Subscribers are requested to remit by post-office money order or registered letter Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio, the second-class matter. All communications should be addressed: HARRY C. SMITH, Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE, Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio Member Ohio Legislature, {1894 to 1896. 1896 to 1898. 1900 to 1902. 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 National Afro-American council will have a small attendance, if this year's meeting is held in St. Louis as contemplated. Change the meeting place! The Gazette is indebted to Senator J. B. Foraker for a splendid extra large wall map of the United States and its possessions of Cuba, etc. Just what we wanted, Senator. Many thanks. ALMOST LYNCHED. In the city of Memphis, Tenn., a few days ago, a young "white" girl was seen to enter an apartment which was in charge of an Afro-American. It was thought that the girl was making her stay too long. A couple of policemen were called to investigate matters. A crowd followed, excitement became intense, and the mob cried "lynch the Negro." Officers of the law found it difficult to quell a growing bad feeling. The man and woman were placed in jail. The wildest rumors were afloat for several days, for the officials were non-plused. Bad blood was brewing. "The girl was abducted," and in a few days it became known that she supposed the prisoner was "a colored man," and so he was. The prisoner was finally released upon the ground that he supposed the young woman was "a colored girl," and so she was. The excitement died out. A calm settled upon the people and the inquiry is going around, "Who is who and which is which?" THE PARTY THAT SHOULD WIN. John Sharp Williams, committee man to draft the democratic platform, had all the advantage in waiting for republican matter in order to formulate democratic "thunder." Yet with all his worded phases and ambiguities, Mr. Williams found it hard, very hard, to base a tangible argument or refute the position taken by the republican party. The republicanism stands for self-evident truths, for principles fixed upon the eternal law of right. Imperfection is inherent in all things human, but the party which in the exercise of its political functions approximates to things in keeping with the brotherhood of man is the party which deserves to win. American democracy offers no pledge in the interest of vital principles. It regards not the claims of human equality before the law. It ignores the fundamental idea of equal protection to every American citizen. In short, it repudiates the sublime doctrine as contained in the amendments to our national constitution and thus inculcates an idea that is at once subversive of the theory and practice of a government to be preserved and perpetuated forever. Democracy is evasive, from the fact that it dares not commit itself to those issues which so much concern the life and perpetuity of the nation. It despises the citizenship of the black man, it winks at the villainous torturings of Afro-Americans and has become the apologist of crimes the worst known to civilized man. It condones every sin and outrage perpetuated against inoffensive and helpless Afro-Americans. In many parts of the south the most vicious assaults are made upon harmless Negroes who are merely passing to their daily labor; yet southern democracy regard these acts only in jeers and ridicule. These are the things which should concern all Americans and which seem only to concern republicans, for intelligent and true republicans everywhere recognize that violence and crimes upon the citizen are the shame of the century and should and must be quelled, that the government shall live. But that it shall live depends mainly upon the loyal element of the country. No traitorous bands have ever yet conserved the growth and power of a republic. No party discriminating against the poor and the weak can do other than subvert the power of governments. Deterioration and disintegration are the best fruits of that party's triumph. Only can any party best subserve the interests of free government that concerns itself for the rights and liberties of the people. The republican party is committed to such a mission. It realizes its responsibility in its administration of public duties and can surrender nothing of right through bribe or compromise. In the present campaign which to-day engrosses public attention, Americans will determine their action upon the merits of the issues involved. Already through a long series of years the fruits of "glorious" achievements have come to the party of freedom. It cannot afford to subordinate the vast interests of the country and the broad principles of equal justice to the masses, to the whims and prejudices of anarchy and misrule. The intelligence of youth and the wisdom of age will land again the ship of state beyond the moorings of uncertain destiny. Democratic Nominee for the Georgia State Senate Arrested on the Charge. Savannah, Ga.