The body dangled in the air for hours and one had the heart to take it down until spectators became worrying of looking at the body. Not until some brave women in the community joined in and dragged body down to give it a decent burial. There was no evidence that the lynchened man had committed a crime; not even hearsay. He was picked up, arrested, and the sons of respectable white people were taken into custody. A man who took the prisoner to a nearby tree and lynchmed him. Last Year's Lynchings. Mod murder, with its damnable, horrifying, slicking, grewsome shadows, is with us again. It stands as the greatest crime against modern civilization, and one to be reckoned with. In defiance of the law, a number of men and that of others are endangered. There were forty persons, thirty-eight men and two women, died on the Cross of Hell and State in the year 1951; killings of the cowardly and insane were powerful enough to suspend the powers of our courts of law offers to the race UNITED STATES "JIM CROWS" HAITI Senate Ratifies Treaty for Island Protectorate—U.

All of them stated that the case involved not so much the rights of Miss Bosfield as the attitude of the state government, which marks ascribed the Bosfield case directly to the showing in Boston of "the Birth of a Nation" film. He said: --- Last Year's Lynchings. --- to the Bifur of a bone because they cause the reasult it to of bone when they grow. a problem. These American citizens who were murdered were convicted and sentenced to prison for no pretense of a court. These organizers who predecrers are free under the law. The Federal Constitution says, "No citizen shall be convicted of a crime without happiness." They were put to death by mobs, irresponsible, ignorant pagans, race-hating, half-starved cut What Is Your Duty? What is Your Duty? Now that 45 American citizens paid the terrible cost of the 1980s and 1990s or more before the first three months of this year has elapsed, what is your duty to your race? This does not include the members of the race murdered by one man as records are only made of mobs. Too long have we depended upon our prayers. Too long have we been told to be law-abiding and lynching goes right on. Too long have we been told that the Christian people would settle the war. Too long have we been told that the increase of the number of lynchings is HIGHER when women must become the defenders of the race and stop this lawlessness. Since the South is to continue this past time, it's up to the race to AIM themselves and die that this CRIME CURSED PASTIME CEASE. The cry now is: AIM YOURSELVES AND FIGHT TO DEFEND YOUR HOME, YOUR FAMILY AND YOURSELF. BE KIN, LONGER, PRAY, OF MOBS. In your COUNTRY, YOUR HOME AND YOU HAVE A RIGHT TO DEFEND IT AT ANY COST. IF THE NATIONAL AND STATE GOVERNMENT WON'T STOP LYNCHING YOU CAN AND IT IS YOUR DUTY. Remember Oklahoma. Remember Oklahoma and its brave women how they protected themselves. They broke the backbone of the lynching wave, and the people who were in the line of the men. Let your country be: IF YOU MUST DIE, TAKE ON WITH YOU. The spirit of those brave souls should not die. It should go marching on. Arise ye members of the race, gird your armor on about your loins, stand by your guns and dedicate yourselves to die that lynching may be stopped now and for all time. Every man's home is his castle. No matter how humble or how small. If a man pays his rent he is a prince of that land. If he is a slave of that land His children are as dear to him as a king or the richest man in the world and he is less than a man if he does not stand on his own. Upon this basis we advise our readers through the country to protect their homes. RACE MAN SHOULD BE DELEGATE Ralph Tylter, Columbus, O., has entered the race and filed his petition with the secretary of that state to run for the state convention, something definite should be done by some worthy citizen of this convention, something definite should be run from the First district. Heretofore a member of the race has been going as alternate, with never a vote, just a nomination, never to go as a nominee. A nominee is merely satisfied with the machine naming its men without ever consulting the leaders of the Second ward, save to say, "We have put one of your people on the ticket as alternate." The election is the next National Republican convention, members of the race to be魁 themselves and let Illinois be represented as well as Ohio, Kentucky and other states. The First Congressional district should be represented by a member of the race at the next convention, and if the united forces of the "Bolt" will unilionize they will not fail to make it.

Progressiveness is a slogan of the Republican League of the 22d assembly district, every member interested, heart and soul. The article that appeared in last week's issue of the Amsterdam News-Society column regarding the league is an annual column regarding the league as an honorable, progressive body, but to every individual connected with the organization. For instance, Mr. Edward Winrow, who is chairman of the hominist committee, has never been burdened with thecdots of the following to keep his eye on the dollars, as well as connected with the house committee has proven himself capable and above reproach. Mr. Herbert Warner, who is a committee member, was placed in charge for the office of the house committee of our house committee. And to say that the president, Stephen B. Mayo, was not present on such an important occasion as the formal opening of our new hall of the hall, Mr. Mayo is a man of honor and a man of the world. The same name appeared on the invitations that were sent to all parts of the city he was sure to be present, and was present. Just why our executive member, Mr. G. W. A. Murray, was not present for some unobtrusive reason, was not present in the article. It is a person's prerogative to assume a personal opinion, but unjust to try and seek revenge or vindication of the press. Authorized and signed by: Stephen B.

