THE TWENTY-THIRD YEAR. NO. 4. Concerning Fall Fashions Concerning Fall Fashions STREET COSTUMES. HERE will be the fall suit whose details match, there will be the separate coat to wear with gowns generally. A feature, however, it seems safe to prophesy, of the season will be that my lady pay less and less attention to coat and jacket of the same material. Which makes for economy as well as variety. The three-piece suit is attractive to so many that it will remain in vogue for some time, and very good models are being shown; the skirts, for morning wear, short enough to escape the ground, the waist of silk, the coat and length one may choose very short and of Eton style, long and plain, or a basqued affair with fancy waistcoat. Skirts for dressy wear are long but without a train. Broadcloth will continue in fashion, and this is a material, if the color is right, that can be worn at any hour of the day. Colors now, rather than stuffs seem determine whether not a garment fits the same color. Broadcloth answers the purpose for a gown on which many demands are to be made, although it has the drawback of being conspicuous, both weaker and observers the sooner growin' weir of it. The perfectly plain circular skirt is the thing, but it takes an artist to make it hang well, set just right; when the perfection is attained there is nothing better to be had in the way of a skirt. The upper part of the costume bears the trimming, we shall have again this year the rich, contrasting vest, the revers, the fancy collar. Blue keeps its popularity, probably because it is the least trying of colors. Cream color is well liked, and the use of a bit of a dress or a bit of white about a dress. The question as to whether black will be fashionable in itself is hard to answer; we are in- Many Frills and Furbelows ERTAIN of our gowns are very plain and tailory, others are adorned with numberless frills. House dresses are putting on ruffles, going in for airy nothingness; not a few street dresses are bedecked with yards and yards of gathered lace or batiste. Over in London they are putting forth befilled shirt-waists. As yet these waists have not appeared here, but it is safe to say they will land ere long. A pretty turquois-blue silk waist that was designed for a card party, had in its make-up something less than five yards of silk and something over 20 yards of lace. It was fashioned with suspenders of the tafeta, and both waist and straps were edged with frills, very narrow and full. Turquois buttons added to this blouse the metallic note which promises to be so much in evidence the coming season. A good authority makes declaration that metallic colors will be much worn, and metallic trimming much in vogue. Mention is given of suits of gold color, of brass-colored cloth, of gowns of gun-metal gray and nickel gray, silks that come in a variety of metal colors, leather ornamented with glitter, buttons of enamel and metal, great stones inlet in stomacher-wide girdles and in narrower belts. We are to glitter as well as be be-ruffled. It is doubtful if evening dress will depart so radically from day dress as to give up the sheath-like skirt for one flounced to the waist; but there are some signs that threaten this wide divergence. One should be slow though to go in for eccentricity, a marked change from what has obtained in the world of fashion. Be not too quick to lay the old aside is wise advice as well as the companion piece that one cling not too jealously to ancient forms. One thing we must look upon now as ancient form is the sloping shoulder, its day is over. Nevertheless a capsort of trimming, which certainly gives breadth to the shoulders, is coming in, promises to be worn on walens as well as wraps. Over in Paris hats with very high crowns have blossomed forth, but knowing ones declare they will be a T C clined to say that for street wear, no. For afternoon and evening affairs the spangled thin black waist will appear; and by the way, a waist of this kind is a valuable portion of almost any woman's wardrobe—but there are some that never, never should put on the somber black, it makes them look aged and sallow and forlorn. The many, however, can wear a fussed up sheer waist, and the plump, fair woman can do no better than invest in one with a detachable yoke; wear the blouse decollette for formal affairs, for evening at theaters or restaurant and for afternoon reception, make use of the high neck. A very fetching costume lately came to my notice. It was of Alice blue cloth, fine and smooth, the skirt accompanied by a waistband, untrimmed. The jacket was short and tight fitting, the hat a turban