—Charged with holding Negroes in a state of peonage, into which they were thrown by the collusion or connivance of the state court officials, John E. Foy, of Effingham county, democratic nominee for the state senate, was brought here on the 5th and lodged in jail by the federal authorities. J. H. Beach, of Egypt, Ga., and Henry Jackson, a Negro, were also arrested and brought to Savannah on warrants charging them with peonage. Judge Frank Tarver, of the county court of Effingham, was subpoenaed as a witness. Foy waived a preliminary hearing and gave bonds. The case grows out of the conviction in Effingham of Negroes who were employed to work for the Foy Manufacturing Co. and tried before Judge Tarver on a charge of misdemeanor and sentenced to pay a fine or serve six months at hard labor. The trial is alleged to have been held in a stockade at the Foy company's works, where the Negroes were put at the "hard labor" for which the sentence called. The Negroes in question are in jail here. Habeas corpus proceedings will be taken to determine whether they shall be released or sent to the chain gang. GOT "FIRED." White Trainmen in Virginia Discharged for Refusing to Handle Mail Made Up by Afro-American Route Agent. Richmond, Va.—The initial trip of an Afro-American railway postal clerk on the branch line of the Southern Railway, between Belfield and Claremont recently aroused prejudiced white people along the line. There was grumbling among some of the trainmen from the start because he was on board, where only white men had worked before. Something terrible, eh? When the train reached Claremont, although a white clerk was on the car coaching the Afro-American, the trainmen refused to receive the mail, notwithstanding the fact that the railroad is under contract to deliver it at the post office of that town. The postal authorities were communicated with, and telegrams passed between them and railroad headquarters. Meantime the train was delayed more than an hour, and as a final result one of the train crew, under special orders from the superintendent of the road, delivered the mail. The prejudiced trainmen were discharged for disobedience of orders. Chaplain Allensworth's Case. Washington, D. C.—Rev. Allen Allensworth, a regular army chaplain, will not be placed on the retired list, as desired. He is sixty-two years old, and may be retired on that account. He also asked that he be considered incapacitated for duty and retired for disability. He was recently promoted to the grade of major, and by the recent discovery of his service, as an enlisted man of the navy he becomes eligible to further promotion to the grade of lieutenant colonel. It is the policy of this administration not to advance any chaplain above a major, and Chaplain Allensworth's eligibility to additional promotion has operated to the denial of his request for retirement under the circumstances. He is an excellent officer and one of the best chaplains in the army, but it was considered that even his fine record did not justify the unusual favor which he would obtain by virtue of retirement at this time. Tell Gov. "Springfield" Herrick! Bakersfield, Cal.—James Cowan, who was convicted of manslaughter for helping in the killing of the Afro-American, James Cummings, who was taken from jail at Mojave and shot by a mob some months ago, was sentenced to eight years by Superior Judge Mabon. The jury, in finding Cowan guilty, recommended him to the mercy of the court, and Judge Mabon said if it had not been for that recommendation he would have imposed the extreme penalty. He expressed the opinion that the jury had no right to make such recommendation. This was the terrible lynching that took place last summer. Here is Your Chance.

Editor Gazette, Dear Sir:—I am desirous of obtaining information as to the whereabouts of my father, Derusia Ackley, commonly called "Dute", whom I have not seen since childhood. I heard that he was in Cleveland and had lost all effects from a fire about a year ago. Knowing your newsy paper catches the eye of many persons, I thought an advertisement to that effect might reach him. Mrs. Ida A. Thomas, 2501 Wabash avenue, Chicago, Ill. A Gratuitous Insult. The use of the word "negress" for Negro woman, is not only a gratuitous insult to a race whose history in the past and experience in the present call for the sympathy and kind consideration of all who are truly chivalrous, but it is such an abuse of language that it should shame even the unchivalrous out of using it.

