THE TWENTY-SECOND YEAR. NO. 40. The Sweet Girl Graduate FOR GRADUATION DAY. CHOOLS and colleges are get-ing ready to bring forth their yearly output, and anxious maidenhood is wrinkling its brows over the proper gown in which to make this great appearance e public. Maybe we can help before the public. Maybe we can help a bit. White is the thing, but I must confess in the beginning it is not the "simple white" of the sweet girl graduate of days gone by. This year, as somebody remarked, the girl with the diploma will have very little of the Puritan maiden look, rather resemble a ball-room miss. Skirts will be very frilly and full about the ankles, sleeves short, the blouse quite bountiful. Even the thin girl must bend to the dictum of short sleeves; she can have a frill to cover the shapeless elbow, but the sleeve that is long nowadays looks very prim and old-fashioned indeed. One of the prettiest models of graduation frock on display has sleeves that come quite a way above the elbow, scarcely more than puffs. It is made of a very fine Persian lawn, the skirt a quaint old-fashioned affair, quite full at the hips, the waist curly style with chemisette of the finest swiss embroidery. This style of waist will obtain for the girl graduate, the chemisette not so elaborate as exquisitely fine. The high chemisette neck is all right with elbow sleeves, so Dame Fashion declares—and many there be that follow after her. One surplice frock of silk muslin with a chemisette of Japanese embroidery on silk gauze; it was very handsome, but something less costly could have been equally effective. Materials used should be generally agreed upon by the class—if that be possible; for the audience is going to judge the whole effect, and if one wear a thick dress, the next one a gauzy affair, if one wear black shoes and the next one white, there is sure to be a diminution of beauty, a lack of harmony. When there is such a wide choice of dress materials offered, it would seem Late Spring and Summer Styles ASTER has come and gone, but in our minds we yet picture the gay gowns that were sported on that pleasant day. The holiday came late enough this year for the styles to be well assured, appeared then was no experi- and what appeared then was no experiment. One of the most marked features was that the whole costume was a harmony, hat, gown, gloves, parasol, all the same shade. And this is a welcome change from the bizarre contrasts of recent tives. To be sure, the one-color scheme obtained last season, but it is now more than ever in evidence. Mauve is a favorite shade of the present, and, when becoming, it is one to be selected for the dressy costume; for a plain street suit it is rather the wrong shade. We confess a distinct liking for the shepherd plaids for walking suits, they look so neat and trim, and suggest practical fitness for rough wear. Of course, there are cheap models in the check suits, ill-fitting, poorly cut; but those that are well made are extremely chic. We noticed one the other day that was worn by a young matron out for a stroll with her children, two rosy, sensibly dressed youngsters. The pretty mother had on a short dress and short Eton of black and white Panama cloth, short enough so that it did not have to be held up in crossing the street. It was very bountiful about the ankles, and out from the fullness peeled trim patent leather low shoes with gray spats. The hat was a black turban with a white crown and white vell, the gloves a summery gray. She looked as neat, as well gowned as could be, much better dressed than some women near by gotten up in billows of chiffon and lace. And this costume would be suitable for almost any occasion for the summer. Our illustration pictures* a tailored shirt-waist that presents the distinctive features of the year; the fronts tucked, the back set on a yoke, the sleeves full at the shoulders and tapering toward the wrists. Many of the models have S E that a number might easily make selections that would be generally pleasing and yet allow of individual preference. India mull is a happy choice, not expensive and yet delicate and pretty. It launders well and can be worn often after the great event is past. Silk is not liked for graduation dresses, although silk muslin, silk eolienne, and silk voile are approved. No jewels should be worn save of the most modest sort; heavy, expensive display