THE TWENTY-SECOND YEAR. NO. 37. Spring Style Suggestions OHIO LETTERS. THE NEW YORK CITY MAIL. Basqued Coats and Others T Caps remain much the same, rather close fitting with visor to protect eyes and complexion. The long coat is retained by many, although not a few, as the warm days appear, show preference for the natty short jacket and skirt. But whatever the design, the costumes always bear about them the solid, substantial mark denoting 'the auto garment, and leather remains the most approved trimming. It is used. The checked suit here illustrated is of black and white, trimmed with dark green cloth, and bone buttons of the same shade of green. Also the smart cap that accompanies this suit is of green. An advantage of this costume is that it can be worn for other than strictly automobile demands. With the speed indulged in by the enthusiasts, it really is necessary to have, save on the warmest days, some such garment as the sweater; dealers show in addition to the regulation woven or knit articles, waistcoats of leather or cloth, and attractive knitted vests. In the form of straps, collars, cuffs and yokes. The Danish leather, which is soft and supple, comes in such good tones of browns, yellows and reds. GAIN we are to have separate coats, the black silk jacket will be much more seen this summer. Our illustration presents one of the newest models: a tight-fitting black. GAIN we are to have separate coats, the black silk jacket will be much more seen this summer. Our illustration presents one of the newest models; a tight-fitting black, the fronts thrown open will full revers, the trimming the fashionable rushing, the sleeves veritably the latest "wrinkle." Notice the double basque, which is a pleasant change from the old Eton, as a rule becoming. The rosettes may be used or not, as one prefers. Already a few linen coats have been seen on the street, but we confess they look rather chill. The tight three-quarters length was observed, and also the loose three-quarters. Some elaborate coats of all-over embroidery are on display, but are not on the practicable order. Thick black coat or satin coat, on the other hand, has much to recommend it; it easily attains elegance, and is an economical investment, can be worn with almost any costume. For dressy wear are noticed basque coats of thin material. For suspender dresses there are offered shoulder capes, with very long ends. They simply cover the shoulders and upper arms, are quite short at sides and back. They are generally made of dress material. Throughout the summer they will be a feature, and will be worn with both white and colored toilets. A few capes are displayed that are drawn in close at the waist in the back, somewhat after the fashion esteemed elegant by elderly ladies a decade ago. It is doubtful if they will be popular. The little coffee jacket of four years back is rearing its head and will be worn with the suspender style of dress. Long, loose silk coats that cover a multitude of deficiencies, promise to regain their one-time vogue. It would seem as though the dealers were struggling to see how many late styles can be brought back into favor. To turn a moment from coats to a "near" subject, let us speak of girdles. The high corselet style, fastened at one side and closely fitted, is to hold over this season, and the new coats are built with this in mind, often the short jacket seems but a continuation of the girdle. We take a few hours the other day in a tour of inspection at one of the best places where suits are sold, and remarked several attractive little jackets with vests that consisted simply of up- The big coats have numberless pockets, and the cape styles are now to the fore here as well as in more dressy toilers. Coats are made of various materials; waterproofing, linens, ponges, and other silks. The pongue is a very sensible and pretty choice, easily parts with dust, can be laundered, if necessary. The gayetse of colors will be seen; violets, pale blue, yellow, even scarlet. When the latter is worn in one of the flaming red machines, the effect, to say the least, will be noisy. The shirt waist favors are of light-weight wools, the green and white combination much liked. Vells do not change much; some hoods are used that on occasion may envelop the hat and whole head. Plaids bid fair to become very popular; one sees waists, both of vestings and of silk, in beautiful rich plaids. The leading colors are plums, greens and raspberry reds. Mohair continues in high favor, and white mohair is especially liked. The "separate waist" has triumphed over all its enemies, is strong and lusty once again. We need no longer worry if our costume is not all the same color, from tip to toe. White waists are in evidence, the lingerie ones often described the favorites. Waists of China silk are displayed in the shops in a variety of excellent designs and materials, and are snapped up by women who realize the white waist is to have full reign this season. How do you like this hat? A blue horsehair of soft shade, bedecked with a wreath of moss-rose buds. The hat is of the flat sort. TAFFETA COAT WITH DOUBLE BASQUE. and-down rows of lace frills. They were very summary looking, very dainty, but it would be no easy matter to keep them the latter. Sleeves seem to be either medium sized leg-ø-mutton or with full puffs and long cuffs. Jackets are fashioned to show the lingerie waist underneath, or at least to disclose the frilly stuff now liked about the neck. Day was when we thought a bit of white at the neck looked prim and old-maidish, but now we cannot get enough filmy snowiness about the throat. Dainty white stocks, all insertion and lace, have added a frill below, forming a quaint neck dressing reminiscent of Queen Anne—or whoever it was that islanded her neck in a sea of lawn. Not that we disparage the new neckwear. By no means. We vote it cleanly, pretty, generally becoming. Indulge in it to the limit of your purse. ELLEN OSMONDE CLEVELAND O., SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 1905.

