THE GAZETTE. All communications should be addressed: HARRY C. SMITH. Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE. Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio 1894 to 1896. Member Ohio Legislature, 1896 to 1898. 1900 to 1902. ALLIED PRINTING TRADES COUNCIL CLEVELAND CLEVELAND. SATURDAY. OCT. 10. 1903. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. "The Souls of Black Folk," Prof. DuBois' book, is unquestionably the best publication anent the race, of recent months. It is really a fine thing and ought to be in the home of every loyal, intelligent and progressive Afro-American. By all means purchase a copy as soon as possible, if you have not already done so. M. A. McClurg & Co., publishers, Chicago, Ill. We are in receipt of a letter from Capt. Chas. Young confirming our statement relative to the "pretty little story" going the rounds of the press and having reference to him and some white soldiers who it is alleged, refused to salute him. One sentence from the captain's letter is as follows: "You know not a word of it could be true." Read his letter elsewhere in this paper. The story so industriously circulated by the American Press to the effect that an Afro-American was refused accommodations at a London, England, public house, and on taking his grievance to the court was told that "it was too bad but that it could not be helped;" and that several Afro-Americans in Berlin, Germany, have been wantonly attacked and in some cases severely beaten, all simply on account of color, is apt to be about three-fifths of a lie. The Associated Press liar is always a very busy man whenever anything can be circulated through the press of this country to the detriment of our people. Why did the "lily-white" republicans of the south, especially those responsible for Alabama's disenfranchisement act, want Ohio's "lily-white" "junior senator—Marcus Alonzo Hanna—to stand as a candidate for the republican nomination for the presidency against President Roosevelt? Answer this question and you will begin to understand why Senator Hanna is no friend of the Afro-American, and cannot be forced to speak out against disenfranchisement, mob violence and the "Jim Crow" car system of the south. The Afro-Americans of Ohio should give these things thought between now and the November election and so vote as to help make Hanna's reelection to the United States senate an impossibility. We say this first as an Afro-American and next as a lifelong republican. Under the McKinley administrations he was the father of the "lily-white" republican nonsense in the south. This was and is no secret, and it is about time the manly Afro-American voters of Ohio, those who are loyal to their people first and the republican party next, were taking cognizance of the fact and acting accordingly. There will be no tears shed by Afro-Americans over the virtual retirement of the late Adjutant General of the United States Army, Henry C. Corbin, who has been given command of the department of the East with headquarters at New York. Although Mr. Corbin was an Ohioan and for a time during the war of the rebellion was a major in command of colored troops, throughout his twenty years' service at the nation's capital as adjutant general and at times the practical head of the army, he has steadily and in a majority of instances successfully opposed the promotion of Afro-American soldiers to positions above the rank of a noncommissioned officer. This was repeatedly demonstrated during and since the Spanish-American war. For a long time Corbin has virtually been the head of the army and has made no end of trouble for his superior officers, particularly General Miles. In the recent reorganization of the army as a result of the creation of what is known as the general staff, Corbin hoped to be the first chief of this new executive department and was grievously disappointed over his failure to receive the appointment. We are correspondingly happy over his failure to get it. Samuel Coleridge Taylor, the great Afro-American musician — teacher, composer and director—the most popular during the last four or five years, if not the greatest, in all the British Empire, the author of the greatest of later-day cantatas, "Hiawatha" (practically three such compositions), and numerous other vocal and instrumental solos, duettes, trios, quartettes, choruses and cantatas, has achieved another success of international interest to the musical world and all peoples of color. His latest work, a cantata, "The Atonement," is "remarkable and should be monumental," says an eminent English musical critic in the Bristol (Eng.) Tipes and Mirror of Sept. 10, for a copy of which we are indebted to Mr. F. J. Loudin of Ravenna, O., who though ill with rheumatism for many months and away up in Edinburgh, Scotland, kindly remembered The Gazette as he has often done before but then as a rule when in good health. Mr. Loudin is proud (as we all are) of Coleridge Taylor's remarkable talent, success and wonderful career, and wants Afro-Americans generally to know of and appreciate them as well as the man. For this he is entitled to much praise. Hundreds of dollars of his own money for years has been freely spent in this way, "spreading good news" among our people, not only of one but of several continents. DOES NOT SLEEP FOREVER. I tremble for my country when I remember that God is just and that His justice does not sleep forever.