THE GREAT MEN
I.Ives or Kreat mnn nil remind us thut It pays to advertise; ev-
ery day of life should find us ranking nil the people wise, to our
coming and our Kolng nothing comes to him who's coy; all our
wares we would he showing, If the limelight we'd enjoy. Let us
sink the bland reporters If they do not hunt for us; seek them In
dismal quarters, In their Inky, pasty muss; giving them our warm
opinions of all things beneath the sky; over all the earth's domln-
Ions let Imagination fly. Famous men? The crowds adore them
Lions thrive In every land! Let us keep our names before them
and they'll cheer to beat the band! Let our pictures oft be printed
lust the people should forget, even though the section tinted is the
only pluce we get. Hotter have our faces beaming on the pink or
yellow page t li it n to have the people dreaming that we are no more
the rage. Advertising! - Let the grocer pay for space to bill his
name; shall we do It? Not for Joe, sir! That Is not the great
man's game. We are onto smoother enpers than the merchants
often see; wo have learned to work the papers, and to get our
booming free.

The city of Detroit is trying a novel plan for deriving reve
nue from its streets by renting them to the street railway com
pany. The franchises expire this week, and the city legislators
, have taken advantege of this to assert the absolute proprietor -:
ship of the city in the streets- and its natural landlord right to
charge a rental therefor. The resolution takes advantage of
the provision of a new constitution which denies the railways
the power to operate without a franchise from the city. The
rental value is fixed at $300 a day. The new scheme does not
involve municipal ownership and neither does it assert or lean
toward any city ownership of the street car plant, but only of
the streets, in which the rails are placed. In short, it is no til
ing more nor loss than a form of ground rent.
The report of the United States delegates to the International
Congress on Alcoholism, held in London last July, now made pub
lic by the state department, is to the effect that "alcohol is a
foe to man's welfare."" The report will be received with gloom,
horror and sadness in many quarters regrets at thought of all
the beers that could have beon bought with the money used in
sending delegates to London to find out something that every
body here already knew,

An advance of 10 per cent in the price of furniture, to take
effect at the opening of the spring season in January, is in pros
pect, according to the members of the National Furniture Manu
facturers' Association, The association is holding its annual
convention in Chicago, and all the leading furniture makers from
Grand Rapids and other centres are represented.
This is the real football day of the season, both East and
West, Yale and Harvard meet in their annual struggle, and here
iii the Northwest Oregon and Idaho will battle in Portland
and Washington and 0. A. C. at Corvallis. This evening's Guard
will toll its readers how these great gridiron contests resulted
Alfred I. Dupont, practically head of the Dupont powder
trust, has brought suit for heavy "damages against a relative,
Mrs. Elizabeth B. Dupont, for alleged "vulgar and untrue" state
ments made about his Alfred's wife. Evidently all the ex
plosions in this famed family don't occur in powder magazines.
A Chicago man just returned from Africa brings the word
that Mr. Rooaevolt is much distressed at the reports reaching
this country of his "indiscriminate slaughter" of animals when
in fact he is slaying only necessary specimens. The setting
right of this point will probably afford considerable consolation
for the speoimens.

No sooner will we get President Taft's strenuous tour off
our hands than congress will be bobbing up to claim all the news

George J. Gould in an interview gives out a very good set of
rules for a young man to achieve success. However, it's not
likely the same set of rules he handed Boni de Castellane.
If the report is true that Colonel John Jacob Astor has set
tled ten million dollars on his now divorced wife, then he is being
relieved in more ways than one.

Very, few married men play foot

chances of letting their hair grow

We momentarily expect to hear
that llarrlnian has secured a controll

Those who wish to be strictly up-1

a. person "went up in the air." He

She How could you tell papa
that you were up every morning In

He That's all right. The sun

Uncle George, we are studying

"According to your mother, it Is

"Hey. tihere!" yelled the conduc

Now somebody is wanting John D. Rockefeller to take up the
fight against pollogra, the mysterious ailment that is arousing
so much discussion and put his money in it, If Chicago University
doesn't look out, it's going to get only a "hard times handout"
from Uncle Jawndee next timo.
Another example of the too handy gun. Fred Dawson, at

Up at Ottawa, Ontario, a ten-year-old boy has been sen

eight years old he was convicted of train-wrecking. "Give the

Of course Eugene should have a city hall a creditable build,

approve the bond issue should be held in the near future, so that
work may be commenced on the structure in early spring.
Many people of tho South are criticising the Rockefeller

It Isn't so difficult o strengthen
a weak stomach if one goes at It
correctly. And this is true of the
heart and kidneys. Tlhe old fashioned
way of dosing the stomach or stimu
lating the heart or kidneys, is surely
wrong. Dr. Shoop first pointed out
this error; "Go to the weak or ailing
nerves of these organs," said he.
Each Inside organ has its controlling
"inside nerve." When these nerves
fall then those organs must surely
ralter. Tib Is vital truth Is leading
