Combinations in Shades One of the Main Things in Dress. Many persons have excellent taste for colors, but not combinations of shades. The following are excellent rules for fancy work, interior or exterior house decorations and valuable in suggestions for dress purposes. Cold green contrasts with crimson, purple, white, pink, gold, orange; harmonizes with olive, citron, brown, black and gray. Warm green contrasts with crimson, maroon, red, pink, white, black and lavender; harmonizes with yellow, orange, sky blue, gray, white, brown and buff. Orange contrasts with purple, blues, black, olive, crimson and gray; harmonizes with yellow, red, warm green, brown, white and buff. Russet contrasts with green, black, olive and maroon; harmonizes with red, yellow, orange and brown. Olive contrasts with orange, red, white and maroon; harmonizes with green, blue, black and brown. Green contrasts with colors containing red, white and maroon and harmonizes with colors containing yellow or blue. Orange requires blue, black, purple or dark colors for contrast and warm colors for harmony. Gold contrasts with any dark color, but looks richer with dark tones and least with yellow. Gold's best harmony is white. Dark, bright colors are usually warm. Mourning Veils. Now that the larger hats are admissible in mourning, the question of an appropriate veil is sometimes vexing. Speaking generally, supposing the hat to be on the droopy brim order, or even slightly bent, as over the face and down in the back—for a shape that raises itself at the side is not correct—then the veil may be of crepe or grenadine, falling over the hat down the back, when the hat becomes French mourning. If, however, the brim is perfectly straight and fat (though broad), as the sailor shape, then a face veil of plain net, with or without a border, is worn. Buying Tan Shoes An authority claims that tan shoes should be purchased late in the day, because earlier in the day a much smaller shoe can be comfortably worn, yet will prove a torment later in the day. Tan leather does not "give" like other leather and often shrinks slightly when dampened. For this reason a tan shoe holds its shape much better than a black one, though it must be comfortably fitted when purchased. This should be remembered by mothers buying tan shoes for children, for a pinched shoe is too annoying for anything and doubly so for children. The Children's Table. A friend of mine has a set of small square doilies, which she keeps for the children to use when they have a party or a distinguished guest. They are also used on birthdays, and if a child is ill one of these doilies is sure to grace his tray. They are embroidered with quotations from "Alice in Wonderland," all different, and all concerning things to eat. The children are so fond of these doilies that I think some other mother might like to make her children a set—House keeper. THE GAZETTE Women All Too Prone to Abuse the Crown of Glory. You know, and every woman knows, that women treat their hair to unpar- donable abuse. Women treat their hair to deeper results than any of their other possessions. One night when a woman feels amable and bright she will brush and pat her hair and put a good, refreshing tonic on it, and then braid it down her back. But O! the next night, when she comes home after a bridge party, she will yank the hundred odd hairpins loose and shake her hair away from her head and neck, and hop into bed unmindful of the consequences. The hair needs regular and constant care, and under these conditions only will it flourish. Find some course of treatment which suits your hair and stick to this particular treatment, no matter what happens. To remove the tangles from the hair use a coarse-toothed comb, be sure that the teeth are all smooth and even. Never use a fine-toothed comb on the hair. It splits the shaft of the hair, injures the roots, and brings forth a crop of dandruff. It is not necessary, nor is it a good thing, to brush the hair too much; a dozen or two strokes each night to remove the dandruff, if there is any, and the day's dust and dirt, will sur- WRAP OF CREAM SERGE. Now that the princess modes are so much in vogue the belt counter is not so well patronized as heretofore, and this causes the manufacturers to be more than ever on the alert to produce new lines that will be more than usually tempting. This little accessory will be ever in demand for shirtwaists, and among the novelties of this kind is a soft, flexible belt that looks like crochet. It closes with a mother-of-pearl buckle and is very dainty. Price, 25 cents only. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, MAY 30, 1908. TAFT CANNOT BE NOMINATED THAT IS NOW ESTABLISHED BEYOND ALL QUESTION OR DOUBT. WILL LACK NEARLY 200 VOTES Of Enough to Nominate Him—History Will Repeat Itself as Usual —True Situation as to Delegations. Washington, D. C.