Watson said in a recent issue of a People's Par- ty paper: "I believe in the Jefferson creed with all my heart and think that all the aims of good government can be covered by that one sentence, "equal and exact justice to all men." "To the rich and the poor; to the farmer and merchant; to the banker and the miner; to the scholar and the ditcher. And to emphasize here what I have been so misrepresented and blamed for saying before, that this republic will never reach its true grandeur as long as a dead line is drawn between one section and another, one color and another. "I yield to no man in my pride of race. I believe the Anglo-Saxon is stronger in the glorious strength of conception and achievement than any race of created man; but from my very pride of race, springs my intense scorn of that phantasm manufactured by the political bosses and called "Negro domination." "Socially I want no mixing of races. It is best that both should preserve the race itigrity by staying apart. But when it comes to matters of law and justice, I despise the Anglo-Saxon who is such an infernal coward as to deny legal rights to any man on account of his color, for fear of 'Negro domination.' "Dominate what? Dominate' how? 'Dominate whom?' "It takes intellect to dominate. Haven't we got it?" "It takes majorities to dominate. Haven't we got them?" "It takes wealth to dominate. Haven't we got it?" "It takes social, financial, legislative, military, naval, ecclesiastical establishments to dominate. Haven't we got them. For a thousand years the whites the Anglo-Saxon, have had all these advantages.

While West Florida goes crazy over primary systems and jim crow street cars, a veritable body of death, and murderers of the most dangerous sort. is grafting itself upon the populace, and now the crimes committed in this section of the state are more curdling than the bloody stories told in Nick Carter or the Saturday Blade. Had our last legislature which devoted so much of its energy and time to the jim crow law, placed upon the statutes one law which would have stopped any one of the recent bloody crimes laying at our door, or had it in any way divinced some plan which would even aid in the apprehension of the perpetrators it would have done an outraged populace more material good than all the jim crow ordinances or bills which could be passed between this writing and the general judgment. The doctrine of retribution, which is as old as Eden's garden, has asserted itself in West Florida and is demanding from the righteous (?) Anglo-Saxons of this locality, his share of the blood money which the white man and his ancestors have taken from the less fortunate people of the community. The murder of the Christmas family, the murder of the white preacher, his wife and seven children in Santa Rosa county, the killing of the white man in Milton, the murder of Travis Johnson and others, are staring the authorities of law and the department of justice in the face. Nobody has even been indicted for these atrocities either one of which would be a blot on any civilization. Curious it is to note that these crimes were all committed by white men, at least nobody questions the supposition that white men committed them. It cannot be said that the Negro is ```markdown ``` the leading criminal spirit in West Florida. Within the past year 25 white people have been murdered in West Florida, murdered by people of their own race, and yet nobody has been convicted. It is a settled fact, far beyond dispute that the courts in this section of this country have no jurisdiction over cases where capital punishment must be administered. These are facts which the white men refuse to face. The courts call on, and call off, exhonorating first this criminal and then the other, whilst justice looks on the crying shame—Florida Sentinel.

He leaves a wife and 5 children to mourn his death. A large concourse of friends and relatives of the family came over from Denver to attend the funeral Sunday conducted by Rev. Tolson. NEGRO'S PLAN "If we can develop in the average colored citizen those qualities of character, of courage, of truthfulness, of sense of obligation, of willingness to work, of desire to behave decently to those -around about you, you have taken the longest and most effective step toward securing for the people of your own race their own self-respect, and the respect of others, which will follow inevitably in the training of that self-respect. "It is often said that the true place for the Negro is industrial work. It is. That is the true place for the average Negro and it is the true place for the average man, and we will not get our civilization upon a proper basis until we root out of the mind of the average girl of whatever color, the belief that to become a poor clerk is better than being a first-class hand worker, a first-class mechanic or a first-class agricultural laborer. The Moon. NEGRO TROOPS Manila, July 26.—Advice received here from the Island of Leyte say that a band of 360 Pulajanes yesterday attacked a column of constabulary and regulars commanded by Captain George H. McMaster, of the Twenty-fourth Infantry, one of the Negro regiments. The engagements, which took place near Baneun, resulted in the Pulajanes being repulsed with the loss of 150 men killed and wounded. One constabulary sergeant was wounded. The natives fled. The fight took place in thick underwood and lasted thirty-minutes. The Pulajanes, armed with guns and bolos, charged the American column three times. The latter was composed of fifty constabulary, commanded by Captain Neville, and twenty-six Negro soldiers of the Twenty-fourth Infantry. NOT DISCOURAGED. At the Young Peoples Christian Endeavor congress held in Washington, D. C., recently Bishop Gaines of Atlanta spoke as follows: "We have had to submit to the awful humiliation arising from separate car laws on both railroads and trolley lines, but we must not be discouraged. The mob laws, the hangings and the burning at the stake of Negroes in many Southern states, though most terrible to reflect upon, must not darken our minds so that we despair. "I have said we have made great progress, though we still have a giant burden of ignorance and lawlessness to carry and to endeavor to destroy as we move upward." "Yet I find I can thank God that though we have so many enemies we are not without friends. I must say that we could not stay in this country if it were not for our white friends and their strength of character." Bishop Gaines then specifically named as avowed enemies of the Negro Senator Tillman of South Carolina, Governor Vardaman of Mississippi. Governor Jefferson Davis of Arkansas, Thomas Dixon of New York and John Temple Graves of Georgia. Secretary Bonaparts spoke on "The Future of the Negro Race in America." He said that the part it would play in civilization was a question no less difficult than interesting. Secretary Bonaparte declared that the Negro race was the only one which has ever been able to live with white people. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. The following dispatch from New Orleans tells this sad story. "The body of an unknown Negro was found swinging to a tree on the road near Junction City. The Negro accused of attempted assault on a white girl, was on the way to the jail at Homer, when a mob took him from the officers. It is said the mob made a mistake in identity and hanged the wrong Negro." Colored people have been misrepresented, but it is now being admitted that they have shown no disposition to over-ride the laws that white legislators enact for their discomfort. They stood two hundred and fifty one years of oppression and misrepresentation, but they are yet smiling and laboring for the betterment of them selves and the state governments of which they are a part. A young colored woman up in New Jersey recently committed suicide, but the act was deferred until she had worked for and bought herself a $100 lavender dress. And when this was secure life's aim and ambition were attained and there was nothing more to do but to shuffle off this mortal coil. There are hosts of other poverty stricken men and women pursuing the same suicidal policy in the mad effort to "shine" with those means are unlimited. Little Rock, Ark., Attorney General R. L. Rogers threw a bomb into the camp of the State Democracy with an opinion that the poll tax amendment to the state constitution was void because it had not been legally adopted. This amendment was declared adopted ten years ago. It provided that every voter must pay a tax of $1 before being entitled to vote. It virtually disfranchised 20,000 Negroes in the black belt. Democratic leaders said the opinion would increase the Republican vote in the September election by 20,000. Lexington, Ky., July 28.—Judge Parker, in a lengthy opinion handed down Thursday overruled the motion for a new trial in the $10, NO. 46 000 damage suit brought by lawyer J. Alexander Chiles against the Chesapeake & Ohio Railway Company. Attorney Chiles, it will be recalled, while en route from Washington, D. C., to Lexington was at Ashland, Ky., asked to transfer to a "Jim Crow" car. He claimed he was an interstate passenger and was not liable to the provisions of the separate law. He subsequently brought suit for $10,000 damages and the trial of the case resulted in a verdict for the defendant company. Chiles later filed a motion for a new trial which was overruled, but an appeal to the Court of Appeals was granted. Montgomery, Ala., July 17.—At Carlowville, Dallas county, this afternoon, Joe Matthews, a young white man, was shot to death by Phillip Washington, colored, Matthews and his brother, Sam, went to the home of the colored man for some purpose not ascertained. As they approached the house the colored man appeared in the door with a shot gun and fired, the load tearing away part of Joe Matthew's head. Washington made his escape. Every man's home is his castle and this colored man evidently knew it. That these white men went there for no good purpose is evident. Colored men are learning white folk's sense. Washington did just as a white man would have done and these two would-be law breakers have themselves to blame for their undoing. Had they followed Washington's example and stayed at home, the unfortunate tragedy would not have taken place. PRO-ZULU Johannesburg, July 28.—Despite the government's restrictions, the contents of Mr. Keir Hardie's extraordinary Zulu letter, in which he said that he hoped the time would come when the blacks would be able to defend themselves as against the whites, are known to hundreds of educated Kaffirs, and are being rapidly disseminated throughout the Transvaal. The result is not only to encourage the rebels in the field, but to inflame the spirit of discontent throughout the Rand. The news of the murder and mutilation of Mr. Veal by Mesini's men has exasperated the white population of Johnnesburg almost beyond endurance. The women residing in the suburbs are devoting the afternoons to revolver practice. One report has it that a combination of black and yellow is forming, the Chinese who have been working in the mines and the native Zulus.

