THE Some Summer Fancies in Dress As to Hats, Gloves and Neckwear What a rage for white there has been this summer. White gowns, white shoes, white hats and veils, and, shall we say it—even white faces, for no longer is the beaming face of old Sol courted for that delicious tan that erstwhile so popular. Much as I dislike the lily whiteness, it nevertheless is true that it is not considered correct at this season of the year to have more than the faintest tinge of color in the cheeks. And the ultra-fashionable woman exploits a complexion of ivory, dusted with pearl powder. It is not expected that women shall be quite reasonable, and so no one—unless it be an unregenerate man—will be surprised when I say that the very latest fad is white mourning. Of course this is not really a novelty. The women mourn in white at least one European capital, but in France it will be a very real change, for there the robes of sombre crepe hold rigid sway. But this new idea of white mourning comes from Paris, and it is hard to say just at present whether the idea will obtain favor with the women who control the fashions, but a famous dressmaker is strongly advocating the innovation, and already pure white crepe gowns, accompanied by pure white crepe toques, with long veils hanging at the back, are to be seen. But to turn from so somber a subject. Vells are playing a very important role in the world of dress this summer. They are long, extremely voluminous, and of every possible tint. The very latest novelty is a Turkish arrangement of lengths of chiffon-tulle. Two distinct vells are worn, one to cover the hat and forehead and the other the lower part of the face from the nose down. It is a truly hideous arrangement, but a perfect disguise. Your best friend would not recognize you in a "Newport veil." Tailored costumes in a soft rose Irish linen are much fancied this season and the biscuit and brown linens have a great vogue. As to the dress accessories for fall wear there are several striking innovations. One which promises to meet with success is the Peter Pan hat. During the summer this shape found much favor in straw, and now it is to take its place as a winter article. The Peter Pan is somewhat similar to a Scotch cap, being long and narrow, with a dent in the crown. These hats for winter wear will be of felt or velvet, although other material may be used. For trimming wings The Voile Dress. are in favor and quilts will also be used. Silk gloves are unquestionably going to be worn very much this winter, especially for evening wear, which of course means long gloves. Black and white will be the favorite colors, although the light colors will be in demand. In Union There is Strength. The ever faithful blouse is always in favor, and finds a large place in my lady's wardrobe. Three of unusually pretty design are shown in our illustration. They may be copied in any of the dainty thin materials that are to be purchased this summer. Muslin, cotton volle, mercerized lawn, and cambric are all inexpensive and from them and by the aid of a little lace trimming any of these designs may be made. The first is in gray cotton volle spotted with a darker shade. The yoke is composed of horizontal puffs of the volle and cream lace insertion, straps of the insertion coming over the shoulders. The elbow sleeves are gathered up under a band of insertion, and are finished with pleatings of volle. It takes about two and one-half yards of 40 inch wide material to make this blouse, and about three yards of lace insertion. The second blouse shown is in white spotted muslin. The upper part is gauged to form three round puffs, then the center front is gauged just above the bust. The frills of muslin that are carried from the waist back and front over the shoulder is headed by lace insertion. The sleeves are gathered into a deep puckered band with a frill at the back. Materials required: Four yards of muslin 28 inches wide, and two and one-half yards of lace insertion. The third blouse shown is of blue print mercerized lawn. The yoke of lace is cut with deep blouse in front. The lawn for the blouse joins this without fullness. The two frills which join the joke are hemmed at the edge; the upper frill is continued all around the yoke, the under one is carried under the arms. The puffed sleeves have one frill attached; the one that is attached to the yoke falls over this. The elbows are gathered into tight bands finished by ruffles of lawn. Materials: Five yards lawn 28 inches wide, and one-half yard of lace for yoke. The princess yoke will be in favor this fall. It will be made of lace or have a certain amount in its construction. Heavy silk lace is considered particularly good for the purpose, although Venice and Irish will also be used. As to boas and ruffs there is little question that they will again be popular. Maline will probably be the leading material used, both in plain and in small figured effects, and in black, brown and blue more than in any other colors, some of these being dotted with white. But to come back once more to the present, a very handsome volle dress is shown herewith. The skirt is a simple full shape gathered to a shaped yoke; it is trimmed at the foot with two bands of lace insertion. The deep corselet belt is mounted on a Featherbone foundation, and is worn with an embroidered net slip. The smart little bolero is trimmed with a band of lace insertion threaded with ribbon, which is formed into loops and ends each side the front. Beneath this insertion is a frill of the volle; the sleeves are trimmed in the same way, and are finished with deep lace ruffles. Hat of pale 46 blue straw, trimmed with white roses, ostrich tips, and black ribbon velvet. Materials required for the dress: Seven yards 46 inches wide, 12 yards insertion, five yards ribbon, $2\frac{1}{2}$ yards lining silk. Further Irrigation Needed. Chief Justice Fuller was not long ago the guest of a southern gentleman who had a servant named John, famous for his mint julep. Soon after Judge Fuller's arrival John appeared bearing a tray on which was a long cool glass, topped with crushed ice and a small tree of mint. With low bows and many smiles he presented it, and watched anxiously while Judge Fuller appreciatively sipped it. "That touch the right spot, sah?" he queried. "It does. John, it does," the judge replied. John disappeared, but was soon recalled by the thinkle of a hand bell. The glass was now empty. The judge looked up with a twinkle in his eye. "I think I've got another spot John," he said. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1906. Personal, Social, Lodge Church, Literary and Other Notes of Interest.

