TWENTY-NINTH YEAR. NO. 47. II THE UNION THE ESTABLISHMENT TWENTY-NINTH Black Picture Hat of This S THE big black picture hat, which is the queen of each summer's mininery, has arrived. It is as large as ever and bears its wealth of plumes in the prevailing up-standing mode. It is as beautiful as ever and has contrived to be more than ever interesting as to shape. Crowns are moderate in size or small and of well known shapes. But brims! there in lie revelations. They curve, they flare, they turn abruptly upward or swerve downward, they narrow suddenly, they are dented, or they "flow" with a method in their madness. But they never forget to be graceful. Brims are, without doubt eccentric, but it is eccentricity with a purpose. One feels that it is made to set off the face of the wearer and that the design would not merit a second look without it. As it is the eye rests with delight upon hat after hat whose lines are new and lovely. Each one is designed for some special type of face and every one may find a becoming model if she tries long enough. The return to the normal headsize is another vantage point for the big picture hat. Other hats as well are Indoor Dresses for Girls of From Ten to Twelve and Four to Six Years. The first illustration shows a useful dress that may be made up in fine serge, cloth, poplinette or cashmere. The bodice has a box-pleat in center front and one tuck each side back; the yoke is of different material or silk and is trimmed with small buttons. The one-piece skirt is joined to bodice under a material band stitched at each edge. The sleeves are gathered into cuffs that match the yoke. The second is for a little girl of four to six years, and may be carried out in a variety of materials. The lower part of bodice and the skirt are cut together; they are laid in flat pleats turning from the center and are set to a square yoke that is outlined with galloon sharply mitred at the corners. The bishop sleeves are gathered into wristbands trimmed to match yoke. To Match the Material. Some of the new side frills and jabots are attached to collars of matching material. THE GAZETTE now blocked with smaller head sizes than for the past two or three seasons. Models in which the lines are simple are sometimes faced and at other times finished with a flange of velvet. But the majority of these hats use nothing in their composition but the shape and the trimming, and need nothing more. Among the novelties that have been most successful are those shapes in which the brim is double. That is the under brim or facing is made of the brad and is simply a continuation of the upper brim. This gives a soft round edge which is vastly becoming. Big, up-standing clusters of Paradise feathers, some times mounted with an ornament, are often used on these hats. Paradise in fact divides honors with ostrich while heron disappears from the world of millinery. The black picture hat is for her who may have more than one chapean for dress. Notwithstanding that it is black, it is conspicuous and in the new shapes, intended to be a little daring. It is not for all occasions and it remains the queen of hats. JULIA BOTTOMLEY. Woman With Clever Fingers Can Turn Out Numerous Home Made Articles of Neckwear. The woman with clever fingers can turn out for herself numerous smart ties and stocks if she is keen enough to copy the shop ones. Fashion jabots from handkerchief linen or fine lawn cut into oval, round or oblong tabs that reach to the bust line or half way above it. Finish the edge with a narrow buttonhole hole, in small scallops all around or in straight buttonholding on the sides and three deep scallops on bottom. In center put a medallion of lace with material cut away beneath, and around it embroider a row or two of pin dots or small eyelets to form a frame. Newer are the medallions made with a center of punchwork, with a design embroidered or outlined around it. These tabs are most serviceable in all white—using fine mercurized cotton—but are pretty in color which is repeated in the collar, belt and stockings. As they are not plaited, laundering is simplified. Another smart tie to be worn with a turned down or Dutch collar is made from a straight piece of heavy linen three inches long and one inch wide. Round the ends scoop out sides slightly and finish with straight edge of buttonhoning. Make long eyelens about half an inch of center and through them run velvet ribbon to match embroidery. The ends of the ribbon project beyond the ends of the linen. If desired, a small design in eyelen or solid embroidery can be worked in each of the rounded ends midway between eyelen and edge. Ball Slippers of Irish Lace A recent novelty in expensive ball slippers is the Irish lace slipper, the first consignment of which made its appearance in America only a short time ago. A pair of these hand-errocheted slippers takes almost two weeks to make, and the retail price is in the neighborhood of $50.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. ESTABLISHED AUGUST 25, 1883 AND ISSUED EVERY WEEK ON TIME SINCE. SHAW COMMENCEMENT THIRTY YOUNG DOCTORS AND FOUR PHARMACISTS TURNED OUT THIS YEAR BY THE UNIVERSITY—EXERCISES ATTENDED BY REPRESENTATIVE GATHERING. Raleigh, N. C.—The largest assembly of cultured colored men and women ever seen together in this city attended the commencement exercises of Shaw university. All sections of our great country were represented on the spacious rostrum. When President Meserve arose, surrounded by his faculty and many friends both from the south and far distant New England, the chapel was full to overflowing. Shaw university has done a great work among negroes for more than fifty years. It has been a great and leading exponent in the higher and industrial education of the negro. Young men and women graduating from this school are doing a great work for the elevation and Christianizing of the race in all parts of the world. Thirty young doctors and four pharmacists received their degrees. The following young men received prizes for excellence in study during the four years of their school life: The Lewis prize, S. P. Sebastian, honorable mention, A. D. Brown and F. D. Brown; the Tuskegee prize, R. S. Vass, honorable mention, A. D. Brown and F. D. Brown; the McKee prize, A. B. McKenzie; the Knox prize, J. W. Kay; the Battle prize, J. S. Thompson of second year; honorable mention, Dennis Branch, second year. The music was under Mrs. Lovey. Bachelor of theology, William M. Morris, Latta H. Powell and Washing ton Scott. Six young men received the degree of Bachelor of Arts and 22 received certificates of graduation from the normal department. Honorary degrees were conferred by the board of trustees as follows: Charles R. Frazier, Mast Arts; Rev. W. R. Pettiford, Birchham, Ala., LL. D.; Rev. A. B. Vail, T. Raleigh, N. C., D. N.; Rev. George O. Bullock, Winston, C. D. NO SUFFRAGAN BISHOP BUT THE DELEGATES TO SOUTH CAROLINA DIOCESAN COUNCIL OF THE EPISCOPAL CHURCH APPROPRIATED $500 FOR NEGRO ARCHDEACON. Beaufort, S. C.