The text of the Anglo-Japanese treaty, signed August 12, was issued from the foreign office in London Tuesday evening, together with a Mispatch to the British ambassador at St. Petersburg with instructions to communicate it to the Russian government at the earliest opportunity.
The treaty contains eight clauses and a long preamble. The latter states that the object of the treaty is the maintenance of general peace in Asia and India and the preservation of interests of all the powers in China by ensuring the integrity of China and the principle of equal opportunity for the commerce of all nations, the maintenance of territorial rights of Great Britain and Japan in Eastern Asia and India and the defense of their special interests therein.

"Article 2. If by reason of an unprovoked attack or aggressive action wherever arising on the part of any power or powers either party be involved in war in defense of its rights or interests the other party will at once come to the assistance of its ally and will conduct war in common and make peace in mutual agreement.
"Article 3. Japan possessing paramount political, military and economic rights in Korea, Great Britain recognizes Japan's right to take such measures for the guidance, control and protection of Korea as she may deem proper and necessary to safeguard and advance those interests providing the measures are not contrary to the principle of equal opportunity for all countries.
"Article 4. Japan recognizes the rights of Great Britain to take such measures in relation to her Indian frontier as are necessary to safeguard her Indian possessions.
"Article 5. The high contracting parties agree that neither will, without consulting the other, enter into a separate arrangement with another power to the prejudice of the objects described in these preambles.
"Article 6. As regards the present war between Japan and Russia, Great Britain will continue to maintain strict neutrality unless some other power or powers join in hostilities against Japan, in which case Great Britain will come to the assistance of Japan, will conduct in common and will make peace in mutual agreement with Japan.
"Article 7. The conditions under which armed assistance shall be afforded by either power to the other in these circumstances mentioned in the present agreement and the means by which such assistance shall be made available. will be arranged by the naval and military authorities of the contracting parties, who will from time to time consult with each freely on all questions of mutual interests.
"Article 8. The present agreement shall be subject to the provisions of article 6 and goes into effect immediately after the date of signature and remain in force ten years from that date in case neither of the parties shall have been notified twelve months before the expiration of said ten years of an intention of omitting it.

Early Friday mording the charred remains of Lula Wise, a negro woman, and her four children were found in the smoking ruins of her home near Jacksonville, Fla., which was burned during the night.
The skulls of the woman and all of her children were crushed, indicating that they had been murdered and the house had been burned to conceal the crime.
SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 30, 1905
While Coroner Was Making Up Verdict, Desperado and Multi-Murderer, Sends Open Challenge.
At Ellabelle, Ga., Tuesday; while Will E. Simms, a white desporado, heavily armed, stood in plain sight, a coroner's jury found him guilty of murder.
Ellabelle is in Bryan county, 24 miles from Savannah, and the vicinity is in a state of terror because of the acts of Simms, who has already killed two men, has notified others that he will kill them on sight, and who, for the last three weeks, has openly defied the officers of the state and county, being, it is said, sheltered and supplied with ammunition by relatives and openly-levied contributions of food and money from various persons of the community, enforcing compliance with his wishes at the point of a Winchester.
Tuesday, a coroner's jury deliberated on the death of a negro, the latest victim of Simms. The murderer was so near the scene and so well posted as to the proceedings that before a verdict had been reached, he had addressed an open letter to all who were against him, defying them to do their worst and inviting them to come in the woods and look for him.
About four weeks ago, at Ellabelle, Simms shot and killed Julius Lansburg, a freight train conductor on the Seaboard Air Line, for no other reason, it is reported, than that Lansburg had refused him permission to ride to Savannah on his train. After this crime he disappeared for a few days, but did not leave the vicinity of Ellabelle, merely keeping out of sight in the day time. A few days ago he killed an old negro man and seriously wounded his son. He openly admitted the deed to some of his relatives, and gave as his reason the fact that the negro had told of the place where Simms was in the habit of spending the nights.
It was for his latest crime that the inquest was held. The man who gave the most damaging testimony against Simms immediately left the vicinity, fearing the vengeance of the murderer, and numbers of negroes likewise are fleeing from the country, being in a state of abject fear that they, too, may become victims of Simms' unerring rifle. A posse, led by the sheeriff, started out Tuesday night, searching Simms' haunts, with the intention of taking him dead or alive.
Simms is armed with a Winchester and two revolvers. He is a sure shot. He was within sight of the court house, where the inquest was held, but so great is the terror his name inspires that none would dare go to capture him.
At the hearing, Sheriff James Parrish, upbraided those who have been giving food and shelter to the outlaw.
Carter's Fight to Retain Boodle Under Full Swing at Chicago. At Chicago, Tuesday, attorneys for the federal government continued the cross-examination of former Captain O. M. Carter in the proceedings brought to compel Carter to turn over $500,000 to the national treasury. Twelve army chests filled with documentary evidence lined the walls of the room. Special Examiner Richard Wyman is taking testimony which will later be referred to United States Circuit Judge Kohlsaat for consideration. The funds in controversy are in the hands of the federal court awaiting the decision of Judge Kohlsaat.

ARMY OFFICER SUICIDES.
Assistant Surgeon at Fort McPherson Barracks Tires of Life...
Captain G. C. M. Godfrey, assistant surgeon, United States army, committed suicide Saturday night at his residence on Officer's Row, Fort McPherson, Ga., by blowing out his brains with an army revolver. He is survived by his wife and one child, a boy.
No cause for the suicide can be ascribed, unless it be temporary mental aberration, the belief that is general among the officers at Fort McPherson.
PRESIDENT'S TRIP
To Southern States is Practically Arranged.
NEW ORLEANS,UNCERTAIN
Owing to Quarantine His Trip to That City May Be Delayed—President Now Occupied, on Message to
A special from Oyster Bay says: Arrangements for the trip of President Roosevelt through the south have been completed, except those pertaining to his visit to New Orleans and Little Rock.
On account of the prevalence of yellow fever in New Orleans, it is not unlikely that the president may defer his visit to that city until a later time. He is being urged not to go to New Orleans so long as the yellow fever epidemic continues there, but he has received assurances that the fever will be stamped out before the tentative date of his visit, October 24.
A suggestion was made recently that on account of the quarantine placed by the authorities of Arkansas on passengers from New Orleans, the president should visit Little Rock before going to New Orleans. It was announced officially Saturday night that if the quarantine regulations of other states should prevent the president's entrance into Arkansas or his return to Washington by rail, after having visited New Orleans, he may consider the plan of making New Orleans the final stop on his trip and returning from there to Washington by sea. However, no definite plans have been made for the New Orleans and Little Rock portion of the trip, and they will not be completed for two weeks.
Working on Message.
President Roosevelt will complete his summer sojourn at Sagamore Hill and return to Washington next Saturday.
The president, Mrs. Roosevelt, and members of the executive force will leave Sagamore Hill about 11 o'clock Saturday morning on a special Long Island railway train. They will go by boat from Long Island City to Jersey City and thence via the Pennsylvania railroad to Washington, reaching the capital shortly after six o'clock.
The president is devoting considerable time each day now to work on his message to congress. For some time he has been assembling data for the message, but since the adjournment of the peace conference he has been writing the data into definite form. The message will not be completed until some time early in November, because each member of the cabinet will have to supply material for discussion of the work of his department. This information will be contained in the annual reports of the cabinet officers, which have not been completed.
Three topics highly important at this time to the American people will be discussed by the president in his message. They are the federal regulation and supervision of life insurance, the relations between this country and Venezuela and America's interest in the fiscal affairs of the government of Santo Domingo. Other important subjects naturally will be considered, among them the scandals disclosed in the department of agriculture and the interior; the work of the department of justice in the beef trust cases; the regulation of railroad freight rates; the progress made in the construction of the Panama canal, and the conclusion of peace between Russia and Japan.
The consideration of all matters except those of immediate importance is being postponed until the president shall have reached Washington.

