THE TWENTY-FIFTH YEAR. NO. 3. SOME SEASONABLE STYLES 898 Organicle and chiffon, marquisette, mull, batiste and Swiss for young girls, make ideal dinner gowns and frocks for warm weather wear. In these days, of course, chiffons and equally thin materials are worn in winter for the evening gowns, but batiste and Swiss and the other cotton and linen fabrics are purely summer materials, and should be made the most of during the heated term. All of these purely warm weather frocks are prettiest and in the best taste when simply made and trimmed with lace and tucks, or a little trimmed embroidery. For young girls, including those recently out, the slightly decollete neck and elbow sleeves with round length skirts are the most appropriate, and also the most becoming not only because of their youth, but also because youth is prone to angles, and angles and hollows should not be imposed on an inoffensive public save when absolutely necessary. A pretty arm is an exception. Arms should be white, tapering from shoulders to wrists, and should be well covered with flesh if not plump. The wrists and hands should be delicate and small in comparison with the arms. The neck should be round and no hollows or bones should show at its base, and at the same time it should not be so plump that the modeling is lost in flesh. The exhibition of scrawny arms, bony wrists terminating in hands disproportionately large, and of big, fat arms almost as large below the elbows as a 'vine', and both with ugly elbows, since the advent of the elbow sleeves, have been a revelation and a most unpleasant one. Comfortable as the elbow sleeve is, the possessors of ugly arms should have too much self-respect to expose them to the scornful gaze of the public. Long sleeves with transparent lace cuffs from the elbows down or finely tucked bands with insertions are cool and fashionable, and work wonders in the way of disguising the deficiencies of homely arms. When it comes to the evening dress, however, one's arms are of necessity exposed, but they may be draped as much as possible with flicating draperies, and even veiled half way to the wrists with gauze or tulle. In any event, the arms may be treated with bleaches, creams and liquid powders until the skin presents an attractive appearance. It is the duty of all women to care fully study their personal appearance and to take careful note of the comments of their enemies rather than their friends in ascertaining their weak points, and to improve or to disguise them as much as possible. Many a woman with a handsome face thinks that it is all that is necessary, when, after all, it is only one asset and a negligible one at that, if a woman has a passable figure with fine neck, arms and hands, and is, above all else, agreeable, intelligent and tastefully gowned. The dresses shown in our large illustration are exquisite creations, simple, yet elegant.

The chemisette and undersleeves are of white chiffon and Cluny lace, and the crowning hat is a picturesque cloque shaped model in buttercup Leghorn where some clever hand has dropped a carelessly grouped cluster of softly shaded pink roses and their fresh green foliage. The other lovely gown is of white chiffon with its novel and very effective arrangement of Cluny lace insertion and bands of narrow white satin ribbon, the lace finishing off in widening medallions on the skirt and being fringed with silken tassels, and this same most fashionable trimming appearing too on the bodice, where there is a deep transparent yoke of the lace. The hat adds a note of color to the dainty scheme, its soft peacock blue straw making background for one of the new and wonderful feathers in mole shadings. The triumph of this season is quite overwhelming. Everything is now trimmed with bands or festoons of lovely ribbons, and in the millinery world nothing else seems thought of. Without doubt many of the new rib Robe of Pale Blue Volle with Applications of Fine Guipure and a Sash of Soft Black Satin Tied in a Large Bow at the Back. bons are things of great beauty; of such beauty that no one could marvel at their popularity. For party frocks the latest idea is to combine broad Pompard ribbons with frills of narrow satin ribbon, arranged in bold scrolls. It is a fad of the moment to arrange ribbons to imitate stripes on muslins and piece laces. It is a becoming fashion to slender women, but it tends to make the figure look just a trifle bulky.

CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 17, 1907. Roosevelt and Tillman Compared and Scored—Race Conditions Discussed. [From Steubenville (O.) Herald Star] Emancipation day was appropriately celebrated by the colored residents of Steubenville at Stanton park Thursday afternoon and evening by an outing given under the auspices of the Foraker club. There was dancing afternoon and evening. The orator of the day was the elquent Hon. Harry C. Smith, who addressed a crowd at West park which applauded the sentiments he uttered. B. J. Guyder presided and introduced the speaker. Seated on the platform were Rev. C. D. White, of Quinn A. M. e church; Rev. H. A. Foreman, of Simpson M. E. church, and Rev. Luke W. White, D. D., of Wellsville, who delivered the invocation. The speaker at the outset took up the cuegel on an article in a local paper laudatory of Tillman in which a colored resident of Stebenville was quoted as saying Tillman was an honest white man. The speaker said in part: I wish all our white friends could understand the reason for such articles as these. I am railing against the American condition that makes it possible for one of our people to utter such sentiments to be printed in a paper of the white race. The white man's heel is on the black man's neck and it brings about a feeling on the part of the unfortunate and hopeless black man that characterizes this man's hurtful article. What we have to contend with no white man can know nor would any white man survive what we have gone through. All colored men and women in this country only from birth to death are compelled to stand treatment which made this colored man utter such sentiments in his desperation. You people ought to be able to tell of the bleeding heart in the man quoted in this newspaper article and how and why the same exists in other black people. Emancipation day celebration in this day ought to take on a new form as far as what we talk about is concerned. The day and speeches should be used to encourage. We might if we would recite the splendid progress of our people in the past. The time has come when we should demand and fight for what belongs to us. You are now men and women or ought to be in your own estimation. The progress of the race is built on the individual progress of our people. He spoke of the brave, bright record of the wars, and of how President Roosevelt unfailently on black soldiers, but he (Roosevelt) found they would not stand for it. This act has drawn the black people together as nothing else could have done and we will stand together to the end of time. (Cries of yes! yes!!) If anybody had said one year ago that the black people would have been so drawn together no one would have believed it. If Roosevelt will not give the black soldiers justice he cannot get the black men's votes. His secretary, Taft, went south and in a speech at Greensboro, N. C., condoned the disfranchisement of black voters. All black men will suffer before they vote for him. (Cries of this what we will!) I admire the spirit of townsville affair stirred up which has given the black people together and made them brave bridges, and we dare them to strike our soldiers further. When Tillman casts asperptions on our women he is no worse than the man who strikes at our soldiers. I am encouraged by your spirit of independence and manliness. I have talked to thousands of our people here in Ohio in the past six months and received thousands of letters from those in other parts of the country, and all tell the same story of independence and manhood. The Brownsville riot did more good than harm in making our people independent. President Roosevelt is said to be a great man, but he can make mistakes. It takes a mighty big man, bigger than has ever lived, to make such a mistake as Roosevelt has and yet make the amende honorable. Not till he does this will I believe he is a great man. Over 40 years after the war finds 10,000,000 colored people in this country. Our people do not want to emigrate to Africa and be pioneers. He told briefly what they had accomplished in 40 years of quasi freedom. The young Negroes of to-day do not keep up the pace of our fathers in accumulation. The pace of today is faster than it was, and is getting harder to make a living. The class of people that does not save and accumulate and provide for their children and teach their children to do the things they cannot rise and progress. It is as necessary to save as it is to live. "If you want to be a door mat do not save." Study domestic economy and improve the moral status which is generally as good as our white brethren. Our colored churches and friends have dotted the land with colleges for our people. Black men are branching out in business. The speaker urged them to quit talking of slavery days and not to be servile. be respectful and command respect. Rise above petty prejudices. Go the right way and be practical. We have 40,000 colored voters in Ohio. There was not another hand raised aggressively in congress for our black soldiers but Senator Foraker's. This is in a body of men where we used to have many friends. Foraker's life has been almost nagged and worn out because he was for us. He is a fighter or a man who has been wiped out. When Foraker dies the party friend we have in congress will pass away. Go home with the firm determination to stand for Foraker and your rights. Be modest, unassuming and inoffensive in everyday life. The dominant element in all communities is white and by that sentiment