THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RACE COUNTRY PARTY INDUSTRIAL EDUCATION And Community growth Receives a Boost at Hands of Mothers' League in Columbia Tenn. Children Parade Principal Streets and Patriotic Airs were sung. INDUSTRIAL EDUC And Community growth Recreation Mothers' League in Columbia Principal Streets and Park Columbia, Tenn., Nov. 5.—Columbia is the former seat of Tennessee aristocracy. The wealth and learning of the commonwealth used to be centered here before Nashville became its abiding place. But the spirit still lives in Columbia. The "white folks have it" and "the Negroes too." The colored people scattered throughout Tennessee are glad to claim Columbia as their home. They are in the main among the most prosperous and intelligent people of the state. They are proud. They want to keep on growing. This spirit gave birth to the mothers' scholo improvement leagues, began at Columbia in the hope that their influence might be felt not only here but throughout the entire state of Tennessee. The good men and women of the city are at work as never before and they are succeeding. They are getting results. This was evident from the large concourse of people, young and old, who joined in the demonstration for the cause of education this morning and the enthusiasm with which they received the speakers and their hearty appreciation of the wholesome advice given throughout the addresses. It was also seen in the large amount of money contributed. Prof. H. L. Keith of Nashville has been known for a long time as an advocate of patriotism being taught Negro school children more largely. The teachers of Columbia and Maury county agree most heartily with his view. Every pupil and teacher in the long line carried an American flag unfurled to the breezes. This line of march was from the high school through the business section to the court house where a program of patriotic airs was rendered which literally surprised the court house inhabitants as much as it pleased them. Dr. T. W. Stephens was master of ceremonies. He introduced Mr. Keith who delivered a very practical and common sense address. He began by saying, "I shall not indulge in fine phases and expressions about unknown things. I prefer rather to address you in the simplest words and the plainest sort of manner about the things of which you have some knowledge and which we have come to emphasize." He was frank in his criticism and agreeable in his remarks praising the members of the oranization, the teachers, citizens and school children for what they are doing for self-advancement. Finally, he said, "We cannot incur a more serious loss than our loss of faith in each other or in mankind. Preserve your faith in man and so act and so live that his faith in you may also be assured for the good it may do and the happiness it may bring to us in all phases of human activity." Hon. A. N. Johnson is a new spirit in the business life of Tennessee colored people. He has a national reputation as one of the race's most successful business men and the leading man in the profession of embalming. He has seen service in the Alabama political arena, has been a prominent and influential member of more than one national Republican convention. Mr. Johnson spoke for half an hour on education, business and industry. The points emphasized by the speakers together may be summed up as follows: The inefficient, idle, ignorant Negro will yield to the temptation and seize the opportunity to commit crime for that reason he is a menace to the law-abiding and better element of the race. Every community should rid itself of this class. It should be done by education when possible, otherwise the best colored people should join hands with the best white people and handle the situation as the case may merit. It is better to build school houses than jails. The colored people should provide school houses for themselves when they cannot get them otherwise. Representative white people are showing a disposition to help us by lending their moral influence and giving their means in order to encourage us in our efforts for self-advancement. Agriculture was emphasized as well as the imperative need of hard and constant work in behalf of the great mass of Tennessee Negroes in order to fit them for the occupation for which they are naturally and by opportunily qualified.—West Virginia Advocate. For Inflammatory Rheumatism. Use one pint of tanners' oil, one pint spirits of turpentine, one ounce of oil of spike, put in a stone jug and shake together; then add one ounce of vitriol one drop at a time and shake between every drop. Rub the inflamed parts at least half an hour. Bandage warmly with flannel. ALBUQUERQUE NEWS Carl Reynolds is quite sick with typhoid fever. T. J. Dunlap left Sunday for Las Vegas. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Hall entertained at a three course dinner last Sunday. Those present were: Rev. F. H. Wilkins and Mr. and Mrs. Mason. The A. M. E. Church will have a free will offering on Thanksgiving Day, there will also be religious services and a fine musical program in the evening. H. W. Bryant, one of our well known young men, has returned after an absence of several weeks accompanied by an intelligent and pretty bride to grace his newly fitted home. Mr. and Mrs Bryant will be a fine asset to the social circle of our city. Many congratulations to the happy wedded couple. Mrs. Wm. Campbell, one of our most quiet and peaceful citizens and a lady who stands well in church and religious work, shot and seriously wounded a Mrs. Charles Edwards in this city last Mouday. Jealousy is said to be the cause. It is claimed by Mrs. Campbell, that Mrs. Edwards had alienated her husband's affections and had caused them to seperate. Mrs. Edwards has not made any statement yet. The preliminary trial has not been held. The Y. M. S. club gave a swell reception last Monday evening at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. T. O. Mason, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. H. W. Bryant, the bride and groom's table was spread for forty people. A four course lunch was served and a pleasant evening was spent. Toasts were made by Rev. J. W. Rogers, Rev. F. H. Wilkins and ye humble correspondent. H. Bramlett acted as toastmaster. Mr. Bryant is a charter member of the club. The Constitutional convention had taken up the question of the seperati schools for Negro children but upon hearing the long distant telephoning, that the Negroes of Albuquerque were desirous of being heard before the question was passed upon, moved to adjourn from Friday afternoon until Monday at 2 p. m. T. O. Mason and Rev. J. W. Rodgers represented the colored voters in the committee at Santa Fe. The result was, the segregation of races was strangled in the committee room, although the educational committee and the Republicans in their caucus had endorsed the segregation movement. The vote in the conven- tion stands 29 Democrats to 71 Republicans, yet with this Republican majority, the Republicans sought to throw the Negro over board for a few promised votes in a Democratic district. The colored committee is entitled to much credit for what they accomplished under such circumstances yet it is hard to guess what the future legislatures will do with the segregation subject. COLORADO CHAMPION FEARS Lowell, Mass. Nov. 17.—Jack Johnson, champion heavyweight pugilist of the world, has quit, temporarily at least. He has met his match and he is afraid. He is going home to his mammy in Chicago and try to recover from the "punch" which has shaken his memory and left him whipped for the time being. The "punch" came last Saturday night at Lawrence, he says. It was after the show and he was at the hotel with his wife, when suddenly every thing went blank. He made the announcement here after the performance of the burlesque company in which he is in a boxing sketch. He thinks it is nervous prostration, and so serious, that he was asked has wife to hide his revolver so he can't shoot himself. He says he will quit the show business and will take the first train for Chicago. NEGRO COLLEGE MEN. Mr. Booker T. Washington Finds Them Rather Trying Sometimes. In discussing his own race, Booker T. Washington says in The World's Work: "Among the most trying ones with whom I come in contact are the persons who have been educated in books to the extent that they are able upon every occasion to quote a phrase or a sentiment from Shakespeare, Milton, Cicero or some other great writer. "In college they studied problems and solved them on paper. But these problems had already been solved by some one else and all that they had to do was to learn the answers. They had never faced any unsolved problems in college and all that they had learned had not taught them the patience and persistence which alone solve real problems. "I remember hearing this fact illustrated in a very apt way by a colored minister some years ago. After great sacrifice and effort he had constructed in the South a building to be used for the purpose of sheltering orphans and aged colored women. After this minister had succeeded in getting his building constructed and paid for a young colored man came to inspect it and at once began pointing out the defects in the building. "The minister listened patiently for some time and then turning to the young man he said: "'My friend, you have an advantage over me.' Then he paused and looked at the young man and the young man looked inquiringly at the minister, who continued; 'I am not able to find fault with any building which you have constructed.'" RACE NEWS GATHERED FROM VARIOUS SOURCES There are 14,397 names of Negroes on the United States pay roll. The total salaries aggregate $8,255,761 yearly. The highest salary paid an Afro-American is received by the Envoy Extraordinary and Minister Plenipotentiary of the United States at Hayti' whose salary is $10,000 per annum. A number of government officials receive from $2,500 to $5,000 per year. Clerks are paid from $900 to $1,800. Trenton, N. J., Nov. 9.—Simeon Saunders, farmer for the New Children's Home Society, is establishing quite a reputation as a celery dealer. During the month of October he sold $1,308 worth of celery aside from his other duties at the institution, such as carting, taking care of the cows, etc. He has been complimented on all sides. Montgomery, Ala., Nov. 1.—The Alabama Penny Savings Bank, located in Montgomery, has, during the eight months that it has been in operation, done a business of $465,000, and the business of this bank is growing every month. While the outside world hears little of Montgomery, still progress is being made. Nineteen-twentieths of the persons employed as clerks and letter carriers in the Montgomery post office are Negroes. This does not look as if they were going backward in regard to political positions. Youngstown, Ohio, November 2—Robert Wonwood a Negro, who came here recently from Chicago, and now resides just south of the city, is turning white slowly but surely. In Chicago he worked in a fertilizer works, and the effects of the fumes ne breathed caused white blotches to start out on him, which are spreading over his entire body. He is in the best of health and seems happy over the prospect of becoming a "white man." Smithfield, Va.—The colored people have awakened to the importance of schools. A deal is about consummated by which a lot of two acres in the town of Smithfield passes into the hands of colored people, at a cost of $1,000. Money for the first payment has been raised, $250, balance one, two and three years. They will now proceed to erect a school building. The colored Educational Board, of Smithfield and vicinity, is awake and hard at work. Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 1.—William Williams, colored, is in jail here today charge with swindling by a "cure" for blindness. His remedy consisted in driving a tack into the back portion of a blind man's skull, and charging $2.50 for the operation. Robert Ward, the victim, told the police court judge that the tack process was not very painful, but that taking the $2.50 "hurt considerable." Baltimore, Md., Nov. 9.—The colored citizens here are still rejoicing over the decision of Judge Thomas J. Morris, by which the validity of the Fifteenth Amendment and the right of the colored citizens to an untrammeled ballot were sustained. Just as soon as the excitement incident to the Congressional elections is over the Democrats will prepare to take the case to the United States Supreme Court for final adjudication. According to Collector of the Port W. F. Stone, the Republican organization of this State is prepared to meet the issue by again arguing the case in the highest tribunal in the land. As Judge Morris has been seldom reversed, there is every probability that the highest court in the land will sustain his decision, and thus at last settle the question of race disfranchisement. This will mean that there will have to be a decided modification in the anti-Negro suffrage laws of the South. James L. Smith, a colored peddler at Sistersville is rewarded for his heroic saving of Francis R. Hetrick, aged 2, from burning to death, Oct. 28, 1900. Breaking away from men who tried to restrain him, Smith crawled through a door, under a blaze of heat and smoke and occasional flames, and into the hall of a burning cottage and then entered the living room which was so dense with smoke that it could not be entered through the windows, found the child and dragging it outside collapsed. He soon revived. His hands, and arms and the back of his head were burned, disabling him two days. The child was uninjured. The Hero Commission awards Smith a silver medal and a $1,000 to purchase a farm.