trimmed with a dash of scarlet. Another blue costume I liked even better; one of bluette taffeta, with a waist of the same. Worn with this along red-ingote of black taffeta, lapels embroidered in blue and the turn-over collar of blue taffeta. The hat matched the costume, being of black with trimming of blue plumes. It was quietly elegant, a reposeful ensemble. White, once banished so completely from woman's neckwear, is in highest favor, and is immensely becoming. White Vs are introduced back and front of waist at the neck, white vestes are worn, much white fluffiness. Black velvet is as becoming as the white fluffiness, and it also is well to the fore. By the way, we may mention here a beautiful cloak but so luxurious as not meant for daily needs. It is meant of strips of velvet ribbon of riches black alternating with cream insertion; of three-quarter lengths and the sleeves voluminous, the wrap is of generous aspect. 1 long time in winning acceptance here. The small and medium sized shape will be worn the coming season, and doubtless the picture hat will adorn the head of many a girl that thinks she is of the Gibson class. We are repeatedly told that the picture hat is banished, and repeatedly we see it waving its wreathed plumes. We noticed one the other day that seemed to fit well with the costume and weared thereof; the gown was a black and white striped ribbon, the effect really gray; girdle, ruche, and hat were black. It was Frenchy and becoming, relieved by a square neck and sleeve-puffs of creamy lace. One pretty summery dress, the sort that will be worn yet when winter fires are burning, was made of shimmery light stuff, but the sash, which reached to the bottom of the dress, was black and black velvet ribbon adorned the big white hat. A dozen small ruffles close to the hem of the gown, made great fulness about the ankles, but the skirt fitted close about the hips. And this style we think will prevail over the flounced-to-the-top skirt. It certainly is more shapely, more generally becoming. ELLEN OSMONDE In Union There Is Strength.

EARTH TREMBLED WHEN THE ENGLISH AND FRENCH WARSHIPS' THOUSANDS OF GUNS Belched Forth the Royal Salute Recently—Negroes in England at the Baptist World's Congress—An Intensely Interesting Letter. London, England, Aug. 8, 1905. Hon. Harry C. Smith, Editor The Gazette, Dear Sir and Friend. Doubtless a few words from this English capital will prove interesting to your thousands of weekly readers. I was appointed fraternal delegate by Rt. Rev. J. C. Caldwell to represent the Tenth Episcopal district, A. M. E. Zion church, in the great Baptist world congress which convened on the 11th ult. in Royal Exeter hall, on the Strand, Dr. Alexander MacClaren, president of the congress; Rev. John Clifford, vice chairman, and Rev. J. H. Shapleshare, secretary. Many able men from all over the world were in attendance, with a small sprinkling of Negro brethren from the United States. The sessions were very interesting and closed with a great mass meeting at Royal Albert hall, whose seating capacity accommodated 10,000 persons. On July 21 we were dined by the Russian delegates at a first-class hotel. Two Russian barons presided and toasts were offered through interpreters. On the 23d I preached for the Russians through an interpreter and took tea with them after the services. A Russian baron and his three daughters were present and invited me to St. Petersburg. On Friday I was made an honorary member of the "London, England, Press club" and the "Institute of Journalists." The latter is a very exclusive organization and has enrolled among its members such distinguished men as King Edward VII, Ambassadors Chote and Reid, the Prince of Wales, etc. I was admitted on papers granted me by such men as the Hon. John A. McElvaine, president judge 27th judicial district, Hon. E. A. Acheson, congressman 24th district, Pa., and many newspaper editors and bankers of the U. S. A. I am now arranging to tell the English people at the Hull, England square, in a lecture, "What the New Has Done for the United States of America." In a letter from the chief secretary of the American embassy, Hon. Whitlaw Reid has signified his willingness to preside. On last Friday I was admitted to parliament and permitted to sit in the press gallery through the courtesy of Lord Erroll, of 20 Buckingham Palace. I hope to secure many subscribers for your great newspaper, The Gazette, the race's friend. It has been a great help and given much encouragement in my work. In my next letter I will tell you of the educated African here. What he does and what he thinks. Very truly. M. F. A. Easton, D. D.