CHICAGO DEFENDER The World's Greatest Weekly SOME BALKAN HISTORY REAL BEGINNING OF THE KING- DOM OF MONTENEGRO Country's Records Date From the Ninth Century—Origin of the Name "Serb"—Order of Nobility Not Recognized. Montenegro does not date from the battle of Kossovo, in 1359, but from some year in the ninth century, for already in 1077 the first Serbian king was crowned in Montenegro, and he was grandson of an independent Serbian king, and grandson of an independent new thing which Montenegro received after the battle of Kossovo was its name, and even that was not given it immediately after the battle, but fully one century later. Before this time Montenegro was known as Zeta; the first king reigned in Cattaro; his second crowned Montenegro king lived in Scutari. The nobles of the old Serbian empire did not flee to the "Black mountain," but those who survived that battle remained with the son of King Lazar and with his nephew, George Despot, until 1469, or 70 years after the battles of Kossovo. After that date, and it is just as extinct today, was at that early date. Today Serbia has no nobility, and anyone today who possesses a Serbian or Montenegro noble is simply taking advantage of the credulity of the American people. The difference between the people of Montenegro and the people of Serbia is as pronounced as the difference between the inhabitants of New York and the two sepae into states, which are as much a product of historical events as these two American In the whole history of Serbia no such term as "Serves" can be found. The name "Serb" as a name and nationality was known to the old Roman historian Plinius (23-79 A.D.) and to the medieval historian Ivan (160 A.D.). That this name has nothing to do with the Latin term "serves" is evident from the fact that there is another Slav nationality with the same name—Sorbs of Lužica living under German rule for centuries, and of a term designating a social class. it was "Sbirr." Even this is not connected with the word "Serb." for the old Serbian kings called themselves "Sorbs." As late as 1453 Montenegro was under German rule but later, as the last remnants of the bian emples were wrested from the people, one Serbian nobleman attempted to rule independently in Montenegro. His son had submitted to the Turks and he himself, changing his name to Constantinople, as was the case of serviles in the Balkans. In 1713 one of the bishops—Bristolian Danilo—drove the Turks from Montenegro and thereby laid the cornerstones of Montenegro today. But there is one thing which only are there no noblemen in Montenegro today, but even the Petroviches are descendants of a peasant family. Both Serbs and Montenegro are the Serbian enemies against Turkish nobles against the boys and the spains. And it is this fact which constitutes one of the most sacred traditions of the Serbs at today. Therefore the claim to no nationality unscrupulous persons who sent sent sent considered an unpardonable offense against the people of Serbia and Montenegro—New York Times. This is a practical item, given by one who has endured almost endless torture as a result of tender feet and corns. To remove the corns, soap a snail sums and paddle over them. Soap a snail sums and paddle over the callous parts are worn off. Continue this every day until the corn disappears. Keep it soft with oils. If the corn is too sore in the baggy corner, it can be continued for several days to kill the skin. If the feet are afflicted with soft corns, powder prepared chalk, without making it too fine, and sprinkles between the toes. This does not harm the skin. It does not like talcum powder, and by being porous than the powder it separates the two portions of the corn. Always use white wool in preference to cotton wool because it is springy and will not harden like cotton. Indoor Constitutional Augustus O. Stanley, Kentucky's new governor, who has mounted the water wagon, announced recently that during his four-year term not a drop in bank will be allowed in the state house. "The campaign that I propose to wage against alcohol," said Governor Stanley, "is to be a thorough and honest campaign. There is too much hypocrisy among drinkers. Here is a typical instance: I was sitting on a trolley car beside two women who were returning together from an afternoon's shopping tour. "My husband goes out every evening for a little constitutional," one of the women said. Then she inquired: "No," replied the other. "No; my husband always keeps it in the house."—Washington Star.

The business men of the race in this city want to see a change. They belong to banks and it is their cherished hope that men who have the power to change the life of affairs would do so at an early time and be seen behind with its business institutions. Professionally, the members of the race stand higher here than any other city in the world. They are more well-known specialists here are more city in America, with their own hospital and opportunity for young physicians to be trained. They are more skillful in race representation with business houses. The Business Men's League, which at one time held away here and had a number of men is no active as it might be. The Business Men's League used to have monthly meetings and helped a number of men to start in business in Chicago, with all its wonderful opportunities to "make good," sleeping in the coming of spring business men should be careful about these things. They are important in improving your daughter. They are important in improving your race. Just in proportion as the race commercial and business world, just in proportion will the race live in the United States and other countries. INFOR MATION WANTED.

Chinese Servants The servants in a Chinese family are not expensive, so far as wages are concerned, but they cost a great deal in perquisites. They rarely receive more than two dollars a month, but they use their own body and help themselves lustfully to anything they may desire. They dress themselves from the old clothing of the family, freely take the hairstyles and the toilet articles of the mistress, clothe their warriors from the "army warriors" I positively guarantee my work to be the same as done at the college in St Louis, which means growth and beauty of the hair.

Tom had disguised in both appearances and brugue, as everything from his famous Chinese character to a Dagua hat, to his brow, to his morning the show left, from the depths of his big fur-lined Benney he inquired about, to his sake trunke to depot.

Tossing the dollar on the floor before him, he preffered the "bones" and with a broung grin on his face, said: "Brother, you done passed for everything else since you been in this heath hotel. Lennie see if you can pass for this 'bean.'" The Salamander, which comes to the States Theater on Saturday, March 4, is one of the pink perk specials from the show. It is based on the novel author. The story tells us that the city, and deplays the smares and pitfalls which confront a young and innocent girl. It is produced with an all star cast, and will positively be no children admitted. When Israeli Zangwill, the celebrated author, wrote "The Melting Pot," he gave to the world a story which, more than any other, drives home the lesson of the evils of race prejudice. This wonderful six part production created a profound sensation during its long run in the loop, and when it comes to the States Theater Sunday, March 5, the patrons of this popular house will have an opportunity to see how remarkably well the great legitimate actor, Walker Whiteside, created the character of David Quixano, the persecuted hero of the book. It will grip and thrill you, and will hold you spellbound to the very finish of the last reel. David Quixano, a young Jewish student of the violin, is left an orphan through the massacre of the orthodox Jews in Klsnheff by forces under the direction of Baron Ravendal, governor of Klsnheff. Wounded by a ball from the revolver of the baron, David takes refuge in the synagogue and is arrested with zevers of his faith who have fled there for safety. In the meantime Vera, the daughter of the baron, attracts the attention of spies because of her presence in the house of a revolutionist, although she has gone there on an errand of mercy. She at least quarrels with her father, who finds his duty in the merciless persecution and slaughter of those who have been slaves in shades, portrait of Alexander III before she. She is arrested, thrown in prison and sent to Silbera after her father turns against her. By changing clothes with a new outfit, she is transported to America, she makes her escape and finally reaches America. David is exiled to the United States where he lives in a home with his uncle and grandmother, place in an East Side concert hall, where he plays for the patrons of the hall, there era who has become a worker in the music industry, their common love for music brings them closer and closer together until a greater love becomes the big thing in their lives. Through Vera a music teacher is interested in her life and her position of a great symphony, which shall musically symbolize America as the huge "melting pot" of all races of the world, she learns that David and Vera are in love and throws David and his hilder from the Quiksa household. A busy body has cabled the Baron Ravendal that his master has sent from Vera to the baron hastens to America. In a scene fraught with dramatic intensity, David recognizes the master of the master's work, turns from Vera with the words: "Not! There is a river of blood between us!" The great symphony finished, David conducts the playing of it before a brilliant pianist. Overcame he seeks the solitudes of the night in the roof above the concert hall. There Yera finds him, and he marches ahead, already to see may see something New York spread below them. David takes her in his arms and indicates with his the great "moting pot" of the world. No mere stance production of the great symphony is possible in the theme in its mighty conception. The mobs in the massacre are realistic and in its work is horrifying in its terror. The States Theater could secure this attraction for one day only, and it opens at 3 o'clock alarms. The Phoenix Theater Orchestra is going great guns. It is directed by Henry James, the famous violinist, and models James McNeill, the painter, Glosser, piano, and Andrew James, traps. Will Riley, pianist, works the Owaty and Kirkpatrick played a return at the Howard, Washington, D. C., last week. They used their new act, Politics, and overcame the closed show and Billy McNeill's stock, which presented His Last Sin.