An address to the country was read. It says in part: "The men of the Niagara Movement, coming from the toll of the year's hard work and pausing a moment from the earning of their daily bread, turn toward the nation and ask again in the name of ten millions the privilege of a hearing. In the past year the work of the Negro labor has flourished in the land. Stripped of webage and subterfuge, and in its naked nastiness, the new American creed says, 'Fear to let black men even try to rise lest they become the equals of the white.' In 'detail our demands are clear and unequivocal. "First—We would vote; with the right to vote goes everything. "Second—We want discrimination in public accommodations to cease. "Third—We claim the right of free men to walk, talk and be with them that we be with us. "Fourth—We want the laws enforced against rich as well as poor; against capitalist as well as laborer; against white as well as black. "Fifth—We want the national government to wipe out illiteracy in the south." The address closes with an appeal to the young men and women of the nation, and asks: "Cannot the nation that has absorbed 10,000,000 foreigners into its political life without American involvement?" 10,000,000 Negro Americans into that political life at less cost than that unjust and illegal exclusion will involve?" Mitchell's Work in Chillicothe. Akron, O.—The following special dispatch was received Aug. 9 by the Beacon Journal from Chillicothe, relative to the operations of "Prof." Mitchell in that city: "Prof. Z. W. Mitchell came to Chillicothe several years ago and organized the Loyal Legion of Labor, an organization to perfect the Negro race. It was supposed to be national in its scope, and Prof. Mitchell made many glittering promises to the colored population of Chillicothe, in interesting a lot of Negroes and a lot of white people as well, in his work, accumulated a lot of debts, and left owing quite a sum to both white people and Negroes. He has since worked the same scheme in other Ohio cities.

Springfield, Conn.-Suit for $3,000 has been brought against Joe Fun, the wealthiest Chinaman in this city, by Frank Pestridge, a prominent Afro-American resident, who alleges that Fun refused to serve food to the plaintiff and his wife. Pestridge claims that he made repeated attempts to obtain food, and was denied a bowl of tea. Added interest is attached to the suit because the defendant married an Afro-American.