—The press bureau of the anti-Taft interests, known as the allies, have given out the following: "An analysis of the final tabulated statement issued by the management of the Taft presidential campaign is all that is necessary to prove that the secretary of war has not enough votes to nominate, now that all the delegates to the Chicago convention have been elected." In this statement 584 votes—33 more than a majority—are claimed for Taft. Admittedly there are included in this number 126 contested votes. As a matter of fact, the number of contested votes will reach nearly 200. In addition 80 uninstructed votes are included in the Taft computation, reckoning the number of instructed and uninstructed votes for Taft to little more than 300. "Every uninstructed delegate signifies the failure of an effort to instruct for Taft, and the failure of such effort implies that even back of an indorsement of Secretary Taft was a doubt as to whether or not his nomination will be approved, the convention meets at Chicago to deliberate on the state of the party. History in Next Thirty Days The realization that the Taft managers, even after having procured the assistance of the captains of predatory wealth, have been unable to push their candidate over the line, coupled with the Republican party's highly developed instinct of self-preservation, will help make history in the next 30 days. The efforts of the Taft managers are naturally being centered upon the creation of the belief that Secretary Taft has enough votes to nominate. The greater the anxiety and uncertainty on this point, the bigger the noise. "History will repeat itself at Chicago. No pre-convention favorite ever won a nomination for president in a Republican convention since the founding of the party, excepting William McKinley, and back of him was a tidal wave of popular sentiment which is not surging for Secretary Taft; and the officeholders and beams of the people, Seward had two-thirds by the delegates to the convention of 1860 pledged Blaine was within 25 votes of a nomination on the first ballot in 1876—nearer than Secretary Taft will be. Machine-Made Candidacy. "The fatal weakness of the Taft candidacy is that it is absolutely machine-made product, not vitalized by popular sentiment. Its bandwagon is loaded down with men who will jump over the wheel the moment the vehicle is in motion of stalling, and the sign is in sight. "The Chicago convention will make a nomination not the product of intimidation, not the result of cowardice on the part of party leadership, not involving the surrender of party proselytics, and a dozen northern and border states, and not imposing upon the Republican party the necessity of proving that the support of predatory wealth has not been secured for the candidacy at the sacrifice of the pollination of the progressive wing of the Republican party has led to believe it represents." EJOTOUS DEBATE ON SUFFRAGE Disfranchisement Resolution Starts a Row—Proposition Distracked Until September Amid Disorder—Chairman Splits Gavel. Jefferson City, Mo. A hot fight over the question as to whether the Afro-American should be disfranchised in Missouri was the exciting feature of the Democratic state convention May 20, both in its opening stages and bordered on the rolotus. The convention went on record, however, as opposed at this time to depriving the Afro-American of his right of suffrage, but will resume consideration of the proposition when the party next meets in convention in September. Ed. Harber of Grundy and Gov. Dockery led the opposition when Mayor Tom Crittenden threw his hand through a resolution of disfranchise, as a minority report after the committee on resolutions had ejected it by a vote of 12 to 4. Chairman Breaks Gavel. Chairman Breaks Gavel. Mr. Crittenden, at the very opening of the convention, sought to get his resolution before the delegates. Pandemonium ensued. Punditutes and Temporary Chairman Arkinson's efforts to restore order by a vigorous use of the gavel splintered that instrument into utter ruin. A heavy steel hammer was substituted for it and it required the exercise of vigor, even with this unusual symbol of harmony, to bring about a measure of quiet. Jim Conran of New Madrid, a section of the state where the Negro was represented, criticized as for the Republican ticket, protested against the reading of the resolution before it had been submitted to the committee on resolutions. Mr. Crittenden insisted upon reading, however, declaring: "I have something to say for the best interests of the Democratic party, which, if I cannot say it here and now, I will say elsewhere, want to go greater." Pandemonium ensued. Crittenden was stopped before he got any farther, and on a roll call the resolution was referred by a vote of 612 to 335, St. Louis city voting solidly for reference. When the committee failed to incorporate the resolution in its report, Mr. Crittenden went to the platform and made an impassioned appeal for its adoption. When he concluded, Gov. Dockery took the platform. "We Vote the Blacka," Dockery Says. "The Missouri Democrats," he declared, "will deal with this question when the time comes and will deal with it under the constitution of the United States and not in violation of it. This is not a question of such magnitude that it would not take up the time of this convention. It may have been a political crime to enfranchise 4,000,000 blacks, but we must not forget that we Democrats, now and then, vote these blacks. The trouble in Missouri, let me say to Mr. Crittenden, is not with the Negro vote, but with obstreperous Democrats." After Conran and Harber had spoken against and Guy Kirby of Greene county in favor of the resolution, he wobbled wimplyly defended. Then, on motion of Senator Heather, it was decided to take the matter up again in September. HOW THE DELEGATES STAND.