That Is What One Newspaper Said Another Did. and Recently. Too. Why Our People Should Oppose the Candidacy of James Linn-Dr. Jackson Again Explains His Stand for the Race. Springfield, O.—Jim Linn is trying to get away from the real issues of my articles by claiming, it is said, that they were written to force him to pay a sum of money to squelch them. I do not want them squelched, but want every Negro voter in Springfield to see them. Jim Linn desired and tried to get a conference with me, hoping, as I verily believe, to compromise me in some way. But I am for the defeat of Jim Linn because I believe he has done our people almost an everlasting injustice and injury. He claims that he is not responsible for his brother's utterances. They are doubtless the outgrowth of a life of Negro-hatred which has enabled him to yell "nigger" until now. Jim Linn wants our votes and "condescends" now to call all members of the race (except one) his "colored brethren." I am first, last, and the time against Jim Linn. He all the time against Jim Linn. in this, the eleventh hour. Do not vote until you have considered well this matter, I do not come to you with a candidate, because I have none. But I do feel that no man who is opposing Jim Linn has ever done us as much harm as he has. He has been the outrages of the paper he was connected with, responsible for the lynching and burnings of a year ago, is proven by the deeds of a small mob in Springfield only a week ago. A mob, inspired by a cartoon in the morning paper, was infamed to such a pitch that it endeavored to repeat the black deeds of a year ago. Here is a verbatim copy from the Enquirer of April 4: "The reason for the gathering of a mob was a publication in a local newspaper, with a cartoon, in which the caloon was characterized as a "notorious resort" known as the "Jungles." My assertion in the beginning was that the editors of the paper Jim Linn was connected with were responsible for the lynching, and the foregoing only goes to prove that my assertions are true. The lynching of a year ago cost Springfield and the state of Ohio $18,000. This must be paid by the taxpayers of Clarke county, this city and the state. As parting advice I wish to say to the taxpayers, and our voters in particular, consider well when you go to the primaries next Thursday and do not vote for Jim Linn, whom I believe to be the greatest enemy that our people of this city have ever had.

Stop Complaining and Use the Law! Xenia, O.—Recently while on his way to Cambridge City, Ind., Dr. F. T. Lindsay, of this city, was refused a ticket on a special limited over the Dayton & Western Traction Line. The ticket agent at Dayton refused to sell the doctor a ticket, saying he was not allowed to sell tickets to Afro-Americans and drunken men, and if he did so he would be lald off duty ten days. The doctor was not to be out-done, so he appealed to Mr. Murray, the superintendent of the line, who asked him to be careful. A number of white men present became very indignant because the doctor was humiliated. The doctor should invoke the aid of the Ohio Civil Rights law and stop such discrimination. Such "dolings" do not "go" in Ohio only when and where our people supinely submit to them. Obituary—Mrs. Gilliam. Columbus, O.—Mrs. Rachel S. Gilliam, the mother of Rev. E. L.