TILLMAN CALLED' A LIAR.
Strenuous Political Meeting Pulled Off
At Batesburg, South Carolina,
With Usual Trimmings.
At Batesburg, Lexington county, S. C., Saturday, was held the most exciting political meeting in the Palmetto State since the stirring days of 1892-93.
Senator B. R. Tillman and Colonel John' B, Towill, member of the state board of dispensary directors, clashed in debate and for several minutes the scene in the opera house, which was filled to overflowing, was one of indescribable confusion.
"According to the published advertisement for bids for Nqtor," said Senator Tillman, "no bids for less than $1.50 for X will be considered."
Advancing from his seat in the audience, Colonel Tillow, in a voice filled with excitement and emotion, said:
"Senator Tillman, that is false; you know that is not so."
Great applause followed this statement, mingled with shorts for Tillman and Towill.
Daring the cheering and confusion Tillman turned to those seated on the platform and said: "Where is the mayor? Where is the mayor?" Quickly facing the audience, which was upon its feet and apparently struggling toward the stage, he stood as if a marble. statue. Cries of "sit down; be quiet, go back to your seats," were uttered by those on the platform and some of the auditors.
Hardly had quiet been restored when the aged Rev. Mr. D. M. Padgett of Saluda arose and interrogated Tillman as to, his attacks upon the preachers, which resulted in another stormy scene, and the noise made it impossible to record the warm colloquy, which ensued:
Senator Tillman bitterly assailed the newspapers, naming the News and Courier, but The State in particular, for their attacks upon him.
"That hell-hound in Columbia, who is editor of The State, has told enough lies on me to build a railroad of crossties to hell," declared Tillman, in one of his heated moments. Tillman paid his respects to former Senator John L. McLaurin, saying that he considered it an insult to be invited to speak with him.
BOMB FOR WU TING-FANG.
Dastardly Effort to Annihilate Chinese Commissioners in Pekin.
At the railway station in Pekin, China, Sunday, as a train, carrying one of the four missions ordered abroad to study foreign political methods was leaving, a bomb was exploded inside a private car, killing four minor officials and wounding over twenty other persons.
The wounded include Prince Tsai Tehe, who heads the most important of the missions, and Wu Ting-fang, former muister to the United States, both of whom received slight injuries.
The perpetrator of the outrage, who was in the car, was blown to pieces. The affair has created a profound sensation and causes apprehension regarding the safety of members of the court and leading officials of the government. The government officers and the railways are now strongly guarded. The edict appointing the missions mentioned in the foregoing dispatch was issued July 16. A dispatch from Pekin, August 29, said that the missions were appointed to study foreign systems of government because the dowager empress intended to issue a decree at the new year for the establishment of a parliament twelve years hence.
McCALL IS ASKED QUESTION.
Defeated Candidate Guys President of New York Life. In an open letter to President John A. McCall of the New-York Life Insurance company, Franklin Leonard, a defeated democratic candidate for congress in the seventeenth district of New York City, has asked Mr. McCall how much of his money, paid on a life insurance policy, had been used to defeat him.
JUDGE GARY HELD UP.
Highwayman Relieves Him of Valuables on Streets of Columbia.
Judge Ernest Gary of the South Carolina state circuit court, was held up on the streets of Columbia, and robbed Saturday night of $26 in cash, a gold watch worth $100 and a bunch of keys. Two other persons were held up, one near the governor's mansion, the robbers securing $15 in cash, while a third man was relieved of $4 near the state penitentiary.
The hold-up occurred about 10 o'clock p. m., in the heart of the residential section.
SCOURGESITUATION
Better at New Orleans But is Unsatisfactory Elsewhere.
SPREADING IN PENSACOLA
Present Outlook in Florida Port City is Decidedly Discouraging—Reports from Mississippi and Country Sections of Louisiana.
A New Orleans special says: Reason for a continued hopefulness that yellow fever will be practically a memory on the date scheduled for the visit of President Roosevelt was found by the authorities in Monday's report, which, while exceedingly encouraging in the matter of new cases, after the long report for Sunday, also indicated that the fever now prevailing is of a comparatively light type. Publication were made during the day of the absolute discovery of the germ of yellow fever. The railroads report a large increase in their incoming passenger business, indicating the return of Orleansans who have been away.
Monday's official report was as follows: New cases 37, total to date 2,868, deaths Monday 3, total deaths 370, cases under treatment 282,' discharged 2,216.
News from the country indicated two new points of infection, one in Avoyelles parish and another in Assumption parish. The country reports were:
Kenner—Eight new cases.
Tallulah and Vicinity—Eight new cases.
Near Napoleonville—One case, two suspicious.
Bayou Boeuf and Amelia (six days)
—Thirteen new cases.
Terre Borne Parish (two days)—
Forty-seven new cases, four deaths.
Fisher's Camp, Barrataria—Four
new cases.
Patterson—Twenty-six new cases.
Situation in Mississippi.
The yellow fever infection at Hamburg, Miss., is spreading rapidly nine new cases, four suspicious cases and one death being reported Monday.
Two trained nurses furnished by the state board of health reached Hamburg this afternoon and were assigned to duty. The summary, from other infected points is as follows.
Natchez—Three new cases, one new foci, no deaths.
Vicksburg — One new case, no deaths.
Gulfport — Four new cases, no deaths.
Roxie—One new case, one death.
Mississippi City—One new case, no deaths.
Discouraging at Pensacola
Twenty-five new cases of yellow fever were reported by Pensacola physicians to the health office for the 24 hours ending at six o'clock Monday night. This makes thirty-four cases for Sunday and Monday.
The situation is rather discouraging, as the cases are scattered all over the city, and all hope of checking the disease before the appearance of frost has been practically abandoned.
Instructions were received from Surgeon General Wyman to proceed with the establishment of a detention camp near McDavid upon government land. The camp will accommodate 100, and applications from nearly 200 have already been received.
BANK FORCED TO THE WALL.
Kansas City State Institution Goes Into Liquidation.
The Kansas City State bank, Wiley S. Cox, president, failed to open its doors Monday, having gone into voluntary liquidation. The bank had loaned $163,000 to the bank of Salmon & Salmon at Clinton, Mo., which failed last July, catching depositors for several hundred thousands of dollars.
ROCKEFELLER EULOGIZED,
His Fellow Citizens of Cleveland Call Him Greatest Man Extant. Several hundred representative men of Cleveland, Ohio, called upon John D. Rockefeller at his home in Forest Hill Tuesday afternoon, and through Andrew Squire, a lawyer, and L. E. Holden, proprietor of the Cleveland Plain Dealer, expressed to Mr. Rockefeller their esteem for him as a citizen and as a great business man. The gathering included merchants, lawyers, clergymen, educators and men in humbler walks of life.
FOR AIDING A LOCKOUT.
Eleven Manufacturers in New York City Indicted for Illegally Importing Foreign Labor.
After eight months of careful preparation, the United States district attorney of the New York district, will, according to reliable authority, cause the arrest of eleven heads of manufacturing and contracting concerns of the city, on writes charging them with having conspired, through the medium of an employers' association, to violate the contract laws by the importation of foreign workingmen.
The penalty is a fine of not less than $1,000 nor more than $10,000, or imprisonment for not more than two years.
It is understood that the department of commerce and labor is directing the prosecution and its agents, with the aid of secret service agents, prepared the case. This has involved many months of investigation, and the keeping since January last of four men, English tile settlers, at Ellis Island. It is upon the evidence of these men, backed by corroborative evidence, that the government chiefly relies.
The evidence in the case goes back to the lockout by the Title. Grate and Mantel Association, an employers' association, of the men of mosaic and encaustic tile layers and helpers of New York and vicinity on August 6. of last year. To make the lockout a success, it is charged the employers' association sent one of its number to England and causee advertisements to appear in papers in England and Germany offering tile setters $5 per day for eight hours labor in the United States.
Fifty workmen, it is alleged, were imported to the United States at the instance, of the eleven accused men, and were instructed to swear falsely when questioned at Ellis Island by the immigration officials, as to their reasons for coming to America and especially to swear that they had as yet no employment in this country. It is also said that the men were furnished with the address of one of the accused and ordered to report to him.
Two weeks after the men were imported, the lockout being a success, it is alleged the accused caused the English workmen to be discharged, on the ground that they were not familiar with the American tools or with the methods of working in this country, and were therefore useless. Some of these men got home as best they could, but four of them carried their grievances to agents of the department of commerce and labor and rendered information on which an investigation was based. Since then they have been under detention at the immigrant station at Ellis Island.
Prisoner Had Attempted to Assault a White Woman.
A negro, Robert Taylor, attempted to assault the wife of Deputy Sheriff A. J. Shores at Clayton, Mo., Sunday, and was shot by Shores and badly wounded. The shooting attracted a mob of negroes from the congregation of a colored church, who attempted to lynch Taylor, but were prevented.
Deputy Shores had alighted from a street car and hearing a woman scream and seeing a negro running, he fired and the negro fell.
Later he discovered it was his own wife whom the negro had seized as she was on her way home from a neighborhood visit. He found her in a faint lying on the sidewalk.
BOYCOTT OFF AT SHANGHAI.
So Consul General Rodgers Reports to State Department.
Consul General Rodgers at Shanghai has cabled the state department as follows: "There is no longer any evidence of boycott conditions in or about Shanghai and American trade is active, particularly with the northern part of China and there has been no stamping of goods, 'boycott marks,' as was reported. On the whole, the condition of affairs seems to be satisfactory."

