TWENTY-EIGHTH YEAR. NO. 7. Home Millinery --- SINCE 1830 TWENTY-EIGHTH Home M THE untrimmed hats, turned out by manufacturers ready for the pro manufacturers ready for the professional or amateur millinery, are so good in themselves, so graceful and becoming that they might be worn without the addition of ornament of any sort, and still be pleasing, although not complete. They are made of many varieties of silk, of velvet or plush, and in all sorts of combinations. Those shown in the illustration are among the handsomest, made of silk crape in many rich colorings with high luster, and having the brims faced with velvet. Their shapes are all prepared for the addition of trimming, which this season will surely be of feathers. For some reason feathers have come to the fore like an avalanche. There are bands and pom- Importance of Ventilating Rooms, Especially Sleeping Chambers, Is Too Often Overlooked. Nothing is more common than fresh air. Nature has provided it in abundance for all who will take it. There is no one thing so potent to prevent disease, so effective in maintaining a healthy action of the whole body. Bad air spreads disease. Consumption, pneumonia, bronchitis and catarrh are bad air diseases. Bad air, too, is a cause of colds. Sewage flowing into pure water pollutes it. So the air we exhale from our lungs pollutes the air in the room. The impure air from the lungs of any number of people in a room mixes with the pure air and makes it dangerous and unfit for breathing. There must be a supply of fresh air constantly coming in to take the place of the foul air, which in all cases should be permitted to escape near the top of the room. It is a law of nature that air is always in motion, and because this is true one has only to lower the windows a little from the top and to raise them a little from the bottom and the process of ventilation will go on without our thought or care. It is impossible to estimate the amount of misery and suffering caused by impure air. If you would escape, see to it that you get at all time a plentiful supply of fresh air. BRAIDED COSTUME. Bradding seems to have lost none of its popularity, and some stunning costumes are elaborately trimmed in this manner. The cut today suggests a dressy afternoon costume in pale gray satin messaline, the bodice and tunic covered with self-tone silk rat-tail braid in close design. The front and neck of bodice is cream lace and tucked mousselline, the former edged with a narrow band of black velvet ribbon and tiny black buttons. The tunic opening on left side is trimmed at bottom with a huge fringed cabochon of gray braid. The long trained skirt is finished at bottom with three deep tucks. THE GAZETTE mons, quilts, wreathes, breasts, sprays, wings and plumes. Perhaps the airships have called our attention to the feathered throng that sail about the sky, or perhaps chantier has really awakened the world—to the possibilities of feathers. At any rate they are everywhere in endless and bewildering variety. They have been made up in pieces all ready for the hat, and the way of the amateur milliner is made easy. This is the sort of trimming that is safe for her to undertake. She should buy both the shape and the trimming all ready prepared. Some of the former come already lined, which is a great convenience; for placing the trimming properly is not easy by any means. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Dressy and High Footwear Now Being Made in a Variety of Styles. It is an actual hardship to the woman whose ankles are so weak that she cannot wear low shoes or pumps in hot weather. Besides the discomfort from heat in our climate one is conscious of looking heavily shod. Many are tempted for dress occasions to slip into dainty pumps, but for those women who have a wholesome dread of broken bones what is to be done? Fortunately it is now possible to get "dressy" shoes high. To wear with lingerie frocks there are good looking shoes in white buckskin or suede, some of them embroidered or beaded on the vamp. High bronze shoes or colored boots to match special frocks can also be had. For morning or outing use there are well cut high tan shoes or sporting looking white canvas and buckskin with heavy soles. Tennis soles are also to be found on boots that support the ankle. Reefer Coat Smart Wrap There is no smarter wrap for younger women's wear at seaside, lake or mountain than the reefer coat made from a light-weight woolen checked material. Now that the one-piece dresses are so much worn the short, loosely fitting little reefers are just the thing for warmth. A blonde wearing a reefer in a pale-blue and white check, trimmed with white plique collar and cuffs and gilt buttons over her frock of white plique looked charming, and I have in mind a handsome brunette in a pretty gray linen frock with a reefer of white and gray checked goods, the trimminges white suede and gilt buttons. Smart-Looking Bonnet. Elderly women who prefer bonnets to hats sometimes find it difficult to find pleasing models. At a store I saw recently some very pretty and smart-looking bonnets. One was of braided net black, draped softly over the crown, and coronet trimmed with a bunch of dainty white flowers from which rose a black aigrette. The strings were of good ribbon. Another was of white Yedda braid, covered with cobwebby black net. The left side was trimmed with black silk roses and lilies of the valley. Black roses also held the strings at the back. Gray Linen. As the season advances the fashionable woman emerges from exceedingly light colors to just a touch of severity in her garb. A new gown is of gray linen, cut in one piece with an oddly shaped band of linen on the skirt, opening in front to show an inset of heavy lace. Around the band is a narrow hem of linen on the outside. Bands of linen are used for trimming and little caps go over the sleeves. A collarette of finely-tucked India linen can be worn with the costume or dispensed with at pleasure. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 17, 1910. EPITOME OF A WEEK'S NEWS Most Important Happenings Told in Brief. PERSONAL.