He is a member of the Elks Lodge, and is also a Mason, having joined that organization at Sydney, his Nassau brothers have been adding hitherto Wise, 1453 Nuuan street, Honolulu, T. I.

Their offices are located in the Gallety Theater building, Brunswick. Al Gaines has returned from Richmond, Va., where he went a week ago at the college of his father. Al is one of six children of all whom he is in the cast except Al. He says Chicago for him, first, last, and all the time. Seymour and James, those Glassy Kolonowski Kids, are trying for time in the west. Braxton and Nugent are in Philadelphia and will be seen on the Stroll soon. Seymour and Dixon are in Pittsburgh, Pa., and are visiting Boston looking that would bring them to Chicago. Burton Vaughan, the original Buzzer, will be soon. They are in Baltimore. Charle Anderson, the yodler, is in Philadelphia and may soon be seen at one of the Monograms. They are closing a four week engagement in stock at the Vaudette Theater, Detroit. They have written in for time on the Consolidated time. Perrin and Crosby sit at the Lycme Theater, Chicago, with Perrin, with the Vaudette Theater, Pittsburgh and Philadelphia to follow. Tim Moore and Creale Brown opened at the Pokin Themed Springfield, Ill., on Monday. In conjunction with pictures, ord is being read. THE GRAND. 8. H. Dudley, in the Ministrel Man, assisted by Will Ransey, is the headliner here this week, and the act is a scream from start to finish, including Dudley has ever played in vaudeville, and the Inimitable concession has in Ransey a partner who lives and feeds in a town that keeps him on an excellent speed and renders an easy ladie, which elected much of Ransey. Dudley, who knocks them out, sets, and everything was howl clear to the closing song, a dugo, But I’d Like to Be in a Ministrel Man, after which he must create a curtain speech, which he did in characteristic style. The Ransey Duo opened the show, conglomerating dances and trick sets, and were followed by Irving Gosar in a cabaret turn which掩, the sketch. Jack Hook, which was presented by him, was well acted, although there have been many, and many, better sketches seen here in the show, show clowning and a comedian, including dancing, foot balancing, tumbling and jugging by the Tetsuwan Jap, their special drop was the handsome one, ever half last week carried over the musical team of Houseley & Nicola, who remained popular. The others on the hit show were Geraldine Gershwin, a clever gestalt, Foot Girl, a clever sister team; Walter Baker & Co. in a crackerjack illusion and skelgings, Cakwale, which is headed by George Flahler, the tango artist, and Isabella Glenn, the tango artist, and Caryl Brose, the footwork of Curnes Brose, deserved special mention. THE MONOGRAM. Toy & tuddy trown are presenting a new act here this week. Alias Brown does a male imitation. The act is easily the best in their repertoire. Josephine Tobina, the famous vocalist, is putting her songs over her clients' much applause. Johnny Woods and Littie have lost not only popularity, Johnny is putting plenty of new words in lieu's mouth, and the dialogue is both effective and excellent here. NEW MONOGRAM. The famous Whitman Sisters, with their company of ten, are playing their initial engagement here to record business; this company is not a stock concern, but is billed as a vaudeville aggregation. The piece being presented is Maria Green's Wedding, and it is a plot from the beginning. Miss Bert Whitman, who works under cork, handles the title role, and as a comedian is easily the best ever seen at this house. Indeed, comedienes who work blackface are so few that Miss Whitman is a distinct novelty, and one who knows how to present her stuff without stooping is the consensus so frequently used under the name of the first-class. Cleaviness in both dialogue and actions distinctively stands out, and the costuming is greasy a revelation to the regular who are accustomed to the laxity and confessions of dressing frequently displayed by both sex and individual acts in the different Vaudeville houses on The Stroll. Thomas Hawkins, the principal coadjutor, is good and is ably assisted in its work by Sambo Radd. Aaron Palm, straight, is clever and does a song and street dance well. Babe Whitman is a good juvenile, and Mabel and Esie Whitman are finished performers. Dialogue, lyrics and music are all original and unpublished, and are protected by copyright. The company is in a class by the kolf and has worked 30 consecutive weeks. The Whitman Slaters are the daughters of the late latee. Whitman, poet and scholar, and are highly educated in music, letters and otherwise. AMONG THE MCVIES THE PHOENIX Monday's regular, The Girl and the Game, was run with a Dash Through Flame to good honour.

He promptly turned over the money to Patersonus, who forthwith built a house in which the duke placed a stone with a Patersonus crest bearing the motto, "Far and Sure." The Man Who Wins No two men can take a thing just alike, and very few can sit down quietly when they have lost a fall in life's wrestle and say: "Well, here I am, beaten, no doubt, this time; by my own fault, too.

