PATRONIZE THE MERCHANTS THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY Negro Criminals On the increase. Charleston W. Va., Advocate Says the Negro will be Outlawed by American People if crime is not checked. VOL. XII. Negro C On the increase. Charleston Negro will be Outlawed if crime is The persistent criminal outbreaks among the young men of our race cannot be overlooked. Nearly all of the revolting crimes that make decent, self respecting Negroes drop their heads in shame are committed by young, ignorant, wayward Negroes. In utter helplessness the better class of Negroes ask themselves what can be done to correct this increasing criminal tendency that is making the very name of "Negro," a word of hate and contempt the country over. Unless some means can be found to increase the confidence of our fellow countrymen in our honor and trustworthyness, our case will go from bad to worse, until we are outlawed by the American people. We do not say for a moment that the accusations which are often laid at our door are true; on the contrary, in many instances we believe them to be the result of current report. All of the assaults may not be true, but too many of them are true. All of the loudness lewdness and rowdyism in public places of which our youngsters are accused may not be true, but too much of it is true and we must stand condemned by public opinion. Nor is it by any means the fact that all of the loudness and lewdness that attracts public attention to our misbehavior is the work of the socalled ignorant and vicious. We are discriminated against on the street cars and in public places of amusement and pleasure as often on account of the actions of the young under done Negro sport of good parents and better raising as by the Negro with poorer opportunities for knowing better. Crime is on the increase among every class of Americans Our jails and penitentiaries are gutted with victims who were a menace to society. While the socioligists of other races are searching for the causes which produce these unnatural human beings, it will be well for the Negro leaders in every hamlet and city to begin not only to discover the cause of the disease, but to find out a cure for the malady. One of the chief causes for crime among us is lack of proper home restraints and training. The home is the cardinal unite in all State Historical and N H Society, Denver, Colo ATRON COLOR O ADVERTISE criminals W. Va., Advocate Says the d by American People not checked. higher civilization. Where the influence of the fireside casts no restraining light, the occupants of the home are liable to have criminal tendencies. Many of our older people are industrious. Both the father and the mother are compelled to leave home every morning for work and the children too often are left to shift for themselves the rest of the day. They go where they please and with whom they please and do what they please. The consequences is that they pick up vicious habits as a homeless dog finds fleas. The constant influence of the street naturally becomes more potent than the intermittent influence of the home. Our boys and girls too often lack training. The influence of the Young Men's Christian Association and other societies which invite and hold to better ideals the young or other Americans is too often lacking among us. Children who are left at home to look after themselves drift into the habit of truancy and the habit of truancy naturally encourages untruthfulness. As their is nobody at home to force them to get ready for school and the street is more pleasant than the schoolroom, truancy, the first step to vagrancy and crime is a natural result. Again the Negro boy is often cramped and crowded and finds no proper outlet for normal physical activities. Crime, as it has often been said, is only energy misdirected. The Negro boy is too often lost for some clean, elevating sport and drifts to crime because he has no other outlet for his surplus energy. It is well to remember that if a boy cannot find a good way to enjoy life he will undoubtedly find a bad one. The boy who can go to a reading room during winter nights, with a number of games and a place for hand ball and physical training does not care, if he has right principles, to loaf in a stuffy saloon. If we spend less money building churches and more time in finding proper amusements for our children, the cases of moral deformity among us would grow fewer. If we could direct the energy of the young into prouder chanels, the desire for the base and criminal --- DENVER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, AUGUST 25, 1906. would be proportionately decreased. The growth of the spirit of disregard for law and order all over our country encourages the young to careful living, not only the black boy but the white boy as well is being daily criminalized by lynchings and mob outrages of every kind. The newspapers hold up the brutal exhibitions both of crime and its instant punishment to the detriment of good morals. The disregard for law is growing so rapidly that for any crime, by whoever committed mutterings against the "law delay" are heard and covert threats to deal with the culprit outside of the courts. Such threats are making white criminals and black criminals. No man can live from birth in a country or a community without unconsciously imbiding its spirit. Children start mobs and often glory in their work and all children absorb the spirit of lawlessness by mental contact with the idea as daily spread before them in the public press. What are we going to do about it? We ask ourselves this question every time we read of an assault and its punishment. What can we do about it? Certainly nothing for the culprit that has just breathed his last. What can we do for this kind? How can we reach the low and vicious Negro? Not through the school for he shuns education. He will not come to church to be healed of his insanity, in other words moral depravity. How shall he be reached, for reached he must be or the whole race must stand condemned at the bar of public opinion for this crime. We must take the church to him. We must give him nor his crime no quarters. We must stop doubting his guilt and preach in season and out of season the doctrine of utter separation of utter separation in all social relations of all classes, with any other save the women of his own races. Commense to teach the children that a race can rise no higher than the respect it has for its own women. This is not the work of a day but if the seed be sown constantly in time a lynching for assault will be an unknown crime. Let us not cease to impress upon our boys and girls that good behavior in public and private alone brings respect and that loudness in public places in consigning us all to the permanent place of inferiors. In public we should be seen and not heard. Whoever attracts attention to himself lacks good breeding. Do this and the influence of such teaching will be felt in the years to come.

