TWELVE INDICTED
On Charge of Peonage by Grand Jury at Pensacola.
Lot of Foreigners Brought Charges,
Alleging That They Were Held
In Slavery and Also Badly
Twelve officers and employees of the Jackson Lumber Company, of Lockhart, Ala, were indicted by the United States grand jury at Pensacola, Fla., for peonage and conspiracy to commit peonage.
These true bills are the result of an investigation into alleged peonage which existed at the camps of the lumber company some months since, and which the grand jury had been investigating for several days. Three cases of peonage are charged against some of the employees, it being alleged that they went into Walton county, Florida, and forcibly returned to the lumber camps foreigners who had left the employ of the company and who were endeavoring to reach other towns. In one indictment beating and ill treatment is charged. The offenses are alleged to have occurred on July 19, 21 and 24.
Robert Gallagher, the woods foreman of the Jackson Lumber Company, was indicted on two counts of alleged peonage, and one for conspiracy, while W. S. Harlan, the manager of the company, was indicted on two counts of conspiracy to commit peonage. Six of the men were held under bond, for the trial which is to be commenced at once, and six others are yet to be arrested.
LIKELY TO CAUSE TROUBLE.
-Oklahoma Citizens Think Disgraced
Nero Troops May Preve Unruly.
Negro Troops may prove unruly.
It is believed at Fort Reno, Oklahoma, that the four companies of the Twenty-Sixth infantry, which were started for that post Friday night on a special train, are to take the place of negro members of companies B, C and D, of the Twenty-Fifth infantry, recently ordered dismissed by President Roosevelt as a result of the riotous disturbances in Brownsville, Texas, on August 13. A telephone message Saturday from Fort Reno developed the information that the officers at the post there had not been advised of the dispatch of the troops from San Antonio, although infantry had been expected to take the place of the disbanded negro troopers. No trouble had occurred, it was said.
Later it was stated by an officer at Fort Reno that the Texas troops could be sent to Oklahoma as a precautionary measure. The negro troops are soon to be formally dismissed and the citizens of Fort Reno, where the three companies are stationed, fear trouble will follow. The Texas troops come, it is said, as a matter of protection to the citizens. Since their arrival at Ft. Reno, which is two miles from El Reno, the negro troops have been placed under the strictest discipline, being subjected to a roll call every two hours. The formal order for the discharge of the disgraced negroes was issued at Washington Friday. The date of actual dismissal is not known.
ONE KILLED; SCORE INJURED
As Result of Accident to Passenger Train on the B. & O. Road.
One person was killed, at least one probably fatally injured, eighteen others less seriously injured in a wreck on the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern road, six miles west of Blanchester, O., early Saturday.
The train wrecked was No. 5, and the cause, as given out at the office of the general superintendent of the road, was a defective rail.
The engine, postal and baggage cars passed the rail safely, but five coaches were wrecked and rolled down an embankment.
REPUBLICANS HARD HIT.
Ex-Governor of New York Says. Party, Was Wrecked by Heart. R. B. Odell of Newburgh, N. Y., the former governor and ex-chairman of the state republican committee, said, in an interview Tuesday, that the management of the republican state campaign was the most "aslime" that he ever knew. The whole ticket, he said, might just as well have been elected. As the result stands, it looks like a democratic victory and leaves the republican parly in bad shape with a national campaign coming on.

