DISLOYALTY TO THE RACF It is a matter of serious regret that at this critical moment in our history we find now and then not a few Negro miscreants in the south making issue against the most sacred claims of citizenship. They have gone so far as to surrender every claim of manhood and have sanctioned the ends sought for their own humiliation and shame. They favor the basest means instituted for their subjection and say to their poor people "they should be satisfied to be allowed to live in the south." It is this class of men who to-day are doing so much to discount the race and destroy their prestage. We need to wield a wise and wholesome influence for the cause of righteousness. We need to enlist our best forces and ablest men to champion our cause, for despite all that may be said and done, the republic cannot survive and the liberties of the people cannot be preserved, unless justice is met out to all. Regardless of all the wrong heaped upon this struggling people, there remains but a single task before Afro-Americans. Let them plant themselves on the side of the right and let them join hands with the men who stood for equal liberty and protection. It is not for us to aggrandize ourselves, not enough that we push the battle for ourselves. Ours should be a nobler purpose. Afro-Americans must remain loyal to every duty. Let others falter and fail, but our cause is dearer than life and for it men must die. Much to our chagrin we find Negro professors and lawyers in the south pandering to the meanest motives in order to conserve a paltry gain. For position and favor we find not a few taking side against their own best interest, and they venture now to assail the nation's head. In doing this they have committed a wrong for which they cannot easily atone. Once more we entreat the men of our race to stand guard, stand firm and do their whole duty. REV. DR. PARKHURST COMPROMISING. At the Madison Square Presbyterian church Dr. Parkhurst preached a sermon incidentally referring to the Negro question. He said: "The Negro ought to be thankful that the institution of slavery existed, and such of them as are not yet drawn under any other system of government would be better off if the institution still existed." The above is simply outrageous. We say, A thousand times, NO! The enslavement of any portion of the human family under any circumstances and at any time is a curse which finds no sanction in reason or religion. The suffering and degradation of the races afford conclusive proof that the institution is known only as the mother of crimes. If Dr. Parkhurst can reconcile himself to the fact that human slavery is a necessity under certain circumstances, he should not forget to bear in mind that slavery is a thing that is hurtful to the master as well as to the slave; that it debases, degrades and disqualifies all men for the management of government. Freedom elevates, but slavery deepens the degradation of the meanest of men. Regardless of whatever condition in which the Negro may have been found, slavery is an absolute wrong and no sophistry of reasoning can make it right. It would have been better for the Negro, better for America and the world, that African slavery had never been introduced into this country. King George the Third committed the unpardonable sin when he rejected the petition of the Virginia legislature to exclude the slave trade from the colonies. The system was conceived in iniquity, and who shall say in the face of the terrible and awful picture before us what shall be the final outcome? Mr. Parkhurst has been saying some things very recently that have not been in accord with southern feelings. Does he feel called upon to atone for his offending? Let the doctor beware that in making concessions he shall not make the surrender at a sacrifice of the great principle of truth and justice. A GROWING BAD ELEMENT IN CONGRESS. That there is a bad and dangerous element in the American congress today cannot be denied. The senate very especially contains at least one or two mountebanks and masqueraders who are bent on gaining notoriety even at the sacrifice of truth and honor. In the absence of true statesmanship, there is the show of the spirit of southern domination and the rancor of the ward politician. The intolerable and low flung epi- "Don't stan' anrow' tellin' how much you would have won if yoh hose had come in fust." said Uncle Eben.

