TWENTY-SEVENTH YEAR. NO. 13. Psyche Coiffure AMERICA Psyche By JULIA BOTTOMLEY. The beautiful hair dress shown here has made a veritable sensation, and it is a pleasure to reproduce it for our readers. Without the small pleasing little skeleton cap shown in the picture, it retains all the fascination of the Psyche collure, and is thoroughly practical for present millinery modes. The hairdresser has taken certain small liberties with her classic model in order to accommodate the collure to the hat and brow of the wearer, and they have turned out to be an improvement, since they enhance the beauty of both the face and hat. The head dress, shown in our photograph, was adapted specially to this collure and leaves nothing to be desired. It may be said in passing that the head dress shown is made of gold ribbon and rhinestone ornaments set in gold. The aigrette at the side is pure white. Every one will see at a glance its simplicity of construction, and appreciate the beauty of this collure ornament. The foundation on which it is fashioned is simply buckram cut in narrow bands and wired before covering with ribbon. It does not require an abundance of natural hair to build this style of coifure. The hair, however, must be waved before it is dressed. The regular ondulation of the Marcel wave may be used, but are not absolutely essential. The hair is parted off in the usual manner, and that portion about the face and neck waved in loose, irregular curves. All the remainder of the hair (much or little) is tied at the back of the head and arranged in a coll. This forms the foundation for the balance of the coifure. If the hair is thick and heavy it will not be necessary to use a roll at all. The hair at each side in this case is simply "ratted," that is, combed toward the scalp instead of from it, and then lightly smoothed with the comb on the outside. It is then brought back to the coll, pinned to it, and the ends fastened under it. A small portion of the waved hair on top of the head is treated in the same Should Be Made to Fit, with an Opening at the Side—Good Tickling Bag. The broom bag may be made a more satisfactory thing than the cloth that slips off in mid-air if it is made to fit the broom, and, furthermore, if it be opened at the side. The thing I have in mind is an oblong square bag of outing fannel from which the two lower corners have been cut, leaving it somewhat octagonal in shape. The small remaining bottom of the bag is made into a faced opening, and when the broom handle is slipped through the long, open side of the bag and dropped through the end opening the broom straws will be held securely. A ticking bag for clothes-pins has fastened to its upper end two wire hooks to hang it to a clothes-line. The end is first stiffened with wire, and there is no opening for the clothes-pins except a round hole cut in the center of one side. A facing round the circular hole forms a casing for another wire to keep the opening in shape. Countless household bags are not to be scorned, but these two are particularly useful shapes. THE GAZETTE way and brought back lying loosely over the top, with its end fastened under the coll. The hair across the forehead is arranged in a loose pompadour, the ends lightly twisted, and brought back to its coll if long enough to reach. If not, they are concealed under that portion on top of the head which has already been fastened into the coll. This pompadour is then pulled forward and down over the brow and parted lightly with the fingers, a little to one side. Invisible pins, fasten it to place, and it is worn more or less over the brow to suit the individual taste in this matter. A full cluster of false puffs is placed over and around the coll, where they are firmly pinned to place. A barette is adjusted under them, supporting the short locks a the nape of the neck, which usually prove so refractory. Finishing touches are given by pulling the side hair against the puffs and pincing it to them with invisible pins and curling any short locks which may struggle about the nape of the neck into little rings. These are held in place with the fluid which hairdressers use for that purpose. The natural hair, untess very curly, will not make satisfactory curls and puffs, and even when one possesses the requisite quantity of naturally curly hair it is much more difficult to manage than the false hair. Moreover, it will not stay well dressed as long and consumes far more time in doing so that it is economy to buy puffs and curls. Of all things, however, one should get a perfect match in color and texture to one's own hair. When the natural hair is very thin it will be necessary to use additional hair across the front of the head, for the hair dress just described. Several styles are made in front pieces that will fill all the requirements, and when combed in with the natural hair are not to be detected. In adjusting the hat to this coiffure a portion of the hair about the face should be pinned to the underbrim or facing of the hat. Umbrellas Now