THE TWENTY-THIRD YEAR. NO. In the World of Fashion SOME SMART STYLES. If you, or any member of your family, can do fine handwork, you are most fortunate this year, for this is the day when the pushing, boastful sewing-machine must take a back seat. Hand-sewing has "come in" with a vengeance, retiring machine-made work into the background with the folk that set the pace in dress. And so the modest little woman with skill in her fingers may make for her own women folk the fashionable frocks and bloises of the day that will compare with the $30 and $20 lingerie waist purchased at the shops. A good pattern secures the right cut, the work is then the whole thing. Even the seams nowadays are made by hand, and the sewing of yards of frilling and insertion and lace. Yesterday we saw a lovely white mull trimmed with cream-colored lace and insertion, very simple lace; the work so busy we have the design so booming we voted it the prettiest blouse noticed thus far. The wearer's whole costume was worth mentioning; a white mohair skirt, a blue black silk cloak, a beautiful white ostrich feather boa, a black chip hat with one white plume, shiny black shoes and gloves. Black and white looks chic again, is particularly effective for a woman with black eyes, seems to intensify their darkness. A neat little black and white costume, easily reproduced, consisted of a plaited cloth skirt, white mull blouse, and a most attractive girdle wrap. The deep girdle was almost a coat in itself, and really became one by the addition of an upper- Fashions for the Little Ones Fashions for the Little Ones Spring days and consideration of folk at the springtime of life. How the mother loves to plan the clothes for the wee lads and lassies—at least it should be a pleasure rather than a burden, even if the pocketbook is an over slim one. Such little things can be made for a song, remnants be picked here and there and turned into guimpe and blouse and even whole frocks. Children's millinery this year is very picturesque, the granny bonnets as quaint and becoming as can be. For girls entering their teens there are half-bonnet affairs like the one shown in the accompanying illustration. The whole costume is designed for a girl 12, the dress a dark sage. Style is given by the smart collar and tie, and daintiness in the lawn frills, which may be either of pale blue or of ecrun lawn. The hat is trimmed only with ribbon, which is drawn through a cut in the rim in front and fashioned into a large rosette, ribbon falls over the hair at the back. Elbow sleeves are used for little girls' frocks even more than for the mammas—if possible everybody now appearing in cut-off sleeves. Mammals affect short coats, also do small girls affect the jaunty jacket. The reefers, so popular for some time back, hold their own still. A reefer is easy to get into, has warmth where needed, is not burdensome. Those made of cloth and trimmed with white collars and cuffs are in excellent style. Everything should be bubbable until the child is old enough to keep clean without constant reminding. There are heaps of ready-made collars at all prices, offered at the stores, and they help out a home-made garment wonderfully. Women fond of needlework will make lingerie hats for their little girls, and embroidered lawn caps for the baby. Designs for these are easily procured, and though they take considerable time to complete, they are the prettiest thing shown in children's millinery. Long-wasted linen dresses look 50 A SIAMESE BETROTHAL. In Siam the lighting of a cigar indicates a betrothal. In that country a person wishing to become engaged to a girl of his choice offers her a flower or takes a light from a cigar or cigarette if she happens to have one in her mouth; and thereupon, provided there is no impediment, steps are at once taken to arrange for the payment of the dowry. The families of the bride and bridegroom have each to provide a considerable sum. In shoulder part which was more than shoulder straps and yet not a bolero. The dainty wrap was adorned with rows of frills of narrow black ribbon, and looked quite dressy. For the ordinary summer day such a dress would be just right for comfort, the upper part being adjustable, easily slipped on or off. Black silk gloves, of course, have gone up in price now that