The Arabian declares: "Words are women; deeds are men." The Scotch say: "Honest men marry soon, wise men never." In Fife they say: "The next best thing to no wife is a good wife." The French adage: "A man of straw is worth a woman of gold." The Persian sage says that a woman's wisdom is under her heel. The Persian asserts that women and dragons are best out of the world. The German affirms that every daughter of Eve would rather be beautiful than good. The German: "There are only two good women in the world—one dead and the other can't be found." An old English saying: "If a man lose a woman and a farthing he will be sorry he lost the farthing." The Spanish rhyme has it: "Were a woman as little as she is good, a peapod would make her a gown and a hood." The Corsican says: "Just as a good and a bad horse both need the spur, a good and a bad woman both need the stick." The Hindoo: "A man is not obeyed by his wife in his own house, nor does she consider him her husband unless he beats her." Another Hindoo proverb says: "Drive out a woman's nature with a pitchfork and it will return again and again." TO THE POINT. Money may be acquired by accident --manners never. The worst thing about eating is that it takes away one's appetite. For multitudes of young people there is no home, only a place to sleep in. The simplicity of those who advocate it is, perhaps, the most remarkable thing about the simple life. The dark seriousness of death is a direly effective background for the harlequinade of a wasted existence. The simple life does not need lentil or cellular clothing; it needs those rarer things, gratitude and humility. We often delude ourselves with the idea that we are virtuous, when in reality we are simply giving our accustomed follies a rest. If you wish for truth, you must give freedom; there must be neither exaction nor tyranny. It is human to desire liberty, and the yoked human creature does not express his genuine opinions. Coincidences in Names. At Lowestoft, England, a Mr. Warmer and Miss Freezer were united in marriage. At Bristol a Mr. Blizzard and Miss Gale were united in matrimony. Some years ago the pastor of a London church was named Pigg, and two of his deacons were Messrs. Hogg and Bacon. Blessing of Sound Sleep The best rest comes from good, sound sleep. Of two men or women otherwise equal the one who sleeps the more satisfactorily will be the more healthful, moral and efficient. Sleep will do much to cure irritability of temper, peevishness and unhappiness.

WRIT IS REFUSED JUDGE LINDSEY CAN PROCEED IN FRANCHISE SUITS JUSTICE BAILEY'S DECISION One of the Judges in Vacation May Not Issue Writ of Prohibition—Supersedeas Would Have Same Effect and Is Therefore Denied. Denver.—Justice George W. Bailey of the Supreme Court, sitting in chambers yesterday, refused to grant the writ of supersedeas asked for by the Denver City Tramway Company and the Denver Gas and Electric Company, restraining Judge B. B. Lindsey from proceeding with the trial of the franchise election cases. In announcing his decision, Judge Bailey said: "Under the practice of this court, one of the judges in vacation may not issue a writ of prohibition nor an order to show cause why such writ would not be issued. The effect of this application is for a prohibitive order. "While it may be called by another name, it has the same result and legal effect. What I cannot do directly, I may not do indirectly. While stay orders, injunctive in their nature have sometimes been issued, I know of no instance in which this has been done by a judge in vacation, except to preserve the status of property or property rights. I found no record of such an order having been made by a judge in vacation to prevent an investigation by trial. If the County Court is without jurisdiction to try the cause respondents' rights may be saved by appeal or writ of error after final decree. "It was said in the Wheeler case that one of the attributes of this court is, if necessary, to invent new writs or proceedings in order, suitably, to exercise the jurisdiction conferred by the constitution; but this inventive power may not be exercised by one of the judges. "The application will be denied." COLORADO ASSESSORS. Annual Meeting In Denver Asks for State Commission. Denver.—Fifty-three of the fifty-nine county assessors of the state met Tuesday in the chamber of the House of Representatives at the capitol. Their assessment rolls show that there is this year an increase in valuation of property throughout the state of between $4,000,000 and $5,000,000 over last year. This was the annual meeting provided for by statute. The purpose of the convention is to give the assessors an opportunity to compare valuations and to secure, as nearly as possible, uniform assessments. At the close of the session the convention adjourned, subject to the call of the chairman, Assessor C. N. Crowder of Teller county. Most of the day was spent in the reading by the assessors of their abstracts. The report of the committee of assessors submitted some time ago was adopted as a whole. The committee is composed of Assessors C. N. Crowder, C. P. Link and A. E. Howe. It is recommended in the report, as adopted, that a tax commission be created, the commission to have full authority to equalize the assessed values of all property in the various counties of the state. The law requires that all property shall be assessed at its full cash value, but it has been the custom of the State Board of Equalization and county assessors to assess at from twenty to fifty per cent. of the actual value of property so assessed. It is recommended "that the revenue law be so amended as to require all property owners to list their property, whether real or personal, at the actual value of the same, also that they be required to swear or affirm that they are giving the actual market value of their property. They require all the county assessors, as well as the State Board of Equalization, to take one-third of that valuation as their basis for assessment. In case any owner or agent should wilfully or maliciously list property less than its actual cash value, then the State Board of Equalization, or county assessor, shall be required to place its full cash value upon the same as the assessment, taking away the power of the Board of County Commissioners to make any abatements or rebates of taxes whatsoever, to any such person swearing falsely, allowing the owner or the agent to have recourse to the courts only." IN DENVER COUNTY JAIL. Prominent Men Behind Bars for Con- tempt of Court. Denver.—Following the decision of Justice Bailey refusing a writ of supersedeas in the franchise election cases, Wednesday morning, Judge Lindsey of the County Court sent the following men to jail in default of payment of fines imposed for contempt of court in refusing to testify: Henry L. Doherty, president Denver Gas and Electric Company, engineer of the McMillan syndicate; Attorney F. A. Williams, former chairman Republican county central committee; George N. Ordway, president elections commission; J. Cook, Jr., well known real estate dealer. At the opening of the court George N. Ordway, president of the election commission, was summoned and refused to be sworn and was fined $500 and sentenced to jail. Henry L. Doherty, Fred A. Williams and J. Crook, Jr., were also given opportunities to be sworn, but refused, and each was sentenced to pay a $500 fine. Watchers Laille and Griffin also were fined $25 and costs each for contempt. Messrs. Doherty, Williams, Ordway and Cook were taken to jail and locked up. The watchers paid their fines. Sheriff Nisbet reported that he had the ballot boxes from the Speer precinct in his possession. It had not been found necessary to summon a posse to secure them. DAZED WITH PAIN. The Sufferings of a Citizen of Olympia, Wash. L. S. Gorham, of 515 East 4th St., Olympia, Wash., says: "Six years ago I got wet and took cold, and was soon flat in bed, suffering tortures with my back. Every movement caused an agonizing pain, and the persistency of it exhausted me, so that for a time I was dazed and stupid. On the advice of a friend I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, and soon no- hit in bed, suffering tortures with my back. Every movement caused an agonizing pain, and the persistence of it ex hausted me, so that for a time I was dazed and stupid. On the advice of a friend I began using Doan's Kidney Pills, and soon noticed a change for the better. The kidney secretions had been disordered and irregular, and contained a heavy sediment, but in a week's time the urine was clear and natural again and the passages regular. Gradually the aching and soreness left my back and then the lameness. I used six boxes to make sure of a cure, and the trouble has never returned." Sold by all dealers. 50 cents a box.

