FASHION'S DECREE IN GLOVES
Models for All Occasiona Are Displayed, and Most of Them Are Attractive.
Gloves especially adapted for tennis playing girls are of one button length in white or yellow chamois, a material which will not only withstand bolling but become softer and more flexible with every laundering.
The most practical gloves for golfing are the mousquetaires of colored mocha, which come with quite long wrists. For driving and riding there is nothing quite so smart as the white leather gloves with black buttons, stitching and gauntlets.
Tan, mode, white and black gloves for the street are of fine French glace kid in three and six button lengths and of finely spun silk, with double finger tips and composition clasp fastenings.
Young girls' summer party gloves are of white or delicately tinted twisted silk in elbow lengths. They are seamless, the thumbs hemstitched and some of them are exquisitely embroidered.
Hat of silver gray chip lined with black satin, a long wreath of delicate silver roses shaded by a silver gray aigrette mixed with marabou.
Slippers of Net.
A ahoemaker, in his search for something new, has invented an evening slipper of Russian net over colored satin linings. The heels are colored to match. There is a jeweled buckle at the toe in any appropriate stones. Cloth of gold slippers are in fashion for all gowns trimmed with gold lace, and some bronze slippers embroidered with beads cost as much as a gown.
There is also a fashion to have the top of boots made of bengaline and erawetene leather. The absurdities will soon become as famous as the millinery ones.
Glove Mending.
To mend gloves properly, never use silk, as it cuts the kid. Select instead cotton the exact shade of the gloves and with a very fine needle buttonhole around the rip or tear; then catch together on the wrong side, taking one stitch at a time from one loop of the buttonhole stitch to another. When the rent is joined in this way it is scarcely perceptible and wears longer than if sewed through the glove.
THE GAZETTE
Popular Type of Embroidery That Is Without Rival in Conventional Designs.
A type of embroidery that is specially adapted to conventional designs is the Syrian work, that gives an effect of overlapping scales. The designs which are stamped for this embroidery are divided into sections by lines running at regular intervals across the scrolls and other figures.
The method of working is both simple and rapid. The sections are filled in with a filling cotton and then worked in satin stitch following the growth of scroll. Three sides of section are then outlined so that the design when finished looks as if one scale sprung out of the other.
This is particularly effective for borders or table covers or sofa pilows or the centerpieces made of homespun linen used on tables between meals.
As the embroidery is done in Turkish floss or other heavy, glossy silk suitable for large designs, it works up quickly, yet has a headsome solid surface. There is room for infinite variety of shadings but it is well to keep the designs if possible in several tones of the same color. Thus a line of reds makes an attractive coloring or old blue Chinese greene and yellow verging to orange.
Care of the Skin.
care of the skin.
When the skin is delicate and inclined to chafe from heat talcum powder may be used profusely. For this a big, soft puff is the best for the body and the dust should be thick enough to form a layer over the flesh. Several times a day and always after bathing, it must be put on. Any kind of powder answers the purpose - magnesia, French chalk, arrow root, etc. The point is to use enough. Cream of tartar water is as cooling as soda and is mixed in the same way. Sometimes only a combination of grease and powder will allay severe inflammation. For instance, carbolized vaseline, although it stings when first put on, is particularly good for such cases, being healing as well and soothing. Care must be taken to have the surface clean before it is applied and then powder in large quantity may be dusted on. Repeating these layers three or four times will make a paste that will adhere for many hours and is useful for the occasion when one is unable to renew the application.
Convenient.
If you will take a strip of burlap, tickling or any stout goods, and tack it in the closet you will find it most convenient for pinning skirts to. A piece a yard and a half long will be heavy enough to pin a half-dozen skirts to. Florists' pins are useful in attaching dresses to the strip or safety pins can be used.
Bottled Feathers
The best way to keep plumes, especially nice ones, from one season to another is to place them in glass jars, fastening the cover securely. If white ones are put away in this manner sprinkle them with magnesia and when removed for use they will be light, clean and as fluffy as whee new.