the heavy kid ones are getting a bit warm. Time was when one could get a nice pair in elbow length for one dollar, but a few days ago we found the price had been trebled. Let us hope the mits will not follow suit; we want to keep the elbow sleeves, but do not care to spend all our substance on "hand-sheu." With the tailored street dress there is nothing in better style than a simple sailor hat trimmed with pompadour ribbon. The high crowned sailors are preferred, although many smart low-crowned ones are seen. The peacock feather craze has been carried pretty far, but of late taste has had its way, and in place of the yild long, assertive tail, we use shearer feathers used. On a gray sailor three green peacock eyes that stood out just a little from the bow at the side, really made a decorative effect that was very pleasant. Many checked materials are employed with good results. The new suspender frocks are very pretty in these check suitings, the blouse always on the lingerie order. Later we shall have something to say about a checked silk frock and mull guinea. A cool and comfortable, and many ol them will be seen this summer. They may be bought ready-made, or easily fashioned at home. The loose coat of fancy mixture is a satisfactory garment for slipping on over a washdress of an evening, and the modish ones have a certain smart manishness that miss no doubt approves highly. Lingerie hats match the frock in color with a pink chambray, a pink embroidered hat, etc. Of course the white wash-hat will look pretty with any summer costume, colored hats are merely a bit newer. Cylabria, as in many parts of India, a lighted taper or a lighted pipe betokens the acceptance of the suitor for the hand of a lady in marriage. In Siberia it is the custom that when a suitor has been accepted by a girl she presents him with a box of cigars and a pair of slippers as a sign that he is to be master in the house.

Springfield, O.-Chief of Police R.E. R'Bell, Mayor James M. Todd and Sheriff William Almoney are declared to be deserving of the severest censure in the report of the grand jury filed late April 28. They are charged with inability and apparent lack of interest when portions of the city were threatened by a mob. The jury finds that the chief spent the entire time of the riots in his office answering telephone calls instead of directing his men at the scene of the riots, and that the mayor is equally culpable for tardiness in not making any attempt to prevent the riots on the strength of his advanced information. "Had the mayor described the property amount of aliquity and violence by ordering out the millitia," says the report, "it would have been immediately available while the mob was congregating and should have been able to prevent most, if not all, of the destruction of property. We find that in direct contradiction of the law clearly and specifically defining his duties during a riot, the sheriff not only made no effort whatever to ward dispersing the mob and preserving the peace, but on the contrary exhibited such evidence of utter incompetency as to render his important office ridiculous in the estimation of the public." The jury recommends the reduction in rank of Sergent Joseph Cregar and the dismissal of Sergents W. E. Johnson and Boswell, Detective Jones and Officers Henry, Splichte, Gonder, Bradford, Keesleker, O'Brien, Dunnigan, Giblin and Bishop for exhibiting "an astounding ignorance and misconception of their duties as protectors of life and property." This recommendation as to dismissal, says the report, is likewise to apply to Inspector Warner, "our examination of whom discloses his to be an aggravated case of incompetency." The jury recommends that not only a man of experience and ability be elected as prosecuting attorney, but one who is keenly alert in the investigation and prosecution of criminals, thereby maintaining a wholesome respect for the law. The tardiness of the jury in making his report is due to the objections of Country, Prescottian, B. McGraw to this section of the report. The jury found Edward Dean guilty of murder in the first degree in the shooting of Mark M. Davies, which caused the rioting, and Preston Ladd, who confessed that Dean did the shooting, was found guilty of cutting with intent to kill and wound. COL.