is considered the most exeercable taste. Flowers, of course, are an important adjunct, and a word concerning those favored at the moment may be in point—for there certainly are fashions in flowers as in most everything else. Orchids for corsage wear are in high favor, and those of pale mauve with deep centers are very beautiful. The girl that carries these may add other touches of color to her costume by having the heels of her slippers of metallic inlay the shape of her orchids, but this might look as if mademoiselle was given to rather too careful study of the subject of dress. Fine materials, girlish fuzziness, are all very well, but avoid over-elaboration. Stockings and gloves, it goes without saying, are white. If possible try to resurrect from old trunk or chest the filmy lace-work stockings that a couple of generations ago were so much worn. Have these bleached, and, behold., here is a pair of hose that will be admired by all the other girls, for they don't seem to make just that kind to-day. A frock made for a pretty blonde with sunniest of tresses, was designed with reference to her particular style. It was cut princess fashion at the waist line, confined by several rows of gaging, hung in straight folds and made frilly with ruched flouches of net. The neck, which was cut pointed, was filled in with point d'esprit lace and a net fichu was gracefully fitted to the shoulders and bust. The sleeves were very short, just a couple of puffs. The petticoats were very full and white, the white kid slippers had gold heels, the flowers carried were daffodils. A harmony in white and gold. A TAILORED WAIST. smaller sleeves than the one here shown. Speaking of shirt-waists, there are none more desirable than those made of handkerchief linen. Eyelet embroidery, in spite of much cheap imitation, continues a favorite for the fancier waists, and is used very effectively for yokes, and for chemisette and deep cuffs. For tailored suits the narrow belt is preferred, but when the girdle is worn it should be on the belt order, the point extending downwards rather than upwards. Belts of shaded ribbons are very much the thing, softly shirred, boned back and front, and the suspender girdle, with deep bodice and strap, or straps, over the shoulders, is seen in various materials, but the suspender dress demands consideration in an article that can treat it at length, and we defer until later to expand on this subject. Chemi-settes are worn morning, noon and night; with simple cotton dresses, with evening gown, with traveling dress. ELLEN OSMONDER CLEVELAND O., SATURDAY, MAY 6, 1905. DIXON SCOURGED And by a White Southerner, Too, For a Vicious Tale in His Miserable Book. The Fidelity of the Slaves During the War—No One Ever Heard of Such a Tale as Dixon's—One of the Most Beautiful Chapters of History. Chicago, ill.-Speaking of Rev. Thomas Dixon's victious new book, "The Clansman." Mr. Richard Weightman, (white) a southerner, said recently in a Washington, D. C. letter to a local daily paper, "But when the Dixon makes an emancipated slave of one of the aristocratic families commit the unutterable crime upon the person of a young girl belonging to that class, I take issue with him. I do not assert, because I cannot prove, that no similar incident ever occurred, but I know that I have never heard of one, and that no southerner of the hundreds within my acquaintance has ever heard of one or knows anybody who has. "Nothing is more notorious than the bitter antagonism that existed before the civil war as between the slaves and what they contemptiously called "the poor whites," and that this engrained emmys expressed itself afterwards in frightful atrocities on both sides I know only too well for my peace of mind. But no less notorious on the other hand, is the patient and affectionate fidelity exhibited by the slaves during the war, when the "big house" and its inmates were at their mercy, and there was practically no one to prevent, much less avenge, any outrage they might have chosen to commit. The record in this respect constitutes one of the brightest and most beautiful chapters in the history of the human race. When the descendants of the slave-owning aristocracy of the south forget that debt of gratitude and repudiate that obligation of affection, the class will have entered upon its decadence and have lost its sense of self-respect."