A. Swell Social Function.
Unquestionably the finest 6 o'clock dinner and musicale given by any of our people in this city within the year, was that of Tuesday evening at the beautiful residence of Mr. and Mrs. Walter B. Wright, No.1348 858 st. N. W. it was in honor of their house guests, Mrs. Samuel L. Parker and son, Granville, of Colton (the owner of the city years ago). At the Misses Rennetta and Bertha Monmouth of the same city, guests of the Misses Georgie, Cora and Emma Fields of E 35th st. The table was certainly a thing of beauty and its artistically arranged floral decorations, and valuable silver plates, etc., and glass. Those present in addition to those named above were: C. Powell, Miss Edith Wright, the Wright, and Father of Mr. and Mrs. Wright and Hon. Harry C. Smith. The following menu was served most satisfactorily indeed:
Fruit Cocktail
Cupby
Potatoe Straws Cucumbers in Oil Boston Brown Potatoes
With the exception of Mr. and Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Parker, Messrs. Powell and Smith, all furnished at least two numbers of the musicale's program and they were certainly exceptionally good, far above the average. Young Mr. Parker isa most promising violinist, and the Misses Monmouth and Miss Fields, are pianists whom it is a great pleasure and privilege to hear at any time. The same is true of the other two Misses Fields, vocalists, especially Miss George, who has much more than a soprano exceptional merit. The surprise of the evening however was the solo and duet so nicely played by young Miss Edith and a still younger sister. Their parents have every reason to feel, not only hopeful, but also proud of them. It was 10:30 p. m. when their guests regretfully took departure, all loud in their praises of the excellent host and hostess for the sweetest social function of the year.
From President Taft's Winter Home!
The legislature of Georgia has adjourned—to the great satisfaction of the citizens. The "educational bill," which provided that every child should attend school until its 14th year for a period of at least three months in the year, did not even come up for consideration. The Georgians were evidently afraid to learn children to attend too much—Chi-12, 1899. (Ambassador (German), August 12, 1899. (Translation for The Gazette by Jacob Egberth.)

Columbus, O.—After eight years of married life, Alfred Michael Haberman, (white), returned last Saturday from Washington, D.C., to their home on Summit street, and shot his Afro-American wife twice. He then turned to himself inflicting a wound that will kill a fatal Mrs. Haberman is still living, a Mrs. survive, the doctors say. She was a beautiful woman and had no apparent traces of Negro blood. The couple have a seven-year-old son. The wife before her marriage to Haberman, has Virginia Pillow, the daughter of aunt Tina Tumfer and a storage man of Columbus. The father, a recently leaving an estate estimated at $200,000 was of Negro parentage, although almost white in color. His mother was a white woman. The daughter inherited much of the property and built the handmade suburb of Crestview, a beautiful tragedy occurred. It is not known whether the Haberman family had had any trouble prior to Saturday's tragedy. Many of our people of Columbus knew that Mrs. Haberman was part Negro and her husband had not been ignorant of the fact for the eight years they were married, bedding that her father was part Negro although her mother was a white woman and, knowing the fact, he married her for her beauty and the small fortune she inherited. Haberman is her second husband. Her son, Ernest had been left in a private school at Conneaut since he was old enough to go to school.

The Next Mayor of Cleveland—Facts as to Him and County Recorder Herman C. Baehr.
Before and after he was elected the first time seven years ago, County Recorder Hermann Baehr, who has about 40 male and female clerks and copyists in his office, was asked by the editor of The Gazette to appoint one of our young men and one of our young women to positions in his office as a clerk and copyist, respectively. This was a modest request considering the fact that the Afro-American voters of this county constitute practically one-fourth of its total Republican vote. This entitles us to four positions in the recorder's office instead of two. For seven long years, in spite of the fact that he has a representative of nearly every other class or race of people in the community, in his office as clerks and copyists, Recorder Baehr has steadfastly refused to appoint any member of our race to any position within his gift, and now comes forward as a candidate for the Republican nomination for mayor, begging us for votes. The duty of every self and race-respecting Afro-American in this community is perfectly clear as far as Mr. Baehr's latest candidacy is concerned.
Hon. Robert E. McKisson, when mayor of the city, appointed more Afro-Americans to positions than any other Republican mayor in the history of Cleveland. This is a well-know and generally recognized FACT. Then too, he is the only member of the party who, as mayor, has had any opportunity to make a record on the street car question (the burning issue of the campaign) which commends him to the masses of the people of this city. In point of ability and as a campaigner, he is recognized by all men, well acquainted with him and Mr. Beaer, as being greatly the latter's superior. His platform, which he announced recently, is one of the very best things that any candidate for office in the city of Cleveland has ever issued, and has commended his candidacy, for the Republican nomination for mayor this fall, to the great masses of Republicans and intelligent people generally, in the strongest possible manner. It is certainly an exceptionally strong and concise statement, showing unmistakably an exceptional familiarity with municipal affairs, and a most commendable determination to do those things most needed by Great er Cleveland and in the shortest possible time, if nominated and re-elected to the position of mayor this fall. And, that is exactly what we expect to see done because of the phenomenal growth in popularity of his candidacy within the week.
If Mayor Tom Johnson is to be defeated in November, the Republicans of this community must be led by a fearless and sterling campaigner, a man whose exceptional knowledge of municipal affairs, and whose record on the burning issue of the campaign, are such as to commend him to the masses of the people of this city. Such a man, is ex-Mayer Robert E. McKisson.
NO NEGRO NEED APPLY
For seven long years Recorder Baehr has refused to appoint any Afro-American to any position in his office, 'though asked to do so three different times by the editor of this paper, The Gazette.
Now he is begging us for votes again—for the fourth time.
Wonder "what he takes us for?"
In 1900, the editor of The Gazette, then a member of the legislature, led the fight that made Haile Mussolini a member of the park board. HE is indebted to the RACE, and not it, to him.