Denver.—For the first time im the history of Colorado, buyers from both the East and the Pacific coast; are bidding for live stock in the western and northwestern parts of Colorado. Heretofore stock growers of Colorado had but one market, the East. The growth of population in the West has forced the Pacific coast states to come a little farther east each year in search of their food supply. Utah and other states west of here have been benefited, and now Colorado, the most easterly state from which it is pos- sible for the Pacific coast to obtain a large supply of livestock, is being invaded by Western buyers.

RALPH JOHNSTONE, WORLD-FA MOUS, MEETS HIS DEATH IN DENVER. FALLS FULLY 300 FEET HOLDER OF WORLD'S ALTITUDE RECORD OF 9,714 FEET—WAS 30 YEARS OLD. Denver.—Trapped in the wire trusses and frame work of his Wright biplane, Ralph Johnstone, 30 years old, America's most daring aviator, and the birdman who held the world's altitude record of 9,714 feet, made a few days ago at Belmont park, New York, fell like a meteor to his death at 4:07 p. m. Thursday at Overland park before the horror-struck gaze of thousands of spectators. He is the thirtieth victim of the lure of the air since Sept. 17, 1908, and the first expert aviator to be killed in America. Johnstone fell probably 300 feet, landing just outside the fench about 200 yards south of the northeast corner of Overland park grounds with the wrecked machine on top of him. While a score of bystanders were extricating him from the debris, he was heard to groan twice. He was unconscious Five minutes later he was pronounced dead by half a dozen physicians. An examination at the morgue showed that Johnstone had sustained a broken neck. Nearly all his ribs were broken in the shock of his fall, and his left leg was found to be badly fractured above the knee, where the broken bone had pierced the flesh and clothing. The accident was caused by the collapse of the left lower plane just as Johnstone, from a height of between 500 and 600 feet, was making a sensational spiral descent. In making two complete turns, he had descended about half way. When facing north and continuing his spiral curve downward from left to right, he was seen, at a height of about 300 feet, to flex his left planes strongly so that the wings might grip the air and force that side of the biplane upward in order to make a sharp turn. At this juncture, the lower left plane collapsed; the upper left plane buckled under the double stress laid upon it, and in a flash the machine was seen to turn on its edge. Like a thunderbolt it shot earthward, its momentum, probably 30 miles an hour, causing the machine to describe the parabolic curve of a meteor. That many were not killed or injured in the crash is due to the fact that the eyes of the thousands of spectators immediately under the wrecked aeroplane were watching intently the thrilling aerial maneuvers. A cry rose from a thousand throats as the machine was seen to collapse. In two seconds a space 100 feet square had been cleared by fleeing humanity, and two seconds later the machine lay on the earth, spattered with the blood of its driver. Hardly had the wrecked machine ceased its quivering and the body of the broken and bruised aviator ceased to breathe before a throng of ghoulish souvenir-hunters began fighting for blood-stained splinters of the wreckage. Pieces of canvas were ripped off the planes, wires were cut and in a few minutes nearly every movable fragment or splinter was taken away as mementos of Johnstone's death. The statements of bystanders differ. Some maintain that Johnstone, when he found he had lost control of his machine, climbed out of his seat in an effort to break the fall by tilting the other planes at such an angle as to cause the machine to glide downwards. Others say that Johnstone did not leave his seat; he was thrown out when the aeroplane tipped over on its side. W. C. Brookins, one of the aviators, who was found standing disconsolately with one foot resting on the wrecked machine, flatly denied the reports of Johnstone losing the control of his machine. "He didn't lose any control of his machine—not Johnstone," said Brookins. "The machine collapsed, and that is all there is to it." Verdict After 36 Years. New York.—Thirty-six years after a suit was begun against the Mutual Life Insurance Company of Hartford, Conn., a verdict against it was rendered here by a jury in the Supreme Court. Oscar Adler, a glove manufacturer, who had insured his life for $7,500, died in 1876, but the company refused to pay the policies, contending that Adler had committed suicide. San Francisco's Population. Washington.—The population of San Francisco is 416,912, according to the thirteenth census. This is an increase of 74,130, or 21.6 per cent over 342, 782 in 1900. In connection with the announcement of the population of San Francisco, the director of the census said the original returns contained 420,234 names, but of these, on investigation by the Census Bureau, 3,322 were eliminated. There was found no evidence of intentional fraud on the part of the enumerators.