IMMIGRATION CONGRESS
Opens at Nashville and Labor Supply and Negroes of South Are Two Subjects Discussed.
The second annual session of the Southern Immigration and Quarantine Conference was called to order at the capitol in Nashville, Tenn., Monday morning.
The conference was organized a year ago at Chattanooga and its efforts resulted indirectly in the enactment of better quarantine regulations. by the federal government.
Committees on the various subjects to be discussed by the convention were appointed by the chairman.
Aside from the appointment of committees, the day was given to speech making by men, representative of every section of the south and its varied business interests. While the conference, which was presided over by its president, John I. Cox, governor of Tennessee, was called primarily for consideration of matters pertaining to immigration and quarantine, the action of the federal government in taking charge of the quarantines two years ago, eliminated almost entirely that subject from discussion, and the delegates devoted the time to a consideration of methods necessary to securing a proper share of the immigrants arriving in this country from foreign shores. The discussion had not proceeded far when the race question came to the fore, and it occupied the attention of the delegates off and on throughout the two sessions of the day. The sentiment of the delegates on the negro question was manifest early in the day in the burst of applause which greeted Governor Cox's statement in his address of welcome, that the south must deal with the negro; that the negro must be protected and his rights preserved, but that political rights must be taken away from the low and vicious of the race. This sentiment was further endorsed when Governor Heyward of South Carolina, who made the principal speech of the day, was given aviation at the conclusion of his address, which declared that immigration would yet solve the negro problem.
Governor Cox advocated the establishment of a bureau of immigration by each southern state, with sufficient appropriations to send agents to the north European countries, to England, Ireland, Scotland, Switzerland, France, Germany, Wales and Sweden to induce the laborer to locate in the south. The crying need of the south, Governor Cox said, is more and better labor, especially for the farm and the cotton mill. The governor thought it would be a good move to send agents to the northwest states in an effort to turn the tide of immigration from Canada and British Columbia to the south. But conditions in the south, the governor said, must first be made favrable for the new class, the race question at this time, he said, standing a menace to peace and a hindrance to southern development. The problem must be solved by the south, but the aid and sympathy of the north is almost essential.
M. V Richards, land and immigration commissioner of the Southern railway, was the first speaker at the afternoon session. He showed that the tide of the immigration which has flowed for years to the west and northwest had turned southward and with a proper appreciation of the needs of white immigrants the south would easily assimilate the new arrivals.
J. C. Hemphill of Charleston, presented by Mayor Rhett, spoke briefly. He, as did Governor Heyward at the morning session, told of South Carolina's efforts for immigration. Mr. Hemphill said among other things that the south must expect to treat these immigrants as white people should be treated. They must not be treated as negroes. The negroes are being treated well enough, he said, but these new immigrants and those to come must be given better care. Mr. Hemphill favored the strict enforcement of the vagrancy laws as one means of solving the negro problem, or the removal altogether of the colored men from the south.
F. H. Hyatte of Columbia, S. C., vice president of the National Good Routes Association, spoke briefly in favor of better roads as an incentive to immigration.
Col. F. Y. Anderson of Birmingham took issue with Mr. Hemphill's idea of removing the negro from the south. Colonel Anderson favored the paying of higher wages to white immigrants and placing them above the negro as they should be.
George H. Smith of New Orleans reviewed the work of Louisiana in securing immigrants and caring for them, after which Victor S. Clark of the department of commerce and labor, Washington, read statistics, showing the desirability of the Italian over the negro as a plantation laborer and his thrift as a farmer and settler.
SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. NOVEMBER 17. 1906.
NEGRO STATE FAIR
Opened at Macon, Ga., Under Flattering Auspices.
THOUSANDS OF VISITORS
Inaugurated by Monster Parade and Speeches by Booker Washington, Bishop Turner and Other Prominent Men of Race.
Thousands of colored people thronged the streets of Macon, Ga., Monday morning in the opening parade of the first colored state fair ever held. Early in the day they flocked toward Macon on all trains and by noon when the parade started there must have been 25,000 to view the floats.
Shortly after noon there were exercises at Central City Park, in which the chief feature was the address of Booker T. Washington, Mayor Pro Tem. Dure was present to speak for the city, Mayor Smith, having gone to Savannah. President Wright, of the Colored Fair Association, Bishop Turner and other prominent men of the race, also made brief addresses. Thousands of colored and many whites heard the address of Booker Washington. It was received with most favorable comments from both races. He spoke in part as follows:
"What you have done here would have been helpful at any period of our growth. It is most helpful just now when there has been so much in the atmosphere that would tend to discourage those who seek the highest welfare of our people. I congratulate Professor Wright and his associates especially because of the fact that instead of sitting down and whining and complaining and finding fault with, some one else, they have gone forward hopefully, courageously and wisely and placed here this object lesson in the center of Georgia and the heart of the south to demonstrate to the world that the Negro is making progress, but that he has friends among the best class of white people here in the, south who mean to stand by him and encourage him in every effort. This fair, with all that it stands for, serves to make our people feel that there is a chance for them to make progress in this and other southern states.
"There is no hope for any individual or for any race, who begins to despair, who begins to feel that there is no chance for him. There is a chance, a magnificent chance, for every black man right, here in the south who will make up his mind that he will devote his life in righteous directions.
"This fair shows in a large degree what the industrious, law-abiding negro can produce. In a large degree we must become not only consumers, but producers throughout the south. We must emphasize constantly in the family, in the school, through the public press, the importance of teaching all of our people the dignity and beauty of labor. Not only this, we must remember that a large part of the industrial activity of the south is dependent upon us. We have it, in a large degree, in our control. We shall hold on to our share of the agricultural, mechanical and household work so long as we can prove to the world that we can get as much out of this line of endeavor as other races. The minute we fail to do so, some one else will take the place that we now fill. When we fail to get the most out of the soil, out of mechanics, out of household work, or out of any other occupation, that moment we shall be asked to move on and somebody else will take our places.
"We must not only teach the dignity of labor, but impress upon our people thoroughly the importance of being reliable and progressive in their work. Too often the charge is made with truth that the average Negro workman cannot be depended upon for regular and progressive work; that he will labor until he gets a few dollars, and will then spend that in indulgence or riotous living before he returns to his labor. This kind of reputation will damage any race of people."
President Wright Robbed.
Only one untoward incident marked the opening day. This was a bold robbery committed by a Negro hackman and the fair is $500 the loser. President R. R. Wright, late Monday night, started home in a cab and he had with him $500 in money. The money was in a small handbag. He stopped in town for a few minutes to enter a store and when he came back the hack was gone. He reported the matter to the police, and they are now making an effort to find the Negro driver. It was learned that the hackman drove direct to the stable, where he left his hack and changed it for another.
Bishop Turner Grows Emphatic in His Advice to Negroes to Leave This Country and Go to Africa.
At the Southwest Georgia Annual Conference, African Methodist Episcopal Church, held in Bainbridge, Bishop Turner, who presided, addressed the conference, saying:
"I regret to speak concerning the constant press reports and the feeling that seems to exist between the two races, especially in certain sections of our county. The Atlanta episode a few weeks ago was the greatest misfortune that has ever happened to the two races in this section. It was all the worse for the reason that the better classes in both races looked to Atlanta for intelligence, for bearance. Christianity and race respect, the one for the other. This jargon of bad negroes was no excuse, for there is not a city in this country where the better classes of the two races are more rapidly agreeing to stand for law and order. The riot caused more suffering, wounded feelings and business to be injured, families wrecked for all time among the best people of my race in that city than among all the bad negroes in the south. I have advised the race to go to Africa. The Atlanta trouble is the greatest proof of the wisdom and judgment of my project than anything. In the name of all that is good and righteous what do you see in this country for the black man but constant trouble? He is attempting to do two things, to migrate north and west or often retaliate, either of which has a threatening cloud for the future. The bishops, presiding elders, pastors and our school functionaries are being denounced and criticized for not properly advising, preaching to and teaching the youths properly. Now what can be next if these are not proofs why we should not start to Africa or some other place, then I am the most stupid of men."
State Supreme Court So Decides In Decision Just Rendered. Thousands of acres of the most valuable form land in Kansas, together with a large amount of land located in towns and cities of the state, is given to the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway by a decision handed down Saturday by the Kansas supreme court, in the case of that railway company against one Watson.
In July, 1866, congress granted to the Union Pacific Railroad company, southern branch, now the Missouri, Kansas and Texas Railway company, a right of way 200 feet wide from said railway to the south line of the state, a distance of about 150 miles. Afterwards patents were issued to private persons for land through which the railroad runs without excepting the right of way. The persons holding these patents have treated the right of way as being only 100 feet wide. In some cases valuable improvements have been made by them on the outer fifty feet on each side of the railway track and they have occupied the land without disturbance for many years. The railroad company brought suit to oust these occupants, and the court now decides in its favor. Among the larger places touched by the Missouri, Kansas and Texas railway are White City, Council Grove, Emporia, Burlington, Chanute, Parson, Oswega and Chetopa.