you will be judged, and for that reason we must conduct ourselves with propriety. The good element have to suffer for what bad colored men do. Get rid of the element that brings disrepute on you and causes you to be judged unfairly and unjustly. The trouble breeding Negro has closed more hotels, etc., against us than white prejudice. He closed thanks the audience for their attenuance and interest and was then given warm applause and a rising vote of thanks on motion of Rev. Dr. Luke White. The following is an editorial from the Steubenville Herald-Star: Hon. H. C. Smith, a colored orator of note, spoke yesterday in this city to the people of his race. He took occasion to lambast Senator Tillman for stirring up race trouble and then proceeded to compare President Roosevelt, the most generous minded friend of the colored people who has ever sat in the presidential chair, to this southern trouble breeder who openly and brazenly casts unspeakable aspersions upon every Negro woman in the land. Surely it is time for the thinking colored men to call a halt upon such extravrage of statement, for a Tillman can never do the race half as much harin as can its own members. For Tillman its sentiments we have supreme contempt, but Smith seems to deserve only pity. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR. Steubenville, O. Aug. 10, 1907. Editor, Herald-Star.-Relative to your editorial in yesterday's Herald-Star, permit a newspaper editor of more than twenty-five years' experience to say that my people are in hearty sympathy with all I said in that Emancipation address of Thursday, which your reporter covered so well in the Herald-Star of August 9, and they fully conceal. Tillman's contemptible attack upon the women of my race and Roosevelt's attack upon the juror race through the Brownsville matter and the charge that it is a criminal race, are so nearly one and the same that they are so regarded generally. Therefore I have no apology to make for the sentiments expressed which you seek to criticize in your editorial, nor are they harmful to the members of my race. The Tillman and Roosevelt attacks are, however, because they are so unjust, unfair and untrue that they are malicious. Like my race, I may deserve pity, not, however, for the expression of such righteous sentiments, but we prefer fairer and better treatment at Tillman and Roosevelt's hands, as well as considerably more of the "square deal" we heard so much of a year or two ago, but which seems since to have sunk into innocuous desuetude in the vicinity of the White House, at Washington, D. C. Thanking the Herald-Star for the courtesy of the publication of this communication I am fraternely your, HARRY C. SMITH. Editor the Cleveland Gazette FIGHT ROOSEVLT And Taft is the Slonan of New York and All Other Loyal Afro-Americans. 20 Cliver St. Yonkers, N. Y. Aug. 14, 1907. Editor Gazette, Dear Shr: I enclose you herein an editorial from the New York Daily Press, the leading republican newspaper in that city, which will indicate to your readers how the candidacy of Secretary Taft for the presidency is viewed by republicans in this important state. No self-respecting Afro-American voter, north or south, can afford to vote for Taft or any other man who may be put forward by President Roosevelt, who besides discharging in disgrace, with cut a hearing, nearly 200 men of the Twenty-Fifth United States Infantry in a message to congress by inference, charged our people of this country with the guilt and crime of harboring and shielding criminals. Our voters of New York will fight the secretary of war and any man who stands for the Roosevelt order and message above referred to, both at the primaries and at the general election. Please send The Gazette to me and I will remit. I am very Respectfully yours. H. M. JONES. Bradford, Pa., Locals.

ROOSEVELT Prof. Kelly Miller Writes of Him and the Negro. HIS INGRATITUDE. --- A Howard Professor Shows How the President Turned on the Race that Saved Him at San Juan Hill and in the New York Gubernatorial Election. Washington. D. C. "Roosevelt's second point of contact with the Negro race was during the Spanish war. In that famous charge up San Juan Hill—or was it kettle Hill—the courage and intrepidity of the Negro troops saved Col. Roosevelt and his Rough Riders from utter destruction. Had it not been for their courageous intervention he would have been cut off in the flower of his youth, and his dazzling career lost to the American people. Gratitude is not characteristic of a self-frightened nature. When one is overburdened with a sense of his ordained primacy, he naturally looks upon lesser men as being out into the world as auxiliaries to his higher mission. While the whole world was extolling the prowess of the Negro soldier, it was reserved for the chief beneficiary of that prowess to sound the sole discordant note. In a notable magazine article, where our present day warriors are wont to fight their battles with an ingenuity and courage rarely equaled on the tented col. Col. Roosevelt either discredited their valor or dammed them with such faint praise as to dim the luster of their fame. President Roosevelt. "This ungenerous criticism dum-founded the Negro race, as subsequent developments have clearly shown, touches the pride and arouses the resentment of this race as nothing else can do. For a time there was no more unpopular man in America throughout Afro-Americandom. But election time was approaching. Political exigencies made him the available candidate