Youngstown, O.—The undersigned, well known and leading white citizens of Youngstown and this (Mahoning county) have issued the following appeal to all republican voters, regardless of race or color, and of all those in the county who should heed, our men should be the first to dq so and also be the most active and most enthusiastic: "To the Republicans of Maboning County: "We desire to interest fair-minded republicans in the candidacy of Hon. William R. Stewart for probate judge of Mahoning county. We are interested ourselves, because we believe him to be well equipped for the office and to be an honest and deserving citizen. He is a product of our schools, his whole life has been passed among us, he has practiced law in our city for 17 years, and it is safe to say you have never heard his integrity questioned, and his ability is admitted by all. Handicapped as no other member of the bar, he has attained a high rank among lawyers, and has a large and profitable practice. He has served with distinction in the legislature of Ohio and made his name honored and respected throughout the state. It is apparent to all, who have paid any attention to this campaign, that Mr. Stewart is not being opposed by any person because he is not well equipped for the office, but that a disgraced effort is being introduced Mississippi politics into the Western Reserve of Ohio, the home of Wade, Glidinges, Garfield and McKinley. You doubtless endorse the position taken by President Roosevelt, and believe that in this age no good citizen can afford to discriminate against a worthy man on account of the accident of birth. Let us emulate President Roosevelt, be true to the republican doctrines, and let no man who is a republican vote against Mr. Stewart on this account. We call upon republicans who revere the name of Lincoln who now to stamp out this un-republican doctrine by electing Hon. Wm. R. Stewart to the position he is so well qualified to fill. Respectfully submitted. "A. M. Williamson, F. W. Donaldson, Anthony Whelen, Henry Klein, A. S. McCurley, H. T. Smith, J. W. Woolley." Every Negro voter in Mahoning county should vote for Mr. Stewart today (Saturday) and do so early in the day as possible. -Miss Tahibia Stanup, of Akron, is the guest of Miss Adda Davis. -Miss Eda Jackson, of Girard, entertained on Easter Mr. and Mrs. Frank Hall, Mr. and Mrs. Frank Steel and J.

Jand Academy of Sciences and has ac. complished a wonderful amount of work of a sefentific nature without any training save that given him by the learned Prof. Ughler, whose pro. tege he has been for many years. He is now engaged in arranging a collec. tion of coral gathered last summer uear Jamaica, and in this respect he is sald to be one of the best in the country and far above some of high professional standing. He first be. ‘ame learned in photography, after. ward he spent 16 years with a chem- eal and drag concern. He evinced wonderfal skill in the business, re. ceiving the commendations of those most capable to pass upon his attain- ments. Although he has held the place as helper, yet he ranks as chief in the department and has become an indis. pensable factor in the academy. He is constantly employed to look after the most intricate and responsible duties, His ability is most remarkable in the field work, and he is often sent ‘on expeditions to gather geological specimens, He served in the labra- tory 10 years and for some 18 years he has been engaged in making valuable collections of fossils, rocks, minerals, Indian relics, birds and snakes. He is consulted by the best minds in this profession and he is accredited as be. ing most reliable tn his advice and teachings. It is a matter of pride and congratulation that this eminent self. made man has reflected such high hinet and unin oie bonis.’ SERVANTS OF EACH OTHER. We are all hirelings, we are all the servants of each other. Yet men in thelr conceived notions vainly cling to the idea that self-superiority must be asserted. It is a mistake that we should assume the alrs of a master for lord, merely to please a selfish and sinful nature, By a popular vote one man may be promoted above another, but he is only a public servant. He ig not master, for traly the people are the source and makers of our power. We are to accord all men a humane fand respeetfil consideration. The prince and the bezgar alike have equal claim upon each other. One may acem himself supreme tn authority among men, but we are mere helpers im a common cause and no man has a moral right to usurp the prerogatives of another, ‘The very assumption of such an act at once disqualifies. the individual @ a lawful exercise of of- ficial functian, for he arrogated rights which were never expressed or im- plied. There is no such right in mor- als nor in nature—allowing a fellow- man, % servant, to (reat a brother man’ as an inferior. — Regardiess of conditions and responsibilities, we are all servants and have certain reserved rights, which admit of no eneroach- ment. That man's education is de- fective and seriously at fault who would for a moment expect or de- mand that any individual should un- man himself or degrade bis manhood by acknowledging himself to be the inferior of another. We are called to ct upon a principle of right and jus tice, and he 1s morally dishonest who assumes the authority to lord it over another as his Inferior. He is both a fool and a knave who arrogates ex- ceptional authority or rights which belong to no one man exclusively. yet such as all men may enjoy in common. Regardless of circumstances or con ditions, or the fortune or misfortune of another, no gentlemen, however lofty in mein, high-minded or first in rank, will allow himself to encroach upon tke rights and liberties of his countrymen. ‘The least and the Lumblest will receive a respectful care and no power or influence will bar him In rendering becoming hom. age {0 the illiterate, to the poor or to the man of letters and wealth, For we are all the servants of each other and no argument in ethics or philoso. phy, no legislative enactment, uo theo. logy can change the fact that being of fone blood and bone of each other, we fare mutually dependent, and are ser wants of each other.