Tell your friends. F. L. Barnett, Esq., assistant state's attorney, of Chicago, Ill., will please accept congratulations upon his recent nomination as a republican candidate for municipal judge. This is quite an honor, and one well deserved. We sincerely trust that he will be triumphantly elected, principally because it will be a most encouraging advance in politics for our people in this section of the country. We have not forgotten the appointment of Judge Ruffin many years ago by Gov. Butler, of Massachusetts. Those Brownsville, Texas, roughs (white) who mistreated Afro-American regulars stationed at Ft. Brown, Texas, and had a couple of their number killed by the latter, have been successful with the assistance of the "best" white citizens of the town in having the Afro-American troops transferred from Ft. Brown to Ft Ringgold, Texas. This is doubtless satisfactory to all concerned, especially so to the soldiers, in view of the fact that they have taught all Texas and the south a much needed lesson, and too without any injury to themselves. ILLITERACY A CRIME AGAINST THE STATE. State superintendent of public in- struction, Semour A. Mynders, in ad dressing the citizens of the great cities of Tennessee, pronounced illi- teracy among the people as an in- tolerable crime for which every par- ent should be required to give an account. The first duty of the parent to the family and the state is to take advantage of and improve all school privileges accorded under the laws. Failure to meet this obligation imposes the restriction of the law. Yet under this same restriction, there is a criminal indifference on the part of parents to keep their children in regi- lar school attendance. With very good reason then does Supt. Mynders take the position that illiteracy among the people is a crime. It is very apparent that most crimes emi- nate from any ignorant and vicious impulse. That impulse finds its seat in the brain, which when undeveloped and untrained leads to dire mischief. Unless the growing evils among the masses, incident to popular ignorance, are eliminated by the proper education and training of the people's children, crime must follow. But illiteracy becomes a crime in the sense that neglect on the part of the parent to educate the children is a direct violation of the moral and civil law. Such violation then is criminal, and becomes an offence against the state, which should be redressed according to the manner and regulations so imposed. Illiteracy entails crime through ignorance on the part of the individual to know the law in its application to enforce the duties which it obligates. An individual is not relieved from the penalty of the law on account of his ignorance of law. He may violate the law ignorantly, not maliciously, but he must suffer the penalty even as the most well informed. The law is especially designed for the protection of all citizens alike; hence it is expected that all men shall accept and abide by it. For this reason any violation of the common law is a crime against the state. Illiteracy is a crime, because neglect to send a child to school so many months in the year is done in violation of a most sacred obligation. We are also confronted here with a two-fold responsibility. Responsibility to the state and to the child makes the penalty all the more severe and binding in consideration of the duty which we owe to the state and the child. We cannot hope to escape a penalty in view of a known obligation to the law. We are doubly guilty when we ignore the obligations of the moral and civil law, and no parent, no citizen should hope or expect to be absolved from a penalty enjoining the highest duty to the state. In whatever light we may view common illiteracy, can we regard it other than a deliberate crime against the state when the child for no good reason is allowed to spend the entire 12 months in idleness and shame? We offer any word in palliation of an evil of deliberate neglect to educate, and one so prevalent in a large majority of the states in the union? THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1906. The American people know the needs of an education among the common people. They know of its actual benefits and its untold blessings to the country at large and they know that of all legacies it stands supreme as a guiding light and as a star of hope shining out upon the dark brown of night. It cannot be denied that in proportion as the people are educated, intellectually and morally, crime ceases in that same proportion. It has been said that ignorance is the mother of all crimes. Would we wipe out the most shameful blot that today blackens the fair name of our country? Would we rescue the masses from the destroying influences of sin and crime? Then let us call the children from their homes to the common schools, let us wage a ceaseless fight against illiteracy and ignorance, and save the states of our fast growing union from the pollutions of crime and vice and corruption so incident to the illiteracy of a people, the cares of the republic. Gans, Nelson and Wolcott. The first day that Gans was in Columbia, Nev., the town where he is to train, he won $1,600 shooting craps. It is often stated that a wrestler and makes a successful boxer. There is no successor almost every. The judge, Joe Woutcourt is sure to the above. Walcott started out as a mat artist and made quite a reputation for himself. He bld well to becoming a world's champion in the lightweight division, when Jack Sheehan, the old Boston sport promoter, advised him to take up fighting. He did it and was soon on his way to the top. Joe is getting along well in years, having passed his 30th year some time ago. But that he is still able to put up a great battle was evidenced a short time ago. Here are the latest measurements of Gans and Nelson (white) taken Saturday at Goldfield: "GREATER THAN A KING." Once upon a time (and this is a true story) a stork brought to the home of a father and mother in far away Sweden, to the village of "Wermland," a little baby boy, and strange as it may seem this little fellow was one day to almost hold in the palm of his hand (in fact he did) the fate of our country, the United States. Think of it. This little fellow at 12 years of age was a cadet in the Engineer's Corps of the Swedish army; at 17 he was a lieutenant, and at 23 a captain. Look around among your companions and pick out some boy friend of the same age, then imagine his being a captain in the United States army. Now I ask you to read about the marvelous and wonderful inventions of the boy of Sweden. Have you ever made a trip on the blue waters of New York Harbor, on one of the powerful Ferry boats of the Erie R. R.—say on the steamer "Chautauqua," that piles between Jersey City and the new Erie station at 23rd street in New York? Let me tell you that this same boy that I have referred to made it possible for these tremendous Erie Ferry boats to plough the waters of the grandest and most beautiful harbor in the world without using big "side wheels." These powerful boats that can and do carry an trip hundreds and hundreds of passengers, besides strings of horses and weapons, rays of automobile etc. Have you ever seen an automobile that have ever seen a double deck ferry boat "Chautauqua" in a perfect blaze of electric lights? Next time you go to New York don't miss this sight. It is one of the wonders of the age, and ought to be one of the "Seven Wonders of the World," and yet one little boy from Sweden did what? He invented the "Screw Propeller," and it drives these ponderous ferry boats, not only these, but battleships, men of war, Trans-Atlantic steamers, the Giants of the Sea. Every American boy or girl who has studied or read the history of the last civil war may be surprised to learn that this same little boy of Sweden saved the government of the United States from overthrow in that terrific naval battle in "Hampton Roads" between the powerful Confederate man-of-war the "Merrimac" and that little giant the "Monter"; and do you know that New York City, Boston and other cities along our coast would have been almost annihilated if that monster the "Merrimac" had been allowed to have her own way, and to which our little "Monitor" said no—and who built the Monitor?—our same little boy of Sweden—and who built the war ship "Princeton" for the United States government—remember that the Princeton was the first "Screw Propelled" war ship known in the country—and who built a 2,000 ton ship, the power being a caloric engine, an engine that runs by means of heated air? This same little boy of Sweden, and he named the ship with the name his father and mother gave him many years ago in the little town of Wermland. Now can you guess it? It was "John Ericsson." That name will never die. J. D. Brown, Cleveland, G. MAKE MONEY!