for the governorship of the Empire state of New York. "The chief factor in this availability was the military glamour that gathered about him because of San Juan Hill, where the colored troops fought so nobly. The results at this election depended upon the colored vote, whose resentment he had aroused. Candidate Roosevelt so mollified and qualified the strictures of Col. Roosevelt as to take away much of the keenness of the sting. By the use of such blandishments as the politician knows well how to apply to save the lives of his class during the unrest of a heated campaign, the injury was forgiven, or at least held in abeance. Again Saved by the Negro. "Under the rallying cry of the grand old party the Negro vote came to the rescue and supported him almost to a man. The slender margin of his victory showed that his success was due to that support. Had the Negro persisted in a spiteful spirit and sought vengeance at the polls his political career doubtless would have been cut short and the pent-up energies of his nature must have sought outlet through a different channel. "It was thus that that the Negro saved his political life at the bailot box, as he had saved his physical life on the battle field." After alluding to the President's stand in the appointment of Dr. Crum, the matter of the Indiana postoffice, aaker Washington incident. Prof. Miller says. "Should succeeding administrations follow Mr. Roosevelt's example in this regard, the Negro would remain in perpetual thraemia to an intermediary boss set up at the whim or caprice of whoever happens to be president. "Strangely enough, one of the most significant moves of the president affecting the political life of the Negro has almost or wholly escaped attention. He has shifted the center of gravity from the south to the north. Hitherto the important federal places accorded the Negro have gone to persons below the Mason and Dixon line. It would seem from present tendency there are to be no more new Negro there to be held merely a continuance in office of those officials against whom local democratic protest is not too loud and boisterous. In a few years there will not be a Negro federal official south of the Mason and Dixon line. Affairs at Brownsville. "The chief irritating issue between the president and the Negro race is SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. the outcome of a most deplorable incident. A Negro battalion was quartered in an obscure town on the remote frontier of Texas. One dark night some shooting was done in the streets, resulting in the death of a barkeeper and the wounding of an officer of the law. The alarm was sounded that the Negro soldiers have 'shot up the town.' "But it must be said that these evidences of friendship and good will have not been systematic and sustained, nor followed up to their logical conclusion. Roosevelt never surrenders, but often seems to evacuate his stronghold as soon as he has demonstrated the enemy's inability to capture it. In the final estimate of history, if his reputation falls short of superlative greatness, it will be because he lacks concessiveness and resistance of purpose and the palace. He is permanently wedded to any one question of the dominant note of his career. He suddenly takes up a measure, settles it, and drops it, and in dealing with the Negro. His scheme of selecting referees with whom to consult on political dealings in the south is something new under the political sun. "Dr. Booker T. Washington has been chosen as referee at large and as the sole spokesman for the entire Negro race. His selection was not due to his political activity or experience, for the whole tenor of his teaching has been to persuade his race to place less proportional stress on politics and concentrate its energies upon things economic and material. But by reason of his general prominence and the world-wide esteem he was put in command of political forces, to the relegation of war-scarred veterans who had borne the heat and burden of the day. Othello naturally objects to his loss of occupation. Most of them have yielded, but only after they learned that the only road to official favor was the straight and narrow path that leads to Tuskegee. "A flood of righteous indignation welled up within him at this outrage upon the national arm. He would teach the wrongdoers a lesson which would never be forgotted. The color of the offenders, he stoutly avers, neither mitigated nor magnified the character of the offense in his mind. The discipline of the army must be upheld. It is easy to believe that the president's conduct at this stage was not based upon consideration of colloquialism. He is himself of a military mold of mine. In military matters, where, he is a law unto himself, and has little reverence for those above, around, or beneath him. He shatters a military idol with as little hesitancy as he would reprimand a common soldier. Did he not criticise and discredit the sagacity of his own commanding general with a little round robin? The man who spoke disparagingly of the troops who saved his life on the battle field, who unceremoniously reprimanded Gen. Miles, the gallant head of the army and hero of many battles, who imputed cowardice and treachery, who triumphed with the hero who has triumphed with modern guns over modern arms, might naturally be supposed to act vigorously in a case of reported wrong-doers at Brownsville. Foraker to the Rescue. "Then came Senator Foraker, like a gallant knight of old, and stepped into the arena as