CALLS FOR TAR AND FEATHERS. The Cleveland Artisan, more prejudiced than righteous and more malignant than just, assails Bishop Turner in rather unfair terms, because the good bishop vindicates the cause of his race. It is proverbial among the enlightened and liberty-loving people that he who would be free must himself strike the blow. For a whole lifetime and ever since the close of the civil war, the clarion voice of that grand old man has been heard pleading the cause of his people and of God's humanity. He has never flinched, never quailed in giving utterance to the convictions which possessed his soul. True, honest and faithful to the holier impulses of his being, he pushed his fight for race, country and God. He will never surrender his cause to Baal's God. Yet the editor of one of our home journals, the Artisan, demands that for these utterances the bishop should be tarred and feathered. It is simply just that all citizens in opposing a public wrong, in denouncing crime and defending the right should not only be tolerated, but encouraged. Bishop Turner, a veteran of the war of the rebellion, viewed by the American people, may well be regarded as a benefactor and a patriot, while those who oppose him along this line may be justly termed incendiary and anarchistic. The constitution accords the right to all free Americans to denounce public wrongs and to expose those evils which are cursing and damming the nation, and in this Bishop Turner has done no more than has been done by our grandest and noblest leaders in congress. Upon the cardinal measures advocated by Bishop Turner all true Americans must agree that he is right. We regret the near-sightedness of those who in their pretensions to loyalty and good government are not willing to espouse the cause which Bishop Turner so justly defends. A CATHOLIC HERO Great head-line eminating from the Associated Press announce the "Burial of a Catholic priest among Negroes." The act itself amounts to a mere myth so far as the practice is concerned. All over the continent Afro-Americans are buried among the whites, and it becomes no more a matter of remark to bury white men among Negroes. It is not at all a matter of astonishment. On the contrary it seems more astonishing that the press and the intelligent element should attempt to make a bugaboo out of it. But such continues to be the disposition of the illiterate and idle-minded to bring about a sensation about what seems only to reflect discreditably upon those who would choose to be foolish. Father McCormick had charge of the Colored Catholic church at San Antonio and died of consumption. He was quite a young man, born in St. Louis in 1871, and spent his early life in Pittsburg. He was consistent in his religious life, manly and highly progressive, and proved the integrity of his pure life by steadfastly adhering to the principles which he professed. He entered into the priesthood and at the same time engaged in educating our people. Never once dawned in his calling, he fearlessly and with feelings of a peculiar pride, continued in this mission he earnestly toiled in the south and so vigorously did he engage in his work that he could do no more. But this grand man remained at his post till the messenger, death, summoned him from among the living. His life illustrates a beautiful example of what all the truly great and good of earth are called to put on record. The priest remained true to the consciousness of Christian duty. He was no respecter of person, and his last request in writing was: "Bury me in a plain coffin in the Colored Catholic cemetery, among the people for whom I have labored." The request was compiled with and within Sf. Peter Colored church cemetery rests the remains of Father McCormick, a man and a hero who exemplified the life of the Savior who built his own monument which shall stand unimpaired by the ravages of time and undiminished by the lapse of ages.

WITH ROUGH RIDERS President Roosevelt Attends the Reunion of His Regiment at San Antonio. RECEIVED HEARTY WELCOME Within the Shade of the Historic Alamo He Was Greeted in a Wildly Enthusiastic Manner and Re- San Antonio, Tex., April 8.—With the city covered with patriotic emblems, a display of flags of all sizes, likenesses of the president in many windows and the streets filled with cheering throngs of people, Theodore Roosevelt could not mistake the hearty welcome accorded him in San Antonio yesterday. Enormous crowds of people greeted him along the route of the procession from Fort Sam Houston to Alamo plaza, where an address of welcome was delivered and a response made. It was nearly seven years since he left San Antonio with his Rough Riders. No human being dreamed that after that I would return as president of the United States," he said in a short address at the depot. It was a busy day for the president. It began with the reception at the train. This fortification as soon as the president and the party proceeded to the parade grounds of the post, where the troops in Fort Sam Houston were reviewed. This ceremony over, the start was made for the city. From the moment the procession of troops, carriages, police and Rough Riders swept out of the gates of the post into Grayson street until the president entered the fair grounds to go to camp with the Rough Riders, he was the recipient of ovations. The most spectacular scene of the day was at Travis park. The president's reception here by 8,000 school children was the most inspiring feature of the program. All the way the crowd cheered and the children sang "America" while a band played the national air. On Alamo plaza, within the shadow of the old Alamo, he was greeted in a manner which profoundly touched him. His arrival was the signal for a burst of cheering which lasted until after he had taken his seat on the stand, and which was renewed when he arose to respond to the address of welcome.