TOLD IN CONDENSED FORM Complete Review of Happenings of Greatest Interest from All Parts of the Globe—The Latest Foreign Information. SOUTH AMERICAN QUAKE SOUTH AMERICAN QUAKE. One of the worst earthquake disasters in the history of South America has occurred in Chill, with the city of Valparaiso as the focus point of the calamity, according to cables from Valparaiso as the focus point of the South American points. Dispatches from Valparaiso state that a moderate estimate of the fatalities is 2,000 and that the property loss may be as high as $250,000,000. The town of Quillota, situated about 26 miles from Valparaiso and having a population of some 10,000, has been completely destroyed. At Santiago many of the best public and private buildings were wrecked. The loss of life there was augmented by the panic which seized the people, many of whom threw themselves from the balconies of their homes. The greatest damage occurred in the towns of Valparaiso and Aconcagua. The town of Arbaca suffered severely. Lai Lai is reported to have entirely disappeared and Limache and Hierro Viejo have been almost totally wrecked. At Vina del Mar three-quarts of the houses are in ruins. Provisions and thousands of tons of flour, wheat and rice are held in store at Valparaiso and afloat; it is not believed a food famine will occur.

Public subscriptions have been opened for money, clothing and provisions, and the capital is caring for all refugees from Valparaiso who make their way across the mountains. The earthquakes in Chili have ceased, the resultant fires have been extinguished and people of the two cities, Valparaiso and Santiago are taken organized steps to relieve suffering, care for the wounded and bury the dead.

The funds collected in Chili for festivities in connection with the inauguration of President-elect Montt will be distributed among the sufferers from the earthquake.

Box 1270 For Member Board of Public Works, GEORGE E. NYSWONGER, of Darke County. Columbus, O.-The foregoing ticket was named by the Ohio democratic convention here Wednesday. During the first hour and a half of the session the question of an endorsement of county option in temperance legislation was under discussion, an attempt by W. L. Finley to amend the platform and give such an endorsement being defeated on a roll call. The platform adopted demands taxation of franchises; declares for home rule and rigid inspection of state and private banks; favors legislation to make unlawful the giving of passes to public officials; declares for election of United States senators by the people; declares for the initiative and referendum, endorse W. J. Bryan for the presidential nomination in 1908; pays a tribute to the memory of Gov. Pattison and asks for a revision of the laws for assessing the property of railroads and other public service corporations.

Rogers, who had been elected a member of the central committee from the Nineteenth district, was unseated and Judge D. L. Rockwell was appointed to fill the vacancy. First Day's Proceedings. Columbus, O. — Chairman Frank Harper, of the democratic state central committee, called the democratic state convention to order in the handsome new Memorial hall on Broad street at 8 o'clock last night, at once announcing the temporary organization recommended by the state committee. Judge B. F. McCann, of Dayton, the temporary chairman, was introduced and delivered the opening address of the convention. Before any committee reports had been heard or other business transacted, the delegates called for a speech from ex-Congressman John J. Lentz. Mr. Lentz announced the details of the New York reception to W. J. Bryan, whom he called the "most distinguished private citizen ever known in the world." He paid a high tribute to Bryan and the late Gov. Pattison, urging the delegates of this convention to "rise to the idealism of John M. Pattison," and discussed national issues at length. The balance of the temporary organization was announced with Price Russell, of Creston, as secretary; John A. Connor, of Columbus; Joseph Callahan, of Coshocton, and S. A. Court, of Columbus, assistant secretaries, and Bert S. Bartlow, of Hamilton, sergeant-at-arms. The report of the committee on credentials was presented declaring against the contestants in Hamilton county and the report was adopted. The committee on permanent organization reported in favor of making the temporary organization permanent and the report was adopted by the convention, which then adjourned till 9:30 to-day. The various delegations met during the afternoon and selected their members of the various committees of the convention and also vice presidents and members of the new state central committee. Later these committees organized. The new state central committee selected Charles Kloeb, of Mercer county, for chairman, giving him all but three votes which were cast for Fenton Lawson, of Hamilton county, who was Mayor Tom L. Johnson's candidate. Kloeb was a Garber man and was selected for chairman of the central committee, so official votes for Ravenna, who had been slated for the chairmanship, had been defeated by S. G. Rogers, of Akron, as member from the Nineteenth district. This particular district meeting was very bitter and personal encounters were several times narrowly averted. Death of J. C. Morse Cleveland, O.-J. C. Morse died Wednesday at his residence, after two years' illness.