FORAKER'S SICK SPELLS. (Washington Post.) When Bismarck was in the heyday of his power he was occasionally overcome by sudden and mysterious attacks of illness, in which he retired to Varzin and remained incommunicado for a week or two. Immediately after these sick spells the world invariably learned that somebody—not Bismarck—had put his foot in a tramp, and that Germany had made another conquest. Senator Foraker may be subject to sudden attacks of illness, but it is evident that they are Bismarckian spells, in which he suffers less than those who happen to be opposing him. The temporary retirements of the senator from Ohio are followed so often by something like his letter to John E. Milholland and his friend in reorganizing his mysterious aliments with prehension—not for his physical welfare, but for the welfare of his opponents. WILL NEVER SUPPORT TAFT! OR PRESIDENT "BROWNSVILLE" ROOSEVELT, THEY DECLARE. BOTH BITTERLY DENOUNCED Senator Foraker Indored for Presi dent—An Exceptionally Large and Enthusiastic Meeting —An Ovation Given the Speaker! Columbus, O.—The first response to the appeal to our voters to make a campaign issue of the Foraker bill, for the restoration to the army of "The Black Battalion" by voting only for candidates for congressmen who will promise to favor that bill, was made Monday night by the Joseph Benson Foraker club of this city. At a meeting in Mr. Samuel Clark's beautiful new Dunbart theater in Mt. Vernon avenue, which was packed to the doors, resolutions to that effect and also indorsing Senator Foraker for president were adopted. These resolutions were adopted by Dr. Walter Thomas and were signed by Rev. Dr. E. L. Gillam, who presided; C. J. Carter, Robert B. Barcus, C. P. Loudin and James L. Phillips, were preceded by a "declaration" scoring President Roosevelt as having "willfully, intentionally and deliberately misrepresented, villed and illegally treated our soldiers"; as having used the power of his office to hinder and embarrass the president, and secure justice for the soldiers; as being an enemy of our race and because he had said he was proud that three of his maternal uncles fought under the stars and bars of the Confederate states, which fought to retain slaves. The declaration also scored Secretary of War Taft for indorsing the action of the president, and also on the ground that in his Greensboro speech and in a condemned disfranchisement in the state, then Senator Foraker is commended for having jeopardized his political future by championing the cause of the discharged soldiers, and his course in postponing a vote on the Foraker bill until December is indorsed. An amendment offered by Mr. Wilbun King was adopted giving as a further reason for opposing President Roosevelt for the passage of the Warner bill which would enable him to act as judge and jury in a case he has precluded. The resolutions follow: Resolved. That we hereby pledge ourselves to oppose any man or set of men for political office, from the presidency down, who does not favor the passage of the Foraker bill for the president, or the soldiers discharged without honor, under executive order of the president. And we pledge ourselves to support no man, either black or white, in county or state politics, who does not stand squarely upon the platform of Senator Foraker, in his fight for justice for our fellow citizens, disgraced by the action of President Roosevelt. Resolved, Further, That we hereby give our unqualified endorsement and support to Senator Joseph Benson Foraker, for president of the United States, and we urge the Republican voters of the United States and delegates to the national Republican convention at Chicago, to stand with us in support of Senator Foraker, the peerless Ohio statesman and champion of human rights and human liberty. A resolution offered by Rev. R. D. Brown was adopted demanding the continued maintenance of mixed housing and housing of the proposed Hawthorne avenue school site as being really intended for a separate school for Afro-Americans. Ex-Representative Harry C. Smith of Cleveland, the speaker of the evening, said Senator Foraker had paid out over $1,000 from his own pocket in the Brownsville village, and that the president did not get really angry at the senator until he took up the Brownsville case that after the statehood and state law he were invited to the white house and treated with such consideration that he felt that the president was too big and broad to harbor resentment because of opposition to some of his policies, but after the Brownsville dispute "everything went to sixes and sevents." Mr. Smith said that he had taken a hand in defeating Theodore Burton for mayor of the town and that the elimination from public life of Senator Foraker. The Democrats of the south had disfranchised the Negro