A Joh Chest.. '.
' Four or five thousand seal's ago, or
whenever it wascJoash, one of the
klngrs of Judah, took a chest, as the
records read and bored a hole in the
lid of It, and get it beside the altar, end
there received all the money that the
people brought into the. house ot the
l-iord.- This i the first contribution
box of which, we can Just now think,
end the people oE the Forty-ninth Ave
nue Methodist church, in Chicago, have
Adopted the "Joesh chest" as a means
of raising money for relislous uses.
The men of the1 congregation are ' to
give up cigars for a month, to stop
buying gloves, and the women are to
cut out buns from the morning meal,
to walk instead of ride on the street
cars, and to save the money by these
and various other economies to place it
in the chest. The scheme worked very
we!l the other day, when $500 was de
posited In the 'Josh chest." We should
be surprised, however, if a searching
examination would not disclose the fact
that the men df this congregation art)
not spending as much money for cigars
now as they did formerly, but the re-
suit has so far been very encouraging,
and the "Joash chest" ought to be
adopted generally in ail the religious
congregations throughout the country.

Uncle Horace Hopes.
TTriole Horace Johnson of Middle
llatldam issued his December weather
prediction on the 3d, and this is it:
"From tho 3d to the 6th there will be
a local disturbance of little note. From
the 10th to the 14th there will be a
general disturbance; winter will be
upon us. I hope we may have rain.
Water is very scarce for the season."
: Uncle Horace is combining sagacity
with his projihecy to an unwonted de
gree. Possiblv there were local dis
turbances in Middle Haddam from the
3d to the. 6th, but they must have been
intensely local no town outside of
Haddam had 'em. but that may be no
fault of Uncle Horace's. As for the
general disturbance from the 10th to
the 14th, it may come. If it bring
snow or if it bring rain, 'twill build up
the water -supply once again. And
that's what we need, more than kite
flying weather.
The most significant feature of Un
clo Horace's "prediction" is this: "I
hope we may have rain.1' A rational
and seasonable hope, truly, but hope
isn't propehcy. The shortest sighted
of us may hope for rain, but may not
be able to foresee or foretell it. And
it Uncle Horace Is goning to change
his system and give us his hopes in'
stead of weather signals, we may as
well stick to the goosebone. Never
theless, with Uncle Horace, we also
hope we may have rain, and have it
good and plenty. Hartford Post.

the past there has sometimes been a
wide difference betwen public senti

New York," Dec. 8. "Liar," with
qualifications of varying intensity, was
one o the. mildest epithets W. Gould
Brokaw, the millionaire yachtsman,
was accustomed to apply to his wife,
according to tier testimony In court

"We wilfehnw." paid, her counsel in
addressing the court today, "that abuse
of the bride began two hours after the
marriage ceremony. Brokaw was
madly jealous for no reason. He often
forced his wife to eat alone and to
keep her room for the entire clay.
During- the honeymoon they ate only
four meals together, lie broke into
her room at all hours and on one oc
casion, when the door was slammed in
his face, smeared red ink on his fore
head and ran around the hallway In
his pajamas, crying and complaining
to the hallboys. He was habitually in
toxicated and frequently used abusive
language."

Mrs. Brokaw was the chief witness
todayv She testilied that her husband
was Jealous of her brothers and that
he accused her of flirting with his un

"What were some of the names that

The witness hesitated for a moment
and finally wrote her reply on a sheet
of paper, which wus not read.