Miss Florence Pardee, daughter of former Gov. George C. Pardee of California, was instantly killed when an automobile in which she was riding with a number of friends turned over. The other members of the party escaped with slight injuries. Explaining his action in a scorching statement, Gov. Malcolm R. Patterson withdrew his candidacy for the Democratic nomination for governor of Tennessee, furnishing a sensational elimax to a long and bitter preliminary campaign. Coy, Isaac L. Ellwood, one of the most prominent figures in the life of Illinois since the early '70s and the richest man in Illinois, died at his residence in De Kalb, Ill., after an illness of more than two months. GENERAL NEWS. A tense note of resignation from the Hamilton club of Chicago, of which he has been a member many years, was the answer made by United States Senator William Lorimer to the action of the club president, John R. Batten, in withdrawing his invitation to the roosevelt banquet. Chambers O. Templeton, state senator of Tyrone, Pa., who recently withdrew as a candidate for re-election because his "business interests required his attention," is under arrest at Altoona on the charge of forgery. Passenger train No. 34 on the Louisville & Nashville railroad, north-bound, from Knoxville, Tenn., for Cincinnati, was wrecked at Williamsburg, Ky. The engineer and freeman were killed. While waiting for an interurban car at Shelburn, Ind., Ray Orr, a printer, twenty years old, of Sullivan, Ind., was shot and killed by a tramp. The slayer escaped. Will Sharp and Bob Bruce, negroes, who for seven or eight years have worked on various farms over the county, were lynched at Tiptonville, Tenn., by a mob of forty men. They had attempted an attack on Sallie and Callie Downing, white children. Canada's total wheat crop this year is 122,785,000 bushels, according to the estimate of the government statistics officer. This is 43,959,000 bushels less than the yield of 1909. Sarah King of Brooklyn will receive a silver cup as winner of a hobble-skirt race. She only fell seven times. Four pennies, dating back to 1737, and worth about $800, were found by Charles M. Webb in plowing near Mount Freedom, Nt J., last week. Charles K. Hamilton, who made the great race from Philadelphia to New York on June 13, was seriously and possibly fatally injured at the state fair grounds at Sacramento, Cal., when his new 115-horsepower biplane Hamiltonian crashed to the ground after a spectacular flight. The award of the international court of arbitration in the Newfoundland fisheries case became irrevocable with the expiration of the five days allowed for an appeal, without either the United States or Great Britain having entered a protest against the findings. Twenty-nine lives were lost in Lake Michigan when the Pere Marquette's car ferry, No. 18, sank from unknown cause 20 miles off Sheboygan. Wis. It is declared one of the worst marine disasters in the history of Lake Michigan navigation. The boat was valued at $400,000, and the cargo, which included 32 loaded cars, estimated to be worth $150,000. Thirty-three men were saved. Ubian trotted a remarkable mile at Charter Oak park, Hartford, Conn., when he drew his owner, C. K. G. Billings, hitched to a speed wagon, in 2:01½. The last quarter he covered in 29 seconds. F. G. Furman, head of the Shore Electric company, operating in New Jersey, was found murdered in the bushes near Red Bank, N. J. The police are unable to find a clue to his slayer. Surviving members of Crocker's Iowa Brigade, which won fame in the Civil war, held their biennial reunion in Washington, Ia. Returns from all but 21 towns in Maine give Plaisted (Dem.), for governor, a plurality over Fernald (Rep.), of 8,551 votes. Hinds and Guernsey, Republicans, and McGilliedue and Gould, Democrats, are elected to congress. Democrats have elected 21 out of the 31 state senators and 86 out of the 151 representatives. Fanned by a 40-mile gale, the forest fire which started in the north wood clearing, near Lynden, has spread until several towns of Whatcom county, Wash., are menaced, dozens of ranch houses and barns have been destroyed and a total loss of $1,000,000 inflicted. The direct primary election for nominations held throughout Washington resulted in an overwhelming victory for Miles Poindexter, Insurgent, over Judge Thomas Burke, the regular Republican candidate for United States senator. There will be no majority report on the Ballinger-Pinchot controversy until congress convenes in December. This surprising announcement was made by six members of the congressional investigating commission after a meeting at Chicago which lasted more than six hours. As there was no quorum present the members took an adjournment until December 3, when the will meet in Washington. Even of the Chicago meat packers injected by the federal grand jury on charges of conspiracy in restraint of trade appeared before Judge Landis and gave the bonds in the $30,000 each. By their prompt appearance they escaped arrest on bench warrants which Judge Landis had ordered issued. Thomas Shields, a coal passer, and Stanley Chibb, a porter, rescued when Pere Marquette car ferry No. 18 went down in Lake Michigan with a loss of 28 persons, declare that had steamer No. 17 come alongside the sunken boat when signaled every person on the Pere Marquette would have been saved. Instead, they declare, No. 17 stayed away until the boat was submerged. A religious pageant as rich in devotional emotion as in sacred imagery, diverse in nationality and huge in size, elapsed the twenty-first International Enchiristic congress. The procession marched four miles through the streets of Montreal, host at its head, to Mount Royal, above the city. There were 100,000 in line and 500,000 viewed it. The czar of Russia is known in Passaic, N. J., as one of the city's leading philanthropists. Announcement was made that he had co-tributed $40,000 toward the erection of a new Russian orthodox church in that city. The structure will cost $120,000. Rev. George P. Williams, D. D., of Chicago, has been elected secretary of the missions of the American Sunday School union, whose headquarters are in Philadelphia, Pa. The old missionary hymn, "From Greenland's Ice Mountains," has been dropped from the mission hymnal which is to be submitted for approval to the convention of the Episcopal church in Cincinnati next month. Many protests are made. Cardinal Legate Vannutelli presided at pontifical mass at Montreal, Que. in the presence of 40,000 worshipers, the greatest assemblage ever gathered in a single act of worship in the new world. Democratic nominees for state offices, headed by Gov. George W. Donaghy, candidate for re-election, rolled up the usual majorities at the election in Arkansas. The Democrats of Maine elected their candidate for governor, Col. Frederick W. Plaisted, mayor of Augusta, and perhaps four congressmen and quite likely also a majority of the legislature. Next week the greatest fleet of warships ever assembled on the Hudson will anchor off New York and the United States seamen, after being paid, will get ten days' shore leave. It is estimated they will receive about $600,000. John E. Scanlan, a cartoonist, was found dead in his studio at Philadelphia. As he had signed himself "Walt Mason" at times, his death led to the report that the well-known Kansas poet was dead. Ten men, five of them presidents of the most extensive packing companies in the world and all of them directors of the National Packing company, which has been the special object of recent governmental investigation, were indicted by the federal grand jury at Chicago on a charge of having violated the Sherman antitrust act. Senator J. C. Burrows announces that he will begin the investigation into the election of Senator William Lortimer to the United States, in which fraud has been alleged, at Chicago, Tuesday, September 20.