at the polls and now the Roosevelt-Taft Republicans in that section were disfranchised him at the primaries by holding "illy white" conventions in southern states to elect delegates to the national Republican convention; that the black Republicans of the town were defeated by Chicago and if the Republican party was still a party of manhood suffrage the "illy white" delegates would be put out of the convention and Taft's candidacy killed. Ohio would never be carried by either Taft or Roosevelt, he declared, nor would Illinois, Indiana, West Virginia, Delaware, New Jersey or New York, Missouri and other heretofore Republican states. Either Foraker or somebody Foraker had sent the state to Chicago Taft in his Greensboro speech had condoned disfranchisement, and in his Lexington speech he had practically indorsed the "Jim Crow" car. A colored quartet from the O. S. U. Glee club sang several selections and closed the evening with "Taft will never guide the ship of state. For about an hour and a half time he had sent a state of enthusiasm as is seldom nessed. Throughout it thundered its unqualified indorsement of his solen id address and at its close gave him SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. an ovation that lasted several minutes. Then the audience and those on the stage surged forward to shake his hand and personally congratulate him. It is a speech and an appeal that will long be remembered by our people of Columbus who were fortunate enough to get into the theater to hear it. It was a speech that did not affect the attendance, apparently, in the slightest. It was truly a wonderful meeting. So was Mr. Smith's discussion of disfranchisement, the "Jim Crow" car system, the Brownsville case. Senator Foraker's grand fight for the race and the present political climate, the scoring of Roosevelt and Taft, which secured him such an outburst of applause repeatedly as few public speakers are complimented with by so large and intelligent a miscellaneous gathering of any class of people. Those in immediate charge of the debate for Foraker club have every reason to feel especially proud of it. It was certainly a grand success. TO SING IN LONDON AND PARIS Harry Burleigh Sings at Home of His Birth. Erie, Pa.—Harry T. Burleigh made his annual appearance in his home town recently at St. Paul's parish house, and the reception tendered him was very enthusiastic. The Erie Dispatch had the following to say regarding his appearance: "The eminent New York baritone, Harry T. Burleigh, was greeted last evening by a large and appreciative audience which gave the artist most adoration which says that a prophet is without glory in his own country, is not an unfailling rule. St. Paul's parish house was filled with Erie's music loving public and Mr. Burleigh's delightfully arranged and charmingly rendered program simply captivated his hearers. He has a voice of pleasing range, sometimes assuming a tenuous tone. He gave five groups of songs, all of which were enthusiastically received. The plantation songs were rendered with that delightful melody which always reaches the hearts of his hearers. In response to an encore Mr. Burleigh gave 'Old Black Joe.' The closing group of songs were made particularly interesting by a short deposition of a poem. The passage to have been present when the gifted young poet, Paul Laurence Dunbar, wrote 'The Deserted Plantation, Damrosch wrote the score and seems to have found an absolutely correct setting for the melodious, half-wedd story, which Mr. Burleigh interprets with such delightful accuracy that one can almost hear the closing number, 'Manda lay,' was given with excellent voice and dramatic power, which elicited long continued applause." Mr. and Mrs. Burleigh are in Eu rope. He expects to sing for Ameri cans in London and Paris until fall Then he will return to New York City Negroes Lead Civilization! Philadelphia, Pa.—Dr. David Randall Maciver of the University of Pennsylvania's archeological expedition to Egypt has returned to America, bringing five tons of specimens to show that at the time of the decline of the Roman empire the Negro race had been highly advanced in the arts and sciences for 706 years. Prof. Maciver stands ready to refute, he says, that the only source of the charm is the only one that never produced a civilization of its own. "Our excavations," he says, "have shown that the source of the civilization of the period which our work in lower Nubia covered was ethiopian. Our antiquities cover every phase of this new school of art. The sculptures are of a barbarian, non-Egyptian type, showing the African African heritage of the Mediterranean." This is the fulb flow to such southern "blather skites" as Tillman, Vardaman, Tom Dixon, Graves, Tom "Tuskegee" Heffin and their ilk. Olean, N. Y., Items Rev. G. H.

