LACK OF MONEY Was a Godsend In This Case It is not always that a lack of money is a benefit. A lady of Green Forest, Ark., owes her health to the fact that she could not pay in advance the fee demanded by a specialist to treat her for stomach trouble. In telling of her case she says: "I had been treated by four different physicians during 10 years of stomach trouble. Lately I called on another who told me he could not cure me; that I had neuralgia of the stomach. Then I went to a specialist who told me I had catarrh of the stomach and said he could cure me in four months but would have to give his money down. But not raise the necessary sum and in my extremity I would have to give coffee and try Postum. "So I stopped coffee and gave Postum a thorough trial and the results have been magical. I now sleep well at night, something I had not done for a long time; the pain in my stomach is gone and I am a different woman. "I dreaded to quit coffee, because every time I had tried to stop it it fared from severe headaches. I continued to drink it, although I had reason to believe it was serious to me, and was the cause of my stomach and extreme nervousness. But when I had Postum to shift to it was different. "To my surprise I did not miss coffee when I began to drink Postum. "Coffee had been steadily and surely killing me and I didn't fully realize what was doing it until I quit and changed to Postum.

Great issue Declared to Be Doing Away With Special Privilege—Praise Is Given Senator Bristow. Kansas City, Mo., Sept. 1.—Ex-President Roosevelt arrived here shortly after noon today, and spent the day as the guest of the Commercial club. The reception committee and the Thirteenth regiment met at the station and there was a short pause through the city to the Hotel Baltimore, where luncheon was served. Among the guests were Governor Hadley of Governor Stubbs of Kansas, General Funston and the senators from Missouri and Kansas. Makes a Lively Speech. This evening, after a dinner given by the officers of the Commercial club, Roosevelt develoed a lively address in the public square, incursion in the public services. He said: Honesty Is Not Unilateral. Romney, however, that honesty cannot be unilateral. Good citizens should cordially distrust the man who can never distrust honesty except in men who are honesty advisers or advisors who invariably singles out men of wealth as furnishing the only examples of dishonesty; and the equivocal, reactionary who can see dishonesty only in a blackmailing politician and reactionary who can see dishonesty only in a blackmailing politician on the same plane of obliviousness. You will never get honesty from politicians until you exact honesty from them, and brand yourself as fools or as hypocrites if you say that the corporation owner, or the employer, is always the wealthier man, never, that it is only the wealthy man who corrupts the politician and never the politician who blackmails Any man in his senses knows that there are plenty of corporations in this country who prosper by bringing legislation to regulate the public; and any man in his senses ought to know, in addition, that there are plenty of people who will mean means, who in legislative or other bodies, try to blackmail corporations—and try to blackmail other people. We know that they look at the revelations of corruption in my own state—New York—and in yours, my heart is a blackbird. What happened in California and what has occurred in Illinois. In Illinois, for instance, one of the most important investigation was the existence of a combination of legislators who blackmailed fishermen along a certain stretch of coastline, and legislation which would have interfered with their business. No Distinction Now we do these kinds of things are of course, the very men who, on the one hand, will blackmail a corporation, if they get a chance, to attack them. If the chance occurs, sell themselves to that corporation against the interests of the public. If the action of the corporations than the corruption of the corporations is due to their action; and evil, and not the corporation, is indulged man who would persecute you that either fact is true. Our duty is to war with equal sternness against the corporation and the small man who makes a trade of corruption; our fight is against both the swindling corporation and the blackmilling or brise-taking corporation. We cannot afford to limit a campaign against corruption to those who hap- Divorce Statistics.