Whales Follo School of Seventy-five Follow Vessel for Two Hours. Never Before In Memory of Skippers Were Huge Mammals so Num- erous Along Atlantic Coast as at Present Time. New York—No vessel passing through the picket line of whales which has patrolled the Atlantic coast from Florida to Maine since July has encountered such a large school as did the schooner Ella L. Davenport, which arrived the other day from Charleston, S. C., with lumber. Never before In the memory of skippers making this port were the huge mammals so numerous as at the present time. Whalers which formerly were forced to traverse Arctic seas in search of their quarry merely put out to sea now adavays and harpoon their prey. "I had seen several small schools of whales on the way up," said Captain John F. Dunton, of the Davenport, "None of these schools came very close. But about 20 miles southeast of Winter Quarter Shoal lightship, down at the Delaware Capes, the largest bunch of 'em I ever saw hove up from the south. It wasn't a school, it was a big university. You can't count whales very well, because as soon as you count one he bobs under, comes up in another place, dives down again and sticks up his spout for another tally. "But I marked the ocean off into four parts when the whales circulated all around, and gave one quarter to the first mate, one quarter to the second mate, the third quarter to the bo'swain and the fourth to my wife. I kept only on all four. Dividing by three to account for the natural restlessness of the animals, I'm pretty sure that there were at least 75 whales in that university. My wife declares there were 200. "They didn't do any harm, excepting one that scared the bottom of French Scientist Figures There is $24,000,000 for Each Inhabitant of World. Paris.—"There is enough gold floating in the sea to make everybody rich and consequently happy." This information is the result of an analysis of ocean water recently finished by Alphonse-Bergert, a professor in the ocean-ographic institute. Fresh possibilities are thus offered to speculators and promoters. "The analysis revealed about fifty milligrams (1.7 grain) of gold in each ton of sea water," explained the professor. "That seems little enough, but considering that it takes a line of figures a column wide to give the total number of tons of water in the ocean it is easy to see that an immense amount of gold is held in solution. If each of the 1,500,000,000 inhabitants of the world had his share it would be $24,000,000 aplice. What a beautiful ending to all difficulties." "Are there other precious minerals in the sea?" the professor was asked. "Yes," he replied, "there are ten milligrams of silver in every ton of water, hence the total is about 50,000 times the amount taken from the earth since the discovery of America. There are about sixteen grams (one-half ounce) of salt in each pound of sea water." Greeley, Col.—American children are lot sufficiently spanked, declared Dr. G. Stanley Hall, president of Clark university, Worcester, Mass., in an address. "I do not believe in too much flogging, but it should not be abolished," he asserted. "Americans protect their children too much, and it makes them preocious and disrespectful. A little slapping now and then reinforces the moral purposes of the child." The doctor defended laughing "until one falls from the chair and rolls under the table," also championed getting angry, crying and dancing. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. Dog's Gold Teeth Glisten the hull. The schooner rattled down below and settled a little to leeward, but the whale swung from under and the boat righted herself. My wife was pretty badly scared, I can tell you, but I didn't think we'd come to harm. I know a whale will never smash into a ship unless it is attacked first. They're good natured and seem to know that there's plenty of room in the ocean." For more than two hours the school accompanied the ship, swimming along in twos and threes, turning, diving, swimming below the surface in all directions, but keeping in the general direction of the Davenport. After they had escorted the Davenport for nearly ten miles they suddenly headed for the south, and in five minutes were out of sight. SOCIETY BORROWER MUST GO Feature of London's Smart Set is Likely the wrapsage Under the New Regulations. London.—The "borrower," who has for some years been a feature of London society, is likely to disappear somewhat under the new regime. She, for the borrower is usually a woman, came in with the sporting set, which has had things its own way. She is generally of good family and is an excellent sportswoman, but impeccable. She never borrows money except from members of her family, and she does not really need to do so, as she has to pay for little. She borrows motor cars and weekend cottages. She has been seen at dinners wearing the jewels of a good-natured friend. When she wants to bring out a daughter she borrows a ballroom, and it is no uncommon thing to see announced in a London paper that Lady So and So will give a dance for her debutante daughter at the house of Countess This and That. One wealthy and good-natured peerless used to be importanted by borrowers for the loan of her London mansion, which contained a magnificent Open-Face Construction in Canline's Mouth Makes Him Conspicuous in Indianapolis. Indianapolis.—An English bulldog with gold teeth sat in an automobile in Washington street, near Illinois, the other day, and attracted considerable attention. By reason of the open-face construction peculiar to the English bulldog, one gold fang was especially prominent, and fairly glinted in the sunlight. There was other wealth in the dog's mouth besides the prominent gold fang, for she had four back teeth of the valuable metal. Despite these adornments, however, the dog was not at all proud, but looked about in a casual way as though mildly interested in the people who were keenly interested in her. And her name was Biddy, just plain Biddy. She is of aristocratic breeding, despite her name, for her "pa" was King Killborn and her "ma" was Mae Bell, and she cost more than $10 when she was a little thing that had not yet learned the joys of a bone. She is the property of F. M. Cantwell of Pooria, I., formerly of this city, and made the trip to Indianapolis with him in the big touring car, enjoying the ride immensely. In justice to her it should be explained that her gold teeth are not due to age, for she is not much more than a year old. A Peoria dentist, who is a friend of Mr. Cantwell, did the dental work. Some of her teeth were getting in bad condition, and one day Mr. Cantwell remarked to the dentist that he was going to send his youngest daughter to him for some dental work. Instead of the "youngest daughter," however, there appeared at the dentist's office Blddy, with an escort. Fortunately she has a good disposition, and the dental work was done without mishap, though toward the end of the operation she began to grow somewhat peevish. Whisper it IN WILLOW THERE IS TREASURY Y FIVE CENTS. COL. ROOSEVELT It Roosevelt in this city, the men and me. Colonel Roosevelt was deeply ballroom. The peeress herself was an elderly lady who never attended dances, but she generally complied with the requests of her friends, who had smart little houses lacking in space. Each season about a dozen large dances were held at her mansion. Last summer, however, one borrower went too far; she did not play the game, and she had all the bills for the ball directed to the peeress, who paid her, but has never lent her house to any one since. Queen Mary, who is very much in touch with all current social life, knows of the existence of the borrower, and is likely to end her London career. Women whose means do not allow them to meet their social obligations without taxing the good nature of their friends will not be encouraged to enter the court circle, no matter how good their pedigree. PUT SANDALS ON PET DOGS Latest Unique Fad of London Society Is to Dress Canines in Colored Boots. London—Summer sandals are at present being worn by the elite of the canine world. Doggie's boots are sold in all colors, both serious and gay, and are, as a rule, laced on his feet. In the summer, however, these boots are somewhat too heavy for their wearers, so sandals are substituted. "Sandals can be obtained in all sizes," said a dog's outfitter. "They are similar in shape to those worn by bables, and are made of leather and fastened by a strap and button in ordinary sandal style." Bees Stop Sale. York, Pa.—While an auctioneer at the sale of the property of Mrs. Harvey Snell, at Carleville, this county, was asking for bids upon a hive of bees, the little honeymakers became ruffled at the inspection to which they were subjected. They sailed forth, putting to flight a hundred or more people, including the auctioneer. A number were stung and the sale had to be postponed until the bees settled into the hive again. Teeth Glisten not to Biddy, but it is said on good authority that some more dental work awaits her at an early date. LICENSE TO WED SAME GIRL Rivals In New Jersey Secure Necessary Permit to Marry Pretty Miss, but Law Forbids. Trenton, N. J.—Miss Isabel Conroy, a pretty Trenton girl, is facing one of the most serious problems of her career, inasmuch as two young men are carrying marriage licenses, on each of which is inscribed her name. Edward Billings and Arthur Dennis, well known youths, both press their claims to Miss Conroy. Both have shown the licenses to Miss Conroy, but she has not as yet announced her intentions, telling both sulters she will consult a lawyer and act upon his advice. Miss Conroy admits she cares a whole lot for both young men, but says her affections for them are equally divided. She intimates she would make no objection to marrying one of them, but says she does not think it would be proper to take both. "Didn't you encourage both of them?" Miss Conroy was asked. "I liked both the boys and they came to see me frequently, but I arranged their visits so they would not meet," was the girl's reply. She added that she thought one of them would propose, but says she had no idea both would rush off and get marriage licenses without consulting her. "I was so sure of her," declared Dennis, "that, after taking out the marriage license in regular form, I engaged a minister and paid him in advance." The first time the suitors met at the Conroy house was when they went to present Miss Conroy with their respective marriage licenses. She fainted when both exhibited the documents. 2 THE GAZETTE PUBLISHED EVERY SATURDAY One Year.....$1.50 Six Months.....1.00 Three Months......50 Subscribers are requested to re- mit by postoffice money or- der or registered letter.