As ‘yet we have received no reply and it is therefore fair to presume that his chief, President Roosevelt, is drawing this color line, too, to clinch his de speable action in the Brownsville matter, He wants Metcalf as well as Taft to help him “rub it into” the Afro-American, good and hard.

Y. AGE WRONG AGAIN. For the benefit of our esteemed con- frere of The Age, The Gazette will say what it already ‘knows to be a-fact, and that is that we but quoted Sena: tor Foraker, according to the dis- patches to daily newspapers, when we said more than two weeks ago that he said there would be no adjourn- ment of congress until the Browns- vilie matter was settled. While we were going to press week before last the senator was forced to recognize the fact that adjournment or not, it ‘was impossible to do what he clearly thought possible (pass his soldiers’ vill) when he made the statement, if he made it, Why try to be “smart” as a result of our statement and the action the senator was forced to take about the time it was made? As to our fight against Candidate Burton last fall, The Age nor any one else ever sow a line In The Gazette which “announced boldly (or other- wise) that the senator (Foraker) was (or was not) in favor of the election of Burton as mayor.” Nor did any local paper publish all ‘of any letter the senator sent here during the cam- paign. Had they done so none of them would have appeared, even to the edl- tor of The Age, as “advice to all Re. publicans to support the Burton ticket.” We did, however, make It perfectly clear to all here at home and we be- Meve abroad,,too, with the possible ex- ception of our esteemed N. Y¥. con- frere, that we opposed Candidate Bur ton because it was our duty as a loyal ‘Afro-American, true to Senator For- aker whose eliniination from public life Mr. Burton. repeatedly announced the was seeking to help accomplish. ‘We did this of our own volition and after consultations and conferences with the leading and best members of the race in Cleveland. From the most loyal and best of our people in all sections of the country, Particularly from those in the south, came the almost unanfmous call to op- pose Candidate Burton (because _he Was fighting fo eliminate Senator For. aker) and show the entire country that the Negfo was faithful, true and as loyal to the race's only great and outspoken friend in congress as he was to “The Black Batallion” and the entire race, We did it, and shall al ways feel proud of it because we did our duty to the race and it’s one greai and good white friend. Whatever the costs, and they were heavy, we have paid them, and rest secure in a knowl. edge of the fact that we not only did our duty, but were RIGHT in the course pursued. Ever since we have been great: ly pleased over the results at tained, principally because Afro- Americans of Cleveland, almost en masse, were the first to rise above the plane of partisan and party poll- tles to perform a duty to the race clear to all who were and are loyal to it and it’s friends. In this they have taken @ lead worthy of emulation if we are ever to retain friends and “hold our own” to say nothing of making prog- ress. ‘The effort of The Age to “make light” of things of vastly more import- ance te the race than to individuals, in a disgraceful effort to be “funny” or “smart” and at the same time cater to the Taft candidacy and subsidy, only shows to what depths some Negroes ‘can descend in an effort to serve thefr ‘white political masters, GENERAL OFFICERS ELECTED.

It is said Max Fakeenhueur, manager of the Hippodrome, blames Tom Scanlon, ticket agent, for the recent discrimination against our people at that theater, saying he never gave any such order and that our people should have been given the seats they were able to pay for providing, of course, their conduct and appearance were proper. Mr. Sidney Thompson was married in Nashville, Tenn., on the 18th to a sister of Mrs. Joseph Carroll of Columbus.