Dixon, the one-time invincible featherweight, is back in New York after an absence of three years in England. His home-coming was far from being like the occasion of his arrival from abroad after he had won the bantam title of England from Nunce Wallace about 15 years ago. Dixon has engaged in about 60 fights in England, or an average of 20 a year. Out of these 60 mills the ex-champion only lost one, and that was with Owen Moran, the Birmingham bantam, who was in America last season. The majority Dixon's mills were draws. All the fighters he had against England only netted him about $1,500. In his hey-day Dixon got twice as much for a four-round bout, and sometimes spent this sum in less than two weeks. "The fighting game is down and out in England just now," said Dixon. "However, I haven't got any cause to complain. I was treated right by everyone. I am glad to get back to America again, although England is all right, too. Will I continue fighting? Well, there is nothing else for me to do, is there? I'm broke and 'must make my living at something.'" MR. HARRY BERNSTEIN. Candidate for the Republican Nomination as a Councilman-at-Large.

WOMEN ON THE ROCK PILE. One of the very disgraceful things practiced in the south is that of placing women on the rock pile. The law may punish, it may humiliate, but it never was designed to degrade a citizen; it certainly does not design to degrade woman. Punishment may be severe but it must have a corresponding relation to the object upon which it is inflicted. A man endures hardships commensurate with his physical strength, but it would be an outrage to require a woman to bear similar burdens. Nowhere under our civil government is it designed that a woman shall assume equal physical burdens with man. American chivalry and American honor protest against the shocking barbarity and the merest tendency to degrade the sacredness of true womanhood. She stands as the fair goddess of all that is dear and sacred to man and nowhere in all Christendom has the standard of human excellence been more highly revered and exalted than in woman. Then to demand her degradation by placing her on the rock pile becomes to be tolerated in a civilized and Christian land. It is an encroachment upon the name of sister, the cause and wife of he is a friend, the cause and wife of he enforces such a regulation in any community. Let the circumstances be what they may, but let it be remembered that to degrade woman, man degrades himself, and that she being the hope and jewel of life, he blights the fairest flower known to the human family. In the vast and ancient Orient, man first began a crusade of oppression against woman. It was a hopeless period from the beginning, for the old world has long felt the touch of the hand which smote it and bound it in many sufferings and woes. It profited the nations nothing. It rather delayed them in their rise to greatness and a higher civilization; for woman is the mother of mankind and whatever forces are applied to impair the standard of womanhood, serves only to lower the scale of humanity. But today we witness a sad picture of sorrow and distress along lines of our brightest civilization. Americans in their discrimination place Afro-American women on the rock pile, while no word of protest is heard from those who would promote the cause of elevation. UNGRATEFUL REPUBLICANS. proven themselves most worthy exceptions to this practice, but the country knows the men who have inspired hopes only to betray them. We offer an instance in Tennessee where a capable and prominent Afro-American asked to be appointed surveyor of customs for the port of Memphis. No applicant was better recommended for the position. He was endorsed by the governors of Ohio and Pennsylvania and by many of the strong white republicans of the state. The probability was that the "colored" applicant would win. Unexpectedly a white citizen from the far northwest was appointed to the place. Upon inquiry the new appointee disclaimed ever having asked for the appointment; but that being called by President McKinley, he surrendered a very lucrative post at the special request of the executive. The Afro-American had previously addressed a personal letter to a prominent leader from this state, then in the house of representatives, Washington, D. C., entreating him to remember and favor Afro-Americans sometimes in their petitions. In but wild astonishment, he received the following reply: "Don't tell me that I must support a man on account of his color." Such words were simply a bold elevation on the part of that member for although he still holds a seat in the nation's congress, voted there by the suffrages of black men, we are reliably informed that it was through his influence that the present surveyor of customs at Memphis was called to fill the position. Elected now for more than two score years to a place in congress by the suffrages of black men, yet his plea against the Afro-American as addressed to Mr. McKinley was: "We must eliminate the Negro from holding office in the states. It is better for the country that he be sent abroad." This is the ungrateful plea of many republican officials today who content themselves with their own gains to the rejection of those who have stood by them. It has been the plea of many ungrateful republicans—it is the plea of the lilys whites in all sections. But republicans still need us.