Made So They Fold—Great Convenience for the Traveler. Umbrellas which can be folded to fit into a 24-inch dressing case are the only type which now appeal to the college girl who does not like to be burdened with more than one package when traveling. These folding umbrellas come in black, tan, taupe, dark red, blue, brown and green twilled silk, mounted upon steel frames and usually have wooden handles. Among the newest umbrella handles is one of flattened top, shaped somewhat like a huge button and about two and one-half inches across. Other wooden handles are carved to represent the heads of cats, dogs, owls and butterflies. They are usually of natural colored oak, ebony or mahogany, but occasionally one is stained to match the silk covering of its frame. Very smart umbrellas which particularly appeal to girls of aridic as well as extravagant tastes have sat finished white wood handles, with tops of ouyx, jade or carved dull red quartz. They are decorated with narrow ribbon bows or with tasseled loops through which the wrist may be thrust. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883, AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1909. HAVE NO USE FOR PRES. TAFT! WHY BOOKER T. WASHINGTON WILL NOT SUE THAT AKRON HOTEL PROPRIETOR. Praise for Senator Charles Dick, Whom, Mrs. Patricia Robison Says, Is Worthy to Be Counted a Friend of the Great Foraker—Taft Scored—Bishop Caldwell Makes a Fine Impression. Portland, Ore, Oct. 10, 1999. Editor Gazette, Deer Sir: I have been meaning to write to you for some time, but have been very busy and neglected it. The Gazette is still taking the right position on all questions, Senator Dick has proved himself worthy to be counted a friend of the Great Foraker and you were right when you said Mr. Washington should have accepted his hospitality. Mr. Washington will not sue that hotel. He lacks backbone. He is doing a good work for the race; yet the evil he does in over emphasizing the one kind of education and in the yielding of rights, which should be maintained at any cost of blood or trouble, will, I fear, overbalance the good. The president was here Saturday and Sunday, Oct. 2d and 3d. I did not see him. His gratitude to the Great Foraker, his cowardly treatment of the Afro-Americans, his neglect to do justice to the brave black soldiers disgraced, have so sickened Roosevelt disgraced, have so sickened he disgraced me with him that I would go miles to avoid meeting him. They say he looks worn and tired. Perhaps he is finding for which he sold his honor, but apples of Sodem, after all. Bishop J. S. Caldwell of Philadelphia was here from Oct. 2nd to 5th. He has the privilege of hearing him preach of church Sunday evening, and lecture on Monday evening. He is a fine speaker and a splendid man. I have not enjoyed anything for years as I did his speech on Monday evening. His plea for race love and Christian education were among the finest things I ever heard. To the creature of Portland, he is said, Taft's name was received in dead silence when it chanced to be mentioned, though the bishop and other speakers were cheered heartily many times. Rev. W. W. Matthews, the pastor of the Zion A. M. E. church, a very bright, able, aggressive young creature and his sweet and amiable wife, thorny and beautiful. The bishop. I hope shall sometime have the privilege of meeting Bishop Caldwell again. My daughter was very ill in Am, and since then I have been so busy I have not yet done anything about that scholarship for Wilberforce university. I have been a Elect Johnson mayor of Cleveland rather than the man the others have named. With all good wishes, I am. Myrs sincerely. MRS. PATRICIA ROBISON. WILL NOT SERVE LONGER! Splendid Membership and Endowment Fund of Ohio District Lodge—An Interesting Interview with Grand Master Hays— Highly Honored. Cincinnati, O.—In a recent talk with the Hon. Geo. W. Hays, ex-member of the Ohio legislature and grand'master of Ohio District lodge, G. U. O. of O. F. he said: "The recent meeting (28th annual) here of Ohio District lodge, which was largely attended, very im- portant and successful in every way, reports showed that there is a mem- bership of 2,100; an endowment fund of $5,000, although the Endowment As- sociation is hardly a year old; paid widows and orphans out of this fund, $1,500." This is indeed a splendid showing under Mr. Hays' administration, which began at Marysville in 1906, when he was elected by acclamation as he has each year since. He says that he will not serve after the completion of his present term in office, and this is to be greatly regretful. Hays appointed Elias of the excellent work of Cleveland's representatives in the last grand lodge meeting, Messrs. J. L. Thomas, A. T. Abbott and B. F. Douglass. His good work has resulted in his being appointed a colonel on the staff of the major general of the Patriarchie of the United States. In honor of Col. Abbott, in recognition of him during the grand lodge sitting, by the many members of the order and Households of Ruth, in the city at the time. He was presented with a coral scarf. pn. How Do You Like This? Washington, D. C.