Arizona Against Joint Statehood.
Joint statehood for Arizona and New Mexico got a fair majority in New Mexico Territory, but Arizona voted so strongly against the measures that the adverse plurality is not less than 10,000.
Crop of 1906 Will Be in Neighborhood of 2,081,096,000.
The preliminary returns to the crop estimating board of the department of agriculture, at Washington, according to a bulletin issued Saturday, shows the production of corn in 1906 to be 2,081,096,000 bushels, or an average of 30.2 bushels to the acre, as compared with an average yield of 28.8 bushels estimated in 1905.
It is estimated that about 40.4 percent of the corn crop of 1905 was still in the hands of the farmers on November 1, 1906.
THE ONLY SOLUTION
Of Race Problem is Importation of White Settlers
Attending Immigration Convention in Nashville—Resolutions Adopted, Governor Heyward of South Carolina Placed at Head
A Nashville special says: The Southern Quarantine and Immigration convention, which at noon Tuesday assumed its news title of Southern Immigration and Industrial Association concluded its business at the night meeting, the closing session being devoted to the reading of several papers on pertinent topics. The report of the committee on quarantine, which was adopted draling the day, advocated that the conference take no action in advising transfers of maritime quarantines to the federal government by those states that have not already made transfers, it being the sense of the committee that each state should be left at liberty to act as it sees fit. With the mater of quaranine elmilated, the conference devoted its time almost entirely to a discussion of the immigration problem. Under this head the race question early took prominence and did not receive its uqietus until the convention adjourned Tuesday night.
The sentiment of the delegates is largely in favor of welcoming any desirable class of,white immigrants, without regard to nationality, yet there appeared at times some desire to keep the black man, with all his faults, where he is. Possibly the most distinctive step by the convention to wards the securing of a proper proportion of the arriving immigrants for the southern states was the recommendation by the convention that the governors of all the southern states be requested to recommend the immediate establishment of bureaus of immigration.
John Sharp Williams, in a letter read to the delegates, offered a solution of the ubiquitous race problem in the suggested formation of a company with a capital of one million dollars to buy lands in southern states and sell it on time to desirable immigrants. He recommended the establishment of a rural mounted police for the apprehension of the criminal element of the negro. An attempt was made at the afternoon session to reconsider the action by which the convention decided to meet next year at Birmingham, but although a spirited fight was put up by the South Carolina delegation which sought to gain the convention for Charleston, the convention declined to reopen the matter.
Although the convention concluded its business late Tuesday night, nearly all of the delegates spent Wednesday in Nashville, as the guests of the citizens.
The following are the new officers of the association:
President—Governor D. C. Heyward of Columbia, S. C.
Secretary-Treasurer-Dr. J. R. McMullen of Gadsen, Dr.
Vice Presidents—Alabama, Franklin Y. Anderson, Birmingham; Arkansas, G. B. Tucker, Little Rock; North Carolina, D. A. Tompkins, Charlotte; Virginia, W. N. Ruffin, Danville; Florida, Edmund Brobston, Jacksonville; Louisiana, Dr. C. H. Irion, New Orleans, Maryland, Charles E. Redeker, Odonton; South Carolina, J. C. Hemphill, Charleston; Georgia, H. H. T. Tiften; Kentucky, F. W. Vogel; Texas, T. J. Anderson, Houston; Oklahoma, Jesse Dunn, Oklahoma City; Mississippl, A. S. Kyle, Batesville; District of Columbia, M. V. Richards, Washington, Tennessee, Leland Hume, Nashville.
The committee on organization recommended that the association be continued as a permanent organization to be known as the Southern Immigration and Industrial Association, its object being to exercise an educational and supervisory influence over matters pertaining to immigration.
WOMAN'S ASSAILANT CAUGHT.
Negro Lodged in Atlanta Jail to Await Trial for Heinous Crime.
Early Tuesday morning a brutal criminal assault was made on Mrs. J. N. Camp, at her home on Cascade avenue, some three miles from Atlanta, between West End and East Point, by Joe Glenn, a negro man, 30 years of age. The negro was captured soon afterward by county policemen, carried before his victim and identified by her, after which he was hurried to the Fulton county jail, where he will remain until tried for his heinous crime.
Brings Forth Numerous Protests from All Parts of the South—Balk
A Washington special says: As the result of numerous complaints of delayed mail from the superintendents of the southern divisions, the postoffice department has taken the matter up for investigation with a view to taking immediate steps toward remedying the situation.
These complaints, coming in from all parts of the south, are more numerous than they have ever been before. Delays of mail trains are not only getting more and more frequent, but they are longer, resulting in more often missing connections.
The letters and reports which have reached the department within the last few weeks have opened the eyes of the officials to conditions which they hardly dreamed could exist. As a result the postoffice department has taken hold of the matter and put the railroads formally on notice that a compliance with the mail contracts will be exacted. To meet these very conditions the postoffice department issued a formal order on August 3 last, and it is this order which the railroads are now put on notice will be enforced. The order is as follows:
"Office of the Postmaster General, Washington, D. C., August 3, 1906.—Order No. 1131. The act making appropriations for the postal service for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1907, provides:
"That the postmaster general shall require all railroads carrying the malls under contract to comply with the terms of sald contract, as to time of arrival and departure of sald malls, and it shall be his duty to impose and collect reasonable fines for delay, when such delay is not caused by unavoidable accidents or conditions"
"It is therefore ordered, that every railroad company operating a route over which mails are carried shall, on the regular affidavit covering failures to submit promptly at the end of each quarter to the respective division superintendents, railway mail service, show in addition to and separate from such mail train failures, the number of minutes late of each arrival (not time of arrival) of every train carrying mail which has reached the terminus of said route, the terminus of such trains run, or any intermediate point designated by the postmaster general and of which the company shall have notice, thirty or more minutes late as many as ten times during the quarter, the extent, cause in detail, and place of each delay being given.
"This order supersedes that of October 2, 1905.
"W. S. SHALLENBERGER,
As is well known, the government is now paying the Southern railway and connecting lines an annual subsidy of $195,000 for carrying the mail on fast schedule from New York to New, Orleans.
The postmaster general holds that this train is intended not only to carry the mail directly along the line, but it is for connections as well, and the department proposes to see to it that these connections are made.
The department proposes to see to it that other lines shall deliver the mail promptly and make their connections as called for in their contracts, or suffer the penalty.
The protest has become so vigorous that the department finds itself forced to take stringent measures to remedy the evil, and it proposes to do so. Attention is further called to the fact that the department will make heavy fine of the railroad companies for each mail train that reaches the terminus of the route, the terminus of its run, or any intermediate point designated by the postmaster general, thirty or more minutes late as many as ten times in a quarter without satisfactory excuse.