Lowell Cotton Mills Cannot Afford to Increase Wages. Massachusetts Board of Arbitration and Conciliation Reports Unfavorable on the Demand of the Employes for More Pay. Boston. April 23.—According to the report of the state board of arbitration and conciliation presented to Gov. Bates yesterday the textile corporations in Lowell involved in the present strike of 17,000 operatives, with a single exception cannot afford to pay their help the 10 per cent. increase in wages demanded by organized labor. The opinion of the board is corroborated by a statement from a state statistician, based on the figures of an accountant employed, to make an examination of the financial condition of the seven mills in question. The exception is the Lawrence Manufacturing Co., the books of which, according to the report show that it is able to grant the advance demanded. After reviewing the demands that have been made since March, 1902, for increase of wages and the refusal by the operators to concede the increases, the report says: "The point at issue is whether the mills can afford the increase. The operatives assert that they can. The agents claim they cannot and will consent to an examination of their books by the board." The board shows that the cost of living in 1902 is 15.37 per cent. higher than in 1897, against the 25 per cent. claimed by the workingmen, and that the wages in cotton mills in Lowell have been raised 10 per cent. in the same period. The books of the Massachusetts mills show increases in wages since 1898, ranging from 14 to 23.3 per cent. The board does not find from examination of the lists of stockholders that the Lowell mills are controlled by a combination, as alleged by the employees, nor does it find that the selling agents control prices in such a way as to depress wages. The full amount of holdings of the selling agents does not show that their interest is sufficient to give them control. On the question of salaries paid to officials the board shows that out of every $100 received from goods made, $1.62 was paid in salaries in the Fall River cotton mills, $1.51 in New Bedford and $1.43 in Lowell. Inspection of the mills by the board itself and by an impartial expert, the report says, has shown that the Lowell corporations labor under a disadvantage, in comparison with those having modern plants. Lowell manufacturers have to meet southern competition on coarser goods and that of the best equipped modern mills in finer fabrics. BANDS OF SMUGGLERS. Their Methods are Exposed by a Young Man at Buffalo. Buffalo, N. Y., April 23.—The operations of a well organized gang of smugglers who have, it is alleged, brought hundreds of Chinamen into this country over Niagara river, were disclosed Wednesday by James Fox, 22 years old, while on the witness stand. Fox was placed under arrest while riding on a street car, with a "contraband" Chinaman. Upon the advice of his mother, Fox said he would make a clean breast of all he knew concerning the smugglers and testified that there were regularly organized firms in Canada, who made it a business to bring Chinamen across the Pacific to Vancouver, thence by rail to Toronto and finally across the border to the United States. Upon the testimony of Fox the federal authorities have arrested George E. Judson, of this city, who, it is alleged, is the leader of the smugglers. The hearing yesterday was merely preliminary to a trial when, it is said, evidence will become public showing the smuggling operations and the participation therein of persons doing business in New York, Chicago and Toronto. More Islands for Uncle Sam. Washington, April 23.—Official advises received at the navy department from the Philippines record the discovery of a number of valuable islands in the southern part of the archipelago which are not on any of the charts in the possession of the government. So far as known no foreign government as yet has laid claim to this territory, and to preclude the presentation of such claim Secretary Moody has taken steps to have the islands properly charted as the property of the United States, after first having every effort made to learn if any government had ground for claim to the new islands. Decreased Nearly 23,000,000 Tons. Wilkesbarre, Pa., April 23.—The annual report for 1902 of James E. Roderick, chief of the state bureau of mines, shows the production of anthracite coal last year was 36,911,551 tons. This is a decrease of 22,994,400 tons compared with the production of 1901, due to the strike. To mine this coal 300 lives were lost and 641 men were injured out of a total of 148,141 men employed. In 1901, working full time, 513 men were killed and 1,245 injured. A Fatal Wreck. Spring Valley, Wis., April 23.—One man was killed and three others were injured in a wreck on the Spring Valley branch of the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis & Omaha railroad yesterday. A mixed train was stalled on a hill two miles west of here, and two cars that had been left on the track while the rest of the train went over the ridge, broke away. They gained terrific speed and collided with another train coming up the grade. When the cars started most of the passengers and the train crew jumped and were only slightly injured. An Army Officer Suicides. An Army Officer Suicides. Washington, April 23.—Gen. Davis cabled the war department yesterday that Lieut. Col. Henry W. Sprole, First cavalry, committed suicide at Manila by shooting himself through the head. He was believed to be temporarily insane. Sprole was appointed to the military academy from New York in 1865. A Battle at Mequinez. Tangier, Morocco, April 23.—Tribesmen have attacked and plisiged Mequinez. Thirty-seven inhabitants of the town and 13 tribesmen were killed in the fighting.