Sure, we have "heard from Maine," and so has President Taft. But that isn't a "marker" to what we will hear, from Ohio this fall. Just wait and see! This new-fangled, commercial-southern "Republicanism" better be dropped at once by Taft and his followers, or we will not only hear "something drop" in Maine, Ohio and many/other northern states heretofore Republican strongholds, but the big "drop" will come in 1912—something we certainly do not want to "see or hear." We hope to see some good Republican nominated for the Presidency, the next time, other than Roosevelt or Taft. The fact is, this must be, if we are to win, and not the Democrats. --- Gammon Theological Seminary and Clark University, Atlanta, Ga., were until recently in charge, respectively of Rev. Dr. J. W. E. Bowen and Prof. W. H. Crogman, but the Freedman's Aid Society of the M. E. Church, which has the schools under its supervision, some time ago decided to put them both under one management. Rev. Dr. S. E. Idleman of the North Ohio Conference of the M. E. Church, has been elected to the position—President of Gammon-Clark University. He is a native of Marion, this state, and is 47 years of age. President Idleman is of German parentage, and was educated at Wesleyan University, Delaware, and at Drew Theological Seminary. Dr. Bowen and Prof. Crogman will again resume positions as professors in the respective schools, all of whose pupils, like the two gentlemen last named, are members of the race. This is in perfect accord with President Taft's "new (political) southern policy." Another serious backward, instead of progressive step. "ONLY ONE DOUBT." The following strikingly true editorial is from a recent issue of the New York World, the great daily paper that in the last year has shown unmistakable friendship for the race on many occasions: "A white man succeeds a Negro as collector of internal revenue for Georgia. In making this appointment the president follows the policy announced by him early in March, 1909, when he said that Negroes would not be offended against the wishes of the 'whites'. In every southern state colored men are thus barred as completely as though cizenship had never been conferred upon them. "So far as we have observed, there has been o departure from this line of conduct. One of Mr. Taft's first acts was the selection of a white man for collector at Charleston, S. C., a position long held precariously by Dr. Crum, colored. On May 17, 1909, the president gave the postoffice department a cue, which was not to show up, by directing the appointment of a white postmaster at Darien, Ga., a town in which the blacks predominate. On June 26, 1909, it was stated at Galveston that more than one hundred colored deputy marshals, collectors and inspectors had been removed since March 4. On July 8, 1909, it was officially announced at Washington that no Negroes would be named as census enumerators. The next day, the weather bureau was recalled from Mobile, Ala., on the protest of white men. "In various speeches, the president has discouraged higher education for Negroes. At Howard University, May 26, 1909, he said: 'The best friends of the Negro are the whites who want them to have an industrial education.' In a speech before the North Carolina Society in New York in December, 1908, he said: 'The whites in the south 'applied with exact equality and justice to the two races,' but for the purpose chiefly of eliminating the black vote. "As subordinates usually act with much zeal on such examples and hints as these, it is to be presumed that by this time very few Negroes are in the public service at the south and that even they are doomed. "Without discussing the merits of this question, it must be admitted that the president has effected practically on his own motion a complete revolution in the policy of his party relating to the blacks. He has reversed every Republican platform for 40 years. He has ignored the spirit at least of his Republican leadership, the fact is moreworthy, first, because of its strangeness; secondly, because of the boldness with which it has been accomplished, and thirdly, because, if it is a bid for white support at the south, it can hardly fail to cost Republicans at the north more than they can hope to gain anywhere else. "In many northern states the colored vote might easily put it out of the power of Republicans to elect presidents at all. Ohio in particular is so situated. That the local politicians recognize the value of the colored contingent is shown by the plat form adopted on July 27 last by the Republican state convention, in which there was the usual demand for the Republican Party for Fortieth and Fifteenth amendments, with the familiar phrases about equal rights and- opportunities. "There is no uncertainty in these matters except upon one point. We know that so far as resolutions are concerned the great Republican heart is still true to the colored man. We know that all Negroes look alike to the Republican president and that he have some of them. We are in doubt any way except that the northern black man will vote in November, especially in Ohio." The Ohio Afro-American, like thousands upon thousands of other Ohio Republicans, will not be falling over one another this fall in an effort to get to the polls to vote. There is precious little encouragement for him in sight in the tickets or practice of either party. Were it not for southern democracy, its disfranchisement, "jincrow" cars, lynching and many other kinds of outrages upon our people, it might be possible for them to take the action necessary to help bring "the grand old party" back to its original moorings, to the espousal of principles that made it great, powerful and the party of the people years ago. Commercialism has "run riot" with both parties, and the country at large, too. A PASTOR ENTITLED TO PRAISE AND CREDIT. Rev. Ira A. Collins will preach his farewell sermons at St. John's church Sunday, and will leave Monday for conference in southern Ohio. A reception will be tendered and his family this week Friday evening at the church, to which all of our local ministers and their families are also invited. St. John's splendid church building will ever remain a monument to Elder Collins. It was a great, big undertaking, larger by far than many seem capable of realizing. So also was the deal which permitted the sale of the old church property, at such a splendid figure, $72,000. The new church was built by day labor and is one of the very best buildings in the city, so Mr. James Jordan, who with Mrs. Jordan have for years worshipped at Mt. Zion Congregational church, one of our oldest and best mechanics (of any race) in the city, insists. And "Jim" Jordan knows what he is talking about, too, having worked on most of the biggest best buildings put up in Cleveland in the last 30 years, as well as on St. John's new church edifice. To do all he had to, and content so long and so much with persons to get the property and land necessary, in the only way it could be secured, and to superintend the church construction, and come out of it all only about $5,000 in debt, a year or two's