Justified. The man who boisterously informs you that he knows what he is talking about is always justified in suspecting that you may be harboring a reason. pen to have a certain social status. We need laws which shall put the corporal corporation in the power of corrupting the servants of the public and betraying the rights of the public. I believe that the great issue now before the people is the doing away with the power of the corporal corporation to control legislation in its own interest and to order to secure privileges to which it is not entitled. But I regard the extension factor in this campaign as being unnaturally condemn dishonesty in every form, and in every man, big or small, who in speaking or writing, seeks to persuade us that we need pay heed to corruption only in order to afford a trustworthy moral wrong as doing great moral wrong as the rich man whose low moral standard tends to lower the moral standard of the whole community. We need justice from the corporations only if they both do justice to them and we do justice to them. We also need justice from the corporations to rich men, they put a premium upon injustice and dishonesty among rich men. Let us hold them honest in our own ranks, not for any wrong-doing; but let us insist upon honesty in our own ranks, not for any wrong-doing; and the endess of every kind in the man of small means as well as the man of large means, as we judge each man of small means, by Ls social or financial condition. KING IN QUEST OF A BRIDE Portugal's Youthful Ruler Has Seen influence in the world of Wife Shape Thrown Young King Manuel of Portugal is looking for a suitable bride, but none of the marriageable princesses of Europe seems to be over-axious to share his somewhat unstable throne. His failure to secure a wife during his recent tour is a source of great disappointment not only to Manuel himself but to his advisers. Manuel is not wealthy as monarchs go. His civil list is just $1,000 a day, and it was hoped he would be able to make a match with a popup princess possessing him, in her own father of one princess was strongly opposed to the alliance, not that he disliked the young Portuguese king, but because of the unsettled state of the country. Since the assassination of the late King Carlos and his oldest son, the condition of Portugal has not improved, and there are fears that before very long serious trouble will break out. A well-known Portuguese politician, in a letter to a prominent Englishman, says that the people are intensely dissatisfied with the existing regime and the growing influence of the old clericalism at court, and the forms are not quickly implemended by the members of the old camarilla dismissed a revolution may break out at any moment. There is, of course, the alternative of Manuel's abdication and the succession of his uncle, the Infante Alfonso, duke of Oporto, a man of forty-five. REFUSED TO BUY TELEGRAPH Morse Patent Offered to the Government for $100,000—Now Capitalized at $220,000,000. Sixty-five years ago, on April 1, Professor Morshe, accompanied by his associates, stood before congress and offered to sell the patents on the electric telegraph for $100,000. After a long and bitter debate congress appropriated $30,000 for the construction of a line from Washington and Baltimore in order that the merits of the invention might be fully tested, says Electric News. It is recorded that President Polk thought the invention a good thing for the government to own, but the postmaster general, in a long report, gave as his opinion that the revenues could never be made to cover the expenditures in the telegraphing in the Morse Today, in our country at $220,000,000. But this little anecdote is seldom told by the officials of the Western Union Telegraph company, for it is a matter of history that Prof. Alexander Graham Bell offered to sell his telephone patents to the telegraph company for the palum sum of $30,000, but the officials of that company and design an invention a toy, with commercial value. Today there are more than five million telephones in use in this country, earning $150,000,000 annually. Where Bread is a Weird Mixture. The pure food movement does not seem to have made much headway in France, according to the Scientific American: "Bread, which may be called the national food of France, has long been adulterated largely with talc, a substance which is not only indigestible, but it is exceedingly irritating to the gastro-intestinal mucous membrane because of it contains crystal fragments which it contains. Flour is often with alum or with potassium carbonate to increase the amount of water absorbed; with zinc sulphate to keep the bread fresh; with copper sulphate and ammonium carbonate to diminish the quantity of yeast required to improve the appearance of bread made of spoiled flour. Denatured alcohol, costing one-eighth the price of pure alcohol, is used for the manufacture of the liquors and aperitifs which are so largely consumed in France." Up-to-Date Mother Goose.

The ameer has published an edict which applies to all parts of Afghanistan, prohibiting the import into the country of all kinds of gold lace, in cluding embroidered kullas lungis and embroidered shoes. The ameer is evidently actuated by a desire to prevent his subjects from spending their hard earned money on showy dress. It is the poorer classes who are notoriously addicted to this extravagance which his majesty has decided to check. The gold laced coat of the Afghan is decidedly handsome, and although the ameer has acted wisely in bringing in general use clothing less costly, his majesty's orders will doubtless be received by his subjects with rather mixed feelings. Proper Bestowal or Charity. Dickens: There are not a few among the disciples of charity who require in their vocation, scarcely less excitement than the votaries of pleasure in theirs; and hence it is that diseased sympathy and compassion are every day expended on out-of-the way objects, when only too many demands upon the legitimate exercise of the same virtues in a healthy state are constantly within the sight and hearing of the most unobserved person alive. In short, charity must have its romance, as the novellist or the play wright must have his.
