Some what Divided ti EXPOSURE OK A LITTLE GAME iivw In its leave of January 12 the Hartford Republican had a big head ited article on Its first page in which It apparently undertook to mako the public believe that It Is the ONLY and BEST advertising medium In Hartford or this section of country- A few weeks ago as our readers no doubt noted The Herald ran a small advertisement for the Daniel Samuels Music Co of Owensboro Tine same advertisement appeared in the Hartford Republican When Joe n n we sent the DanielSamuels Co a bill for their ad they remitted promptly and added the following postscript at the bottom of their letter AAe wish to thank you and alson state that we received better results from our Hartford ads than any other of the twelve papers in which We ran an ad at that time This was very nice and courteous In the DanielSamuels Co and we were perfectly willing to share the honors of the matter with our neighbor I the Republican In the adver tising business In the Issue fol lowing the receipt of this letter the dI Hartford Republican contained the follow Int under big scale headlines The following latter has been re ceived by the Republican from The DanielSamuels Music Co of Owens boro a leading music company of that city and also factory represen tatives of tho famous Kimball piano Early In December this firm placed n small four inch advertisement in twelve different papers and they T state that the Hartford Republican gave BETTER RESULTS than ANY OTHER and they are more than pleased The letter follows Owensboro Ky Jan 9t 1912 The Hartford Republican Hartford Ky Gentlemen AVe enclose you herewith our check In settlement for our ad which was run In your pa per in December t bett f others of the twelve papers through out this section of the country in which we run the same ad Wa wish If to thank you and will stato that we will try It again soon Wishing you all the prosperity In tho world this year we remain The DanielSamuels Music Co- Dy Will P Daniel We thought It a little strange that The DanielSamuels Co should give the Hartford Republican credit ftfr being virtually the ONLY and BEST advertising medium In Hart lord thus reflecting upon The Herald and so we wrote and asked them If what they said to both pa pers wasnt about the SAME word I lag quoting what they had saldand also enclosing tho scarehead clip InJSa few days we a reply which after acknowledging receipt of our letter Mr Daniels for the Company says- Owensboro Ity Jan Iii 1912 The Hartford Herald Hartford Ky Gentlemen In making our remittance I felt like a kind word to both papers waslust and proper but as I did not retain a carbon copy of the letters I cannot state precisely the wording of my com munication to either of the papers However I wish to stato that I am of the opinion that the postscript added to your letter WAS OR nj + SHOULD HAVE BEEN the SAME us our letter to the Republican We usually retain a carbon copy of all otters of great Importance but in this case we did not do soaa our Intention was to give the com pliment and benefits derived from tho nd to each paper as of course WE HAD NO WAY OF1 TELLING THROUGH WHICH OF THE TWO PAPERS OUR RESULTS WERE t OBTAINED and It was our desire t and sltocereat wish to give each pa i per our equal thinks and appreciation I do not know nor am I certain Whether or not tho Republican saw fit to elaborate on the construction of my letter totthem or notTut It appears to me that the contents of mr postscript In YOUR letter Is about what J Intended to state As I stated before it was my desire that both papers should share alike the benefit of this little com pliment I assure you that my kind words were intended to bo shared equally between the Republican and The Herald especially when I consider = ed the fact that I had no way of tell ing through which paper the results were obtained and it would have been unfair for me to have discrim- Inated in any particular Trusting that this may be receiv ed as t intend it to bel an honest explanation or the situation I beg to remain Very respectfully Your friend WILL P DANIEL Tho DanielSamuels Music Co And so it appears that the Hart ford Republican just for the pur pose of boosting itself In the eyes of the public took the little compliment Intended for both papers en larged on It and doctored It just to suit its own views In the matter We wish simply to ask Is this fair to the public or to a contemporary in business Would a fair and re liable advertising medium or news paper adopt such methods