struggle—job (from without and within) in which consumed over $70,000, is a remarkable undertaking and that Elder Collins can feel proud of to his dying day regardless of the croaking and fault-finding of any who may feel disposed to so punish themselves. Everybody knows that Rev. The Gazette has criticised Rev. Collins and other ministers when in our judgment we thought it necessary. Therefore we cannot be accused of showing favorism in saying what we have truthfully in the foregoing. Rev. and Mrs. Collins have worked long and hard and successfully here in Cleveland, and let us all give them all the credit freely and willingly that they are entitled to, now and in the future. Some of us have done it in the past. The elder is not perfection nor is he in fallible—like all the rest of humanity—but he is a good man, a Christian gentleman; almost as good as Mrs. Collins. That he has made a few minor mistakes, is not to be wondered at. In this respect he is much like some of the rest of us, including those who "knock" in and outside of his congregation. But the fact remains, that there are few men in or out of any church that could have done better or as well, all things considered, as Rev. Collins did when he sold the old church property at such a high figure, bought the new church property which includes also the big house and land south of the church, and built the church, so well and by day labor, too. Wherever he is sent from Cleveland, he will go with the very best, wishes, not of the community which includes, of course, "the old reliable Gazette." Long life, good health and very much happiness to Elder and Mrs. Collins, and daughter. The following is an editorial from last week's Martinusburg (W. Va.) Pioneer Press, Attorney J. R. Clifford editor: "Nobody need try to take credit from Editor Harry C. Smith for having been responsible for the passage of Ohio's anti-lynching and civil rights laws. Of course there have been laws and laws introduced in Ohio by white men and Negroes framed with the idea of benefiting the race, but the two laws that stand against them are Smith's and Negroes are Smith's, and they are of an unadulterated brand, also. It is hardly necessary to pay heed to those who style themselves censors of real race men, for they seem never happier than when knocking them, but persons who are at all familiar with Ohio law are well aware that Harry C. Smith, above all other men, did more towards securing the passage of laws which are especially beneficial to Negroes than any other one agency. In addition to being a member of the Negroes, Smith has also been one to the white race, because, under his anti-lynching law, and according to the Ohio statute, whites who lose a member of their family by lynching, can also recover $5,000 indemnity from the county in which the lynchings occur." MAKE SOME MONEY. The old reliable Gazette desires an active agent and correspondent in every city and town in Ohio and neighboring states having a number of Afro-American residents. Only a little time on Fridays or Saturdays is required. We encourage you to serve from persons in the following cities: Stuebenville, Zauesville, Newark, Lancaster, Findlay, Lima, Oberlin, Chillicothe, Toledo, Urbania, Troy, Akron, Springfield, Piqua, Columbus, Cambridge, Martins Ferry, St. Clairsville, Bellefontaine, Wilmington, Portsmouth, Sabat, Gallipoli, Delaware, Cincinnati, Columbus, Hamilton, Middleport, Bellaire, Dayton, Loralin and Midtown, O., and other places where we have none. Write to the editor of the Gazette, Blackstone building, Cleveland, O., and terms will be sent promptly. Our readers will oblige us greatly by sending the address of any good person to us, or the names named above or others, to whom we can write relative to the matter.

To Open Up Other Avenues We Must Show by a Liberal Patronage That We Really Want Such Representation—The First Time FRESH OHIO NEWS OUR OWN WRITERS' WHAT OUR PEOPLE ARE DOING IN MANY CITIES AND TOWNS OF THE STATE. INTERESTING PERSONAL NOTES Miss Martha T. Simpson, of Salem, graduated as a trained nurse at the Provident Hospital, Chicago, recently. Texas wants the fourteenth amendment repealed so that it may disfranchise its Afro-Americans. Other southern states do not ask assistance in this particular. The "New York Age" is out in its opposition to President Taft, although nervously apologizing. The fearless newspapers of the race have forced the Yale "out of hiding—Brooklyn (N. Y.)"aga. The attendance at Howard University this year, bids fair to eclipse that of all previous years. President Thirkield has certainly made remarkable progress in so short a period of time. A number of students are from Ohio. Prof. Wm. A. J. Aoiner, of Howard University, Washington, D. C., has been elected superintendent of the Normal and Industrial (State) Department of Wilberforce University. John A. Lankford, of the same city, has made a professor of mechanical arts and civil engineering, in Wilberforce University. John Berry, of Cleveland, in the Ohio Penitentiary, at Columbus, for forgery, has been appointed teacher of penmanship in the pen night school, which is made up of 400 prisoners out of more than 1,400 who applied. The school is popular, since those who attend are not locked in their cells until two hours after the rest of the convicts. The Cleveland, (Ohio), Gazette, that well-known champion of the Negro and his interests, has reached the age of 28 years, an age which newspapers, and especially Negro papers seldom attain. During all these long years, The Gazette has never uplifted all lines, or if uplifted all lines, and if appearances count for anything, it has thrived instead of lost strength when assailed by those who sought it and its noble editor's undoing. Mr. Smith's lot, like that of every other editor who ever lived, has not always made him smile, but having determined to conduct himself as a man, he never uplifted all lines, and if uplifted him in accomplishing what he set out to do. Men of his kind are not run across every day, and when met, their hands are deserving of hearty shakes, and they should be encouraged. The Gazette's long life is a source of much gratification to the Pioneer Press, and we hope it and editor may live many long years yet—Martinsburg (W. Va.), Pioneer Press. OTHELLO AND MENELIK. What Prominent Actors and Play writers Hate to Special In- ternest to UR Shakespeare was one of the first of well-known writers to attack the subject, and although the matter is usually glossed over by actors who bronze their faces instead of blackening them, "Othello" is a race problem play of the first water. Robert Mantell was a full-blood Negro, but fearing the effect upon an audience, he had never dared make up the character in black face. Adelda Norwood, the prima donna, made a similar admission to me in regard to Alda, who as a native of Ethiopia should be as black as Monteiro, and who, as a realist you know, claims to be a direct descendant of Solomon and the Queen of Sheba. "Antony and Cleopatra" is a race problem play, for specialists in historical investigation insist that the lady in the case was of swarthy skin, and it is sometimes declared that she Dion Boucicault had no thought of preaching when he wrote "The Octo-ron," but he struck at a human note and showed that a man is a man, whatever may be his color, and that a woman with Negro blood in her veins may love, hate and suffer just as other women love, hate and suffer under similar conditions. "The Creob" and "The Markov" work together to deal with the same subject, as do "The Leopard's Spotts" and "The Great Question."