-By a vote of nearly four to one, the South Carolina doeasan council of the Episcopal church decided against creating the position of suffragan bishop, to be held by a negro, at this time. As a substitute for the negro suffragan, the council appropriated money for the maintenance of a negro archdeacon for work among the negro members of the church in this state. The resolution against the suffragan bishop proposal was adopted without debate, the council considering the winter's open discussion of the matter sufficient to enlighten all the delegates. The resolution was adopted after the presentation of the majority report of the committee, favoring the plan, the minority report opposing it. The resolution offered by the Rev. W. H. Barnwell of Stateburg, read as follows: Resolved, that this council is not in favor of the election of a negro suffragan bishop at this time." The majority report in favor was read at the morning session by the Rev. Walter Mitchell and the minority report against the Negro suffragan by R. I. Manning. Both were referred to the council, sitting as a committee of the whole, in the afternoon. The council took up the reports in executive session. After passing on the suffragan bishop, $200 was appropriated for a negro archdeacon for work among the nee- persons. This is a new departure in this diocese. BIG NEGRO EXPOSITION ALMOST ASSURED A great question like an appropriation for an Emancipation Exposition for American Negroes would naturally precipitate acrimonious debate on the race question in the United States senate. Before unanimously passing on April 2, a bill by Senator Bradley of Kentucky appropriating $250,000.00 for a big Negro show probably in Savannah. Ga., to celebrate the semicentennial of the signing of the emancipation proclamation, asperity of temper by some of the Negro-despising element and a surprising vein of broad-minded cordiality had to be turned loose in the senate for sensational press matter. All of it made good reading. Senator Root of New York delivered a passionate eulogy of the achievements of the Negro race; Senator Newlands declared in favor of race separation; Senator Bradley reminded his colleagues that southern Negroes unselfishly protected the white women and children of that section during the Civil war; Senator Hitchcock could see the appropriation misused to give Negroes jobs merely to spend government money. But finally they got together on the proposition and voted in favor of it. If Senator Tillman's pitchfork had not been bent beyond hope of being repaired, could you imagine a United States senate voting unanimously on such a question? But wait! Members of the house of representatives have yet their chance to create a scene while considering the bill. WORTH BILLION Negroes of America Own in Real Estate Alone Many Millions. WONDER OF THE AGES—"HAS MADE GREATEST PROGRESS EVER MADE," SAYS DR. HAWKINS. Send the negro back to Africa? Absurd, impossible. More than a billion dollars' worth of United States real estate which he owns in his own name in the United States is not easily to be taken from him. Besides, the negro is not an African—he is an American. "African" is a misnomer. Why try to send him to a country which is not his own? So says Dr. J. R. Hawkins of North Carolina, secretary and commissioner of education for the African Methodist Episcopal church, a delegate to the general conference, at the Allen chapel, according to the Kansas City Times. Dr. Hawkins has made a study of the business status of colored people in connection with his regular work as one of the foremost educators. NEGRO PROGRESS IN HALF A CENTURY. "It probably will startle the world when it realizes that we have acquired in the last 50 years over $1,000,000,000 in real estate," Dr. Hawkins said. "And that is only the beginning of the rapid forward march which the negro is making as a business man. The negro could not help being a business man. He was surrounded with it in the years of his slavery. He was taught how to drive a bargain in horses or real estate, even if his master didn't teach him how to read and write. "There are 400 self-supporting newspapers, daily and weekly, owned and published by negroes in the United States; 3,000 physicians have been graduated from negro and white schools and are now practicing among their people; 2,000 lawyers have been admitted to the bar in the United States courts of justice and 380 authors are found among our race. AFRICA A FAIRY TALE. "We own 41 schools and colleges, representing an investment of $38,000,000, and $45,000,000 has been spent in church property for negroes. Negro men own and control 51 banks, which are prosperous and flourishing, and $650,000 has been invested in negro libraries. And it is significant that in the southland negroes own 180,000 farms on which 50 years ago they trolled to the crack of the slave driver's whip. "The negro is a born American, and he feels it is his country. Africa has no call on him. It is as a fairy tale to him. Pestilence and disease are not uncommon in Africa, but gospel, the reformers and teachers of the youth are argued to warn and instruct that better conditions may be brought to pass. Criminal instincts cannot be attributed to all who break the law and the idea of no material gain and of swift and terrible retribution will destroy in many cases the tendency and thought toward the committing of crime. Holdup men are never at ease and seldom wealthy. FARM PROPERTY AMONG NEGROES The value of farm property owned and rented by colored farmers has, in the southern states, increased from 50 per cent. to 225 per cent. in the last ten years. In Texas, for instance, it has gone from $56,000,000 to $113,000,000; in North Carolina from $29,000,000 to $81,000,000, and in Georgia from $48,000,000 to $158,000,000. Nor has this been merely increased in the value of the same land. In these ten states the Negroes controlled, in 1910, 3,683,154 more acres than in 1900. It is not yet possible to separate the land owners and the renters. We only know that the owners have increased in eight states from 125,413 to 149,235 in these ten years. We dare affirm that no class of white peasantry in any European state has in the face of the most favorable ordinary conditions paralleled this record which the colored people have made...The Crisis. MAKE FAVORABLE IMPRESSION. Tuskegee, Ala.—Among the delegates to the recent International Conference on the Negro, held at Tuskegee institute, were three distinguished representatives from Barbadoes, British West Indies. These gentlemen were: Washington Harper, shipwright; A. R. Parkinson, teacher, and Elliott Durant, journalist, all of Bridgetown. An interesting thing about the selection of these gentlemen as delegates is that the governor of Barbadoes called a special meeting of the people to select these delegates and co-operated in every way in the matter of arranging for these men to visit the Tuskegee school. Mr. Harper, who calls himself a shipwright, is a most eloquent speaker, and all of the delegates were keenly alive to the needs of the little island in the Caribbean sea. During their visit to the east they have met many old friends, among others Dr. York Russell of New York, who was a fellow teacher in Barbadoes with Mr. Parkinson. Reports which come to Tuskegee are to the effect that no others in attendance at the recent conference were more helpful and made a better impression than these three men from Barbadoes. PROVES SOUTH IS THE PLACE QUARTO-CENTENNIAL OF WATERS NORMAL INSTITUTE AT WIN TON, N. C., ATTENDED BY THOUSANDS. Winton, N. C.—(Special.)—The recent quarto-centennial celebration of Waters Normal Institute, this town, was an event that forcefully portrayed the fact that the south and especially the rural district is the place for the masses of Negroes. Thousands of representative farmers and a number of business men of the race from every section of the state and parts of Virginia contiguous to Winton were present. The history of the institution is interesting and is an encouraging evidence of the Afro-American progress in the right direction. The central figure of the occasion was a man who is silently doing a work that rightly places him in the galaxy of true leaders. During the summer the year of 1884, the late Dr. Tupper, founder and president of Shaw University, Raleigh, N. C., exhibited his great characteristics by becoming profoundly interested in Negroes in Eastern North Carolina to the extent that he gave $10,000 to the Rev. Dr. C. S. Brown, who had just graduated from that university and asked him to come to this town to begin a work that later proved a wholesome factor in the lives of thousands. He and began his work in the woods and among a large number of the race who were cursed by whisky. At this notable rural gathering hundreds of graduates of this energizing institution of learning, progressive farmers and other successful men and women who have become a constructive force in their respective communities because of the training received at this