As a general thing the young men in this city that you find who are saying the most about what should be done, is not a tax payer and the shame of it too.
The Men's Sunday Club is increasing in popularity. If the club will do no more than have a large number of young men upon its roll to become tax payers, it would accomplish much for everlasting good.
It is appalling to note from the daily papers the number of crimes that are being committed by our women. Are they vieing with the men in this respect. A healthy sentiment for law and order should be more prevalent.
If you want to know the men and women of our race who have no self respect, go to the side door of the theatre any night or to the matinee and you will behold a drove of them. They are as void of pride as the street boys.
THE question is what will become of the fifty children from the Duffy St. school for whom no place was found at the other three schools at the closing of the term. Has room been made for them or will they be cast out to grow in ignorance unless their parents are able to secure them place in a private institution?
IF Will-Sims who is terrorizing Bryan County was a colored man, the entire county would have been up in arms and captured him dead or alive long ago. The authorities have not even done anything to the white people who are harboring the desperado. From this it can be seen how inconsistent men are who are sworn to uphold the laws.
Much inspiration can be gained next Monday morning in beholding the happy demeanor of the children wending their way to school after vacation days. In it all as colored citizens with the best interest of the children at heart, there is a tinge of sadness to know that thousands of our children in this city will be denied the privilege of learning because of the lack of room.
THE number of financial institutions among our people in this city should give inspiration to all, and cause a hearty support not only of them, but of every enterprise conducted by a colored man. Let every colored man and woman secure a part of their purchases from colored business men, and it is assured that the result will be of such a nature that employment will be opened for many of our boys and girls.
THE theatre season is open, and it is disgusting to note the number of our supposed to be intelligent young women who climb to the peanut gallery via the side door. They should have more self respect and race pride. The reason why we cannot get decent accommodation is on account of this giddy class accepting the inferior place now given. It is said that some of our school teachers frequent the loft too; if that is a fact, they are not fit to teach our children. How can we be a race with pride and self respect if our women especially act as they do in such cases.
Masonic Notes
The assessment for the home is due. Do not fail to forward same immediately.
The grand Secretary will forward to each Lodge a copy of the suspended list next week.
Every Mason should inculcate the spirit of loyalty to the order.
If you are not a good citizen, you cannot become a Mason. Masonry teaches obedience to law and order. It teaches each one of its participants to be among the best citizens in every locality, be a tax payer and a consistent protector of the family circle. Are you of such?
From the large number of letters the Grand Patron is receiving concerning the O. E. S. chapter, this is destined to be the banner year among the ladies. There is no reason why it should not be. Theres
should be a chapter at every well established Lodge.
Under no circumstances whatever allow undesirable persons to petition your Lodge. Keep up the standard of the order by frowning on such persons.
Past Master Daniel Harris of Vienna is bragging about being the first to send in his money, for the Home. He is the first to report to this office and is to be given credit for it. Bro. Harris is a loyal Mason.
Past Master S. B. Wells has informed us of the dedication of Eastern Light Lodge, 229 at Bloomingdale. Several visitors from sister Lodges were present, among them Past Masters T. L. McConnel, and J. D. McMoore. Several timely addresses were made and the ceremonies were conducted according to the ancient custom.
Lanier, Ga.
Mr. James Perry, living near Ellabelle not far from this place on Friday night of the 22nd day of Sept. was shot down by unknown parties and also his his son Archie, a boy about 17 years of age was wounded by a bullet, but is not expected to die. The deceased was a member and officer of Paynesj Chapel A. M. E. Church. It seems strange to man that God in his infinite wisdom to remove from our midst such a one. But He knowest best who doeth best. We believe our loss is heaven's gain. We are in sympathy with the bereaved family. Peace be unto the ashes of the one who sleepeth with within the tomb. C. H. Stewart.