— Jefferson. Thus spoke the immortal Jefferson in time far more peaceful and fraternal than now. The spirit of amity and good will went forth like an angel of mercy to gather into its warm embrace the children of the bondsmen and the free and the children of every race and tongue. Though the nation felt the weight of its humiliation and shame incident to the curse of human slavery, yet there was a feeling of sympathy and concord pervading the hearts of the people. The north earnestly desired the welfare of the south and the south felt a reciprocal relation owing to the mutual ties of a common government. But a mighty evil bore upon the bosom of the nation like an irrepressible nightmare. The ablest minds grappled with the evil as did the fathers at the time of the adoption of the federal constitution. Each year as the nation continued to grow and broaden a harassing cloud, first the size of the human hand appeared along our national horizon. It widened and deepened, until it assumed most threatening proportions. The accursed iniquity of slavery was the growing question which agitated the public mind. It was destined to reach a climax. In what way, the statesman found it impossible to determine. But they knew that some irrepressible circumstance must intervene, some conflict must come that would convulse the whole body politic. It would be a conflict between truth and error, between mind and physical force, which would determine the future of the country. Like a sage patiently hoping for the better, our Jefferson was led to exclaim "I tremble for my country when I remember that God is just and that His justice does not sleep forever." This wonderful declaration of a wonderful man is no less significant today. It bears strikingly upon our present situation and offers food for thoughtful and serious reflection. The masses then were always ready to turn their attention to the demands of the situation and to alleviate and amend conditions if possible. Not so today. The people almost to a man and with little exception are engrossed in affairs promote of their own self interest and self aggrandizement. The masses for wealth and gain have turned the brain to money getting and men seem little aware as to the interior workings now bearing upon the national life. But one has only to watch the tendency of the American press and very especially that portion which is given to agitation and we find today the entire nation convulsed by intestine commotion and internal feuds. Jefferson was a patriot and a statesman and felt no small concern for a country which promised so much of universal good to the world. Remembering the wisdom and justice of the Almighty, the sage of Monticello trembled. He trembled and quailed in the presence of a solemn truth that his country gave signs of coming disaster. Though remote there was a mighty evil, reaching a bloody climax. It came and the result was a fierce and cruel conflict. The same feeling of discord is rife today, and it is not without its threatenings. Americans might well be warned, they might well heed the admonition of the patriot statesman. But we fear that the worst shall come when it shall be altogether too late. It is not only possible. It is probable. Should such a day of evil come again upon this republic, it will be far more appalling than anything known in the annals of our country. God, forbid that our eyes shall look upon a picture so much to be deplored. A SWELL SOCIAL FUNCTION. Celebrated First Marriage Anniversary—Rev.

Well-Grounded Fear. Leading Lady—Why didn't you put my flowers on the stage? Stage Manager—I was afraid they might be frost-bitten—Detroit Free Press. THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 10. 1903. in adding colour to the glowing tonal picture. At the opening of the prelude, which is of a rather sombre nature, there is a lovely melody. Then there are changes of tempo, rate of movement, and rhythm, and varying orchestra coloring, which makes the prelude exceedingly attractive. An imposing march theme and a basso ostinato are features which arrest attention. The "Gethsemane" division has a short and pleasing orchestral opening; the writing for the choir is suave, and the accompaniment graphic and varied. The bass solo, "Father! the last dread hour," is impressive and impassioned, and the accompaniment is such as to emphasize the sentiments; there is a recurring figure suggestive of the "Shadow of the Cross;" and the ending, "Forsake me not in my agony," is intensely appealing. The chorus "Lo! through the gathering gloom" is a graphic piece of writing, every phase of the narrative related by the body of voices being emphasized by orchestral devices. "Could ye not watch one hour" is a soothing solo, and is in sharp contrast with the succeeding chorus, which is descriptive of the approach of the Roman soldiers. The opening is electric; the murmur of voices, the sound of footsteps, the oncoming of the excited crowd are depicted with a great cleverness. Then the clamour of the populace, as they call, "Away with Him," forms a fitting subject for a fine climax, the effect of which is very moving. The music