MADE POLITICAL WATCHERS
GOSSIP AT LIVELY RATE.
Prominent Factors in . Ohio Politice
Gather at White House at Personal
Guests of the President,
Washington, Dec. 8. An interesting
gathering of prominent factors in Ohio
politics as the personal guests of the
president at the White House today
set political watchers to gossiping at
a lively rate, although none of those
directly 'interested would admit that
their coming1 together at the White
House had any significance whatso
ever. Former Governor Herrlck of
Ohio and Charles P. Taft of Cincinnati,
the president's brother, are stopping at
the White House. This in itself was
sufficient to indicate to many that
politics might have at least a small
place in their discussions with the
president.- When Arthur I. Vorys went
to the White House for luncheon with
the others and remained there in con
ference until late in the afternoon it
was immediately assumed that Ohio
political affairs of an important nature
were surely being considered.
C. P. Taft said, however, that his
visit was but one of many ha hoped to
pay to his big brother during the lat
ter's term of office. Governor Herrlck
vowed that his visit was of a purely
personal character, and Mr. Vorys fur
ther explained that until he arrived
here he did not know that either Mr.
Taft or Governor Herrlck was in the
city. His Invitation to luncheon, he
said, dated only from the moment early
toitay when he asked an audience of
the president. Mr. Vorys was Presi
dent Taft'e chief of staff during the
campaign of last fall. He was for
several months in chargn. of the cam
paign In Ohio, and at one time it was
rumored that he was to become na
tional chairman of the party.
Gossip as to today's conference turn
ed largely upon the possibility of ro
1ng over available material in Ohio
for a candidate to oppose Governor
Harmon for the governorship next fall.
It Is supposed here to be taken for
granted by the republican leaders in
Ohio that Governor Harmon will be re
nominated and it is also conceded by
them that If he should he elected for a
second term he will be a formidable
factor in the presidential race In 1912.
The Ohio leaders even regardles ot the
presidential cainpa!n do not relish the
Idea of liming the governorship to the
democrats twice in succession, and are
anxious that the strongest possible
man shall be put up against Governor
Harmon next fall.
Since the appointment of Henry A.
Williams as a national bank examiner
the republican organization In Ohio has
been without a state chairman, and
this was another subject which may
have had the attention of the White
HoiiBe conference today.

e ASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharmaceutical'societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians
with results most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the result of three facts: First The indisputable evidence that
it is harmless: Second That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimilates the food: Third It is an agreeable and
perfect substitute for Castor Oil. It is absolutely safe It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic and does not stupefy. It ia
unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops, Godfrey's Cordial, etc. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, however, is to
expose danger and record the means, of advancing health. .The day for poisoning innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To
our knowledge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by regulating the system not by stupefying it and our readers are

Dr Vf. L. Leister, ot Rogers,
Ark., says : " As a practicing phy
sician I use Castoria and like it
very much."
Dr. W. T. geeley, of Anty, K.
Y., say. : "I hare used your Cas
toria for several ears in my
practice as have found it a safe
and eliable remedy."
Dr. Raymond M. Evarts, of Santa
Ynez, Cal, says : "After using
your Castoria for children for years
it annoys me greatly to have an
ignorant druggist substitute some
thing else, esfjecially to the pa
tient's disadvantage, as, in this case.
I enclose herewith the wrapper of
the imitation."
Dr. R. M. Ward, of Kansas City,
Mo., says : "Physicians generally
do not prescribe proprietary prepa
rations, but in the case of Castoria
my experience, like that of many
other physicians, has taught me to
make an exception. . I prescribe
your Castoria in my practice be
cause I have found it to be a thor
oughly reliable remedy for chil
dren's complaints. Any physician
who has raised a family, as I have,
will join me in heartiest recom
mendation of Castoria."
' Dr. W. F. 'Wallace, of Bradford,
N. H., says : " I use your Castoria
in my practice, and in my family.''
i)r. Wm. I. McCann of Omaha,
Neb., says : " As the father of thir
teen children I certainly know
something about your great medi
cine and aside from my own family
experience, I have, in my years of
practice, found Castoria a popular
and efficient remedy in almost
every horn.."
Dr. Howard James, of New York,
City, says : " It is with great pleas
ure that I desire to testify to the
medicinal virtue of your Castoria.
I have used it with marked benefit
in the case of my own daughter,
and have obtained excellent resulte
from its administration to other
children in my practice."
Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadel
phia, Pa., says : "The name that
your Castoria has made for itself
in the tens of thousands of homes
blessed by the presence of children,
scarcely needs to be supplemented
by the endorsement of the medical
profession, but I, for one, most
heartily endorse it and believe it
an excellent remedy."
Dr. B. Ealstead Scott, of Chica
go, 111., says : " I have prescribed
your Castoria often for infants
during' my practice and find it
very satisfactory."
Dr. William Belmont, of Cleve
land, Ohio, say. : " Your Castoria
stands first in it. class. In my

never have found anything that so
filled the place."
Dr. R. J. Hamlen, of Detroit,
Mich., says : I prescribe your Cas

found anything to equal it for chil
dren's troubles. I am aware that
there are imitations in the field, but

Dr. Channing H. Cook, of Saint
Louis, Mo., says: "I have used
your Castoria for several years past
in my own family and have always
found it thoroughly efficient and
never objected to by children,
which is a great consideration in
view of the fact that most medi
cine, of this character are obnox

consider it the peer of anything
chat I ever prescribed."