DEPRIEST Dear Sir: Permit me to express my sympathy for you and my indignation against the Tribune for the manner in which you have been caricatured in today's issue of that newspaper. An organ which assumes to guide the people of this great city should remember that all men come from one great source, to which they also return, and that in our journey through life we should aim to be fair to each other—not seize on the accident of color in the attempt to inflame sentiment against an opponent. Instead of having exaggerated. Such was the impression of myself and the engineer when you called at this school. You are, however, in good company when you are attacked unfairly by the Tribune, for such estimable men as John D. Shoop and Governor Dunne have suffered a similar fate at their hands. While a Democrat, I want everyone to have a "square deal," and I want issues decided on facts, not personalities. Sincerely, A. M. Doofin, principal of Webster School; member Illinois State Board of Education. LIGHTNING FLASHES DUKING SNOW STORM KINGSLEY A HARD WORKER Famous Author Often Broke Down and Had to Quit—His Impressive Kingsley's life was a series of ups and downs. He would work with such fury, writing letters, preaching, visiting the sick, teaching, smoking all day, and at night, after the rest of the house were all in bed, sitting up till the small hours writing at one of his novels, that, after several months of this kind of thing, he would have a breakdown and he ordered to quit. At first he thought what he needed was physical exercise, and off he would go on a long tramp or a fishing trip. But soon he learned that what he must have was absolute quiet, says Hildegarde Hawthorne in St. Nicholas, and then he would sit for hours in the sun, soaking in some lovely scene before him and waiting till his energy returned, as peacefully as he might. Every now and then he was obliged to intense fits of depression, such as man of his temper are apt to suffer, but his buoyant spirit soon came singing home again, and the boy in him waked with a shout, ready for play and for work. Kingsley made a treme as impression in his lifetime, not much from anything he actually di... but because of all he hoped and wanted to do, and tried to make people see was worth doing. His sermons were listened to breathlessly; and though the conventional churchmen did not approve of him, his congregations loved him. Once he was preaching to a throng of workingmen, and, when he had finished, the incumbent, one of the dignitaries of the church, rose and said that he did not believe in most of what Mr. Kingsley had said and had expected a very different sermon. Kingsley made no reply, simply bowing his head. But as silked back through the aisle the men in the church out their hands to touch him as he passed and murmured blessings on him.

No Two Faces Allke The boss barber, who worked at the first chair in a Broadway shop in the intervals when he wasn't punching the cash register, stepped over to an old customer who had just entered and said in a low tone: "Your regular barber is sick today. Try that man on the fourth chair. He's a good shaver." "He is not," said the customer. "I've tried him. Guess I'll tell 'em grow until tomorrow." "To tell the truth," said the boss, "I can't tell which of my barbers are good. The other day I was shaving a man who told me that man on the fourth chair was the best barber he'd ever struck. But I also have heard men say, like you, that he was a man. He's the same about the men in this shop. He's lose a lot of trade because men go too much on their first impressions of barbers. But what can I do? Shall I fire that barber who he says nearly scraped his face off? Of course not. That's the sort I'm up against all the time: It's because no two faces are alike."

DEFENDER'S LEGAL HELPS Defender's Legal Help.—I sold my furnished flat to a man for $328, the man buying my flat gave me a butt, and represented that it would be cashed at his caries the note to his bank and the bank has the right to the goods; what can I do to get the money or my things? Answer: You have a right to sue on the terms you pay due or you may rescind the terms you pay. Goods, consult any reputable lawyer who will take care of the case for you. Answer: Legal help—I worked two weeks for a man for $10 per week, but he has failed to pay me anything. When I asked for my money, the man arrived he would pay me. Now he waited for two months and received no written demand to serve him with a written demand to find him at home any more. If it necessary to serve him with a written demand before I can sue for my money? the state requires service of written demand for wages before suit attorney's fees are allowed. But you can sue at once on your wages without the written demand. Defender's Legal Helps—I have been informed that women past the age of eighteen years are considered in law as persons grown can exercise all rights of persons voting as well. Does the same apply to voting as well? Answer: No. All women to be entitled to vote in the State of Illinois must have passed the age of 21. How Land Work Affects Climate. The character of climates is variously affected by the presence or absence of trees and other vegetation. In a 'British association address, Sir Charles P. Lucas noted that climates became both hotter and colder when the surface of the earth has been bared by the cutting down of trees; they be come drier or molster with the destruction or planting of trees; and healthfulness or unhealthfulness may be determined by the removal or retaining of the forests. The Canadian northwest is cited as an example. Broken or plowed land does not retain snow and ice like the unbroken prairie surface, but it is more retainable of moisture and the heat of the sun. As a result there has been perceptible agricultural improvement of the climate, with an extension of the wheat belt considerably farther north than formerly. Lord Strathcarr is beoved that the rails and telegraph brought some change even before the coming of the settlers, an increase in dew and moisture having been quite evident near the railway.

ROTEST GIRL'S DISMISSAL shelled by the state of Massachusetts because she was a colored person." Mr. Tews said. "She was to which, it is alleged, Miss Bostoni forced to submit while at the hospital. old, or whether she is mourning backwards and South Carolina and Alabama. No white woman can feel differently in this matter than she so holdd herself. Whether the law is so holdd herself, she must care of so that this thing cannot harm her again. You may be held back from the director's office, but once across the threshold, no governor would deny you satisfaction." William Dexter-Brightam said: "Both would please Georgia or Alabama better. The French sustained by Massachusetts in his action, for it would bring out the point that the state always contended—resisting the sorrow of indiviuals in eating and sleeping. What makes this situation is that it is done by the state. If it is managed, it shames to employ a certain class of individual is its own business. The head of a institution deduces employment to a citizen. The state laws force restaurant keepers to serve persons of color. In this case the restaurant has to do what she makes the restaurant do, and the Christianity to have such a thing occur. I should think that Dr. French would be married and of his system of petty perceptions." WALTER STANTON DIES. Cincinnati, O. March 3. — Walters H.

He made a hard work organization within a few hundred votes of hearing the organization candidate, Oscar De Darwin, who entered the light recently with no organization waited until the last two issues before the election to advertise his candidacy. De Darwin, all things considered, made good race and proved that, though not a ward or precinct committee was with him, he was a good candidate to vote, showing conclusively that he had a great deal of support of the race vote to the warrior, Purker, who ran third, best of the three.