NIAGRA MOVEMERT Protest is Registered against "Jim Crow" Cars and other Race Discrimination. Harper's Ferry, W. Va., Aug. 19. The second annual meeting of the Niagra movement came to a close to day with religious services and a sermon by Rev. G. Frazier Miller. At the conclusion of the sermon, an address to the country was read. It says in part: "Addresses to the country: The men of the Niagra movement coming here from the toil of the years of hard work and pausing a moment from the earning of their daily bread turn toward the nation and again ask in the name of 10,000,000 the privilege of a hearing. In the past year the work of the Negro has flourished in the land. Stripped in subterfuge and in its naked nastiness the new American creed says: Fear to let black men even try to rise lest they become the equals of the white. "In details our demands are clear and unequivocal. First, we would vote; with the right to vote goes everything. Freedom, manhood, the honor of your wives, the chastity of your daughters and the right to work and the chance to rise, and let no man listen to the liars who deny this. We want fuli manhood suffrage, and we want it now, henceforth and forever. Second, we want discrimination in public accommodations to cease. Separation in railway and street cars, based simply on race and color, is un-American, un-Democratic and silly. We protest against all such discrimination. Third, we claim the right of free men to walk, talk and be with them that wish to be with us. No man has a right to choose another man's friends and to attempt to do so is an impudent interference with the most fundamental human privilege. "Fourth, we want the laws enforced against the rich as well as the poor, against capitalist as well as laborer; against white as well as black. We are not more lawless than the white race, but we are more often arrested, convicted and mobed. We want justice even for criminals and outlaws. We want the constitution of the country enforced. We want congress to take charge of congressional elections. We want the fourteenth amendment carried out to the letter and every state disfranchised in congress which attempts to disfranchise its rightful voters. We want the fifteenth amendment enforced and no state allowed to base its franchise simply on color. "Fifth, we want the national government to wipe out illiteracy in the South. We want our children trained as intelligent human beings should be, and we will fight for all time against any proposal to educate black boys and girls simply as servants and underlings, or simply for the use of other people. "These are some of the chief things which we want. How shall we get them? By voting where we may vote, by persistent, unceasing agitation, by hammering at the truth, by sacrifice and work. We do not believe in violence but we do believe in John Brown, and here on the scene of John Brown's martrydom we reconsecrate ourselves, our honor, our property to the final emancipation of the race which John Brown died to make free." The address closes with an appeal to the young men and women of the nation and asks: "Cannot the nation that has absorbed 10, 000,000 foreigners into its political life without catastrophe absorb 10., 000,000 Negro Americans into that same political life at less cost than their unjust and illegal exclusion will involve.? LABOR PROBLEM SERIOUS In the Southern States, Says T. 0. Burriss of Mississippi. Speaking of the labor problem in the South, T. O. Burriss of Columbus, Miss., who is a guest in Denver, had the following to say in an interview with a local press reporter: "I say with authority that the only serious problem in the South is the lack of labor. The Negro is almost an ideal laborer, but they are searce. The labor famine threatens our future prosperity. It is observable in both factory and field." Asked why immigration had not been diverted from the West and East, Mr. Burriss said: "Simply because the immigrants refuse to settle in a section where they must compete with the black man. We have tried to divert them but they won't come there, and if they come they won't stay. The Jap and the Mexican decline all overtures. We are paying to-day three times the salary paid a few years ago, but it is no inducement." "Vardaman? Vardaman? Pray excuse me, I am not a politician. What do we think of his ideas? Do we agree with him that the white man should no longer be taxed to educate the Negro? No sir, we do not. We think his idea is absured. We know positively that the Negro should be educated to a certain extent. "Will Vardaman succeed Money as senator? W-e-l-l, you know, Mississippi is Democratic, and Vardaman is very popular with a certain element. He is not so well liked by the best people of the state." NO. 48. RACE NEWS Gathered from Various Sources. RACE NEWS Gathered from Vartous Sources. Raleigh, N. C., Aug. 15.—In an address to the people of North Carolina today, Governor Glenn, after calling attention to recent lawless acts by the mobs, announced that in the future the militia will be instructed to fire on the crowds when that step is deemed necessary by the sheriff of the county in which the trouble occurs. Hattiesburg, Miss., Aug. 15. With one bullet through his heart and another through his temple, entering at one side of the head and coming out at the other, Chas. Williams, a Negro of this city, has servived for three days, and the prospects are that he will eventually recover. The wounds were inflicted by a 38-caliber revolver, fired at short range by another Negro with whom Williams had quarreled. Williams fell over as though dead. The undertaker was telephoned for, but a doctor beat the funeral man to the scene, and when the dead wagon arrived the wounded Negro was able to sit up Since then he has been eating heartily, and the physicians venture the opinion that he will recover if no unforseen complications arise. Springfield, Mass., Aug. 16. Miss Margaret M. Dooley of Plattsburg, N. Y., white, young and attractive, was married today to Edward Williams, a Negro, also of Plattsburg. The ceremony was performed in the Municipal building by City Clerk E. A. Newell. Mr. Newell, though opposed to mixed marriages, could discover no legal grounds on which he could decline to perform the ceremony. The bridegroom is tall and well proportioned, while the bride is slight in stature. During the ceremony she clung affectionately to the arm of her companion. The couple came to Springfield to escape the disapproval of the woman's family. The bridegroom gave his age as 32; his home 39 Margaret street, Plattsburg, and his occupation as that of steward. The bride said that she was 24, and that her parents were William and Bridget Dooley of Plattsburg. The couple were fashionably attired and were provided with funds. "Serpent Mound." The greatest monument of the mound builders, not only in Ohio, but in the entire country, is the Serpent Mound, in Adams county.

Let Me Send You a Package of Defiance Starch It is not generally known—not even among painters—why certain tints and colors are much better than others on tints, and the knowledge of just what tints are best to use is, therefore, rather hazy. One writer on paints, in a recent book, says that experiments seem to show that those colors which resist or turn back the heat rays of the sum, will protect a house better than those which allow these rays to pass through the film. Thus red is a good color because it turns back, or reflects the red rays, and the red rays are the hot rays. In general, therefore, the warm tones are good and the cold tones are poor, so far as wear is concerned. In choosing these, browns, grays and olives, which, considering the various tones these tints will produce, will give a wide range from which to choose. Avoid the harsh shirts, such as cold yellows (like lemon), cold gowns (like dresses) grass green, but untreated. It must be understood that no virtue is claimed for tints in themselves, irrespective of the materials used in the paint. Any color will fade, and the paint will scale off, if adulterated white lead or canned paint is used, but if one is careful to use the best white lead—some well-known brand of a reliable manufacturer—and genuine linseed oil, the warm tints mentioned above will outwear the same material tinted with the cold colors. Yes, Alonzo, there are some fair singers who are not blondes. PUTNAM FADELESS DYES color more goods, brighter colors, with less work than others. Small Profits of Pawnshops. Consul General George W.