Johnson, of Jefferson, O., was sentenced to three months at hard labor in the Cuyahoga county jail Monday by Judge Wing, of the United States district court, for having sent improper letters through the mails.

Both boy and woman wept, and the latter promised to reform. But Fiedler didn't believe her. The lovers of music especially turned out en masse on Wednesday evening to hear Flora Batson, who has been rightly named "Queen of Song," and Mr. Gerard Millar,- the Australian basso profundo, at St. John's church. Mr. Fred Hackley, as usual, did well. At St. Andrew's church to-morrow the services will be as follows: Early communion at 7:30; morning prayer and sermon, 10:30; evening prayer and sermon at 7:30. After the sermon the choir will render again (by request) the beautiful Easter cantata, "The Resurrection." The west wing of the Second A. M. E. Church East End Improvement society is making extensive preparations for a grand musicale to be held at Hudson Street church Thursday, June 4. T. J. Hicks, director; John Thompson, president; Martin Farmer, secretary; A. McSpadden, treasurer. The Gazette has received a copy of the thirty-fifth annual report of the principal of Hampton institute. The school has enrolled the present year the largest number of students in its history—1,180. Afro-Americans and Indians. Four hundred and fifty-one teachers from 15 different states, attained its summer institute. The group portrait in Sunday's papers of the graduating class of the East High school contained that of Dennis Fowler, who is to be one of the speakers at the coming commencement. Dennis is entitled to a great deal of credit for his perseverance in school matters and his parents and relatives have every reason to feel proud of him.

The Young Ladies' Loyalty, club rendered a very good program at Shiloh church last Thursday evening. All the participants did well. The allegory, "The Search for Happiness," was pronounced one of the best things given in years and most appropriate for a church. In the tableau the ladies presented a splendid appearance. There was a large attendance. The total amount raised will be announced in our next issue. Advantage was taken of the small attendance of the East End Colored Republican club on last Thursday evening by "little Willie" and a few of his friends who introduced and pushed through a motion to connect the club with The Central Republican club, miscalled League. There were only about a dozen members present, some refusing to vote, others voting under misapprehension and a few opposing the motion. It was, however, declared adopted. We understand that it was rescinded at the club's meeting held on this week Thursday evening. On Thursday evening the Fisk Jubilee Singers gave a concert at Bethlehem Congregational church (white), Broadway. A few weeks ago they sang at the Chamber of Commerce in the Y. M. C. A. course, and at other places. At each appearance they were greeted by large and enthusiastic audiences. Thursday evening was their last appearance in Cleveland. At Cincinnati last week they sang in the Y. M. C. A. course to over 3,000 people and were given an ovation. The present tour has added quite a large sum to the endowment fund of Fisk university. Rev. R. H. Dickerson, the new pastor of Cory chapel, preached last Sunday morning and evening. He has just returned from Louisville, Ky., his former charge, where he went last week to remove his family. They are now at home at No. 45 Forest street. For the past two weeks Rev. and Mrs. Dickerson have been stopping at Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Thomas'. The Epworth League gave a reception on Friday evening in honor of their new pastor and Rev. H. W. Simmons, P. E. A good program was rendered. All the ministers, the editor of The Gazette and some of our best local talent took part. Refreshments were served. Mr. Smith spoke on "The Press." Samuel Gompers, John Mitchell and every other prominent labor leader knows that the cause of organized labor is just as strong, and no stronger, 'as the public opinion which supports it. Upon this truth Mr. Conrad Mizer, of this city, has founded his plan—and a good one, too—for the prevention and cure of labor disputes. His article, "Voluntary Compulsory Arbitration for Preventing Strikes," published in the Chicago Public Policy of April 18, shows an intelligent diagnosis of the causes of labor troubles and the forces that can be relied upon to bring them to a settlement whenever they become destructive of the public welfare, and prescribes a remedy which will bring about a settlement without first entailing a loss of life and property. The article is the work of an honest and intelligent mind. That it will be effective is proven by the fact that no parties to a dispute have ever been able to maintain their position against the findings of an impartial and competent board of arbitrators. Mr. Mizer is entitled to great praise for his exceptionally strong article. Must Go Back to the Wines. Wilkesbarre, Pa., April 22.—The executive boards of the three anthracite districts of the United Mine Workers of America issued instructions yesterday that all mine workers now on strike or locked out return to work immediately, pending an adjustment of all differences by the board of conciliation provided for by the anthracite coat strike commission. District Presidents Nicholls, of Scranton; Detry, of Hazleton, and John Fahy, of Shamokin, were selected as the miners' representatives on the board of conciliation. The board is to consist of six members, three appointed by the operators and three by the miners. THE BAILEY CO. The Trading Center of the Masses 138-150 ONTARIO ST.