IT WILL PAY YOU TO Advertise in This Paper!
By Senator Robert M. Follette.
T is plain that agriculture in this country has a future here to fore unknown in the world. Farming is now the most distinctive American occupation. It is the source of our safest, most conservative citizenship and highest average of intelligence.
Put the farm in direct communication with the world by rural delivery, the telephone, the electric railway, the travelling library, the township school, the improved highway, and you have given it the essential advantages of the city with-
There will be left the sweet and vitalizing country air, the isolation of broad acres, the beauty of hill and valley woodland and meadow-and living, running water. The charm of the ripening grain coming to its transmitted to us and we preserved it because of its ancient and hallowed as the honest pride in the grazing flocks and the effectuate interest in their growing young, will always be an inherent and uplifting element of life upon the farm. The rich blessing of unconscious health, the joy of wholesome work, that brings wholesome rest and wholesome appetite, are the natural rewards of this outdoor occupation. Nearness to nature, nearness to God, a truer philosophy, a keener human sympathy, higher ideals, greater individuality, will ever be stamped upon the life and character of the country home.
The new agriculture, the new education, new inventions, will give added interest, larger profits, greater certainty of success. They will lighten its burdens, widen its sphere, and ultimately make agriculture the most desirable of all avocation.

This company is duly chartered under the laws of the State of Georgia, and has complied with all requirements of the State Insurance department, therefore all policy holders are protected with all the safeguards that the strict insurance laws of this State seek to protect its citizens.
Its affairs are directed and managed by Negro men of the city of Savannah of leading standing, and who character and reputation are of such as to command the respect and confidence of all the people of that community. The same men that manage this Society are the ones that organized and are conducting the affairs of the first successful Negro Savings Bank in this state, therefore we can readily see that by connecting themselves with this Insurance company their interest will be in safe hands.
By comparing our rules and benefits with other first class companies it will be seen that we offer the most liberal inducements with the largest sick, accident and death benefits to our members than any other company in this business.
That we pay our claims promptly can be testified to by the thousands of our satisfied members.

NEGRO JUDGE WAS ELECTED. Got in While Scramble Was On and Howl is New Raised.
Chicago is just awakening to a realization of what it means to have a neuro judge, and the bowl of protest gained in volume when it was announced that Frederick D. Barnett, the judge in question, would not be assigned exclusively to the trial of cases involving persons of his own race.
"This is not a 'jim Crow' court," declared Chief Justice Olson, of the new municipal court. "I shall assign Judge Barnett where I think he will do the most good."
Barnett was elected to a two-year term as municipal judge as a Republican, despite the fact that he ran 34,000 votes behind the next lowest candidate on that ticket. It is said that Thomas Lantrey (Democrat), who lacked only 495 votes of defeating Barnett, will demand a recount. Barnett was scratched by the Republicans but managed to squeeze in on the Republican landslide because the others failed to bunch their ballots for any one of the Democratic candidates.
McKenzie Furnithes Estimates of Amounts Needed For South
General Alexander MacKenzie, chief of engineers, has reported to the secretary of war that $16,052,431 will be required to complete the engineer work upon the fortifications projected by the board convened under the president's order of January 21, 1905. In stating the amounts, which he says, can be profitably expended during the next fiscal year in river and harbor improvements, he includes the following items:
Savannah river, Georgia, $110,000;
harbor at Tensacola, Fla., $100,000;
Alabama river, Alabama, $100,000; Mobile harbor, Alabama, $372,000; Black Warrior, Warrior and Tombigbee rivers, Alabama, $753,000; Pascagoula river, Mississippi, $200,000.

