DOING WITHOUT BREAKFAST.
The London Lancet says breakfast
is wholly unnecessary, as the bodily
strength, both nervous and muscu
lar, is at its height after a night’s
sleep. This may be so, but will the
medical journal explain how it is
that, while the man who has enjoyed
a restful sleep enjoys a breakfast,
the heavy drinkei awakening from
a fitful stupor in a state of nervous
collapse can eat nothing unless it be
the Kentucky breakfast of a cock
tail and a cracker?
A very shrewd business man em
ploying a large number of hands
once said that he always liked to see
his men coming to work in the morn
ing puffing their pipes. Asked for
the reason, he replied: "A man who
smokes on his way to work must
have had a good breakfast: a man
who has had a good breakfast has
had a good night’s sleep, and a man
who has had a good sleep was not
out late the night before filling him
self up with booze.”
He is no friend of the plain peo
ple who begins the agitation of the
no-breakfast rule at a time when the
sausages and buckwheat cakes and
waffles are getting ripe.

JUDGE VACATES
SENTENCE STAY
Investigated the Statements Made By
Runneling and Found Prisoner
Had Lied.
Yesterday afternoon Judge Fred M.
Brown vacated the stay of sentence
granted to Rudolph Kunneling, of
Katalla, because of the statements
made by Kunneling regarding his
past, and the Judge .feeling that an
injustice might be done the prisoner,
telegraphed to the addresses given by
Kunneling but none of the statements
made by hint were substantiated.
In passing sentence the Judge said:
“Y'esterday when you were sen
tenced you protested that you were
being done a great injustice and you
did your attorney, Mr. Ganty, an in
justice by your statements. Mr.
Ganty was appointed to defend yoU
and he worked hard and without any
pay or hope of pay, and did all that
was possible for you, and you had a
fair trial.
"Y’ou state that you were being mis
treated and wronged and you stated
that you were wrongfully accused
and convicted in Cordova. I enquir
ed into that matter and have a tele
gram from there, stating the facts
and showing that you didn’t tell the
truth in that respect. \rou told me
when I had you brought in, to inquire
into these matters and see if there
was any injustice being done you, that
you had a wife and two children in
Oakland, and you told the marshal,
Mr. Brenneman, at Katalla, last
summer that your wife and two chil
dren were killed in the earthquake
rn San Francisco.
"You told me that you had sent
your wife $50 last February, that
you got a money order at Cordova. I
have a telegram from the postmaster
at Cordova saying that you never got
any postal order there at all.
"Y’ou referred to Mr. Tracy, the
agent of the Copper Kiver & North
western By. company: you said that
you had worked for them and that he
knew you. 1 have got a telegram
from Mr. Tracy, and his answer is not
in your favor at all.
“You told me that you had worked
for Mr. Nicholas Schmitt, an attor
ney in Seattle, 412 Pacific Block, you
said that you had worked for him
three years and that he knew you
well tind would testify to your good
character, I have telegraphed him,
and have got his answer and it is al
together against you.
Now, these matters have been en
quired into, and you stand, not only
convicted, but you stand discredited
from your own statements. You
ought to know that you cannot do
these things; you cannot deceive
people and expect to succeed at it.
You are bound to be found out, and
I can only say to you that you had
bettter change your ways, because
that you will find that you will not
get along at any place you may be,
if you do not.
“I think that you are fortunate
that the sentence was made as light
as it is, and the order suspending ex
ecution will be set aside and vacat
ed, and judgment will be enforced as
rendered.”

Small Stores Made Profitable
The amount of business done does not always depend <;n the
size of the store. Many small stores properly conducted
are doing more business than some of their larger neighbors
handling the same line of goods.
The amount of business done by a store of a given
size depends directly upon the effectiveness of .he methods
employed to draw trade.
One of the most effective methods is the use of good
light—plenty of light—electric light.