Another Southern Editor on Taft.
President Wm. Tatt's Southern Policy and attitude towards the Negro in the South will work more mischief and do the Negro race more harm than all the presidents that we have had since our emancipation. The attitude toward the South towards the Negro and especially the Negro officehold is not favorable under any circumstances. And yet the Negro is better prepared today for office than ever before in his history. Why not get off the poor Negro's back and let him pick himself up? We are American citizens and who have very right guaranteed to us under the constitution of the U.S. We are here to live and to die to spend and be spent for the cause of our great Country and why not allow us a chance as a man and as an American citizen: To vote, hold office, to be elected as legislators, representatives, acquire property and protected as a heir other American citizen. Who has come the spirit that is gradually coming up back into slavery—Mobile, (Ala.) Press.

Oil Strikes Enrich Poor—Squaw Men
‘and Afro-Americans are Among
Those Made Wealthy by Dis-
paste unite at Roa
Guthrie, Okla.—The richest Indian
citizens of Oklahoma, the richest Afro-
American citizens of the state, and
many of the richest white men’ have
Decome so because of the phenominal
ofl and natural gas strikes made in old
Indian territory. It was a lucky Indian
or Negro freeman who happened to
haye his land allotted in this: marvel-
ously productive oil belt, and it was
even & more lucky squaw man whose
martiage with an Indian woman has
placed him in control of land in this
district.
Zeke Moore, a Creek Indian freeman
now the richest Afro-American in the
‘southwest, was a minor and a prisoner
in the federal penitentiary at Leaven-
{worth when the oll strike was made in
the now famous Glenn Poo! field. He
was in the penitentiary when he be-
came of age and was induced while
still a prisoner to sign several leases
to his land allotment, a 160-acre tract
near Tulsa. ‘The land is worth $500,
000, and by a decision of the United
States District court at Muskogee,
‘Moore is entitled to 10 per cent royal-
ties from all oll taken from the wells
on, this land.
‘Aids Race With Wealth.
Among the leases which Moore sign-
ed while he was a prisoner was one
covering 120 acres on his land which
he made over to R. 8. Litchfield, who,
it {s understood, represented the
Standard Oil Company, Recently
the state Supreme court of Oklahoma
made a ruling that will even increase
the wealth of Moore by giving him
an opportunity to obtain royalties also
from eleven wells that have been drill-
ed on the forty acres of land, which 1s
not covered by the Litchfield lease.
Obtaining his release from prison
something like two years ago, Moore
found himself one of the wealthiest
citizens of the new state. Since that
time he has aided numerous projects
in the state for the betterment of the
race and has given ‘iberally toward
the maintenance of our Halochee
school at Taft. He has promised the
school additional donations of money