C. — News leaked out last Saturday of a sensational verbal encounter between Senator Penrose, of Pennsylvania, and one-eyed Ben. Tillman, behind closed doors of the senate late Friday afternoon. It was precipitated by Mr. Penrose, chairman of the committee on postoffices and postroads, attempting to have a day fixed for taking a vote on the confirmation of B. F. Barnes as postmaster at Washington, which Tillman had been opposing. Ben. objected, and in explanation of his attitude declared that there was "considerable of the mule about him." CALLED AN ASS. "There is no need of the senator explaining what is so well known by the senate," tarty exclaimed Penrose, who has Charge of the Barnes nomination. "I am inclined to think that the senator from South Carolina is really an ass," he continued with emphasis. In a moment there was an uproar. Tillman denounced the Pennsylvania senator, and angrily threatened to expose certain things about Penrose which he said were not to his credit. The senator has his pleasurer, or else behind closed doors, or in open session," retorted Penrose. "He knows nothing of me of which I fear publicity. I have some affidavits from prominent people in South Carolina about the senator, and I will be glad to insert them in the record at the same time." Before the incident, which some feared might lead to a physical encounter, got any further, the senate adjourned. ```markdown ``` Smithfield.-Miss Viola — went to Brilliant and Steubenville Monday. -Miss Sarah Benford was out Sunday for the first time since last fall.-Mrs. Jerry — has returned from Massillon.-Mr. and Mrs. Geo.

Allen Allensworth after serving 20 years as chaplain of the 24th Infantry, U. s. Army, was recently retired from service. He was appointed by President Cleveland, his application having been on file during President Harrison's administration. Chaplain Allensworth was promoted to major June 14th, 1904. He served in the U. s. Navy from April 3, 1863, to April 4, 1865. The retiring clause of the congress act, approved April 23, 1904, gave him on retirement, April 7, this year, the grade of lieutenant colonel. He was the only chaplain in the army with a civil war record and has attained the highest rank ever held by one of the race in the regular Army. He was chaplain, Rev. Allensworth was pastor of Union Baptist church, Cincinnati. With his family, he has located at Los Angeles, California. Rev. Washington E.

Ing discriminations in the way of ac- commodations where equal rates are paid, and again showed clearly that it was more in sympathy with the south and its “Jim Crow” car treat. ment of our people than with the Af. fo-American and his friends’ efforts to secure for him the treatment on the railroad trains of the south and all over the country, every American cltizen without regard to race or color ought to receive. The time is slowly but surely coming when a suf. ficient number of our voters will re- sent this sort of treatment in the only way that will ever compel even in that august body proper recognition of our privileges and rights as clti- zens of a common country. MISTAKES OF A CRIMINAL COURT sy JUDGE. According to a leading southern ally newspaper, a prominent south. ern judge, the presiding head of the criminal court of that city and county, so often betrays an animus akin tc prejudice and unjust ruling that it be. comes a question among learned at. torneys whether his scales are wel balanced. In the emphasis of his words and phrases in reference to Afro-American prisoners he invariably signifies his wish to the jury for con- vietion or acquittal. His honor not only charges the jury, but in the case of an Afro-American he s not hidden In his desire to have the culprit con- vieted. The very emphasis and inflee Uons of the voice are indicative to the fury the will of the court. Calmly and fn moderate tones he 1s heard to say: “If, according to the law and the evt lence, you find the prisoner innocent you are bound to acquit him.” Then In strong and forceful emphasis gradu. ally taking a higher pitch, significant to a demand,“but, if on the other hand you find according to the law and the evidence the prisoner to be gulity, you must convict.” Is language ever more palpable and evident to show the Intent and motive of the court? In this respect the jury is hampered handicapped and the judge is a veri. table autocrat. It is to be deplored that such a spirit is manifested in 2 court of justice. This same judge does not attempt to conceal his own feel ings in racial discrimination. Invari. ably when addressing his Afro-Amerl can convict, his favorite words of re proot are that “there are 30,000 Ne Broes of this city like the prisoner who ought now to be in the peniten- ary.” Such language is not only in. cendiary, but it appeals to the worst passions of the baser element of whites and incites the rabble to riot: ouaness and crime, It is to be pri. sumed under the law that every man is innocent until pronounced guilty, and it betrays a malignant heart on the part of any judge to denounce and pass upon any portion of a community without indictment and trial. It is hard, very hard indeed, that a judge should insinuate his