In deal with the elements over which ophets deal with the people, whom we part; yet the weather men get such is badly needed to warn the unseizzzards. The people themselves do though there are always outward signs of their elections. The results of the reelection victors as they are to the vanguard been scientifically studied, from a purpoint, the outcome ought to have a selection. It was no accident that gave West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Colorado a bunch. Some sentiment was at hand and consequently throughout the country pertained with scientific certainty, and once, the people on all sides might have the people some time to absorb a point is often followed by its acceptance principles which the people rejected in go are now coming to the front with the belief that the will of the full corporate interests. They embody been literally swallowed up and are that intrenched power. They now ranks designed to make the exercise aain. If other unjust and unbearable conditions were floating low in the polls there were no reliable and scientific and foretell results with absolute assurance quite as certain and quite as discern there are signs still floating in the polls yet to come. The fortunate in the recent upheaval need not hurry insurance of fair weather and clear sky have embarked. If signs count far in for a rough passage, and if the people expect it to be handled there places long before they reach port. The weather prophets have got the political wiseacres beaten to a frazzle. The weather man has things worked down to such a scientific basis that he can tell, with a reasonable degree of certainty, what is going to come out of the clouds twenty-four or forty-eight hours before its arrival, but the political prognosticators have no such scientific clinch on telling the way the votes are going to fall, even eight hours ahead of time. The weather men deal with the elements over which they have no control; the political prophets deal with the people, whom they think they know and of whom they are part; yet the weather men get surer results. A scientific political bureau is badly needed to warn the unsuspecting of the approach of political blizzards. The people themselves do not know what they are going to do, although there are always outward signs that point unfailingly to the outcome of their elections. The results of the recent elections are as great a surprise to the victors as they are to the vanquished, yet if the various situations had been scientifically studied, from a purely technical, rather than a partisan standpoint, the outcome ought to have been discernable several days before the election. It was no accident that gave New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, West Virginia, Ohio, Indiana, Colorado and Wyoming to the Democrats, all in a bunch. Some sentiment was at work among the people of these states, and consequently throughout the entire country, which might have been ascertained with scientific certainty, and, if bulletined forty-eight hours in advance, the people on all sides might have been prepared for the shock. It takes the people some time to absorb a political truth, and its defeat at one election is often followed by its acceptance at some subsequent time. Some of the principles which the people rejected in the last presidential election two years ago are now coming to the front with an irresistable rush. They are founded upon the belief that the will of the people has long been perverted by powerful corporate interests. They embrace the belief that many good men have been literally swallowed up and brushed aside by the relentless sweep of that intrenched power. They now find expression in various platform planks designed to make the exercise of the people's will more direct and certain. The overthrow of other unjust and unbearable conditions were long overdue. These storm-clouds were floating low in the political sky before the storm broke, but there were no reliable and scientific prophets to read the signs without bias and foretell results with absolute assurance. But the actions of the people are quite as certain and quite as discernible as the actions of the elements. There are signs still floating in the political firmament that portend other storms yet to come. The fortunate wayfarers who were hatched and housed in the recent upheaval need not hug to their over-confident bosoms the assurance of fair weather and clear sailing for the entire voyage on which they have embarked. If signs count for anything, they are in for anything, they are in for a rough passage, and if they do not handle the ship of state as the people expect it to be handled there will be another crew waiting to take their places long before they reach port.

For the past fifteen years he had exerted a great influence upon general, to the declared welfare of w IN the excitement attendant upon the election we failed to record an occurrence of almost universal interest, which, at any other time, would have aroused the keen sympathy of every one of our readers. It was the sad affliction of that venerable and esteemed old gentleman of wide acquaintance, and familiarly known as Grandfather Clause. Some time during the week preceeding the election he suffered a stroke of paralysis, which the physicians say is liable to prove fatal. He was a sturdy old gentleman of South Carolina stock, we believe. For the past fifteen years or more he had been active in politics, and had exerted a great influence upon the political affairs of the South in general, to the declared welfare of which section he was deeply devoted. During a brief sojourn in Maryland he became engaged in a heated altercation with several colored men, over what the latter impudently assumed to be their constitutional rights, and they had the old gentleman arrested and hauled into the United States district court, upon a charge of assault or some similar trivial offense. The surprising judgment of the court that Grandfather Clause was personally liable for damages to these insignificant colored men because of an alleged offense against the fifteenth amendment to the constitution of the United States, was such a shock to the unsuspecting old gentleman that he collapsed in his seat with a paralytic stroke, from which recovery is extremely doubtful. As sgn as he can be safely removed to Washington he will be carried before the expert physicians of the federal Supreme Court, in the hope that his life may be saved. Grandfather Clause has devoted his entire life to the declared principle that the descendants of creatures who were slaves prior to 1865 have no more right to vote than their ancestors had, and he had though this righteous principle to be universally accepted, regardless of what constitution sticklers might think or assume. If he dies now, when his triumph seemed absolute, the whole South will be in sack cloth and ashes and will curse every kinky-headed colored man whose damnable affrontery contributed to his untimely end.