—There are some directions, Booker T. Washington declared, in which no color line can be drawn referring to disease and fifth. Pointing out the possibility of the ignorant Negro, who comes into such close contact with the white men, carrying disease germs to the latter, Professor Washington declared that it was the mission of the Negro physician to preach the gospel of health to his people—Boston Post, Oct. 5, '09. MATT. HENSON VS. DR. COOK. The Former to Pull Commander Peary's Fight Out of the Cook Fire. New York City—Wm. A. Brady announces that he has contracted with Matt. Henson, who was with Peary in his search for the North Pole, for lectures to be delivered in the next two years. Henson will make his first appearance probably Sunday night at the Hippodrome in this city. It is Brady's first route around the country on which Dr. Cook is now lecturing, in effect answering him in each city he visits in an effort to contradict Cook's claim that he found the pole. Henson took down much of the testimony of Cook's Eskimos which Commander Peary has just made public, and he is familiar with what these witnesses of Cook's own experience have better let Peary do his own lecturing unless there is big money in it for him (Henson). Mr. Henson was an honored guest at an informal dinner given by the Union League club of New York to the officers and scientific staff of the Roosevelt on October 6. The diners were all men in their 60s, those who are interested in polar exploration. Henson was the only Afro-American guest. Bradford, Pa. Brevities Rev.

Langford Wants a Joint with Ketchell New York City.—Sam Langford, an Afro-American, second only to Champion "Jack" Johnson, pugilist, is out with another offer for a fight with Stanley Ketchel and declares that he can stop the Michigan fighter in less time than it required "Jack" Johnson to do it. Ketchel and Langford were matched in catch weights and were ready to fight here when their bout was called off because of the activity of Gov. Hughes. Langford now wants to meet Ketchel for a $5,000 purse, at catch weights, or at 158 pounds, the fight to be held at Zolma, Cal., at any acceptable to Ketchel. By whipping Ketchel Langford hopes to get on a match with "Jack" Johnson. He has been after "Jack" for a long time and many of his supporters share his belief that he can defeat the giant champion. Is This True? New York City.—The first lecture given by Matthew A. Henson, Sunday evening in the Hippodrome here, who accompanied Commander Robert E. Peary on his recent polar expedition, was marred a little by the fact that the commander at the last moment had ordered him not to use photographs of the Henson on the ice on the Henson took 120 pictures of self and on his arrival here gave them to the director of the American Museum of Natural History, who transformed them into lantern slides. At the last moment Mr. Peary instructed the museum directors not to turn the slides over to Henson until he. Peary, who was the first to love Peary's order and neither would he send them to the commander, preferring to wait until the matter of ownership was definitely settled. Beam on Trial for Murder. Lima, O.-John W. Beam, attorney and real estate agent, who is charged with shooting and killing Mrs. E. Maude Dilts, his white widow "sweet-heart," in May, was put on trial Monday. Difficulty was experienced in his defense, and the Christian Geiger ("white"), a former蜜饯 brewer, on the charge of planning robberies perpetrated with the aid of expert crooks, is charged with having slain Mrs. Dilts because she was a principal against him, and attempted shooting himself when officers surrounded him. He has a family here. Gold Eob for the Senator. Eleven Afro-American citizens of Tanana Valley, Territory of Alaska have sent a beautiful gold foil to Senator Foraker, in token of their esteem for his services in behalf of the 167 members of "The Black Battalion" who were discharged by President Roosevelt for alleged conspiracy in the alleged "shooting-up" of Brownville, Tex. The donors are: John N. Gorma, J. W. Riggs, S. B. Holman, A. G. Grant, A. G. Smith, J. John Cooper, Wm. M. Bell, R. F. Miles, F. Griffin, J. Dobbs and Hayden J. Richardson. The Same Elder Gazaway! One of the first official acts of Dr. J. W. Gazaway, the new pastor of St Paul's A. M. E. church was to reduce the steward board's obligation, for the current year on pastor's support, from $1.366 to $666. A cut of $400 which Dr. Gazaway said would be used to help the church to be used helping to liquidate outstanding indebtedness. Dr. Gazaway surely is a man called of God to be a Christian minister. St. Paul is to be congratulated.—Columbus (O.) S. E. News. Appointed Messenger. Washington, D. C.-Ralph W. Tyler, auditor of the navy, has appointed Felix Cheatham, of Cincinnati, messenger in his office. Cheatham was born and reared in Cincinnati, and received his education at the old Gaines school.