The article on "Cleveland and Its Colored People" in the Colored American magazine for last month was quite interesting but it fell short of our expectation because many of the real public spirited men and women of Cleveland who stand for the best type of manhood and womanhood were not mentioned; in writing articles of places and their people one should be very careful. Why was the Hon. Harry C. Smith not mentioned in the article? This gentleman has done more for his people, not only in Cleveland, but the state of Ohio, than any Negro mentioned in the essay of Mrs. Carrie Clifford. Hon. Smith conducts the best race paper in Cleveland and his state and yet not a word was said of him; not that he cares but we who know the man and his worth, consider it an insult to his people. We could name more than a dozen people. We could name more than a worth should have been mentioned in the article. Do not think that the people do not know anything of the places and the people of the same of which you write. We travel and we read; sometimes we know more about what you have written than you do yourself.

Second: Defendant has been guilty of wilful absence from the plaintiff for over three years last past, in this that for five years last past defendant has lived away from the plaintiff, after she left him without any cause or provocation on his part. Wherefore plaintiff prays that he be divorced from defendant, recover such other and further relief as the court finds proper. H. I. EMERSON.

Was Fast Drifting Into the Fatal Stages of Kidney Sickness. Dr. Melvin M. Page, Page Optical Co., Erie, Pa., writes: "Taking too many iced drinks in New York in 1995 sent me home with a terrible attack of kidney trouble. I had acute congestion, sharp pain in the back, headaches and attacks of dizziness. My eyes gave out, and with the laxity and leaseness of the disease upon me I wasted from 194 to 122 pounds. At the time I started using Doan's kidney Pills sharp pain in the back, headaches and attacks of dizziness. My eyes gave out, and with the languor and sleeplessness of the disease upon me I wasted from 194 to 123 pounds. At the time I started using Doan's Kidney Pills an abscess was forming on my right kidney. The trouble was quickly checked, however, and the treatment cured me, so that I have been well since 1896 and weigh 188 pounds." Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. For sale by all druggists.

Y., Atlanta, Ga., IA, Crook, Ws., Texarkana, Tex., San Francisco, Ch. MARGARET FAREL was the only patient who knew how to turn in bed without rattling the springs, and thereby waking some of the other occupants of the ward. The night nurse was delighted. Dr. Brooks had made his rounds and for once she gave a good report. What a blessing to have at last a quiet patient in that dreadful cot! She sat down by the desk and began to study her lectures with renewed energy. Then her trained ear caught the sound of a faint sigh—and she was by Miss Farel's side immediately. "I told the doctor" there was disappointment in her tone, "that all of the patients were sleeped." "I heard you." He motioned particularly to your bed and seemed so pleased at its stillness. "I am rarely boisterous," Miss Farel's voice quivered slightly with laughter. "Haven't you been asleep?" "No." "Are you in pain?" "I would not be here unless I had pain." Again the voice was humorous, "Do you wish anything?" "O, yes!" "What?" "It would take too long a time to enumerate." "I mean do you wish me to do anything for you?" "O! Not just now, thank you." "Then goodnight, and pleasant dreams." "Thank you, I prefer not to dream at all." Miss Farel laughed softly to her self. "No doubt," thought she, "that interne thinks I am the hysterical patient who formerly occupied this bed. How annoying she must have been. I suspect she will soon tire of my old room; hysterical people are so whimsical." When Dr. Chesedine, one of the hospital chiefs, and Miss Farel's medical adviser, recommended the "Pressbyterian" to her, she would not consent to be taken there until she had his pledge that he would tell no one that she was a trained nurse. She knew how partial the nurse: were to the profession, and she did not intend any distinction to be made between herself and the other patients. Nevertheless, Dr. Cheseldine often talked to her in a confidential manner, quite different from that usually adopted between doctor and patient. (It