I BENNETT Present Age Not Less Sordid Than Others It is hard for a man who tries to adhere to the niceties of the English language to comprehend a good deal of the talk he hears nowadays. Of course some of the slang is clever and so expressive as to win ultimate incorporation in the lexicons, while some of it is silly and some loses vogue. The other day I was talking with a friend, a Harvard graduate, who was telling me of having had a run-in with some politician whom my friend disliked and was trying to beat. Cannot anything be done to protect the people from that dangerous weed, poison ivy? I myself have not been a victim, but one of my neighbors and a friend of his have been badly poisoned? On the way home from work one day they cut through a prairie in order to shorten their trip. Coming to a place where the weeds were high, my friends used their hands in making their way and thus happened to touch some poison ivy.

Next Thursday Shorter's, Scott's Central and the People's will hold union Thanksgiving services in the church. Rev. J. N. Wallace will be the preacher.

The usual Thanksgiving service will be held this year at the People's Presbyterian Church and Campbell's A. M. E. Church. There will be two divisions of the service. The Union thought it best to divide the service, in this manner in order to arouse a greater interest in this very important annual Thanksgiving. The Rev. J. N. Wallace will deliver the sermon at the People's Church, while the Rev A. E. Reynolds will deliver the sermon at Campbell's A. M. E. Church. Those churches worshipping at the People's will be Shorter, Central, Scott's and the People's and those worshipping at Campbell's will be Zion, Bethlehem and Campbell's. We urge our people who are members of the above named churches to meet promptly at 11 o'clock. The friends of these churches are urged to attend and make these meetings the best in the history of the Union Thanksgiving service. Our nation generally has been greatly blessed during the past year and this should be a great occasion of rejoicing everywhere and among our people most especially. Their blessings received have outnumbered the lils and high recognition of this boon should be given to Almighty God, the giver of every perfect gift. Special music will be one of the features. THE CARSON CROCKERY COM PANY. Organized September, 1887, under the firm name, John Carson & Co., by John Carson, D. L. Carson and James Brown at 824-828 16th street. In 1893 James Carson bought Mr. Brown's interest and the firm was afterwards known as John Carson & Brother, and remained so until 1903, when D. L. Carson sold his interest to John and James Carson. At this time the firm went into the jobbing business and now has a large force of men on the road and cover all the territory tributary to Denver and carries their surplus retail stock and jobbings goods in two warehouses located on the tracks on Wewatta, between 14th and 15th streets. When the old Symes Block was burned five years ago, the firm was compelled to secure other quarters and through the courtesy of Bennett & Myers had the large store at 15th and Stout streets fitted up especially for a retail and wholesale salesroom, and since then the business has enjoyed a healthy increase from year to year. Wishing to keep abreast of the times, the firm, several months ago, decided on improving the interior of their store and spared no expense to make it one of the most modern and handsomely equipped salesrooms in the Middle West. In order that the public may inspect this beautiful China store they have appointed Saturday, November 19th, from 2:00 to 9:00 p. m. as a "Formal Opening," and will be pleased to meet you. Title.

WOMAN TELLS STORY OF INTENSE SUFFERING At the age of about 40 years, I was attacked with hemorrhage of the kidneys or bladder which continued for several years without a check. I finally took advantage of your generous offer and procured a sample bottle of Swamp-Root. Believing it helped me, I purchased a fifty-cent bottle, which convinced me that it was helping me. Three other bottles cured me. In two or three years, over-work cured my ailment back, but one bottle stopped it. I feel as if I owe my life to you for the great blessing Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root has been to me. I recommend it to all human beings suffering as I was.

Somewhat Indignant The two extra specialists had pounded and sounded him, and felt of his pulse and tapped his frame till he could only lie in a cold perspiration of fear. "Undoubtedly it's a case of appendicitis!" said specialist No. 1, gravely. "Undoubtedly!" assented specialist No. 2. "But would he be able to stand an operation?" pondered No. 1. "Ah. would he?" echoed No. 2. They dug him in the ribs again, and he squealed. "Ah," remarked No. 1, "I think we ought to let him get a bit stronger before we cut into him." "Confound your palaver!" gasped the patient, starting up. "What do you take me for—a cheese?" Easy Marks. "Talk erbout yore easy marks," said Uncle Sillas Geehaw, who had been passing a week in the city, "us rubes can't in it with them air teown chaps."

"Naw, I didn't," answered Uncle Silas, "but I seed a feller peddin' artificial ice—hed th' sign right on his wagon—'i blamed ef th' chumps didn't buy it fer th' real thing, by grass!" The Number. "Yes; ran over in about an hour." "How many?" MORE THAN EVER Increased Capacity for Mental Labor Since Leaving Off Coffee. Many former coffee drinkers who have mental work to perform, day after day, have found a better capacity and greater endurance by using Postum instead of ordinary coffee. An Illinois woman writes: "I had drank coffee for about twenty years, and finally had what the doctor called 'coffee heart.' I was nervous and extremely despondent; had little mental or physical strength left, had kidney trouble and constipation. "The first noticeable benefit derived from the change from coffee to Postum was the natural action of the kidneys and bowels. In two weeks my heart action was greatly improved and my nerves steady. "Then I became less despondent, and the desire to be active again showed proof of renewed physical and mental strength. "I am steadily gaining in physical strength and brain power. I formerly did mental work and had to give it up on account of coffee, but since using Postum I am doing hard mental labor with less fatigue than ever before."