DEFIANT AND INSULTING Such Is President Castro's Answer to Minister Bowen's Request for Arbitration. EVEN THREATENING IN ITS TONE While the Text of the Reply Has Not Been Made Public, There is Reason to Believe that the "Big Stick" Will be Applied to Venezuela. Caracas, Venezuela, April 12.—"President Castro will not withdraw the New York and Bermudese Asphalt Co. case from the Venezuelan courts and will not resubmit the Olcott case to arbitration if the whole American army and navy come to Venezuela." This emphatic statement of Gen. Ybarra of theenezuelan secretary of foreign affairs describes the role of the reply which President Castro made to the recent proposal of the American state department for the arbitration of the Bermudese and the Olcott case. Washington, April 12.—Throughout the diplomatic corps keen interest exists regarding the sensational answer which President Castro is said to have made to Minister Bowen's latest request for the arbitration of the pending questions between the United States and Venezuela. Although Venezuelan legation officials say the text of the dispatch was not included in the mail reaching the legation yesterday, and which left Caracas after the answer was delivered to Mr. Bowen, it has become noised among diplomats that the answer was almost threatening in wording. While diplomats who have inquired at the state department have been informed that practically no action will be taken regarding Venezuela until President Roosevelt returns from his western trip, they also have received the intimation that if the exact text of Castro's answer comprises an insult to the American minister it will not pass unnoticed.

Portland, Ore., April 12—Judge Bellinger's court was crowded yester-day when the time arrived for Senator John H. Mitchell to plead to four indictments found against him by the late federal grand jury. In a plea in abatement Senator Mitchell challenged the acts of the late federal grand jury.

Putter, and therefore he would waive all legal technicalities and be ready to proceed to trial without delay upon the issues at stake. Judge Bennett entered a plea of not guilty to sedition in three of the cases against him, two for conspiracy and one for accepting money while holding the position of United States senator to expeditie title before the iand department.