Few persons know how to rest. Rushing for trains and boats isn't resting. Being elbowed by a vulgar mob isn't resting. Neither is staying home and being annoyed by endless details. Overdressing, overeating and too much excitement are not restful. Over Sunday rest is best accomplished by a trip to some restful place. The idea is to discover what best agrees with one and then to follow it as well as possible. PHYSICIAN SAYS Children Thrive on Grape Nuts and Cream. A Mass. physician has found a cure for constipation in children—citing fifteen cases—by feeding them Grape-Nuts. "Some time ago," he writes, "I became interested in your food, Grape-Nuts, as a cure for constipation in children. Having tried it in my own family, I have advised it in fifteen cases in which all suffered with constipation more or less severe. The result has been absolute relief in all. "I write this that other children may be benefited." How much better it is thus to bring about a healthy action in the bowels of growing children by natural means, than to feed them with improper food, requiring some kind of cathartic at intervals to overcome constipation. Grape-Nuts gives energy to the entire nervous system including the nerves that cause the natural contraction and relaxation of the bowel muscles, that propel the food mass along. It is predigested also, and the blood easily absorbs the food as it goes through the body, storing up vitality and force for the functions of all the organs. Children especially, should get the right start as to habits of living. They should grow into bright, strong, cheerful men and women. Grape-Nuts solve the question of the start; a wholesome appetite will do the rest. Children's teeth are benefited by chewing Grape-Nuts, also. Your dentist will tell you that a certain amount of exercise in chewing firm food, is necessary to grow strong, beautiful teeth. Teeth need exercise just the same as muscles, if they are to grow strong and firm as nature intended. Grape-Nuts gives the exercise and also gives material from which good teeth are made.

ITS MERIT IS PROVED A Prominent Cincinnati Woman Tells How Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Completely Cured Her. The great good Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is doing among the women of America is attracting the attention of many of our leading scientists, and thinking people generally. Mrs. Sara Wilson The following letter is only one of many thousands which are on file in the Pinkham office, and go to prove beyond question that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound must be a remedy of great merit, otherwise it could not produce such marvelous results among sick and ailing women. Dear Mrs. Pinkham: "About nine months ago I was a great sufferer with female trouble, which caused me severe pain, extreme nervousness and frenziedness, which required a doctor failed to relieve me. I tried Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and within a short time felt better, and after taking five bottles of it I was entirely cured. I therefore heartily recommend your Compound as a splendid female tonic. It makes the monthly periods regular and without pain; and what a blessing it is to find such a remedy after so many years, you can recommend it to all suffering women."—Mrs. Sara Wilson, 31 East 3d Street, Cincinnati, Ohio.

Have you ever thought of how much it would mean to yourself and to others if you would just resolve to do your duty. Duty is the debt you owe for citizenship, protection and privilege; if you want these to be kept free and untrammeled then we ought to do our duty. Duty is a graver term than obligation and should receive the more allegiance. The progressive, clear-sighted colored citizens of the city and county of Denver and Colorado have important duties to perform, not next fall only, but now at the primaries and precinct caucuses. The selection of officers and the proper delegates to the county and state convention, determines the kind of nominees we may expect on the ticket. The time to think of the harvest is after you have cleared the ground, broken the soil and planted the seed. If you don't do your duty before the harvest, there will be no harvest. This law is as true in politics as it is in nature. We admit we can not do much alone. There must be numbers acting together to secure results. To do your duty then is to convince others of the justice of your position and the necessity of making their service and vote count for the party and the race. Every additional voter that you interest and secure to co-operate for the cause you help forward the movement for justice to the Negro just so much. There are three places where your full duty ought to be done, i.e., the primaries, the convention and the polls, and the one grand insignia of your severignty at these crucial stages of citizenship is the ballot. The citizens with their ballots have built up this city and state just as carpenters and masons have built it with their tools, and it remains for them to keep it in a healthy condition by their continued interest in the state's welfare. This interest is determined by the way and manner in which you do your duty. STATE'S ANNIVERSARY. Last Sunday the subject for attention at the Alliance was the thirtieth anniversary of the admission of Colorado into the Union. Miss Florence Whitsell gave a brief sketch of Helen Hunt Jackson and her "Ramona." Thos. J. Riley, our old veteran, spoke of conditions in Colorado in 1876, the year of admission, and Rev. Ford presented the probable condition in 1936, thirty years from now. Does it not seem strange that the Negro does not cultivate the vision of a prophet or the judgment of a seer to discern the expansion and growth that is certain to follow in the wake of intelligent efforts and make provisions for it. The ground where the hall in which he was speaking was overgrown with weeds and inhabited with jack rabbits, less than thirty years ago. Property was cheap then and lots and houses could be purchased for an insignificant sum. Wages were excellent and times good. Yet so few colored people bought property and the few that did buy it did not hold it. The lack of down-town property is now seriously felt. If a colored man desires to rent a store or office in the business district one of two things inevitably result; either colored people are refused outright or else they are charged more rent than others, which in itself is an insult. There is no remedy, no redress. You must either pay up or shut up. Will the Negro re-enact this blunder in 1936? That depends upon how he acts now. Will he buy a home now? Will he buy some lots? Anywhere is better than none at all. Will he buy some down-town property. There ought to be one or two more hall sites purchased before property begins to soar. There ought to be some business property obtained before it gets out of reach. There is the citizen's investment Company, the Loan Society and other organizations that were organized for that purpose. Wake up, men, and get some land, if you want to stay here unmolested. VARDAMAN, THE DON QUIXOTE OF YAZOO. Governor Vardaman of Mississippi wants to be United States senator, in order that he may appear in the limelight as the prize fool of his section. Mississippi is responsible for jaundice, chills and fever, yellow jack and a great many other pestilential plagues, but the prince of virulent and mortiferous contagion is this filth peddler Vardaman. He is ready to out-Dixson Dixson and beat One-Eyed Tilman at his own pitchfork exercise. Well, we would like to see Vardaman given a sentence of six years at Washington in the White house. He would be compelled to jostle with colored men in public places in Washington, D. C.; that would probably knock some gumption and sense into his darn fool pate, or spill what little pus accretions he mistakes for gray matter that is affecting his vision. Vardaman's platform and mission to his supporters is, to stop educating pickanannies, to establish jim crowism in the city of Washington, and to repeal the thirteenth and fifteenth amendments. He declares that he would rather be the instrument in accomplishing these three things than to wield the sceptre of King Edward over the British empire. Perhaps this brutish vampire ought to migrate from the swamps of Mississippi. He is impregnated with the miasma of the stagnation of his section. A residence higher up might do him good. Contact with people of sense and breadth might clarify his vision., but if not it would at least have the effect to show how immune some of these southern red-necks are to decency and horse sense. Te Negro is out and gone on the highway to education and manhood. You are too late, Vardaman, to stop him now. We have not an ounce of objection to you making all kinds of fools of yourself in the lime--light. We would like to see you making an exhibition of your darn fool doctrine at the headquarters of the nation. It would show that education had not penetrated Mississippi and that there is much work for the fool-killer to do. TRY IT IN DENVER. Down in Arkansas they have introduced hugging societies to swell the church treasury, and an Arkansas gives the following scale of prices: Girls under sixteen, 15 cents for a short squeeze; from sixteen to twenty, 50 cents. Schoolma'ams, 40 cents. Another man's wife $1.00. Widows, according to looks, from 10 cents to $3.00. Old maids, 3 cents or two for a nickel, and not any limit of time. Preachers are not charged. Editors pay in advance, but are not allowed to participate until everybody else is through, and even then they are not allowed to squeeze anybody but old maids and schoolma'ams.—Ex.