A Thanksgiving Prayer "I beseech you to cease to regret your lack of prosperity. Thank God you have work and struggle before you." —J. D. Rockefeller, Jr. I thank Thee, Lord, That I have not A golden hoard In some safe spot, And don't hold sway In any state Where juries may Investigate. O, I rejoice At this great boon; I lift my voice In thankful tune That from my lack I almost starve, For canvas back I cannot carve. I am so glad Indeed, that I Have never had The cash to buy A palace grand Or castle great Or miles of land For my estate. It is to me A lasting joy, One that shall be Without alloy That I may jump Into the ditch While autos bump By, with the rich. My heart is thrilled With gratitude, My bosom filled With thankful mood, Because I'm sure It now appears, I shall be poor Through all my years! A Turkey That Talked Thanksgiving Story by Reba C. Barkley HE little southern resort looked fair and fresh in the robe of evergreen, with which it defied the autumn. Roses bloomed and birds sang in riotous disregard of the fact that next Thursday would be Thanksgiving. C The "natives" pald scant attention to it, anyway, and the "hotel" population took advantage of the occasion to be more ailing and homesick than common. A tall, old gentleman walked down the street coughing at intervals. He looked at the blue sky and laughing landscape with disapproval, for he was ill and lonely and out of tune with nature. He looked curiously at an old colonial house standing well back from the street; irregular flower beds bloomed at odd places in the grounds, live oaks grew almost anywhere, and merry, beautiful children romped under them. A small boy swung placidly upon the gate. Judge Holcombe stopped a moment to cough, and the small boy disengaged himself from the gate. "I'm sorry you're sick," he said, with grave politeness. "Mother says we must always invite the 'coughers' to come in and rest. There's a bench under the live oak trees and I'll get you a glass of milk or a glass of wine. Every winter the sick folks come to the hotel and they get to like stopping here awfully well. I reckon they are lonesome and homesick." The judge breathed heavily again and the southern gentleman, after the manner of his kind, dropped word for deeds. He took the gaunt old hand in his little warm one and "personally conducted" the visitor through the gate to the nearest bench. "I'll send one of the children for refreshments," he continued comfortably, "and I'll entertain you. It wouldn't be polite to leave you alone." In response to his summons a group of children appeared leading among them a huge gobbler. The bird seemed very much at home and emitted the peculiar cry of his kind. "That turkey can talk," the boy explained. "He's saying, 'Look at me, I'm chosen above all other turkeys for a great day; I'm it.' We can not bear to have our pets killed, but father says that a turkey that's chosen for Thanksgiving is the proudest thing in the world and he'd be disappointed if he didn't get to come to the table." He turned his attention to his sister. "Little sis, please go in and ask mother or mamy to bring out a glass of milk or a glass of wine for this visitor. I didn't go myself for fear he'll run away." The judge presented his right hand limply to the girl (the boy was still clasping his left) and a sudden thrill swept over him. The physical contact of loving, palpitating childhood called to him with the voice of nature. At this juncture a graceful figure carrying a tray appeared upon the walk. Her resemblance to the little girl proclaimed the mother. Her manner was as cordial as the boy's. "Good evening, sir," she said (although it was only 4 o'clock in the afternoon). "My son has been fortunate enough to make your acquaintance I see. Dimples, bring up the table." The judge rose and bowed and stammered something, while the boy brought from behind the tree a wobbly rustic stand upon which his mother put the tray. Conversation became general and for the first time in his life Judge Holcombe shone at an impromptu entertainment. He paid the lady old-fashioned compliments upon her home and her children—upon the milk and the wine, both of which he recklessly drank and finally added: "Dimples—Dimples—dear me—quite an extraordinary name for a boy, is it not? But I like it!" Her low, sweet laughter answered him: "Oh, his real name is not Dimples. It is a pet name. We southern people are given to them. It seems such a pity, his father says, for a boy to have all the dimples instead of his sister." "I never thought much about dimples," the judge replied, "but now that my attention is called to the matter, I must say that I think they are decidedly attractive in boys. I think it is a misfortune they are not more generally practised—I mean possessed." His host beamed upon the company. "You see, mother, he can talk very nicely. I knew he would after he got acquainted. He was only bashful at first." The judge had a wide reputation as an after dinner speaker and his political orations were not unknown to fame, but this tribute of his new friend touched him more than the encomiums of the press. He exerted himself to interest the lady and the child, and after a delightful half hour rose to take his leave. "Madam," he said, "you have given me a unique experience, a practical exhibition of the southern hospitality of which we hear so much. My name is Holcombe." Dimples pricked up his ears. "Oh, mother! Mother, he's got my middle name. Maybe we can claim klin." "What is your full name?" the old man cried with an odd break in his voice. "Jeremiah Holcombe Grey. Father calls me Jerry when I'm good and when I'm bad he calls me Jeremiah Jr. and says I'm like——" "Hush, Dimples," his mother interrupted, but the visitor's face had lighted up with a radiance which took ten years ago. "When you're bad he call it 'raising Cain' doesn't he? That was an ancient phrase of your father's when he was a naughty boy himself—and he tells you you are like old Jeremiah Holcombe, who wished to adopt him as his own son, in whose office he studied law and with whom he foolishly quarreled years ago. Madam, it was once part of my day dreams that there should be some time upon this earth a boy named Jeremiah Holcombe Grey. Strange that my dream should have been fulfilled today at an hour when life seemed to hold nothing for me." She would have spoken, the warm light of understanding flooding her beautiful face, but he raised his hand. "Not now. When your husband returns tell him that there is a lonely old man at the hotel who longs to know that bygones may be bygones. Tell him to forgive me and let me forgive him." Thanksgiving at the Grey's that year surpassed itself. It was rumored all through the place that Judge Grey had found some of his northern kin at the hotel, that the "Kln" was also a judge, and that after years of estrangement peace was about to be established. On this occasion Judge Holcombe made the speech of his life. He asked Dimplets to stand up with him. "It is usual," he said, "under circumstances such as these to begin with generalities and work round to the personal. I will therefore begin with the turkey, 'the turkey that talked,' for it showed me that my boy, Edward Grey, had not quite hardened his heart against his old state of Massachusetts. He was still celebrating—Thanksgiving—her one day of pride and glory—as his ancestors did. He had not forgotten, even in these happier surroundings, the stern old man who loved him, for his only son bears the name of Jeremiah Holcombe. I am emboldened to ask a favor once refused, Edward Grey—you refused to let me adopt you in the days that are gone—may I adopt your whole family now." "With all my heart, Uncle Jeremiah, as they say in the south, every last one of us!" HISTORY REPEATED The same old proclamation that his ancestors heard.

Among the spectators at a match between the Blackburn Rovers and the Olympic was a little lad about nine years of age. Though the boy's knowledge of the game may have been limited, his notion of correct play was extremely robust. "Go it, 'Lympic,' he yelled. "Rush 'em off their pins. Clatter 'em. Jump on their chests. Bowl 'em over. Good for yer. Mow 'em down. Scatter 'em, 'Lympic." When his parent neatly "grassed" one of the opposing forwards, the youngster expressed approval by bawling, "Good fer yer, owd 'en," adding proudly to the spectators, "Feyther 'ad 'im sweet." "Yes," said a hearer, "but he'll get killed before the game's finished." "I don't care a carrot if he does," said the boy.-London Tit-Bits. NOT WORRYING.

BABY WASTED TO SKELETON "My little son, when about a year and a half old, began to have sores come out on his face. I had a physician treat him, but the sores grew worse. Then they began to come out on his arms, then on other parts of his body, and then one came on his chest, worse than the others. Then I called another physician. Still he grew worse. At the end of about a year and a half of suffering he grew so bad that I had to tie his hands in clothes at night to keep him from scratching the sores and tearing the flesh. He got to be a mere skeleton, and was hardly able to walk. "My aunt advised me to try Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. I sent to a drug store and got a cake of Cuticura Soap and a box of the Ointment and followed directions. At the end of two months the sores were all well. He has never had any sores of any kind since. I can sincerely say that only for Cuticura my child would have died. I used only one cake of Cuticura Soap and about three boxes of Ointment. "I am a nurse and my profession brings me into many different families and it is always a pleasure for me to tell my story and recommend Cuticura Remedies. Mrs.Egbert Sheldon, Litchfield, Conn., Oct. 23, 1909." An Exciting Town. Los Angeles is a truly exciting town to live in. To say nothing of its heavenly climate and its bombs, there is always something stimulating in the occult line going on. Just the other day a widow of the angelic city began to long for a sight of one of her schoolmates whom she had not seen for 45 years. The longing brought its fulfillment. A spirit told her to look for him in Brooklyn. She obeyed, met him on the street a few hours after she arrived, and promptly married him. It is worth while to live in a city where things like this happen, even at the risk of being blown up now and then. Little Myra Explains.