COLLISION AT GRADE CROSSING A TROLLEY TRAIN RAN INTO AN EXPRESS TRAIN. Four People Killed and 24 Injured at Chicago — Brakes on Trolley Train Refused to Chicago, Aug. 18.—Four people were killed, another fatally hurt and 23 severely injured in a collision late Wednesday afternoon between an express train on the Chicago Great Western railroad and a train of three trolley cars bound for the Hawthorne race track. The accident occurred at the crossing of Forty-eighth avenue and the Chicago Great Western tracks. The train was coming into the city and, according to some witnesses of the accident, was running at a high rate of speed. Others and the train crew declare that it was not going over 20 miles an hour. The trolley train, which was made up of a motor car and two trailers, in charge of Conductor W. H. Condon and Motorman Michael Ryan, approached the crossing at a rapid rate, just as the train came around a sharp curve west of the crossing. Ryan put on the brakes with all his strength, in the effort to stop his car, but the brakes refused to work, and with undiminished speed the motor car ran up on the tracks at the same time that the locomotive came up. The car struck the train just between the engine and the tender. The motor car was torn to splinters and the car immediately behind it was knocked over, smashed nearly to pieces and dragged along the track for 100 feet. The third car was not dragged from the tracks, and but for the fact that the couplings between it and the second trailer broke, the list of injured would probably be much larger, as all of the cars were filled with passengers. The motorman remained at his post to the last and was fatally hurt, his skull being fractured. To people who came to aid him while he lay on the ground, he said: "The brakes would not work. That was what caused it. When I saw that they would not work, I reversed the current. Now get aside and be quiet and I will be all right." All the members of the Chicago Great Western train crew and the conductors of the trolley cars were arrested pending the inquiry of the coroner. DAVIS IS NOTIFIED. Democratic Nominee for Vice President Is Told of the Action of the St. Louis Convention. White Sulphur Springs, W. Va., Aug. 18.—Henry Gassaway Davis was formally notified yesterday that he is the nominee of the democratic party for vice president of the United States. Mr. Davis accepted the nomination in a brief speech reviewing the political situation, echoing the sentiments of Judge Parker on the money question and expressing the determination to be successful in the campaign. Representative John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, chairman of the notification committee of the St. Louis convention, delivered the notification address. The ceremonies were held on the lawn of the White Sulphur Springs hotel, which affords a natural amphitheater, the ground sloping up from the speaker's stand on all sides and sheltered by huge spreading oaks. Hundreds of enthusiastic democrats had assembled from the Virginias and bordering states, and heavy train loads brought others from a distance. Sturdy mountainers came on horseback, on foot and in wagons with their families. The ceremonies were marked with the utmost simplicity. The famous Stonewall Brigade band, of Staunton, Va., organized by Gen. Jackson, played stirring airs. A pretty incident occurred at the conclusion of the ceremonies, when 17 ladies from Atlanta, Ga., all bearing the Georgia state flag, came forward to congratulate the candidate. Rode in "Pullmans" in the South. Mobile, Ala.—Considerable manufactured excitement was created at the depot here Saturday over the fact that six Afro-Americans secured berths in Pullmans and refused to vacate. The tickets were purchased by a white man whom they deputized to do so. Under the law the Pullman people have no alternative, but must carry them. The prejudiced white passengers left the car. Poor things! The "trick" is an old one but new to the railroad officials here because they are "asleep" like most of the rest of the white south. Notice to Correspondents.

For a democrat to have fits over the republicans oppressing the Filipinos is the most ridiculous proposition ever advocated, especially when the democrat is at the self same time boring cork screws into the bodies of Negro women and tearing out great chunks of quivering flesh, because the woman fled with her husband only accused of crime from an army of savages whom she knew would take her husband's life at sight. —Seattle (Wash.) Republican. H. "Aristides" Taylor added another "star" to his, "crown of glory" last Tuesday morning by rushing into Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Gardner's burning house on Sterling avenue, extinguishing a fire in a room and rescuing her and their two little daughters from flames. So he says. All who will contribute toward a gold medal may hand what they wish to give to Walter L. Brown—if they have the "courage," whispers "Aris." A Training Ship Is Launched. Boston, Aug. 18.