MISS RICKA LEOPOLD MISS RICKA LEOPOLD, 137 Main street, Menasha, Wis., Sec'y Liederkranz, writes: "Three years ago my system was in a terrible run-down condition and I was broken out all over my body. I began to be worried about my condition and I was glad to try anything which would relieve me. "Peruna was recommended to me as a fine blood remedy and tonic, and I soon found that it was worthy of praise. "A few bottles changed my condition materially and in a short time I was all over my trouble. "I owe to Peruna my restoration to health and strength. I am glad to endorse it." Pe-ru-na Restores Strength. Mrs. Hettie Green, R. R. 6, Iuka, Ill., writes: "I had catarrh and felt miserable. I began the use of Peruna and began to improve in every way. My head does not hurt me so much, my appetite is good and I am gaining in flesh and strength." Switzerland's Silk Production. Switzerland's Shi Product Few people probably suspect the extent to which Switzerland figures among the silk-producing countries of the world, which, so far as Europe is concerned, have always been supposed to be France and Italy. But Switzerland exports annually silk to the value of about $20,000,000, nearly all going to European countries. Facts About Alaska. Facts About Alaska. Alaska is an interesting region. In area she is twice as large as Texas, with California thrown in, but her resident white population numbers only about 30,000, though in summer she has from 10,000 to 20,000 more whites. In fur, fish and minerals she is rich. Since her annexation she has furnished $50,000,000 of furs, $60,000,000 of fish and $70,000,000 of minerals, chiefly gold and silver. Her output of gold, which was $9,000,000 in 1904, was $16,000,000 in 1905, and will be fully $26,000,000 in 1906.—Leslie's Weekly. Another Dig at Powers. A few days ago Gov. Cobb, of Maine, and Hon. W. R. Pattangall, prominent in politics in the same state, were together on a train. Mr. Pattangall is a lawyer and an editor, the writer of the humorous "Meddy-bemps Letters" appearing in his paper, the Machias Union. In the course of conversation, Gov. Cobb remarked to Mr. Pattangall: "I don't see why you and Lilwellyn Powers should be so extremely antagonistic to each other. Neither of you ever fails to give the other a rap when there is opportunity." At this point an interested listener in the car leaned toward their chairs and asked: "Is it really true that ex-Gov. Powers is of Indian descent?" "Well, the Indians deny it," Mr. Pattangall answered, in his inimitable manner. SALLOW FACES Often Caused by Coffee Drinking. A Washn. young lady tells her experience: "All of us—father, mother, sister and brother—had used tea and coffee for many years until finally we all had stomach troubles more or less. "We were all sallow and troubled with pimples, breath bad, disagreeable taste in the mouth, and all of us simply so many bundles of nerves. "We didn't realize that coffee was the cause of the trouble until one day we ran out of coffee and went to borrow some from a neighbor. She gave us some Postum and told us to try that. "Although we started to make it, we all felt sure we would be sick if we missed our strong coffee, but we were forced to try Postum and were surprised to find it delicious. "We read the statements on the pkg., got more and in a month and a half you wouldn't have known us. We were all able to digest our food without any trouble, each one's skin became clear, tongues cleaned off and nerves in fine condition. We never use anything now but Postum. There is nothing like it." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book, "The Road to Wollerville," "There's a reason." DEATH OF JUDGE MILLER. Colorado Pioneer and Veteran of the Mexican War. Denver.—George Ware Miller, who was largely instrumental in having the capitol removed from Golden to Denver, and who was a most important factor in the making of early Colorado history as a politician and a lawyer, died Monday afternoon at his home, 2235 Curtis street. His death was caused by pneumonia which can be directly traced back to a cold taken one evening last week when a shower caused a sudden falling of the thermometer. Judge Miller's lifetime was a busy one. He was born in Cooper county, near Booneville, Missouri. His father was a Missouri jurist of note and a direct descendant of a captain in the Revolutionary War. He dropped out of school to become a member, at the age of fourteen, of the command of Colonel Doniphan in the war with Mexico. After the capture by General Kearney of Santa Fe, young Miller joined in an expedition to Taos to suppress the Indo-Mexican revolution, in which Governor Charles Bent was assassinated. The lad was wounded in the first charge. In 1848 he went back to Missouri, later being graduated from Chapel Hill College and the University of Missouri at Columbia. He left Columbia, going to Kansas and later coming to Colorado, where he married a Mrs. Arbuckle, a widow. The first Mrs. Miller died twenty years ago, and a year later Judge Miller went back to the little Missouri college town, sought out the sweetheart of his schoolboy days, who had never married, and brought her back to Colorado as his wife. From the early days of his youth Judge Miller took an active interest in politics. He was always ready for a debate and was valedictorian of his class at the Missouri State University. He taught school for two years immediately after, and then was admitted to the Missouri bar, in 1856, in Columbia. Later in the same year he went to Paola, Kansas, where he took an important part in politics, always Democratic, and where he was elected a county judge. Incidentally Judge Miller held the distinction of having served as a county judge in three states—Missouri, Kansas and Colorado. The coming of the Civil War broke up his law business in Kansas and in 1864 he made one of a party that crossed the plains in a prairie schooner, coming to Denver. He formed a law partnership with V. D. Markham, a law firm which in the early days enjoyed numerous big cases. Judge Miller could not keep out of politics. He served in the lower house of the Territorial Legislature from 1867 to 1870, inclusive, two terms; in the latter year he was defeated for Congress by Jerome B. Chaffee, Republican. He served as chairman of the state central Democratic committee in 1875 and 1876. In 1876 he was defeated for the supreme bench. In 1886 he began two terms as county judge of Arapahoe county. ADAMS COUNTY TROUBLES. Decision in County Commissioner and Contempt Cases. Denver.—At Brighton Tuesday Judge E. E. Armour handed down an opinion in the District Court in the case of A. H. Packard vs. John Benbow and others. This is known as the county commissioner case and has been pending since March except during the time it was tied up in the Supreme Court. The decision makes the temporary injunction a permanent one, thus recognizing A. H. Packard as the defacto county commissioner of Adams county. It restrains John Benbow, excommissioner, the sheriff and his deputies, the county clerk and deputies, County Commissioner Edward Fitzpatrick and all of their agents, servants and employees, from in any way interfering with A. H. Packard in the discharge of his duties as county commissioner. It also holds all of the acts of the so-called old board, consisting of John Benbow and Edward Fitzpatrick acting with him, done since the appointment of Packard, void. The contempt cases against John Benbow, ex commissioner; Edward Fitzpatrick, commissioner; C. E. Lunney, county clerk; F. W. McIntosh, his deputy; J. P. Higgins, sheriff, and L. B. Ireland and Edward Coyle his deputies; were decided this afternoon. The judgments were: John Benbow, Edward Fitzpatrick C. E. Lunney and J. P. Higgins fined $500 each, and F. W. McIntosh, L. B. Ireland and Edward Coyle $50 each. In each case the fine included the costs. The three latter were given twenty days in which to pay their fines. The others were remanded to jail in default of payment of their fines. BRYAN INDORSED. Named for President by Illinois Democratic Convention. Peoria, Ill.-The Democratic state convention Tuesday made these nominations: For State Treasurer—N. L. Plotrowski of Chicago. For Superintendent of Public Instruction—Miss Caroline Grout of Pike county. For Trustees of the University of Illinois—Daniel R. Cameron of Chicago, John S. Cuneo of Chicago, Miss Clara Borland of Peoria. By a vote of 1,038 to 570 the convention placed upon the table the request of William J. Bryan for the resignation of Roger C. Sullivan from the national committee. Despite the fact that Mr. Bryan had declared that he did not wish to be indorsed unless Sullivan was repudiated, the convention declared him to be the one and only man capable of leading the Democratic party to victory in 1908. The indorsement of Bryan and the tabling of the motion calling for the resignation of Mr. Sullivan came at the close of a most exciting session of the convention, in which there were several fights, and throughout which confusion reigned supreme.