AN OLD-TIME
5, PUNISHMENT.
Sc coscan.
Paused avruplly in ats task of pra-
nounciag the words, and for a mo-
ment glared along the row of boys
and girls who were “toeing the line”
on the floor of a country schoothouse
one afternoga seme sixty ygars ago,
‘Then he spuke in a tone of deep
displeasize: “This ts a pretty. piece
of sork! Not haif the words put out,
yet, and everybody has missed, except’
Georgie Dele, and he is the youngest
of all! I won't hear such a lesson!
Go back to your seats and take your
speliing-books! I'm going to give
Jou Gifteen minutes to study. It will
“be the first time. to-Uay Tor some of
you. Then I will call the class again,
and the very first one that makes a
mistake shall be punished!”
The exact form of the threatexed
punishment was not specified; but
that was net at all necessary. Every-
body knew. Punishment at that time
and place did pct mean copying
verses, or loss of recess, or being kept
after school, or evan marks—excejit
such as might be left temporart)y cn
some smarting palm by_ the heavy
ruler that lay on the master’s desk.
Biaster Dunton wes a teacher of no
little Jecal fame. It was well under-
stood that he was “2. master hand”
at figures, could set a copy almost as
yuan as print, knew all the rules ef
grammar by heart, although he was
uot unduly hamipered by them in con-
versation, and could parse anything
in Pope’s “Essay oz Man,” or in
“Paradise Lost.” i
Perhaps his ¢reatest lack, educa-
tionally speaking, was in spelling.
But as the spelling in schools of that
day was oral, andsas e could always
hava the book before him when hear-
ing the Tecsons, his. weakness in-that
rospect was hardly wortli considerirg.
His special claim to distinction,
Yowever, came from ‘his “govern-
ment.” There was no school in all
the country round too hard for him
to “keep it out;’? no boy, however
had or big, that drfed to dispute his
authority.
At the appointed time the first
elass in spelling was again called, and
its members came straggling forward,
elbowing one another into piace. The
long row, as finally arranged, was
graduated according to achievement,
rather than height. At the head was
stationed Georgie'Dole, the minister’s
ten-year-old son, who seldom missed
and never misbehaved, while at the
{cot towered Joseph Niles, a bra yny
youth who generally missed, aud who
by his conduct doubtless deserved the
frequent chastisements that fell to his
Jot. *
It was evident that the allotted
fifteen minutes had heen well spent,
and the first two journcys of the
spelling lesson down the line-passed
without aceident.
-All the words that had been put
cut before had now Leen taken care
of. but there remained the as yet un-
tried yiortion of the lescon,
“Vietnats!” shouted the master,
turning to Gcorgle at the head of the
class. .
But instead of pipiag back the
prompt reply expected, Georgie icsi-
tated, blushed, and rolled his big blue
eyes round wildly, as if he had been
taken by surprise.
“Vietua's,” repeated thé™ master,
glancing at the 2ook, and wondering
at the delay.
Then Georgie, after appareatly
‘searching his memory, ventured cau-
tiously, “V-i-c-t-u-a-l-s, “vieluals.""
“Wrong!” cried the master, in 2
tone of dismay. Then, forgetting ix
his astonishment to nass.the word tc
the next, he asked sorrowfully, “Why,
Georgie, how came you to make such
a mistake?”
“If you please, sif,” faltered
Georgie, *i didn’t see that word I
the. spes:ing-book.” ae
“Didn't see it!” roarcd Master
Duntor, his mood changing at once
“Wasn't ft right there befora yout
eyes—second word, third column’
What do you mean by such a prevari
cation as that?”
Just then a knock at the door di
verted the strained attention of the
school, ‘and Mr, Dole, the minister
who Was also school committeeman
was ushered into, the room. He a
once discovered that his son was {1

situation.
“Ab, yes, missed on-‘rictuals,’ you
say,” sald Mr. Dole, glancing over
the master's shoulder at the book.
“How @id he spell it?”
“Tell your father how you spelled
It, Georgie,” said Mr. Dunton,
. "V-l-c-t-u-a-l-s!” sobbed the boy.
“Indeed; and how should it be
spelled, Mr. Dunton?”
“Why, yel-t-a-l-s!” answered th
master, ina tone of surprise. “There
it is in the syoller,” he added, offer-
ling the book.
j “Suppose you look’ up the “word in
Four dictionary,” suggested Mr. Dole,
guistly, pointing to a small and sel-
Ger-vzed book that lay upon the
desk. ‘
Master Dunton was puzzled, Could
it be that the minister, learned man
though ke was} presumed to cast a
ddubt upon the spelling-book?
«Bat he began to turn over the
reges of the dictionary, and at last
he announced, rather pompously,
“Here it is; ‘v-l-t-a-l-s, victuals—the
Darts essential! to life.’ Nothing
could be plainer taan that.”
“Now will you look it up the way
Georgie speited it?” asked Mr. Dole,
with a twinkle in his eye.
‘The master’s face fell, and he re-
newed biz search, with a secret fear
at his heart.
‘This time there was,no note of tri-
ump’ in his voice as he spelled out,
“V-itet-u-a-l-s—food for human be-
ings.” ®
‘Then he turned again to the other
word, stared at it a moment, shut tho
Look, and: pronounced his verdict:
“Georgie is right, and I have niade
a stupid, inexcusable mistake.”
“The best of us are liable to mis-
take,’ said the fainister, reassuringly.
Master Dunton made no reply, but
walking deliberately to the desk, ine
took up the birch ruler.
“Josepir Niles,” he sald, solemnly,
“will you step this way?”
“{ wa'ntt doing anythin'!”’ protest-
ed Joseph.
“No, 1am the ont to be punished
this time, and I must eallton you,
the oldest and largest scholar, to at-
tend to it,” and the teacher handed
the rule. to the unwilling Joseph.
“{ don't want to do ft, Mr. Dun:
ton,” said Joseph, with a look of griet
stch 2s he hed never shown wher
called upon to take the subordinate
part in the performance.
“T do not lke to punish, either,”
said the master, “but what of that’
It 4s often my duty. Now I must be
punished for my good and the good
of the school. What did I say would
happen to the first one who should
make a mistake? Wovld you have
my promise Broken? i cannot carry
it out myself, but you must help me.”
So saying, he held out his palm, and
Joseph, not knowing.how to refuse,
let the culer fall lightly upon it.
“That is not the- way that I have
taught you,” said the master, smiling
grimly. “Lay on, Joseph!” And the
stalwart youth, thus urged, warmed
to his work, and finally did full jus
tice to his training*
«Perhaps that will do,” said Mr,
Dunton, at last, withdrawing his af
flicted hand and rubbing it gently
with the other. “I thank you, Jos
eph. And now we will proceed with
the lesson.” He looked round for
the minister, but that worthy maz
had slipped out of the door, perhaps
In deference to the teacher's feelings.
But that was hardly necessary. Mas

cratic sway.—Youth’s Companton.
JEWISH LANDOWNERS.
In Europe They Hold 248 Times as
Much as They Did 40 Years Ago.
‘The anti-Jew faction in Ruesia de-
clares that even with the present re-
strictions the Jews have managed to
acquire a large portion of land, for
which the following figures are
quoted in the Jewish magaziae, the
Menorah:
“Within the Pale the real estate
of the Jews advanced from 16,000
dessiatins in 1860 to 148,000 in
1870, 370,000 ia 18S0, 527,000 in
1390, and to 1,265,000 in 1900.
“In the kingdom of Polan¢ the
Jews held 16,000 dessiatins in 1860,
148,000 in 1870, 370,000 in 1880,
527,000 in 1890, and 1,265,000 in
1900.
“In European Russia. outside the
Pele Jewish landholding is said to
jnave increased 248 times in forty
years in tie following proportion:
In 1860, 3000 desslatins; in 1870,
18,000 dessiatins; in 18S0, 96,000
dessiatins; In 1899, 262,000 dessia
tins, and in 1900, 745,000 dessia
tins.”
‘According to these statistics the
total holding of the Jews through:
out the Russian Empire, which only
amounted to 70,009 dessiatins in
1860, reached in 1500 the high fig-
ure of 2,391,037 desstatins, out of
which the Jews own as thelr proper-
ty 1,445,000 dessiatins, while the re
maining 926,000 dessiatins are’ rent
ed by them as tenants.