school and the helpful and far-reaching influence germinated by building a thrifty settlement around the school revealed in a concrete manner what the honest, energetic and well trained Negro can accomplish in the south. Located in a strictly rural center where nature deals bountiful to those who persistently and intelligently vex the soil, the growth of the school has undoubtedly been remarkable. Starting only with $10,000 Dr. Brown today has established a plant worth $25,000 and its stimulating propaganda is felt in every section of the state. It has created a new life here and dethroned superstitions and many other evils so woefully affecting the Negro in many other sections. The white people in Eastern Carolina highly praised its worth and the leading people of that race say that its influence upon the community is hard to estimate by a monetary standard. This they claim is due to the sane leadership and character of Dr. Brown, its founder and principal and prominent in many movements for the uplift of the Negro. A commendable feature of the work is that the hundreds of graduates and thousands of undergraduates of same are imbued with the mission of the institution and they are at work in various sections of the south carrying the germinating idea of its founder and reaching those of the race who needs instruction. A distinguishing feature is that its first graduate has spent years working in Africa to help redeem Africa. Thousands of farmers made the celebration an educational source of good for them, and the exhibits of the students inspired them. Contributing to the success of the week was the Chowan Educational association that convened here. This was largely attended. The presence of Dr. Chas. S. Meserve gave impetus and hundreds gave him an ovation during his address to them. Many phases of the Negro's activities were strongly touched upon and he gave undeniable facts showing why the Negro should remain in the south. He narrated many striking examples of many dangers affecting the race by entirely too large a number of same leaving the country and crowding the cities. The address to the graduating class by Hon. John C. Scarborough, superintendent of education for this county, was practical and wholesome. A splendid revelation of what the school is doing in causing the farmers to increase their property holdings and saving accounts was brought out in the statistics of Dr. Brown in making his annual report to the trustee board, composed of leading farmers, business men and a number of preachers of Negroid descent. He aroused pronounced enthusiasm as he pointed out the way that the farmer of color could enhance his opportunities by sticking to the soil. The report showed the school to be in an excellent condition. The farmers raised several thousand dollars in their rally for the school. ILLITERACY DECREASING IN GEORGIA. M. L. Brittain, state superintendent of schools for Georgia, is authority for the following statement as to the reduction of illiteracy in his state: The statistics of 1880 show white illiteracy in George to have been 12 per cent. The census figures of 1910, recently made public, show that the percentage for 1910 is but seven. Of course, in 1870, during the lean years, the illiteracy crept up to 25 per cent, but it has been reduced steadily. In 1900 is was 11 per cent. Illiteracy among the negroes has decreased from 92 per cent in 1860 to 30 per cent in 1910. The illiteracy among negroes in 1900 was 52 per cent. SINGLE COPY FIVE CENTS. AFRO-AMERICAN CULLINGS Vampires of the street, they should be called; these animals whose unbridled passions make them prey on any living creature and leaves no man safe from their attacks. It should be a man's privilege to live in protection, when he will or as he will, so long as his will does not conflict to hindrance of society, but in this city of the free, a man may be mistaken for liberty, a man may not leave his home with any assurance of returning if his way happens to lead him in certain districts of our city. Here a many ma ynot express his opinion without a challenge which may result in his death. Here he may not seek to rectify some mistake less some prowler of the street make him pay for the privilege with his life. Where are our laws, where are our courts, where our police that this craze of affairs continues unchallenged, unchecked? Never a week passes over our head but some life has paid the forfeit to another's life passion. Scarcely a day passes but some man has taken judgment and justice in his own hands and blotted out some other to satisfy his malevolence. To many the sacredness of individual rights has no meaning. To them the home ties have no value; and for much the majesty of the law has no terror. The time has come when because of the technical skill of the lawyers, the film flam practiced in the courts, the criminal no longer fears the penalty of his crime. Those who should be vigilant to rid society of these men are indifferent or careless. Laxity in the court room leaves no home free from fear that some of its members may be violently taken away because of the prey of some street tramp or lawless individual. In this enlightened city, there is a reign of terror and crimes likened unto the days of the middle ages. Let the wholesale murdering be stopped at any cost. Let our feelings not be constantly harassed by evil or crime and license. Let the men who have committed murder be dealt with according to the law on the statutes of our states. Let the criminal feel the real force of the punishment he invites. Punishment is the only antidote for heinous crimes. The man who is so hardened that he can ruthlessly take the life he cannot give is also so hardened that there is but little hope that a lentient sentence will help him. When crime ceases to go free because of sentiment or money crime will then stand in fear of punishment and this city will not have a reign of terror, which has been on the increase for the past year. The duty of the court is to protect the citizens, their rights, their property and their lives. It is not its duty to lay a premium on crime abrogating punishment. We beg the judges on the bench, the state's attorney and the honorable lawyers at the bar to aid the crusade against crimes by sternly setting their faces against light sentences and easy discharges of criminals brought before them.—Illinois Chronicle. We have noted this striking difference between the white press and the negro press in their comment regarding the frightful tragedy of the Titanic! Colored writers invariably infer or pre-suppose it to have been the work of God, or at least that God in some way had some hand or purpose in bringing it about. The white man discuses the matter without any such inference or prepossession. So far as can be judged from this latter's writings, God was not in it either directly or indirectly. Man alone was responsible. were there enough collapsible boats? Enough life preservers? Neglect to provide binoculars? Anything wrong about the mechanism of the wireless apparatus? If so, man was responsible, the error can be corrected and the banner of progress can be planted higher up the heights. But if God did it, then there is no need to try again. Let the army of progress camp where it is and never move a step further. Such is the legitimate consequences of two radically different ideas when traced to their logical conclusion. But what has always puzzled us is this, is it a necessary law of mind, that the under man habitually thinks of any unforeseen tragedy happening to the man in advance as having been sent by some power above. But this much is certain, had the man in advance continued to think like the man farthest down both would today have been nearer the jungle than they are. All the progress known today has been made possible by cultivating the habit of looking for the cause of defeat and victory in the only world known to man. It is by reason of this fact that man has conquered the world. He never would have done so had he held to the silly belief that his misfortunes, defeats, reverses and tragedies were sent upon him by some God or Devil. Mankind will benefit in countless ways by that frightful sea-tragedy which we all deplore. Nobody would be benefited, however, if the masters of thought and of fort believed for a moment that a God sent that superb ship to the bottom of the deep in order to show his power. Foolish ideas of that sort dominated the human mind during that night of a thousand years known in history as the Dark Ages. The benefit effects of those ideas are traceable in all of the occupations of man from farming to pharmacy. No race is capable of leading in the march of the world today that is not first able to divest itself of these ceremonies and grave-clothes of the mind.