iyate papers wero In the possession of
J first one and then a second gentleman
‘of this city, and finally passed to the
‘hands of a third person.
I propose to draw more especially |
‘from this source some interesting par-
jHeulars in regard to Jones, who was
qmot %ess brave with bis sword than
‘gallant with tongue and pen.
4 ‘John Paul Jones was born at Arbeg-
Mang, Kirkendbright, Scotland, on July
$6, 1747. His father was Johy Paul, a
‘gardener. At twelve he rent to sea\ |
sailing from Whitebayen. He had a’
brother in Fredericksbutg, Va., and he
came to this country before he was
thirteen. He became a mate and mas-
fter of vessels, In 1778, his brother
faving died, he took charge of his es-
“tates, nnd about this time changed his
mame to Jones.
,, Befere the colonies had declared their
Andopendence the maritime aggressions
‘of ‘Great Britain caused the American
{Congress to proceed to reprisals. It
jas therefore resolved to have a small
Sarat force. Jones immediately offered
‘Ms services. He was appointed a First
Lieutenant December 22, 1775. He was
ithe first man to holst the flag which
Was then used.
{ His commission as Captain, issued
‘by order of Congress and signed by
John Haricock, dated at Philadelphia,
“October 10, 1776, says: “To John Paul
Jones, Esquire. We, reposing especial
frost and confidence in rour patrigtem,
fealor, conduct and fidellty, do, by these
Presents, constitute and appoint you
to be a Captain in the Navy of the
“United States of North America, fitted
out for the defense of American liberty
and for repelling hostile invasion.”
! He interested himself in giving opin-
fons as tothe organization of a Navy.
Many of his plans were adopted. He
recommended the appointment of Com-
amissioners of Dock Yards to superin-
tend the building and outfit of ships of
war, Had it not been for hits exertions
it is probable that the Navy would
Dave gradually disappeared.
i The following resolutions of Con-
gress show how directly Jones was as-
sociated witli the adoption of the pres-
‘ent flag:
, In Congress, June 14, 1777.
* “Resolved, That the flag’ of the Thir-
teen United States be thirtcen stripes,
alternate’ red and white; that the
Union be thirteen stars, white in a
dlue field, representing a new constella-
ton.
“Resolved, That Captain J. Paul
‘Jones be appointed to command the
‘ship Ranger.” '
“He was the first to hoist the Stars],
and Stripes. Arriving at Brest, in the
Tanger, he delayed his salute to the
French fleet until he was assured that}.
dt would be returned, and he thus bad
‘the honor of the first salute which the
‘American flag ever recelyed from a].
foreign man-of-war. The battle tag]:
which flew on the Bon Homme Rich |
aré was carried in the Dewey parade |:
in Washington. 3
In a letter he says: “I have not];
drawn my sword In our glorious cause}
for hire, but in the support of the dis]
nity of nature, and in obedience to} -
the genuine divine feeling of philan-
tiropy. I hoisted with my own hards

eration on the ocean. Y claimed and
obtained its Hrst salute from France
before our indepndence was otherwise,
annonneed in that Kingdom, and no
man can wish more ardently to support
its rising glory than myself.” .
‘The English Ambassador obtained an
order for the dismissal from Texel, an
island of Holland, “of a certain Paul
Jones, a subject of the King, who, ac
cording to treaties and the laws of
‘War, could only be considered as a
rebel and a pirate”. Writing of his
remarkable escape, he says: “I had
the-pleasure of laughing at their ex-
Dense ns we passed the Downs, in spite
bf thelr ships of war, and along the
coast In full view of the Isle of Wight.”
In the midst of all this excitement
he gave 2 remarkable evidence of the
gallant side of his nature by writing
some verses tq a lady. This is the
Introductory ‘explanation: —"Verves
written on board the Alliance, off
Ushant, the first day of January, 1781,
Immediately atter escaping out of the
‘Texel trom the’blockade of the Brjtish
fleet; being in answer to a plece writ-

Was indeed not a toy to waste some
idle hours on, but a superior existence
for whom man was born an bonored
slave. Her wildest caprice was to him
law, and her most improbable declara-
ton absolute authority.” A lady of
the French Court—“Delia”—offered: all
‘her-diamonds and effects because sho
heard that Jones’ crew were shut out.
of prize money. Her custom was to sit
before her lover’s portrait “for hours,
battied in tedrs.” She wished to follow ,
‘him to America, and was willing to be
‘the lowest of his crew. In a letter to
the Countess de Lavendahl he fers:
“I beseech yon to accept the within
lock. I gyn sorry that it fs now elghteen
fmehes shorter than it was three
months ago. If I could send you my
heart itself, or anything else that could.
afford you pleasure, it would be my
happiness to do it.”
He visited St. Mary's Isl, intending
to capture the Harl of Selkirk, but
Lord Selkirk was absent. Jones re-
turned to his vessel, but an‘officer and
some of the crew went to the house and
carried off the family plate of tho,
house of Douglas. Subsequently Jones
‘returned the plate. He was quite in-
terested in the Countess of’ Selkirk,
and in addressing her a letter of apol-'
ogy for the conduct of his men, he.
madé this appeal: “As the feelings of
your gentle bosom cannot but be cone
genial with mine, let me entreat yéu,
madam, to use your persuasive art
with your husband to stop this cruel
and destructive war, in which Biltain
can never succeed.”
King Louis XVI. gave Jones a syord.
and created. him a Chevalier of the
Order of Military Merit, and Congress
voted him a,gold,medal. “The chief no-
Bilty of Brinee loaded him with invi-
tations. 7
Congress thanked him in this form
in February, 1781:
“Resolved, That the Congress enter-
tain a high sense of the distinguished
bravery and military conduct of John
Paul Jones, Capttin of the Navy of
the United States, and particularly in
his victory over the British ship Ser-
apis on the coast of England, which
was attended with circumstanées 50
brilliant as to excite great applause
and approbation.”
In 1781 Jones arrived in the United
States. He was elected by Congress
fo command the America, the first ship
of seventy-four guns bullt in this coun-
ty. It was also proposed to create
the grade of RearpAdmiral for him, but
it was not done. He'superintended the
building ofthe sliip. The French lost.
ne of their ships, and Congress pre-
sented the new vessel to Louis XVI.»
ind consequently Jones lost the com:
mgnd. In 1783 he ¥eturned to France,
saving been appointed by Congress
igent of America for European prize
money. He went to Denmark, and in
78S entered the Russian naval ser-
ice, with rank of Rear-Admiral, re-
erving the right to return to orders of.
Songress. He finally removed to Paris
t very bad health, and dled there of
lropsy of the chest on July 48, 1792.
The National Assembly went into
nourning, and a deputation of mem-
ers attended his funeral.
He was short in stature and sfenderly |
nade. His manner was authoritative, |
ind ‘his will absolute. He hada cofh
‘ole and Keen eyes. His weaknesses
rere allied to a kindly nature. Frank-
if and Jefferson testified thelr respect
or him, and. the latter styled him “the