ANTS PROVIDED WITH LIGHT Curious Phenomenon That Has for Some Time Attracted Attention of Scientists. There has been observed a curious phenomenon connected with the nests of the Brazilian white ants or termites, these, when seen on the headwaters of the Rio Verde, seem to be covered with tiny stars, which give the nest a aspect of a miniature tower brilliantly illuminated. When the nest is struck with a stick the lights go out, only to rear again little by little. Castelnau, in the middle of the last century, reported a similar spectacle near the city of Goya. According to his account, the lights were produced by an immense number of small photospear larvae, which withdrew into the galleries of the mound when an attempt was made to capture them. It has been pointed out by several authorities that these exhibitions are probably confined to some particular conditions of a special occasion conditions of termite life, since many scientists have spent considerable periods of investigation in Brazil without seeing them. The secret, they told me, is the New York Prison association. "Of the answer a thief gave to the question 'Is honesty the best policy.'" It was in the Elmham reformatory, where a class was undergoing instruction. A young man asked permission to answer the question. "I believe honesty is the best policy, but I know it case when I know it to work that See." There was two young followers in New York and they was crooked, see? And they didn't succeed. They went to Philadelphia, and they turned over a new leaf and agreed to be square and honest. They opened a clothing store, see? And they prospered. They got verybody confidence, and they bought 000 to enquire, business, and then called and gotway with every cent of the money, which they could have done if they hadn't been honest. See? Restoring Fatlued Nucle A very ingenious psiological method of increasing the need of labor from any given group muscles is described in the Deute Revue. According to an abstract Die Umschau the author, Th. Wr. claims that in practice a gain obm 22 to 40 per cent is obtains in the amount of work done, extremely also. Whose given group muscles has lied the cause of exhaustion, due the accumulation of the product fatigue, they are allowed to rest, so an entirely different muscle gets set to work vigorously. The otic contraction of these muscles increases in heart action circulation, and the strengthened-vent blood thus seals the blood that seals the body parts and restores working power of the first group muscles by carrying away fatigues and smoking oxygen.

Few people know that a great deal of the ivory from which our piano keys, billiard balls, knife handles and combs are made is collected in Silberia from the fossil remains of the giant mammoth, the great-greatmother of the elephant. Many of these tusks are a quarter of a million years old, having been preserved in frozen soil or ancient ice recently brought to the surface. Monument of Skulls The Turks, when they defeated the Serbs in 1809, erected at Nish a righthower composed alternately of lumps of rocks and Serb skulls cemented together. Of the 1,200 or so skulls originally included, all except one which was a mortar. The mortar, have been carried away by unintentive curiosity assers.

FIRST THOUGHTS OF MEDICINE Tillers of the Soil Believed to Have Originated Primal Ideas That Have Grown. It is of romance that the primal husbandman or shepherd conceived of a philosophy of medicine while plating spade or keeping the flocks; that, tilling and sowing in 'the ground, or 'sitting at a mountain's foot, a keeper and commander of poor beasts,' man became contemplative of the universe that framed his small body and, by consequence, thought upon his own body that held his spirit. Analogies were suggested; of earth and dust with flesh, of stones and rocks with bones. Then came considerations of the constitution and process of greater nature and the application of both to human and lesser nature. As men perceived the action of the four primary elements in the body of the world and marked that it was by their proportionable agreement that harmony provailed therein, so they imagined that the four elemental qualities, viz., heat, cold, dryness, moisture, were to be recognized and brought into harmony in their human bodies. Current for Heating Homes According to the Electrical World, electric heating has been seriously tried in a great many places in Norway, and reports made by a royal commission indicate that a pleasant, even temperature is possible with an expenditure of from 50 watts to 35 watts per cubic meter of space—35 cubic feet. This will keep the temperature of a room at 64 degrees Fahrenheit with auxiliary heating when the thermometer registers as low as from 10 to 5 degrees Fahrenheit. Under these circumstances electric heating is as safe than other fuel when the temperature is applied at $7 to $2.25 per horse power per minute on maximum demand. — Scientist American. --- False Eyes for Animals. Among the most difficult things which taxidermists have to do is making glass eyes for the animals they mount. These eyes are made of glass, hollow within and open at the back, so that the inner surface may be painted any color. No two animal eyes are alike, and it requires a great deal of skill and practice before a man is competent to paint the eyes quickly. A lion's eye, for example, is large and brownish-black, while the lris is much smaller and much such a peculiar fashion that it is so equally difficult to imitate it. The eye of a giraffe is still more difficult, as that animal has a brownish-black eye with a peculiar purplish sheen, very hard to imitate. The Number Seven Seven is frequently used as a mystical and symbolical number in the Bible, as well as among the principal nations of antiquity, such as the Persians, Egyptians, Greeks, Romans, etc. In the Bible we have the Creation account, and every sixth year was the Sabbath year, and seven times seven years ushered in the Jubilee. We have the seven altars, seven green withes, seven locks, seven angels, seven eyes which are the seven spirits of God. In light we have the seven prismatic colors, which make the pure white light. In light we have the seven sleepers, seven wise masters, seven wise men of Greece—Bias, Cleobulus, Chilo, Pittius, Perlander, Solan, Thales. Magnets in Surgery No end of suffering is being prevented and life itself is frequently saved by the use of a strong magnet for the extraction of bits of metal which have become imbedded in the bodies of iron and steel worker. Lifting heavy weights by the aid of magnets is not an unusual engineering operation, but their use in surgery is something quite now. Explainng "Tabby Cat." Few people are aware that the name "tabby cat" owes its origin to Atab, a famous street of Bagdad, chiefly occupied by the manufacturers of the silken stuffs called Atab, our "ufetra" silken clothing of the watered silk resembles puffs of cotton, and is how "tabby" came into use as a common expression. Name That Will Live Izaak Walton founded "no empire, established no dynasty, fought no battle, originated no school of philosophy, or science or art, but he gave us the "Competent Angler," and because he did that his name will forever live in the world's grateful remembrance. Real Living. Life is what we are alive to. It is not length but breadth. To be alive only to appetite, pleasure, pride, money-making, and not to goodness and kindness, purity and love; history, poetry, music, flowers, stars, God and eternal hopes, is to be all but dead.—Mattie Babcock.