Russell Sage, the multimillionaire, the man who never took a vacation, never spent more than $8 for a suit of clothes and never ate a more elaborate meal than fried potatoes and beef steak—has passed over the range. He is said to be worth from sixty to one hundred millions. We have thus far refrained from saying anything about the wise old miser until his will or benefactions were announced. Whatever may be the general verdict of the people and the press concerning the life and success and disposition, of his vast accumulations there is something in this man's life worthy of imitation by the good-time, gilded youths of the Negro race. 1. The poverty of his youth and his determination to get some of this world's goods, and the result of that determination was he got it. 2. His determination to keep it, and he kept it and did not let it injure him. He was far more frugal with his millions than the average porter or errand boy would be with his dimes. 3. His continued purpose, having once set his purpose and started upon his course he never deviated from it an iota, but kept straight ahead until the day of his death. 4. His dislike of show or ostentation. Imagine our twentieth century dudes wearing an $8. suit of clothes, a $2 hat and other articles accordingly, and worth $100,-000,000. Gee-willikens! No patient leathers, no picnics, no automobiles? Nit. Our young man would rather be dead. 5. His frugal meals. Morning, coffee and sinkers; lunch, sandwich and apple; night, beefsteak and fried potatoes. Whee! what a stomach! No lobster salad, Welch rarebit, dinner parties, high-balls or champagne. But Uncle Russell did not have dyspepsia, gout, big-head, rheumatism, or swelled feet, or Bright's disease, and he lived to be nearly ninety years of age, though he took no vacations, nor went to Europe. While Russell Sage had his faults and we doubt not many of them—one thing is certain. He was no fool. He made his own way. He was independent. He let other people alone and asked that they let him alone. If he was not respected by others, he respected himself. People respected his wealth, for money talks in very plain language, and says things that everybody understands. While we do not set forth his life as the highest example, we still believe it has elements to admire and imitate, as well as many to avoid. His life will stand a careful study and investigation for the fast young men of our times. By his legacy Mrs. Sage now becomes the richest woman in the world and the question is, what will she do with it? WHEN PREJUDICE BLINDS JUSTICE. One of the most startling dramas of modern history came to a close recently when the highest court of France annulled the extraordinary verdict of disgrace of Capt. Alfred Dreyfus, of the French army. This was a sweeping vindication. Dreyfus, the Jew, once condemned without a hearing, and heaped with all of the indignities which the high-spirited Frenchman could invent, is now returned to rank, position and favor. "The mills of the Gods grind slowly, yet they grind exceedingly fine." Twelve long years is suffered to pass before justice awakes, but she rises at last and hastens to repair the wrong. The French cross of the Legion of Honor for the man who once his nation could not sufficiently dishonor. These are the morals to be drawn from this case. The strongest lesson that it teaches is, first, that only by withholding public opinion until the courts have had opportunity to thoroughly investigate without prejudice, can we hope to see justice done. If the Denver newspapers and police departments had done this in the case of Turner, accused of the Spellman murder, they would not have made fools and "yellows" of themselves. 2nd. That there is too much tendency in these days to try an accused man without testimony and to prejudice his innocence by the announcement that he has confessed. To jump to the conclusion that men are guilty and too little willingness to grant that charity of doubt which should characterize all courts and hold the accused innocent until he is proved guilty. 3rd. The authorities are in danger of repeating in Denver to-day similar circumstances. It was because Dreyfus was a Jew and the French people had voted to dislike all Jews that he was railroaded to punishment and refused all relief by the courts. Had the French people permitted their prejudices to cool long enough for the courts of justice to make an honest inquiry they would no doubt have found their own countryman and blood, General Esterhazy to be the real culprit; that time and facts have since proven him to have been, and the French people would have been spared the disgrace of inflicting punishment on an innocent man at the instigation of the one who was himself guilty of the crime that he charged against another. Has not this been proven true in numbers of instances here in America, and here in Denver, where the Negro has been time and time again convicted by prejudice? But with this difference, that Dreyfuss was at last honored above any station he could have hoped to have achieved by merit, while the Negro, when he has demonstrated his innocence, has found no redress or reward for the wrongs he has suffered. Let arrogant America be as tolerant and gracious as proud France, and the Negro will have no just cause to complain. WE ARE NOT DISCOURAGED The second assembly of the Young People's Christian and Educational Congress has come and gone. The gathering met in Washington, D.C. It was composed of 3,000 delegates from every part of the nation. They gave evidence as well as testimony of the progress of the race from every section of the country. In some sections more progress was reported than in others, but from every part of the A T a distance they seem much all woman wishes to look like the clothes, and the Parisian woman as the American woman. Best same tenderly treated, tired, big the same flowery hat, face and study in tints. But the real difference is e Parisian woman really is tired, ter pretends to look tired because The Americans are not a bit tired. They cannot kill them. The French woman understands that when it is weak. That does not suit springs are of steel. Both have the carriage, but the springs of the Parisian are the Parisian, with all her freedom and gracey in her. She knows this makes her awherishes the awkwardness, for it can be an how to manage it. Every step of the French woman is different American is the same. The Parisian sees everything as she pays everything and everyone. The American is an artist in passing is nificent; she sees just what she likes. Lots cause she does not look at them. The American dangling for attention and admiration. The French woman has temperament as American has temperament and hides it. The American is made for a coquette. Made for love. The American is a French woman cooler. A T a distance they seem much alike, for the American woman wishes to look like the Parisian woman in her clothes, and the Parisian woman wishes to be as slender as the American woman. Besides, they both have the same tenderly treated, tired, big-as-your-hand face under the same flowery hat, face and flowers contrasting—a study in tints. But the real difference is enormous. As a rule the Parisian woman really is tired, while her American sister pretends to look tired because it is fashionable. The Americans are not a bit tired. They are very healthy. You cannot kill them. The French woman understands that her sex is strong only when it is weak. That does not suit the American. Her springs are of steel. Both have the same easy, careless carriage, but the springs of the Parisian are not of steel. Moreover, the Parisian, with all her freedom and grace, has an ounce of modesty in her. She knows this makes her awkward at times, but she cherishes the awkwardness, for it can be an added grace if you know how to manage it. Every step of the French woman is different. Every step of the American is the same. The Parisian sees everything as she passes; she has a smile for everything and everyone. The American is an artist in passing by; her bearing is magnificent; she sees just what she likes. Lots of people are angry because she does not look at them. The American has not the same longing for attention and admiration. The French woman has temperament and shows it. The American has temperament and hides it. The American is made for a coquette. The French woman is made for love. being that we can see the bad more truly that has thought of woman throughout the centre by what he has written of her; and oh! he we now a queen, now a stumbling block, now temptation—there are almost as many opion are women to regard. "Frailty, thy name is peare. Emerson, coming later, says: "Whocurate mate, society begins and life is delicioumains in the midst of the contradictions is generous things are said of man and woman woman some other one woman or man may.

The very question is treason, of course which it is accounted almost profanity our novelists know the natures of men and of their own faces in a mirror, and present them can draw excellent traits of men and women too often these traits are laid out in parcels, pudding before the mixing.

What we sex is this set of inherited opinions spread o tures. For the final third we have a little true and most of all conjecture. being that we can see the bad more truly than the good. What man has thought of woman throughout the centuries can best be judged by what he has written of her; and oh! he wavers sadly! Woman is now a queen, now a stumbling block, now an inspiration, now a temptation—there are almost as many opions regarding her as there are women to regard. "Frailty, thy name is woman," says Shakespeare. Emerson, coming later, says: "When a man meets his accurate mate, society begins and life is delicious." One fact which remains in the midst of the contradictions is that whatever bitter or generous things are said of man and woman, to some one man or woman some other one woman or man may be a hero. A sad point which impresses us next is the rarity with which the pen of man can depict a good woman, or the pen of woman a good man. With satire or with censure they are adept enough; but how many men can draw with entire success a good woman, life-like and whole? How many women have depicted a flesh-and-blood good man? The very question is treason, of course, for it has become a creed which it is accounted almost profanity to deny, that certain of our novelists know the natures of men and women as thoroughly as their own faces in a mirror, and present them equally well. That some can draw excellent traits of men and women no one will deny, but too often these traits are laid out in parcels, like the ingredients of a pudding before the mixing. We admit, however, that men and women see one another more clearly than they can express in words. One of the mistakes they make in life, though, is always to be attempting to classify. Men and women will not be classified; when we think we have them neatly labeled, they fling round and do something which knocks the bottom out of all the theories. We start life with two-thirds of our opinions ready-made, such as—"Man is selfish," "Woman is spiteful." We have inherited these, and even if we have proved them unjust, on the slightest provocation we revert to them. What we really see of each other's sex is this set of inherited opinions spread out over our fellow creatures. For the final third we have a little truth, a little misconception, and most of all conjecture. Spirit of Individual Citizenship Needed By JUSTICE DAVID J.

Much is to be heard in these days of the community of interest, the brotherhood of man, solidarity, etc.; but the best of all that comes from the free and voluntary action of the individual man, acting as such. We will never pass the danger line of our government until each individual man feels that upon him rests the destiny of his country, I rejoice much in the magnificence of the great nation, but far more in the individual character and manhood of the different states. I believe in the future of the country. There will be a resurrection of the glory of the past. Dangers threaten, however; for men are teaching themselves to depend too much on the government, and not enough on their own individuality and character. nation one minor key was sounded and that was that prejudice was on the increase. "Prejudice on the increase," what a sad message. After forty years of untiring struggle still prejudice on the increase, but Bishop Waters added the keynote and major strain to the sad refrain when he cried out in clarion tones. "But we are not discouraged." The great audience caught up the message, "We are not discouraged." A race is what its spirit and determination indicate. Nothing can injure us except that which weakens our mind by weakening our courage. A race can survive anything except the breaking of the mainspring in the heart and mind, and that mainspring is human courage. Friends may be lost. We can make others if we deserve them. Money may be lost. More can be earned through industry. The world may take from you the honor it gives. You may be misunderstood, ridiculed and dispised, but while you keep courage you have not lost the fight. Iron is improved by hammering. Steel is tempered by repeated heating and rolling; the cold diamond is made brilliant by grinding and cutting, and misfortunes, discouragement and prejudice, if we stubbornly rise above them, will make successful men and women and put character in them. Remember, every man whose work is worth while has had his share of discouragement. Every race and the history of great nations are simply repeated stories of courage triumphantly overcoming difficulties and so it is with the Negro. Blackness shall not frighten him. Prejudice shall not make him give up. He is going through the hardships of life and whatever else may happen he is coming out on top. He is not discouraged. Bishop Waters' words ring true. "We are not discouraged." Courage to the mind is like blood to the body, or air to the lungs; there can be no active life without it. Let us thank God and take new courage. The Negro is in the race for honor and achievement and it is bound to come if he only keeps up his courage and the race still shows that it has an abundance of the article on hand. At the request and earnest solicitation of my many friends I wish to announce that I will be a candidate for District Judge subject to the rules of the Republican convention. G. Q. RICHMOND Washington, Aug. 16.—Acting Postmaster General Hitchcock has instructed Postmaster Ramsy of Salisbury, N. C., to prohibit lynching souvenir postal cards from passing through the mails. Hundreds of postal cards portraying the guesse sight of three Negroes dangling from the limb of a tree were printed by Salisbury firm soon after the recent lynching. These cards were placed on sale. Large numbers were sold, and the purchasers began sending them broadcast throughout the country, using the mails as a means of distribution. Postmaster Ramsey, when the matter was brought to his attention, ordered that all such cards should be held up pending investigation, by the Washington authorities. One of the cards was mailed to this city. The clothing of the hanging victims is shown in the picture to have been torn from their bodies. Numerous bullet wounds are also shown. Don't forget that Longmont extends a special invitation to all to attend the Seventh Annual Pumpkin Pie Day celebration on Thursday, August 30th.