20Robert Melton a farmer living near here reports that during the cold weath er the chickens in his barnyard have made a practice of riding around on the backs of his sheep their feet clutched In the wool and their bodies cuddled down close to keep warm The chickens would hop down from the sheep only to pick up something to eat Mr Melton feeds his cattle In two sheds arid he says the dickens following their practice on the sheep have now taken to perching themselves on the backs of tho cows and riding from one feed stable to another to pick up the grain scatter ed about thus getting through the deep snow He says sometimes two or three chickens will be seen corn placently riding along on the back of one cow Short Hemp Crop marketell1ondis unusually short one Thqri hemp crop in

General Assembly which If + enacted into law and faithfully enforced would settle once for all the drink evil The bill penalizes drunkenness with a penalty of from two to one hundred dollars for each offense The State has no just right to pre scribe what a man may eat or drink so long as such personal liberty does not result In the violation of the rights of his fellowmen and here Is beginHoweverhimself It Is an Inalienable right of every man to govern himself so long as his mode of selfgovernment does not endanger the life or prop erty nor disturb the peace of his neighbor It line never been claim ed as a proper power or duty of the State to guard Its members against the wasting of their fortune or im pairing their health by excesses In eating or drinking and the right of the State to regulate the use of In treating drinks must fro limited to that excess which results In dis order Tile proposed statute rccog nlzes the basic principles of com mon sense and human nature and proposes n remedy that is practical because it leaves no just argument to arm opposition to Its enforce mentIn the absence of a saner and more practical means of lessoning tho drink evil prohibition Is of some service but perhaps It has after all been a stumblingblock In the way of more practical methods to solve a very serious problem It has been the habit of students of affairs to allow a class of perfectly sincere but Impractical enthusiasts the responsibility for the regulation of the liquor traffic That these ex cellent people have made little prog ress toward the end deslcd Is be cause they have persisted in treat Ing the problem as a question of morals rather than a question of StateA largo minorityIf not Indeed a- majorityof men refuse to see Im morality In a moderato use of spir Ito and so long as the question Is at Issue chiefly as a matter of morals win lend reluctant aid to such leadership but as a question of State the suppression of drunkenness would have the hearty cooperation of every selfrespecting man of the communityIt be apparent now to tho blindest enthusiast that prohibitory laws do not altogether or materially reduce the consumption of liquors Wherever men have an appetite for drink and money to gratify It a way has been found to get It The pun ishment of the liquor seller how ever drastic has never and can never make a community sober The offense against society is not drinking but drunkenness and the bill recited touches the caustic dl ectly to the sore All good men are agreed that drunkenness Is the the greatest evil of the times and here we are offered a practical rem edy that practical men should push to practical resultsJ H THOMAS Narrows Ky Jan 20 JUDGE IURKIIEAD HOLDING THI MEADS CIRCUIT COURT The lIon T F Blrkhcad return ed

PAPER AND WOOD PULP Might Come Into This Coun try Free of Duty And Ought to ALL FOR SAKE OF TilE TRUSTS By C H Tavenner Washington Jan 20Speclal President Taft has Just taken an action that Is worth hundrods ol thousands of dollars annually to the paper trust by refusing to remove the tax from print paper and wood pulp It wasItpassed a provision was tacked to It providing for tho free admission of print paper and wood pulp from Canada This provision became law whether the reciprocity act was a nod to by Canada or not There fore although reciprocity failed print paper and wood pulp are now zulmlttod free from Canadak i Five nations which ship paper j America Sweden Norway toII nark Germany and AustriaHun scry Immediately demanded of the United States the right to also ship print paper and wood pulp to this country free of duty We have treaties with you de dared these countries to the UllltedI States In which you agree tend to us the same concessions you extend to the most favored na I shipSetry the same as Canada f- I Obviously this argument Is un answerable However the President has an nounced through the treasury department that a tax will be collected as heretofore on all print paper Imported from any other country than Canada The President advises tho European nations to appeal to tho Customs Courts of Appeals which It Is declared Is only a sub terfuge President Taft has declar ed he Is willing to concede the Jus tice of demands for cheaper paper lint when the opportunity offers his acts refute his words and show that lie Is willing to violate treaties with ii

of the people receive their education on public questions through the newspapers With print paper practically controlled by a trust the iprice has been systematically boosted so as to work a hard ship