—Archie Bell, dramatic critic, in Cleveland, (Ohio), Daily Plain Dealer. A. "Pointer." A wise old owl lived in an oak; The more he heard the less he spoke; The less he spoke the more he heard; Why aren't we all more like that bird? Wifev's Weaknesses. Is your wife an outspoken woman?" "She's usually out, and when she's out she's usually speaking." The Gazette draws no color-line but has always fought them, as every one knows. Therefore it has employed in years gone by both white and colored lady stenographers (and they were ladies, too) as well as male employees taking whichever it could get that was competent, whenever they were needed. We have no apology to offer for this. Indeed, none is necessary, to intelligent people of good, sound sense, free from a baneful racial prejudice which our people can least afford to possess. For about a year, none but males have been employed in The Gazette office, three Afro-Americans and one white who, like all the others of his class, was employed when we were unable to get competent ones of our own people to fill the places. So thus does poor, old "knocker" John Green's "trump card" prove to be a deuce or "two-spot". This reminds us of the fact that during all the years he served as a Justice of the Peace in this city, some eight or nine years, he steadily refused to employ a colored clerk, male or female, in his court. And it was a good paying position, too. High school or other graduates of color, outside of his immediate family, did not appeal to him then, in that way, or at any time since, as far as we have been able to observe and learn. They have, to The Gazette, however. PLACES MR. GEORGE RUSSELL, A MEMBER OF THE RACE, ON ITS FLOOR TO SELL TO THE TRADE AND GIVE US AN OPPORTUNITY. To Open Up Other Avenues We Must Show by a Liberal Patronage That We Really Want Such Representation—The First Time in Many, Many Years that Any Cleveland Business House Has Done This. About the only case of a member of the race's holding a position as salesman in any of Cleveland's large stores, that we can recall, is that of Mr. Lloyd Bowman, who held such a position with the E. R. Hull Co., Ontario street, many years ago. He was in the clothing department and "made good." It has always seemed strange to us that none of our many business associates have such an employee, especially since our local population has increased to at least twelve thousand in late years. All of our trade with the "down town" stores is cash, and it certainly amounts to many thousands of dollars every few months, to say the least. This same is true of the "up-town" districts. And yet, business men of other classes than our own, without a single exception, at least as far as our business associates, would date refused to take the legitimate advantage they would gain by establishing in their places of business, an GEORGE RUSSELL Afro-American, galesman, and thus making a bid for a concentration of our trade in their line, that must surely follow such a wise business move. For years we have discussed this matter with our loyal ministers and others and advised organized effort to gain such advantage in some of the largest business houses in the country. Providence has taken a hand in the matter, with the result that the National Clothing Company, at No. 232 Superior avenue, near the "Public Square" and West Third (old Seneca) street, on the North side of Superior avenue, has decided to place George Washington as the chief executive. He has been in the employ of Mr. S. H. Cohn, the proprietor of the business for the past six years and is thoroughly acquainted with the stock and the business, on the floor of that large establishment as a salesman. Here is an opportunity that our people can not afford to let slip. We must show them how to succeed. We must step in to be appreciated and now call our clerery and all other loyal members of the race to help Mr. Russell "make good" in his new and advanced position. He is capable and needs to our help, encouragement and patronage to a reasonable extent, to not only make his new position a permanent one, but to be the chief business man in the other business men will not be slow to see the wisdom of such a move, if that of the National Clothing Company proves a success as it surely must. Mr. Russell is an Ohio boy, born at Athens, and has lived in this city for eight years. He has an interesting family, a wife and a child, and is therefore thoroughly reliable as a trustful. The National Clothing Company sells ten and fifteen dollar suits for males and carries nothing but the best in that line of goods. The same suits elsewhere in the city will cost you nearly double the amount this company charges for them. Go in and ask for Mr. Russell. You do not have to make a request, if you do not wish to. Here is an opportunity, we repeat, to open up other clerkships for our men and boys. It is the entering wedge. Let us grasp it. The Magic of a Smile The expression of our face is of so great importance that we must watch it closely, so as to give happiness to all around us, but above all to the beloved best. A cross look, a mere frown, has often been the beginning of much bitterness of heart and sorrow between lovers, says Woman's Life. A smile demands so slight an effort, and has such great power. In a woman, especially, charm of expression is everything. More Than Fifty Years Old More Than Fifty Years Old. When an article has weathered the storms for over fifty years and during this time has grown and made friends wherever it has been introduced, puts a stamp on approval on it, and without further effort the clothes class above the average. This paper takes pleasure in telling its readers of one remedy that has this record. This remedy is Ford's Hair Pomade, the old time tried remedy for kinky, harsh, curly and unruly hair. Its use for the last fifty years, helped many whose hair was so short, harsh and kinky that it was the next thing to imitate it. It was used to put it up in any style that would conform the snarls the least particle, but the use of Ford's Hair Pomade has done a great deal toward eliminating this discomfort for our ladies, and now thousands and thousands of ladies all over the United States have long, wave hair, and we are in a position to know that many have Ford's Hair Pomade to thank for it. Mr. Ford advertises only to our people and patronizes every race paper of any worth. The Gazette thinks that it is no more than right that our people should patronize Mr. Ford. Live and let live is out motto, especially when a thing is well worth the living. FRESH OHIO NEWS OUR OWN WRITERS' WHAT OUR PEOPLE ARE DOING IN MANY CITIES AND TOWNS OF THE STATE.