feelings of preju- ice by appeals unsustained and with. ut fair and impartial reasons. There fire bad men among all races and in all communities, yet can a presiding judge at the head of a court and, too, in a large city, even in the south, and upon his oath, consistently and truth. fully declare that a a free and civi- lized community there are 30,000 peo- ple of any race who should be con. fined in prison. GREAT MEN GIVE THEIR OPINION. Not only is it rather a late day to say that it was a mistake to give the right of suffrage to the Afro-American, ut it betrays a begrudging and un. generous spirit on the part of Amer- Jeans in the assurance given that he is succeeding far better than was expect- ed of him. I¢ goes without the saying that his progress slong all lines has been marvelous, so much so that he has become an object of envy even to those who fostered no fond hopes for bis well doing under the government. ‘The idle talk about taking the suffrage from the Afro-American 1s as non- sensical as it would be to propose the Aistranchisement of white Americans, ‘oF a it would be to nullify the right of citizens under a property qualification. will neither be denied nor abridged. In the face of the responsibility rest- ing upon the government it should be the duty of those in authority to see that the law is enforced according to the letter and spirit of the constitu. ton. Repeal of any amendment of the constitution would be a backward step and an infraction upon the pro- gressive tendency of free government. To abridge the right of political free- dom would afford license to impair the right of any citizen upon a mere tech- nicality. Like Senator Cullom, it has Jong been the opinion of some of the ‘ablest minds of the nation, that the government should apply its best en- ergies in preparing and qualifying the ‘Afro-American for the exercise of the suffrage. Having at heart the best interest of the republic and to make it indeed the pride and glory of the world, it would have discharged only a sacred duty to give its support in the uplift of all the people to a plane commensurate with the ambition and aspiration of American statesmanship. To educate the Afro-American and to render him every possible service, that he might in turn become a more helpful factor in upbuilding and strengthening the fortresses of the government, was and is to-day a duty which the nation owes to Itself. It is the duty of this government to utilize its resources and to dignity {ts name and powers to the limit of its best pos- sibilities. We cannot afford to do less than we are doing for the elevation of the masses, and there is ample room to signalize in growing splendor that true magnanimity which has rendered lustrous the American name. Suffrage to the Afro-American was not given in mogkery; it was not given grudgingly. ‘On the contrary, it was given by the people of the United States, through ‘the state legislatures acting for the people, and it would be an Impeach- ‘ment against natfonal honor to with- hold from the race that encourage- ment that means protection in common with Americans in general and which is most helpful to all citi- zens alike. He needs the inducement to live without those unjust discrimi. nations which hamper the life of man, Senator Albert J. Hopkins ‘agrees with Senator Cullom, and he repudiates the idea that the Afro. American even against terrible embar- Tasments has not progressed, or that the fifteenth amendment has not help. ed him. It is not a matter of discus. ston as to the wisdom of the fifteenth amendment. That amendment is a fundamental law of the land and he who agitates its repeal knows in his very soul that he is not only playing the part of a political trickster,” but that his motive is infamous, treacher- fous and notoriously prejudiced. It matters not whence he hails as a citi. zen, from the north or from the south, every intelligent man, whether honest for dishonest, knows that the Afro- American has not retrograded, has not in the glare of the new dawn lost in the more favoring blessings which haye come to him. The declarations of Senators Cullom and Hopkins come ‘as a voice of warning to the American people—they come as an appeal, call- ing the nation from the first appear- ‘ance of treachery to honest duty. Be ‘ing mindful of the call, {t becomes the people and the nation to regard the ‘solemn obligation which now con. fronts them and to do their full duty in keeping with the commands of Al- ‘mighty God, and irrespective of races. The Coming World is “Colored.” ‘The great British Empire is pre- dominately colored. The typical American is an Octoroon or counting the islands a mulatto; but the typical Briton Is only one-eighth white. Of the 400 millions of beings under the Union Jack only 54 millions are white. Next to them come 300 million yel- low, brown and black Asiatics, and Africa. with 40 million blacks and mixed bloods. Brothers, the coming world man is colored. For the hand- ful of whites in this world to dream that they with their present declining birth-rate ean ever inherit the earth and hold the darker millions in per- petual subjection is the wildest of wild dreams. ‘Thank God that it is.