the champion of the helpless and overborne. The voice of 10,000,000 Americans, unheard and unheeded in the conduct of the nation's affairs, found expression in this eloquent and fearless Ohioan. The country and the senate sided with Mr. Foraker, although by the nice and vigorous Legislative verbage they refrained from wounding the presidential pride. "The president became incensed at the persistent attitude of the colored race, and in several special messages reiterated his innuendoes with redoubled vim and emphasis. Senator Foraker became the principal object of his wrath. It was rumored that at a social function, where secrecy was imposed upon all present, a personal colloquy between the two was sharp and bitter. All of this served to make Senator Foraker the hero and idol of the Negro heart. Roosevelt lost what Foraker gained. The Ohio senator is the only commanding statesman of our day who has risked his public career on an issue involveable in the future. No longer may be the immediate outcome of this issue, he has and will have, his reward, for no one who devotes his powers to the defense of the helpless will fail to receive the highest meed of praise when the rancor and heat of the conflict have passed away. "This affair has shaken the prestige of the president as has no other occurrence in his public career. It gives him no end of keen concern. There is every reason to believe that he could wish the deed undone. He has sought to conciliate the Negro with the blandishment of office, but to no avail. With the double view of disconcerting Foraker and reconciling the colored brother, at the psychological moment, when the Ohio senator was booked to make a strategic announcement, the affair, announcement was made of the intention to appoint a colored citizen to the leading federal office in the senator's own state and home city. But as this move seemed to embarrass the president's own friends, including his son-in-law, as much as it did the offending senator, it was abandoned. "There has recently appeared a cartoon by a clever Negro artist representing the 'Black Man's Burden' it is in the form of a cross; not a crown of thorns, but a cross of skulls. At the top of the vertical upright is the head of Roosevelt; Hoke Smith and Tom Watson are arranged underneath; on the left of the crosspiece are Thomas Dixon and John Temple Graves; on the right Tillman and Vardaman.

The worm has at last turned; he has been trodden up- on at least once too often, and by both Roosevelt and Taft. MILLER ON ROOSEVELT. Prof. Kelly Miller has told the story of “Roosevelt and the Negro” very well indeed, If there is any room for criticism, it is because it has been too conservatorily done, as far as the president is concerned. It is nevertheless a terrific indictment ‘of Colonel and President Roosevelt, and too, based entirely upon what the man, himself, has done and said. ‘There is no getting away from this fact. It Is well for us that this is s0, Decause it leaves absolutely no room for argument. ‘There is need only of Such a reference to well known incl- dents, some of them historical now, to prove the case, and that Prof. Mil- Jer has done in really an artistle way. His treatment of the Roosevelt ref- eree system at the south, which of ‘course, includes Booker T. Washing- ton’s political subservancy to the president, and Roosevelt's effort to miollify the righteously indignant ‘Afro-American with the few govern- mental jobs given in the main to nor. ‘therm members of the race, is a con- ‘tinuance of the good work. Likewise, the professor's handling of the Brownsville matter and several per- tinent and somewhat similar inci- dents of a military nature. Them to cap the climax and most fittingly too, he erects on the ruins of the: Afro- America's quondam Roosevelt god- house, the Foraker structure that stands as a veritable holy Gibralter in the love and esteem of an intensely grateful people.

This is one subject on which almost the en- tire race will agree, and would take an active part if they had a leader. ‘There are many things with which we as a race, will have to combat sooner or later, and in all probability the sooner the better, and for that Teason it would be well that we know our organized strength. Those dis: franchisement laws are becoming popular ail the time and are being made and enforced only as a bar to the Negro.

If he wishes to do some. thing to win distinction for himselt, let him secure equal rights at the polls for his people in his own state. If he can't do this, let him keep out of national politics. His influence is only detrimental to the race. Sir, I apologize for the above re- marks as it was my intention only to Mk for a bit of information.

Asa Goddard, of the American Automobile association, was recounting in Worcester some of his touring adventures. "One summer morning," he said, "the approach of a great flock of sheep oblged me to pull off the narrow country road. I halted my car, and watched with interest the passage of the sheep, the intelligent dogs and the shepherd. "I had a short talk with the shepherd about his odd and difficult trade. "Look here, I said, 'what do you do, driving sheep like this on a narrow road, when you meet another flock coming in the opposite direction?" "Well," said the shepherd, 'ye just drive straight on, both of ye, and the one that has the best dogs gets the most sheep." The Size of Him. "Yes," snarled the eminent Octopus who had just had returned to him what Shakespeare sarcastically called "trash."