May your future be as in the past, a success and an uplift to all true race interests. No one knows better than I your struggles, etc." Many of Mr. Luca's local friends (and he has very many, too) will be surprised to learn that Luca is a long-time member months ago, and has been successful in securing a most satisfactory helpmate. Sincerest best wishes, "Luke." THE NIAGARA MOVEMENT Sends Forth Its Annual Address to the Country. The Niagara Movement in sixth annual session with ten states represented, calls the attention of the nation to the following matters: 1. The persistent attempt to ruin the Negro public school system of the South, and to train one race to be simply menials for another. 2. The continuing menace of disfranchisement and the wrong of peonage. 3. The spread of lawlessness and mob rule. 4. The indecency and unequal accommodation of the lim crow car. 5. The sordid note of materialism and selfishness which was struck at the recent meeting of the Negro Business League. Against these things we continue to protest. We accept the gauge truculently thrown to us by Theodore Roosevelt, and gladly enroll ourselves with that great army of whinners and complainers and insurgents whose blows and words and tears have made America possible and made the shame at Brownville incapable of being a great political activist, call to independent political action sent forth by the National Independent Political League and promise our co-operation. We are glad that Congress refused to consider a partisan and one-sided Emancipation Celebration Commission. We favor government aid to an observance of this occasion, but it must not be controlled by a faction. We call for national aid in order to prevent the exploitation of the threatening dangers of ignorance. We hope the Race's Congress in London next summer and urge a representative attendance of our members. Finally we recognize the greatest accomplishment of the year—the organization of the National Association for the advancement of colored people in New York City. We urge our members to join and co-operate with it, and we willingly entrust the carry-ons of our work to our enfranchisement, universal education, legal protection and racial justice to it. Dupes Still In Majority The Duke of Wellington once expressed to Isqulerdo his wonder at the enormous number of charlatans that there were in the world. Isqulerdo quietly said: "I beg your pardon; I do not think there are enough—in proportion to the dupes." The Caterers' Association's Great Annual CLAM BAKE AND DANCE at Luna Park Monday Evening, September 26. Tickets to the Bake, $1 HIRSTIUS GUILTY SAY BOTH OF THEM CITY CLERK WITT AND DIRECTOR SPRINGBORN GIVE INSIDE INFORMATION. WHY STREET WAS NOT OPENED The Gazette Was Right in Its Contention, as usual—Our Refusal to Support Hirstus and Others Fully Justified—Some Interesting Letters. As is well-known The Gazette was bitterly opposed to the election of Sheriff Gus Hirstus, because when a number of his supporters of the 12th ward) Hirstus refused to permit a street to be cut through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, between Perry street and Greenwood street, because a few prejudiced Cedar avenue residents asked him not to do so "because colored people would come through" the street from Cedar avenue and "peer into their windows." He withdrew an ordinance which he introduced in the council (authorizing the proper city authorities to cut the street through) at the request of the above mentioned prep diced Cedar avenue residents. When he was re-elected to the council, Hirstus, a second time, promised to have the street cut through, but steadily refused to keep his promise. The following is pertinent and self-explanatory. Read the letters carefully and thoughtfully: Office of The Gazette. Blackstone Building. Cleveland, Nov. 15, 1998. Mr. Peter W. Wheat, Councilman Sir: Just before election, Councilman Hirstus made a statement in a politi- cal meeting to the effect that he had passed an ordinance, resolution or something in the city council, providing for cutting a street through from Central avenue to Cedar avenue, be- come a city council member. Twenty-eighth streets, opposite Sheed street, or in that vicinity, which he claimed, though passed by the council in July last (the work of cutting the street through) has been held up ever since by Director Springborn or some one else connected with the city gov- ernment. How much, if any, truth is there in his claim? Last year or the year before the same individual introduced an ordinance, resolution or something in the council, providing for cutting a street through in the same vicinity. Will you tell me whether or not the rest entity of advance or whatever it was referred to will be asked by the council, and why the street was not cut through at that time? By compiling with the above requests at your earliest opportunity you will greatly oblige me. Yours truly. HARRY C. SMITH Editor The Gazette. Nov. 23, 1908 Hen. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette—Dear Sir: On July 9, 1908, resolution No. 5263 by Mr. Hirstius provided for the opening of East Twenty-fifth place to Cedar avenue. It passed the same month on the 24th day. The improvement was not made for the reason that Mr. Hirstius did not want it. His reasons for not wanting it. I have been informed, were and possibly are that the people in the immediate vicinity of the proposed opening did not want people of your race to come through. In May of the present year there was a resolution introduced, and passed in June, looking for the making of a new street between Centra and Cedar avenues about opposite corners. The street never made for the reason that the money in possession of the city through the sale of bonds was for the opening of dead end streets and in the making of new streets. It is the purpose of the administration to refer the wishes of council men for ward improvements, and feel sure that the only reason the improvement at East Twenty-fifth place was not made was because of race prejudice which Mr. Hirstius listens to. Would suggest that you call up Mr. Springbring and get from him a confirmation of what I have given to you as a rumor. Very truly yours. Hon. H. C. Smith, Editor Gazette- Dear Sir, Answering your favor of the 21st inst. with reference to the enclosed letter from Mr. Witt, woul- say that the facts are as Mr. Wit- states, and had Mr. Hirstius desire to have East Twenty-fifth place placemen to be appointed to the would have been done long ago. A the time it was proposed to make this opening Mr. Hirstius invited me to meet with him a committee at the close of one of the council meetings The committee represented the pro- perty owners and residents on Ceda avenue, where the improvement was intended to be made. They protested that Mr. Hirstius finally agreed was that Mr. Hirstius finally agree not to have it made, AND ASSED M TO HAVE NO FURTHER STEP TAKEN IN THE MATTER. It woul- not until recently that the case which we had started in court to condemn the property was dismissed. We have always made it a rule to act in ac- ordance with the wishes of the court slim represent the wishes of the kind are to be made. It therefore seems that MR HIRSTIUS ALONE IS TO BLAME FOR NOT HAVING THE STREET OPENED. Yours very truly. W. J. SPRINGBORN Director Board of Public Service Tell Us About it.

The proof of the value of our work is that we are being imitated 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."

The "cub" reporter is the greenest reporter on the staff of a newspaper. When anything particularly stupid happens on the paper, he is the first to be accused, and he is usually rightly accused. The only salvation for him is to improve, which he does in nine cases out of a dozen. The Boston Journal told recently of an amusing "break" of a wholly innocent nature which a certain cub made. If it shows anything, it shows that a thorough training in the Bible is useful in other walks of life than the ministry. The reporter had been sent to a suburb to report a sermon. He arrived late, near the close of the service, and took a seat near the door. When the last hymn was over, he asked his neighbor, an elderly gentleman: "What was the text of the sermon?" "Who Art Thou?" replied the other. "Beston reporter," replied the other. The man smiled. Subsequently he told the preacher, who next Sunday told the congregation—at the cub's expense—Youth's Companion. Speaking of Fires. Roy Bone, a brother of United States District Attorney Harry Bone, several years ago was a reporter on the Wichita Beacon. In going to a fire one of the members of the fire department one was thrown from a hose cart and killed. Bone wrote a head, with this as the first deck: "Gone to His Last Fire." The piece got into the paper and Bone was promptly "fired."—Kansas City Journal. "She telephones me every day." "What is the reason of that." "I owe her a call and she is determined to collect it."