They run from the sublime to the ridiculous—from the suppression of the octopus to the prevention of barber's itch—from the regulation of the trusts to the whipping post for the wife beater. They may all be meritorious in their place, but the place of many of these bills is not in congress. During my time, and I have lived beyond the three score years that are ordinarily allotted to man, I have noticed that the hardest criticism has been against the most efficient and worthy public servants, who in carrying out the will of the people, have had the courage of their conviction and the ability to lead the people in writing the policies of the majority upon the statute book. Greater than laws, greater than written constitutions, is an intelligent and righteous public sentiment. And as we neglect our duties to the republic we pay the penalties as individual citizens. A New Era in the Art of Healing By GUSTAVUS M. BLECH. The battle cry of the humane surgeon is: non nocere, or, in plain English: do no harm! The surgeon's knife, which has proved a blessing to suffering humanity, and which in many instances is the life, is not with modern methods take bold operatient from the oive of the outco patients consent in electric treatiances the pati to obtain relief life, is not without danger and risks. While modern methods of operating enable a well to take bold operations without having to fear patient from the operation itself, the fact remains of the outcome, is in itself an undesirable patients consent as readily to an operation as an electric treatment, or a bottle of medicine stances the patient submits to the knife eith to obtain relief from less risky methods or life, is not without danger and risks. While it must be admitted that modern methods of operating enable a well trained surgeon to undertake bold operations without having to fear serious injury to the patient from the operation itself, the fact remains that the knife, irrespective of the outcome, is in itself an undesirable therapeutic agent. Few patients consent as readily to an operation as they do to take a bath, an electric treatment, or a bottle of medicine. In the majority of instances the patient submits to the knife either because he has failed to obtain relief from less risky methods or because there exists an urgent demand to save life. For the last 50 years internal medicine and surgery have tried to encroach on each other's territory. Surgery, the younger of the two sciences, has become so gigantic in its forward strides that it looked for a time as if but little would be left for physicians to do. It is, indeed, refreshing to note that neither the classic science of medicine nor the younger and bolder science of surgery has lost any prestige from this friendly rivalry. Supporting each other, the combined science and art of medical practice has become a great and noble one, fully abreast of the times, enlightened, rational, broad minded, liberal and free from the mystic and the occult. It has rejected all sorts of sham and pretense, all forms of quackery and fanaticism. Medicine, though in many respects a philosophic science, has, after all, but one utilitarian motive—viz.: the relief of physical and psychic suffering. Of the value of prevention of disease, of the great problems of sanitation it has solved and tried to solve with a view of keeping the nations in good health, it is impossible even to form an approximate estimate. But the crowning glory of medicine is found in the fact that the men, whose specialty it is to relieve suffering with knife in hand, are the ones who constantly search for knifeless methods to obtain the same results. The Roentgen or so-called X-ray is the first discovery which has proved useful in certain forms of cancer (epithelioma, sarcoma), and the surgeons were glad to lay aside the knife and make use of this agent. Now a number of inflammatory diseases are treated successfully without operation, the surgeons relying on physiological methods. Prof. August Bier, of Bonn, Germany, has shown that if we succeed in introducing the right kind of blood by purely mechanical means into a diseased organ, many infectious and inflammatory diseases will get well without the knife. And they do! This only is the beginning of the era of knifeless surgery. The end is not yet. By HON, JOSEPH G. CANNON, Speaker of National House of Representatives. In my judgment the greatest danger public comes from the citizen who collects to participate in governing the national affairs, and seeks protection or ennment to which he does not control to his ability or means. The government of the United States—remains with the United States—is not the weakening of the over the failure of the sovereign states to jurisdiction touching all matters not granted. This danger does not come from the element to grasp power not conferred by the desire of citizens of the respective national government the responsibility and duty. Singly so easy to devote our time to our duty to the party primary, and later on the burglar plots, many of us saying that we will not partisan politics. It is so onerous to exert a result is the minority sometimes may be government is not equipped to govern over our vast territory, reaching from Gate, in their local affairs. If the federal centralize, we will soon find that we we government, which will prove inefficient to understand once for all that if we fail to execution of the several states we must suffer a refusal to govern.

In my judgment the greatest danger to the republic comes from the citizen who refuses or neglects to participate in governing the local, state and national affairs, and seeks protection from the government to which he does not contribute according to his ability or means. The government of the United States is one of limited power, but in the domain of its jurisdiction it is supreme, while the great jurisdiction—the supreme power not granted by the constitution to the United States—remains with the respective states. out danger and risks.

Dainty re- freshments were served. Lawrence Stephen and Billy Euper spent Saturday in Colorado Springs and Manitou. They report a royal time. On one occasion however, they both seemed to be in each other's way, and we have it from good authority that Mr. Stephen tried to “Prisco” Mr. Euper but he was like the wall of Gibraltar and could not be “shook.” The boys are not fisher- men but itis believed that they have something on the “striug” that they don't care to have exposed.

Last Sunday evening both dining rooms (up stairs and down stairs) were crowed to the utmost. Holley’s orchestra entertains every Sunday evening down stairs. Neyer be- fore was there known such an im- mense crowd together in one place as did at the “Mecca” on last Sun- day evening. The orchestra was genérously applauded on several pieces. ‘There is no dining room no better arranged and conducted than thedown stairs department. On last Sunday a number were not admitted to the down stairs on account of not being presentable for the occasion. Mr. Lacy demands the best orde, in his place of business. He has now been in business for the past two years and never known to have any disorderly conduct of any kind. He treats the pubic as he wishes to be treated, Although Mr. Lacy has had many a knock since he has been in business, nev- ertheless he has more friends and better uusiness than any other colored cafe through the West. Mr. Lacy is a gentleman in every respect, He extends a welcome hand to all “knockers” and ever keeps in rememberance the saying: “Knock and the world knocks with you Boost and you boost alone. When you knock good and loud, You will find that the crowd Has a hammer as large as you own.” ‘The opening for the new dining room will be next Tuesday Aug. 14, 1906.

Nature's Compensation. “Nature, somehow or other, always provides compensations for her daugh- ters,” remarked an artist. “All artists are aware that models for the figure who have almost perfect forms are generally homely in the faces. The round faced, shortened little woman has usually the prettiest “foot and ankle; the high cheeked, long-nosed woman the ugliest.” THE GREAT COLORADO CHAU- TAUQUA. | The Colorado Chautauqua is an in- stitution whose name has “become known in every part of the South and West. Its grounds are located on the Colorado & Southern railway, at the edge of Boulder. The Chautauqua opens July 4th, each year, and contin- ues for five weeks. The greatest lec- turers, educators, entertainers and mu- sicians of America appear upon the platform. ‘The location of the Chantanqua is unsurpassed for beauty and healthful- ness. Imagine a table land covering 300 acres on the eastern side of a vast mountain chain, whose summits are tipped with everlasting snow. On the right nature has formed a mighty chasm, whose recesses are lost in the dome of the continent, On the left, a mile away and 500 feet below, nestles the loveliest little city in America, In front is spread out a mighty plain ex- tending away toward tho boundless prairies, At the foot of the level mesa on which the surprised cad delighted beholder stands, is an enchanting val- ley, whose carpet of emerald extends as far as the eye can reach to the north, and from which arise the sounds of the farm, the gentle lowing of cattle, the faint bark of a dog or the distant rumble of a train of cars, slowly threading its way toward the limitless horizon. The secene is one of entranc- ing beauty. It lulls to restful medita tion, and as the eye drinks in the in- finite softness of mountain and plain, and the physical senses absorb the balmy sweetness of the atmosphere, the spirit is involuntarily lifted in ad- oration of the Mighty Power which cre- ated the surprising vision. Most Chautauquans are students; hence, the Chautauqua Summer School, An effort is made to meet as nearly as possible all the demands of ihose in attendance. ‘The institution is of a popular character, interesting and practical, thorough and progres- sive. The instructors are all men and women of recognized standing who lend inspiration to those who attend their classes. The work should appeal very strongly to teachers who are anx- ious to have an onting and at the same time feel they must pursue a definite | line of study to better fit them for | their next year’s work. To them are | offered opportunities for review of the common branches, for work in psy- chology and pedagogy, in primary methods, in literature, znd many other branches of study. Others will find |rea! delight and relaxation in the | Woman's Council, the literary and art [lectures and other classes told of in | this announcement. ‘A copy of the general announce- | ment containing all the details of this seagon’s session will be forwarded on request by T. E. Fisher, general pas- senger agent, Colorado & Southern railway, Denver, Colo. | | THOUGHTS BY THE WAY. | ee Some people bore you until you feel like a sieve. | Some women are a choice combina | ton of fool and fleld. | = ‘A perpetual grin is about as exas perating as a sticky fly on a hot day. ‘When a man boasts of his morality, shy off—some of his screws are loose. — \ Some people think they appear wise when they seem only disagree- able. p | Tenvy the wife of a great man; but | my tears just splish-splash over the husband of a great woman. | An editor, generally speaking, is a | moral man, because he is too busy | and too tired to be anything else. ] a People who amount to anything don't have to throw a continuous stream of hot air on their ancestors. Put a lock on your purse and your | sympathies when a fellow slaps yoa | en the back and calis you his best | triend. A woman who couldn't hit a nail ‘en the head to save her life has been known to knock a man silly without even trying. A man who always is truthful wher he tells his wife that he is going to the club should be put in a glass case. But—sh!—if she believes him, don't say a word. Many a man who proposes offers ® woman an old moth-eaten love with an unholy record of fire-escapes; but he wants a brand-new, triple-plated article in return.