TAFT MADE A TARGET.
Says a leading daily paper of recent
date: "Congressman Palmer, chair-
man of Pennsylvania's state conven-
tion, made a ferocious attack on the
Taft. administration. He character-
ized the culmination of the tariff fight
in congress ‘as one of the most clever
tricks of legislative jugglery ever re-
corded in the annals of parliamentry
government.” Said he, “If the pres-
{dent had been but half as anxious to
save the pennies of the workingman
by giving them cheaper cotton goods
as he was to save the dollars of the
steel trust by dumping into its mills
its raw materials at much reduced ex-
pense, his name would have been en-
shrined in the hearts of the poor, as
his praises are now sung in the count-
ing houses of protected wealth.”
After declaring for freedom of the
press, of conscience, and of speech,
and “the equality before the law of all
citizens,” the Pennsylvania Demo-
cratic platform goes on, to express it-
self on the just rights of capital and
labor respectively, etc., coming out
“strong for union labor.” If the Dem-
ocratic party of Pennsylvania is In
earnest in this matter, there ia at
least one good reason why Afro-Amer-
icans of that state should vote its
ticket in that state this fall at least.
However, before making their choice,
they should have a painstaking, plain
and unequivecal explanation of the
important phrase, “Equality before
the law of all citizens,” since, while
they are in every sense full citizens,
equals legally to the whites, this mat:
ter {s sometimes lost sight of in the
administration of the law, in Pennsyl-
vania and elsewhere! Whenever the
Democratic party rises above race and
class prejudice, its victory is assured,
because merited; but not until it gets
out of the-“before the war" rut. No
reactionary party deserves victory!!
‘The position of the Afro-American
as regards his attitude toward either
of the so-called “great” parties is a
pecullar one, a delicate one. To be
more particular, neither of them have
dealt honestly by him. The Repub:
liean party no more go, in spite of
its effusive flattery in the “Ohio” plat-
form—vague as the friendship of its
sponsor, William Howard Taft—and
ts more verbose and apparently more
Zecided expression in the party plat-
form adopted in Chicago at the time
of the nomination by “steamroller”
methods of Theodore Roosevelt's
choice for—the people! Thousands of
Republicans voiced their protests on
‘the day of ‘the “nomination,” against
this shameful arrogance of the “Lord
Protector” Roosevelt. It was in vain;

that in considering the pain which

empiricists have contended for the
nonhuman status of the Negro. We

doctrine, for we have seen that mon-

Plans Force of at Least 200,000 Men—
‘Our Race Praised by
Expert.
Paris, France.—Plans of the new
ministry of war include the for-
mation of a French Negro army of not
fewer than 200,000 men, drawn mostly
‘on the conscription system from the
French West African colonies, but in-
eluding about 16,000 Negroes already
under arms and 4,000 or 5,000 forming
a colonial militia without regular army
standing. ‘This plan, which originates
with Col. Mangin, the expert on Afri-
can matters, has obtained the approval
of Gen. Brun, the minister of war, and
will be placed before parliament as
soon as the session opens.
Considered Excellent Soldier.
Col, Mangin says that his experi-
ence has convinced him that the Negro
makes an excellent soldier, his staying
qualities and loyalty being at least
‘equal to those of the whites, while his
courage never has been questioned.
Writing in a military journal, Col Man-
gin adds that the American civil war
proved this over and over again and
that if degeneracy of the black race
has been shown In intellectual pur-
suits certainly this has not been the
case when the bugle was sounding the
charge.

“In France, where we make no dif-
ferences, social or otherwise, because
of the color of the skin,” said Col
Mangin: “The Negro ulways has de
veloped rapidly.”

My Dear Mr. Smith: —TI take great
pleasure in extending to you my con:
gratulations upon the 27th annivers-
ary of your paper, which is one of the
best papers published in the interest
of our people. During this period its
editor has been fearless in the defense
of the race, and at the same time with
no unsparing band pointed out our
short comings.
Again as one I have to thank you
for the stand your paper took in be:
half of one of the ablest as well as
one of the noblest men in this country
today, a true friend of the race and
‘one who has gone to political defeat
in his effort to redress some of our
wrongs at the hands of the National

SON FORAKER.
‘AS you have passed your silver an
niversary, I hope the same head will
conduct ‘as successfully until lone af-
ter it has passed the golden date of its
birth,
Wishing you abundant success in
this your chosen field of labor, I am,