They are innocent! the lady cried, Oh God! this is not right! But long before her voice was heard, Their souls had taken flight. But still they were not satisfied, Even for the lady's sake: In their cruel hearts the cowards cried, We'll burn them at the stake. Yes, lynching is too good for thom, Said the brutes as they piled up logs; We'll build a red hot fire, And roast the dirty biack dogs. Every man must take a hand, Went up the general cheer; "4 Come on men; don't be slow, “* Of arrest you need not fear. And soon the fire was burning bright, High up went the flames with a bound, ‘The ropes they were hanging to soon burned, ‘Then their bodies fell to the ground. Another cheer went up from the crowd ‘As the flesh from their bones did fall; Bring on more oll; bring on more logs, Seemed 10 be the general call, The Negroes’ bodies were bummed to a crisp, ‘The mob would laugh and then grin: In justice to my people, I pray, ‘What they may suffer for their sin. ‘On a statue representing justice, ‘These Jong ropes did they tie; And three Negroes were hurled into, eternity, pee innocent, were forced to die Shame on the state of Missouri, Shame on you! shame and scorn! To take the lives of three innocent men, On that bright Easter morn, No Faster sermon was heard in Springfield, No churches were decorated with flowers: ‘The town was turned into a bloody riot, While the mob walked the streets for hours. Oh God! is there no justice, For the Negroes under the sun; Must we always be persecuted and lynched, Must we always be forced to run? Is this to continue in the land of the free, That my people must die like dogs, The flesh burned from their innocent bodies, ‘Their bones thrown to the hogs? ‘Oh God in heaven, hear our prayers! We ask Thee in thy grace. To bring us relief from this terrible curse, That we may still have faith. ‘To Governor Folk we also pray, ‘That he may use his authority and time ‘To find each murderer of that mob, ‘That he may suffer for his crime. ‘The governor surely has started right, Offering reward for each murderer there, And says he will try and convict each one, And send’ them to the electric chair. Long live that noble governor, Who has promised to be our friend; We pray that he may convict them all, ‘and thus bring Jynchings to sn end. ONE NIGHT ON LAKE ERIE.

LETTER FROM TAFT Is Sent to Congress, Saying that an Additional $500,000 Is Neces- sary to Relieve Distress. Washington, D. C.—The president on Tuesday transmitted to congress a letter from Secretary Taft recom- mending the appropriation of an ad- Aitional $500,000 to meet conditions at San Francisco. | Secretary Taft's letter shows that of the $2,500,000 appropriated for the re- liet of San Francisco $2,405,238 has “been expended or contracts have been made which will consume this sum. | Secretary Taft's letter concludes “with the following recommendations: “Gen, Greely has requested that $300, (000 fn the hands of the chief quarter- “master and chief commissary at San “Francisco be expended for the pur- “chase of further supplies. T have au- thorized this expenditure on the state- ment by Gen. Gresly that of the quar- termasier’s supplies already sent to San Francisco more than $200,000 will not be used, but may be returned to the general stores of the army. It Is quite probable, however, from Gen. Greely's statement that @ larger sum will be needed in San Francisco for the purpose of continuing the pur- chase of supplies, and I therefore rec- ommend that congress be allowed to make an additional appropriation for the same purpose as already expressed. in the previous resolutions, of $500,- 000.” Maj. Gen, Greely, wiring from San ‘Franciseo to the war department, says that systematic arrangements are be- ‘ing made to distribute under Red Cross regulations clothing and other ‘ike materials to. the homeless and “destitute.

But many are going to work and will buy their meals as soon as there is a chance to get good ones at a low fg- ure, In this connection Maj. Febiger is at work establishing five kitchens where meals will be served free to destitute persons and at the price of 15 cents each to others. 1 hope that this practical relief will prove the ulti. mate solution of the food problem.