—Dallas Express. In a news article published some weeks ago attention was called to the fact that a movement was on foot to have a national conference of waiters to consider the subject of negro waiters throughout the country. This is important, vastly important, and we hope it will be done. The fact that all classes of working people as well as captains of industry are constantly holding conventions to consider their condition with a view of improving that condition. People who manufacture wall paper hold conventions; people who manufacture picture frames hold conventions; people who manufacture brooms hold conventions; people who manufacture clocks hold conventions; people who raise pigs, cows and chickens hold conventions. While all this has been going on among the white people the negro has been thinking far too long that he could benefit himself, by simply holding conventions declaring in favor of "manhood rights" and all the rest of it. We have gone on with this nonsense until the negro waiters have begun to lose their bread and butter. By all means let us have conventions of negro waiters.—New York Age. The St. Louis Argus is fighting a condition not a theory that exists nearly everywhere. It says: People who sweat their eyeballs out to earn a small sum and then pour it all back into the coffers of those who offer no means of getting any of it back save the most mental and poorly paid work, will never be able to get a foothold economically. Remember, that every dollar spent with a negro business or professional man has ten chances to reach you again to one chance for the dollar spent with the other fellow. Negro grocers, physicians, lawyers, dentists, druggists and what not are almost unanimous in saying that the people who can best afford to pay for high class service take it to the white man. It is from the mass of "just ordinary" people that the negro business and professional man receives his support. If these negroes will not patronize negro enterprises, then let them be put out of the service of negroes. Keep tab on them, and when the time comes to fill a place, put in a negro who will spend his money among his own people. There have been few undertakings on American soil wherein the negro has not borne a praiseworthy part. Mr. Hensen at the north pole with Peary is a case in point. Notwithstanding the intense cold he bore his part in this perilous dash to the pole with all the heroism of his companions and has written his name next to that of Peary himself in his great exploit. It is an indication of the remarkable qualities of Hensen's mind that he has written and published a book on his experiences in the far north. In the years to come these two records, that of Peary and Hensen, will remain the only literary monuments of the first successful dash to the pole. A colored man was brought before a police judge charged with stealing chickens. He pleaded guilty and received sentence, when the judge asked him how it was he managed to lift those chickens right under the window of the owner's house when there was a dog in the yard. "Hit wouldn't be of no use, judge," said the man, "to try to 'splain dis thing to you all. If you were to try it you like as not would get yer hide full o' shot an' get no chickens, nuther. If you want to engage in any rassality, judge, yo' better stick to de bench, whar yo' am familiar."—Zion's Advocate. Jack Johnson introduced his talk before a theater audience in Chicago recently by saying that he used to see white folks celebrating on July 4, but that the colored people never had much to rejoice over or to touch off fireworks, and the like. That's why he changed things for them and gave them an equal chance to make merry on that big day, which, he said, should always be remembered as the time when one great athlete of the colored race defeated a white man. While some people are discussing, and some are "cussing" him, he can "saw wood and say nothing." Just strive to educate head, heart and hand, and reach the highest mental, moral, physical and industrial development possible and get the elements so fixed in him that all the world can stand up and say, "This is a man."

As we go to press, the indications (from Chicago) are that neither Taft nor Roosevelt will be the Republican nominee for president, this year. This is what we have hoped and prayed for all along. It will, too, be the salvation of the Republican party at the polls in November. The outlook for the nomination of Associate Justice Hughes of the U. S. Supreme Court, a New Yorker, grows brighter daily. If he is not the nominee then let it be our good and great friend, Senator Joseph Benson Foraker. W. A. McAlpin, a railway mail clerk, on his first run from here to Union, Miss, returned to Laurel, Miss, showing welts, bruises and cuts which he said he received at the hands of a crowd of white brutes at Union. He said he was called out of an eating house and at the point of a revolver marched down the railroad track. He was forced to remove his clothing, and the scoundrels with whips gave him a severe beating, telling him they "wanted no Negroes on his job." He was sent to Laurel to relieve O. L. Parker, a white clerk. No governmental action has been taken, to punish the brutes. Hurrah, for Taft? Miss Isabel Vanderwall, of East Orange, N. J., graduated recently from the Women's Medical College of Central Park West and 101st street, New York City, with highest honors. She is the only Colored student attending or having attended this college. Miss Vanderwall will be remembered as the recent honor graduate of the Orange High School and whose determination in attending her class dance and reception created considerable commotion and a newspaper sensation. Good! for Miss Vanderwall. May her kind increase! The race needs them greatly these days. How any intelligent, loyal and man- A GREAT SUMMER EXCURSION. We desire to call the attention of our good people of means, especially our business and professional men and women, school-teachers and others who are accustomed to take annual vacations, to Mr. C. T. White's advertisements elsewhere in The Gazette. An old and experienced railroad man in Canada and the United States, a man of intelligence and means, splendid standing with his own people and the business world in both countries genial, accommodating and a gentle man, Mr. White is an ideal person to conduct just such a great excursion treat as he advertises. This is an opportunity that has never before been presented to our people, and The Gazette is anxious that they grasp it as much for the future as this particular much for the future as for this particular instance. Mr. White should be encouraged in order that such opportunities may be multiplied. He has at his back the great Canadian Pacific Railroad, and those who take advantage of this great summer excursion can depend upon the best accommodations ones—sleepers, diners, and the largest improved service and cars on the best trains in either country. Write him for full particulars and ask any question in relation to the excursion that occurs to you, and he will give prompt and satisfactory replies and assurances, and whatever else you may request. As the time is short, do not delay but write him at once. A NEW BOOK.