BAD AS IT CERTAINLY WAS! "Jim Crow" Railroad and Street Cars—Some of Them in the Rear of Toilet Rooms—Dirty and Flithy—Quit Blowing and Bragging About the South—An Interesting Letter. Danville, Va., Oct. 11, 1909. Editor The Gazette, Dear Sir: I am very sorry to say that things have changed for the worse since I was home here on the Rear of Virginia six years ago. They even have "Jim Crow" street cars here now. The "whites" sit in front and our people in the back, the two last seats of each car being used for smoking for both races. The best of our people do not and are not compelled to. They either have their own carriages or conveyances, walk, or hire rigs of some kind. Although I had a first-class ticket from Painesville, O., to this town, I was forced to take a "Jim Crow" car south of Washington, D. C., and you know what that means to me. I point (the nation's capital) I was forced to change my ticket for one on the Southern railroad. Great (7) is this country and its government in its protection of its CITIZENS who are interstate passengers and pay for first-class fare. The Negro, the Afro-American, is the one who is so degraded, and guess it’s not the government who helped to save the government from the British, two times; the Spaniards, and last but not least, from these very self-same prejudiced “white” southerners who tried to disrupt the country and shoot the government to pieces in the war of the rebellion between 1861 and 1865. Yes, indeed, “this is the brave” the tree and the land of the brave.” “NITI” it is rather a face, a joke, or a parody on such a republic, or country. Well, I left Washington on a 4:10 train for this place (Danville) and I wish you could have seen where they put me to ride (in the “Jim Crow” car)—back of the “white” toilet, and the car was so dirty and filthy that hated and dreaded to sit in it. It railed me sick. I longed for that breezy north that many “Negroes” from this section skidoo to only to brag about this God-forgotten section of the country that they were too glad to leave and never come back to. to be sure, you could possibly help it. Thousands, yes old men, “help to don’t them?” the old world isn’t what it used to be.” Bad as it was, it is now infinitely worse. Southern "Negroes" in the north, stop "blowing" about the south, but come on back down here and get your eyes opened, and learn something of the past. It is simply disgusting and outrageous, the way they treat us down here, and this is the condition in almost every southern state now. Send me The Gazette down here. It will certainly prove "a ray of sunshine" in an eighty dark and tough section of this park, with wishes for any friends who may make inquiry of me, and hoping to soon be able to return north, I am. Yours respectfully, GRACE E. CARTER. MATT. HENSON LECTURED! He Had Prompt Answers for All the Questions of Cook Sympathizers in the Audience. New York City—Mathew A. Henson, for years a lieutenant of Commander Peary on all of his North Pole expeditions, lectured here at the Hipodrome Sunday evening to a vast audience Herbine L. Bridgman, secretary of the Peary, wrote, introduced him, saying amid deafening cheers: "Henson is a man who makes good." After a series of moving pictures showing Arctic scenes, the Roosevelt and Commander Peary's family, Henson commenced his lecture. As he talked pictures of the conditions that Peary felt, he told about the first stages of his journey, when some one called out: "Say, Matt, where were you when Peary hit the Pole?" "I was right there with him," was the instant reply. "Were you suspicious on hearing that the Pole that he had not been there?" some one quelled. "We were suspicious. Here we started," responded Henson. "Can Eskimos draw maps?" asked somebody who sat near a Peary party including Professor McMillan and George Borup. "They certainly can. Give 'em a pencil and a piece of paper and they went as good a map of where they went throughout his lecture. Henson declared that Dr. Cook could not have reached the North Pole. Teaches a Mixed School Bay City, Mich.—The appointment of Edith B. White of this city, as a teacher in the public schools of this city, has given much satisfaction and encouragement to our people. She is the fourth young woman of our race to receive such appointment in this city. Previous Afro-American teachers were the Misses M. E. Edmunds, Lulu L. Hamilton and Lena Grant.