TROUBLE IN ROYAL PALACE
Tidings Borne by Amateur Actor Sufficient to Lead Hearers to Expect the Worst.
The Shakespeare club of New Orleans used to give amateur theatrical performances that were distinguished for the local prominence of the actors. Once a social celebrity, with a gorgeous costume, as one of the lords in waiting, had only four words to say: "The queen has swoooned." As he stepped forward, his friends applauded vociferously. Bowing his thanks, he faced the king and said, in a high-pitched voice: "The swoon has queered."
There was a roar of laughter; but he waited patiently, and made another attempt: "The swoon has cooed."
Again the walls trembled and the stage manager said, in a voice which could be heard all over the house: "Come off, you doggoned foot." But the ambitious amateur refused to surrender, and in a rasping falseto, as he was assisted off the stage, be screamed: "The coon has sweened."—Success Magazine.
GAVE HER AN IDEA.
Cycle Dealer—Here is a cyclometer I can recommend. It is positively accurate; not at all like some cyclometers, which register two miles, perhaps, where you have only ridden one.
Miss de Byke—You haven't any of that kind, have you?
Severe
Samuel Gompers was talking in the smokeroom of the Baltic about a recent newspaper attack on a rich corporation.
"It was a cruel attack." Mr. Gompers chuckled. "It was as cruel as the Jonesville Clarion's paragraph about old Deacon Hiram Ludlow.
This paragraph headed the Clarion's obituary column. It said:
"Deacon Hiram Ludlow of Frisle township, aged 82, passed peacefully away on Thursday last from single blessedness to matrimonial bliss after a short but severe attack by Marla Higgins, a blooming widow of 37 summers."—Detroit Journal.
Your Salary
The universe pays every man in his own coin; if you smile, it smiles upon you in return; if you frown, you will be frowned at; if you sing, you will be invited into gay company; if you think, you will be entertained by thinkers; and if you love the world and earnestly seek for the good that is therein, you will be surrounded by loving friends, and nature will pour into your lap the treasures of the earth. Censure, critise and hate, and you will be censured, criticised and hated by your fellow men.—N. W. Zimmerman.
And Ma Fainted
"Why did she refuse you?" she asked her son, with fine scorn.
"Well," the boy replied between his sobs, "she objects to our family. She says pa's a loafer, that you're too fat and that everybody laughs at Dayse Mayme because she's a fool and talks about nothing but the greatness of her family." (Chauneyce threw water in his mother's face, but at three o'clock this afternoon she was still in a swoon, with four doctors working on her.)—Atchison (Kan.) Globe.
They Were Good Mothers
Elizabeth Cady Stanton is quoted as saying that a woman's first duty is to develop all her powers and possibilities, that she may better guide and serve the next generation. Mrs. Stanton raised seven uncommonly healthy and handsome children, says an admirer of hers, and the children of Mrs. Julia Ward Howe testify to the virtues of the noted woman as a mother. The eagle may be as good a mother as the hen or the goose.
It's as difficult for some people to let go as it is for others to catch on.
BAD DREAMS Caused by Coffee.
"I have been a coffee drinker, more of less, ever since I can remember, until a few months ago I became more and more nervous and irritable, and finally I could not sleep at night for I was horribly disturbed by dreams of all sorts and a species of distressing nightmare.
"Finally, after hearing the experience of numbers of friends who had quit coffee and were drinking Postum, and learning of the great benefits they had derived, I concluded coffee must be the cause of my trouble, so I got some Postum and had it made strictly according to directions.
"I was astonished at the flavour and taste. It entirely took the place of coffee, and to my very great satisfaction, I began to sleep peacefully and sweetly. My nerves improved, and I wish I could wean every man, woman and child from the unwholesome drug—ordinary coffee.
"People really do not appreciate or realize what a powerful drug it is and what terrible effect it has on the human system. If they did, hardly a pound of it would be sold. I would never think of going back to coffee again. I would almost as soon think of putting my hand in a fire after I had once been burned. "A young lady friend of ours had stomach trouble for a long time, and could not get well as long as she used coffee. She finally quit coffee and began the use of Postum and is now perfectly well. Yours for health." Read "The Road to Wellville," in pkks. "There's a Reason." Ever read the above letter? A new one appears from time to time. They recur, true, and full of human interest.

A Word of Hope for Despairing Ones
Kidney trouble makes weak, weary, worn women. Backache, hp pain, dizziness, headaches, nervousness, language, urinary troubles make women suffer untold misery. Alling kidneys are the cause.