Arrested for Trying to Finance a Revolution in Venezuela with Counterfeit Silver Dollars. New York.-On a charge of making dies to counterfeit the silver dollar of Venezuela to finance a revolution in that country, secret service officers on Wednesday arrested Capt. George Boynton, former resident manager of the Orinoco Corporation, of Venezuela, and Lewis M. Thompson, an attorney, both of this city. Both prisoners were admitted to bail in $5,000. Joseph Keller and Sidney A. Keller, of Keller Bros., die makers, were also arrested in connection with the case. So important did the federal authorities regard the arrests that Chief Wilkie, of the secret service, came over from Washington to be on the ground when the men were apprehended. With Chief Wilkie was the secretary of the Venezuelan legation. Boynton, it is said, has been for years the local manager of the Orinoco Concession, capitalized at $5,000,000 and controlling practically the entire Orinoco delta. It is charged that when Boynton came to New York in June to get the alleged revolution on foot he undertook to put in operation a plan similar to that whereby the revolution against Dom Pedro in Brazil was said to have been financed, of getting dies, buying bullion and selling silver coin was necessary. Later if the movement proved successful, the issue could be legalized; if unsuccessful, no one would be injured, it was argued, as the colons were to be made of the same fineness as those regularly coined by the government. CAPTURED A CITY. Cuban Insurgents Took Possession of the Town of Luís After Taka Havana, Cuba.—The insurgents in the province of Pinar del Rio captured their first city there Wednesday. The force led by Pino Guaero, an ex-congressman and who was thought to be many miles eastward, and sundry other insurgent bands attacked San Luis, which is situated on the railroad about ten miles west of Pinar del Rio City. A sharp engagement followed, during which a number of men were killed or wounded. The town was defended by less than 100 rural guards, 50 of whom surrendered to the insurgents and are held as prisoners. The insurgent forces are in possession of the railroad station and of the town. By the capture of San Luis, which has about 5,000 inhabitants, the insurgents have obtained an important base for future operations. A telegram to the government late last night stated that Maj. Laurent, with his detachment of rural guards, fought Guerra and his 300 men for three hours yesterday afternoon, completely defeating him, killing or wounding many insurgents and taking three prisoners. The dispatch adds that the rebels dispersed in all directions, being chased long distances. None of the rural guards were hurt. Another portion of the insurgent forces continues in occupation of San Luis. HOKE SMITH'S VICTORY A Famous Georgian Wins in a Contest for the. Nomination for Governor.