SATURDAY, JUNE 15. 1912 COLORED STUDIERS MIDNIGHT ASSASSINS THE SQUARE DEAL DOOP OF HOPE Taft rags the Soldiers to Roosevelt Who Kicks Them In. THE BLACK BATTALION STILL BEING PERSECUTED BY ROOSEVELT AND TAFT---THE COLONEL SAYS THE INNOCENT MEN ARE GUILTY--- SHAME! O! SUCH CDNTEMPTIBLE PERSECUTION. Springfield, O.—When Col. Theodore Roosevelt was here, in May, "stumping" the state in his effort to win it at the state primaries for his candidacy, he again pronounced GUILTY the one hundred and sixty-seven members of "The Black Battalion" he and his Secretary of War, Wm. Howard Taft, "lynched" when they discharged them without honor as a result of the Brownsville fire. The fact that Joseph Benson Forner had THRICE proven them INNOCENT with the testimony submitted in the U. S. Senate and other official inquiries, seems to mean nothing to him or Taft. Col. Roosevelt, when speaking in Cleveland on May 18, boastingly reiterated his infamous and untruthful charge, and in so doing forfeited all right to any consideration whatever, as a candidate for the Republican Presidential nomination at the hands of loyal, self and race respecting, manly Afro-American voters. The same is true of President Thomas J. Kennedy given in the following Roosevelt speech the Browness matter, delivered here and in Cleveland, in May: "I want here in Springfield, to an audience containing white men and women and Colored men and women, to comment on one of the features of the present campaign which I think is deeply discredible to our opponents." "A certain Lorimer Congressman from Illinois, who is supporting Mr. Taft, as his chief, Mr. Lorimer, did, has come into Ohio, bringing a number of members of the three companies of the Colored regiment from which three companies were discharged on account of the riot at Brownsville. Those men were brought here by the Taft managers to assail the Colored townsville and to try to get our Colored fellow citizens to vote against me. "I want you to get perfectly clean in your minds one thing. I always accept full responsibility for everything I do. I did take the action at Brownville, and my judgment in taking it has been ratified over and over again by every competent man who investigated the matter. (NOT SO!) I want you to understand I am not taking back by one finger's breadth any action of mine. I stand by what I did, and if I lose every delegate in every state in the Union by taking it, I would take that action over again. (That is why he ought to and will lose the nomination!) "Let me say to the Colored men as well as the white men, with all the emphasis that is in me, that I am the best friend of the Colored race when I set my face like flint against mob violence by either white men or Colored. I shall always do everything in my power to put a stop to lynch law, to violence, to any of the dreadful race conflicts. I shall sometimes put a lead appeal at all times to every decent white man to take the lead in putting an instant stop to mob violence at the expense of the Colored man. "Let the Colored man realize that I am literally acting in a way most essential to his benefit when I frown on violence by the Colored man just as I frown on it by white men. I stand for a square deal, if the Colored man shows the quality that would entitle him to respect if he were a white man. I hold the man in a citizen who fails him in such respect. "On the other hand, it is a dreadful, wrong to the Colored race for the Colored man not to himself uphold the punishment of any Colored man for acts committed for which a white man would also be punished. (They do!) isn't that pretty square? "So I want you to understand that I stand by my action absolutely, and that I hold that that action of the Colored race as in the interest of the white race. (Ridiculous!) But I want to call your attention to the fact that the Taft managers, at a time that Mr. Taft is in the state himself, without one word of protest from him, are trying to use that incident to my discredit and to his advantage. They have got one of the soldiers who was discharged lecturing in the state, making campaign rallies and asking for Mr. Taft against me, and without one word of protest from Mr. Taft. I acted on the recommendation of Mr. Taft when he was my Secretary of War. Bares Taft's Recommendation. "I have here Taft's report for 1906 as Secretary of War in my cabinet in which he deals with that case. Any one can see it; any one can get it. And it opens thus on the Brownsville affair." "I am very sorry to report the commission of a heinous crime by certain members of the battalion of the 25th infantry at Brownsville, Texas." "That is what he calls it—a heinous crime." (The soldiers committed no crime. The testimony proves this. He then goes on and discusses it at length; gives the reasons, and in my judgment convincing reasons, why he is convinced that the men of that batallion either committed the crime, or were a party to it, concealed it and says this among other things. "The only means of hiding the military service is the band of would be murderers of women and children, and actual murderers of one man, is the discharge of the entire battalion. No real or logical distinction can be made under these circumstances between the crime of treason and the crime of murder." "He then justifies, as absolutely necessary what was done in discharging the battalion, and continues: 'Should hereafter facts be disclosed, or a new state of facts arise from which it can be inferred that the public service will suffer no detriment from reentry of any one of these men into the service, the ineligibility can be removed by a mere executive order now, when the is Mr. Taft's own report upon which I acted. I want you to understand Taft Must Share Blame. "I do not shift any responsibility on Mr. Taft. I take it all, I looked into that case, I am responsible for my action; I took the only action proper. But Mr. Taft should be responsible for his action, too. "Mr. Taft recommended me when he was Secretary of the Army that those men he was assigned to serve for a heinous crime. He states that that crime was as grave an offense as treason, and he says that if any man exculpates himself from it that he can be restored to the service by an executive order. Does Mr. Taft now say that when he made the report to me and published it and submitted it to Congress, he said what was written (he certain did not) by this sending the soldiers into Ohio, in May.) "If he says so, let him give the reasons for his changes. More than that. He has for three years been President and he could have reinstated every man of that regiment to a book on his recommendation was a wrong action; (It was wrong and the innocent man should long ago have been reinstated.) Mr. Taft, in my judgment cannot and will not affirm that his action then was not proper. (He will never get耐严 until he does; nor will Roosevelt.) Unfair. Holds Colonel. "He cannot say it was not in his power to have restored all those men. Therefore I hold that it is wrong, and I am speaking with guarded moderation when I say it is wrong, for Mr. Taft, without a word of protest, to allow his managers to import into the state of Ohio, while he is himself in Ohio, men who try to persuade our Colored fellow citizens, that I and not he should be blamed for what was done in the Brownsville case. (Both guilty!) "Let me repeat, I do not want any misunderstanding. If Mr. Taft had not been in my Cabinet, I would have taken exactly the action I did. I accept the full responsibility for what I did, and I do not intend that he shall shirk the responsibility for what he did, that is all." (And we will hold both responsible, too!) What Senator Foraker Says. Speaking of the alleged Brownsville "riot," Senator Foraker said, in the U. S. Senate, Jan. 7, 1907: "If what is contended for here—to show that the charge is true—that there was a conspiracy, such a consummation of it, and that many men engaged in it and the number of accessories before and after the fact necessary to enable it to be carried out—it is a thing that has happened without a precedent in all the history of criminal jurisprudence, such a thing never happened, never could happen, and never will happen."

SAMUEL LAMBERT. An Interesting Sketch of a Deserving and Successful Member of the Race—Employee of the D. & C. Line. "Nothing is too high for man to reach, if he but climbs with care and confidence." This little saying is fully demonstrated by one of our race—Mr. Samuel Lambert, of whom we should feel very proud. Mr. Lambert was born in Virginia in 1876. When quite young he moved with his parents to Detroit, Mich., where a few years after he obtained employment, and has credibly filled the position of head waiter with the Detroit and Cleveland Steam Navigation Co. for nearly seventeen years. Mr. Lambert has had the added responsibility of bringing out every bont of the D. & C. line, and this season will take out the largest and finest equipped. side-wheel boot in the world, employing sixty waiters. She makes her first trip June 12, carrying six hundred members of the Board of Trustees of the University I am proud to say that outside being a capable and reliable man in his business, he has many other sterling qualities, one of which is his interest in the race. This he has proved by taking in experienced college students and giving them employment and proper instructions in service, that they might profitably put in their summer vacations, and thus enable them to finish their education.

June 12.—In order that Howard Drew, the spinner of Springfield High School, who equaled the world's 100-meter record Saturday, may sail with the Olympic team to Sweden, the high school pupils are raising funds to provide for Drew's family while he is absent. Enthusiastic meetings of the various classes and school organizations have been held to discuss ways and means. Leading business men have promised to assist. A. E.