Nos. 5099 and 5104, All Seams Allowed.—With the approach of cool weather the coat becomes a very important part of the wardrobe. The new styles have many features which differ from those of the spring and summer. We show an advanced model in the accompanying illustration. The coat is semi-fitting. The front forms a panel, joined to the sides by long French darts. In like manner the back is seamless in the center, the shaping being accomplished by means of long seams, similar to the French darts used in front. The coat buttons over at one side. The pattern (5099) is cut in sizes 14, 16 and 18 years. There have been several changes in the coats of the coming season, which mark them as different from those of the past summer. One of these is in their being closed much more snugly, and another is in the arrangement of the collar and cuffs. The coat is in 36-inch length. It is fitted by means of long shoulder darts and by corresponding seams in the back. There is a side-back section and a side-front section which meet under the arm. The neck is finished by a collar differing slightly from the familiar shawl collar in being more narrow and not so long. The sleeves are the usual coat sleeve, gathered at the shoulder. The pattern (5104) is cut in sizes 32 to 44 inches bust measure. To procure this pattern send 10 cents to "Picture Department" of this paper.

These must be simple and suited to the season. For the lightweight woolen fabrics, which are the best for general wear, the design submitted herewith is very nice. It has quite a deep yoke, and the balance of the waist is attached to this, gathered along the edge of the yoke and plain on the shoulders. The skirt is simply gathered, and is attached to the waist beneath a belt. The sleeves are of bishop design. The pattern (5097) is cut in sizes 2 to 12 years.

"Our house used to smell soapy and steamy wash day," says a well-known man, "but since my wife began buying Easy Task laundry soap, there is no more of that. I've investigated that soap and find it is made of purest cocoanut oil, cleanest tallow, borax and naphtha, and that it not only cleans, but antisepticics clothes, cooking vessels and everything else was washed with it. We tried it first by buying two cakes for ten cents, with the understanding that our money would be refunded if it didn't make good. Of course, it made good." The Enemies Apropos of the enmity, now happily buried, that used to exist between Minneapolis and St. Paul, Senator Clapp said at a dinner in the former city: "I remember an address on careless building that I once heard in Minneapolis. "Why,' said the speaker in the course of this address, 'one inhabitant of St. Paul is killed by accident in the streets every 48 hours.' "A bitter voice from the rear of the hall interrupted: "Well, it ain't enough,' it said." Not Impregnable Horace Avery, K. C., just appointed a judge, is one of the mordant wits of the British bar. One day, cross-examining a recalcitrant witness, he asked: "What are you?" "A retired gentleman," proudly asserted the ex-cheesemonger. "Well," snarled Avery, "when you achieved the position of gentleman, why did you retire from it?" Femarkable Young Lady.

When prominent men realize the injurious effects of coffee and the change in health that Postum can bring, they are glad to lend their testimony for the benefit of others. A superintendent of public schools in a Southern state says: "My mother, since her early childhood, was an inverteate coffee drinker, had been troubled with her heart for a number of years and complained of that 'weak all over' feeling and sick stomach. "Some time ago I was making an official visit to a distant part of the country and took dinner with one of the merchants of the place. I noticed a somewhat peculiar flavor of the coffee, and asked him concerning it. He replied that it was Postum. I was so pleased with it that, after the meal was over, I bought a package to carry home with me, and had wife prepare some for the next meal; the whole family liked it so well that we discontinued coffee and used Postum entirely. "I had really been at times very anxious concerning my mother's condition, but we noticed that after using Postum for a short time, she felt so much better than she did prior to its use, and had little trouble with her heart and no sick stomach; that the headaches were not so frequent, and her general condition much improved. This continued until she was as well and hearty as the rest of us. "I know Postum has benefited myself and the other members of the family, but in a more marked degree in the case of my mother, as she was a victim of long standing." Ever read the above letter! A new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of human PROMISED A LIVELY TIME Mark Twain's Outline of Editorial Policy He Had Made Up His Mind to Adopt. Mark Twain took the editorial chair on the Buffalo Express in August, 1869, and this is the paragraph in which he made the readers acquainted with his new responsibility: "I only wish to assure parties having a friendly interest in the prosperity of this journal that I am not going to hurt the paper deliberately and intentionally at any time. I am not going to introduce any startling reform or in any way attempt to make trouble. I am simply going to do my plain, unpretending duty—when I cannot get out of it. I shall work diligently and honestly and faithfully at all times and upon all occasions—when privation and want shall compel me to do so. In writing I shall confine myself to the truth, except when it is attended with inconvenience. I shall witheringly rebuke all forms of crime and misconduct, except when committed by the party inhabiting my own vest. I shall not make use of slang or vulgarity upon any occasion or in any circumstances and shall never use profanity except in discussing house rent and taxes. Indeed, upon second thought, I will not even then, for it is inelegant, un-Christian and degrading. I shall not often middle with politics, because we have a political editor who is already excellent and only needs a term in the penitentiary to be perfect. I shall not write any poetry unless I conceive a spite against the subscribers." TINY BABY'S PITIFUL CASE "Our baby when two months old was suffering with terrible eczema from head to foot, all over her body. The baby looked just like a skinned rabbit. We were unable to put clothes on her. At first it seemed to be a few mattered pimples. They would break the skin and peel off leaving the underneath skin red as though it were scalds. Then a few more pimples would appear and spread all over the body, leaving the baby all raw without skin from head to foot. On top of her head there appeared a heavy scab a quarter of an inch thick. It was awful to see so small a baby look as she did. Imagine! The doctor was afraid to put his hands to the child. We tried several doctors' remedies but all failed. "Then we decided to try Cuticura. By using the Cuticura Ointment was softened the scab and it came off. Under this, where the real matter was, by washing with the Cuticura Soap and applying the Cuticura Ointment, a new skin soon appeared. We also gave baby four drops of the Cuticura Resolvent three times daily. After three days you could see the baby gaining a little skin which would peel off and heal underneath.

The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science may have been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh.