was from him that she learned of the hysterical young woman: who was also under his care). He sometimes asked her advice, and even followed it, concerning this case. "Put her by herself until she learns self-control. She will upset everybody in the ward," she told him. "There are no vacancies just now." "Then, as I am so much better, and am tired of being alone, she may have this room." Unfortunately, the day of Miss Farel's re-valued was the time for the customary change of internes and nurses which the superintendent ordered to take place every three months, that they mght have experience in the different wards. In some unaccountable way, no note was made of the exchange of these two of Dr. Cheseldine's patients. The next morning a new day nurse brought Miss Farel a powder. "I haven't taken any medicine before breakfast since I entered the hospital," remarked Miss Farel. "We know that." The day nurse thought she understood the case "But you must take this to-day." "Are you not mistaken?" insisted Miss Farel. "I have never yet been mistaken about my orders." The day nurse was pleasant and firm. "Then this is the first time, maybe," and Miss Farel smiled. "The doctor told me to call him should you refuse this." The day nurse was getting impatient. "Has the doctor changed my treatment?" "Take this one, please. I shall have to call the doctor if you do not." "Then call the doctor!." Miss Farel was amused. She saw that she was taken for the predecessor and her eyes winked merrily. "She had such a quiet night, I hoped it would be unnecessary to carry out Dr. Chesseldine's order, 'he muttered as he walked down the corridor attended by the two nurses. When the screen was drawn around Miss Farel's bed Dr. Brooks said gently: 'Take this now; it is not worth making a fuss over." "But I wish to know first if my treatment has been changed?" "Surely, this patient could not be the cause of so much trouble in the ward! We wanted t: do something rash to Dr. Cheredine—the brute—for having given him such a job! But how could he be a conscientious ph The merriment in her eyes gave place to such a threatening glow that the atmosphere of the ward seemed heavy with its influence. Dr. Brooks disappeared. The head nurse wiped the patient's face and, making her comfortable, persuasively remarked: "The doctor will return presently with your medicine. Do take it." "You will please tell Dr. Chesoldine, as soon as he comes, that Miss Farel wished him." The head nurse turned sharply, Well-disciplined though she was, she could not stifle an exclamation at the name, "Miss Farel!" "Could a mistake have been made?" She studied the chart which hung on the T at the head of the bed, then looked carefully at its occupant. Replacing the chart, she hastily left the room. It did not take long for the mistake to become known to the members of the hospital staff. The offending interne was greatly mortified. Day after day he sent some token of apology—books, flowers, fruit. It became the aim of his life to win her favor, and he asked several times during the weeks which followed if she had forgiven him. She invariably answered, "Not quite!" Meanwhile her sunny nature diffused its warmth everywhere. When a probationer limped through the ward, with feet swollen by the unacustomed number of steps taken, Miss Faerl wished to know if were the latest fad in walking, and many a time the frown on a fretful patient's face would disappear as she repeated silly couplets. Dr. Chesedine often said her life was saved by means of her temperament more than by anything he had done for ner. One day, when the hyacinths were blooming in the white-rocked crescent which adorned the yard, she was sitting by her window. She had pushed aside the sash curtain to watch the janitor water the lawn, as Dr. Cheseline approached with a note in hand which he gave the man to take to some one up stairs. "Just leave your hose where it is," he said, "until you get back." Then beckoning to Miss Farel, he whispered. Now is your chance. It is almost time for Dr. Brooks to go through the ward. He is in the laboratory, and will be here in a little white." He gave the hose a kick which landed it under the window, and with a knowing glance, retired. Miss Farel's eyes were exultant. She drew the curtain four-fifths of its breadth across the window and waited. Dr. Brooks, in new suit, whiter than a signpost, sauntered across the lawn. When he reached