Even when traveling he usually found some one who would at least listen while he talked. But on one occasion he found himself in a railway coach with only one other occupant—a stiff, dignified old lady who did not delign even to look at him when he raised his hat upon entering the coach. The judge grew restless after they had traveled several, miles. He drummed on the windows, coughed several times, then finally, in desperation, cleared his throat, and asked in stentorian tone: "Madam, did it ever occur to you to wonder whether it had ever rained any before the time of the flood?" The unusual question startled the old lady out of her dignified silence and the two old people were soon engaged in animated conversation.—Cleveland Leader. Rain in Cuba. The wet months in Cuba commence with May and end with October, although there is rain every month in the year. A TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE. How a Veteran Was Saved the Amputation of a Limb. B. Frank Doremus, veteran, of Roosevelt Ave., Indianapolis, Ind., says: "I had been showing symptoms of kidney trouble from the time I was mustered out of the army, but in all my life I never suffered as in 1897.

I had been showing symptoms of kidney trouble from the time I was mustered out of the army, but in all my life I never suffered as in 1897. Headaches, dizziness and sleeplessness, first, and then drops. I was weak and helpless, having run down from 150 to 125 pounds. I was having terrible pain in the kidneys, and the secretions passed almost involuntarily. My left leg swelled until it was 34 inches around, and the tape tapped it night and morning until I could no longer stand it, and then he advised amputation. I refused, and began using Dean's Kidney Pills. The swelling subsided gradually, the urine became natural and all my pains and aches disappeared. I have been well now for nine years since using Dean's Kidney Pills." For sale by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster Milburn, Co. Buffalo, N. Y. SETTING THE BRIDE AT EASE. "Widder's" Sympathy Went Out to Fellow Passenger. A couple recently married had just entered the train that was to bear them to the mountains on their honeymoon, when they became aware of the close scrutiny of them by a female passenger, who had evidently "spotted" a bride and groom. The young wife, on opening her handbag, let fall some rice on the floor, and the woman smiled. The other passengers regarded the couple with interest. Seeing that the bride was every moment becoming more flushed and uncomfortable by reason of their scrutiny, the woman in the goodness of her heart, leaned across the carriage. "Never mind, my dear!" she said. "I'm a wilder now, but by this time next week I'll be in the same fix myself!" NO RELIEF FROM ECZEMA For Over Two Years—Patent Medicines, Quack Cures and Doctors Fail—Cuticula Succeeds. "I was very badly afflicted with eczema for more than two years. The parts affected were my limbs below the knees. I tried all the physicians in the town and some in the surrounding towns, and I also tried all the patient remedies that I heard of, besides all the curcs advised by old women and quacks, and found no relief whatever until I commenced using the Cuticura Soap, Cuticura Ointment, and Cuticura Resolvent. In the Cuticura Remedies I found immediate relief, and was soon sound and well. C. V. Beltz, Tippacone, Ind., Nov. 15, "05." In Extremis. The yacht was heavily becalmed. There were but ten bottles of champagne in the lockers. Their last signal of distress had been sent up, without bringing any response. "Gentlemen," exclaimed the commodore, in a quavering voice, "I can no longer conceal the hideous truth from you. Sobriety stares us in the face!" It was a wildly various scene which ensued. Some blissfully, some prayed, some, in an access of frenzied wantonness, sang songs, while some sat stolically by, awaiting their fate with at least an outward calm—Puck. NEW HOMES IN THE WEST.

Mrs. Armitage had a negro servant who continually prated of a certain Mrs. Reed for whom she formerly worked. Weary of hearing Mrs. Reed quoted so often, the mistress asked one day: "Well, Samantha, what kind of work lid you do at Mrs. Reed's, anyway?"