is never long in any key; discords are freely used and the brass wind is extensively employed. A very suave solo, with beautiful melody, and touching in character—"Oh, little flock"—breaks in upon the tumult. Features of the Prayer of the Holy Women and Apostles—a choral for eight-part chorus—are a recurring phrase given to the men's voices, the free use of discords, and the sharp contrasts of light and shade. A very pompous movement for orchestra introduces the fourth division of the work, in which the clamour of the rabble reaches its height, and is depicted with a masterly hand. The tenor solos are very effective, and the dream of Pilate's wife, as related by Madame Albani, is exceedingly soothing and reposeful. "Breath of my life," for tenor, contains some lovely bits of melody and much picturesque orchestration; and the appeal to the mighty gods of ancient Rome by Pilate and his wife, in a duet, is very fine. Then the rage of the people rises to frenzy, which again is portrayed in realistic fashion, a startling contrast being secured by the pianissimo setting of the sentence. "His blood be upon us and our children." A chorus illustrative of the journey to Calvary is a clever conception. A very beautiful and sombre movement for band introduces the Calvary scene, and is among the most graphic in the work, the mocking of the jeering crowd being quite startling. The solos and the trio for the three Marys are quite moving in their tenderness. The darkness, the earthquake, and the passing of the spirit of Christ are graphically set forth, and the work ends with a magnificent final chorus, enriched by exquisite short interludes given to the three Marys. Such is the work, which is remarkable, and should be monumental. REV. C. D. WHITE. The Gazette takes pleasure in presenting to its readers the above excellent portrait of Rev. C. D. White, B. D., pastor Paul's A. M. E. church, Lima, O., and a third successive time Supreme Prelate, K. of P., (the only Ohioan a supreme officer), who is in Cleveland this week in attendance upon the annual conference of his church. Rev. White was born Feb. 5, 1854, near Wren, Van Wert county, O.; educated in the common schools at home, and at Wilberforce university from 1874 to 1875. For three years he was a public school teacher in this state and at Columbus, O., Sept. 1880, joined the A. M. E. conference, being active in the ministry ever since—23 years. For years Rev. White has been a staunch friend of the Gazette, availing himself of every opportunity to assist it. On the last Sunday in August of this year occurred an event long to be remembered by him and the members of his church at Lima. The mortgage indebtedness on it was wiped out and the paper burned with appropriate ceremonies. Rev. Grafton Graham, aged 86, who organized the church in 1858, was a prominent figure in the services. Addresses were also delivered by other ministers and Rev. R. H. Clark, who purchased the old Presbyterian church of Lima and replaced it for the use of the congregation. The same edifice is still in use. To Rev. White largely belongs the honor and credit of relieving his church of a debt that has existed since 1894. The property the church now owns cost originally $1,500. Its present value is about $10,000. Our good friend, Rev. White, has indeed cause to be thankful and his members should be proud of him. White Presbyterians Abreast of the Times St. Louis, Mo.—The "color question" which has presented itself numerous times in the last thirty years to the Presbyterian church of the United States of America, sometimes called the "Northern" Presbyterian church, was settled by the action the 30th ult., at the Second Presbyterian church of the committee on territorial limits of presbyteries appointed by the last general assembly. By this action the 15,000 Afro-American members of the church will not be set apart as a separate denomination, nor will the church take part in any class legislation—that is to say, the word "Negro" will not be used as a qualification of any of the church laws or regulations. The committee will make its report to the general assembly in Buffalo next May. TAKEN FROM LIFE: BEFORE AND AFTER TREATMENT. ORIGINAL OZONIZED OX MARROW (Copyrighted.)

SHEA, M. To 761 Fulton Street, Brooklyn. DR. ELLARSON. and TRANCE CLARIVOYANT, can do all for you that Dr. Shea did, and has even still greater power. Gives the names of dead and living friends, tells whom and when you will marry. Can be consulted all the time if life. Dr. ELARSON will not for whom your price fatter you, but will give you facts without nonsense. Will tell you of absent friends, journeys, business, lawsuits, health or anything you wish to know about. Asks no questions, don't ask you to write the name, don't try to pump you in any way but tells you right off. Is thoroughly endorsed by leading Spiritualists everywhere; has credentials no one else can show. Can give you information of witnesses with colored patrons. Thirteenth years practice in Brooklyn and New York will prove to you that Dr. Ellarson can give you satisfaction as no one else can. Can tell you what business is best for you and where. Can tell you how to win speedy marriage with one you love. How to be successful in all your doings; successes when all others fail.