Marriage is a safety pin that often comes unfastened. Man wants but little here below, and genera:ly gets less. ‘The man who marries at 20 is gen- erally a pessimist at 35. Lots of men dwindle under the atrong glass of intimate knowledge. You couldn’t knock the conceit out ef some people with brass knuckles. All the world’s a stage, and It's pretty much a continuous perfor mance. It Isn't always the cream of soctety that comes from the milk of human kindness.

WILL BUY SILVER GOVERNMENT RESUMES PUR CHASE FOR COINAGE. BULLION TENDERS INVITED Stock of Bullion Exhausted More Than a Year Ago—Has Bought No Silver for Thirteen Years—Price Will Probably Rise. Washington.—For the first time in thirteen years the government announces its purpose to purchase silver for coinage purposes. Tenders are invited at the office of the director of the mint in this city on Wednesday, the 15th inst., up to 1 o'clock p. m., and every Wednesday thereafter until further notice. These tenders are to be for delivery at the Philadelphia, New Orleans or Denver mints, settlement to be on the New York basis of bullion guaranteed 999 fine. The average requirements of the treasury throughout the year will probably not exceed 100,000 ounces per week, and it will be the policy of the department, while keeping a reasonable amount in hand, to so distribute its purchases throughout the year that its demand will be uniform and not an element of uncertainty in the market. The stock of bullion in the treasury was exhausted more than a year ago, and since then no bullion has been available for the subsidiary use. The stock in the treasury had become so low that it was apparent, according to the department, that the demands of a constantly enlarging trade could not be met without additional coinage. The United States government has been in the past an important factor in the silver market. In preparing for the resumption of specie payments and the redemption of the fractional paper currency issued during and following the Civil War, it began in January, 1875, a series of purchases ending in February, 1878, which aggregated 31,603,905 fine ounces, which cost $37,571,148 in gold, or an average of $1,188 per fine ounce. The next appearance of the government in the silver market was under the Bland-Allison act of February 28, 1878. The first purchase under this act was made at $1.21 5-16 per fine ounce, and the total expenditure for bullion under this act was $308,279,260. The total amount of bullion required was 291,272,018 fine ounces, or an average price for the whole of $1.058. The Bland-Allison act was succeeded by what is popularly known as the Sherman act, approved July 14, 1890, which enlarged the purchases of the government to 4,500,000 ounces per month. The total purchases under this act amounted to 168,674,682 fine ounces, costing $153,931,802, or an average of $0.924 per ounce. The last purchase under the act of 1890, made on October 30, 1893, was at 72 cents per ounce. From that date until the present the government has been out of the market for the purchase of silver expect as the agents of the Philippine government in the purchase of 13,500,000 ounces, costing $7,376,995, or an average of $54½ cents. The lowest price for silver was touched on December 3, 1902, when the price on the London market was equivalent to 0.478 per fine ounce; the average for last year on the London market was 61 cents per ounce, and for the month of July last, 66 cents per ounce. TRAVELING EXHIBITS. Car Will Advertise Colorado at State Fairs. Greeley, Colo.—The Greeley Commercial Club has collected $500 to be used in sending out an agricultural exhibit gathered from the vicinity of Greeley, Windsor and Ault, to advertise the resources of this section. The agricultural products will be gathered under the auspices of G. J. Spear, chairman of the agricultural and horticultural committee of the club. August 18th a Pullman car will leave Denver carrying exhibits from ten different sections of the state, to be shown in Iowa, Illinois, Indiana and Wisconsin, in connection with a stereopticon lecture on the subject of the resources and advantages of the sections in which the products were grown. The exhibits will travel 100 days and will be shown at state fairs in the above states and at interstate fairs at Sioux City, Iowa, as well as at other places. Later the exhibits will be placed at the state fair in Pueblo in September and there may compete for prizes. Greeley has donated $300 through its commercial club, Windsor and Ault $100 each toward exhibitions to be made from these localities. FILING ON LANDS. Winners Will Take Up Shoshone Reservation. Lander, Wyo.—The land office at this place is to be moved to Shoshoni, and on August 15th the filing on land in the reservation will begin. One hundred will file the first day, and the number will gradually increase. The names of the persons as they have been drawn from the box here in Lander will be called. Any who fails to answer will be placed at the foot of the list for that day, and if he then fails to answer to the call of his name he will be dropped from the list entirely. This will continue until the names are exhausted. The land office will be kept at Shoshoni until October 3d for that purpose, when the land office will be brought back to Lander. The Northwestern road is rapidly building to Lander, and now is within less than thirty-five miles. It will reach Lander within forty-five days. One hundred and sixty-five acres at the forks of the Big and Little Wind rivers, about twenty-five miles from Lander, have been set aside for a townsite. It is thought that the Northwestern is interested in the townsite location. NEWSPAPER MEN COMING OF INTERNATIONAL LEAGUE OF PRESS CLUBS. WILL ADVERTISE COLORADO State Will Soon Be Swarming With Prominent Writers—Prizes Offered for Best Articles on Attractions of the Centennial State. Denver. — "Newspapermen's Week," in Denver promises to be a noted event, bringing as it will something in the neighborhood of 500 active workers on the leading daily newspapers and other publications throughout the country. Many writers of note are arranging to visit Denver on the occasion mentioned, which is set for the week of August 27th to September 1st. Numerous inquiries concerning the prize story are being received at the headquarters of the Denver Press Club, under whose auspices the gathering is being arranged, and this apparent interest in the contest will result in keen competition for the prizes. The principal prize is a gold bar valued at $1,000, contributed by Fred G. Shaffer of this city, who was once employed on the local dalles, but who is now engaged in mining. The committee on awards and prizes consisting of James W. Kelley, city passenger agent of the Moffat road; N. A. Reinert, secretary of the Reinert Publishing Company, and Clarence Lyman chairman of the publicity committee of the Denver Real Estate Exchange, has formulated the following rules to govern the contest: "First—The judges of this competition shall be Jesse F. McDonald, governor of the state of Colorado; Robert W. Speer, mayor of Denver, and A. J. Spengel, president of the Denver Chamber of Commerce. "Second—Those eligible to compete for the prize are those who attended the Denver meeting of the International League of Press Clubs, as delegates to the convention from a press club, accredited representatives of some newspaper, magazine or other periodical, or as a newspaper man or woman not attached to any organization or publication. Colorado writers will not be permitted to compete. "Third—All persons who compete for this prize must enter their names with the chairman of the committee of judges, and have the stories which they intend to publish suitably identified by a synopsis, and by indicating the publication, in which they are to be printed, and this must be done within a month following the opening day of the convention. Stories are not to exceed 5,000 words of printed matter. "Fourth—All copies of papers or other periodicals in which are printed stories written by competitors for this prize must be filed with the chairman of the committee of judges within three months from the opening day of the convention, at which time an examination and comparison of stories will be begun, and the award made as speedily as possible. "Fifth—In judging the stories, the committee will be guided primarily by the benefit likely to accrue to Colorado by the publication of the matter under consideration. To reach this decision, they will consider, first, character of the article, with regard to style, display, position, illustration and embellishment; second, circulation of the publications in which it appears. "Sixth—The foregoing rules and conditions will also govern competitions for all second, third or any other prize given for descriptive articles written on Colorado, by writers who come to Denver during the I. L. P. C. convention." BOUGHT BY SANTA FE. Arkansas Valley Sugar Road Changes Hands. Denver.—A Republican special from Rocky Ford, Colorado, says: It seems definitely settled that the Santa Fe has absorbed the Arkansas Valley railroad. While resident officials of either company will not give out any positive information, it is nevertheless a fact that the deal has been closed. The Arkansas Valley road is being built by the American Beet Sugar Company from Rocky Ford to Lamar, a distance of sixty-five miles. The line is now completed to Shelton, an ambitious new town in the western part of Holbrook valley, eight miles east of Rocky Ford. The grading is completed to Horse creek, twenty-five miles east of here and much work has been done along the line entirely to Lamar. From Shelton to Las Animas the survey of the Arkansas Valley road and that of the Holly & Swink road are parallel and both are parallel to the Santa Fe at a distance of from five to ten miles. The acquiring of the Arkansas Valley road by the Santa Fe means the abandonment of one of the new lines, as the Holly & Swink road has been a Santa Fe proposition from the start. Rose Case in Supreme Court Washington.—A case of notable interest was docked in the Supreme Court of the United States Monday. It was that of W. W. Rose of Kansas City, Kansas, against the state of Kansas on a writ of error from the Supreme Court of the state of Kansas. Rose was mayor of Kansas City. On allegation that he was enforcing the liquor laws of the state proceedings were instituted against him and the Supreme Court of the state ousted him from his office. An election was held tochoose his successor and he was re-elected. When he again assumed the duties of his office he was cited to appear before the Kansas Supreme Court for contempt of court. He was sentenced to pay a fine and be imprisoned. He took an appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States, which was granted some time ago by Mr. Justice Brewer, and the case was filed Monday.