Introduced by Senator Heyburn which proposes to repeal the Cana dian reciprocity act Having been rejected by Canada the lath Is dead r without being repealed But If the act Is repealed the live added

Deck Every card player probably has wondered at times how many com binations It Is possible to mako with the 52 cards of the pack In a game like whist or bridge whore each player receives a hand of 13 cards dealt out from the pack of C2 the total possible number of different hands which may thus be dealt is greater than 600000000000 The exact number as worked out by an authority is 635013559000 This number however large as It may appear becomes not merely small but practically invisible when com pared with the total number of ar rangements In which the 62 cards maX be placed after the shuffle To I quote the whole of this number would take too much space but it I may be mentioned that It begins with 80 followed by GO other figI ures It would be quite a hopeless task to attempt to grasp the concep tion of the real meaning of such a number but some Idea at least of Its Inconceivability may be present ed by means of the following calcu lationsLet us suppose that 2000000000 of human beings each supplied with a pack of cards were to at tempt actually to produce every pos sible arrangement of the cards It Is further to be supposed that they work ceaselessly without rest day or night from years end to years end at the rate of one new arrangement per second for each person during a period of 100000 years It should bo noted that the entire population of tho earth today Is

Civilized superwoman who pre fers nursing a pug to nursing a baby may be edified to learn that she has rivalsIn the Mafulu mountains of Papua IOnly It is pigs not pugs that are fondled and cherished by the wives of the Mafulu cannibals Thrilling accounts of this strange retrograde tribe of the British por tion of New Guinea or Papua wore told by R W Williamson a fellow of the Anthropological Insti tute who has recently returned from a scientific expedition to the Mafulu people- Accompanied only by a Clngalee servant and two of the more civiliz ed natives of Pupua bo spent near ly five months In that country Mr Williamson is n fraillooking scholarly man to look at but his adventures rival those of Robinson Crusoe and the giants of explora tionWe started toward the Mafulu mountains from the Mekeo district following the course of the St Joseph River he said The ground was covered with thick reedy grass sometimes 10 feet In height and through this we hadjto push our way along illform ed native paths We visited as many villages as possible on the way to the moun tains Here we wore received very courteously by the chiefs to whom I gave various presents in exchange for native carriers There is of course no such thing as money either among the natives of tho plains or the Mafulus- so that I carried a stock of articles I calle A trade In lieu of money My trade consisted of the follow Ing goods Axes knives trade tobacco beads plane Irons belts red calico pouches and salt With these things I paid for all native labor At last after walking through almost impassable bush

It was between 4000 and 6000 feet up tho mountains that we came upon the Mafulusa small people entirely naked save for a strip of bark worn around their loins Their skin is n dark sooty brown color their hair a grizzly frizzy brown and across their tacos are weird splotches of color chiefly bright red Here in these wild outofthe world regions I found two French Jesuit priests I cannot express my Immense admiration for those two men who lived there qulto alone and unprotected The Mafulus I discovered though they are cannibals aro not actually head hunters They eat human flesh only whey the victim is killed In battle or In private ven detta but the actual slayer Is not permitted to assist at the feast Their liking for pigs amounts to something like worship Women nurse young pigs just as they would babies One woman killed her bahy so that she could nurse a young pig At the big feasts pig flesh Is largely eaten Ono village of about 100 houses killed 120 pigs for Its meal iUrF- oley

cqualntnanccs suddenly Tho police say that not more than half the ctual disappearances are formally reported During 1911 says R New York ollco official commenting on these Igures we have been confronted with hundreds of cases similar In very degree to that of Dorothy Arnold Many other cases are Just as ailing as hers The young girls caving made no preparations for departure and few have since been heard from We maintain a bureau of missing persons especially to carry on this work of search New York Is the second largest city in the world It prides Itself ipon the efficiency of Its police and ihe shrewdness of its detective force Yet it Is forced to confess hat every year two thousand women drop utterly out of existence with no trace of them ever afterwards found If these