Notice of appeal was given by the defendant's attorney. Sunday was rally day at Antioch church. Rev. J. S. Jackson preached. In the evening Rev. Alexander Moore a former pastor of the church, preach- ing to the church. He represented a very interesting program. There were also several very instructive papers on the different moods of prayer and its effect. Men's meeting every Tuesday evening. All young men are cordially invited to attend. Considerable adverse comment was caused all last week as a result of Joe Goodman's wife's turning in a "riot call" for the police because Luther Hall, Jr., was beating a Jew, who had cursed and struck him. There is one thing about this that our people will please notice and that is that that class of people "stick together" even if we won't. We trust our people to write the police insisting way the Press up and disictured the Luther Hall, Jr., incident. It was derivative of the race as much as of the person named. Mr. Joseph Seelig, of the New England building barber shop, who was falsely charged with a misdemeanor and taken before Judge Whalen last week, was honorably discharged by the court. Mr. Seelig desires to thank all the friends who so promptly came to his assistance. Somebody was entirely too hasty in thus accusing Mr. Seelig, who was walking along the sidewalk when the judge and was not of anyone's yard. He happened to be the first one to pass in that vicinity while the excitement was on with the result noted above. Mrs. John Adkins, living at 57 Blaine street, called at Prosecutor Keeler's office Monday to say that she wanted her son, Claude Adkins, sent to the penitentiary, "He married without my consent," said Mrs. Adkins, "and he is only 19 years old. I do not like the woman he has chosen, rather than see him and his husband would have him in the penitentiary." Adkins made his flaw that he was 21 when he gave his license Friday. His gown is given as Lida James, aged 28, 125 Bollar street. Keeler promised to investigate—Press. Herbert D. Myers, a Central high school senior, is one of the best short riddle distance runners of scholastic caliber in the state. He recently set a new mark for the indoor half-mile run for Ohio at a meet held at Central and at the same time carried off the title of school athlete. He is a member of the school debating club and participated in the craterical contest held at the institution Friday. A fine ban offered by Coach Freedman was the prize awarded the athlete, who won the greatest number of points in the recent indoor meet, and this was won by Myers. He has done well in the 100-yard dash, covering that distance in 4.5 seconds outdoors, and in 12 seconds flat outdoors, equaling the indoor record. He has also done the quarter-mile run in 55 seconds. Myers will graduate this year, will be up among the leaders of his class and will enter Case school next year. He is the son of George A. Myers. The annual parish meeting of St. Andrews' mission was held Monday evening. The report from various societies indicated good work.

Stanley clerk; Joseph Smith, treasurer; John Nochs, Edward Daw, C. F. Garland, H. T. Eubanks, G. W. Thompson, Jas Tolbert, and O. Waters.

Several important committee reports were received and the following letter from Senator Foraker was read and received with much enthusiasm: United States Senate. Washington, D. C., April 27, 1905. Hon. H. C. Smith, President The Onward Foraker Club, Cleveland, O.; Dear Sr.—I am pleased to hear of the reorganization of The Onward Foraker club, not because of the compliment to myself in the name you have adopted, but because of the testimony thus given that you and your associates in the organization are so keenly interested in the cause of republicanism as this movement indicates, I most earnestly wish you every success, not for what that may mean for our party, but because by such work you assist more than you probably appreciate to keep the door of hope open to every citizen of the republic. Please convey to the club an expression of all this, together with my best wishes, and allow me to remain with kindest regards, very truly yours OHIO LETTERS. (Continued From First Page.)