At the real difference is enormous in woman really is tired, which tends to look tired because it is not a bit tired. They are woman understands that her hair that does not suit the steel. Both have the same strings of the Parisian are not full her freedom and grace, has knows this makes her awkwardness, for it can be an added the French woman is different one.

Is made for a coquette. That is a French woman cooled on T a distance they seem much alike, for the American woman wishes to look like the Parisian woman in her clothes, and the Parisian woman wishes to be as slender as the American woman. Besides, they both have the same tenderly treated, tired, big-as-your-hand face under the same flowery hat, face and flowers contrasting—a study in tints. But the real difference is enormous. As a rule the Parisian woman really is tired, while her American sister pretends to look tired because it is fashionable. The American is a French woman cooled on ice.

Wife's Keen Business Sense Cost Mr. West That. "Did you hear from Mr. Williams today?" asked Mrs. West, as she poured the coffee. "Yes," replied Mr. West, reaching for his cup; "he will call at eight o'clock this evening to look the house over. I feel that he will take it, for his wife is about as anxious to live in the suburbs as you are to leave them." "I suppose," said Mrs. West, with a longing look, "that my presence will not be wanted during a business interview; but I shall die of anxiety and curiosity in the meantime, for I have that new home all built in my imagination." "Why, dear, stay if you wish; your presence will lend an additional charm to the place," said Mr. West, gallantly. "Thank you, Jack," said Mrs. West, smiling. "It's time I knew something about business, any way. I've read so much recently of how great men really, owe much of their success to their wives. You know how much money Mr. Hamilton has made? Well, he told me that he never thought of making a deal without Mrs. Hamilton's advice and approval." At exactly eight o'clock the bell rang, and Mr. Williams was admitted. After a pleasant chat, that was greatly brightened by Mrs. West's cheerful presence, an inspection of the house was made. Mr. Williams did not disguise his approval of the premises, and Mr. West, watching the satisfied expression of his face, realized the certainty of the sale. Finally Mr. Williams asked: "What is your price, Mr. West?" "Seven thousand dollars," replied Mr. West. Mr. Williams was on the point of accepting this offer when Mrs. West interrupted him, saying to Mr. West, in a reproachful, pleading voice: "Why, dear, you told me you would take $6,000." WAS THE PLAYTHING OF FATE. Ardent Wooer Foiled in Three Attempts to Propose. A rich widow in Koloczvar, Hungary, recently brought an action against a wealthy local landowner, alleging that his long courtship, which had resulted in no proposal, was damaging her reputation and arousing scandal. The landowner, M. de Szabo, appeared in court and admitted that he had paid the widow marked attentions. But, he declared, fate was against his proposing, for he had made "many strenuous efforts" to do so, but all were unsuccessful. The first time "he was just on the point," when he happened to tread on the tail of the lady's pet dog, which upset him so that he was unable to continue. Next time he meant to let nothing interfere with the event, and in order to impress the object of his adoration drove up in grand style with four horses. But turning a corner, the carriage upset, and the unfortunate lover plunged head foremost in a pool of dirty water. Undaunted, he made a third and last attempt. Attired in his most gorgeous costume, he started off on his way to the widow's house. On the way, however, he passed under a ladder, a very unlucky thing, and a painter upset a pot of green paint over him. After telling his tragic story the Hungarian gentleman pathetically exclaimed: "So you see, gentlemen, that fate is against me". His statements were proved, and amid much laughter M. de Szabo left the court "without a stain on his character." Singular Austrian Law. A few days ago the murderer of Mr. Reid, the Paisley man who mysteriously disappeared from Heidelberg last July, having been arrested in Austria, was tried at Feldkirch and was convicted and sentenced to 20 years imprisonment. The case illustrates a singularity of the Austrian criminal law. Generally speaking, a premeditated murder is punishable by death in Austria, but in cases where between the time of the murder and the arrest the prisoner has been punished for some other crime a sentence of capital punishment cannot be passed upon him. In this case the murderer had served a week's imprisonment for petty theft about January of this year, and to this circumstance alone he is indebted for his life. Clever Trick of Press Gang. Desperate means were sometimes resorted to in order to get men for British warships. A chronicler writes that in the year 1738 "a fleet of ships, being required immediately to be manned, the press gangs placed a live turkey on the top of the monument, which, drawing together a great number of idle people, they had the opportunity of selecting as many men as answered the purpose of their intended scheme." The scene so enraged citizen that he fired a shot at the bird, "which occasioned it to fly away." But the mischief had been done. In Boston. "The Boston restaurants even give their favorite dishes classical names." "For instance?" "I heard a man asking for a Plato brown breed." Homeopathy. "Why did you divorce your first wife?"

FRUIT INSTEAD OF DRUGS Remedial Qualities May Be Preserved by Home Manufacture. The remedial properties of berries, all of which are of great value in different diseases, may be preserved through the home manufacture of cordials, shrubs, vinegar, etc., and by drying, in which state they are to be steepeed, strained, and the water used as needed. Cherries, greengage plums, peaches and apricots share in this value with the berries. Grapes are second only to figs for use in disorders which arise from a torpid or congested state of the intestines. Health depends so largely upon the regularity of the functions of the bowels that attention to them is of the utmost importance. An excellent fig preparation is an effusion by steeping one ounce of senna in a pint of boiling water; select one pound of plump, dried figs, and, having placed them in a layer in an earthen dish, pour over them the well-steeped and strained senna tea. Place this in a moderate oven and allow them to remain until the fruit has entirely absorbed the liquid. Put this in a closed jar, and for use, one fig eaten on retiring is a dose for any ordinary case of constipation. Pineapple, while of especial worth in some diseases when taken with other food, should never be eaten alone, as, failing anything else to work upon, its acid attacks the lining of the stomach itself. It is claimed that it has an especial value in certain forms of dyspepsia and in diphtheria, as its juices will cut away mucus that nothing else can remove. All fruits, however, do not affect all persons alike. One should seek to know what is suitable in his own case, and not eat fruits merely because somebody has told him it is "good for him." Owing frequently to idiosyncrasies, as well as to certain physical conditions, fruits are often the worst things one can eat. Each person must be "a law unto himself" in this matter.—The Commoner. THE BUTTER BILLS. Two Ways in Which They Can Be Materially Decreased. A thrifty housewife declares that her butter bills have fallen off one-quarter since she began serving her butter in the form of butterballs. Apart from the economy of the thing, there is no question as to the comparative daintiness and attractiveness of serving butter in one wholesale lump, and in a collection of dainty, symmetrical balls. Abroad, where fresh, unsalted butter is served as a matter of course, it generally comes on the table in a sequence of little dabs or a long, shallow roll. People who have acquired the fresh butter taste find it hard to go back to the salty product of the American creamery, and there is no reason why they should provided there is some one in the family with sufficient leisure to make a little butter two or three times a week. A quart of double cream will make nearly a pound of butter, and any child with strength enough to use a rotary beater can do the rest. Witnessed Marriage from Afar. Getting a man to witness a marriage ceremony at long distance by looking through two windows and across an area between adjacent buildings is a rather novel way of obtaining a witness, but it served the purpose at Portland, Ore., recently of legally and securely tying the matrimonial knot that made Manuel Pires and Grace Sophia Schuster one. The ceremony was performed in the law office of Justice Waldemar Seton, on the third floor of the Commercial building. W. W. Espey, a real estate agent, was at work at his desk across the area and Justice Seton asked him to look across while he made the couple one. The mother of the bride was the other witness. When the knot had been tied Espey noted that the bridegroom failed to kiss the bride. "Hi, there, young man!" he shouted across the area; "you forgot to kiss the bride." "She won't hold still long enough," shouted back the bridegroom. Then Judge Seton brought the marriage certificate around to Espey and secured his signature. Practical Women's Club. In Watertown, Mass., the Woman's club, through its forestry committee, is paying the expenses and managing the business of a flourishing farm garden, where 40 children are cultivating plots of ground varying from 9 feet by 13 to 9 feet by 30, raising not only vegetables, which they can do anything they like with, but several of the more popular flowers. The classes meet twice a week for an hour each, and if a pupil is absent a substitute is sent.