GETTING AN EDUCATION GUE BUT TRUE that the things we bring as those we see in the distance. In attachment, perhaps it is because of seeing everything within reach. In the matters in life records prove that it is who makes the most of their school has a hard struggle financially, the gradates to the graduating period is often physical suffering. There is absolutely no excuse for ignoring and all seats of learning are not only of the most flattering kind.

IT IS STRANGER BUT TRUE that the things we have never seen seem quite so facinating as those we see in the distance. Perhaps it is because distance lends enchantment, perhaps it is because of selfishness, a desire to have and to hold everything within reach. In the matter of fitting oneself for the higher things in life records prove that it is not the boy or girl well-to-do parents who makes the most of their schooling, but rather the boy or girl who has a hard struggle financially, the one who has gone through the different grades to the graduating period by dint of hard work, self denial and often physical suffering. In the north there is absolutely no excuse for ignorance. The doors of schools, colleges and all seats of learning are not only open to all, but inductions offered of the most flattering kind. The public schools, free as air, are conducted on the highest plane and the students who leave with a diploma, if no further education is received, are able to shift for themselves with every prospect of meeting success. What a different picture the south presents. It is the exception, not the rule, as some measures up to the standard, and because of segregation conditions for a school with more public. In the rural and semiarid districts schools are few and far between. In the town town is sometimes as low as three months in a year. With all of the district mergers, the members of our race in the south slowly but surely advance. The reason that they take advantage of every opportunity to get in touch. They see the necessity of making something out of themselves and are working to that end. They propose hereafter to be assets to a community, not liabilities. is gratifying to note that the race has become awakened to the need for education, education that will be practical that will furnish the implement for personal and community service. There are many who claim to be educated who have no practical ideas about anything. One is not educated if they have not been taught something that will be of benefit to themselves their country. Education is no education if it does not give the person wellhood, or rather give them an earning power. Education does not mean a thorough knowledge of things which cannot fit one life. it means that a person has trained himself for a position at this institution. It means that a person is scamming a nurse, etc. If a person has been trained in anything well, did that they are educated. There is little danger of getting too much wedge. It matters not how old we may be, there is always something new and worth to learn. When you reach the point that you know it all, it is time to call in a phrenologist and have your head examined.

This class of people in the main have never been thrown on their own resources, have never had to make their own living and what has come to them has come through the efforts of someone else. They never were called upon to make sacrifices, so in a measure they grow thoughtless and selfish. The rude awakening comes only when fortune's wheel gives a blank instead of a prize. The story is told of a bride and groom who want flat hunting. They discovered a charming silent. The pretty, fashion-loving young wife was enthusiastic, the husband silent. When the owner said the rent was $65 a month the young man shook his head. "But it suits me exactly," said the girl; "I just can't give it up." There were again weak protests from the husband, mild negatives, and, finally, "Of course, darling, if you say you want it, we'll take it." The young man was getting a salary of $75 per month, but she wanted the flat and got it. District attorneys and jail wardens know "what happens next" in hundreds of similar cases.

LOUIS HOPE PREJUDICE Tom Holly EVERY SOFTX some southern fire-eater hops up long enough to get his name in the papers as an advocate of the repeal of the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. A bucket of cold water is poured on his proposition and he subsides for the time being. "How to eliminate the Negro vote" is a stock southern phrase. Is there any logical reason why we should be denied the ballot which is a voice in the government? Are we not in numbers and usefulness a conspicuous part of this government? The fifteenth amendment was not a mistake, it was divinely ordained. Repeal it and you block from our flag a star of hope, and leave millions of people orphaned of country and worse then slaves, for we would have neither the ballot for defense nor the protection of an owner's self-interest in his property, as was the case in those dark days. Country like this, dedicated to personal liberty and self-government, the denial of political rights must be braved on just and fundamental distinctions. So long as certain elements of the south cling to the hallucination that the worst of white men is better than the best of black men, so long will the south suffer, for it is a false conceit, a wicked conceit, an obsolete conceit, and freedom in its march will not turn backward. The right of the ballot is the sign and safeguard of our liberty. Without it, slavery rules and reigns, democracy dies and humanity becomes the chattel of the mighty. The ballot has been won only after rivers of blood have flowed and millions of men have died. It has grasped the hand of the free man the moment the shackles were stricken from his limbs, and it has been the strength of his arm and the strong weapon of his defense in all the history of humanity since man was released from his ancient thralldom. There is no power on earth that can for any great length of time again deprive us of our God-given rights. We have tasted of the bitter for years. We have slipped the sweets but for a short time; want more not as a favor, but as our right, and as such are demanding, not asking it. HELP THE OLD FOLKS. THAT THE THINKING PEOPLE of Chicago have come to a realization of the needs of the Home for Aged and Infirm Colored People is evidenced by the number of benefits recently given for it and those in contemplation. There is an indebtedness of something over $1,400 for actual necessities that must be met within the next few weeks. Not a Herculean task for a class of people who in a comparatively short time raised $65,000 toward the building of a Y. M. C. A. Of all charitable institutions in the city, this is the one most deserving of our financial aid, for without our assistance the doors must be closed and the kindly old people within its walls, who have served humanity long and well, turned into the streets to go—only their Maker knows where. On Monday evening, March 6, at the Eighth Regiment Armory a monster citizen's ball will be given for their benefit, and it is truly a citizen's affair for high and low, rich and poor are joining hands to make it the success it undoubtedly will be. Music, printing and nearly everything else is being donated, so there need be no fear where YOUR money will go. The Defender is always glad to open its columns to a cause so worthy and feels sure that not only will the debt be wiped out but a neat little sum be left over to tide them on their way. IF NOT PREJUDICE, WHAT? MISS JANE BOSFIELD, stenographer in a Massachusetts state hospital, lost her position "for insubordination," says the superintendent. Incidentally she was a "brunette," and it is strange but true how easily blondes pick flaws in people who have the slightest tinge of color. The Boston Post insists so on telling the truth and speaking right out in meeting. They say that back of that "insubordination," if such it be, was a cause that could have been and should have been met and ended at its very inception. And that cause was the drawing of the color line in an institution controlled by the commonwealth of Massachusetts. There is no denial of the fact that the trouble arose because the other employees of the hospital objected to sitting in the same dining room with this colored girl, although it seems evident that the highest authorities of the institution did not object to sitting in the same office with her. The time to have scotched this race prejudice was right then. It should have been made clear to the employees who felt contaminated by eating in the same room with this well educated and refined girl that there would be no objection to their resignations at any time they wanted to send them in, but that Miss Bosfield would continue to eat in the main dining room. There would have been no resignations. IF ANYBODY IMAGINES that prices are not affected in this country by the war in Europe, let inquiry be made where reliable information is obtainable.

