AST year's agricultural
products were worth
$9,000,000,000 to the
farmers. The govern
ment used farm values in getting
TT
figures for this total. Assuming that the farmers kept one-third of the
products for their own use, the consumers paid more than $13,000,
000,000 for what the producers received $6,000,000,000. The cost of
getting the year's products from producers to consumers amounted to
the enormous sum of $7,000,000,000. The real problem to deal with is
not high cost of living. It is HIGH COST OF SELLING. In the
last twenty-five years our agricultural exports have increased 60 per
cent, while our commercial exports have increased nearly 400 per
cent This is certainly a BAD SHOWING FOR THE FARMEES.

DENNING REGARDS
BOXING AS JOKE
Welterweight Says Fistic Game
Is Easier Than Pounding Iron.
HOW HE BECAME SCRAPPER.
Learned Ring Game In Bouts During
Lunch Hour at the Foundry Expects
to Be Hailed as Champion Some Day.
Tells of His First Fight. "
Most boxers look upon their profes
sion as a very serious occupation, but
Jack Denning, the New York welter
weight,, who recently fought a draw
with Mike Gibbons in Gotham. Is a
glaring exception to the rule. Jack
thinks fighting is a huge joke, especial
ly when compared to his former mode
of earning a living. .
"Pounding iron in a foundry is no
joke; thumping an opponent with a
pair of boxing gloves is so amusingly
funny that it's really a big joke. To
me there's nothing furnishes the same
amount of fun and entertainment that
the boxing game does," said Denning
as he ordered an extra platter of eggs
at a hotel In New York recently.
Perhaps Denning's Idea that even
fighting is only a Joke may have some
thing to do with the fact that his
friends all call him "Laughing Jack.'"
He is fond of boxing principally be
cause of the amusement It furnishes
him. The business end has not receiv
ed Jack's attention until within the
last twelve months and then only be
cause he has a big family on his
hands. ,
Denning has been fighting only three
years, but today be is considered to
be one of the most promising welters
in the country. He is a very clever
boxer, who can bit as hard as any of
the men in that class today. It
wouldn't be surprising if he goes to
the top and wins the title.
But for Denning's story of how he
drifted into the fighting business. It's
interesting because it shows how com
paratively easy a man succeeds who
keeps on plugging:
"When I was a kid of twelve my fa
ther died. It was up to me to bustle,
and I took the first thing that came my
way. It happened to be a job in an
iron foundry pounding iron all day
At first the work was terribly hard,
but when I began to realize that it was
making me strong I stuck with it.
Foundry work is no Joke, particularly
to a kid. and I was looking around for
something to amn.se myself with dur
ing the short noou hour. In one of the
neighboring back yar.ds several of the
men gathered and put on the gloves.
Soon I was at it with the larger fel
lows," said Denning.
Learns During Lunch Hour.
"Some way I seemed to box well
without much effort. In a short while
the men in the foundry brought in
clever fellows who knew the game to
box me during the lunch hour. I learn
ed many little tricks of the craft
"One day in 1908 I was asked over to
the new West Side Athletic club in
New York to box. In those days the
club was considered the toughest
school of fighting in the world. If a
fellow got away with all the men in
his class he'd be stacked up against
heavier men. The process would be
continued until some one received a
good trimming.
"1 made a hit at the club. Every
heavyweight they put up against me I
outboxed. and they decided to send me
to the national championships held
that year in Boston. There I won the
amateur lightweight title. -
"Four months later I decided I'd try
the professional game.

one of the women who are credited with a large share in the polit
ical success of their husbands. Before she became the second wife
of-the middle aged cabinet minister, who was not then marked for
the first place in the British "government, she was Margot Tennant, famous
as one of the two or three most brilliant women in London society and, the
story goes, the original of Dodo in E. F. Benson's once popular novel of
the same name. It has been charged against her that she has forced the grave
parliamentarian she married too much into the whirl of smart society, but
ber Influence as a political hostess is admitted even by her critics. Mrs, As
quith is an expert skater and takes great pleasure in her favorite winter sport
when she visits Switzerland. Our photograph shows her on the rink at Muer
ren, one of the well known Alpine resorts.
A Scientific
Love Remedy
- By F. A. MTTCHEL
Ethan I'inckney, a patient in. hospi
tal, had been operated on, a bit of
bone having been removed that press
ed upon his brain. He had enlisted for
the Spanish war at sixteen. A shot
had grazed his head, and six or seven
years afterward he began to lose the
sight of his right eye. Trepanning
was recommended.
A few days later Mr. Peter Pinck
ney. the patient's father, called on Pro
fessor Gaugler of the Institute For
Original- Research and said:
"Professor, I wish to state a case to
you. My son having been trepanned and
the surgeon having removed a small
lump on the brain, the patient on re
covery has changed toward a young
lady "to whom he was betrothed. On
going into the hospital be bid her good
by with every evidence of affection.
When she called to see him after the
operation he treated her no more affec
tionately than any other girl. Do you
think this change was brought about
by the operation?"
"I certainly do. Our experiments in
this institution on monkeys have told
us that the phrenology practiced som
years ago bad a grain of truth in It
There are tiny lumps in the brala
which are the seat of animal faculties
We are not permitted to practice vivi
section on human beings, but have
been able to destroy in monkeys a pre
disposition to certain 'peculiarities by
removing corresponding lumps in the
brain. - 1 can cite a case where two
monkeys had a great affection for pacb ,
other. I removed a tiny protul"rouce
from the brain of one of them, and aft- i
er that be would bave nothing to do
with the other, repelling her whenever :
she approached him. . I do not doubt
that the lump In your son's brain :
which stood for his love for this par-:;
Ocular young lady was taken out when
he was trepanned." j
"We are all much troubled about the '
matter." pursued the father. "We
were pleased with the match. The
young lady is a lovely girl, and she Is
heartbroken over her lover's change
Does science admit of any restoration
of my son's previous condition toward
her?"
"Not directly. I have a theory of
my own, however, that might, if put in
practice, bring about h new condition
that would be practically the same as
before." " .
"1 would like to hear it."
"The brain Is res(msive'to impres
sions from without. The Utile lutnr,
removed from your son's lieitd was pro
duced by his niiml-dwelling on tha
lady with whom he h:id f;tlleii in love.
I would advise you to throw . him ami

of the prime minister of England, is
lar lady, will be focused on ber. Were
she a person not capable of producing
the required impression 1 do not main
tain that be would love ber; but. since
she had produced the Impression once,
she will, I believe, produce it again."
"And another love lump will grow in
the same place?" "
"I believe so. Nevertheless there is
one thing that may stand in the way
memory. I think that bis remembrance
of her may interfere with a new pas
sion. It is very easy for a man to be
won away from a rirl he has knowu
long and loved by a new personality."
"We all feel the force of that."
"There is also a tiny lump of memo
ry for his betrothed In his brain. If it
were removed he would start fresh
with hrr. and she would bave a great
advantage "
"Doctor, yon spesik words of wisdom.
1 shall tell my son that the operation
has not been satisfactory and must be
repeated. Then the lump of memory
for his betrothed may be cut out"
Some- time after this consultation
Professor Gaugler was called to tbe re
ception room of tbe institute to receive
a ladv who had called upon him.