How a Woman Made a Success of the Home, Vegetable Garden Theory is the foundation, experience the finished structure. Garden books as a rule run to the theoretical side and it is up to each one of us to buy the seed and accumulate the experience, oftentimes a most expensive proposition, especially in the vegetable garden; hence when a book appears that is practical and written by an amateur who can and does raise each year all the vegetables for the home table, it is bound to receive a warm welcome. "How to Make a Vegetable Garden," by Edith Loring Fullerton, is a new book just published by Doubleday, Page & Co., New York City, at $2.00. It has over 350 pages and is profusely illustrated by half-tone reproductions of photographs taken especially for this book, which covers all phases of gardening—the breaking of the soil, fertilizing, planting, growth, cultivation and even the preparation for the table, each vegetable story covering the housewife's end of it by means of recipes for cooking and serving. Every portion of the book is thoroughly practical, being the story of personal experience from beginning to end. A very ingenious table is added, giving planting time, depth to plant, date of maturity and many most helpful hints.

Pope Brown, chairman of the Georgia railroad commission, to reduce the hour rate in Georgia from three to two cents per mile was protested against by the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, the Order of Railway Conductors, and unions of the blacksmiths, machinists and telegrapher, bollermakers, railway trainmen, carpenters and joiners, clerks and carmen. These organizations employed an attorney especially to represent them, who urged that such a reduction would work against the prosperity of the state and lead to a reduction in the number of railroad employees as well as of their wages. The Travelers' Protective association also protested that a reduction as proposed would result in few trains and poor service. Practice makes purgatory--for the neigh bors--N. O. Payayne. A Remarkable Fact about "Pusheck's Kuro" is that it does what no other medicine can do. It affects the grand trio—the Stomach, the Blood and the Lungs. Pusheck's Kuro relates the whole body, every organ and every function. It corrects the digestion of the body, it purifies and enriches the Blood, and corrects, regulates and strengthens the nerves. This explains why one medicine permanently cures so many apparently ill patients, and works on one of the organs only and cannot cure completely; Pusheck's Kuro regenerates the entire system. Good health is achieved through anything than anything else. Pusheck's Kuro will help you enjoy health, happiness and long life. This remedy is $1 at Druggists or sent from Dr. Pusheck, Chicago.

FIERCE RIOTING IN CHICAGO The Teamsters' Strike Is Marked by Desperate Fighting in the City's Streets. MANY PEOPLE ARE INJURED Vicious Attacks Are Made on Strike Breakers- and They Are Not Slow in Retaliating—Situ-ation Grows Worse Every Day. Chicago, May 1.—Twelve labor leaders, prominently identified with the teamsters' strike were indicted Saturday night by a grand jury. Each indictment contains six counts and charges the men with conspiracy. Glenwood Springs, Col., May 1.—President Roosevelt has agreed to give the Chicago striking teamsters an opportunity to present their petition when he reaches Chicago on May 10. Chicago, May 2.—Conditions in the teamsters' strike were worse Monday than at any preceding time. The strikers were more open and vicious and the attacks on non-union men were more frequent and daring than at any time since the beginning of the strike. The chief cause for the increased belligerency on the part of the strikers and their friends is the fact that the Employers' Teaming association brought 1,500 men into Chicago to take the places of strikers and 500 more will arrive to day. These men will receive the full pay of union men, and it has been guaranteed to them that their positions will be permanent. Among the strike breakers are 200 farmer boys. Chicago, May 3.—The strike situation in Chicago assumed a peculiar aspect Tuesday and the interests which have been opposing the striking teamsters are not as united as herefore. The cause of this dissension is the Team Owners' association, which has contracts with the railroads and many of the large firms throughout the city to transfer their merchandise. Until yesterday, the Employers' association and their allies were firmly bound together in the fight for supremacy against the teamsters. The Team Owners 'association, which employs none but union team-masters, refused yesterday to make deliveries to any of the firms now involved in the strike, when ordered to do so by the Employers' association. When the employers received this ultimatum, they notified the team owners that unless they agreed to discrimination be made in deliveries were granted, an effort would be made to have all existing contracts between team owners and the business houses and the railroads cancelled. This did not change their attitude, however, and they persisted in their refusal to take part in the strike. The railroad men, contrary to the hopes of the members of the Employers' association, did not exert the influence on the firms, and expected they took practically the same Judge Kohlsaat, of the United States circuit court, at the request of attorneys representing the seven express companies, issued a temporary injunction yesterday restraining all persons from interfering with the wagons of the petitioners or the men employed upon them. The fighting yesterday in the streets was even more fierce and savage than that of Monday. The strikers and their sympathizers attacked non-union men at every opportunity, assailing them with bricks, stones, clubs, knives and any other weapon upon which they could lay their hands. The fight. The wagons of the business section of the city, men being shot down within 200 feet of the retail store of