well suited to all seasonable mate-

between seasons’ wear, and also for
cloth and the heavier goods of the
autumn. The scalloped edges of the
sleeves are an especially noteworthy
feature and make an effect that fs as
pretty as it is new.
The Eton is made with fronts and
side-frbnts, backs and side backs.
The pleats are separate and are ap-
plied over the seams, terminating in
scalloped edges slightly below the
Jacket. The neck is finished with the
roll-over collar and the closing {s

sleeves are moderately full, box

Design For Embroidery.
The delicate blossom, of;that pest

a charmingly gracefdl design for em-

developed in white and tho delicate
shades of green natural to stems and

Buttons on Dressy Frocks,
For dressy frocks are lace-like but-
tons with delicate enameled flowers
thereon.
Lingerie For Sleeves.
Lingerie effects still hold for‘chem-
isettes and sleeve ruffles, and add the
essentidl touch of whitencer tho face.
Little Ruftes Appear.
Little rufiles each side of the front
pleat are appearing on some of the
new lingerle blouses. This fad does
not extend to the tailored waists,
however, which are more severe thap
ever. .
Three-Piece Skirt.
The skirt made with a circular
flounce takes absolutely graceful
lines and {s consequently well lMked.
This one has an added advantage of
Including a full length front gore
that gives an effect of height and
slenderness to the figure. Ia the il-
lustration, smoke gray velling is stm-
ply stitched “with belding silk, the
flounce being finished with three
small tucks in which cords are in-
serted, but it Is possible to suggest
a great many variations. All the
materials that ean be tucked with
success are appropriate, and that
means a great many, 28 almost every
fashionable fabric designed for in-
door wear is soft and thin. If the
cords in the tucks are not desired
they can be left plain, or if a still
more claborate effect is wanted there
can be trimming of braid, or ap-
plique used above them, while the
front gore can always be trimmed in
some distinctive fashion or can be
made of all over lace or similar ma-
terial.
The skirt is cut with the front
gore, the circular portions and the
flounce, ‘The circular portions are
tucked well over the hips and the
front gore is cut with extensions to
flounce depth that are laid over onto
the fiounce, forming a pleat at each
side, ‘The flounce itself is circular,

THINKING TOO MUCH.
Danger of Overexertion of the Brain
Pointed Ont by a Specialist.
“The brain is man’s most faithful
friend and: would be man’s best com-
panton {f he understood it better,”
sald a prominent specialist.
“I uso the word brain to compre-
hend what we term the mind and
the process of thinking, and not as
a physical object or a medium which
' directs our actions or through which
we, or the anfmate spirit, directs us,
just as theorists please to take 1t—
| we will not look upon it as a thing
with which we may hold communion
and proceed upgn that hypothests.
“On the stage the prize idiot in the
cast, usually a young nobleman or a
dude, always raises a laugh when
with a vacant stare and set features
he speaks his lines about the effort
of thinking and the wearying effect
such mental precess produces upon
his physical belug. He usually speaks
a greafer truth than cither he or the
audience takes in, for thinking fs an
effort, be the thought in Itself ever
so frothy and ephermeral, and could
we lessen the process of thought at
will, 2s an engineer applies the air
brakes to his train, much of the trou-
ble and diseaso in life would vanish
like the meadow vapor before the
rays of the rising sun.
“It 13 this impossible process en-
tirely to still what fs called thé think-
ing process which 1s one of the most
interesting studies of the specialist,
for it is, plainly speaking, the Jnabil-
ity of the individual to eliminate cer-
tain thoughts, or a certain thought,
from the brain cells, or to still {t into
inactivity, which fills the fusane asy-
Iums, produces nervous wreeks in
other Individuals and causes trouble;
contusion and chaos all around in
everyday life.
“Persons to whom this fact ap-
peals should endeavor to take their
own brain into communion with their
own selves; to set it up as another
person, with whom they may hold
converse, and the objective and sub-
jective mind admits of this through
conscious action, and in some happy
and fortunate individuals through
unconscious action.
“4 little practice will make this
possible to the student, though hts
progress will be by degrees and not
in one jump. He should first under-
stand that thinking is largely a mat-
ter of habit; that the brain 1s one of
the most willing organs in his body
at his comand, and, honest aud faith-
ful ds it is to him, will respond to his
calls upon ft. He should therefore
give it as much needed rest as pos-
sible by the process of sleep, and
during waking hours by not calling
upon ft for thought except when nec-
essary. Tbe average person will put
in a tremendous amount of unneces-
sary thought effort upon the sim-
piest everyday’ matter of life.
“Again, he will allow his objective
mind to cling to one or several
thoughts with porsistent tenacity. In
this event he wears out particular
cells of Ils best friend, and where
this habit is maintained he often be-
comes a nuisance to his friends and
family® by developing into what: is
termed a ‘crank;’ and at flmes he
oxhaysts these same ceils in this man-
ner and lands in the asylum.
“Most people use their brains too
much, either in utter 1dIé waste or
in overconcetrated. work, and when
their best friend besins to show a
rhild resentment by showits signs of
fatigue they ply It with stimulants
which scjence or the distillery have
placed at their disposal. - Even under
these mean circumstances the braln,
disgusted though it is with such shab-
by treatment, goes on doing the best
it can for its owner until temporary
insensibility, insanity, or death en-
sues.
“It will be found that co-operation
with the bzain in the process of still-
ing thought is not as difficult as
would be supposed, for the brain will
remain quiescent,f you will only per-
mit, and become strengthened there-
by, just as it will respond to the lim-
it of exhaustion when called upon.
This theory is very easily evolved
into successful practice, and I com-
mend {, to men of active minds, es-
pecially prafessional men, for it will
be found to lessen nefvous tension,
soothe the temper, promote the ap-
petite and produée good nature in
otherwise nervous, touchy and dis-
agreeable people.” — Washington