A wayfarer, jogging along the public highway in pursuit of his own purposes, was run against and knocked over by a wild-eyed youth of frightened men, who, upon untangling himself from the peregrinator, elucidated his harrowing predicament; as follows: "I went over to bask in the smiles of my fiancée and discovered that it was sewing circle afternoon and the sitting-room was invested by many matrons, both young and sere, and sat me down on the vine-clad porch to await their departure; and to my first indifferent but very presently horrified ears were wafted snatches of their conversation, running something like this: 'The food is liable to disagree with its little stomach, and you must experiment with a variety of milks from different cows, invariably sterilizing it, and try various foods, until you discover exactly the right one. My second had the colle almost every night for six weeks and screamed for hours without intermission. It never slept longer than half an hour at a time and neither my husband or me had a minute's rest, day or night. And then teething set in. Whooping cough followed, and measles, scarlet fever, hives, and—' Then I fled. I don't know where I shall stop and—" "You are quite excusable, sir!" returned the wayfarer, who had lived long and knew much. "Pray, don't mention it!"—Puck. A PECULIAR ALLIANCE. That Made by the Doctors and the W. C. T. U. For the purpose of fighting "patent" medicines the doctors, as represented by the American Medical Association, have made an alliance with the W. C. T. U. who have been deceived into believing that the alcohol in "patent" medicines is a menace. In this alliance the good ladies of the W. C. T. U. are apparently put in the position of dragging chestnuts out of the fire for their allies. There is no class so firmly convinced of the necessity for alcohol in medication as the doctors who, with a few exceptions, not only prescribe it freely but use it, as indeed they must whether they would prefer to or not, as a solvent and preservative. On the other hand the W. C. T. U. contends that the whole medical and pharmaceutical world is in error; that alcohol is not only useless but that it is dangerous and harmful in any quantity in any medicinal preparation. While their principles are so wholly at variance the doctors and the W. C. T. U. ladies have cheerfully allied themselves in a war on "patent" medicines, and the W. C. T. U. is placed in an even more ridiculous position by reason of the fact that the doctors do not confine their fight to those medicines which contain alcohol, but lump all "patent" medicines in one class. And this, too, despite the fact that, according to figures printed in the Journal of the American Medical Association, about 70 per cent of physicians' prescriptions are for "patent" or "proprietary" medicines. The inability of many physicians to prescribe any but ready-to-use remedies is frequently commented upon by the medical press, and by physicians of the better class when assembled in conventions. That three-fourths of the physicians graduated each year in the United States are incompetent and a peril to the communities in which they practice was charged openly at the annual meeting of the Committee on Medical Education of the American Medical Association, held in Chicago in April of this year. The total number of graduates annually was placed at 4,000 which means that at least 3,000 incompetents are turned loose annually. It was stated at this meeting that an average of 58 per cent of the graduates from medical colleges failed to pass state examinations. Those failures either go back to school, or go to some state where the requirements are not so high. That many doctors are so ignorant in matters pertaining to pharmacy that they know nothing about the properties of the drugs they prescribe, was stated by Dr. M. Clayton Thrush, a professor in the Medico-Chirurgical College at Philadelphia in an address before the Annual Convention of the American Medical Association at Atlantic City in June of this year. Dr. Henry Beats, Jr., President of the Board of Medical Examination for the State of Pennsylvania, in an interview in the daily papers said: "About one quarter of the papers show a degree of illiteracy that renders the candidates for licensure incapable of understanding medicine." He criticizes the colleges for awarding degrees in these cases. Wisdom on Tap. Mrs. Green, who was deeply absorbed in a romance of the 17th century, suddenly paused and looked at her husband. "Gregory," she said, "listen to this: 'By my halidom,' exclaimed Sir Hardyne, 'it is past the hour of 12!' What is a halidom?" "What do you suppose it is?" responded Mr. Green, with a frown. "Can't you tell from the context Maria? Sir What's his-name said it was past the hour of 12 by his halidom, didn't be? I should think any one could tell from that sentence that he had just consulted his halidom. Halidom is the old English name for watch, of course! Why is it that some women don't seem to be able to exercise their reasoning faculties?"—Stray Stories. He gazed upon her in fond admiration. He loved her to distraction. Lovers had loved before, lovers might love again, but no lover might, could, would, or should love as he loved Dora. The sun shone Dora, the birds sang Dora, the wild flowers in the hedges, oh! they were all Doras to a bud. And then Ferdinand exclaimed with startling suddenness: "What in the world ever induced you, Dora, to care for a fellow like me?" "I really don't know, but pa threatens to send me to a brain specialist." What is Castoria. CASTORIA is a harmless substitute for Castor Oil, Paregoric, Drops and Soothing Syrups. It is pleasant.