—The new United States steel sailing ship Cumberland, which was built by the government at the Charlestown navy yard as a training vessel, was successfully launched yesterday in the presence of many distinguished people. VANCE, A HERO. An Afro-American Porter Saves Many Lives-An Echo of the Colorado Disaster. The following dispatch bearing on the Colorado disaster is self explanatory: W, Vance, porter on the forward sleeper, Wyuta, was one of the heroes of the disaster. To him and his nerve and bravery the people on that car owe their lives. He was standing near the front end of the car when the crash came, and with a rare presence of mind rushed to the hand brake on the car and began tightening the brakes on the wheels. His car was slipping forward from the momentum and from the terrible drag of the forward cars falling into the stream. Vance held on to the brake like grim death. His hands clenched the wheel until his fingers almost bled, but he held on until his tight grip stopped the car. The forward cars broke from the sleeper and fell into the water, while the car which Vance held with the brake stopped one-third of the way on the brink of the chasm, over-hanging the gulch below. The forward trucks had left the track and gone down, but the remainder of the coach stayed on the track and the lives of the passengers were saved. It required two engines and nearly a half hour's work to pull this sleeper back from the brink of the chasm. Nothing but Vance's cool and brave work at the brake kept the car from plunging into the stream. A Georgia "Bluff Called." A few weeks ago the Georgia legislature, with a great flourish of trumpets, appropriated $4,000 for the Georgia state industrial college near Savannah. In the discussion of the bill the fact came out that the state of Georgia has never made an appropriation for this school, although it is known as a state institution. The United States government gives Georgia $24,000 annually for agricultural education on condition that $8,000 go to the education of Afro-Americans. For three years the state has withheld the appropriation for the industrial school, thus buncoing its Afro-American citizens out of $24,000. This year it was stated that unless the appropriation for the colored school was made that the United States would refuse to pay the $24,000. The Georgia solons saw the point, and the bill giving the Afro-Americans their share was passed without a dissenting vote. TO ST.

BURTON "This winter when I started to use Doan's Kidney Pills I ached in every bone and had intense pains in the kidneys and pelvic organs. The urine was thick and cloudy and I could barely eat enough food to live. I felt a change for the better within a week. The second week I began eating heartily. I began to improve generally and before seven weeks had passed I was well.

Three New Companies on the Canadian Side Are Arranging to Generate Electricity with Turbines. Three companies are now working hard on the Canadian side of the Niagara to prepare for generating electrical power from the falls. Two of these companies are controlled by American capital, the third exclusively by Canadian and English capital. All expect to sell their product on the Canadian side and to distribute power to points as much as 200 miles distant from the falls. Each company has encountered some interesting engineering problems in the course of the work. One company, for example, has had to plan for a roof of unusual strength over its power house, because it is expected that the spray from the falls in winter will thatch the roof with five feet of solid ice. No part of the work is more interesting than that undertaken by the Canadian company. The penstock, or great trench, of this company, at the bottom of which will be placed the turbines that are to generate the power, is 1,900 feet from the center of the Horseshoe falls. This great trench is to be 150 feet deep by 400 feet long and 30 feet wide. The problem presented was to discharge the water from the bottom of this trench after it had passed through the turbines and done its work. The engineers decided that in order to accomplish this a tunnel should be extended from the bottom of the penstock to the center of the Horseshoe falls. For this purpose a shaft about ten feet square was sunk on the Canadian side a little above the falls to a depth of about 150 feet. WASH-DAY NOW A PLEASURE. H. G. Hitner, a resident of Edinburg, Va., has been exercising his inventive genius and the result of his efforts is that the weekly family wash day, instead of being a burden as it is to most people, is the day he most enjoys of any of the six whereon man is permitted to labor. He is the owner of a rotary washing machine which he geared to his bicycle after the latter had been suspended in a frame. After the clothing has been placed in the machine, with the usual supply of water and soap, Harry lights a cigar, mounts his bicycle and wheels away. By the time he has pedaled enough to take him to New Market, if the wheels were on the ground, the clothing has been washed, he has had an enjoyable ride, and he and his wife are correspondingly happy. This is only one of the many new things that have been inaugurated in Edinburg during the past few months, and it helps to prove what everybody says about us, viz.: "The old town is surely on a boom." Recently the weather has gotten too hot for Harry to pedal, so he has attached a motorcycle to the machine, and he now swings in his hammock and basks in the early morning sunshine while the motorcycle does the washing. Dog, Fird's Gunpowder By the light of a tallow candle, William Wolf was engaged in unloading gun shells at his home in Philadelphia. Beside him a pointer dog lay watching the operation, occasionally thumping his tail against the chair on which rested the candle. Finally the dog's tail came in contact with the candle, overturning it and sending it into the can in which Wolf had placed the powder. An explosion followed, and Wolf was