Masons, assisted by the local fraternity, will participate in the exercises. Bishop Derrick will be Rev. and Mrs. Collins' guest while in the city June 7. A country editor has been inspired, after looking over his list of delinquent subscribers to compose the following: "How dear to our heart is the old silver dollar, when some kind subscriber presents it to view the city skyline and mount it or collar, and all the strange things which to us seem so new; the wide spreading eagle, the arrows below it, the stars, and the words with the strange things they tell; the coin of our fathers, we glad that we knew it, for some time or other 'twill come in dollar the spangled dollar, the old silver dollar we all love so well." REASONS FOR THAT POST-PONEMENT. The reasons for Senator Foraker's most recent action in the Brownsville matter in reaching the conclusion not to insist on a vote at the present time are as follows: First. A number of Republican senators who are friendly and would naturally vote with the senator for his bill, are up for re-election, and by voting for the measure now they would bring down upon themselves the wrath of some of their constituents who are with President Roosevelt in this matter. Second. If the senate had made it the special order for Thursday, May 14, as moved by Senator Culberson (Democrat) of Texas, the bill would have been talked to death in the senate; and even if it could have passed the senate the Roosevelt-Taft administration influence would have defeated it in the house; so that it could not, in any event, have been enacted into a law at this session of congress. Third. The Democrats tried to force the issue, knowing that it would put the Republican party in this unfavorable position and also put Senator Foraker in a most embarrassing position, making him responsible for any bad results that might result in the coming election, as far as the Republican party is concerned. Fourth. Owing to the short time before adjournment, the Foraker bill could not possibly have been forced through the house. While the Democrats would have voted solidly to get the bill before the senate, they would have joined the Roosevelt-Taft Republicans and voted just as solidly to defeat it there and in the house. Taking these things into consideration, and (having practically the assurance of enough Republican senators to pass the bill this fall) that if a vote on the measure was postponed until December they (the Republican senators) would he in better position to vote for it than at present, and Senator Foraker, having only the interests of the soldiers at heart, and the soldiers at the same time losing nothing by the postponement, he (the senator) after careful consideration, concluded to take the action that he did, and he was right, too. The few Taft subsidized Negroes who have written the senator letters anent the postponement of his bill, that they ought now to feel heartily ashamed of, to say the very least, deserve not only his contempt but that of the entire race. It is simply astonishing what infernal fools some people, black and white, can be at times. An Exquisite Pineapple Salad. A very nice pineapple salad, suitable for a company meal, is made in this way: get two pineapples—which are plentiful in June, by the way—selecting one and one as small as it can be found. Peel the large one and pick the pulp up into good-sized bits and lay it on lettuce (you can use it alone or mix it with halved grapes, or with grapefruit pulp, as you wish, for all are nice), then cut the brush off the little pineapple and scoop out the inside, adding this pulp to the rest as you do, and re-seed it. Place the pineapple in a shell left, and fill it with mayonnaise; put it on a flat dish and pass it after the salad has been passed. The June Dellineator. A Strong Reply. Lima, O.—A very strong letter was recently written by Fred P. Scarles and published in The Daily Gazette of this city in reply to Mrs. S. M. Leedom on the intermarriage of the races. He says that the Negro has a right to marry one of the other race if he so desires and vice versa, because they are both of common parentage, being the sons of Noah. Threw Herself From High Building. New York City—A suicide of a spectacular nature occurred on East Seventy-seventh street last night when a woman of refinement, judging by her appearance, jumped from the roof of a seven-story building and was killed on the pavement.

D., 548 Floor Street, New York JEROME GOES ON WARPATH DEFENDS HIMSELF AGAINST CHARGES OF DERE- LICTION. SAYS HE DID HIS FULL DUTY New York's District Attorney Avers His Course as Public Prosecutor Has Been Guided by Law and Conscience. Elizabethtown, N. Y.—District Attorney Jerome was the central figure on Tuesday in the final proceedings here before Commissioner Hand, appointed by Gov. Hughes to hear testimony in connection with the charges of dereliction in the performance of the district attorney's official duties. Mr. Jerome began his summing up after the filing of a brief by Franklin Pierce, attorney for the complainants. He presented no brief on his own behalf, but will file one for Commissioner Hand's perusal at the conclusion of the hearing. The district attorney's argument occupied the entire day's session. He launched into a lengthy analysis of the motives which animated those most active in bringing the charges against him. He said the proceedings were "dimly and mendacious." "I have lived all my life in the city of New York," said the district attorney, "and the 16 best years of my life there were given to the public service. Twice I have run for office in that city and have been elected, the last time against every political party and all alone; and I consider that I was elected to exercise my judgment in the discharge of the duties of that office and not the judgment of irresponsible editors of yellow journals and what they might say I ought to do. The duties laid upon me in that office and which I have striven to discharge were these: To be fair and just, to apply one law to all persons, not one law to the poor man and another to the rich. I have stood under great pressure before that grand jury room as a southern sheriff has often stood before a southern jail when he knows that the prisoner within is guilty and worthy of punishment, but will allow him to be punished only as the law requires." Regarding the charge that he had refused to advise the grand jury to indict George W. Parkins, in the so-called $50,000 political contribution case, Mr. Jerome said: "It was perfectly plain that Bryan's election would have been followed by a shrinkage in the value of the securities of the New York Life Insurance Co. of 10 to 12 per cent, so that with $450,000,000 worth of securities this contribution by Mr. Parkins was a shrewd movement even if illegal. But was it illegal? There was abundant evidence that the officials of almost every financial institution in New York City had contributed to the Republican party committee to help defeat Bryan, so that if Perkins was guilty, then I had my work cut out for me good and plenty for a year or more ahead. I tried to get a judicial decision in the matter. Judge O'Sullivan refused to take it up and decide it. "The judiciary of New York City was as scared as anybody in New York, because it was on one hand J. J. Palacio, on the other hand the yellow journals." ELECTION OF BISHOPS New Dignitaries Named, M.