I had terrible pains in my body and limbs and the urine was annoying and full of sediment. I got worse and doctors failed to help. I was discouraged. Doan's Kidney Pills brought quick relief and a final cure and now I am in the best of health." Remember the name—Doan's. Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y.
THOSE NEW HATS.

"What's the use," said Maudie—
"I have it on my head."
The Newer Way.
Many ideas in regard to women have entirely changed, and among the better and wiser changes is that old thought that the women who were given to good works must needs be dowdy. It is undeniable that "good" women used to wear dowdiness as a sort of hall mark of virtue. As a matter of fact, dowdiness is merely a mark of bad taste and a sign of some lack in the mind. Women are no longer lacking in the wisdom that chooses pretty rather than ugly clothing, and those who do not make the best of their appearance are losing a golden opportunity of giving pleasure.
Aid Fight Against Tuberculosis.
At the recent meeting of the National Association of Bill Posters, held in Atlanta, Ga., it was decided to donate to the campaign against tuberculosis $1,200,000 worth of publicity. The bill posters in all parts of the United States and Canada will fill the vacant spaces on their 3,500 bill boards with large posters illustrating the ways to prevent and cure tuberculosis. The Association has also granted $200,000 worth of printing and paper for this work. This entire campaign of billboard publicity will be conducted under the direction of the National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis in co-operation with the National Bill Posters' association.
Fitted for the Job.
The general consulted the topographical chart. "You understand, colonel," he said, "that this charge on the enemy's fortification necessitates the most reckless disregard for human life?" "I understand, general," the colonel replied. "The forlorn hope that leads the movement will be composed exclusively of amateur chauffeurs."
Self-Made.
"In this respect, if you must know," replied the orator. "I made myself popular with men who had a pull and thus obtained my present lofty position."
Prepared for the Worst.
"How long had your wife's first husband been dead when you married her?"
"About eight months."
"Only eight months? Don't you think she was in a good deal of a hurry?"
"Oh, I don't know. We had been engaged for nearly two years."

CRYING NEED, AS HE SEES IT.
Companion of Irritated Divines Game to the Front with Order to the Waiter.
Joaquin Miller is to establish a colony of poets in Fruitvale, Cal. Mr. Miller, discussing this colony recently, said:
"We poets will, of course, argue and squabble. That will be delightful. Arguments and squabbles over Matthew Arnold, Swinburne, Tennyson, and Keats are pleasant and sensible things, you know. They are not like political or religious arguments, which in their bitter rancor always make me think of three Maine divines.
"While three Maine divines were supping together, two of them began to argue about the comparative religious merit of the royal houses of Stuart and Orange. The argument became heated. The divines grew excited and angry.
"William III. was a great rascal, roared the first, as he struck the table with his fist. 'A great rascal, and I spit upon his memory!'
"The second divine turning very red, shouted:
"No, 'it's James II. that was the rascal. I sit upon his memory!' At this point the third divine rang that I have to wait for: 'Splittons for two, please.'
Mr. Hardup—Good morning, Miss Aughtunn—ahem! There is something I have been wishing to ask you for some time, but—er—the fact is, I haven't been able to screw up enough courage to—er—come to the point.
Miss Aughtunn—A proposal at last!
Mr. Hardup—Could you, my dear Miss Aughtumn—could you lend me five dollars?
The Artless Boy
The boy bowed politely to the grocer.
"I understand," he said, "that you want a boy, sir. Will you kindly look me over."
"Only pay $3," said the grocer, abruptly.
"I understood," said the boy, "that you paid four."
The grocer nodded.
"I did pay four," he said, "until I saw in the paper the other day that Millionaire Rogers began his business career on $3 a week."
The boy smiled.
"But I don't expect to be a millionaire," he said. "I don't care to be rich—I'd much rather be good."
The grocer was so much pleased with this artless reply that he compromised with the boy for three and a half.
A Realist.
"I am a great believer in realism," remarked the poet.
"Yes? we queried with a rising inflection, thereby giving him the desired opening.
"I sometimes carry my ideas of realism to a ridiculous extreme," continued the poet.
"Indeed!' we exclaimed inanely, somewhat impatient to reach the point of his witticism.
"Yes," continued the poet, "the other day I wrote a sonnet to the gas company and purposely made the meter defective."
At this point we fainted.
In 4 A. D. Fearaidhach-Flonfashnast was an irish king, a "most just and good prince," who was slain by his successor, Flachadh-Fion, who was treated to a similar fate by Flinchadh-Flonohud, "the prince with the white cows," who died at the hands of "the Irish plebels of Connaught." Eochair-Moldmeodhail, was one of the half dozen who died of natural causes, and Flathbheartgaill was one of the two to resign the monarch's scepter for the monk's cowl.-New York Press.

