mucK-neap founded on the depraved imagin ings of a degenerate author. We are not particularly concerned with the re ports in the New York newspapers that a large and representative audience sat through the whole coarse performance and gave evidence of a high appreeia tion, though be it said to the credit of the directors of the Metropolitan Opera House Company, that they ordered the presentation discontinued in that play house. Neither are we concerned with the fact that the taste of New York opera pa trons is such as to encourage those who are financing the thing to make ar rangements to have it presented else- where in that city. But there is another phase of this matter which is more far reaching and more deplorable than New York's perverted ideas of drama tic art. It is the fact that one of the greatest composers has set a vicious and filthy play to divine music. Referring to the musical element in the production, a well known critic says: "From beginning to end Wilde's play is swallowed in the music. It is as though the sheer,, burning power of Strauss had melted it into tones. All that Wilde's words would summon the music summons with tenfold express iveness. In vividness of delineation, characterization and suggestion it seems to transcend the limits of tones as Strauss himself and none other has hitherto set them. The eloquence, the vividness never flag. They are like almost incredibly intensified, incredibly luminous, incredibly commanding speech." And the sadness of it all thesplendid genius of a mind rich in the imaginative faculty, but singularly wanting in moral sensibility, and the masterful talent of a giant of melody oolaborated in a vicious, vulgar stage production cater ing to a depraved taste and a brutal in stinct. 'Tis a depressive spectacle of art degrading itself and its votaries, em ploying its seductive allurements to aid and popularize a dramatic cesspool, the polluted conception and abominable execution of a pervert. Strauss a partner in this stage representation which ought to make the real artist hang his head in shame! Howmany unpardonable sins are committed in the name of art! Harriman And Gould. In New York ; the rumor of a truce having been made between E. H. Hari man. and Geo Gould under which Gould would not extend the Wes tern Maryland Railroad to Pittsburg and Harriman would let the Goulds use the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad in order to reach tidewater is scouted. Stranger things have come . about, however, than this, as the work of ex tending the Western Maryland has lag ged of late and it is likely that at least efforts to patch up some sort of truce like this have been made. ; - Just why Jthe Wabash should want to reach Baltimore, though, is not clear to some expert transpoatation men. These say that Baltimore is far inferior to Norfolk as a tidewater terminal and they assume that when the Tidewater Railroad shall have been completed to Norfolk that the Gould lines may reach the sea head, the Goulds being held to be allied with the Rockefeller- inter ests. One of them expressed surprise when Harriman bought the Baltimore and Ohio, which gave him entrance into Baltimore, and said that the move tied a first rate Western road to a seconn- class Eastern one. He classed the Bal timore and Ohio in the lower grade.' Perhaps the Goulds wish to reach both Baltimore and Norfolk and may do so eventually. It is not well, despite denials upon all hands, to assume that there mav not come about an alliance between Harriman and the Goulds such as rumor has it has been effected. It has long been known that the powerful financiers of our time cease fighting each other when their is money to be divided. Sentiment among these great divilers is an indistinguishable quan WO 1MM1 USE FROM YEAR TO YEAR The cause of Rheumatism is an excess of uric acid in the blood, brought on by indigestion, chronic constipation, weak kidneys and a general slug gish condition of the entire system. The refuse and waste matter of the body is not carried out as nature intends, but is left to ferment and sour and generate uric acid, which is absorbed into the blood. The first evidence of Rheumatism is usually little wandering pains in the muscles and joints, or a tender, sensitive place on the flesh. These are often so slight that nothing is thought of them and they pass away; but with each recurrence the trouble becomes more severe, and from slight wandering' pains and excited nerves, Rheumatism grows to be a painful and almost constant trouble. The longer the poison remains in the blood the firmer hold the trouble gets on the sys tem. Each day the acid deposit is increasing and the disease grows worse from year to year. After awhile the joints become coated with a corrosive substance which seriously interferes with their working and movements and sometimes they become permanently stiff and useless. S. S. S. ' cures Rheumatism by going down into the blood and attacking the disease at its head. It neutralizes the poisons and acids and dissolves the salts and irritating deposits, making the blood stream pure, fresh and healthy. S. S. S is made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, and is therefore a 6afe remedy. When the blood has been purified by S. S. S., the pains and aches pass away, and the cure is permanent.