"Three years ago my system was in a terrible run-down condition and I was broken out all over my body. I began to be worried about my condition and I was glad to try anything which would relieve me. "Peruna was recommended to me as fine blood remedy and tonic, and I soon found that it was worthy of praise. "A few bottles changed my condition materially and in a short time I was in a better shape. "I love to Peruna my restoration to health and strength. I am glad to endorse it." Pe-ru-na Restores Strength. Mrs. Hettie Green, R. R. 6, Iuka, III. Writes: "I had catarach and felt miserable. I began the use of Peruna and began to improve in every way. My dad taught me so much my appetite is good and I am gaining in flesh and strength." BOYISH MIND WAS WORKING Youngster on His First Sail Over the "Raging Main." None of us ever quite forget those days—when our years were few—of dreaming about life on the raging main, when the imagination revealed in pirates and plunder from statey galloons and valorous deeds done on storm-swept decks, says a writer in the New York Times. Recollection of this period is, at any rate, sufficiently vivid, so that the remark of a small boy could contribute magically to the "gayety of nations," among the passengers on one of the excursion steamers running from Manhattan across the harbor to Coney Island. The steamer made her way across the bay, dodging tugs and ferryboats —fortunately meeting no pirate craft. The passengers, escaping gladly from the city's heat, nibbled their sandwiches and enjoyed the breeze. The waiters moved about the deck with their trays. The boy, just from the inland town, where his life so far had been spent, sat rapt and wideeyed. If one could but know fully the "mental content" from which sprang his words at last! "Ma'r" he cried, hoarsely, "tell me which one of 'em is the skipper!" DOCTOR CURED OF ECZEMA. Maryland Physician Cures Himself— Dr. Fisher Says: "Cuticura Remedies Possess True Merit." "My face was afflicted with eczema in the year 1897. I used the Cuticura Remedies, and was entirely cured. I am a practicing physician, and very often prescribe Cuticura Resolvent and Cuticura Soap in cases of eczema, and they have cured where other formulas have failed. I am not in the habit of endorsing patent medicines, but when I find remedies possessing true merit, such as the Cuticura Remedies do. I am broad-minded enough to proclaim their virtues to the world. I have been practicing medicine for sixteen years, and must say I find your Remedies A No. 1. You are at liberty to publish this letter. G. M. Fisher, M. D., Big Pool, Md., May 24, 1905." Suffered for "White Lie." Is a white he ever justified? That at least some people believe it has no excuse is proved by the following tale: An ancient rabbi came to a city where all the people were truthful, married one of the inhabitants, had two children and prospered. One day a neighbor called when the rabbi's wife was washing her head, and the rabbi, going to the door, was seized by false modesty and said that she had gone out. Thereupon both of his children died, and, as no one died in that city before reaching old age, the neighbors made inquiries, the rabbi confessed what he had done, and was ordered to leave the city immediately. Switzerland's Silk Production. Few people probably suspect the extent to which Switzerland figures among the silk-producing countries of the world, which, so far as Europe is concerned, have always been supposed to be France and Italy. But Switzerland exports annually silk to the value of about $20,000,000, nearly all going to European countries.

The public may rely on this product, sold only in London. Washington, D. C., August 20th.—A determined effort will be made at the next session of congress to prevent another appropriation for the free distribution of common garden seeds, Congress now expends $242,000 a year in giving away the commonest varieties of peas, beans, turnip, squash and pumpkin seeds. They are divided into 40,000,000 packets so that the packets cost about half a cent each. But as a large part of the appropriation is expended in clerk hire, packing the seed, etc., the actual value of the seed in a packet is much less than half a cent. These packets are put up in packages of five packets, the total cost of the packages being about two cents each, and they are purchasable anywhere at five cents. Each member of congress gets 12,000 such packages, which he distributes to the voters of his district. The farmers say that these packages contain so little seed as to be of no value to them, while the total