THE SACRIFICE OF YVES, THE FISHERMAN By MAXIME AUDOIN THAT fellow Yves has never known what it was to have a mother or a father, much less a single friend. With him the most important fact was that he was strong; his two arms were all he had to keep him from starvation. He was handsome, but he did not know it, nor would he have cared if he had known it; his regular features and proud carriage told of noble blood. The men in the village hated him because he was a stranger, and because his courage was greater than their own, and they were jealous, too, because his good looks pleased the women. Both men and women feared him. Why, he did not know or care. Yves lived in a stone cabin that he had built himself during the winter, when the fishing season was at an end; he carved little boats and playthings that he sold during the season to tourists. And because he never spent his money in getting drunk at the tavern, the villagers called him stingy. Furthermore, they hated him because one terrible night during the equinoctial gale, when not a single sailor dared to go out. Yves went alone in his light boat to the rescue of a schooner upon the rocks. After this their hatred redoubled; but hatred is not enough to kill a man who desires to live. One evening, it was three wears after the rescue of the schooner. Yves was alone in his cabin, when he heard feeble cries outside the door. It was in winter and a cruel north wind was making the snowwakes dance in great swirls on the cold beach. Yves opened the door. Crouched upon the sill he saw a woman and a SHE HEARD A VOICE CALLING little girl, huddled closely together and moaning pityes. Yves carried them into the house, and, piling the wood upon the fire, prepared a great bed of seawed for them in one corner. But the woman had suffered too long from the laca of food and the cold. Early the next day she died. Then that fellow Yves adopted the little girl, a frail figure of 13, with big pleading brown eyes. Her name was Margarition. After this winter night a new life began for the lonely Yves. To him Margarition became a whole family. She was society, she was his daughter, his sister, his companion, his friend, she was his idol, before whom he prostrated himself in perpetual adoration. There was nothing too good for her, and the money he had earned so painfully was scattered gladly for the finest stuffs for her dresses and beautiful lace and gold chains. Margarition might well have become selfish in the midst of such loving worship, but there was no room for aught save grateful affection in her warm little heart. Not far from their cabin, the rock cliffs, sloping gently on either side, made room for a tiny beach of finest sand, where in one corner rose a stream of purer water. One summer afternoon, Margariton, her pitcher poised upon her head, was following the narrow path that led to the spring, when she heard a voice calling to her. Turning, half frightened, she saw a young man, an artist, sitting on the rocks before his easel. For a moment the painter stood lost in admiration of the beauty of the girl before him; then, as she was about to hasten on, he stretched out both hands, pleadingly, regardless of the fact that he was still holding his palette and brushes, and cried: "Young lady, I beg and entreat you to remain just where you are, without moving, if only for an instant!" "Gladly," said Margariton, blushing rosily. The painter immediately disappeared behind his canvas and the brushes flew fast as he worked. Half an hour later he asked his model to inspect his first sketch. Margariton hastened to his side, her curiosity stronger than her fear. At the sight of the canvas on the easel she stopped short in ecestasy, without a word to express her rapturous admiration. "Ah, my beautiful stranger! This means the salon for me," cried the artist, enthusiastically. "Tell me, will you come back to-morrow at this same time? And what is your name?" "Margariton," replied the girl, shyly, as she nodded her head in consent. The next day Margariton was prompt at the meeting. She had not said anything to Yves of her chance encounter with the stranger, nor of her promise. Not that she felt that she had done wrong, but from a quick instinct of prudence, as if it were a presentment of the pain she might cause her brother. It was the first secret there had ever been between them. A week passed, and still another week, and if the portrait had not advanced it was different with the friendship between the artist and his model. Friendship? Nay, Jean Vermeul knew well enough it was no mere feeling of friendship that made his heart beat so hard at the sight of the beautiful girl. He loved her with all the strength of his being, and resolved that, could he win her love, he would marry her. But what of the brother Yves, to whom Margariton owed such a debt of gratitude? What would he say? The villagers, who had known from the first of the meetings at the spring, took care that Yes should not be left in ignorance. What terrible vengeance would the hated Yes, they asked one another, take upon the painter? They did not know, but they awoke the outburst of his wrist with a cruel anxiety. But there was no cain on his face, whatever he may have felt. Only that night after he had kissed Margarion good night the young girl heard him toss uneasily upon his rough couch before she went happily to sleep. The next day his mind was made up. In the afternoon, when the young girl went singing to the trysting place, Yes, hidden among the rocks, was present at the meeting. Not a detail of the pretty courtship escaped his jealous eye—the warm hand clasps and the tender glances which, better than words, betrayed their passion. And no one heard the bitter sigh when Margarition, radiant in the wonderful happiness of being loved by the man who made earth a paradise to her, cried: "I must tell my brother Yves that you want to marry me; me, a poor girl, penniless and without education! He will be glad, too, but not as I love you, Jean, my beloved!" Yves had changed greatly during the last weeks. He no longer ate or slept, and his eyes burned strangely in his pale face. Margarition in her happiness did not see the change, nor did she notice, when she took her brother's hand in hers and told him her secret, that he braced himself against the wall to keep himself from falling. "You love him and you ask my consent, Margarition." Yves asked, hoarseily. "You are free, little one, to do as you will, but I am gratified that you did not forget me utterly. You are the one being on earth that I love; you know it well, and your happiness is all I seek. Marry the man you love, little one; be happy always." Yves placed a bag of gold in her hand. "This is for your wedding dress," he said. "I have had it ready for you a long time." Then, with a long kiss on the girl's forehead, Yves went out, but this time he lid not turn at her signaals of farewell. Sitting proudly erect in his boat, balancing easily with the rise and fall of the waves, a single fisherman was darkly outlined against the sunset colored waters of the bay. Alone upon the beach, Jean Vermeul watched him in admiration. What a splendid fellow," he cried, "I must ask him to pose for me some day." He watched the boat glide easily upon the surface of the water, carried by the current out toward the open sea and to the heart of the golden sun. Soon the man was but a black dot on the horizon. Then he disappeared forever.—From the Frenc, in Detroit Free Press. READY FOR EMERGENCY. Girl Whose Ingenuity and Inventiveness Were Always in Working Order. "Not able scholars, but capable women," is what the girl students of our colleges desire chiefly to become says Miss Elizabeth McCracken. The college-bred woman should be, and she generally is, a person of resources. "Not long ago," writes Miss McCracken, in the Outlook, "an acquaintance, to whom I had just told the good news of the continuous advancement of a mutual friend in her chosen occupation, said, in comment: "It is not so much because she is brilliant that she succeeds as it is because she is always prepared for emergencies, however great." "Or small," I added. "You are thinking of the magnet, was the quick reply. "The magnet?' I questioned. "Yes," my acquaintance explained. "One day at college one of the other girls dropped her eye-glasses in a narrow opening between two walls. She couldn't reach them, and had very nearly decided that they must remain permanently out of reach. "Our successful friend happened to remember that their frame was made of steel. She went to the physical laboratory, borrowed a magnet, tied a string to it, and, lowering it carefully into the opening, gravely drew up the eye-glasses." Miss McCracken, who was making a study of American college women, passed along the anecdote from one institution to another in the course of her investigations, and at each it elicited the same comment: "How like a college girl!"