Have you tried? Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound? We can furnish positive proof that it has made many remarkable cures after all other means had failed. Women who are suffering with some form of female illness should consider this. As such evidence read these two unsolicited testimonial letters. We guarantee they are genuine and honest statements of facts. Cresson, Pa.—"Five years ago I had a bad fall, and hurt myself inwardly. I was under a doctor's care for nine weeks, and when I stopped I grew worse again. I sent for a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, took it as directed, and now I am a stout, hearty woman."—Mrs. Ella E. Aikey, Cresson, Pa. Baird, Wash.—"A year ago I was sick with kidney and bladder troubles and female weakness. The doctors gave me up. All they could do was to just let me go as easily as possible. I was advised by friends to take Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and Blood Purifier. I am completely cured of my fills, and I am nearly sixty years old."—Mrs. Sarah Leighton, Baird, Wash. Evidence like the above is abundant showing that the derangements of the female organism which breed all kinds of miserable feelings and which ordinary practice does not cure, are the very disorders that give way to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. Women who are afflicted with similar troubles, after reading two such letters as the above, should be encouraged to try this wonderfully helpful remedy. For 30 years Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has been the standard remedy for female ills. No sick woman does justice to herself who will not try this famous medicine. Made exclusively from roots and herbs, and has thousands of cures to its credit. Mrs. Pinkham invites all sick women to write her for advice. She has guided thousands to health free of charge.

"They must think we are in a bad way here in New York," said Francis Wilson at the Players' club. "They must think we are as hopeless as the temperance audience in Quag." Mr. Wilson was condemning the proposed law to imprison for a year any person arrested twice for drunkenness. He resumed: "A drummer attended a Quag temperance lecture one night. The audience was enthusiastic. It cheered every point that the lectured made. Yet the lecturer had a red nose and a shaky hand, while an unpleasant odor of alcohol made the air of the hall heavy. "Are they all teetotalers here?" the drummer whispered to a neighbor suspiciously. "Yes, sir," was the reply, 'all stilet teetotalers—between the drinks.'"—Washington Star. A Good Comedian.

Jones, Pauls Valley, Okla., says: "The hardships and exposure I endured in the Civil War and when serving as a scout under Bill Cody, brought on my kidney trouble.

When the country youth proposed to the city girl, he received the conventional assurance that she would be his sister. It happened that this youth had sisters at home and knew exactly his privileges. So he kissed her. At this juncture she availed herself of the sisterly right to call out to father that brother was teasing her. Father responded in good, muscular earnest. Then the new brother-and-sister relation was dissolved by mutual consent. —Judge.