appropriation, if expended in sending out really rare and valuable seed, or in maintaining a national agricultural college, or divided among the state agricultural colleges, would be of immense value to the farming interests. They therefore protest against the waste of public money. The seedmen claim that as congress has already expended $5,000,000 in giving away turnip and watermelon seed, it is time it should give away saws, axes or hoes and give the seed trade a rest. Those who believe that congress should cut off this perquisite of its members now used for political purposes, are writing their senators and representatives, urging them to abolish the free seed distribution, and the National Grange, many state and local granges, horticultural, agricultural and other societies are adopting resolutions condemning it. Mr. William Wolff Smith, of Washington, D. C., has been selected to represent the opposition to the congressional free seed distribution, and is personally answering all inquiries concerning the same. "PEN AND INK" BET WAS EASY. Colonel "Ike" Hill Quite Ready to Increase the Amount. Col. "Ike" Hill, assistant sergeant-at-arms for the Democrats in the house of representatives, has violent political prejudices and at election time is wont to back them with money. He got into a political discussion in the lobby of the Hoffman house in New York a short time ago and made an assertion that was disputed by a man in the gathering. Col. "Ike" reached down into his pocket, pulled out a roll of money and peeled off five $100 bills. "I will just bet you $500 I am right," he said. "I'll take you," said the other. "Wait until I get a pen and ink." A cold look came into Col. "Ike's" eyes. "What do you want a pen and ink for?" he asked. "Why, I want to write a check for $500 to cover your bet." Col. "Ike" put his money back in his pocket. "Bring me a pen and ink, too," he said, "for if this is going to be a check bet I'll make it $5,000."—Saturday Evening Post. Facts About Alaska. Alaska is an interesting region. In area she is twice as large as Texas, with California thrown in, but her resident white population numbers only about 30,000, though in summer she has from 10,000 to 20,000 more whites. In fur, fish and minerals she is rich. Since her annexation she has furnished $50,000,000 of furs, $60,000,000 of fish and $70,000,000 of minerals, chiefly gold and silver. Her output of gold, which was $9,000,000 in 1904, was $16,000,000 in 1905, and will be fully $26,000,000 in 1906—Leslie's Weekly. Transmission of Facial Characteristics It would appear that the transmission of facial traits subordinate to a definite law, that is to say, that ancestral facial expression and appearance are more often than not transmitted through the female members of the family, who generally do not exhibit the same characteristics to the male offspring, and that the younger generations show, as a rule, all the facial conditions and signs which were present in a remote ancestor—North American Review. Poison in Yolk of Eggs. M. G. Loisel has arrived at the somewhat startling conclusion that the yolk of the eggs of fowls and ducks, as well as those of the tortoise, contains poisonous substances. When isolated and injected into the veins of rabbits or other animals these promptly cause death. The phenomena produced are those of acute intoxication of the central nervous system. MORE THAN MONEY. A Minister Talks About Grape-Nuts. "My first stomach trouble began back in 1895," writes a minister in Nebr., "resulting from hasty eating and eating too much. I found no relief from medicine and grew so bad that all food gave me great distress. "It was that sore, gnawing, hungry feeling in my stomach that was so distressing and I became a sick man. Grape-Nuts was recommended as a food that could be easily digested. "Leaving the old diet that had given me so much trouble, I began to eat Grape-Nuts with a little cream and sugar. The change effected in 24 hours was truly remarkable, and in a few weeks I was back to health again. "My work as a minister calls me away from home a great deal, and recently I drifted back to fat meat and indigestible foods, which put me again on the sick list. "So I went back to Grape-Nuts and cream and in four days I was put right again. The old dull headaches are gone, stomach comfortable, head clear, and it is a delight to pursue my studies and work. "Grape-Nuts food is worth more than money to me, and I hope this may induce some sufferer to follow the same course I have." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. "There's a reason."