A close study is made of bird or animal in question. What are the best conditions for the chicken? What are the most favorable conditions for my chickens, for my stock? These are the questions pondered over and answered by the people interested. This in each instance is good business; it means big returns, and man is always mighty perseverant. He realizes their full meaning to him. There is a public business, however, a your-and-mine business which is sadly, nay, deplorably, neglected and misused by men who will make good, efficient citizens out of that material, which so often goes to waste, known as the "business men," and what conditions produce him? What varieties of him are there? What can we do to eliminate him from the social structure? Where shall he be studied to understand his role in the society for your sociologists to answer. The bad boy is the effect of a cause, or the effects sometimes of causes. Heredity, environment, and social factors are Home and away from home associations are other factors in the problem. He is all in all that social sore spot for which he must prevent his becoming that peculiar car which afflicts society called the criminal. There are many kinds of him, perhaps, but there are three prevalent kinds, which is the boy who is just inherently and in a proposition exceedingly hard to handle. There is the kind produced by environment, bad association and bad example, and can usually be reclaimed to society, and can be mentioned conditions are altered in time. The last is the pittable of all cases, because he is the result of a weak will, and his course in life depends entirely on his associates. A strong, firm hand is needed to keep his ship of life off the rocks. The so-called bad boy is produced largely by the street and its slide rooms, poolrooms, saloons and cheap clubs. He is most advantageously studied here. The newsboy perhaps knows more real life sociology and philosophy than any laboratory student can ever know—he is a man of the street world. The street is a world entirely unlike any other; it has its own laws and its own codes of morality and ethics. The writer has seen and known all varieties of the bad boy, has studied them to see of what causes were they the effects. More, he was almost one of them; his escape from the real bad boy class. He has seen the bad grow worse; he has seen him grow better; has seen him win honors on the collegiate athletic fields; has seen him go into responsible positions. He has seen him go to the places called reformatories, has seen him pleading before the bar of justice for his very life; has seen him win medals for personal courage in the navy. He has seen him take every path, good or bad. It is those who ultimately choose the wrong that the world is most concerned about. Jack's father gambled and drank. So did Jack, and wore.

But the question remains—How in the great King going to come? Will the heavens suddenly open and the sound of the earth announce that the speedy descent upon us? Am I that could not be, for material things do not exist in the Spherical Realms, and it would have to hear with our material ears; and our material eyes could not perceive a Sprite that is a parent of our parents, and grow up in like manner with our harmonize with the laws He Himself has established, and to conform to that which He hath ordained for Himself, He has grown in like manner with parents, and grown into this world. God will never perform any unnecessary miracles, nor perform any unnecessary miracles, nor accomplish what He has preordained. There need be no speculation as to the manner of His coming, for the Bible is written in 955. "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government that he upon his shoulder, nurture him upon his shoulder, ful, Counselor, the Mighty God, the Everlasting Father, the Prince of Peace," Many misguided people, ignorant of the nature of God, sacred writings, have confounded this passage with the prophecies relating to the coming of Christ, and for proof of the truth of the prophecies of Christ Himself to understand that it did not refer to Him, but to the One whom He prophesied should come after Him. He was greater than He—"The Father, the Lord of the Vineyard, who would come and be his husbandman who cast his son a slave and killed him"—Luke 20:5; Mark 12:1 Christ did not claim to be "The Prince of Peace"—but did claim for Himself the very reverse, Luke 12:51-53: "Suppose ye that I am come to give peace on earth? I tell you, nay; but rather division: For from henceforth there shall be five in one house divided, three against two, and two against three. The father shall be divided against the son, and the son against the father; the mother against the daughter, and the daughter against the mother; the mother-in-law against the daughter-in-law, and the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law." In Matt. 10:36, this passage ends: "And a man's foes shall be they of his own household." The Most Great Peace, which Christ and the Prophets referred to at dives into the history of the advent of the Prince of Peace, the Lord of the Vineyard, after he would come to the husbandman, and give it to those worthy, the same time referred to by after that Michael should stand up. After that Michael mentioned in Daniel, 12th Chapter indeed is he that waiteth and cometh to three hundred and five and thirty days." In another Talk we will have occasion to fulfil this to the very important passage. The prophecies thus far quoted, show us plainly that God is to come to this earth, and establish His everlasting Kingdom; that He will come as a man, and coming as such, will be born of earthly parents, and grow up like other children born into this world. But some may say, if the miraculous does not attend His coming, how shall we know Him, and also know the time when to look for Him, and in what part of the world will He make His appearance. At the same time, he says he never shall be again. Here again he says he is not a man, and that time, it tells us, He shall send an advance. Malachi 2:1—"Behold my send My Messenger, and He shall prepare the way before Me, and the Lord whom ye seek shall suddenly come to His temple, even the Messenger of the Covenant whom ye delight in, behold He shall come, sain the Lord of Hosts," but you may say you are in as great a dilemma as ever, for how shall we know the Messenger, that He is the one? Chris. said: "The day or the hour no man knoweth," but after mentioning the man's things that would happen before the Great Event would take place. He reminds us that "when we shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the time." But, 24. Daniel informs us that at that time he is not unlearned, but the wicked will not understand." Now who are the wise and the wicked? The wise are they who are the wicked? The wise are they who are according to the teachings of the Sacred Writings, are honestly seeking to know God, and the wicked, those who are indifferent but God, and unconcerned about Spiritual things. The Angel told Daniel "to close the book and seal it until the time of the end," hence the Bible would be a sealed book until the Messenger should come who would reveal its hidden words. The Bible is a book of prophecies, forecasting future events, and there is no possible way of proving the prophecy until the prophecy is fulfilled, and to those who are not earnestly seeking the light of God's Truth, how can they understand the Wonderful Book? Isaiah reminds us of this, Chapter 29:11, 12—And the vision of all is become unto you as the word of a book that is sealed, which men deliver to one that is learned, sayings, read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I cannot; for it is sealed. And the book is delivered to him that is not learned, saints, read this, I pray thee; and he saith, I am not learned." The learned say that, cannot read it, because it is a sealed book to them, and the unlearned say they cannot read it, because they are unlearned. As before remarked, there is no way of proving prophecy until the prophecy of Jesus is given, which is an event, or series of events, which is an event, take place at a given time in the future. is there any possible way that I can conceive of the time arrives for their fulfillment? Certainly not. We must wait until the appointed time, then if they come to be prophesied, we must love them to be a prophet; but if they do not come to be, then you would not come to be, then you would be in condemnation me as a fruit. And it is in this light that we toward the Bible; until we have been instructed in the hidden meaning of its words, we can understand to us, and we cannot rightly understand prophecies must surely come to pass. before we can believe them. The office of the prophet, godly and good will be to break the seal, godly and blessations, and the wonders mentioned in Daniel 12:6, revealing to us the fulfillment of prophecy; and by this we shall know Him. Already the Sun of Truth hath arisen in the obscure horizon of prophetic wonders, and its clarifying rays, so bright and penetrating, have lighted up the understanding of the wise, and with them have caused those wonders to end. The prophecy of Isaiah they know for a certainty has been fulfilled, Chap. 9:V. 2, 3—"The people that walk in darkness have seen a great light; they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined." The Advancer, the Messenger, whom God would send, the One whom He promised He would give us, who would feed us with knowledge and understanding, has come. The people that walk in darkness have seen the Great Light, upon them hath the Light shined. And in our next Talk we will tell the wonderful story of how, when and where He came, and the marvelous things He has revealed. Oidcat and Best.