Cupidity and the desire for quick wealth have tempted many people, ignorant both as to pharmacy and to salve, to call them called hair tonics, which (on account of their low price) contain mineral poisons, the immediate effect of which cause the hair to grow quickly, but whose certain end is falling hair and a bald head.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. A great many women suffer with a form of indigestion or dyspepsia which does not seem to yield to ordinary medical treatment. While the symptoms seem to be similar to those of ordinary indigestion, yet the medicines universally prescribed do not seem to restore the patient's normal condition. Mrs. Pinkham claims that there is a kind of dyspepsia that is caused by derangement of the female organism, and which, while it causes disturbance similar to ordinary indigestion, cannot be relieved without a medicine which not only acts as a stomach tonic, but has peculiar uterine-tonic effects as well. Thousands of testimonial letters prove beyond question that nothing will relieve this distressing condition so surely as Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. It always works in harmony with the female system. Mrs. Pinkham advises sick women free. Address Lynn, Mass. ABSOLUTE SECURITY. Acrethood Very small and as easy to take as sugar.

The Climate Is Healthy-The Winters Are Plensant In Western Canada. Writing from Stirling, Alberta, to one of the agents representing the Canadian Government Free Homestead Lands, Mr. M. Pickrell, formerly of Beechwood, Kentucky, says of Western Canada: "In the first place we will say that the summer season is just lovely indeed. As to the winter, well we never experienced finer weather than we are now enjoying. We have just returned from Northern Alberta and will say that we found the weather to be very mild, the air dry, fresh and invigorating. Considering everything we can say that the winters here are most pleasant, healthy and enjoyable to what they are in the States. Here it gets cold and continues so till Spring—there are no disagreeable winds. In South Alberta it is some warmer—two to four inches of snow may fall and, in a few hours a Chinook wind come along, evaporating the entire snow, leaving terra-firma perfectly dry, in fact, we did not believe this part until we came and saw for ourselves and we now know what we herein write to be just as we write it. There has not been a day this winter that I could not work out doors. Farmers here are calculating on starting the plough the first of March. "As to farm wages, we would not advise a man to come here with the expectation of living by his days' work, but all who do want a home I advise to have nerve enough to get up and come for there never has been, and may never be again, such a grand opportunity for a man to get a home almost free. "As to the crops. I have been in the fields before harvest, saw the grass put up and the grain harvested, and I never saw such large yields. I saw oats near Edmonton over six feet tall that yielded 80 bushels per acre, and I talked to a farmer near St. Albert who had a field year before last that averaged 110 bushels per acre, and weighed 43 pounds to the bushel. All other crops would run in proportion—as to potatoes and vegetables, the turnout was enormous. I have such reports as the above from all sections that I have visited, and that has been every community between the Edmonton district and Raymond in the Lethbridge district. "As to stock raising, I would advise a man to locate in this place, or any place, in South Alberta, but for mixed farming, I would say go up farther north, say near Lacombe, Wetaskiwin or Edmonton, where it is not quite so dry and where there is some timber to be had. I will say that nowhere have I ever seen a better opportunity for a man, whether he has money or not, to obtain a home. Nowhere can be found a more productive soil, better water and a better governed country than Western Canada affords. Inducements to the homeseeker are unexcelled. I met two men near Ponoka on the G. & E. R. R., who borrowed the money to pay for their homestead and in four years those two men sold their farms—one for $2,500, the other for $3,000. I met a man near Wetaskiwin who landed here with 25 cents six years ago. He is now worth $8,000. The advantages for ranching are excellent, in fact I do not believe this section can be beat. Markets are good; as to living, a family can live as cheap here as they can in the States. The average yield of oats in this neighborhood, last year, was 70 bushels, per acre; wheat averaged 35, barley 40, and the beet crop was good. In consequence of the successful cultivation of the beet, a large beet sugar factory is being erected at Raymond, seven miles from here. "In conclusion, I will say that N. W. T. from Manitoba to a long distance north of Edmonton produces most wonderful crops. Lakes and rivers abound with fish, and game is plentiful. And that this is unquestionably the country for a man to come to if he desires to better his condition in life. I would advise the prospective settler to look over the Lethbridge, Lacombe, Wetaskiwin and Edmonton districts before locating. "I will locate in the Edmonton district next Fall and several families from the States will locate with me. In the meantime, I will receive my mail here and will be pleased to gi the interested all the information desired."

Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, President of Columbia University, Says College Sports Are Excessive. Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, president of Columbia university, has put himself on record in a review of 21 years of the career of that institution that he is "distinctly of the opinion that the undergraduate life was richer and more helpful in those days than it is now." Athletics, he believes, are overdone. The statements are made in a paper, "Columbia College: Old and New," in the Literary Monthly. After denoting the academic tone of the institution 21 years ago as "college spirit of the right sort," he says: "The proper proportions between work and play were better observed then than now, and athletics were genuine sports, not occupations. The literary societies had a stronger hold than now and the talk of students was more about books and reading and study than to-day. Discipline, too, has been relaxed, and the college student has largely lost the character building advantage of being in statu paddilleri. "He is much more in the public eye than is good for him. He rushes to the newspapers alike with his prizes and his injured feelings. His boyish achievements are lauded like the labors of a Hercules or the valorous deeds of an Achilles. What we need, it appears to me, in Columbia college, and in every other college, is a tightening of the lines in these respects. They were much tighter 21 years ago, and I liked the sum total of conditions then better than I do now." THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, APRIL 25, 1903. They Come From Many Parts of the World. Information of Recent Date Collected in Varlous Ways and Condensed for the Convenience of Our Busy Readers. Justice Scott in the supreme court at New York City sentenced Albert J.

The house committee on municipal corporations of the Illinois house of representatives has agreed upon a bill authorizing every city in the state to own, construct, purchase, mortgage and lease street railways.