I have tried it for a stubborn cold and badly run down system. I tried all sorts of other medicines and paid several expensive doctor bills. Peruna cured me, strengthened me more than ever, and saved me money." Mrs. Clara Litterst, Seafield, Ind. says: "Last fall I took a severe cold. I took Peruna, began to improve and kept on so until I was able to do my work." M. Combanaire, the French explorer, recently was lost in the forests of Cambodia.

Shows Value of Liquid Fuel The steamship Goldmouth, belonging to the Shell line, has just arrived at Rotterdam, after steaming from Singapore by the route round the Cape of Good Hope, a distance of 11,791 miles, in 52 days, without once stopping the engines or checking the generation of steam in the main boilers. This performance is believed to be the largest nonstop run ever made by marine machinery. The vessel was burning liquid fuel, and with so great an economy that enough surplus is left to take the vessel 20 days steaming on her return passage east. PHILOSOPHICAL POINTS. The fatted calf never loves the prodigal son. Truth never runs around asking people to believe it. Alas, that fools are prosperous. Is it their penalty or reward? it their penalty or reward? How many of us in listening to the tomtoms forget the violins? To think an original thought is to take a step nearer the divine. People who need to be continually propped up are not worth the prop. When men become suddenly good they should be executed immediately. It is easier for some people to believe the impossible than the possible. Before it was thrown down, the Golden Calf had a son, and it is still moing around the world. It is self-evident that to successfully fathom the motives of men one must be a man himself. To an idiot—to a lunatic—all men are either idiots or lunatics. "NO TROUBLE" To Change from Coffee to Postum. "Postum has done a world of good for me," writes an Ils. man. "I've had indigestion nearly all my life but never dreamed coffee was the cause of my trouble until last Spring I got so bad I was in misery all the time. "A coffee drinker for 30 years, it irritated my stomach and nerves, yet was just crazy for it. After drinking with my meals, I would leave the table, go out and lose my meal and the coffee too. Then I'd be as hungry is ever. "A friend advised me to quit coffee and use Postum—said it cured him. Since taking his advice I retain my food and get all the good out of it, and don't have those awful hungry spells. "I changed from coffee to Postm without any trouble whatever, felt better from the first day I drank it. I am well now and give the credit to Postm." Name given by Postm Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