probably fatally burned. Machine Counts Coin. New York bank officers are interested in a new coin counting machine which is employed by the Citizens Central national bank. The machine does the work of about ten clerks. By adjusting the speed regulator any number of coins up to 30,000 can be counted and wrapped in an hour. In a working day of eight hours this rate would mean 240,000 coins. A Quiet Life. Actuaries have shown that longevity is greatest among Presbyterian ministers. This, says the Chicago Journal, shows the salutary effects of a pastoral life. JUST ONE DAY Free from the Slugger Brought Out a Fact. "During the time I was a coffee drinker," says an Iowa woman, "I was nervous, had spells with my heart, smothering spells, headache, stomach trouble, liver and kidney trouble. I did not know for years what made me have those spells. I would frequently sink away as though my last hour had come. "For 27 years I suffered thus and used bottles of medicines enough to set up a drug store—capsules and pills and everything I heard of. Spent lots of money but I was sick nearly all the time. Sometimes I was so nervous I could not hold a plate in my hands; and other times I thought I would surely die sitting at the table. "This went on until about two years ago when one day I did not use any coffee and I noticed I was not so nervous and told my husband about it. He had been telling me that it might be the coffee but I said: 'No, I have been drinking coffee all my life and it cannot be.' But after this I thought I would try and do without it and drink hot water. I did this for several days but got tired of the hot water and went to drinking coffee and as soon as I began coffee again I was nervous again. This proved that it was the coffee that caused my troubles. "We had tried Postum but had not made it right and did not like it, but now I decided to give it another trial so I read the directions on the package carefully and made it after these directions and it was simply delicious, so we quit coffee for good and the results are wonderful. Before, I could not sleep, but now I go to bed and sleep sound, am not a bit nervous now but work hard and can walk miles. Nervous headaches are gone, my heart does not bother me any more like it did and I don't have any of the smothering spells and would you believe it? I am getting fat. We drink Postum now and nothing else, and even my husband's headaches have disappeared; we both sleep sound and healthy now and that's a blessing." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Look for the book, "The Road to Wellville," in each pkg. Some Predictions for Fall Fall Colorings and Trimmings AST season efforts were made to do away suddenly with the long coat, and even some of the best modistes declared its day quite over; but all signs point to a great vogue AST season efforts were made to do away suddenly with the long coat, and even some of the best modistes declared its day quite over; but all signs point to a great vogue this coming fall for the long wrap. Efforts also were made to establish the tight-fitting corset coat as the only style, but not successfully; coats promise much diversity, some longer and looser than ever appear fairly to fall off the shoulders of the wearer. The coat shown in the cut is excellent in style, not extreme in mode, and suitable for many occasions. It is constructed of white material and trimmed with wide braid, which, by the way, will be employed extensively the coming season. Another fallacy proven to be such is concerning the separate blouse. Though FASHION VERY FASHIONABLE LONG COAT suits are an accepted mode, yet the utility of the odd waist makes is a necessary part of the wardrobe. The one in the illustration is a style that would not look out of place at any hour of the day, being simple enough for the morning and dressy enough for evening. It should be made of soft material, crepe de chine, challis, or mull, which easily adapt themselves to the shiring and allow for much fulness. If the deep epaulettes and band down the front are of Teneriffe embroidery worked on the goods of which the waist is fashioned the effect could not be improved, either as regards modishness or beauty. Colored linen gowns have been a marked feature of the summer, and no doubt will continue to be much worn during the kindly days of autumn. They are generally becoming, have an air of softness and richness, pack away easily, and have the advantage of looking fresh after considerable wear. Blue in many shades, varying from gobelin to delft, have been very popular, robin's-egg a marked favorite among well-dressed women. Undyed linens have continued in vogue, and linen gowns of mauve, raspberry-red, and pale yellow have seen. Buff chambrey, an old, old favorite, the Parisians have used not a little, but it has not yet obtained on this side. Paris has also been more taken with printed borders for summer dress trimmings, the shops here showing a few samples, but one seldom seeing the bordered dresses worn. Hand embroidery appears on everything nowadays, from chemise to hem of the outer garment. Yesterday I made a tour of the shops and at one was shown a hand-made waist just brought in, one of the new fall models. It was of softest, richest, creamiest messaline, elaborately trimmed with inset work simulating a yoke; stock and cuffs with more simple needlework decoration. The sleeves were enormous, the blouse quite full—in spite of rumors concerning the going-out of the latter style. Although so much