Marshall Field & Co. and clubbed nearly to death at the corner of the Auditorium hotel in plain view of hundreds of ladies. Chicago, May 4—Rioting in the streets yesterday in connection with the teamsters' strike was so prolonged and so fierce that many leading business men have concluded that there will be neither peace in the city nor safety for business until the state militia has been called out to restore order. A committee of members of the Employers' association left for Springfield yesterday to confer with Gov. Deneen and to request him to give orders to the state troops. The labor unions have several representatives at the state capital and it is likely that they will also be heard before any action is taken by the governor. Chief of Police O'Neill says he has control of the situation and can keep peace in the city. Mayor Dunne supports him in this view and says the emergency has not arisen requiring the presence of troops. On the other hand, business men point to the long list of injured which marked the rioting of Tuesday and the greater number of persons hurt Wednesday, and declare that these lists of injured clone are sufficient proof that the police department is not sufficiently strong to cope with the situation.

Onomata, N. Y., May 3.—A band of masked robbers rode into the village of Gilbertsville, about 18 miles from here, at 3 o'clock Tuesday morning, blew open the modern and supposedly burglar proof safe in the private banks of E. C. Brewer and made good their escape with booty estimated at between $5,000 and $10,000. When the villagers were awakened by the muffled roar of the explosion and had been halted by the pistol fire of the retreating bandits, they found that the robbers had completely isolated Gilbertsville from the outside world by using the telegraph and telephone wires. Effort to retrieve the neighboring towns were futile and when the village folk finally started in pursuit, the robbers had gained a lead which could not be overcome. Several teams which had been stolen from the various barns and used by the robbers in their approach to the village and their subsequent flight, were found abandoned by the roadside Daylight found the bandits not far from Gilbertsville and it is believed they then left the highway and went into the woods afoot. The bold attack rivals in the details of its thoroughness, its daring and its success, the exploits of the most notorious bandit, were revealed. It is believed there were five men in the band. That all were heavily armed was shown by the frequency of their fire when the villagers arrived near the bank. The men first pried open the front door of the bank. Not a light glimmered in the village and they set about their work leisurely. Two holes were drilled into the steel doors of the new safe and into these the explosive, believed to have been nitro-glycerine was inserted. The explosion which followed wrecked the building and every window in the bank building. The robbers hastily gathered up all the money exposed by the explosion and started on a run just as the first of the awakened villagers reached the scene. Other residents quickly came up, but in the meantime the invaders were making their escape, firing as they went. A REVIEW OF ITS WORK The Inter-State Commerce Commission issued a Report as to the Washington, May 2:—In response to a resolution of inquiry adopted by the senate on January 10 concerning the number of complaints against commerce carriers filed with and disposed of by the inter-state commerce commission since its organization, the commission yesterday submitted to the senate committee on inter-state commerce a voluminous reply. The information furnished is brought down to March 1, 1905, and includes formal complaints since the organization of the commission, informal complaints since February 1, 1900, and cases which have been taken to the courts to enforce orders of the commission. Informal complaints filed prior to January 1, 1900, are not included in the report. The number of formal complaints filed with the commission from April 5, 1887, the date of its organization, to March 1, 1905, is 770; the number brought to final hearing and determined by the commission or otherwise concluded is 400; cases settled or discontinued, 206; indefinitely postponed, 74; cases heard, but not decided, 20; partially heard, 27; not heard, 43. Since January 1, 1900, 2,296 informal complaints have been filed and 2,117 disposed of by the commission. The number of cases heard and determined by the commission and taken to the courts to enforce the commission's orders is 45. In eight cases the ruling of the commission was sustained: in 29 cases the courts declined to enforce the commission's orders; four have been discontinued and four are now pending in circuit court or by implication, that the statute did not give the commission authority to make the orders sought to be enforced, in other words, that the wrongs done which constituted the grievance could not be prevented under the present law. THE IMPRINT OF A HAND It was Left in the Dust on a Window Ledge and Led to the Arrest of a Man Charged with Murder. Kalamazoo, Mich., May 3—Bert Miller, aged 29 years, who came here from Battle Creek, Mich., two weeks ago, was found dead yesterday in his bed in a room over a saloon which he rented from his aunt, Mrs. Millo Sexton. His skull had been crushed. A large file was found in the room and is believed to have been used to kill him, although there was no blood on it. In the dust on a window ledge in the room the police found the imprint of a hand with a clearly marked crooked little finger. This resulted in the arrest of Millo Sexton, or Keep, the husband of Miller's landlord, who has, it is alleged, a crooked finger said to correspond to the mark found in the dust. Mrs. Sexton secured an order from the court a week ago forbidding her husband to visit her and it is said that Miller had been living with her to protect her. The Last Chapter Is Written.