woman standing on a loz. You may

that no human being except an Indian

at once by her clothes—atmost all torn
from her body—that she was lost. I
stalked her ag carefully as I would a

‘Madam, do not be frightened; I am

of stimulants down her throat.
When she revived, I saw that she had

I gave thd soup to her, feeding her as

‘The only thing was, of coirse, to fire

bling and seething, and the next mo!
ment a geyser thirty feet high rose out
of the river. The next moment a man
was shot up into the air by this sey;
ser. When he fell back into the river
they Mshed him out. He was al've
though somewhat dazed, and they be-
gan fo ply him wth questions, suppds:
ing him to be an inhabitant of thq
centre of the earth or perhaps somd
unfortunate who had been swallowed
by a sen serpent and then rejected.
‘They found that hé was a workman
in the tunnel which ts being boreit
under the East Riser. In this tunnel
the air is compressed with great force,
in order to keep the water, from lenk-
ing in while the work is going on, This
high pressure is maintained by means
of doors or alrlocks. In forcing tha
tunnel casing through the silt under,
the river small leaks or vents occa-
sionally result.” But in this case a
"break of unprecedchted size occurred.
Richard Creegan was working ex-
actly over the break at the time, and
the force of tho compressed alr drove
him into and through the breach and
‘ictually np through the very bottom of
the river and into the alr like a shot
fromacannon. No such strange accl-
dent. ever occurred, before, and Cree-
ean swko was not much injured, will
-be a hero for the rest of his life.
HELD PRISONERS BY SHARKS,
Marooned by a couple of man eating
sharks, Willlam Rockett, a groom on
the William Ztegler estate at Collen-

‘The rock was close at hand, qnd, as
the water between the men anc it was
comparatively shoal, they were able to
reach it without the sharks cutting
them off,

Ellis, Mert, Andy and Grip, the dog
alert, snuffing the wind, yet keeping
shrewdly in the background, crossed
in Indian file the shaggy orchard, the

in deep, true furrows. ‘The head of cne

high-handed assault. As old Grandad
Merton deseribed lim, no bear had
ever been quite so black or so huge be-
fore, and to cap the climax there was a
slash of spectral white on bis broad
breast.
“When you see a b’ar marked that
way,” old Merton quavered, convinc-
ingly, “you can make certain he's a
killer.”
Selence docs not :upport old Merton's
theory. Experience 1s taught os that
niost bears are timid and clowuish
creatures, who seck a ving along the
line ,of least resistance; but through
some hereditary taint or: some unfor-
tunate twist given his hature when
young, tbe pariah of Greyhorn proved
‘ most cunning and determined sheep-
Killer in spite of traps and armed|
guards.
It was after“the killing at Merton's
that they tracked him to the rugged

where the scrubby timber died down to

| Zo attempt this stronghold seemed
a futile Inbor to the panting farmers
especlally as thefr mongrel dogs had
fost’ the scent on the wind-washed
Tock. *
Andy had plenty of spare time at dl:
disposal at this season, and he and
Grip put a pair of earnest heads to:
gether, and vowed to oust the pariah
from bls talr, The boy soon gave up

A great thritst-of rock formed his’ ob-
servatory. From it he could command
at close range ‘the side that Greyhorn
turned upon the village. With glass
And rifle he spent many a morning and
‘ong afternoon curled up ‘in the rift;
but somehow he never saw the quarry,
aithoush the continued mortality
amonz the Merinos proved that the
sly beast still went and came,
‘The hours were not tedious. About
hin the mountains rolled thelr vast
bulks, full of shifting shadow and
dally changes of color. The peak of
Greshorn was Parpleularly sensitive to
atriospherie conditions. At times tt
sparkled MWke steel that bad been par-
tially rusted. Unsuspected giant Ike-
nesses to human faces leaped into
sight. One could trace eltles of rocks
In honeycomb clusters, with vein-like
roads radiating away . from them.
When the sky was overcast the peak
was of softest lavender. At sunset it
canght and held a ‘ich spectrum of
colors, °
One warm, windless afternoon Andy
saw the parlah for the first time. ‘The
heat had deen intense at the farm, but
a current of air drew through the fun-
nel-shaped valley below the roost,.and
the two watehers felt its invigorating
stir.
‘The gray roofs of the farmbouses on,
tun distant slopes sparkled lke, fakes
of mica in the sun. Squares of bronzed
pasture land inlald the Jade of the roll-
ing monntaius. In one of these opens,
not far ffom the roost, a flock of sheep
were feoding ta the listless accompani.
ment of an old wether’s bell.
Suddenly the drowsy tinkling changed
toa clamor of notes. The flock opened
like a fan and ran, leaping, down the
slopes, while the bell clanged madly
arid a chorus of frightened bleating
rippled in tbe air.
A big black shape, close under the
trees of’ the forest, stood with one
paw on its victim, and grinned with
bloody jars atethe panle. Then with
a quick snap at the dead sheep, he
lifted it and trotted back” into the
woods.
Tue pariah evidently supped-heavily.
Te remained so long under cover that
Andy began to fear he had stolen away
by somo other route, but at last he saw
a slouching figure come out of the up-
per firs, and slowly ascend the bare
buttresses of Greshorn.
With the glasses he followed its
course as it wound upward, now lost
in a long cleft, now reappearing on.
some open shelf. By a devious path
the bear ascended to a black, ragged
face of rock, and against this blackness
vanished. Andy watched some mo-
ments longer to make sure. Then he
shut up the glasses and stretched his
cramped limbs. He knew now where
the pariah kept house,
After milking the cows the next
morning, Ardy went straight to the
harness room and lifted the rife from
its pegs, From a long box where the
workmen enzaged in excivating a cel-
tar for the new barn kept their kits he
remored a small object “which be
wrapped carefully in cotton batting.
Then he sauntered with assumed in-
difference into the driveway. * He did
not wish to betray too much relish
for the business of bear hunting while
the keen .eye-of his father was upon
him.
The air was chill, with a premonition
of rain. In spite of rapid walking,
Andy did not feel very warm as he
came out on the acclivitles of the
mountain.
The Jank firs climbing above him
stood unusually black and forbidding,
ike somber exclamation points, The
rast uplift of rock had always seemed
to Andy more mysterious and awe-
inspiring than its wooded brothers. It
ras in its grinmest mood now, {ts tip
shrouded fn a gray sea of storm clouds.
Halt an hour of scrambling up the
jow, broken ledges brought Andy to
the rocky face he had-matked the day
before. A wide V-shaped fissure
yawned at ft base. The rubble be-
fore it was trodden into a sort of
macadam, The dry, gray xib-bone of