Looking After the Eggs Lady Betty, who is 4 years old and never misses a trick, was taken the other evening to a restaurant for her supper, and with all the importance and sprightly dignity of her years calmly ordered poached eggs on toast. While the little family group was awaiting its service the "kiddie" amused herself by looking out of the window, pressing against a screen to get a closer view of something below. She was warned by her mother that the screen might give way and let her fall to the sidewalk, perhaps injuring her terribly. She drew away, thought a minute, and then said naively: "Would I fall if the screen went out?" "You certainly would," was her mother's reply. "And would I get aawful hurted?" "Very likely." "Then what would the man do with the eggs?" The People Do Not Drink Enough Water to Keep Healthy, Says Well-Known Authority. "The numerous cases of kidney and bladder diseases and rheumatism are mainly due to the fact that the drinking of water, nature's greatest medicine, has been neglected. Stop loading your system with medicines and cure-alls; but get on the water wagon. If you are really sick, why, of course, take the proper medicines—plain, common vegetable treatment, which will not shatter the nerves or ruin the stomach." To cure Rheumatism you must make the kidneys do their work; they are the filters of the blood. They must be made to strain out of the blood the waste matter and acids that cause rheumatism; the urine must be neutralized so it will no longer be a source of irritation to the bladder, and, most of all, you must keep these acids from forming in the stomach. This is the cause of stomach trouble and poor digestion. For these conditions you can do no better than take the following prescription: Fluid Extract Dandelion, one-half ounce; Compound Kargon, one ounce; Compound Syrup Sarsaparilla, three ounces. Mix by shaking well in bottle and take in teaspoonful doses after each meal and at bedtime, but don't forget the water. Drink plenty and often. This valuable information and simple prescription should be posted up in each household and used at the first sign of an attack of rheumatism, backache or urinary trouble, no matter how slight NEWS TO DATE IN PARAGRAPHS CAUGHT FROM THE NETWORK OF WIRES ROUND ABOUT THE WORLD. DURING THE PAST WEEK RECORD OF IMPORTANT EVENTS CONDENSED FOR BUSY PEOPLE. THANKSGIVING PROCLAMATION. This year of 1910 is drawing to a close. The records of population and harvests, which are the work of the missionaries is national growth and the health and prosperous well-being of our communities throughout the world. In our present year, you will spend the seas. These blessings have not descended upon us in restricted measure, but overflow and abound. They are the blessings and bounty of God. We continue to be at peace with the rest of the world. In all essential matters our relations with other countries are growing reality of friendliness and depth of recognition of mutual dependence. It is especially to be noted that during the last year progress was made in the cause of obliteration and the peaceful settlement of international disputes. Now, therefore, I, William Howard Taft, President of the United States of America, in accordance with the wise custom of the civil magistrate since the first settlements in this land and with the rule established from the foundation of this government in 1910, as a day of national thanksgiving and prayer, enjoining the people to meet in their churches for the praise of Almighty God and to return heartfelt thanks to all His goodness and loving kindness. In witness whereof, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the seal of the United States to be affixed. Done at Washington, this, the fifth day of November, in the year of our Lord one thousand and ten and of the Independence of the United States, the one hundred and thirty-fifth. (Signed) WILLIAM HOWARD TAFT, secretary of state. A. Adee, acting secretary of state. WESTERN. At Phoenix, Ariz., after three hours devoted to oratory on the woman suffrage question the constitutional convention defeated the proposition. Nearly 2,000 more people left Nome than entered the Bering sea city during the navigation season just closed, according to figures compiled by United States custom officers. Colorado fruit dominates the annual exposition of the National Horticultural Association at Council Bluffs, which is in full blast. The competition between various fruit sections of the United States has never been so keen as at this show, thirty-seven states being represented. The Colorado exhibit is clearly a walk away from the whole show, occupying 1,000 feet of space. The Grand Junction Fruit Growers' Association has sent there more than $3,000 worth of choice apples and pears, selected by the best growers of the Grand valley. This is reinforced by exhibits from the Montezuma valley, Delta, Montrose and other Colorado points. WASHINGTON. The Supreme Court of the United States has adjourned for its Thanksgiving recess. It will reconvene November 28th. President Taft will appoint a committee in Denver to aid in a national campaign to raise $2,000,000 for the American Red Cross. The United States government is about to establish a biological station to study the contagious diseases of fish. Cancer is one of these diseases. Through unofficial sources a report has reached the state department that Antonio Rodriguez, the alleged Mexican who was burned at the stake at Rock Springs, Texas, by a mob, was really born in New Mexico. Attorney General Wickersham by direction of President Taft has begun an inquiry to determine whether 6,000 acres, of valuable oil lands in California, was known to contain oil before being patented to the Southern Pacific Railway Company. If such is the case a suit to recover will be instituted. With both governments in perfect accord in regard to the Texas lynching and the anti-American riots in Mexico there is no sign of a war-cloub between the United States and Mexico. Mexico promises to punish rioters who have desecrated the American flag and damaged property of Americans in Mexico. Texas is investigating the lynching of a Mexican and, with the federal government, will satisfy Mexican demands. It is reported that the American consulate at Ciudad Porfirio Diaz, Mexico, was wrecked by a mob, but no one was injured. American citizens in Mexico have been cautioned by United States Ambassador Wilson to refrain from acts of violence, as he is convinced that the Mexican government is exercising its best efforts to suppress the anti-American riots. Secretary of Agriculture Wilson joins Charles W. Armour in the prediction that falling prices soon will give the American consumer cheaper foodstuffs. "We have had bumper crops and meat prices should come down." says Secretary Wilson. FOREIGN. Turkey is already $500,000,000 in debt to French investors. M. Le Gagneux, the French aviator, with a passenger, made a flight from Paris to Brussels in the competition for the $30,000 prize offered by the Automobile Club. POLITICAL. The Socialist administration of Milwaukee has borrowed another $160,000 to meet expenses during November. This is the second sum needed since the funds ran out, two months ago. It is expected the city will have to borrow again before tax money comes in make up the deficit. The election of a Republican legislature for Wyoming is assured. Also the return of United States Senator Clarence D. Clark and the re-election of Congressman Frank W. Mondell. Ex-Senator Joseph M. Carey, insurgent Republican-Democratic candidate for governor, is elected by about 5,000 majority. Judge Stimson E. Baldwin, just elected governor of Connecticut, in replying to congratulations of his class of the Yale law school, reiterated his intention of bringing action against former President Roosevelt because of certain statements reported to have been made by the latter concerning Judge Baldwin. In a brief reply to the students Judge Baldwin said: "In my campaign I was assisted by a controversy I had with a certain ex-President, and I have come to the conclusion that this ex-President knows less law than you and I." SPORT. Jumbo Wells of Australia and Kyle Whitney of Boston fought fifteen rounds to a draw in Troy, N. Y. Fielder Jones of Portland, former manager of the Chicago White Sox, has again denied that he will endeavor to "come back." Harris Hanshue, driving an Apperson in Phoenix, Ariz, broke the world's record for a mile circular track with a stock car. His time was :56 1-4. It will not be long before Jack Johnson, world's heavyweight champion, sign articles to meet any of the fighters who are clamoring for chances to step into the ring with him. GENERAL. The American Federation of Labor is holding a two week's session in St. Louis. Trenton, N. J., has a population of 96,815, according to the thirteenth census statistics. The population of the state of Florida is 751,139, an increase of 42.1 per cent, or 222,597 over 528,542 in 1900. Arizona, according to the new census has a population of 204,354, a gain in ten years of sixty-six per cent. J. Ogden Armour of Chicago, says the whole tendency in the prices of stock yard products is toward a lower schedule. When the next New York state Legislature convene sat Albany a bill will be introduced legalizing public boxing exhibitions. According to indications retail prices of meats in Chicago and surrounding territory will suffer a marked decrease. A premature explosion of dynamite killed two men and injured three others, one probably fatally, at camp No. 11 in the town of Lebanon, Wis. After an illness of several months, following a minor operation performed in New York last spring, John La Farge, the famous artist, died at the Butler hospital in Providence, R. I. A negro named Walker, who killed Marshal Charles K. Bush of Montezuma, Ga., two weeks ago, was taken from the Macon jail by a mob and lynched. Robin J. Cooper was given a verdict of not guilty in the criminal court of Nashville, for the alleged murder of former Senator Edward W. Carmack. Thus was brought to a close the final chapter in one of the most celebrated cases in the annals of the courts of Tennessee. Race suicide is given as the cause for Baltimore dropping from sixth to seventh place among American cities. It was race suicide, not of the foreign born element, but of native Americans. Thus, in the Eleventh ward, where native born Americans preponderate to the extent of 95 per cent, there were only 151 births from Jan. 1 to Sept. 30. The Panama canal will be completed December 1, 1913, within the $375.000,000 already authorized. This information was given to President Taft while inspecting the famous Gatun dam. The official date of the opening remains January 1, 1915, Lieutenant Colonel Goethals desiring one year in which to get the machinery working smoothly. Aerial navigation has proven that it is a factor which must be dealt with in the naval tactics of the future, if the successful flight made by Eugene B. Ely in a Curtiss biplane from the deck of the cruiser Birmingham at Fort Monroe, Va., can be taken as a criterion. From Hampton Roads, the scene forty-five years ago of another epoch in the history of naval warfare, when an ironclad proved its superiority over the former type of fighting vessel, the aviator flew across the lower end of Chesapeake bay, landing on the shore opposite from Fort Monroe. Alexander Stephen Clay, Junior United States senator from Georgia, died of heart disease at Atlanta. Senator Clay was 57 years old and was serving his third term in the United States Senate. Nearly 2,800 persons lost their lives by violence in the state of Washington during the two years preceding October 1, 1910, a proportion greater than in any other registration district in the civilized world. Of these violent deaths 2,110 were accidental, eighty-nine by accidental poisoning, 458 by suicide and 146 by homicide. "See here, waiter," said Mr. Grouch, scowling deeply over his plate, "I ordered turtle soup. There not even a morsel of turtle flavor in this." "Of course not, sir," returned the waiter. "What do you expect? Shakespeare said there was nothing in a name. If you ordered college pudding would you expect a college in it?