Through a perfect knowledge of chemistry can impart to you a secret that will overcome your enemies and win you friends. In love affairs never fails. Has the secret at winning the affections of the opposite sex. Is the secret of spiritualism that there are so many who claim powers they do not possess. Beware of such and those who copy parts of my advertisement. They have neither gifts, credentials, nor references. Surely the colored people are not so wanting in sense as to throw their time and money away on such. DR. ELLARSON understands thoroughly the diseases, spells and influences the race is subservient to and always has been a true friend to the colorless and always had a large patronage from them. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING: New York, Nov. 14, 1902—This is to certify that I was out of work, out of money, and discouraged. I had no luck in anything I undertook. What to do I did not know. A friend advised me to go and see Dr. Shea. I went, but found that Dr. Shea was dead; but I found in Dr. Shea's place a good, kind friend, the best friend. That friend was Dr. Ellarson, who took me to his little brother. Through Dr. Ellarson I got a position that very week. I had been to others. They took my money and did me no good. I bless the day I first met Dr. Ellarson. I would advise all in bad luck, sick or in trouble to or write to 651 Fulton street to Dr. Ellarson at once. I had pneumonia. By Dr. Ellarson wonderful powers I was cured all right in three days. If any one wants to know any more come to New York, Req. Mather. 1855 Third avenue, New York, Req. Mather. New York. March 24, 1902.—This is to certify that my husband had gone away and been away for a long time. I knew not where he was. I mourned for him night and day. I gave him up as dead, but hearing of the wonderful things I doing, I resolved to consult him. I found Dr. Shaw, who was a doctor, and was in his place, who told me my husband was alive and well and would come home in a few weeks. To my joy all of it came true. I thank God there is one in our midst who can help people so much, when they are in some trouble and as I was. S. Lenhart, 1790 Third avenue. Brooklyn, May 3, 1902.—I went to Dr. Ellarson when I was so sick I thought I would die. Dr. Ellarson cured me and made me feel like a new person. I am thankful to the good spirit that led me there and to God for pointing me to such a good friend to give me such relief. Mary E. Harrison, 193 Myrtle avenue, Brooklyn, Newark, Sept. 14, 1902.—I wish to state that I was sick with a mysterious disease and I was trouble and distress for a long time. No one could understand my case. I went to many doctors, but none seemed to know what was the matter. None would do me any good. Hearing of the wonderful illness done by Dr. Shea, the last few years, I thought I would call to see him myself. I found Dr. Shea was dead and gone, but I found in his old roms, 651 Fulton street, Dr. Ellarson, most kind and sympathetic physician of wonderful insight and power, who in a short time cured me sound and well. I can truly and heartily distress Dr. Ellarson to all those in sickness or distress in any kind. Moses Jones, 13 Camp street, Newark. Orange, N. J. Feb. 1, 1903.—My Dear Friend Dr. Elliason. Your welcome letter; safely to hand and I hasten to answer the same. I can truly say your medicines are all the good in the world, and you are welcome to use my name in the paper as I want one to know that you have helped me so much. I cannot tell you how grateful I am and how much I thank you. I was lying helpless in bed and no one seemed to help me; until my brother got something when brought me right up and an able to go to work again. I bless God that I heard about you. From your true friend, Orange, N. J. New York, Feb. 5, 1902....Dea Dr. Ellison: I will pen you these few lines to let you know how much your treatment has done for me. I am without ache or pain, feeling unease. Feel how long I year old girl. When I think of how long I lasted I came to you. I feel I can never thank you though for your kindness and for what you have done for me in bringing back my health. I remain friends truly. Sarah E.

Diamonds of the purest white and most dazzling brilliancy will soon be within the reach of the smallest wage-earner, if F. W. Fuch's X-ray process of changing the color of gems proves to be all that experiments indicate. Mr. Fuchs, who is a Chicago man, hopes that with the perfection of his process he will be able to bleach poor yellow stones to a clear white. Mr. Fuchs has been laboring for five years, and he is now able to announce that he can change a diamond to any other color desired In his experiments, during which he has used $1,000 worth of stones, he has changed a one and one-half carat diamond to a brilliant green, with added luster. He also produced a stone of a rich brown, similar to the $25,000 gem in King Edward's crown, and further changed a six-carat white stone to black. The coloration is permanent, if desired, though Mr. Fuchs can return the stone to its original color. Topazes, pearls and other gems submit readily to the treatment, a yellow topaz having been changed to a deep green by the process. The method consists in directing the X-rays through the substances from which the color is to be obtained before the rays touch and penetrate the diamond. Mr. Fuchs declares that it is a known fact that a diamond has large pores, and that it is partially through these that the particles are able to pass into the body of the stone. The inventor says that he will keep part of the process secret until he has further perfected it. KANGAROO WALK. Mrs. Anna Ward Foster Says That It Imperlis Health. The "kangaroo walk," which of late has been considered the proper thing among the young ladies of the "smart set," received a deathblow at the dressmakers' convention the other afternoon. Mrs. Anna Ward Foster said it is extremely dangerous to health, as "it throws the body forward until it rests almost entirely upon the delicate organs, which are injured by the strain." In the course of her talk Mrs. Foster laid down three canons of feminine grace. They are ease, precision and harmony. "But do not think that the more you have of either or all of these qualities the better," said the speaker. "Too much ease means vulgarity, too much precision means stiffness, and too much harmony affection." Mosquitoes Like X-Rays. Dr. Frank Irving, chief of the X-ray department of the Newark City hospital, has exploded the story alleged to have been circulated by a local physician to the effect that the X-ray would slaughter mosquitoes and other insects, and as a result of which Dr. Irving has received a number of letters asking for information. The X-ray, the doctor says, has a tendency to make the insects sprightl and more inclined to bite. An Interesting Exhibit.