Current Liteuature summarizes the tremendous progress the ceuthern states have made and are making since the emancipation and certain conclu- sions as to southern labor thet are ‘of the greatest interest to the readers as embodying a retrospect based upon facts and figures that admits of no eontroveray and a perspective that 1a always problematical and that seldom Justifies in results the forecasts of these who make them, “The best laid plans of men and mice aft gang glee.” Mr, G. Grosvenor Dawe, managing irectar of the Sonthern Commercial congress, for example, glories in the fact that the south has 969,000 square miles of land and water; 300,000,000 ‘acres of cultivatable land, half of which has not felt the touch of the plow, with vast mineral wealth aad in comparable clinasic conditions “trans- forming the vital fluid of rain through the chemistry of plant life Into gifgs that make glad the heart of man.” Nf ture has done her part to make the south a veritable “garden of the Lord.” Wf “only man 1s vile” there, we ask, whose is the fault? On the other hand, Mr. Philip K. Keller, in Uncle Remus’ Home Maga- zine, takes no stock in Dr. Washing- ton’s hopeful outlook, in the North American Review, of the negro's fu- ture in the south, as indicated in 1910, by his ownership of 900,000 farms, While Mr. Kellar shows that the south produces annually $6,010,000 worth of agricultural, forest and mineral prod- ucts, with $21,500,000 invested in man- ufactures, he is of the opinion that negro labor is still a necessity in southern fields, but it is not such a necessity ag {t was in the years fol- lowing the close of the war; and. the last 10 or 20 years show that white then not only can work in the southern fields, but that they do better work and get larger yields than under the ‘old systems of slave and negro contract labor.” But negro farm owners, by the same token, are getting better results under newer systems of cultivation, and negro laborers are receiving a wage a independent workmen, with right to save their earnings and buy Jandy that was not true of the slave ‘conditions, “The lazy man's country is where ‘the lazy man Is. The lazy man Is dis- appearing rapidly from the south, and with him is going the Idea that the south 1s a lazy land,” says Mr. Kellar. Negroes who are disposed to be lazy, to work half time, to work half their Jand, and to spend most they make from year to year on thelr backs and stomachs, therefore, take warning from Mr, Kellar’s view of the lazy man and lay country business, The white south {s wideawake; the black south cannot afford to sleep on its opportuni- ties, ‘The mines and factories of the south ‘are full of workmen from Europe who ‘save thelr money and buy land in small parcels. They are agriculturists by education and preference, and as soon as they make enough in mine and factory work to purchase and stock farms they abandon mine and factory work to others of their countrymen, of whom there is always an unfailing supply, The southern negroes should ‘study the labor and saving ways of ‘the foreigners among them, and profit by It. ‘The south ts no longer a lazy man's ‘country. Its agricultural, forest and mineral lands will go finally to those who are not lazy men. The Age de- sires to Impress these facts upon the minds of its southern readers now, im the accepted time, when land is cheap, wages reasonable and right to save money and buy 1s as much their @adlinds ne cP the Wilte wan PLANTS MUST BE PROPERLY FED. In the mattér of plant food it stands to reason that each species would have its own characteristic way of attack- ing soll ingredients, even though the ‘supply required to produce a crop may bo almost the same with a number of spectes. But their method or habit ‘of taking this food may be so differ. ‘ent as to make it urgently necessary to rotate in order to prevent robbing. Bach plant must have food adapted to itself, just the same as animals, and Mt fs not diMeult to imagine a ‘case ‘where soil is reasonably rich In plant food and yet a certain crop will ndt thrive on it to that extent that they ‘will produce profitable returns. ‘The diversification of crops: for the purpose of distributing labor through- out the year needs little if any com- ‘ment. However, it is doubtful if the Tall benefits of scientific diversification are attained in every Instance, We aye known men who would put in a large acreage of one variety of oats or ‘one variety of wheat, whereas labor could be used much more advantage- ously {f more than one variety were used, 80 the harvest time could be ox- tendéd ovor a longer period. One rea- gen why winter wheat is increasing in popularity is because It ripens early, thereby enabling the farmer with 1» given amount of help to harvest a larg- er crop during the year than would be the case if only spring grains were seeded. £ ENCLOSE THE PONDS. ‘Farmers should have one pond de ‘yoted entirely to the use of domestic @ucks and geese and running swine, to which they can have free and con- ‘stant access.

A YOUNS NEGRO ARTIST ee ae ee ene (oe: Senne Brush, the famous artist. He was eightsen years old, and since that is not an age of wide worldly expe rlevre, and he knew Mr. Bush only through his work, it took some cour. age ‘2 make the brief Journey from the corner to the studio door. Per- haps he would never have ventured if he had not been somewhat desperate. He meant to put squarely to Mr. Brush the great question that would seitle his life for him: “Do you think I can ever become an artist?” If Mr. Brush sald yes, then he would not change his fate with anybody in the world. If he said no, tt was good-by to dreams and a return to such occu- ations as are open to young colored men with a good high-school educa: tion. | Rickard Brown was his name and he came from Parkersburg, W. “Va. He had been born in Indiana, "but all his life had been spent among the hills of West Virginia, He had few know and love them. To get away cit from everybody end paint them had been his chief pleasure in life. He cared to paint nothing but landscape. Mis parents bad been ambitious for him and sent him to the West Vir- ginla mstitute, and there in the man. ual-training department he was taught house painting. He did well in his studies and well in his house painting, but i was in his work in water colors that he won most applause, Every body assured him he was remarkable Fortunately for Richard Brown, heav- en had put his head on his shoulders in @ very square and legal fashion. He was convinced that New York where great artists lived and great landscape paintings were collected, would settle his difficulties one way or the other. Counting his money, he found he could pay his fare to New York and have two dollars left: over. Hardly stopping to consider what might happen to him when that small capital was gone, he took the train Tho cost of living in New York would be more than in. Parkersburg, that he knew, but he was rather bewil. dered to find that to bire a room would alone require all his money. He [had not, indeed, considered the mat. ter very carefully, bat this was a shock, He had the choice of a bed to sleep in and no food, or of food and ne bed; naturally he bought something to eat. ; ‘The first night ho spent in thé trains of the elevated railroad. One can ride fa long way for five cents and he rode the longest way three times, carry- ing his little bag of clothing and his precious portfolio. At the end of each journey the guard would yell “HS, you there! Wake up! All out!” and the exhausted boy would strug. gle up frcm his cramped corner. ‘The next ten days are a’good deal of blank to him. He remembers that he ate buns and apples, as providing more food for a starving boy at a cost of five cents than anything else. He made a few pennies in one way or another, but he lived for the most part on his two dollars. Finally he got work house painting. He spent every evening in the Metropolitan mu- seum. The plctures he found there stirred him as nothing else had ever done. Before the landscapes of the French school, Rousseau and Corot especially, he fairly worshipped. Any self-conceit he may have had fell away completely before them. He knew he was only at a beginning with a long weary road to travel So this was the history of Richard Brown who was knocking at Mr. Brush’s studio door, that the cracle might speak and determine his future course. Mr. Brush, fortunately, 1s by no means so haughty @ personage as an art dealer's clerk, for he 1s much too busy to think about his fame in the world, So he invited his caller to ‘come in and sald he would be giad to look at his studies. Richard Brown took them out and held them up for All his little sketches he showed Mr, Brush. That gentleman looked at them with interest and asked a fox questions. Finally Richard Brown eame'to the fatal point and asked If Mr. Brush thought he could ever be an artist. To which the great man made prompt reply: “Why, my boy,” he sald heartily, “‘you are one now!” ‘Thus Richard Brown was uble to make his great decision. There was ‘period of house painting, buns and apples, for Mr. Brush ajd more than give advice. He made the boy his pupil and in the gocdnese of his kind heart tcok him to his summer place fn New Hamjshire, tat the bor /might lose no time. Here all last summer he painted the New England landscapes with the same ins'ght he had had in West Virginia, with his master near by to help and criticize. He progressed so rapidly that at the end of the summer a dealer offered to take some of his work and exhibit it in his rooms on Fifth avenue. Or- ders, too, had come in here and there. s0 that even financial success seems to have arrived. The boy’s friends had looked forward to four or five Years of study for bim, and it was a little disconcerting to find him so soon on the road to independence. Richard Brown has, however, no disposition to “overestimate his early success. The /same clear fame thst saved him be Re ha ahi ie eee eet STILL ORDERING. It was 1 a. m. when the rakish gen- {leman appeared on the curb, some- ‘what the worse for wear. “Cab, here, cab.” he called, “Yes, sir; yes, sir,” answered the anxious eabby, as he steped forward “Yes, sir; what street, sir?” “Well,” replied the rakish gentle. man, meditatively, as he balanced himself against the —_lamppost. “wh-what sthreets ‘ay you?"—House- keeper.