When Senator Knox was attorney general a vacancy occurred in a judicial position in the far west, and a famous Pennsylvania congressman hastened to submit the claims of a constituent, relates the Philadelphia Reporter. "I'd be glad to help you, if you have the right kind of a man," said Knox. "What we want is a man who has no fear, and will do his duty. He must be able to shoot at a beetle he may be shot at even while he's on the bench, and he must hold the respect of his community by his ability to defend himself." In contrast sort—just that kind of a man," he broke in the congressman, eagerly. "He will right the whole bar, if need be." He has resided, continued Knox, "he must be able to stand daily temptations. Somebody is apt to offer him $10,000 as he steps off the car, and $20,000 before he has dinner. That's the kind of atmosphere he will live in, and that's the kind he will meet; will your man fill the bill?" "Now I think of it," said the congressman, rising abruptly, "he won't fill the bill—he's got a wart on his trigger finger, unless I'm mistaken." A Great Discovery. Clayton) Tex.

THE END OF THE GRIP REACHED AFTER EIGHT YEARS OF COMPLICATED TROUBLES. Desafness, Hissing Sounds in Head, Stomach Disorder, Palpitation of Heart and Debility Overcome at Last. Mr. Newman certainly had a very tough time with the grip, and it is no wonder that he thinks that the remedy that cured him can't be beat. His case shows how profoundly grip poisons the system and how obstinately it resists all ordinary efforts to eradicate it. Few cases can be worse than Mr. Newman's for he had head, heart and stomach troubles combined with great weakness. He recently said: "The attack of grip which I had eight years ago left me in a very bad fix. I became nearly deaf and my head ached continually and was filled with hissing and roaring sounds. My heart fluttered and had regular running-away spells. My stomach was so sore that I could barely bear a touch on that part of my body. I had a great deal of pain in the region of my liver and the doctor said that organ was enlarged. My kidneys ached so at times that I could hardly stand." Didn't you give up and go to bed?" he was asked. "Oh, simply wouldn't. My head and my brain dragged dreadfully, but I obstinately dragged myself about, kept growing worse and finally ran down to almost nothing." "What did you do to get relief?" "First I tried a doctor, but he did me no good. Then I took all kinds of advicevised preparation but nothing proved helpful until I began to use Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. As soon as I got them I knew that I had at last hit the right remedy for my case. The very first box did more for me than anything else I had ever taken. They gave me relief right away and in three months they positively cured me. I think I was scarcely ever in better health in my life than I am at present." Mr. William A. Newman is a well-known Camden county farmer, living at Sagrada, Missouri. His case was a severe test for any remedy, but Dr. Williams' Pink Pills met every requirement. Other remedies merely drive the poison of the grip into hiding, but Dr. Williams' Pink Pills drive it out of the system. They are sold by every druggist. A TRAINED NURSE Mrs Martha Pohlman Lydia E.

The woman's Vegetable Compound at once removes such troubles. No other female medicine in the world has received such widespread and unqualified endorsement. No other medicine has such a record of cures of female troubles. The needless suffering of women from diseases peculiar to their sex is terrible to see.