Ralph W. Tyler, formerly of Colum- bus, now Fourth Auditor of the U. S. ‘Treasury at Washington, D. C.. is busy these days writing congratula- tory letters to President Taft. That is his “old game.” We couldn't even imagine any other Ohio Afro-Ameri- can doing such a thing. At this late, very Jate day, the spec- tacle of the Indianapolis Freeman “in- sisting that Hon. Joseph B. Foraker did very much to bring about the Present status in the (Brownsville) affair,” when he did about ALL that was done for “The Black Battalion,” is certainly very amusing indeed. Our good friend, Geo. L. Knox, the pro- prietor of that paper, should call in its Rip Van Winkle editor at once and haye a “heart to heart” talk with him. ‘The same paper's Washington (D. C.) correspondent, R. W. Thompson, a clerk in the Governmental depart- ments there, also as gravely an- nounced last week, that “Taft was gaining favor with Negroes.” Isn't that rich? Even more so than the Freeman editor's Foraker comment quoted above. Ohio Afro-Americans will certainly be able to properly ap- preciate both—; what shall we term them, Jokes? BASE INGRATITUDE! ‘The local County Commissioners, Republicans, recently “fired” Dallas B. Cooper and James M. Tilley, Afro. Americans appointed to minor post- tions at the Court House by the Demo- rats, and appointed “white” men to thelr places. County Treasurer Mey: ers and County Auditor Prestien, both Republicans, who recently took office, followed the seven years’ lead of Coun. ty Recorder Herman C. Baehr, Repub- Mean candidate for Mayor, and refuse to give our people any representation whatever in thelr offices. We wanted ‘and still continue to want clerkships in the above-named county offices, or nothing. So they have given us noth- ing in recognition of our support both at the primaries and at the polls. How do you like it? About every other po- tent local factor of the party has been Tedognized by clerical appointment in these offices but ours, one of the most important. German, Irish, Jewish and other class-factors of the party have been given clerkships. Some of them (the factors) are far from the import. ance of the Afro-American in point of number of party members and work- ers. Still they have been given thie recognition which has been refused us. What are you going to do about it? We do not blame Messrs. Meyers and Prestien for refusing to appoint Fulton and Hudson, two “Negro” applicants for places, for to do so, would have an effect upon our people of this commu: nity that would be worse for Meyers and Prestien and the party than no appointment at all. But we have others whose selection would be not only pleasing and satisfactory all around, Dut who, if appointed, would add materially to the offices in every way. This sort of treatment of the ‘more than four thousand Afro-Amert can voters in this city and county (re- fusing to give us representation in thelr offices) by Messrs. Baehr, Mey: ers, Prestien and Sheriff Hirstius (for the appointment he gave an Afro: American fs not entitled to the slight- est consideration), is one of the things that is going to do the most at the coming election to defeat the entire Republican ticket, if the right and honorable thing, as suggested above, is not done and immediately, too. Promises to do “after election” will NOT be accepted. Just bear that in mind. The application of President Taft's “new southern policy” right here in Clevgland, will not be tolera- ted because we have our redress com. ing in November on election day, and don't let any one be foolish enough to think for one moment that we will not strike bagk at that time. Some may remember two years ago! We ‘will accept nothing less than clerk- ships in the three county offices named, and the two positions under ‘the County Commissioners which were arbitrarily taken from us re- cently. The Democrats have this fall ‘given us a nominee for the best office any Afro-American in this community ‘has beon nominated for in twenty-five years or more, Mayor Tom L. John- son has appointed more Afro-Ameri- ‘cans to office than all the Republican officeholders combined, and more than any Republican or Democratic Mayor of the City of Cleveland. These are facts! We give them to you, local Republican office-holders and leaders, as a Republican but as a far more loyal Afro-American. It will pay you to consider them well and promptly, too, for the time in which to do #0 {s very short. Get busy. Like thousands of other local Republicans, we bad hoped this was to be the year that would see a change in the execu- tive head of this municipality, but it seems as though those at the