COLORADO NEWS ITEMS Frances Warth, the six-year-old daughter of John Warth of Denver, was burned to death on the 6th inst., while playing with matches, which set fire to her dress. Governor McDonald will be requested to open the annual flower show to be held in North park, at Colorado Springs, August 22nd to 24th inclusive, by the El Paso County Horticultural society. A terrific hail storm struck the coal mining camps of Primero and Secundo in Las Animas county on the 5th inst., hallitones covering the ground to the depth of six inches. Many windows were broken. Gaetano Flurino, an Italian, living on Delgany street in Denver, was shot and killed by his wife on the 6th, inst., because he accused her of going with other men and started to write a letter to her brother in Italy, telling him so. The body of the man found dead at the headgate of Robinson's lake and irrigating reservoir, eight miles north of Denver on the Globeville road, on the 5th, inst., has been identified as that of Fred Luksik, a resident of Denver. The offer of Abraham Bosler of Philadelphia to purchase certain of the assets of the defunct Western Bank at Denver, said to be worth $90,000, for $80,000, was refused after an expression against it by a meeting of depositors. During a panic on an Interurban electric car at Trinidad, caused by fear of being run down by a Santa Fe engine, Mrs. Thomas Dowd, wife of a Colorado & Wyoming engineer, residing at Jansen, fell and fractured her right leg at the knee in an attempt to jump from the car. Notice of the dissolution of the Limon State bank has been filed in the office of the secretary of State. The notice says that the bank has been sold out to J. M. Balley and J. M. Mcclure, who will continue the business as a private bank. The institution was capitalized at $30,000. The September term of the District Court at Trinidad promises to be one of the longest ever held in the county. There are twenty-one cases on the criminal docket at the present time and the officers state there probably will be ten or twelve added during the month. Three are murder cases. El Paso county is given a valuation of $23,850,000 in the annual report of Assessor F. F. Schreiber. The valuation is about fifty per cent. of the actually due, making the wealth of the county approximately $50,000,000. Of the assessor's estimate, $16,350,000 is on real estate, $4,000,000 on personal property and $3,500,000 on railroads. Governor McDonald attended the picnic of the Caledonian Club at Military Park, near Denver, on the 4th inst. and watched with great interest the numerous Scotch games and diversions. He also donated a gold medal for putting the sixteen-pound shot, which was awarded to Thomas McCall. There were several other medals and valuable prizes. J. J. Manuel, an employee at the state capitol, Rev. John E. Ford and B. W. Fields have been selected by the People's Sunday alliance and the colored business men of Denver as delegates to the National Negro Business League, which organization will hold a convention in Atlanta, Georgia, August 27th, 28th and 29th. The Denver delegates will endeavor to secure the 1907 convention. The engineer in charge of the work on the Gunnison tunnel, Uncompahgre irrigation project, reports that 718 feet were excavated in July and to date 14,614 linear feet. Less headway was made in July than in previous months on account of friable material encountered in heading No. 2, an accident by a premature explosion in heading No. 1, and the quantity of water flowing in the latter heading. At the meeting of the State Board of Pardons August 3d clemency was extended to Herman Anderson, who was sentenced from Lake county by Judge Owers February 10, 1903, to a term of fifteen to twenty years for murder in the second degree. His sentence was commuted to four to twenty years, under which commutation he will obtain his liberty as soon as the papers reach the penitentiary. Prof. Joseph Reed of Denver, former principal of the Glenwood schools, will take charge of a department of human education in the public schools of the state. Professor Reed's work in this line has already attracted attention, and the Roaring Fork Teachers' Association, which comprises educators in Garfield, Eagle and Pitkin counties, met last winter and approved and adopted Professor Reed's views on the matter, based on his work at Glenwood. Canon City Water Supply. Canon City, Colo.—Hiram Phillips, a prominent hydraulic engineer from St. Louis, who has been making an investigation of the watershed of the streams flowing into the Arkansas river for a distance of fifty miles west of here with a view of finding a source of mountain water for the use of this city, made an exhaustive report which was adopted by the City Council. Cottonwood creek, according to Mr. Phillips, is in many respects an ideal source of supply. It has its rise on the Continental divide and empties into the Arkansas river at a point about three miles above Cotopaxi, or thirty-two miles from Canon City. Extended Crop Reports. The Bureau of Statistics of the Department of Agriculture has so extended the scope of its work that its reports will hereafter cover a far larger number of agricultural products than in the past, the added list including alfalfa, hemp, broom corn, Kaffir corn, sorghum, blue grass, millet, sugar beets, Canadian peas, cow peas, beans, cabbage, onions, tomatoes, apples, lemons, blackberries, raspberries, strawberries, cantaloupes, watermelons and peanuts BOOKS FOR GREAT COMMANDER Library Napoleon Ordered Comprised Many Subjects. In 1808 Napoleon formed the idea of having a travelling library in order to make his hours of intellectual recreation independent of the exigencies of a campaign or the delays of a courier. The proposed library was to form about a thousand volumes. The books were to be of small duodecimo size, printed in good type, and without margins in order to save space. They were to be bound in morocco, with flexible covers and limp backs. The boxes for their conveyance were to be covered with leather and lined with green velvet, and were to average 60 volumes apiece, in two rows like the shelves in a library. A catalogue was to accompany them, so arranged that the emperor could readily find any desired volume. The distribution of subjects was as follows: Forty volumes on religion, 40 of epic poetry, 40 of the drama, 60 volumes of other poetry, 60 volumes of history and 100 novels. "In order to complete the quota," ran the instructions, "the balance shall be made up of historical memoirs."—James Westfall Thompson, in the Atlantic. BOY'S TERRIBLE ECZEMA. Mouth and Eyes Covered with Crusts—Hands Pinned Down—Miraculous Cure by Cuticura. "When my little boy was six months old, he had eczema. The sores extended so quickly over the whole body that we at once called in the doctor. We then went to another doctor, but he could not help him, and in our despair we went to a third one. Matters became so bad that he had regular holes in his cheeks, large enough to put a finger into. The food had to be given with a spoon, for his mouth was covered with crusts as thick as a finger, and whenever he opened the mouth they began to bleed and suppurate, as did also his eyes. Hands, arms, chest and back, in short the whole body was covered over and over. We had no rest by day or night. Whenever he was laid in his bed, we had to pin his hands down; otherwise he would scratch his face and make an open sore. I think his face must have itched most fearfully. "We finally thought nothing could help, and I had made up my mind to send my wife with the child to Europe, hoping that the sea air might cure him, otherwise he was to be put under good medical care there. But, Lord be blessed, matters came differently, and we soon saw a miracle. A friend of ours spoke about Cuticura. We made a trial with Cuticura Soap, Ointment and Resolvent, and within ten days or two weeks we noticed a decided improvement. Just as quickly as the sickness had appeared it also began to disappear, and within ten weeks the child was absolutely well, and his skin was smooth and white as never before. F. Hohrath, President of the C. L. Hohrath Company, Manufacturers of Silk Ribbons, 4 to 20 Rink Alley, South Bethlehem, Pa. June 5, 1905." BIBLICAL BASEBALL A Canton (O.) theological student interested in baseball wrote a thesis on "Baseball Among the Ancients," from which are gleaned the following facts: Abraham made a sacrifice. The Prodigal Son made a home run. Cain made a base hit when he killed Abel. David was a great long-distance thrower. Moses shut out the Egyptians at the Red sea. Moses made his first run when he slew the Egyptian. The devil was the first coacher. Eve stole first—Adam stole second. When Isaac met Rebecca at the well she was walking with a pitcher. Samson struck out a great many times when he beat the Philistines. Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually necessary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wearing quality of the goods. This trouble can be entirely overcome by using Defiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its greater strength than other makes. Ancestry of Dion Boucicault. The name of Boucicault is French in origin. Dion Boucicault was the son of a French refugee who fled to Ireland and married an Irish girl. He was named Dion after his father's friend, Dr. Dionysius Lardner, a noted British writer on physical science. In a Pinch, Use ALLEN'S FOOT-EASE. A powder.

WHAT JOY THEY BRING TO EVERY HOME as with joyous hearts and smiling faces they romp and play—when in health—and how conducive to health the games in which they indulge, the outdoor life they enjoy, the cleanly, regular habits they should be taught to form and the wholesome diet of which they should partake. How tenderly their health should be preserved, not by constant medication, but by careful avoidance of every medicine of an injurious or objectionable nature, and if at any time a remedial agent is required, to assist nature, only those of known excellence should be used; remedies which are pure and wholesome and truly beneficial in effect, like the pleasant laxative remedy, Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co. Syrup of Figs has come into general favor in many millions of well informed families, whose estimate of its quality and excellence is based upon personal knowledge and use. Syrup of Figs has also met with the approval of physicians generally, because they know it is wholesome, simple and gentle in its action. We inform all reputable physicians as to the medicinal principles of Syrup of Figs, obtained, by an original method, from certain plants known to them to act most beneficially and presented in an agreeable syrup in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to promote the pleasant taste; therefore it is not a secret remedy and hence we are free to refer to all well informed physicians, who do not approve of patent medicines and never favor indiscriminate self-medication. Please to remember and teach your children also that the genuine Syrup of Figs always has the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package and that it is for sale in bottles of one size only. If any dealer offers any other than the regular Fifty cent size, or having printed thereon the name of any other company, do not accept it. If you fail to get the genuine you will not get its beneficial effects. Every family should always have a bottle on hand, as it is equally beneficial for the parents and the children, whenever a laxative remedy is required.

The American tramp must look out for his laurels in the matter of stealing rides. A Roumanian recently succeeded in lodging himself on the pipes underneath a dining-car of the Orient express at Costanza, on the Black sea, these pipes affording a sort of shelf about 20 inches wide.

The ever-increasing dimensions of war vessels has led the German government to conclude to widen the Kiel canal from 60 to 130 feet, and the width at the surface from 130 feet to 350 feet.