TROUBLE IN CUBA INSURRECTIONISTS CAPTURE AN IMPORTANT TOWN. AUTHORITIES NOT SCARED Town of San Luis Captured by Machete Charge.-Other Provinces Threatened.-Statement of General Rodriguez. Havana.-Pino Guerrera, the leader of the insurgents in Pinar del Río, captured San Luis, an important town a short distance west of the city of Pinar del Río, Wednesday, after a desperate fight with the rurales who garrisoned the place. It is reported that the casualties were heavy for the number of men engaged, being fifteen killed and twice that number wounded. Guerrera had nearly 500 men engaged in the attack, while the government forces numbered less than 100. Reports say the town was captured by a desperate machete charge. The rurales were made prisoners. At the palace there was a disposition to minimize the importance of the insurgents' success at San Luis, the statement being made that while the insurgents were in possession of the town, the rural guards in their quarters were still holding out. The agent of the Western railway at San Luis station, which is a mile from the town, reports that the town has been taken by insurgents, who have surrounded the station. The agent believes the number of killed and injured was small. The fighting was quickly over. The garrison of San Luis is known to number less than fifty. The population of the town is 5,000. The rebel forces are reported to have scored a victory shortly before daylight Wednesday morning, when a force under Pino Durra attacked the rurales' outposts at Pinar del Rio and drove them back toward the city. The insurgents did not follow up their advantage, as they are reported to be awaiting reinforcements, but a concentrated attack on the small force of loyal troops at Pinar del Rio is expected at any hour. Aid is being rushed the government forces from Havana. Former Governor Louis Perez of Pinar del Rio joined the insurgents. Practically all the inhabitants of the town of Aguacate have declared themselves in insurrection. A new party of fifty insurgents appeared to-day at Santa Cruz del Norte, Havana province. A dispatch from Rancho Velez, province of Santa Clara, says that a band of insurgents has been organized there under Colonel Reinos and it is believed that Mendieta, former congressman, is with them. General Rodriguez, commander of the rural guard, after relating the incidents of the day, said to the Associated Press: "You can tell American people that Cuba is entirely competent to cope with the insurrection. The food of rumors in all directions about the organization of insurrectionary bands in great numbers are not borne out by our reports, or, so far as can be learned, by the facts. The result of the encounter at San Luis is still not known definitely, but it is known that we inflicted some losses on the enemy in that vicinity. The much talked of movement in Santa Clara province has not been encountered, and no insurrectionists have been seen there by our forces." ANNUAL LABOR DAY. Governor McDonald Sets the Date on September 3d. Denver.—The following is the governor's Labor Day proclamation: "The commonwealth of Colorado is to-day enjoying unsurpassed peace, progress and prosperity, and it is most proper and necessary for us to acknowledge our thanks to Almighty God for His blessing upon the state and its people during the past two years. With this idea uppermost in our minds and most cherished in our hearts, let us all as participants in the honest labor of the world join heartily in the celebration of September 3, 1906, as Labor Day. "Pursuant to law and custom I, Jesse F. McDonald, governor of the state of Colorado, do hereby proclaim the said day to be a legal holiday, and do call upon all citizens to cease their regular occupations and set apart the entire day for public demonstrations and fitting amusements. Thus we will proclaim to all mankind that God in His wisdom has put into the hearts of men and women among employers and employed in Colorado to dwell together more nearly as followers of the Golden Rule than ever before in the history of our commonwealth. "The husbandman has been abundantly blessed, the toller in all walks of life has been more steadily employed at satisfactory hours and wages than for many years, the employer has conducted his business more fairly and generously, new industries have brought among us new armies of well paid men and women, and Colorado's farms, fields, factories, towns and people to-day joyously cry aloud to all the world that we are a law-abiding, remarkably prosperous people, fair dealing as between man and man. "In testimony whereof I have hereunto set my hand and caused the great seal of state to be affixed, at Denver, this 21st day of August, A. D. 1906. "JESSE F. McDONALD. "By the Governor, attest: "JAMES COWIE, "Secretary of State." General Brown for Senator. Lincoln, Neb.-In a strenuous session of twelve hours Wednesday the Nebraska Republican state convention nominated a ticket headed by Attorney General Norris Brown for United States senator and adopted a platform which is in some respects a radical departure from past party declarations, in that it demands a "new deal" in the levying of railroad taxes and for rate regulation, and commits the party to the direct primary method of nominating officers. Perseverance Not Eneugm. W. H. Pigg, who has started an elk ranch at Freshwater, Colo., was showing his herd of elk to a party of eastern capitalists. "I am sure you will succeed in this venture, Pigg," said a broker. "You are a persevering man and perseverance always brings success." Mr. Pigg laughed. "I am persevering," he admitted, "and I believe in perseverance. At the same time I don't rate it as high, sir, as you do. Perseverance without intelligence is nothing. A hen can sit a year on a china egg, but there will be no results." Secret. "So you are a social leader in the scintillating set at Newport?" interrogated the bold stranger. "Yes," replied the woman with the diamond dog collar, "and I am proud of it." "I dare say you are. But tell me why it is the smart set does not entertain any more baboons at luncheon?" "Sh! We discovered that the baboons were acting as reporters for Gusher's Topics."

In appreciation of the extreme hospitality extended to Prince Henry of Prussia, the Emperor's brother, in New York when Hermann Ridder, editor of the Staats Zeitung, entertained him at a magnificent banquet. Mr. Ridder was recently invited to breakfast at Wilhelmsohe. After being presented to Emperor William by the American ambassador, Mr. Tower, the Emperor conversed with Mr. Ridder on various subjects, the ethics of journalism forming one of the topics. The Kalser's distinction of Mr. Ridder excited general comment on the favoritism accorded to American journalists, in view of his majesty's recent caustic references to German journalists. It was at Mr. Ridder's dinner to Prince Henry that the latter quoted his imperial brother's reminder to treat American journalists with respect, as they ranked with commanding generals.