the flower bed he looked at his watch, and then walked around the crescent admiring the flowers. When his back was opposite to Miss Farel she pushed aside the sash curtain, leaned far from the window, and picking up the hose, sent forth a column of water full force the length of the doctor's spine. As she drew back convulsed with inward laughter, she heard a shower of imprecations descend upon the janitor, who returned in time to resume his work, just as Dr. Brooks whirled about to see what had struck him. And while the disconcerted interne was busily changing his costume Dr. Chesseldine went through the ward, wondering aloud, as he reached Miss Farel's side, what made Dr. Brooks so late. A few days later Miss Farel was well enough to walk out in the yard. As she stood by the flower bed Dr. Brooks approached silently, his rubber heels making no noise on the soft turf. "You almost make me believe you have forgotten that awful mistake." "Why should you think of it any more? We are even." The last word was said forcibly, and she looked down. "Even!" he echeed. "What do you mean?" "I simply mean what I said—that we are now even." There was more force on the word "even," and she continued to look down. "Do you mean that you have got even with me, who you have made me love you with all my heart? Even, when by your gentleness, your loveliness, you have won the title of the level of the Ward?" Even, when I know you will never care for me, and that now since you are soon to leave—" "Don't rave so! Everybody will be looking at us!" Miss Farel looked up; her eyes were glorious. "Margaret!" "Maybe you will not forgive me when I tell you it was I who gave you the impromptu Scotch douche!" "You!" "Yes. That is all I meant by accenting that little word." "O. Margaret!" "There . . . I will stand as close to you as I dare in public, but you must not touch me here, you know." The next day Miss Farel and Dr. Brooks were again among the hyacinths. Presently he asked: "Where did you learn to throw such a straight hose?" "I have given many hydro-therapeutic baths," she spoke very slowly and her eyes were merrier than ever. "I was the head nurse in Dr. Chesslidine's private sanitarium."—Boston Globe. The Camellia. The flowering evergreen, camellia was brought from Japan by a Spanish Jesuit named Kamel; hence the name. WILL NOT PAY WAR TRIBUTE Russia's Representative. M. Wittle Refuses to Accept President Roosevelt's Compromise. WILL MEET AGAIN ON SATURDAY The Outlook is Black, but President Roosevelt Sent Ambassador Meyer Portsmouth, N. H., Aug. 24—The Japanese plenipotentiaries at the conclusion of the afternoon session yesterday of the peace conference threw the cards upon the table. It was the drastic moment—the moment to which all the previous proceedings of the conference had led. The protocols involving agreement upon eight of the 12 conditions originally presented by Japan had been signed. One side or the other must make a move or the plenipotentiaries had reached the parting of the ways. The adversaries faced each other across the table. Of course it was well understood what would happen, but that in a way only made it more dramatic. Figuratively, President Roosevelt suddenly entered the conference room. Mr. Witte sat silent and the move in the great diplomatic game passed to Japan. Baron Komura in a few words explained that Japan in her great desire for peace was ready to make certain "modifications" of the original articles in the hope that Russia could find it possible to accept them. He then presented in writing to Mr. Witte the compromise proposition which President Roosevelt had suggested. The proposal accepted, and specific and followed the lines outlined in these dispatches. It offered to withdraw article 9, providing for the payment by Russia of Japan's bill for the cost of war, on condition that Russia would accept article 5, which provides for the cession of the island of Sakhalin, so modified as to include an arrangement for the repurchase by Russia of the northern half of the island for 1,200,000 yen. In addition it offered to withdraw entirely articles 11 and 12 (surrender of the intermed warships and limitation upon Russia's sea power in the far east). It was President Roosevelt who made the decision. Witte knew its contents as well as Baron Komura. The question of whether he had been "bluffing" was put to the test. Without a moment's hesitation Mr. Witte explained