labor had been spent on the waist, the effect was of elegant simplicity. The price for the simplicity was $42. BLOUSE SUITABLE FOR DAY OR EVENING RANGE, while perhaps not holding its own as last year, still is considered a fashionable color. Mauve is much to the fore, that delicate and beautiful purple tone, and O FLINGS AT THE FAIR SEX. tinguishing feature a trade-mark, a certain turn to the collar, a bit of change in the cut, and now we have a small outside pocket appearing, not only for the convenience of the wearer, but to give a chic addition to the garment. Veils to match the wrap, gloves, shoes and hose of the same color, mark the costume of this season's traveler. As many dames and damsels are looking forward to a visit to the St. Louis fair when they can feel reasonably sure regarding the climate of that southern city, perhaps it might be well to say a few words concerning an approved fair costume. First and foremost the short skirt, one sees no long gowns there, everybody seems to have adopted the ankle length, or at least made way with the trailing petticoats with which we have been afflicted so many years. Short silk suits, shirt-waist suits of pongee, linen, or of the cottons now considered so acceptable, will be worn in St. Louis far into October; light-weight garments easy to go about in, not hampering, not easily soiled. Chatelaine bags that do not trouble the arm or worry the mind, are the best for the exposition visitor, and are shown in a variety of styles and safety clasps. The enterprising merchant of the present gets well rid of the past season's stock before setting forth the glories of an advancing one, and though the summer sales are almost over still one may yet pick up very decided bargains in the stores; odds and ends of fine material to use for next year's demands, and leftover waists that can be altered at very little expense of time and trouble and add very materially to the winter wardrobe. As pliable materials are to be the most approved the coming season, it would be well to purchase the nun's veilings offered everywhere at 29 cents a yard, or remnants of soft silks and crepe de chine. Now, if ever, the bargain hunter is repaid for her hunting, waists slightly soiled going for a song, cheap white suits filling bargain tables, summer wrappers and negligees selling for a very little. To jump from thin stuffs to woolens, broadcloths lead for fall and winter dress goods. A great range of colors in this beautiful goods will be offered, and the choice can be made from the usual shades to the passing fancy. Soft, lightweight cloths are the ones to select, being most suitable for the demands of the present styles. The skirts of broadcloth costumes are to be quite full, but the soft material will fall in clinging effect. The coats are long, with vests more or less dressy, and extend below the waist from eight to 20 inches. The suit coats generally fit smoothly over the hips, and slope upward toward the front. It would seem the long, loose style is to be followed rather for the odd wrap. As regards finishing touches to the toilet, green continues a color much liked for the under petticoat of silk; mauve, mulberry-red, and golden brown vying with it in the autumn petticoats. These petticoats are from a quarter to half a yard fuller, the fulness beginning just above the knee; and flounces are considerably wider and also fuller. Changeable taffetas continue the favorite material. The wide belt seems wholly to have superseded the narrow, and the two leading ones are the crushed belt and the wide girdle. The tendency toward increased width is exaggerated in some of the models to a ridiculous extent. High-grade girdles are shown that have width both back and front, but those high in the back and low in front are the most becoming. Silk is the material usually employed for these, but velvet bids fair to become a rival. Belts of undressed kid are well liked, both in black and colors; one advantage of the kid belt being its pliability, it fitting itself to the figure of the wearer perhaps the best of any of the belt materials. But eare should always be taken to adjust the belt when donning it, otherwise it may appear bunglesome. Hand-bags increase in number and variety, ladies generally deeming it necessary to have a shopping-bag and another one for dress occasions. There are numberless kinds of black bags, the purely serviceable and the fancier sort, and the colored bag is coming into more use. Burt-orange, mottled seal of shade to match the costume, tans and browns, are among the novelties. The "Peggy" continues a favorite, is made of leather of all kinds and colors. It is suitable for either shopping or dress affairs. self-colored braids are chosen for the plainer gowns; a brown cloth costume should be trimmed with brown silk braid, blue cloth with braid to match, and so on. Soft buttons are liked for fall trimmings, and flouncings promise to have vogue, wide taffeta silk ruffles being one of the novelties. Velvet will be employed not only for whole suits, but as trimming to a degree unknown for several years, and will be conspicuous also on the fall and winter millinery. The soft, pliable velvets, those with lustrous tones, being preferred. Epaulettes we still have with us, and for these the dressmakers use lace, embroideries, braid and beading. Open-eyelet embroidery, which has been such a craze in Paris all the past season, will be seen even on velvet frocks this year. ELLEN OSMONDEL Memories. "Her first husband's picture?