ALL TIRED OUT. 1 The weary, worn-out, all-tired feelings come to everybody who taxes the kidneys. When the kidneys are over-worked they fail to perform the duties nature has provided for them to do. When the kidneys fail dangerous diseases quickly follow. Urinary disorders, diabetes, dropsy, rheumatism, Bright's disease. Doan's Kidney Pills cure all kidney and bladder ills. Read the following case: Veteran Joshua Heller, 706 South Walnut street, Urbana, Ill.. says: "In the fall of 1899 after getting Doan's Kidney Pills at Cunningham Bros.' drug store in Champaign and taking a course of the treatment I told the readers of this paper that they had relieved me of kidney trouble, disposed of a lame back with pain across my loins and beneath the shoulder blades. During the interval which has elapsed I have had occasion to resort to Doan's Kidney Pills when I noticed warnings of an attack. On each and every occasion the results obtained were just as satisfactory as when the pills were first brought to my notice. I just as emphatically indorse the preparation today as I did over two years ago." A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mr. Heller will be mailed on application to any part of the United States. Medical advice free—strictly confidential.

Langley's Flying Machine Fell Into Potomac River. Prof. Manley Escaped with a Duckling -At No Time was There Any Semblance of Flight-Floats Attached to Machine Prevented Its Sinking. Widewater, Va., Oct. 8.—The 60 foot steel-built flying machine, the cumax of years of exhaustive study in the efforts of Prof. Samuel F. Langley, secretary of the Smithsonian Institution, to solve the problem of mechanical flight in mid air, was launched Wednesday and the experiment, carefully planned and delayed for months, proved a complete failure. The immense airship sped rapidly along its 70-foot track, was carried by its own momentum for 100 yards and then fell gradually into the Potomac river, whence it emerged a total wreck. Prof. Charles M. Manley, who has been Prof. Langley's chief assistant in the work preliminary to the attempted flight, made the ascent in the aerodrome and escaped with a ducking. At no time was there any semblance of flight, the initial momentum, the lightness of the machine and sustaining surface of the wings furnishing the conditions which account for the 100 yard transit of the air bird from its 60-foot elevation. An official statement made after the test admitted that the experiment was unsuccessful, but asserted confidence in the ultimate success of the invention. The launching took place at 12:15 o'clock from the superstructure of the house boat moored in the Potomac river two miles from this place. Fifteen minutes before that everything was cleared for action. Prof. Manley was clad in a suit of white duck trousers and cork-lined jacket. Secretary Langley, who has visited the scene of the test but infrequently since the house boat carrying his device and his assistants was taken to Widewater, did not witness the failure of his machine, but remained in Washington where he awaited the result. When all was ready Prof. Manley took his place in the navigator's car which was situated close to the gasoline motor. This motor was well below the principal surface of the machine. It weighed 200 pounds and was designed to generate approximately 27 horsepower. Long rods connected it with the propellors, whose blades were about three feet long. The framework of Prof. Manley's car was covered with canvas, Prof. Manley started the motor, which worked well, the revolutions reaching 1,200 a minute. The big machine moved easily along the 70-foot track in the launching apparatus, and took the air fairly well. A five-mile breeze was blowing and for a moment the machine stood up well, but its failure was immediately apparent. It turned gradually downward. The declination was so positive that Prof. Manley saw at a glance that but few movements of the second hand of the stop watch he wore on his left knee would be recorded before both he and the scientific ship would be floundering in the Potomac. Just before the machine struck the water he shut off his motor, which had worked amiably at the outset. The machine disappeared beneath the waves, but only momentarily. The five conical shaped floats which had been distributed about the machine to avert its sinking performed their functions well and the bridges of the machine almost immediately reappeared above the water. It was a moment of anxiety for the safety of the navigator, but the fears were instantly relieved as his head emerged above the surface. He had sustained no injury. His face reflected his disappointment at the result. He climbed into a rowboat which had been kept close at hand and was conveyed to the deck of the tug Bartholdi. MORGAN AND SCHWAB. They Came First in the Sale of Shipbuilding Company's Stock. New York, Oct. 8.