EVENING HAIRDRESSING.
The evening stf¥le in hairdressing is
what is sometimes known as the court
style, because it is the style required
by the court hafrdresser, ‘The hair is
waved, made glossy with an oil, waved
again and scented and then coiffed
high. It is broadest right at the very
top, so that a crowr can be set upon
it, or a bandeau, or some other head or-
nament.” -
‘There {s a distinct art in doing the
crown style of hairdressing, and it is
not every woman who looks well in it.
‘The hair {s dressed very wide and {s
gradually made to widen, if that ean
be understood, until nt the very top,
«where it is widest. It is dressed in a
tiny low knot, which is almost hidden
tp the undulations of the hair.
‘The low style of hairdressing Is for
women Who need breadth in ‘the lower
part of the face. It is becoming to thin
faces and to faées that are a little
past their youth. It is the style to
ayear with the collarless stock and just
the style to affect if one is going to a
lincheon. There are those who wear
‘it with low-necked evening dresses, and
4t must be admitted that it is*very be-
coming. The bare neck ts not always

Keep it slightly perfamed.

THE DOLL FAIR.
‘A doll’s fair is always of the greatest
interest to children, but it may be no
less charming to grown people if it fs
skilfully planned. Indeed, it-may be
more than a mere fair, and ah admis-
sion fee may be charged that all may
come in, at least to see what'it fs like.
Booths should be made to represent
the different rooms in a doll's house,
and thse who serve in them may be
dressed to represent dolls. The first
booth may be the kitchen, hung around
with saucepans, pots and kettles, with
a stnall range and kitchen table at the
back. .
‘The dining room booth is managed by
some one dressed as a waitress doll,
and about the family table is seated a
group of dolls from father and mother
‘to the baby: All the doll furniture and
the papler-mache feod on the table
may be for sale as well as the dolls.
The third room, the parlor, has sofas,
tables and chairs, and here are the
ynost fasblouable dolls, men, women.
‘and most beautiful young, lady dolls..
Beyond this may be the nursery with
baby dolls being bathed, dressed and
fed, with the cradles, bigh chairs,
nurse dolls and furniture for sale; and
last there may be the sick room, with
white enameled beds and cribs and
lovely trained nurse dolls.
Besides these rooms, there may be|
booths with doll tableaux; a wedding,
of course; a football game with players
in appropriate costume; a golf field
with players and caddies aloe os tr
rying scarf-pin sticks; and tourist par-
ties of dolls with sult cases and shawl-
straps.—Hlarper’s Bazar.
THE CHILD'S NURSERY.
‘The requirement of a nursery or the
place set apart for the children are
‘such as will promote their growth and
development, the same as are required
by all life, from the lowest organisms
up to the most compjex—light and air.
These are the great requisites of the
nursery. According to one's circum-
stances space should be given also. If
in the-city, the nursery should be high
up above the street. It should be a
kingdom in which the ee are the
royal family and‘ the arbiters-of the
réalm. The place should be so remote
that the children can pursue thelr play
without disturbing any one or feeling
the curb of adult interference. Open-
air nurseries on the roof are ta be com-
mended, particularly in large cities
where distances to and from the parks
aré great. The in-door nursery should
be bright and sunny. The human
plant, like ‘those in the garden, must
have’ plenty of sunlight. fo deyelop
wroferly. There should be, therefore,
enough Windows fo let {a the light and
air. If the room is far abdve the street
grill work, high enotgii and strong
‘enough to prevent a child fro fafling
out, should be provided. ‘The walls of
the nursery and the ceiling should be
Painted a pleasing color. ‘The ise af
paper of any kind is a mistake, for the
nursery walls should be washed down
at least onge a month to keep the zoom
sweet and clean, and only a painted
wall will stand such cleaning. The
furniture should be such as-is adapted
to.the needs of the child. ‘There should
bé a refrigerator, particularly it there
‘are bottle-fed children, No soiled linen
should be permitted to dry in the nur-
‘sery—Dr. Grace Peckhiim Murray, in

BEAUTY THROUGH SUFFERING.
You must suffer to’be beautiful, ac-
cording to a French saying, There
secms to be some truth in the state-
“ment, if a lady’s mald in Paris is to be
believed. She has revealed the secrets
of her mistress’ boudoir, or, rather, tor-
ture chamber. The lady berselt is now
beautiful, but one wonders that she is
alive. For months she lay fat on her
back on the floor, motionless, with her
arms close to her side, during several
hours every day. This was, it appears,
to {mprove her figure. Durlng the rest
of the day, for the same period of time,
she sat on a high stool rocking the
upper part of her body’ backward and
forward and from side to side unceas-
ingly. By this process she is sald to
have acquired a statusque throat and a
sylph's walst, The lady's nose, having
a soaring-nature, was corrected and
made Grecian by the constant applica-
tion, day pnd night for months of a
spring bandage. One nostril was orlg-
nally larger than the other, so she
wore a small sponge in it for a year.
Her cheeks have heen filled out and
rounded by injections of paraffin. Her
ears for months were compressed
against the sides of her head by
springs, while heavy welghts were at-
tached to the lobes to produce the re-
quired elongated shape, wheb has been
successfully achieved. Having suffered
this complicated martyrdom for a year,
the Indy, as already stated, is now
beautiful—Argonant.
FHORBIES FOR HEALTH.
The best thing in the world for
neryes is sleep, the next proper food/
the third proper dress. But as good as
any oub of these is a hobby.
How often does one hear the expres-
slon, “Oh, that is So-and-So's hobby?"
spoken rather disparagingly? It 1s the
tendenty of the average mind to regard
4 person’ who has a pronounced enthu-
‘slasm.as a'specles of harmless lunatic,
rather to be pitied. The truth of the
matter 1s that anyone who has any es-
‘pecial fad fs greatly to be envied, as it
probably provides more interest and
amusement for its possessor than any-
thing else. Any decided interest in life,
whether it is dignified by the name of
an occupation or is simply an enthusi-
asm, or even mentioned: slightingly 2s a
fad, 1s eminently destrable.,
“[,have never seen a genuine colle
tor that is not happy when he Is al-
Jowed by circumstances to gratify bis
Yastes,” remarked a student In human
nature, “and a bent in that direction
should always be encouraged It is
a curious phase of our hunfanity that
we will work dillgently to make pro-
vision for our material needs when
we are old, and quite neglect to store
up mental resources that will interest
and amuse us until we are called
hence.” zoe

SUNDAY CLUB. Many surprises brought to light. Reports show a healthy condition.
"Upon what meat doth this Young Men's Sunday Club feed that it has grown to such monstrous propotion?" (apologies to Shakespeare.) Inquiries and remarks concerning the great growth of the Sunday Club are heard on all sides.