They failed to see the street car in time to stop. The United States armored cruiser West Virginia was successfully launched at the Newport News shipbuilding yard in the presence of 25,000 people. A street pageant in which military companies from several Virginia cities, an artillery detachment from Fort Monroe and the officers, marines and sailors of the German cruiser Gazelle participated preceded the launching. Fire in the National casket factory at Rochester, N. Y., did $75,000 damage. While responding to the alarm a fire truck was overturned and two firemen were seriously injured. Six thousand boilermakers, 3,000 building material drivers, 2,000 truck drivers, 5,000 excavators, 2,000 coal wagon drivers and 1,000 ship and machinery riggers in New York City will strike, if their demands for higher wages are refused, May 1. Five thousand members of the various divisions of the Laborers' Union Protective society are also expected to strike, June 1, if their demands for increase in pay are not granted. Efforts are being made to avert a strike of 50,000 garment makers on May 1. All the inmates of the Indian institute at Brantford, Ont., which was burned the other night escaped without injury. A panic prevailed among the occupants during the fire. Loss $35,000, covered by insurance. President Roosevelt will be the guest of Butte's union labor union during a portion of the time he expects to spend there, May 27. He has accepted the invitation of the Silver Bow trades and labor assembly. In its official report of the distress in northern Sweden the central relief committee says the funds at the disposal of the committee are sufficient, provided the growth of the pasturage is not retarded. F. R. S. Donovan, who is preparing for the priesthood at Woodstock, Md., has made a gift to the Jesuit order of his fortune of $150,000. He had previously given large sums for charity, especially to mission work among the Maryland negroes. At Sharon, Pa., the bricklayers at the United coke and gas works of the United States Steel Corporation, who struck April 1, have returned to work. The company granted their demand for an eight-hour day at 55 cents an hour. The strike of the iron workers against the American Bridge Co. has been settled. It is understood that the agreement provides that the men shall return to work upon the conditions that prevailed before the strike was declared, and continue to work under those conditions until May 1. As a result of a series of encounters in Letcher county, Kentucky, the first being a fight between revenue officers and moonshiners, one man was killed and two men were wounded, one of whom probably will die. The dead man is United States Deputy Marshal James C. Asher. In a battle following an unsuccessful attempt to rob the First national bank of Wampum, Pa., one man was killed and another seriously wounded. The dead man was one of the burglars. The wounded man was Henry Willoughby, a baker, who surprised the burglars while at work. His injuries are not fatal. By the breaking of a chain in the Jenks shipyard at Port Huron, Mich., the head of a boiler, weighing more than a ton, fell and crushed out the life of Emery Wethy and injured Charles Strong so badly that his recovery is doubtful. Wethy's head was crushed to a pulp. Vast coal fields in central Illinois are to pass to the control of a gigantic corporation, with a capital of $80,000,000, and they will be operated in connection with the Hill system of railroads. James J. Hill, president of the Great Northern Railway Co., is said to have financed the deal and the Burlington, the Great Northern and the Northern Pacific will open the market for Illinois fuel in the northwest. Secretary Root has directed the court-martial of a number of army officers in Alaska, who have been charged with making use of commissary supplies for their individual profit. It appears that they have been purchasing supplies at cost and selling them at a great profit, something they could do because of the freight rates on goods shipped to Alaska. Manor Tucker, a St. Bernard dog, whose weight is 204 pounds, and who is said to be the largest dog in New Jersey, saved a 6-year-old boy from drowning in the deep pool of the Second river, between Bloomfield and Watessing, N. J. Oscar Hammerstein, of New York City, the theatrical man who invented the first cigar-making machine, has perfected a new one that, he claims, will reduce by nearly one-third the cost of making cigars.

The Central Trust Co., of New York City, has declared an extra dividend of 20 per cent. payable May 1, in addition to its regular quarterly dividend of 80 per cent. The company has been paying dividends at the rate of 60 per cent. since January, 1900. A movement has been inaugurated to re-establish military divisions in this country, with several departments included in each. It has received the endorsement of high army officers.

At Topeka, Kan., an important decision has been rendered by the district court denying an injunction against 56 fire insurance companies doing business in Kansas on the ground that they were violating the anti-trust act. The United States supreme court has refused to reverse the decision of the United States circuit court of appeals in the case of the Texas Pacific Railway Co. vs. Abe Behmer.

Pittsburg is to have a great university that will rival the big colleges and universities of the east and west. For its endowment, it is said, the millions of Andrew Carnegie and 20 other wealthy Pittsburgers are pledged. An island 125 feet long and 30 feet wide, seemingly fixed as solidly as a rock on the east shore of Lake Garfield, in Monterey, Mass., has floated three-quarters of a mile down the lake. Twenty-five years ago the island made a similar journey. This lake in the Berkshire hills has been a favorite fishing resort of ex-President Cleveland. At Cumberland, Md., a jury awarded Mrs. Isabel Whitehurst $150 damages against a firm of dentists. Mrs. Whitehurst sued for $3,000 damages. Mrs. Whitehurst had gold crowns put on her teeth by the dentists, for which she was to pay in instalments. The work proved unsatisfactory, and she made complaint to the firm. She testified that she was invited to occupy the chair by one of the dentists who, without warning, pulled out the teeth in question, saying he was taking back the gold that was not paid for Milton M. Fisher, well known in anti-slavery days and prominent in the Free Soil party, is dead at his home in Medway, Mass., aged 92. He was a delegate to the first meeting of the American Anti-Slavery society and from that time to the civil war was among the most active abolitionists. As a Free Soil party man he was nominated for United States senator in 1850, but was defeated. The large bridge of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy road over Black river at Trempealeau, Wis., burned, causing a loss of about $100,000.