Why not give the cheery word, the truthful word that will brighten the load of a fellow burden bearer. Do we not deprive the world of a joy we might have given when we do not hasten to speak the pleasant truth? There are truths which are so joyous that it is only gladness to speak them—truths which seem to have no unpleasant side at all. Happiness is a quality of which we might obtain a larger share than usual if we determined to discover the pleasing side of the most unpleasing truths. Now if one side is always more pleasing than the other, why, the question may be asked is it not more honorable to choose always the pleasant side to present our friends. There is always more than one side to a truth. Two sides, at least can be seen, by the most simple minded person and those whose minds are complex can readily see many sides to the same question.

Butler Ex-Senator M C. Butler. Dyspepsia Is Often Caused By Catarrh of the Stomach—Peruna Relieves Catarrh of the Stomach and Is Therefore a Remedy For Dyspepsia. Hon. M. C. Butler, Ex-U. S. Senator from South Carolina for two terms, retired from Washington. Dr. Owrites to the Peruna Medicine Co., as follows: "I can recommend Peruna for dyspepsia and stomach trouble. I have been using your medicine for a short period and I feel very much relieved. It is indeed a wonderful medicine, besides a good tonic." CATARRH of the stomach is the correct name for most cases of dyspepsia. In order to cure catarrh of the stomach the catarrh must be eradicated. Only an internal catarrh remedy, such as Peruna, is available. Peruna exact meets the indications. Recommended Formula. "For a number of years requests have come to me from a multitude of grateful friends, urging that Peruna be given a slight laxative quality. I have been experimenting with a laxative addition for quite a length of time, and now feel gratified to announce to the friends of Peruna that I have incorporated such a quality in the medicine which, in my opinion, can only enhance its well-known beneficial character.

PENSIONS Brander at Chicago, Cleveland, Dearborn KANSAS MAN Tells of Bribery of Railroad Employes. BY STANDARD OIL He Says that a 200-Gallon Load of Oil "Expanded" So as to Produce the Price for 208. Chicago, Ill.—Corruption of railroad employees and agents of independent oil companies, dishonest methods of procuring land leases, the giving of short measure and the selling of three kinds of oil out of the same tank, were charged against the Standard Oil Co. a- Thursday's hearing before the inter-state commerce commission. The inquiry is held under an order of congress and the session was along the lines followed some time ago in Kansas City. The principal witness was E. M. Wittho, of Springfield, Mo., formerly for ten years agent of the Standard Oil Co. at Topeka, Kan. He made the charges of bribery and dishonesty against the company and said that the Frisco road discriminated in favor of the Standard Oil Co. Mr. Wittho testified that while in the employ of the Standard he had, in following out instructions of his superior officers, bribed clerks in the offices of railroads and employees of independent oil concerns to obtain information of the details of the business done by rivals of the Standard. He said that the actual tests of the products of the Standard Oil Co. to determine the quality are carefully guarded, and that when it was found necessary to cut the price to meet the figure of a competitor, a cheaper quality of oil was substituted, and guaranteed to be of a higher grade than it really was. H. C. Deren, of Fremont, O., was the second witness. He said that the Standard Oil Co. of Ohio, Buckeye County, of Montana, of Standard Republic Oil Co. were all subsidiaries of the Standard Oil Co. and had used various methods in obtaining from farmers the leases of oil lands. He declared that they led the farmer to believe that competition existed between the companies, when in fact there was none. A WARNING. Mischief Makers in Panama Will Not be Allowed to Start Revolutions. Washington, D. C.