to do sp with many twistings of her

Suddenly she stopped, and after a
period of dismayed reflection, looked

Attention has been called to the
fact that in evaporing gold or silver
solution in a porcelain basin, a con-

perts in Nome have disclosed the
fact that the increase in consumption

character is due to fifes, just as the

Proof of Tis Skill.
Tank Miles Day, the well-known
architect and essayist, of Philadel-
phia, stepped carefully from a Per-
sian rug of dull green and alg rose
to another rug of rich blue, for the
polished floor beneath was dark and
smooth and slippery, like ice.
Rather a good. polish there, T
think,” said Me. Day's host, a resi-
dent of Rittenhouse Square.
“Remarkably good tndecd,” said
Mr. Day.
The host just then slipped and
nearly fell, and the architect, with a
Jaugh, went on:
“A friend of mine has beautiful
floors, and the other day he sent for
a floor polisher.
“<T want these floors polished,’ he
said to the man, as he led him about
the house. ‘They are, you perceive,
fine ones. They ought to come out as

Wearied Eyes.
In these days of study and seden-
tary work requiring much use of the
eyes, they often become so tired that
they refuse to do good work. This
is particularly true when the work is
done in a poor light. or when it is
very fine work. Few eyes will bear
such treatment far any great length
of time without being spoiled. The
question fs often asked us, what can
be done in such cases? There is one
remedy for tired cyes that has great
value. It consists in massage with
the hand wet in cold or cool water.
Fil) a basin with it, and standing over
it wet the hand with as much water
as it will hold and apply it to the
‘eyes, at the same time with the
‘thumb and forefinger giving the eyes
a gentle manipulation. Continue the
process for tour or five minutes sev-
eral times a day. The results are;
eften almost marvelous ,

"Sloan's Treatise On The Horse" Sent Free
Address Dr.Earl S.Sloan,Boston,Mass.
Every mother possesses information which is of vital interest to her young daughter. Too often this is never imparted or is withheld until serious harm has resulted to the growing girl through her ignorance of nature's mysterious and wonderful laws and penalties. Girls' over-sensitiveness and modesty often puzzle their mothers and baffle physicians, as they so often withhold their confidence from their mothers and conceal the symptoms which ought to be told to their physician at this critical period.
When a girl's thoughts become slug-
gish, with headache, dizziness or a dis-
position to sleep, pain in back or lower
limbs, eyes dim, desire for solitude;
when she is a mystery to herself and
friends, her mother should come to her
sid, and remember that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound will at this time prepare the system for the coming change, and start this trying period in a young girl's life without pain or irregularities.
Hundreds of letters from young girls
and from mothers, expressing their
gratitude for what Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound has accomplished
for them, have been received by the
Lydia E. Pinkham Medicine Co., at
Lynn, Mass.
Miss Mills has written the two follow-
ing letters to Mrs. Pinkham, which
will be read with interest:

ache, and as I have heard that you can give helpful advice to girls in my condition, I am writing you."—Myrtle Mills, Quawke, IL. Dear Myrtle, (Second Letter.)
"It is with the feeling of utmost gratitude that I write to you to tell you what your valuable medicine has done for me. When I wrote you in regard to my condition I had consulted several doctors, but they failed to understand my case and I did not receive any benefit from their treatment. I followed your advice, and took Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and an now healthy and well, and all the distressing symptoms which I had at that time have disappeared."—Myrtle Mills, Quawak, Ill.
Miss Matilda Borman writes Mrs. Pinkham as follows:
Dear Mr. Pinkham:
"Before taking Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound my periods were irregular and painful, and I always had such dreadful headaches.
"But since taking the Compound my headaches have entirely left me, my periods are regular, and I am getting strong and well. I am telling all my girl friends what Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has done for me."—Matilda Borman, Farmington, Iowa.
If you know of any young girl who is sick and needs motherly advice, ask her to address Mrs. Pinkham at Lynn, Mass., and tell her every detail of her symptoms, and to keep nothing back. She will receive advice absolutely free, from a source that has no rival in the experience of woman's ills, and it will, if followed, put her on the right road to a strong, healthy and happy womanhood. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound holds the record for the greatest number of cures of female ills of any medicine that the world has ever known. Why don't you try it?

AWFUL SUFFERING
From Dreadful Pains From Wound on Foot-System All Run Down-Miraculous Cure by Cuticura.
"Words cannot speak highly enough for the Cuticura Remedies. I am now seventy-two years of age. My system had been all run down. My blood was so bad that blood poisoning had set in. I had several doctors attending me, so finally I went to the hospital, where I was laid up for two months. My foot and ankle were almost beyond recognition. Dark blood flowed out of wounds in many places and I was so disheartened that I thought surely my last chance was slowly leaving me. As the foot did not improve you can readily imagine how I felt. I was simply disgusted and tired of life. I stood this pain, which was dreadful, for six months, and during this time I was not able to wear a shoe and not able to work. Some one spoke to me about Cuticura. The consequences were I bought a set of the Cuticura Remedies of one of my friends, who was a druggist, and the praise that I gave after the second application is beyond description; it seemed a miracle, for the Cuticura Remedies took effect immediately. I washed the foot with the Cuticura Soap before applying the Ointment, and I took the Resolvent at the same time. After two weeks' treatment my foot was healed completely. People who had seen my foot during my illness and who have seen it since the cure can hardly believe in their own eyes. Robert Schoenhauser, Newburgh, N. Y. Aug. 21, 1905."