head of the party's affairs in this city and county have the Jeast care for its auccess at the polls in city elections when a Mayor is to be elected. Do Bachr, THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O.. SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1909. Meyers, Prestien, Hirstius, thelr backers, and other well-known “or- ganization’ Republicans, want Tom Johnson elected in November for the fourth time? It would seem s0, One thing sure, there are thousands of in- telligent Republicans in this city to- day who in their very hearts believe s0, and they have been forced to such belief as the result of things like those to which attention has been called, as well as others of far more general effect. SEED BOOKER'S “CHICKENS,” CON- TINUED. ‘The Cleveland Gazette, Hon. Harry C. Smith editor, has a bristling edito- rial on Booker 'T. Washington in its issue of September 25, 1909. ‘The Buehtel hotel of Akrou, O.. refused Booker T. Washington accommodation and The Gazette reisons that it 1s in Washington's case, “chickens coming home to roost.” In Washington's lec- tures he advised Negroes not to go in- to public places “where they were not wanted,” and on that account the col- orline in many instances was drawn in Cleveland (and Ohio), and the Ne- gro, of course, was proscribed. So much for Booker T. Washington. —St. Louis (Mo.) Advance, ‘Our esteemed contemporary fails to call attention to the phase of that Booker Washington-Akron experience that “grinds” the average loyal Afro- American, here in Ohio and especially here in Cleveland, far more than the fact that the most disagreeable affair is the direct outcome of that pernici- ous “doctrine of surrender” preached by ar. Washington in bis Obio lec: tures and talks. When he failed to ac- cept Senator Dick’s gracious invita- tion to become his “house-guest,” in the face of that contemptable hotel- Keeper's mistreatment, he did the race throughout this country and especially here in Ohio, positive injury. There was an opportunity for the man who would be our “national leader” to do something that would have had tre- mendous influence upon those of the people of this country who need most Just such an object lesson as would have been therein presented. It would have done all of the white people in America good as well as Afro-Amerl- cans, only in a much different way. O, how our people do need some man of large reputation like Dr. Washington who would rise to the full stature of American citizenship upon such occa- sions. Had he shown the true manhood and race-leadership by accepting the splen- did opportunity presented by Senator Dick, he would not only have “pulled the teeth” of that shameful refusal at the Buchtel Hotel, before the eyes and in the minds of the entire country but he would also have dealt color-lines throughout the land a vital blow, and gtven encouragement and even inspir- ation to our young, particularly, and the old, to “buckle on the armor” tight- er in a renewal and revival of the dormant struggle to retain citizen rights left and to regain those lost. If hhe Is not in a position to do this, then he should cease the effort he and his friends, black and white, are making to foist him upon the race as its “na- tional leader.” We need as leaders only men and women who are fearless, manly and womanly AT ALL TIMES, as well as capable from an intellectual and other necessary view points. ‘Anent(this miserable Akron experl- ence, the Durham (N. C.) Reformer says: “Dr, Washington while in Akron, ©., was refused quarters at a leading hotel and in turn was offered the hos- pitality of Senator Dick whose home is in the city. It is so remarkable that @ white ministrel show crew got the courtesies of the same hostelry the week before. Moral it you desire hotel accommodation better be a clr- cus clown and be white than a leading world character and be otherwise.” Cole & Johnson's “Red Moon Com- pany” is not a “minstrel show” but a collection of Afro-American perform- ers who would not have been afraid and would not have failed to accept a U, 8. Senator’s hospitality, so gracious- ly extended, when turned from a hotel in his home city. Revise your “moral,” confrere. We can do it, but would spare Dr. Washington's feeling as the comparison necessary to be made would not improve the very uncomfort- able position in the matter he now oc- ‘cupies in the minds of all manly Afro- Americans and the same class of whites who are not literally saturated with prejudice. One “leading world character,” we know had better stop “posing” ‘as “‘the leader of his race,” ‘and in so doing do it the greatest good.