Re-opening of Reach
Beach Institute will open next Monday, October 2nd. Prof. and Mrs. Hurd are in the city daily receiving applications of pupils. Four new teachers begin this term, Miss Lincoln, of Bridgewater, Mass.; Miss Kingsbury, of East Bloomingfield, N.Y.; Miss Hobbs, of Chicago, and Miss Fischer, of Wheaton, Ill.
Mrs. Harper, of this city still continues in second and third grades, and if there are applications enough to warrant it, there will be a teacher for the overflow of the second grade, the same as last year, and perhaps a few first grade children with this overflow.
Every possible effort will be made this year to keep "Beach" on the upward track. The uses of tools in woodwork construction and plain sewing will be continued, and Prof. Hurd will add a brief course in cooking if he can plan to get the necessary funds. These three forms of handicrafts, are the common practice in most of the northern city schools, and our people can appreciate their value just as highly as northern pupils. May Beach have prosperous year is our earnest wish.

"I have had poor health for the past four years, pain in the back and groins, and dull, sick headache, with bearing down spains.
"I friend who was very enthusiastic about Peruina insisted that I try it.
"I took it for ten days and was surprised to find I had so little pain.
"I therefore continued to use it and at the end of two months my pains had totally disappeared.
"I have been in the best of health and feel ten years younger. I am very grateful to you."

A dainty stranger wafted into the tilting room of a hotel in Smith Centre the other day, and as the chair was held back for him pulled-out his handkerchief and dusted the seat carefully. Pulling up his trousers we seated, naked, wiped the knife, fork and spear with a napkin, worried a few crumbs off the table and heaved a sign of relief. Without hesitation, the girl who stepped forward to take the knife, dettly wiped the stranger's mouth, which had been drawn into a pucker of dissatisfaction at the imaginary untidiness abounding, and planted a kiss thereon that was plainly heard in all parts of the room. The dalty stranger, when he recovered, ordered meckly, ate hurriedly and left quickly.—Kansas City Journal.
Cheap Nitrogen.
It is reported, says the Engineering and Mining Journal, that by the Eschweller-Wolterseek process for taking nitrogen from the air a ton of ammonium sulphate can be made at a cost of less than half the present price. Prof. Wilhelm Eschweller is in the Technical High School of Hanover, and H. C. Wiltoreek is a Londoner. The process is described as follows: A current of air mixed with steam is passed over a mass of burning peat. Part of the nitrogen of the air unites with nascent hydrogen from the aetam, forming ammonia, which is then absorbed by sulphuric acid.
GET. POWER.
If we get power from food, why not strive to get all the power we can. That is only possible by use of skillfully selected food that exactly fits the requirements of the body.
Poor fuel makes a poor fire and a poor fire is not a good steam producer.
"From not knowing how to select the right food to fit my needs I suffered grievously for a long time from stomach troubles," writes a lady from a little town in Missouri.
"It seemed as if I would never be able to find out the sort of food that was best for me. Hardly anything that I could eat would stay on my stomach. Every attempt gave me heart-burn and filled my stomach with gas. I got thinner and thinner until I literally became a living skeleton, and in time was compelled to keep to my bed.
"A few months ago I was persuaded to try Grape-Nuts food, and it had such good effect from the very beginning that I have kept up its use ever since. I was surprised at the ease with which I digested it. It proved to be just what I needed. All my unpleasant symptoms, the heart-burn, the inflated feeling which gave me so much pain disappeared. My weight gradually increased from 08 to 116 lbs., my figure rounded out, my strength came back, and I am now able to do my housework and enjoy it. "The Grape-Nuts food did it." Name, given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mich.

MONEY-WORSHIP 'NEW DISEASE.
Grafters Alming Either for Prison or for Congress.
"The Easy Dollar and How it is Made" was the theme for a rather startling sermon by Dr. George Cooper, pastor of the First Baptist Church, Media, Pa. Griff. in public and private life and the moral decay of the generation wore the points of attack, and graffters in public office were especially the targets of the minister's shafts. There were many epigrams of unusual brilliancy in the sermon. Extracts from it are interesting:
"Thou shalt take no gift, for the gift blindeth them that have sight and perverteth the cause of the righteous." This matter of common conversation in every circle, should be a matter of instruction in the House of God from a proper point of view.
The age is materialistic. Money, with its power of pleasure and influence, is the great aim of life. "Put but money in thy purse. Fill thy purse with money," is the popular motto.
As Ban Johnson says: "Get money, boys; no matter by what means." Wealth is the end of life. As a result the methods of making money were never so disregarded in a moral war. We have called the worshipers of the almighty dollar. In our money-worship a new disease has broken out—a craze for the easiest dollar at any sacrifice' of moral principle. Graft is the advanced stage of the craze for unearned money. Our whole social fabric is honeycombed with it. Prostitution of office for the easy dollar no longer shocks us.
Graft cannot exist without being discovered after a while. Cleaning up tainted money is the new antiseptic game. Public exposures of grafting men are public benefactions. All honor to the public press in this work. Publicity is the one great punishment that stares graft and bribery in the face.
Success is the standard of life. If a man steals or receives a bribe, is found out and goes to prison, he has only failed in his aim and is unfortunate. If he is not found out and goes to Congress and dies in the odor of bribery, he has succeeded, and we are not to condemn him in the heat of his temptation.

DISFIGURING HUMOR
Brushed Scales From Face Like Powder-
Doctor Said Lady Would Be Disfigured
For Life-Cuticura Works Wonders.
"I suffered with eczema all over my body. My face was covered; my eyebrows came out. I had tried three doctors, but did not get any better. I then went to another doctor. He thought my face would be marked for life, but my brother-in-law told me to get Cuticura. I washed with Cuticura Soap, applied Cuticura Ointment, and took Cuticura Resolvent as directed. I could brush the scales off my face like powder. Now my face is just as clean as it ever was." Mrs. Emma White, 641 Cherrier Place, Camden, N J., April 25, 05'
A' New Boule de Sulf.
In Paris the police have discovered a woman whose peculiar sort of patriotism has been compaired to that of Boule de Sufl in Guy de Manpassant's story. She was arrested recently for having robbed a German merchant of £63. To the Magistrate made a strange declaration. She said that her main object in life was to decoy Germans and to rob them. She went about with them to cafes and music halls, and while affecting to be very interested in them she picked their pockets. In this way she had annexed for several years past over £700. She had picked the pockets of exactly sixty-seven Germans, and she was proud of it. As her reason for thus acting, the woman said that in 1870 her family in Normandy had been completely ruined by the German invaders, who stole her father's cattle, pigs, fowls, and even plate. She was then obliged to go out as a daifrymaid, but not being accustomed to servitude she came to Paris, and began waylaying and robbing Germans. The Magistrate listened to this tale calmly. It made no impression on him, for he sent the new Boule de Sufl back to the depot, there to await trial—London Telegraph.