WONDERFUL DISCOVERY Curly Hair Made Straight By OUR "QUEEN OF SONG" Madam Marie Selika CAN BE ENGAGED FOR CONCERTS Edwyn A. Elsner's appointment to a position in the sheriff's office was secured for him by local white republicans. Neither Henry Taylor, who was one of the Alvin Sellers' supporters, nor Tom Fleming, nor "The Grafters," had any more weight with the sheriff than a straw in the middle of China. Taylor was in the Brown-Myers-Clifford-Gordon conference in Sellers' interests at the Hollendens house barber shop. Sellers and Hon. Jere A. Brown vouch for this. It was the little black Tammany that attacked Taylor in a cowardly manner as it has done before and again "put him out of the running." In spite of this, however, he was weak enough to enter the conference. The Gazette has no interest in the matter except that the truth be known. It is news and that is what our patrons want. The "Twelfth Republician club," better known as "The Grafters," and "Colored Citizens Projective League" had the same weight with the sheriff as had the little black Tammany and Hon. Jere A. Brown, whom Mr. Mulhern asked to find him a competent person for the place and whom the (sheriff) proceeded straightway to the "turn down" after he had done as requested, and reinforced his selection with the support of the leaders of the little black Tammany. Elsner owes his appointment to certain local white republicans whom we can name, and to them only.

"For two years I was critically ill and could not attend to my household duties, and at one time I was so weak and miserable that I could not even walk. My trouble was chronic dyspepsia. I became extremely thin and had a sallow complexion. I had no appetite and could not take any food without suffering great distress." "Did you have a physician?" "Yes, I took medicine from a dozen different doctors, but without getting any benefit whatever." "How did you get on the track of a cure?" "A book about Dr. Williams' Pink Pills was thrown in our doorway one day. My husband picked it up and read it through carefully. He was so impressed by the statements of those who had been cured by that remedy that he immediately bought three boxes of the pills and insisted on my taking them." "Did they help you at once?" "I began to feel better the second day after I started to use the pills and by the time I had taken the three boxes I was entirely well. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills can cure even when doctors fail, and they cure thoroughly, for a long time has passed since my restoration to health and I know it is complete and lasting."