that the modification proposed was merely a sham, a change of phraseology, a diplomatic attempt to "dorer la pluhlu" and ask Russia to pay war tribute under another name. He could not accept it. He told Baron Komura Russia wanted peace. She could not accept it. In addition, every article involving the issues upon which the war was fought, but she could fight and money for tribute she would not pay, a no copa. He asked Baron Komura to withdraw all demands for tribute. And so the plenl-potentiaries separated, to meet again on Saturday, ostensibly to permit Mr. Witte to place in writing, as the rules of the conference require, his reply to Japanese compromise, in order to maintain agreement over the two days was to give each side an opportunity to consult its government for the last time. The outlook is black; many believe it was never so black as last night. The Japanese are not talking. Indeed, last night they appeared to be more taciturn and more resolute than ever. The only possible line of further Japanese concession is considered to lie in the presence of elimination of the amount of the purchase money demanded for the north half of Sakhalin. The decision rests, therefore, as it has from the first, with Russia. Private advices from St. Petersburg say that sentiment there, in Moscow and other large centers favors acceptance of the compromise. This may mean much. But the real hope still rests with President Roosevelt. He is resourced. He has made another direct He has sent Ambassador Meyer direct to the emperor and they were together, according to advices received here, for three hours yesterday.

WHAT DID THE CATCHER SAY? It was the last half of the ninth. The pitcher had gone up in the air, and the bases were as tall as three goats, resting on the ground. The score was 5-4 in favor of the team in the field. A single would tie the score. A two-bagger would win the game. Two men had fired out, and the man at bat had to run to him. It was a crucial moment. And, as we say, the pitcher was rattled. Suddenly the pitcher held up his hand. He held up. He removed his wire mask and stepped toward the pitcher, who advanced to meet him. With mouth close to the pitcher's car the catcher whispered something. What it was no one heard but the pitcher, who returned to the box. "I'll stand across the plate. 'Strike three' cried the umpire. The pitcher had saved the day. Now, then, the thing we want to know is the What did the catcher say to the pitcher? The Reason Why.

Perhaps Plain Old Meat, Potatoes and Bread May Be Against You for a Time. A change to the right kind of food can lift one from a sick bed. A lady in Welden, ill, says: "Last Spring I became bed-fast with severe stomach trouble accompanied by sick headache. I got worse and worse until I became so low I could scarcely retain any food at all, although I tried every kind. I had become completely discouraged, had given up all hope and thought I was doomed to starve to death, till one day my husband trying to find something I could retain brought home some Grape-Nuts. "To my surprise the food agreed with me, digested perfectly and without distress. I began to gain strength at once, my flesh (which had been flabby) grew firmer, my health improved in every way and every day, and in a very few weeks I gained 20 pounds in weight. I liked Grape-Nuts so well that for 4 months I ate no other food, and always felt as well satisfied after eating as if I had sat down to a fine banquet. "I had no return of the miserable sick stomach nor of the headaches, that I used to have when I ate other food. I am now a well woman, doing all my own work again, and feel that life is worth living. "Grape-Nuts food has been a godsend to my family; it surely saved my life and my two little boys have thriven on it wonderfully." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. There's a reason.

"Where Ignorance Is Bliss 'Tis Folly to Be Wise" In some parts of the world they still use a sharp stick and a cow to plough their fields and goodness only knows how they can ever make that kind of agriculture pay, even where labor is cheap. In many parts of this glorious upbraid the country the woman still make abject forms of themselves over the wash-tub, the same as their great, great grandmothers did more than a century ago. In the one instance, the antiquated heathen doesn't know a plough from a pumpkin and would be afraid to use one if he did.