Among the new veils are shot chif- fon and thore of a self-color prettily edged with silk fringe. The scart shape Is the one that satisfies a great number of women because {t can be raped in just the manner that is pre- ferred, wherens the vell that radiates from a center bution offers less scope for different schemes of arrangement. Women who are going to make trips in open cars must be prepared for cold, rain and warmth, but most emphatte- ally for cold and rain, for even be- neath a warm sun rushing through the air is not a heating experience. Some very practical motor veils made of ofled silk are available, and the same material is being used for coats. It can be obtained in such bright colors as purple, green or canary yel- low and is delightfully gay in appear- ance. Children’s coats are made of it, ‘as well as those for grown-up folks. SALT ON ASPARAGUS. ‘The fallacy that salt is essential to the healthy growth of asparagus has long been understood as existing by those who understand the wants of the asparagus plant’s roots. For years there was on impression that aspara- gus beds should be salted with due regularity, as it was sald that the plant in its native state was indi- genous to salty swamps, and that when grown in other soils this salt should be artificlally supplied. This has been found to be not necessary, and now, when an experienced aspara- gus grower Is seen to salt bis beds in the spring or throughout the summer, it is for an entirely different purpose than to stimulate the growth of the plants, He does it to keep the weeds down, as salt kills weeds and does not injure asparagus. It has been claimed that there is no real fertility in salt and its use as a fert{lizer is a waste of material, time and energy. Another fallacy believed by some Is that a layer of salt, spread over the asparagus bed in dry weath- er, will bring the presence of moisture to the ground, . It does bring the pres. ence of moisture to one's attention, but there is a crust formed that tends to the loss of the very moisture which It is attempted to conserve. Instead of wasting salt on asparagus, use chemleal fertilizers that are known to be food for the plant's roots and waste no time or money on salt. WHITEWASH ON THE FARM. ‘Whitewashing the henhouses, coops, brooders and ferices should be done about twice a year in the summer sea- son. Whitewash Is recognized as a protector against vermin and also lends a neat and clean appearance to the farm when abundantly used. It is qu=kly put on with a brush or broom and Insts a long time, even during an exceptionally wet season. If applied ith a sprayer, the whitewash should first be strained to prevent clogging, ehien nearly invariably occurs. How- ever, if the whitewash Is strained throueh two thicknesses of cheese cloth and a good sprayer ts used there ig not much trouble. The following recipe for whitewash can be used to advantage: Slake in boiling water one-halt bushel of lime, Keeping It just fairly covered with water during the process. Strain It to remove the sediment that will fall to the bottom and add to it a peck of galt that has been dissolved in warm water, three pounds of ground rice, boiled in water to attain paste, one- half pound of powdered Spanish whit- ing and one pound of clear glue, dis- solved In warm water. Mix thorough- Iy the different ingredients and let the mixture stand for several days. It should be hot when applied. This ts & preparation that will Icet_ a long time and will stand better and will not wash off so readily as whitewash made from ordinary lime and water. gp ‘TAKING TO THE TALL TIMBERS. “Sisters and brethren,” exhorted Uncle Abraham, a recent promotion from the plow to the pulpit, “on de ‘one side er dis here meetin’ house is a road leading to destruction; on de udder is a road gwine to damna- tion. Which you gwine pursoo? Dar ig de internal question: Which ts you ‘gwino fursoo?” “Law, Brer Aberham,” spoke Sister Eliza from the back pew. “I speck I'm er gwine home throo de woods!” NEGRO LEADERS MJST BE TRAINED FOR THENEGROPECPLE To our knowledge, Dr. Newell Dwight Hillis, pastor ef Plymouth church, Brooklyn, N. Y., has never en- gaged In any work—religious, educa- tonal, or other kind—bringing him in prolonged, intimate contact with the masses of our black Americans, yet he can clearly see at his distance that the negroes of this country need negro leadership, of the right sort, of course. He asserts that “what a white man can never do, the colored man will easily accomplish for his people.” Negro leaders, in daily contact with thelr people, are perennial sources of insplratton to them. With them as liv- ing examples, the young people feel that there are heights of recognized ability and greatness to which they may aspire. Failure to place, wherever possible, a qualified black man at the ‘head of certain affairs relating to our people, is nothing more nor less than choking off the Inclination of the young to become fitted for the highest places that have been opened up in ‘thelr race life. To take down any eminent negro from a position of re- sponsibility and honor and not seck ‘out and place therein another negro ‘amply qualified to assume the office is a heartless blow and a crushing dis- couragement to the aspiring young men of the race. It must not, on this account, be as- sumed that we do not desire the help and co-operation of our Caucasian ‘well-wishers along all lines calculated to promote raclal development, We have shown in the past that we are grateful for such unselfish interest. But as we gather strength, we want to walk alone, As we become of aze in our race life, we want the consider- ation given us that is accorded every ‘sane and otherwise competent male ee by the civil laws on reaching his majority—a man's right to com- ‘mand his own affairs and be of the largest possible service to his fellow beings without a prersature verdict being passed as to whether or not he can succeed. We are willing to take the chances on going up or down when accorded these inallenable rights. Dr. Hillis’ frank statement of a com- pelling truth prompts a hearty Amen fn the hearts of the proud, devoted race constructionists among the black people, Its force and recognition should be fearlessly urged by every negro worthy the sacred trust of race leadersbip.—Southern Life Magazine. THE RUNAWAY. ‘The rector was sitting In his study hard at work on the following Sun- day's sermon when a visitor was an- nounced. She was a hard, muscular looking woman, and when the minister set a chair for her she opened fire some- what brusquely: “You are Mr, Jenkins, ain't you?” “1 am,” replied the good man. “Well, maybe you'll remember o° marryin’ a couple o' strangers at your church a month ago?” ‘What were the names?” asked the clergyman. “Peter Simpson and Eliza Brown,” replied the woman, “and I'm Eliza.” “Are you, indeed?” said the minis- ter. “I thought 1 remembered seeing your face before, but—" “Yes,” interrupted the visitor. “I'm her, all right, an’ I thought how 1 ought to drop in and tell you that Pe- ter escaped.” EQUALS OLD WOMAN IN SHOE. It falls to the lot of but few people in these days of much agitation about race suicide to have so many near relatives that they can not be count- ed, Such a rerson, however, is Mrs Rhoda J. Swift of Cedarville, who. somewhat Ilke the old woman who lived in a shoe, had so many rela- tives she doosn’'t know what to do. She took a pencil and paper and tried to figure out her relationships. She got up to 270 and then found she had forgotten some. Again she went to the task, and this time figured up about 280, but was not satisfied that she had them all. Another revision brings the figures up to 286. Mrs. Swift still believes that she has a few more. é According to her figures, Mrs. Swift fs aunt to 139, great-aunt to'79, great- greataunt to 52, grandmother to 6, sister to 4, mother to three and sister- inlaw to 2.