I used the Cuticura Remedies, and was entirely cured. I am a practicing physician, and very often prescribe Cuticura Resolvent and Cuticura Soap in cases of eczema, and they have cured where other formulas have failed. I am not in the habit of endorsing patent medicines, but when I find remedies possessing true merit, such as the Cuticura Remedies do, I am broad-minded enough to proclaim their virtues to the world. I have been practicing medicine for sixteen years, and must say I find your Remedies A No. 1. You are at liberty to publish this letter. G. M. Fisher, M. D., Big Pool, Md., May 24, 1905." Suffered for "White Lie." Suffered for White Lie. Is a white lie ever justified? That at least some people believe it has no excuse is proved by the following tale: An ancient rabbi came to a city where all the people were truthful, married one of the inhabitants, had two children and prospered. One day a neighbor called when the rabbi's wife was washing her head, and the rabbi, going to the door, was seized by false modesty and said that she had gone out. Thereupon both of his children died, and, as no one died in that city before reaching old age, the neighbors made inquiries, the rabbi confessed what he had done, and was ordered to leave the city immediately. Butler's Stolen Fee. The late Hon. Joseph Q. Hoyt, formerly of Boston, when a lad attended a circus and his silver watch was stolen. The supposed thief was arrested, and was defended by Benjamin F. Butler, who proved he did not take the watch, and never was at the circus. During the civil war Hoyt was introduced to Butler at a dinner at the Astor house, in New York, and the latter remarked: "This is the first time I have had the pleasure of meeting you." "Oh, no!" said Hoyt, who then related the circus incident. "Was that you, Hoyt?" asked Butler, and, being answered in the affirmative, Butler laughed and said: "That was an awful good watch, Hoyt. That is all I got for defending the thief." MORE THAN MONEY. A Minister Talks About Grape-Nuts. "My first stomach trouble began back in 1895," writes a minister in Nebr., "resulting from hasty eating and eating too much. I found no relief from medicine and grew so bad that all food gave me great distress. "It was that sore, gnawing, hungry feeling in my stomach that was so distressing and I became a sick man. Grape-Nuts was recommended as a food that could be easily digested. "Leaving the old diet that had given me so much trouble, I began to eat Grape-Nuts with a little cream and sugar. The change effected in 24 hours was truly remarkable, and in a few weeks I was back to health again. "My work as a minister calls me away from home a great deal, and recently I drifted back to fat meat and indigestible foods, which put me again on the sick list. "So I went back to Grape-Nuts and cream and in four days I was put right again. The old dull headaches are gone, stomach comfortable, head clear, and it is a delight to pursue my studies and work. "Grape-Nuts food is worth more than money to me, and I hope this may induce some sufferer to follow the same course I have." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich. "There's a reason."

The New England Lime company, of Winstead, Conn., asserts that it is the first to introduce gas as fuel for lime burning. The method is pronounced an entire success. The growing scarcity of wood fuel led to the discovery of gas as a substitute for wood, and the company no longer considers the gas method an experiment. The efficacy and reliability of gas have been demonstrated beyond a doubt. Had it been impossible to find a substitute for wood, said a member of the company, it would have meant the restriction and perhaps the total abandonment of the business. Gas fires are absolutely clean at all times—no clinkers and no cinders—and the lime produced is much whiter than that burned by wood. Gas also produces a more intense heat, and consequently increases the capacity of the kilns. The daily output at the company's kilns is increased from 80 barrels per kiln to 100 barrels, or a total of 700 barrels daily. How Emperor William Is Battling Against a Dangerous Heredity. Emperor William's father died of cancer of the throat. Emperor William himself had infantile nasal pains had to struggle with BABY infirmities. It has been whispered that he himself is troubled with the same malady which carried off his father. Royal blood is unfortunately most generally deteriorated blood. Emperor William knows this as well as anybody, and is doing his best to eradicate the bad blood from himself and his family by the adoption of simple life principles. The visit of a countryman of his to battle Creek, Michigan, while in this country, visiting the World's Fair in Chicago in 1893, Emperor William became acquainted with the Battle Creek idea of simple living and has to a large extent adopted the methods in his family. His wife and children live the simple life and take Battle Creek light baths. Their uncle, King Edward, also has these baths installed in his Windsor and Buckingham Palaces for the use of himself and Queen Alexandra. Among other things GOOD HEALTH, the best health journal in the world, tells about the Battle Creek idea and the simple life. Every number is brimful of up-to-date ideas. Sample copy 10 cents.

USE THE BEST FAULTLESS STARCH FOR LAUNDRY WORK FOR SHIRTS COLLARS CUFFS AND FINE LINEN THE LAXATIVE OF KNOWN QUALITY There are two classes of remedies; those of known quality and which are permanently beneficial in effect, acting gently, in harmony with nature, when nature needs assistance; and another class, composed of preparations of unknown, uncertain and inferior character, acting temporarily, but injuriously, as a result of forcing the natural functions unnecessarily. One of the most exceptional of the remedies of known quality and excellence is the ever pleasant Syrup of Figs, manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., which represents the active principles of plants, known to act most beneficially, in a pleasant syrup, in which the wholesome Californian blue figs are used to contribute their rich, yet delicate, fruity flavor. It is the remedy of all remedies to sweeten and refresh and cleanse the system gently and naturally, and to assist one in overcoming constipation and the many ills resulting therefrom. Its active principles and quality are known to physicians generally, and the remedy has therefore met with their approval, as well as with the favor of many millions of well informed persons who know of their own personal knowledge and from actual experience that it is a most excellent laxative remedy. We do not claim that it will cure all manner of ills, but recommend it for what it really represents, a laxative remedy of known quality and excellence, containing nothing of an objectionable or injurious character. There are two classes of purchasers; those who are informed as to the quality of what they buy and the reasons for the excellence of articles of exceptional merit, and who do not lack courage to go elsewhere when a dealer offers an imitation of any well known article; but, unfortunately, there are some people who do not know, and who allow themselves to be imposed upon. They cannot expect its beneficial effects if they do not get the genuine remedy. To the credit of the druggists of the United States be it said that nearly all of them value their reputation for professional integrity and the good will of their customers too highly to offer imitations of the Genuine-Syrup of Figs manufactured by the California Fig Syrup Co., and in order to buy the genuine article and to get its beneficial effects, one has only to note, when purchasing, the full name of the Company—California Fig Syrup Co.—plainly printed on the front of every package.