Clouds of smoke and steam arose from small fis- sures and within the lake a small spot of land reflected a translucent glow as though an active voleano existed a short distance beneath.

Mrs. Pringle stared in amazement ‘as he slowly shredded the piper and Jerked the bits savagely into the flames. “Why John!” she gasped, “wasn't that a check?” He turned a pair of blinking orbs upon her, then waggled his head. “Ob, no, my dear,” he gurgled thick- ly, “nothing of the sort.

The Gazette commends the following to our local Women's clubs for discussion and careful consideration: "There are some directions in which no color line can be drawn. Disease draws no color line; filth draws no color line; the germs of his ignorance of the laws of health, carries about in his body the germs of consumption, of small pox or of the disease known as the hook-worm, these germs will spread from his body to that of the white people by whose hands he feeds. He serves the food of white people. Negro women launder the clothes of the white people; Negro women nurse the babies of the white people. In a word, Negroes touch the white man at almost every vital point in his life." If the Negro woman is ignorant as to the germs of the white man, ease to the white man's family through her uncleaned hands, or unwashed body, or the most deadly germs can be taken to the house of the white man by reason of the fifth of the cabin in which the white man's clothes are laundered. Report of public health science by Boker Washington at Washington, D. C., recently. WE NEED A JUSTICE OF THE PEACE! It is really encouraging to see how generally it is recognized as a racial DUTY, that we all vote for Walter L. Brown for Justice of the Peace, the best position that any party, locally, has nominated an Afro-American for in the last twenty-five years or more. The fact that he is on the Democratic ticket means absolutely nothing to the intelligent, loyal and self-respecting member of the race, a voter. The fact that he is an Afro-American, competent, deserving, and that we need particularly a man of the race in that position in this community where the average white republican or democratic city Justice of the Peace has not always done the right thing by a good deal in civil rights' cases as well as others in which our people were greatly concerned, is all-sufficient. Show your manhood, race and self-respect and loyalty by coming out "fat-footed" for Walter L. Brown, for Justice of the Peace. That is what The GAZETTE has done and is continuing to do and proposes to keep on doing until the close of election day in November. Get busy, keep busy and will succeed. Those of the race in this city need an Afro-American Justice this city the many times more than any man could possibly need the position. That is the point. SEE! Grand Jury Fails to Indict.

A When we first began our wonderful work of growing all kinds, all qualities, all lengths, and all conditions of hair, even to the growing of hair on bald places of the head, many persons scorned the idea that such a thing was possible; but we have grown the hair for hundreds, rapidly achieving success. The proof of the value of our work is that we are being cultivated and largely by persons whose own hair we have actually grown and the further fact that they have very frequently mentioned us when trying to sell their goods (saying that "theirs is the same" or "just as good") or referred to "PORO." We advise you to use only "PORO" Hair Grower, (the oldest and best of its kind.) See that the name "PORO" is on every box, not genuine with out it. Prepared only by MRS. A. M. POPE.

Sugar Is fattening, but it has never been proved that the time-hon- ored theorles of its being ruinous to the teeth and digestion are anything more than theories. There are certain conditions, such ag diabetes and kidney troubjes, that make sugar eating inadvisable. Ordi narily, unless one is trying to thin down by abstaining from all the joys of lite, it 1s unnecessary to go with. ‘out sugar on one’s cereal, frult, or in Gckserts and candies, except from mo tives of ecoonmy.

We called in a physician at once, but he gave an ointment which was so severe that my babe would scream when it was put on. We changed doctors and medicine until we had spent fifty dollars or more and baby was getting worse. I was so worn out watching and caring for him night and day that I almost felt sure the disease was incurable. But finally reading of the good results of the Cuticura Rem- edies, I determined to try them. I ean truthfully say I was more than surprised, for I bought only a dollar and a haif's worth of the Cuticura Remedies (Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Pils), and they dla more good than ‘all my doctors’ medicines I had tried, ‘and in fact entirely cured him.

My grandfather used to tell us with pride of an instance whieh oc- curred at a tlme when a new church edifice had been proposed, and was under warm. discussion.