The fish-man drove into the yard a few days after the new summer residents had taken possession of their home, and seeing an open door he stepped in and confronted the mistress of the house, relates Youth's Companion. "Gettin' settled, I s'pose," he said, agreeably, allowing his gaze to wander from two half-unpacked trunks to a table loaded with miscellaneous articles. "Well, take your time, take your time; there's plenty of it up here! I understand your husband's a doctor, ma'am?" "Yes, he is," said the summer resident, who in spite of warnings from city neighbors that she had better display no haughtiness of spirit under questioning, was unable to put much cordiality into her tone. "Well, now, I come near bein' a doctor," said the fish-man, still with a wandering gaze. "My folks wanted I should be one, all exceptin' of an aunt that had money, and was looked to to help me out financially if I took up with a profession. She spent one summer here, she made a reglar study of my character an' parts, and at the end of the season she up an' told my folks that 'twouldn't do, I must go into business.

My appetite was fitful, and I would lie awake for hours, and could not sleep, until I seemed more weary in the morning than when I retired. After reading one of your advertisements I decided to try the merits of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and I am so glad I did. No one can describe the good it did me. I took three bottles faithfully, and besides building up my general health, it drove all disease and poison out of my body, and made me feel as spry and active as a young girl. Mrs. Pinkham's medicines are certainly all they are claimed to be."—Mrs. M. E. HUGHSON, 347 East Ohio St., Chicago, Ill. Mrs. Pinkham Tells How Ordinary Tasks Produce Displacements. Apparently trifling incidents in woman's daily life frequently produce displacements of the womb. A slip on the stairs, lifting during menstruation, standing at a counter, running a sewing machine, or attending to the most ordinary tasks may result in displacement, and a train of serious evils is started. The first indication of such trouble should be the signal for quick action. Don't let the condition become chronic through neglect or a mistaken idea that you can overcome it by exercise or leaving it alone. More than a million women have regained health by the use of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. If the slightest trouble appears which you do not understand write to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn, Mass., for her advice, and a few timely words from her will show you the right thing to do.

PINKHAM:—You are indeed a godsend to women, and if they all knew what you could do for them, there would be no need of their dragging out miserable lives in agony. "I suffered for years with bearing-down pains, womb trouble, nervousness, and excruciating headache, but a few bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound made life look new and promising to me. I am light and happy, and I do not know what sickness is, and I now enjoy the best of health." Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound can always be relied upon to restore health to women who thus suffer. It is a sovereign cure for the worst forms of female complaints,—that bearing-down feeling, weak back, falling and displacement of the womb, inflammation of the ovaries, and all troubles of the uterus or womb. It dissolves and expels tumors from the uterus in the early stage of development, and checks any tendency to cancerous humors. It subdues excitability, nervous prostration, and tones up the entire female system. Its record of cures is the greatest in the world, and should be relied upon with confidence. $5000 FORFEIT if we cannot forthwith produce the original letters and signatures of above testimonials, which will prove their absolute genuineness.