White gowns, white shoes, white hats and veils, and, shall we say it—even white faces, for no longer is the beaming face of old Sol courted for that delicious tan tint erstwhile so popular. Much as I dislike the lily whiteness, it nevertheless is true that it is not considered correct at this season of the year to have more than the faintest tinge of color in the cheeks. And the ultra-fashionable woman exploits a complexion of ivory, dusted with pearl powder. It is not expected that women shall be quite reasonable, and so no one—unless it be an unregenerate man—will be surprised when I say that the very latest fad is white mourning. Of course this is not really a novelty. The women mourn in white in at least one European capital, but in France it will be a very real change, for there the robes of sombre crepe hold rigid sway. But this new idea of white mourning comes from Paris, and it is hard to say just at present whether the idea will obtain favor with the women who control the fashions, but a famous dressmaker is strongly advocating the innovation, and already pure white crepe gowns, accompanied by pure white crepe toques, with long veils hanging at the back, are to be seen. But to turn from so somber a subject. Veils are playing a very important role in the world of dress this summer. They are long, extremely voluminous, and of every possible that. The very latest novelty is a Turkish arrangement of lengths of chiffon-tulle. Two distinct veils are worn, one to cover the hat and forehead and the other the lower part of the face from the nose down. It is a truly hideous arrangement, but a perfect disguise. Your best friend would not recognize you in a "Newport veil." Tailored costumes in a soft rose frish linen are much fancied this season and the biscuit and brown linens have a great vogue. As to Hats, Gloves and Neckwear As to the dress accessories for fall wear there are several striking innovations. One which promises to meet with success is the Peter Pan hat. During the summer this shape found much favor in straw, and now it is to take its place as a winter article. The Peter Pan is somewhat similar to a Scotch cap, being long and narrow, with a dent in the crown. These hats for winter wear will be of felt or velvet, although other material may be used. For trimming wings T are in favor and quilts will also be used. Silk gloves are unquestionably going to be worn very much this winter, especially for evening wear, which of course means long gloves. Black and white will be the favorite colors, although the light colors will be in deed. The Voile Dress. The ever faithful blouse is always in favor, and finds a large place in my lady's wardrobe. Three of unusually pretty design are shown in our illustration. They may be copied in any of the dainty thin materials that are to be purchased this summer. Muslin, cotton voile, mercerized lawn, and cambric are all inexpensive and from them and by the aid of a little lace trimming any of these designs may be made. The first is in gray cotton voile spotted with a darker shade. The yoke is composed of horizontal puffs of the voile and cream lace insertion, straps of the insertion coming over the shoulders. The elbow sleeves are gathered up under a band of insertion, and are finished with pleatings of voile. It takes about two and one-half yards of 40 inch wide material to make this blouse, and about three yards of lace insertion. The second blouse shown is in white spotted muslin. The upper part is gauged to form three round puffs, then the center front is gauged just above the bust. The frills of muslin that are carried from the waist back and front over the shoulder is headed by lace insertion. The sleeves are gathered into a deep puckered band with a frill at the back. Materials required: Four yards of muslin 28 inches wide, and two and one-half yards of lace insertion. The third blouse shown is of blue print mercerized lawn. The yoke of lace is cut with deep scallop in front. The lawn for the blouse joins this without fullness. The two frills which join the joke are hemmed at the edge; the upper frill is continued all around the yoke, the under one is carried under the arms. The puffed sleeves have one frill attached; the one that is attached to the yoke falls over this. The elbows are gathered into tight bands finished by ruffles of lawn. Materials: Five yards lawn 28 inches wide, and one-half yard of lace for yoke. The princess yoke will be in favor this fall. It will be made of lace or have a certain amount in its construction. Heavy silk lace is considered particularly good for the purpose, although Venice and Irish will also be used. As to boas and ruffs there is little question that they will again be popular. Maline will probably be the leading material used, both in plain and in small figured effects, and in black, brown and blue more than in any other colors, some of these being dotted with white. But to come back once more to the present, a very handsome volle dress is shown herewith. The skirt is a simple full shape gathered to a shaped yoke; it is trimmed at the foot with two bands of lace insertion. The deep corselet belt is mounted on a Featherbone foundation, and is worn with an embroidered net slip. The smart little bolero is trimmed with a band of lace insertion threaded with ribbon, which is formed into loops and ends each side the front. Beneath this insertion is a frill of the voile; the sleeves are trimmed in the same way, and are finished with deep lace ruffles. Hat of pale blue straw, trimmed with white roses, ostrich tips, and black ribbon velvet. Materials required for the dress: Seven yards 46 inches wide, 12 yards insertion, five yards ribbon, $2\frac{1}{2}$ yards lining silk. Further Irrigation Needed. Chief Justice Fuller was not long ago the guest of a southern gentleman who had a servant named John, famous for his mint julep. Soon after Judge Fuller's arrival John appeared, bearing a tray on which was a long, cool glass, topped with crushed ice and a small tree of mint. With low bows and many smiles he presented it, and watched anxiously while Judge Fuller appreciatively slipped it. "That touch the right spot, sah?" he queried. "It does, John, it does," the judge replied. John disappeared, but was soon recalled by the tinkle of a hand-bell. The glass was now empty. The judge looked up with a twinkle in his eye. "I think I've got anotheroot, John," he said. S&N CARMENT STORE 925-16TH ST. — OPP. JOSLINS A GREAT SACRIFICE SALE During the month of August every summer garment must be sold.

The financial world has surely not hitherto had much startling news to chronicle of Thomas Dinsmore, of Palermo, Kennebec county, Maine, says the American Banker. That gentleman has not surprised the community into throes of admiration by the establishment of hero funds nor the foundation of any libraries. He has not been identified with any huge corporation engaged in cornering the earth, for the earth's good, no doubt, nor has he purchased highly priced works of art and presented them to an ungrateful country that insists upon his paying duty on the gifts. But in a way Mr. Dinsmore seems to have cornered all the praise and gratitude in his locality and he certainly has a monopoly in his particular industry. At present he is engaged busily in presenting new bankbooks showing a five dollar deposit to each new baby which arrives in his community. It will be seen at once that this is not only excellent for the banks and fine for the babies, but it will in all likelihood prevent any appreciable tendency toward race suicide. Some time ago Mr. Dinsmore began the practice of presenting every school graduate with a new bankbook and one dollar. The good work of this gentleman is necessarily limited, but he has sounded the depths of the country's need. Not by railing against capital and capitalists nor preaching equality and the equal distribution of property will the evil of huge money concentration be remedied. By teaching foresight and judicious saving to the children and inculcating a spirit of desire of possession in the beginning of their education he will do more toward increasing the average wealth of the people than any other project yet put forth. Massachusetts, a fairly conservative state, calculates that its people save on an average 33 cents a week each. The absurdity of such a figure in the face of the extremely high rate of wages is patent to every sensible person. It is high time that the citizens of the country began to realize that more economy, thrift and industry on their part would change the conditions which they consider a danger to the nation. Careful consideration of the subject will show that these qualities are what made the other man's fortune for the most part. Therefore, of vital use to the mental, moral and financial condition of the coming generation is the good work Mr. Dinsmore is doing in Malue among children. Teach them that a bankbook is a sign of respectability. Decrease the tendency to squander the whole of the income on luxuries without regard to future needs and possible wants, and the socialistic as well as the monetary conditions of the country will show an immediate improvement. AT LEAST ONE IMPROVEMENT. Quality Had Been Added To, If Quantity Was Shy. Joel Perkins was one of the first settlers in the plantation of Milton, Oxford county, Me. Taking up a section of wild land, he built himself a cabin, and each season cleared a small patch and raised a fair crop of grain and potatoes. Other settlers came in around him, and he was able from time to time to sell them a portion of his surplus crop, trusting them until they could pay. Having no account books, he marked with chalk on his cabin door what they owed him. After several years he thought he could afford to take a wife, and, finding a comely lass in the neighboring town of Bethel, he married her and took her home. While Joel was at work in the fields his wife spent the time cleaning up the house. One night, on his return, she called his attention to what she had done, especially to the inside of the cabin door. "Oh, Mary!" he cried, "you have ribbed out all my accounts again the neighbors, and I don't know what I shall do!" "Oh, never mind, Joel," she said, "you can mark it all down again." He made no reply, but, taking a piece of chalk, covered the door once more with figures and, with a sigh, sat down. "There, Joel," exclaimed Mary, "I knew you could do it, and you have, haven't you?" "Well, Mary, I don't know as I have writ down as much as I had before, but I know one thing. It's agin a darned sight better men!" Robespierre's Change of Heart Robesplierre, of the French revolution, the man who was destined to deluge France with blood, was, not long before his frightful career of power began, one of the most strenuous opponents of capital punishment. While he was still an obscure advocate at his native Arras he threw up an appointment because of his opposition to this form of penalty. And just when his star was in the ascendant he boldly harangued the national assembly to prove "that the punishment of death is essentially unjust, that it has no tendency to repress crimes, and that it multiplies offenses much more than it diminishes them." Agreed. "Father," cried the stage-struck youth, "you must let muh choose me own course. I feel that I was born for the boards." "Well, gosh all hemlock!" answered the father, "ain't I tryin' ter make a carpenter of ye?" DO YOU KNOW THAT The Colorado Statesman Is Now Prepared To Do All Kinds of Job Printing?