THE SECRET OF HAPPINESS.
Unselfishness in Life is the OneThing
That Will Transform All
Things to Gold.
The moment we set about the task of making every human being we come in contact with better for knowing us—more cheerful, more courageous, and with greater faith in the kindness of God and man—that moment we begin to attain the third purpose of life—personal happiness.
Would you possess the magic secret of the alchemist which transforms all things to gold?
It is unselfishness—or, to use a better word, selflessness.
He who goes forth bent upon being always kind, always helpful, in the little daily events of life, will find all skies tinted with gold, all his nights set with stars, and unexpected flowers of pleasure springing up in his pathway.
And all his tears shall turn into smiles—Brooklyn Eagle.
IN AGONY WITH ECZEMA.
Whole Body a Mass of Raw, Bleeding,
Torturing Humor—Hoped Death
Would End Fearful Suffering.
In Despair; Cured by Cuticura.
"Words cannot describe the terrible eczema I suffered with. It broke out on my head and kept spreading until it covered my whole body. I was almost a solid mass of sores from head to foot. I looked more like a piece of raw beef than a human being. The pain and agony endured seemed more than I could bear. Blood and pus dozed from the great sore on my scalp, from under my finger nails, and nearly all over my body. My ears were so crusted and swollen I was afraid they would break off. Every hair in my head fell out. I could not sit down, for my clothes would stick to the raw and bleeding flesh, making me cry out from the pain. My family doctor did all he could, but I got worse and worse. My condition was awful. I did not think I could live, and wanted death to come and end my frightful sufferings.
"In this condition my mother-in-law begged me to try the Cicutura Remedies. I said I would, but had no hope of recovery. But oh, what blessed relief I experienced after applying Cicutura Ointment. It cooled the bleeding and itching flesh and brought me the first real sleep I had had in weeks. It was as grateful as ice to a burning tongue. I would bathe with warm water and Cicutura Soap, then apply the Ointment freely. I also took Cicutura Resolvent for the blood. In a short time the sores stopped running, the flesh began to heal, and I knew I was to get well again. Then the hair on my head began to grow, and in a short time I was completely cured. I wish I could tell everybody who has eczema to use Cicutura. Mrs. Wm. Hunt, 135 Thomas St., Newark, N. J., Sept. 28, 1908." Potter Drug & Chem, Corp. Sole Propa. Boston.

A Financial Epigram.
"H. H. Rogers," said a New York broker, "always advised young men to get hold of capital. He used to point out to them that without capital a man could do nothing, nothing. He used to pack this truth into a very neat epigram.
"Fortune," he used to say, 'can't knock at the door of a man who has no house."

Dr. F. Gerald Blattner, of Buffalo, N. Y. says: "Your Castoria is good for children and I frequently prescribe it, always obtaining the desired results." Dr. Gustave A. Elsengreae, of St. Paul, Minn., says: "I have used your Castoria repeatedly in my practice with good results, and can recommend it as an excellent, mild and harmless remedy for children."
Dr. S. A. Buchanan, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "I have used your Castoria in the case of my own baby and find it pleasant to take, and have obtained excellent results from its use."
Dr. J. E. Simpson, of Chicago, Ill., says: "I have used your Castoria in cases of colle in children and have found it the best medicine of its kind on the market."

Dr. L. R. Robinson, of Kansas City, Mo., says: "Your Castoria certainly has merit. It is not its age, its continued use by mothers through all these years, and the many attempts to imitate it, sufficient recommendation? What can a physician add? Leave it to the mothers."
Dr. Edwin F. Pardee, of New York City, says: "For several years I have recommended your Castoria and shall always continue to do so, as it has favariably produced beneficial results."
Dr. N. B. Sizer, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I object to what are called patent medicines, where maker alone knows what ingredients are put in them, but I know the formula of your Castoria and advise its use."