WANTED SATAN SENT NORTH Good Example of Scottish Humor In Remark Made by Railroad Porter. Scottish humor is dry rather than boisterous, and I always think there is exquisite drollery in the story of the Stonehaven railway porter and the Salvation Army "captain." To catch the hang of a little yarn readers must remember that Stonehaven lies to the south of Aberdeen. The London train had drawn up at Stonehaven on account of a slight mishap a mile or two ahead, and Andra, the old porter, had got into conversation with a Salvation Army officer who had popped his head out of the compartment to ask the reason for the delay. "Aye, aye," mused Andra, after giving the desired information, "you'll be for Aberdeen. I'm thinkin'?" "Yes, my man," was the reply; "I'm bound for Aberdeen—a very wicked place, I'm told!" "What might ye be goin' to dae there, sir, if it's as bad as a 'that?' asked Andra, rather amused at the visitor's words. "Ah," was the plious answer, "I'm going to drive the devil out of Aberdeen!" Like lightning came from the old porter the pawky retort:— "See an' drive him north, chiel; haud him well to the north!"—Exchange. WANTED 'EM BACK. The Barber—Some hair restorer, sir? Man in Chair—Yes, if it'll restore the hairs you've just rubbed off. PUTS STOMACHS IN ORDER. No Indigestion, Gas, Sourness or Dysppepsia Five Minutes After Taking a Little Diapausein. There should not be a case of Indigestion, dyspepsia or gastritis here if readers who are subject to Stomach trouble knew the tremendous anti-ferment and digestive virtue contained in Diapausein. This harmless preparation will digest a heavy meal without the slightest fuss or discomfort, and relieve the sourest, acid stomach in five minutes, besides overcoming all foul, nauseous odors from the breath. If your stomach is sour and full of gas, or your food doesn't digest, and your meal don't seem to fit, why not get a 50-cent case of Pape's Diapepsin from any drugist here in town, and make life worth living. Absolute relief from Stomach misery and perfect digestion of anything you eat is sure to follow five minutes after, and besides, one fifty-cent case is sufficient to cure a whole family of such trouble. Surely, a harmless, inexpensive preparation like Pape's Diapepsin, which will always either at daytime or during night, relieve your sick, sour, gassy, upset stomach and digest your meals, is about as handy and valuable a thing as you could have in the house. Back to the Wild. There was a time when all dogs were wild and when what we call wolves were different from other dogs only as a collie now is different from a Newfoundland, for instance. From time to time you will hear of dogs that have returned to the life of their ancestors and have run wild with the wolves of the prairie or of the woods. In the town of Sandy in Oregon a greyhound one night made the acquaintance of a coyote, which is a kind of wolf, and ever since he has lived away from the town, running with the coyotes and approaching human dwelling-places only to steal a hen or two when he has been more than usually hungry.

A DOLLAR eenth Street 50 SHOE STORES ure Co. second hand Window sold and Cash or Credit COO N the design on the left we have a soft grey cashmere dress; the skirt has a panel front, folds trimming the foot of sides and back; the slight fullness is gathered at waist. The bodice is quite simple in shape, plain on shoulders and a little full at waist; it has a vest of lace, but no collar-band. The fichu is of spotted muslin finely tucked on the shoulders and edged with insertion and lace. The small puffed elbow sleeves are finished with lace ruffles. Materials required: 8 yards 46 inches wide, 1½ yards muslin 36 inches wide, 3½ yards lace, 2½ yards insertion, 1½ yard lace for vest, 1½ Home Needleworker May Make One From Many Different Kinds of Materials. Many of the new separate blouses in paisley, persian and dresden designs are being made from crepe handkerchiefs, scarfs and mufflers. This is a hint which may well be taken by the home needleworker, as these blouses, of the silky crepe, are easy to cut and make up. Usually there is figured design in the middle, then a band of plain white or a light color and a figured border. This white strip must be allowed for, and it looks well as the lower part of the blouse and the inside of the sleeves, thus giving a sort of bolero effect. Under sheer veliling these crepe handkerchief waists are draped, and they lend themselves readily to this treatment. If you have too many scarfs of this sort, or simply wish an original blouse to match the scarf worn by everybody nowadays, think of this Paris idea and act accordingly. Knit-In Beads. Be careful to use a needle fine enough to go through even the smallest of the various kinds of beads to be employed. Prepare a length of fine thread and pass both ends of the thread through the eye of the needle, thus forming a loop through which hang the end of the wool selected for knitting. Begin threading the beads according to the pattern. When they are all worked in, cast off on the first row after the last bead row. The number of beads in a row is often found to be one less than the number of stitches, the odd stitch being slipped without a bead at the beginning of the row for firmness and regularity. To secure the beads, slip the first stitch; knit the rest plain, passing one bead up close to the needle at every stitch before the silk or wool is raised; second, slip one, knit without beads. New Silk Braid. The woman who wants embroidered effects, but does not like arduous work, will welcome a new silk braid that looks like chain stitching. A design is stamped as for ordinary embroidery and the braid is sewed on the outlines by hand. A few filling stitches or french knot centers increase the effect of hand. embroidery. These braids come in colors to match most of the new shades of dress material. They are especially effective on pongees and shantungs done in self tones. For the Needleworker. Use cotton tape for binding the plackets of small children's drawers—one piece for each placket. Sew the sleeves of thin waists in a French seam, stitching twice the last time. This is not so heavy as a binding. Keep a stiletto on your machine—it turns under the edges of hems and cells like magic, and is, besides, useful in mary other ways. yard bodice lining. For the second old pink voile is used; the skirt here also has a panel front braided at the foot; the slides and back are untrimmed, but are set in flat pleats to the waist-band. The bodice has a round yoke of finely tucked silk; the material is also tucked and joins yoke under a band of braided material; the wide, untucked piece in front is also braided, as are the cuffs of the tucked sleeves; black ribbon is draped across front of bodice and falls in long knotted ends on left side, being fixed to the waist-band under a rosette. Materials required: 8 yards 46 inches wide, $ \frac{3}{4} $ yard silk, $ 1 \frac{1}{2} $ yard lining. Satin Dress That Exists to Be a Testimonial to the Skill of the Modiste. This is a style well suited to satin, and the color chosen here is moonlight blue. The skirt is made with a straight panel down center of front, edged each side with pearl insertion. The sides and back are then gathered in at the waist, and again at lower part to a band of insertion; below this A the satin is plain. The bodice has a wide fold on each shoulder, edged on the inner side by insertion; a strip of this edges the top, also sleeves, which are arranged in folds. Buttons add to trimming on bodice and skirt. Materials required: 7 yards satin, about 8 yards insertion, 4 dozen buttons. A Dressmaking Hint. In stitching the work drops over the machine and often is dragged into the wheel. A plain cretonne curtain, tucked just under the shelf or table of the machine, helps wonderfully with this trouble. Tucks must not be left out to catch on the work. Simple Markings. Simple markings on watches and lockets are in favor. If the block letter with or without a circle or oval is not used, old English initials are the next favorite.