It is officially announced by President Loree that the Baltimore & Ohio railroad management has authorized the ordering of 100 or 150 new locomotives to accommodate the increased transportation demands. An effort to settle the strike of the glove block cutters in Gloverville and Johnstown, N. Y., resulted in a disagreement. The manufacturers offered a general increase of 5 per cent. The cutters asked for an average increase of 30 per cent., but withdrew their demand to unionize the factories. FASTEN AGE MARKS. Sick Kidneys make people look older than they are; hasten the evening days of life; fasten the marks of premature old age. The world over Doan's Kidney Pills is the recognized Kidney Specific. COMMUNING WITH NATURE. Laura Was Not Saddened by the Beautiful Scenery—It Was a Bug. Close beside the sparkling brook, whose silvery waters danced merrily in the sunlight and rippled joyously over the golden sands, they sat in silence—George and Laura—drinking in the glorious beauty of the rustic scene and communing with one in one of her chosen shrines. Afar off in the west the sun seemed to linger on the rim of the horizon as if unwilling to shut out from his gaze the lovely landscape that glowed with a softened and even melancholy radiance in his departing beams, says Woman's Home Companion. A thrilling cry burst from the lips of the beautiful girl. "George! George!" she almost shrieked. "What is it, darling?" he asked, placing his arm tenderly around her waist. "Has the romantic, yet oppressive, loveliness of the scenery saddened your spirit—" "No, George!" she screamed, waving her hands wildly and making a frantic jab at the small of her back. "I think it's some kind of a bug!" "They Waited" and "Saw." Warren's Corners, N. Y., April 20th. "Wait and see—you're better now, of course, but the cure won't last." This was what the doctors said to Mr. A. B. Smith, of this place. These doctors had been treating him for years, and he got no better. They thought that nothing could permanently cure him. He says: "My kidneys seemed to be so large that there wasn't room for them, and at times it seemed as if ten thousand needles were running through them. I could not sleep on my left side for years, the pain was so great in that position I had to get up many times to urinate, and my urine was sometimes clear and white as spring water, and again it would be high colored and would stain my linen. The pain across my back was awful. I was ravenous hungry all the time. "After I had taken Dodd's Kidney Pills for four days my kidneys pained me so bad I could hardly sit down. On the morning of the fifth day I felt some better, and the improvement continued till I was completely cured. "As this was months ago, and I am still feeling splendid, I know that my cure was permanent and genuine." His Judgment.—"I've been told," said the amateur, "that I'm a good actor.

Whoever does not believe in immortality, let him turn his eye upon jokes. No joke has ever been known to die. Even the weakest from its very birth lives forever. Now and then a joke will work overtime, too consistently, and will have to go to the hospital of temporary oblivion for a rest. But it always returns to do business with a clean bill of health, and, semi-occasionally, a new tie, or a fresh collar. As a rule, however, it wears the same old celluloid neck-band and faded scarf, sponged off and benzined by the skillful hands of Time—N. O. Times-Democrat. Aching backs are eased. Hip, back, and loin pains overcome. Swelling of the limbs and dropsy signs vanish.

[An Interesting Letter Concerning Pe-ru-na.] MISS DELLA JANVEAU Miss Della Janvean, Globe Hotel, Ottawa, Ont., is from one of the oldest and best known French Canadian families in Canada. In a recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., of Columbus, Ohio, she says: "Last spring my blood seemed clogged up, my digestion poor, my head ached and I felt languid and tired all the time. My physician prescribed for me, but a friend advised me to try Peruna. I tried it and am pleased to state that I found it a wonderful cleanser and purifier of the system. In three weeks I was like a new woman, my appetite had increased, I felt buoyant, light and happy and without an ache or pain. Peruna is a reliable family medicine." Adia Brittain, of Sekitan, O., writes: "After using your wonderful Peruna three months I have had great relief. I had continual heaviness in my stomach, was bilious, and had fainting spells, but they all have left me since using Peruna."—Adia Brittain.