It is not generally known—not even among painters—why certain tints and colors wear much better than others on houses, and the knowledge of just what tints are best to use is, therefore, rather hazy. One writer on paint, in a recent book, says that experiments seem to show that those colors which resist or turn back the heat rays of the sun, will protect a house better than those which allow these rays to pass through the film. Thus red is a good color because it turns back, or reflects, the red rays, and the red rays are the hot rays. In general, therefore, the warm tones are good and the cold tones are poor, so far as wear is concerned. In choosing the color of paint for your house, select reds, browns, grays and olives which, considering the various tones these tints will produce, will give a wide range from which to choose. Avoid the harsh tints, such as cold yellows (like lemon), cold greens (like grass green, etc.), and the blues. It must be understood that no virtue is claimed for tints in themselves, irrespective of the materials used in the paint. Any color will fade, and the paint will scale off, if adulterated white lead or canned paint is used, but if one is careful to use the best white lead—some well-known brand of a reliable manufacturer—and genuine linseed oil, the warm tints mentioned above will outwear the same materials tinted with the cold colors. When the average man does you a favor he never lets you forget it. PUTNAM FADLEESS DYES color with darker colors with less worse than others. Gen. Mercier in England. Gen.

Five or six small beads, made of mother-of-pearl and strung together by a thread, are dropped at the proper season into the open mouth of the shell. Two years later the mussel, when recovered it is made to disgorge the beads, now covered with a pearly crust, indistinguishable from the naturally made pearl. Pushing Cape to Cairo Line In a report in the London Times it is stated that the Cape to Cairo railway in South Africa has been opened so as to run over the Kafue river on a bridge which stands on 13 spans, each 100 feet, with pillars resting on a bed 16 feet under the water. Kafue river is 266 miles north of Victoria falls, and the distance from Cape Town is 1,908 miles. The railroad, however, is now at Broken hill, 347 miles beyond the falls, the line having been pushed on while the bridge was building over the Kafue river. His Interest Was Personal. An eccentric member of the British parliament who died recently endeavored vainly during a quarter of a century to get passed into law a bill for preventing persons from standing outside windows while cleaning them. During his last session the old fellow complained to a colleague that his object in introducing the bill had been quite misunderstood by the house for these 25 years. "I introduced the bill," said he, "not for the sake of the window cleaners, but for the sake of the people below, on whom they might fall. The idea of the bill was suggested to me by the fear that a window cleaner might fall on myself." Butler's Stolen Fec. The late Hon. Joseph Q. Hoyt, formerly of Boston, when a lad attended a circus and his silver watch was stolen. The supposed thief was arrested, and was defended by Benjamin F. Butler, who proved he did not take the watch, and never was at the circus. During the civil war Hoyt was introduced to Butler at a dinner at the Astor house, in New York, and the latter remarked: "This is the first time I have had the pleasure of meeting you." "Oh, no!" said Hoyt, who then related the circus incident. "Was that you, Hoyt?" asked Butler, and, being answered in the affirmative, Butler laughed and said: "That was an awful good watch, Hoyt. That is all I got for defending the thief." SALLOW FACES Often Caused by Coffee Drinking. How many persons realize that coffee so disturbs digestion that it produces a muddy, yellow complexion? A ten days' trial of Postum Food Coffee has proven a means, in thousands of cases, of clearing up bad complexions. A Washin. young lady tells her experience: "All of us—father, mother, sister and brother—had used tea and coffee for many years until finally we all bad stomach troubles more or less. "We were all sallow and troubled with pimples, breath bad, disagreeable taste in the mouth, and all of us simply so many bundles of nerves. "We didn't realize that coffee was the cause of the trouble until one day we ran out of coffee and went to borrow some from a neighbor. She gave us some Postum and told us to try that. "Although we started to make it, we all felt sure we would be sick if we missed our strong coffee, but we were forced to try Postum and were surprised to find it delicious. "We read the statements on the pkg, got more and in a month and a half you wouldn't have known us. We were all able to digest our food without any trouble, each one's skin became clear, tongues cleaned off and nerves in fine condition. We never use anything now but Postum. There is nothing like it." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book, "The Road to Wallville," "There's a reason." COULD NOT KEEP UP. Broken Down, Like Many Another Woman, with Exhausting Kidney Troubles. Mrs. A. Taylor, of Wharton, N. J., says: "I had kidney trouble in its most painful and severe form, and the torture I went through now seems to have been almost unhearable. I had back-ache, palms in the side and loins, dizzy spells and hot, feverish headaches. There were bearing-down pains, and the kidney secretions torture I went through now seems to have been almost unbearable. I had back-ache, pains in the side and loins, dizzy spells and hot, feverish headaches. There were bearing-down pains, and the kidney secretions passed too frequently, and with a burning sensation. They showed sediment. I became discouraged, weak, languid and depressed, so sick and weak that I could not keep up. As doctors did not cure me I decided to try Doan's Kidney Pills, and with such success that my troubles were all gone after using eight boxes, and my strength, ambition and general health is fine."

There is a certain writer in Boston—a man of remarkable versatility—who once gave a friend in the publishing business in New York a resume of the details of his average day's work. "I am as methodical in my work," said the Boston writer, "as any business man. My daily tasks are so diversified and so arranged that I am able to afford myself considerable variety during the 12 hours per day that I employ in authorship. For instance, from eight in the morning to ten I do my verse; from ten to 12 my criticisms; from three to five I am engaged upon a history of the world intended for perusal by children." And so he continued to give his visitor the whole scheme. When he had concluded, the New Yorker, an exceedingly blunt individual, rather unkindly inquired: "And when, sir, do you think?" How Emperor William Is Battling Against a Dangerous Heredity. Emperor William's father died of cancer of the throat. Emperor William himself had infantile paralysis, and has had to struggle with partly because he had to struggle with many difficulties. It has been whispered that he himself is troubled with the same malady which carried off his father. Royal blood is unfortunately most generally deteriorated as well as anybody, and is doing his best to eradicate the bad blood from himself and his family by the adoption of simple life principles. With the visit of a countryman of his to Battle Creek, Michigan, while in this country, visiting the World's Fair in Chicago in 1883, Emperor William became the Battle Creek idea of simple living and adopted the methods in his family. His wife and children live the simple life and take Battle Creek light baths. Their old home is installed in his Windsor and Buckingham Palace for the use of himself and Queen Alexandra.

Large as Prehistoric Monsters. Large as Prehistoric Monsters. Some of the largest and most important animals are bigger now than they were in the prehistoric times. They are now emptifully so of the horse. The best authorities hold that in bulk and weight the largest whales now in existence are larger than any of the long-named monsters that abounded in the early ages of the earth. M.R. CASTORIA THE LAXATIVE OF KNOWN QUALITY There are two classes of remedies: those of known quality and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assistance; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting temporarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to contribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming constipation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active principles and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer imitations of the manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., and in order to buy the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co—plainly printed on the front of every package.

His wife found him suspended from a rafter in the barn. He was wroth at her interposition, but he had let me walk, a few minutes more. I would have been in heaven." His wife replied: "Yes, and you would have looked nice running around over heaven with a blind bridle, on wouldn't you?" —Thockmorton (Tex.) Times.