Last year white shoes with white dress were de rigeur; this year pale gray shoes are considered more elegant. And of a truth there is nothing daintier than a gown of thin white with gray silk stockings just peeping from beneath and the neatest of shoes to match, the long gloves the same delicate shade and the hat draped with one of the new fashionable very long veils of light gray chiffon tulle. And what could excel this as a bicycle costume on a warm day—a short petticoat of light gray linen, a crisp white linen Peter Pan waist with comfortable turn-down collar and soft silk tie, gray canvas shoes and lisle hose, a Panama hat? edge of the beak likewise embroider insets of darry about the edge was a very high brim. About of pink liber the bandeau bows and long one side near fell against the white, the other The hat was. Spots are st pretty spotted morning frock One of the lat dotted white The long vells in delicate shades have been the thing ever since their introduction at the Grand Prix some time ago. And the long scarves add a pleasing touch to the summer costume, the fancy now to have the scarf caught at the back with an immense buckle, preferably the same shade as the scarf. With a white dress a scarf of salmon pink is very effective, and one of pale gray has much elegance. A charming costume was recently noticed in the park of an afternoon; the gown pale gray volle trimmed with Chantilly net and little lace frills, and worn with it a scarf of peachy pink. The hat was black tulle with masses of pink roses that harmonized beautifully with the scarf of deep pink. The prettiest lingerie hat of the year we saw yesterday, very unlike the kind that has become common—which, however, is so attractive it is no wonder the popularity. The one we speak of was made, as are most of them, of white linen. It was embroidered in big roses running close to the THE PICTURESOUE MODES Very often when a woman tries for the picturesque in dress she comes to grief, looks like a fright rather than a thing of beauty and charm. But somehow or other the woman of today attains both picturesqueness and style. She has modified princess and Empire styles to the right point, styles are reminiscent of days gone by and yet keep to a modishness that makes the wearer feel she is not "quer." The little design here pictured has the high waist line, the short puffed sleeves, and a quaint, new-old hat that adds the finishing touch. The flowered muslins, shot silks, the shoulder capes and pelerines, help out the picturesqueness very considerably in the picture styles of the day—a conglomerate of many periods and many lands. Another revived old fashion is an aid, the wearing of black velvet throat and wrist ribbons fastened with quaint bit of old jewelry or heirloom buckle. One high-bred dame of our acquaintance, a stately woman whose white pompadour frames, a most aristocratic face, looks especially well in her black velvet ribbons and diamond buckles, very like a colonial dame of pedigree and wealth. The velvet band as a rule matches the gown in color, black by no means the only choice. Wedgewood blue is very pretty in velvet, and a bright dark blue becoming against the skin as well as a good background for jeweled clas. In the fall fashions we shall find the picturesque element even more pronounced than at the present moment. The Parisians have for some time past looked kindly on the guipme princess, and now we of "the States" are to follow after. The guipme princess may be made very pretty, indeed, and promises to drive away entirely the unpretty corselet skirt. Josephine dresses, more or less modified, will rule, gowns and wraps modeled after fashions obtaining in the long ago. The waist line is pushed high up, not under the arms, but up well from the hips. For those that do not like to go to extremes, there is a temperate model of this sort—a fichu arrange- edge of the brim, the high crown was likewise embroidered, and there were insets of darned net with needlework about th edge. The shape of the hat was a very high sailor with generous brim. About the crown were folds of pink liberty wash-ribbon and on the bandeau at the back immense bows and long ends of the ribbon. At one side near the front two giant roses fell against the crown, one of pinky white, the other a trifle more pink. The hat was really exquisite. Spots are stylish, and there are very pretty spotted muslins seen, both for morning frocks and dressier wear. One of the latter we illustrate, a bluedotted white muslin. The lining is silk the color of the dot, the hat is trimmed with palest blush roses and ostrich feathers in shaded blues. The yoke is transparent, the sleeves elbow length, finished with row after row of lace frills. On skirt and bodice are bands of insertion edged with the narrowest of blue silk frills. Rows of shirring confine the fullness at the waist and outline the waist prettily. Women seem to appreciate the refreshing aspect of green and white at this time of year, and we would call to your attention two costumes where this charming combination was employed. One young girl out on a summer holiday was arrayed in white handkerchief-linen, about her embroidered linen hat was twined a wreath of pale green leaves, she wore a string of pale green beads, her belt was of light green. The other frock was of pale green linen with white belt and a shirt-waist of white China silk, the hat a light green Leghorn having for sole trimming a scarf of white silk knotted with careless grace. C Reminiscent of Old Fashions. ment crossed on the bosom allowing a filmy chemisette to show, and the longer end of the fichu tucked into a wide belt of all-round shape. There is a variety of shoulder capes, some that from the front present the appearance of a bolero and the back drawn down into folds at the waist line. They may be made of fine cloth, there are a few of brocaded silk, these last much like those worn by our grandmothers. A model which one would think must be a distinctly 1906 product, possesses, because of its extreme simplicity, picturesque qualities. We refer to the Peter Pan waist, so easy to put on, so easy to wear, so easy to launder, so easy to make. Its popularity bids fair to continue into the fall, the dealers are showing some good models in flannel and other autumn materials. With the sleeve lengthened, this waist may be worn all winter long.

Senator Beveridge was condemning a notoriously corrupt and notoriously plausible capitalist. "The man speaks well," said Senator Beveridge. "He promises much. If he acted as he talked, he would be famous for his goodness. But, alas! he is like the German who nearly lost his daughter. "This German, with his daughter, was walking beside a deep stream on a summer afternoon when the young girl slipped on a stone, fell in. And she would have drowned but for the prompt bravery of a youth. He, slipping off coat and shoes, plunged in, and after four or five minutes of hard work, brought the girl safe ashore. "The old German father was trans- ported. "'Noble-minded youth,' said he, 'we do, indeed, owe you a debt of grati- tude. A hundred thousand marks or my daughter's hand—choose! Which shall it be?' "The youth, who was no less wise than brave, thought to himself that if he took the daughter he would some day get the money also, and, accord- ingly, without a moment's hesitation, he made answer: "I choose your daughter." "'A wise choice,' said the old fa- ther. 'I could not have given you the 100,000 marks, for I am a poor cob- bler; but you shall have the girl, and that gladly. Join hands, dear child- ren, and receive my blessing.'" AMERICAN WINNER, AS USUAL. Upheld Greatness of His Native Country and Retained His Bank Roll. A Frenchman, a German, an Englishman and an American were sitting before an open fire, each one telling of the greatness of his native country. While speaking the Frenchman took from his wallet a dollar bill, rolled it up, touched it to the coals, and lighted a cigar with it. The others were impressed, and soon the German opened his wallet, brought forth a ten-dollar bill, rolled it up, touched it to the coals, and lighted his cigar with it. The Englishman thought it very foolish, but he could not be outdone, nor have it appear that England was not, as ever, the richest of all, so he calmly took a $100 bill and sacrificed it to light his cigar. The American looked on in wonder. He hadn't even a dollar bill with him, and yet he knew he represented the leading race of all—which was never outwitted or outdone by anyone on any country; so he quietly drew forth a checkbook, wrote a check for $10, 000 on a prominent New York bank, duly signed it, rolled it up, touched it to the coals, and lighted his cigar with it, while his conferees watched him curiously and intently.—Ladies' Home Journal. Sea Cow's Back as Marking Pad People who visited the zoo greatly annoyed the keeper of the sea cow, a new acquisition, by poking it with canes or pencils. Exhausted by his efforts to stop the practice, he engaged a tramp for 50 cents and told him to keep track of how many people looked at the manatee. At six o'clock the keeper looked up his substitute. "There's been more than 5,000 people here," said the latter. "I haven't dime to reckon up the exact number yet, and won't until I audit up my books." "Where's the paper you kept your accounts on?" asked Stephen, the keeper. "I didn't have any paper," answered the hobo, as if proud of his ingenuity, "but I had a good soft lead pencil and tept tab on the sea cow's back." He pointed to the patient manatee, the back of which resembled a blackboard in a country schoolhouse after the annual examination.-Cincinnati Correspondence Cleveland Leader. Question for Botanists. It has often been observed that any sudden change in the superficial character of the soil is rapidly followed by an alteration in the nature of the plants growing thereon, new species appearing where the ground has hitherto been a stranger to them. Very many farmers, foresters and scientific men—among others the French botanist Poisson—are inclined to attribute this phenomenon to the retention by seeds, bulbs or spores of a former growth of vegetation in a quiescent state, these seeds and growths retaining their powers of germination even after several other successive crops of plants have grown above them. Not His Fault. Though: "It is a very fine thing to be brave and generous and noble," said Bliss Perry, the writer, editor and Harvard teacher, "but sometimes we are generous and noble against our will. Then, of course, we deserve no credit. "Of this type was a young married man whose father-in-law, a reputed millionaire, burst in on him one day and groaned: "All is lost! I am utterly ruined!" "Ahem," said the son-in-law; 'then I married for love, after all.'" His Finish. "Yes'm," said little Tommy Tipples, "pop died of ammonia." "Ammonia?" said his teacher. "Oh yes, I see, you mean 'pneumonia.'" "No. I don't; I mean 'ammonia.' I seen the label on the bottle after he brank it."