Of Interest to Our Women MASSAGE. Above the horizon of hope a new beauty cult Is sending its first warm rays to cheer eager seekers on their long and often wearlsomé way. Al- ready the great army of those who ‘wage constant war against the in- ronds of time and tide have taken fresh heart to continue their search for the Fountain of Youth. Thelr hope lies in the Cult of Beau- tiful Hands The Inspiration and creator of this cult, founded upon the scientific prin- ciple of massage, desires It to become 4@ part of the daily beauty bath of ev- ery well groomed woman. He expects it to become universal wherever mas- suge {8 an integral, part of beauty treatment. ‘That his belief fs. well founded has been demonstrated by the Success with which hand massage has been atended, and the obvious neces- sity for keeping the hands as beautl- ful as the face, Yet how many women overlook this all important chapter in the preser- vation of youth! Beauty specialists use the hands as an index to age. Those who have made a study of hands can tell within three years the age of any woman, no | matter how carefully her face, neck and hair have been preserved. ‘This is because those seekers after beauty have bathed In the Fountain of Youth —which is only another name for care- a ervortpe Sais Pree es take their hands along with them. | Hand massage 1s a quick and certain way to remedy the delay, to give the hands the fresh, plump, moist, supple ‘appearance of youth by improving both the health and the texture of the skin, Hand massage requires a jar of a reliable massage cream (not disap- pearing); certain scfentifle movenients designed to fill out hollows, reduce en- eee joints and otherwise improve the contour of the hand; a bottle of ‘a good astringent to remove the cream without destroying its effects, and a soft nen eloth, "Probably the most devoted follower of the new cult will be the woman whose hands have lost their plump- ness. Her skin ts a bit drawn and her knuckles are beginning to be un- pleasantly promineit, In such hands the veins and cords are likely to raise thomselves. visibly, further accentuat- ing the dry, sallow surface of the skin. Treatment in this case consists of a generous application of massage cream and a series of movenments calculated to manipulate the muscles of the hands so that they may be fully developed, firm and strong. At the same time the skin absorbs through its pores, opened to receive the cream, enough nourishment to sup- ply any ‘wasted portions beneath, [which in turn communicates this food to the muscles and all parts of the hand, Manipulation brings the blood to the surface of the hand to take up this lubricant and distribute it to ev- ery station where it is needed and to burn up waste Ussues. Quickened circulation means tha restoration of color and molsture to the hands, and this in turn means the youthful ap- pearance so dear to every woman, Naturally all frritation and rongh- ness disappears after such vigorous treatment. The hollow places are giv- en special attention, one of the best movements for Alling out belng a ro- tary motion with the tips of the fin- gers and a deep pressure or kneading of muscles, Do-not allow the skin to become dry, or trritation and smarting will result. As soon as the cream is taken up, apply more, continuing the treatment for some time. It Is better to use a half dozen rotations or pressures in one place, then pro ceed to another hollow, and then re- turn to the original place. This order does not subject any part of the hand to severe treatment Be careful that the entire hand is. manipulated, the Joints worked and the fingers moved vigorously, as an even distribution of nourishment Is neces sary. When every part of the hand has been covered remove any remaining portions of the cream by applying a good astringent. Dip a small sponge in the astringent and stroke it gently over the hands. Gratifying results will be obtained by a single massage treatment Twice a week is the least number of treat- ments possible to obtain good results. ‘Those with very thin or rey hands should begin with three treat- ments a week, and ar the hollows be- gin to AM gradually reduce the num- ber.

In the morning trim away with a sharp knife the rusty under side and eages, paring the fat. carefully. Wipe dry and cover the under side with a thick paste of hot water and flour. Lay it upside down in the dripping pan with enough warm water and vinegar to keep it from burning—say enough to stand an inch deep all around the ham. There should be a tablespoon- ful of vinegar to each quart of warm water. Fit a cover closely over the pan to keep in the steam and bake twenty-flve minutes to the pound. Baste several times to keep the crust from scaling off. When the ham Is done, take off the crust and peel away the skin. Have ready the beaten yolk of an egg and plenty of fine crumbs. Wash the hot ham with the yolk and strew thickly with crumbs. The ooz- ing fat will be absorbed by the crumbs and season them well. Set aside until cold, then stick cloves In the top, put a frill of fringed paper about the knuckle, and garnish with red beets and parsley. DANGER IN WATERCRESS. ‘The tempting bunches of fresh green watercress that are now found i, market are never more welcome than at this season, but great care should be taken to wash them thor- oughly; the brook whence they came may have been infested with typhold germs, says a writer. Experts tell us that much typhoid fever comes from vegetables that have been improperly fertilized or from plants watered by polluted streams. Wherever possible vegetables should be boiled, but in the case of lettuce or watercress this Is usually impossible. The ‘only thing one can do if one does not want to give up eating them Is to wash them thoroughly in several waters, One can even make the first water a soapy one without leaving any disagreeable taste.