—Revolutionary movements or election troubles in Panama which in any way interfere with work on the canal zone justify the interference of the United States in support of the Panama government. Such is the tenor of instructions Gov. Magoon of the canal zone to Secretary Gavin, who alsoMittened to Gov. Magoon a letter from Secretary Root setting forth in detail what is stated to be the justification of American interference in case of disorder in any part of Panama. This emphatic setting forth of the position of the United States, it is believed, will prevent serious trouble at the elections to be held in June. As Secretary Taft makes it clear that any disorder in the republic will hinder canal work, his letter will be doubly discouraging to opponents of President Amador, who are reported to have been planning a movement against him outside of the canal zone, believing that the United States would not suppress any insurrection unless it extends within the zone. RUSSIAN PARLIAMENT MEETS Emperor's Speech Was Not Well Received by People's Representatives. St. Petersburg, Russia. Without a single hitch and with only a minor incident to mar the memorable day, the Russian parliament was inaugurated Thursday. The weather was superb and the stage management of the impressive ceremony at the Winter palace, where Emperor Nicholas, surrounded by courtiers and all the pomp and panoply of power, delivered the speech from the throne to the members of the two houses, was perfect. The cordial tone of the sovereign in renewing his pledges and asking the co-operation of parliament for the re-entry of the country was only negatively satisfactory. Courtiers and spectators other than members of the parliament led the cheering, but the members were ominously silent, expressing neither approval nor disapproval. What rankled most was the failure of the emperor to mention amnesty. Congress. Washington.—On the 10th the senate completed consideration of the second section of the railroad rate bill and made a number of important changes in that section.

The Corn Broom Few women in this age believe that the broom is better than the Bissell sweeper, but there are many who think it is more economical. Just figure it out for yourself. A Bissell will last longer than fifty coat brooms that cost not less than $15.00. A Bissell can be bought at $2.50 to $5.00. Beyond the great economy in direct cost of the Bissell, just consider how it saves time, labor and health, does the work in one-quarter of the time, with 95% less effort than the corn broom requires, makes no noise, raises no dust, and an invalid can use it.

WORDS WRONGLY USED. Never used the word "liable" when you mean "likely." Do not say, for instance, that "he is liable to come in at any moment." "Liable" implies misfortune, and means "exposed to," "subject to," "in danger of." Why do most of us speak of "unraveling a mystery?" Any good dictionary shows that "ravel" means to "unweave." You "ravel" a mystery, therefore, when you solve it. In "Hamlet," Shakespeare says: "Make you to travel all this matter out." If you and your friend Smith know a man called Jones, do not speak to Smith of "our mutual friend"—meaning Jones. Jones is your common friend. If you are friendly to Smith, and Smith is friendly to you, you and Smith are "mutual friends"; but that is the only sense in which the term may rightly be used. FREAKS OF FORTUNE. Ulysses Grant would not have been a military man had it not been that his rival for a West Point cadetship had been found to have six toes on each foot instead of five. Oliver Cromwell was once on board a ship bound for America, but he was taken back by a constable, and the result was that he became one of the greatest men England ever knew. Abraham Lincoln, after being a member of congress, desired to secure a clerkship in Washington, but he was defeated by Justin Butterfield. He was disappointed, but had he not been defeated he would have spent his life in obscurity instead of becoming president of the United States. REPAIRING BRAIN A Certain Way by Food. Every minister, lawyer, journalist, physician, author or business man is forced under pressure of modern conditions to the active and sometimes overactive use of the brain. Analysis of the excreta thrown out by the pores shows that brain work breaks down the phosphate of potash, separating it from its heavier companion, albumen, and plain common sense teaches that this elemental principle must be introduced into the body anew each day, if we would replace the loss and rebuild the brain tissue. We know that the phosphate of potash, as presented in certain field grains, has an affinity for albumen and that is the only way gray matter in the brain can be built. It will not answer to take the crude phosphate of potash of the drug shop, for nature rejects it. The elemental mineral must be presented through food directly from nature's laboratory. These facts have been made use of in the manufacture of Grape-Nuts, and any brain worker can prove the value of the proper selection of food by making free use of Grape-Nuts for ten days or two weeks.