"Almost six or seven weeks ago I became paralyzed at all once with rheumatism." writes Mrs. Louis McKey, 913 Seventh street, Oakland, Cal. "It struck me in the back and extended from the hip of my right leg down to my foot. The attack was so severe that I could not move in bed and was afraid that I should be a cripple for life. "About 12 years ago I received a sample bottle of your Liniment but never had occasion to use it, as I have always been well, but something told me that Sloan's Liniment would help me, so I tried it. After the second application I could get up out of bed, and in three days could walk, and now feel well and entirely free from pain. "My friends were very much surprised at my rapid recovery and I was only too glad to tell them that Sloan's Liniment was the only medicine I used." Feeding the Stock. The victim of the following story, told in Mrs. Henry W. Cole's "A Lady's Tour Around Monte Rosa," was possessed of a keen sense of humor. Otherwise his dignity might have been ruffled by the unconscious revelation which came to his ears. "In the course of Mrs. Cole's travels she met Rev. Robert Montgomery, the poet, who told her an incident of his early career in the pulpit. When he was first admitted to holy orders he was appointed curate in a rural Scotch district, and lodged in the house of a small tenant farmer. "Notwithstanding his office of clergyman, the family did not appear to hold their boarder in high veneration, for one day he heard the woman servant call out to her mistress: "Missis, shall I feed the pigs first, or gie the mon his dinner?" —Youth's Companion. Millionaire Whiners Senator La Follette at a recent dinner in Washington said of the millionaires who complain about the harm that they and their affairs have suffered from attacks: "These whiners, with only themselves to blame, remind me of a bad Little Primo boy. "And how did bad Johnny hurt mother's little darling?" "Why, I was a-goin' to punch him in the face, and he ducked his head and I hit my knuckles against the wall." DR. TALKS OF FOOD "What shall I eat?" is the daily intrigue the physician is met with. I do not hesitate to say that in my judgment a large percentage of disease is caused by poorly selected and improperly prepared food. My personal experience with the fully-cooked food, known as Grape-Nuts, enables me to speak freely of its merits. "From overwork, I suffered several years with malnutrition, palatation of the heart and loss of sleep. Last summer I was led to experiment personally with the new food, which I used in conjunction with good rich cow's milk. In a short time after I commenced its use, the disagreeable symptoms disappeared, my heart's action became steady and normal, the functions of the stomach were properly carried out and I again slept as soundly and as well as in my youth. "I look upon Grape-Nuts as a perfect food, and no one can gainsay but that it has a most prominent place in a rational, scientific system of feeding. Any one who uses this food will soon be convinced of the soundness of the principle upon which it is manufactured and may thereby know the facts as to its true worth."

Don't Poison Baby. sleep, and A FEW DROPS TOO MANY will produce the SLEEP FROM WHICH THERE IS NO WAKING.

For Six Months Baby Was Expected to Die with Eczema—Now Well —Doctor Said to Use Cuticura. "Six months after birth my little girl broke out with eczema and I had two doctors in attendance. There was not a particle of skin left on her body, the blood oozed out just anywhere, and we had to wrap her in silk and carry her on a pillow for ten weeks. She was the most terrible eight I ever saw, and for six months I looked for her to die. I used every known remedy to alleviate her suffering, for it was terrible to witness. Dr. C — gave her up. Dr. I — recommended the Cuticura Remedies. She will soon be three years old and has never had a sign of the dread trouble since. We used about eight cakes of Cuticura Soap and three boxes of Cuticura Ointment. James J. Smith, Durmid, Va., Oct. 14 and 22, 1906." The Little Things.