Over 3,000 patients are treated annually at this dispensary free of charge, except they pay a nominal fee, or the cost of their medicine. Doctors and nurses' services are given freely. The dispensary, or outdoor department, is intended primarily to give free service to the worthy poor of the neighborhood, regardless of race or nationality, and during the twenty-five years of existence the hospital and dispensary nearly 100,000 people have received treatment in various departments, at the hands of both colored and white physicians. This department is open each day in the week from 9 till 11 a.m. for the reception and treatment of the worthy poor. There is in constant attendance a trained nurse who makes a record of the patient's complaint and issues a card to the patient, assigning him or her to whatever department necessary. There is also a regular registered drugstrict or pharmacist whose business it is to compound and administer for the medicine prescribed by physicians prescriptions are filled and given to the patient at the minimum cost price. The dispensary has connected with it a well stocked drug room filled with fresh up-to-date drugs. The Medical Department The medical department is divided into surgical department, department of disease of women, department disease of children, department of eye ear, nose and throat diseases. With specially trained men in each department, the services given compare most favorably with that given in any other dispensary in the city. The dispensary maintains a lying-in department. By and through this department many medical students, both white and colored, have obtained and are obtaining their obstical training. In fact, through the lying-in department of Provider Hospital Dispensary, is the only one urged medical students in some of the larger medical colleges can obtain their maternity training. For the reason it does not make any difference in the social scale or how low down in the social scale the man may be, or how refined, educated or careful the colored medical student may be, he is not permitted to officiate, or obtain his obstical training in the maternity hospital where white women, whatever nationality they may be are confined. Hence, the lying-in department of Provident Hospital is the only open door that WELCOMES the Negro medical student in obtaining his training along this particular line. Children's Department One fact stands out in bold relief to the credit of Provident Hospital Dispensary, that no sick child is ever denied treatment in this dispensary, or hospital; babies are taken as long as there is any room, if they are in need of dispensary or hospital care with EDITOR'S MAIL EDITOR'S MAIL Los Angeles, Cal., March 31, 1965.

Diet Kitchen. A diet kitchen is maintains preparing of feedings and feedings are prepared and g annually. Mothers bring the ee to be filled for their babies are taught how to prepare these, and how to keep them wholesome when they are prepared. Over 20,000 bottled feedings are being filled annually in this department. This great work for the feeding and caring for sick babies was made possible, and is being made possible by and through the proceeds derived from Tag Day, under the Woman's Auxiliary Board. Social Service Work. The social service department was created a few years ago, for the purpose of bringing the hospital and dispensary benefits into closer relation to the patient and families of the neighborhood. The hospital employs a paid social service nurse whose business it is to visit the worthy poor in the district of the hospital and administer, as far as possible, to these indigenous patients. Through the social service nurse, food is provided to the deserving, clothing is furnished to the needy, coal, milk, ice and very often employment is secured. Mothers are taught in their homes how to care for their sick babies, and how to keep their homes in the best possible sanitary and hygienic condition. Many of the poor children in the locality of provident Hospital Dispensary would have gone without the enjoyment of Christmas holidays, but the work of the social service nurse During Christmas holidays children, for the number of 600 or 600, are entertained in the dispensary with a Christmas tree and every child is given a present—a toy—furnished refreshments and takes home with it a well filled stocking. Summer Outing. Each summer an outline is furnished for the children of the neighborhood. The children are taken to Jackson or Washington Park, furnished a lounge and those without clothing or shoes necessary for them to attend the picnic are all provided through the social service nurse. Free transportation in automobiles, cabins, and street cars are furnished to these children through the work of the social service nurse of Provident Hospital Dispensary. From the above facts you can see that Provident Hospital Dispensary is giving more free service to the colored people of the South Side than any other dispensary, and yet a great many colored people will tell you that they did not know that there is connective a free dispensary with Provident hospital. There is no other dispensare in the city that care for and looks after the welfare of the poor colored children as Provident Hospital Dispensary has done and is doing everyday.