—One of the most interesting statement in connection with the formation of the ill-fated United States Shipbuilding Co., told by D. Leroy Dresser in legal proceedings yesterday was that after a pool of 200,000 preferred and 250,000 common stock had been placed in the hands of Harris Gates & Co., it was agreed that none of this stock should be marketed until 25,000 preferred and 25,000 common, owned by J. P. Morgan & Co., and 75,000 shares of each kind, owned by C. M. Schwab, had been first sold. Mr. Dresser told also of his original agreement, as president of the Trust Company of the Republic, to obtain the underwriting of $3,000,000 of United States Shipbuilding Co. stock; how this was increased to $4,750,000 by the failure of the French subscribers to pay up; how, Mr. Schwab came to offer his Bethlehem works to the shipbuilding company and how J. P. Morgan & Co. then came into the transaction. Declared War on Union Tailors. Chicago, Oct. 8.—The Merchant Tailors' Protective association, composed of manufacturing tailors of the country, has declared war on the Journeymen Tailors' Union of America and will hereafter refuse to deal with union journeymen tailors as such. Agreements covering wages and hours are to be made with the individual tailors, who are graded and paid according to merit, ability and skill. The Tailors' union has a membership of about 20,000. A Blessing in Disgrace. Seattle, Wash., Oct. 8.—The high water in Lake Union yesterday burst through the dam's retaining walls at the side of the first gates at the head of the government canal. The gates are still standing, but the flood has eaten a big channel around the lock. The flood of water is doing more to finish and deepen the canal than the government could do in five years. There is no prospect of damage to other than government property beyond the possible shutdown of Lake Union mills until new dams can be built at the head of the canal Contests the Will. South Bend, Ind., Oct. 8.—Mrs. Martin V. Beager, widow of the millionaire manufacturer who left $12\frac{1}{4}$ per cent of his estate to De Pauw University, and 5 per cent to the New York Chautauqua, filed papers yesterday contesting the will and claiming her husband was of unsound mind. Shark Hammed the Dahlgren. New York, Oct. 8.—The submarine torpedo boat Shark during a trial at Greenport, L.

Like other men of prominence, Admiral Dewey often comes across the irresponsible party, who always affects to be on terms of intimacy with notable persons. Courteous and genial to a degree, the admiral has proound dislike for this sort of naisance, and does not hesitate to show the feeling. Not long ago, while out walking in Washington, he was accosted by an effusive stranger, who grasped his hand and said: "George, I'll bet you don't know me." The admiral looked his displeasure as he answered, grimly: "You win," and walked on.—Detroit Free Press. Easy to Get. Pierpont, O., Oct. 5th.—Remarkable indeed is the experience of Mr. A. S. Turner, a man now over seventy-one years of age, and whose home is here. For many years this old gentleman had suffered with a very unpleasant form of kidney Trouble, a kind that very often bothers aged people. He would have to get up four or five times every night, and this very tiresome disease was fast wearing him out. At last after having almost made up his mind that he would never be able to get relief, he stumbled over a medicine which relieved him almost immediately, and has cured him permanently. It is so very easy to get and so simple that Mr. Turner thinks everyone should know it. Every dealer in the country has it, and all you have to do is to ask for Dodd's Kidney Pills. Mr. Turner says:— "I can heartily and honestly recommend Dodd's Kidney Pills, for they cured me. Several others in the family have used them, too, and always with the best results. I think they have no equal." "Tried to skin me, that scribbler did!" "What did he want?" "Wanted to get out book jointly, he to write the book and I to write the advertisements. I turned him down. I wasn't going to do all the literary work!"--Baltimore News. A Good Thing.

The more these facts are impressed upon the average person, the more certain he or she is to have a desire to travel.