Rossetti's East Indian Visitor.
Gabriel Dante Rossetti, poet and painter, was once visited by an East Indian prince who said to him:
"I wish to give you a commission to paint a portrait of my father."
"Is your father in London?" asked Rossetti.
"No, my father is dead," replied the Oriental.
"Have you some photographs of him or any portrait?"
"We have no portraits of him of any kind."
"How can I paint a portrait of him, then?" asked the artist. "It is impossible. I could not think of attempting anything so absurd."
"Why is it absurd?" demanded the prince gravely. "You paint pictures of Mary Magdalene and Clirce and John the Baptist, and yet you have never seen any of them. Why can you not paint my father?"
The prince was so insistent that Rossetti yielded in sheer desperation. He painted an ideal head that was certainly Oriental and also regal in its bearing. The prince came to the studio in great state to view it. When the canvas was uncovered he looked at it steadily and then burst into tears.
"How father has changed!" he cried—Everybody's Magazine.
Dying Made Easy.
One of the modern schemes of physical development that has won favor is a systematic method of breathing. A certain inquirer who was interested in the principles of this system recently wrote to one of its professors for a descriptive pamphlet. One of the rules on the first page read as follows: "After the morning bath take a deep breath, retain it as long as possible, then slowly expire." He decided not to try the system.

Profits In Begging.
It is calculated that 4,000 persons make a living in London by begging, and that their average income amounts to about $1,500,000 a year. Last year 1,925 persons were arrested for begging in the streets, of whom more than 1,500 were sentenced to terms of imprisonment varying from one week to three months. Many of these objects of charity were found in possession of sums of money, and even of bank-books showing very handsome deposits—Chicago Journal.
HOW IT HAPPENED.
Anxious Mother—Do you mean to say that you permitted Mr. Huggins to put his arm about your waist of your own free will?
Pretty Daughter—No, indeed, mamma. Considerable pressure was brought to bear, upon me. I assure you—Columbus Dispatch.
ACETYLENE EXCELS AS AN ILLU-
MINANT.
Gas For Lighting Formerly Confined to
Cities and Large Towns, Now In General Use in the Country.
The satisfactory lighting of suburban and country homes requires that the means used shall be convenient, safe, economical and furnish a brilliant, penetrating, effulgent light.
Everybody admits that these are not the characteristics of the candle or kerosene lamp, which, formerly, were the only feasible means of producing light for domestic use in the rural districts.
For generations there was a crying need, a yearning for something better, which was not satisfied. A few years ago deliverance came in the shape of the chemical compound, Calcium Carbide, from which, by the simple application of water, the gas Acetylene is derived. Acetylene meets all the requirements fully and admirably and is being generally used.
Common lime and carbon in the form of coke or coal are the raw materials which, fused in an intensely heated furnace, make Calcium Carbide, and there is no difficulty in obtaining it in any part of the country.
*The machine into which the Calcium Carbide is fed and from which the Acetylene is distributed through the building to be lighted, is but little larger than a thirty-gallon milk can, and of the same general form. It is easily and cheaply installed, either in the cellar or in an outbuilding.
The light from burning Acetylene is exquisite, and lighting experts agree that it surpasses all other known illuminants. It does not taint the air nor strain the eyes, and is not objectionable in any respect. Every up-to-date rural residence should be equipped with Acetylene light.
Proffits by Auto Delays.
"I call it my automobile waist," the woman explained after her caller had exhausted her vocabulary of adjectives in praising it as an example of fine embroidery.
"Your automobile waist? You don't mean to say you wear that lovely thing in a dusty, oily motor car."
"Oh, no," the wearer replied. "I call it that because I made it in our car while I was out driving. After I had been out with my husband a few times I realized that frequent delays, owing to breakdowns, were part of the game. Then I began to provide myself with my own materials to pass the time, these-consisting of a book and my work bag in which were the materials for this waist."
"Whon the car stopped and my husband began fixing the machinery I read for a while. If I saw him laying out his tools and scattering parts of the machine over the grass or the road I knew I was in for a longer delay, and then I would set to work on this embroidery. Don't you think I am justified in calling it by the name I gave it?"—New York Press.
Protection for Rulns.
Great Britain's government has decided to secure and protect for the nation the ancient ramparts erected by Edward I. around the town of Berwick-on-Tweed. These ruins are of great antiquarian and historical value. They form one of the most interesting monuments of the bitter strife that existed for centuries between England and Scotland, as they are situated right on the border. The walls include the old bell tower from which a flaring beacon gave warning to the English farmers of the approach of the bands of marauding Scots—New York Globe.
Pay Days In Norway.
In Norway on pay days saloons are closed and savings banks open until midnight. Servant girls hire for half a year at a time by contract at public registry offices. There is a telegraph box on every street car. One writes the message, puts on the right number of stamps, and drops it in the box. Farmers can borrow money from the government at three per cent. There are practically no illiterates. The average wage earnings are $88 a year. There are more rindeer than horses, more sheep than cows.

Happiness of Thousands of Home Dus to Lydia E. Flakham's Vegetable Compound and Mrs. Pinkham's Advised.
A devoted mother seems to listen to every call of duty excepting the supreme one that tolls her to guard her health, and before she realizes it some derangement of the female organs has manifested itself, and nervousness and irritability take 'the place of happiness and ambiability.
Mrs. Ph. Hoffman
Tired, nervous and irritable, the mother is unfit to care for her children, and her condition ruins the child's disposition and reacts upon herself.
The mother should not be blamed, as she no doubt is suffering with backache, headache, bed-down pains or displacement, making life a burden. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the unfailing cure for this condition. It strengthens the female organs and permanently cures all displacements and irregularities. Such testimony as the following should convince women of its value: Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"I want to tell you how much good Lyda E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done me. I suffered for eight years with ovarian troubles. I was nervous, tired and irritable, and it did not seem as though I could stand any Junger, but I did children to cure for it. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was recommended and it has entirely cured me. I cannot thank you enough for your letter of advice and for what Lyda E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me.-Mrs. Ph. Hoffman, 100 Hmrod Street, Brooklyn, N. Y."