AN EXTRAVAGANT OUTFIT. What Is Frequently Paid for a Muff and a Boa in New York City. I find that $6,000 for a sable coat is only a fair price, in fact it is a very low price for a coat of fine sable, writes Cleveland Moffett, in "The Shameful Misuse of Wealth," in Success Magazine. As witness this talk that I had the other day with New York's leading furrier: "Can you show me a good sable coat?" I inquired. "Russian sable?" he asked. "Yes," said I. "something especially fine—fay about $6,000." He smiled: "We haven't anything made up that I would call especially fine. We have a rather short coat of rather light skins, moderate quality, that will cost $10,000." "Ten thousand dollars!" I exclaimed. "Then what would a good coat cost?" He continued to smile and produced a number of fine skins—the real imperial skins, very dark with silver lights playing through the soft fur. And he showed me the price marks, $550 a skin, about ten dollars a square inch. "This is the best Siberian sable," he went on. "A coat of moderate length, say 30 inches, requires 60 skins, and—" Sixty times 550. I murmured. "Thirty-three thousand dollars, which includes the cost of making." "And a longer coat?" I gasped. "One reaching to a lady's ankles would require, say 80 skins, that is, $4,000," he replied, rather matter-of-fact. "And you sell coats at such prices?" I continued in amazement. "We sell this kind of sable as fast as we can get it. The best skins are very scare." "And a muff?" I asked, meekly. "just a muff?" "五skiers," said he, "$2.750. There's one in the showcase." "And a boa? A little boa?" "四 skins at least, that is $2.200." Here then evidently I erred not on the side of exaggeration, but of under-statement; I put down $30,000 as the maximum yearly sum, that a few New York women spend on dress, including everything, whereas nearly $50,000 may be spent simply for a fur coat with boa and muff." SALVATION ARMY CHARITIES Wide Scope of Work Done in the United States by This Organization. The following statistics deal with our work in the United States only, in going through them, writes Commander Eva Booth, in the Reader Magazine, we should remember that the flag of the Salvation Army is flying in 49 countries and colonies, and that the same kind of work is being carried on in all of them: Three thousand seven hundred and seventy-three officers, cadets and employees. Nine hundred and eighty-three corps, outposts, slum posts and social institutions. Ten thousand five hundred and eighty accommodations in social institutions. accommodations in social institutions. Nine hundred thousand dollars expended annually upon the poor of A merica, exclusive of farm colonies. Three million annual provision of beds for the poor. One hundred industrial homes, wood yards and stores for the unemployed. One thousand and fifty accommodations (finding daily work for the unemployed). Three hundred and fifty thousand dollars annual income from their work. Fifty thousand found outside employment. Three farm colonies. Two thousand eight hundred acreage. Five hundred and thirty colonists (men, women and children). Twenty-one rescue homes for fallen girls. Two thousand six hundred and thirty-five girls passed through yearly. One hundred and sixty babies cared One hundred and sixty babies cared for in rescue homes daily. Five hundred passing through annually. One hundred and fifty accommodations for children in day nurseries. tions for children in day nurseries. Two hundred and fifty children settled in colonies with parents. One thousand five hundred children cared for in various ways annually. Three hundred thousand persons annually provided with Christmas dinners, clothing and toys. WHY A PERSON GETS SLEEPY Scientists disagree as to the causes of drowsiness. Some curious and remarkable reasons are assigned for the desire everybody has for sleeping. It is attributed by some people as an accumulation in the system of the poisonous products of the wear and tear of the body during the day. There seems to be some measure of truth in this, says the New York Herald, for in many diseases the patients are often sleepless. Another hypothesis is that the nerve cells of the brain dwell apart from each other, as it were, during sleep. The brain is composed of millions of tiny bodies called cells, each having several delicate prolongations, or branches, for the purpose of communicating with other cells. When the brain is fully active all these cells are in contact, or ready to be in contact, with one another, but the time occasionally comes, it is thought, when the branches of all the cells curl up, and their isolation means that complete communication between the cells ceases. The state of body and mind that follows is what we call sleep. The most probable explanation of sleep, however, is that in some way or other the internal condition of the cells is changed, partly from exhaustion and partly because of diminished stimulation from other parts of the body. A Bad Model "I must say I'm s'prised at our minister," said Deacon Longface. "He soz all Christians should take pattern of the bee as a model of industry." "Wat's the matter o' thet?" demanded his wife. "Why, the bee works on the Sabbath same's any other day." -Catholic Standard and Times. VERY EXCELLENT THING The Up-to-Date Stenographer Is Not at a Loss for Authorities on Misspeelled. The stenographer who couldn't spell was called into the private office, relating "This is outrageous!" exclaimed the employer. "What's the matter?" asked the stenographer. "All of these words are misspelled." said the employer. But the stenographer was resourceful. Only a day or so before she had been reading an article on spelling reform. How do you know they are?" she asked. "Any dictionary will prove it," replied the employer. "The use of relying on dictionaries?" asked the stenographer. "We are in a period of great changes." Marianne she brought out six different magazines to read, and different methods of simplifying English spelling and demonstrated to him without trouble that authorities could be proactive in writing of letters that she cared to put together.

Lowndes, Mo., April 14—Mrs. H. C. Harty, of this place, says: "For years I was in very bad health. Every spring I would get so low that I was unable to do my own work. I was also unable to do the spring and any other time of the year. I was very weak and miserable and had much pain in my back and head. I saw Dodd's Kidney Pills advertised last spring and began treatment of them and they have certainly done me more good than anything I have ever done. I was all right last spring and felt better than I have for over ten years. I am fifty years of age and am stronger to-day than I have been for many years since I gave Dodd's Kidney Pills credit for the wonderful improvement." The statement of Mrs. Harty is only one of a great many where Dodd's Kidney Pills have proven themselves to be effective. I am unsurpassed as a tonic and are the only medicine used in thousands of families. Every man has a right to his opinion, but only a fool has the right to always have his opinion is—Chicago Record-Herald.

Pusheck's Kuro for Weakness, Pain and Rheumatism WORTH REMEMBERING. There are three entirely different kinds of ingredients used in making the three different varieties of baking powders on the market, viz: (1) Mineral-Acid or Alum, (2) Bone-Acid or Phosphate, and (3) Cream of Tartar made from grapes. It is important, from the standpoint of health, to know something about these ingredients, and which kind is used in your baking powder. (1) Mineral-Acid, or Alum, is made from a kind of clay. This is mixed with diluted oil of vitriol and from this solution a product is obtained which is alum. Alum is cheap; costs about two cents a pound, and baking powder made with this Mineral-Acid sells from 10 to 25c. a pound. (2) Bone-Acid, or Phosphate, is the basis of phosphate baking powders and the process is fully described in the patents issued to a large manufacturer of a phosphate powder. The U. S. Patent Office Report gives a full and exact description, but the following extract is enough: "Burned bones, after being ground, are put into freshly diluted oil of vitriol and with continual stirring and in the following proportion," etc. From this Bone-Acid phosphate baking powders are made; such powders sell from 20 to 30 cents a pound. (3) Cream of Tartar exists in all ripe grapes, and flows with the juice from the press in the manufacture of wine. After the wine is drawn off the tartar is scraped from the cask, boiled with water, and crystals of Cream of Tartar, white and very pure, separate and are collected. It differs in no respect from the form in which it originally existed in the grape. Cream of Tartar, then, while the most expensive, is the only ingredient that should be used in a baking powder to act upon the soda, as its wholesomeness is beyond question. Cream of Tartar baking powders sell at about 40 to 50 cents a pound. Such are the facts, and every one careful of the health of the family should remember this rule:—Baking powders selling from 10 to 25 cents a pound are made of Mineral Acids; those selling from 20 to 30 cents of acid; and those from 40 to 50 cents of Cream of Tartar made from granes. A Hint. "Energy," said the young man, who had been calling steadily for about a year, "energy and promptitude—those are what are wanted nowadays."

The duties of the present Interstate Commerce Commission are to correct all discriminations in railroad rates. If it finds that an unjust rate is in effect, the railroad is notified. If it declines to change it, the Commission can bring suit in Court and, if the Court decides in favor of the Commissioners' finding, the railroad must obey, or its officers may be brought up for contempt of court and summarily dealt with.

Some queer stories about coffee that is sold in bulk, could be told, if the people who handle it (grocers), cared to speak out. Could any amount of mere talk have persuaded millions of housekeepers to use Lion Coffee. the leader of all package coffees for over a quarter of a century, if they had not found it superior to all other brands in Purity, Strength, Flavor and Uniformity? This popular success of LION COFFEE can be due only to inherent merit. There is no stronger proof of merit than continued and increasing popularity. If the verdict of MILLIONS OF HOUSEKEEPERS does not convince you of the merits of LION COFFEE, it costs you but a trifle to buy a package.