One of the greatest inventions of the present time is the suction machine for renovating and cleaning hotels, apartment houses, etc. No sweeping is necessary. The power necessary to operate the apparatus is furnished by an engine fitted with a wagon and supplied by means of rubber hose. The dust is forced into the machine by suction, it being possible to clean every part of the room, ceilings, floors, walls, furniture, etc. Up to the present time this machine has been used for large operations only. Now a Chicago inventor has patented a similar machine, which can be used in every household. The power apparatus is stationed in an outhouse or other out-of-the-way place and the renovator, reduced in size so that

it can be manipulated by anybody. Expert skill is not required. In cleaning the rooms the dust is gathered up in the collector, and when the entire house is cleaned the renovator is taken to the cellar and the dust removed. Its superiority over the ordinary method of sweeping will be at once apparent.
Little Susie's Gain.
After a week at the seashore, little Susie was being welghed.
"When she came she tipped the scales at forty-nine pounds," said Uncle Jack, "and now she weighs forty-two."
"Oh!" cried Susie, "I've gained t-w-o pounds—backwards!" — Harper's Weekly.

Aboriginees of Japan and Their Tattooing.
The aboriginees of Japan, the hairy Alnus, now number but a few thousand and live on the island of Yezo. Their women tattoo their lips. "The process of tattooing," writes Oliver Bainbridge, "is very primitive and simple and it takes several years to properly decorate a woman's lips, forehead and fingers. Some ash bark is procured and put into a pan to soak for a day or two; then the bark of the birch is burned under the pan until the bottom is well blackened. Next the operator takes a knife, cuts a few dashes into the part to be tattooed, rubs it well with the soot and bathes it carefully with the ash bark liquid. The forehead, hands and arms are only tattooed after marriage."
Mr. Bainbridge, who is well known as an "explorer of odd places," spent some time among the hairy Alinus and secured valuable information and many interesting photographs of the queer race.—Chicago Chronicle.
Kansas Growing Up.
It is a natural thing to ask a man, when introduced to him, what State he came from. The fact is, however, that Kansas is getting to have a big nativeborn population. When the first census was taken in 1860 there were nearly a thousand more people living in Kansas who were born in Missouri than there were who had been born on Kansas soil. Only one-tenth of the people in the State then, including all the babies had been born on Kansas soil. According to the last census, however, there were nearly half the people living in Kansas who were born in the State. By the time the next census is taken two-thirds of the people in the State will be native born—Kansas City Journal.
IT'S THE FCOD.
The True Way to Correct Nervous Troubles.
Nervous troubles are more often caused by improper food and indigestion than most people imagine. Even doctors sometimes overlook this fact. A man says:
"Until two years ago waffles and butter with meat and gravy were the main features of my breakfast. Finally dyspepsia came on and I found myself in a bad condition, worse in the morning than any other time. I would have a full, sick feeling in my stomach, with pains in my heart, sides and head.
"At times I would have no appetite for days, then I would feel ravenous, never satisfied when I did eat and so nervous I felt like shrieking at the top of my voice. I lost flesh badly and hardly knew which way to turn until one day I bought a box of Grape-Nuts food to see if I could eat that. I tried it without telling the doctor, and liked it fine; made me feel as if I had something to eat that was satisfying and still I didn't have that heaviness that I had felt after eating any other food.
"I hadn't drank any coffee then in five weeks. I kept on with the Grape-Nuts and in a month and a half I had gained 15 pounds, could eat almost anything I wanted, didn't feel badly after eating, and my nervousness was all gone. It's a pleasure to be well again."

GOOD ROADS
Construction of Letter Roads.
One of the most significant sections in the report of the British Motor Commission refers to the dustraising qualities of automobiles, which, the report states, "has been the source of far more popular indignation than excessive speed or dangerous driving." Unquestionably one of the most vital problems connected with automoboling is the dustless highway, and to secure it is a proposition that demands the most serious attention of our road builders. The British Commission admitted that it could not suggest how the musiance could be alleviated by any alteration in the form of the car, and its deduction was that the remedy existed only in the construction of better roads.
It recommended, nevertheless, that all fees accruing from automobiles should be expended in the improvement of existing roads with the particular object of prevention of dust. The automobile, to a great extent, makes the road untenable for cyclists and pedestrians, and we might as well admit the fact without resorting to subterfuge. Of course, the automobile is here to remain, and to become the most general method of transportation for pleasure and commercial purposes, and if the present highway does not answer we must provide a road surface that will meet the new conditions. We shall be pleased to print any comments that careful thinking automobilists may have on this most important subject.—The Automobile.
Permanent Stone Roads.
Massachusetts, New York, New Jersey and many other States have spent vast sums of money in building permanent stone roads. These roads have been a great help to the farmers living near them in reducing very materially the cost of transporting the products of the farm to market.
The little State of New Hampshire at the last session of the Legislature enacted a law, largely by the influence of the Grange, appropriating $750,000 to be expended within the next six years in making permanent improvements upon the public highways of the State. The bill was so drawn that a like sum must be appropriated by the several towns, asking for State aid, so that great good must be the result of this movement for better roads in New Hampshire. When we consider the vast sums of money that have been expended by the National Government to improve the waterways of the country by improving the rivers and harbors, and the vast amount of government lands that has been given to corporations to aid in building of great railroad lines to develop the country, is it any wonder that we think that we are asking for nothing but what is just and right when we ask Congress to pass a bill giving national aid to the various States which are willing to appropriate a like sum to assist in the building and maintenance of the public highways. The country roads over which the farmer transports his produce of all kinds are the feeders of the railroads and steamboats and are as justly entitled to national and State aid as they are.
Missouri's Convention.
At a meeting of the Missouri State Good Roads Convention, held at Chillicothe, Mo., the creation of the office of State highway commissioner was favored, and it was decided to hold the next meeting during the winter of 1906-7, during the session of the State Legislature. The meeting will be held at Jefferson City, the State capital.
No permanent organization was formed at Chillicothe, though many prominent good roads men were present at the meeting from more than fifty of the 111 counties o. the State. Various plans for promoting the construction of good roads were discussed, including changes in the mode of taxation and changes in the State constitution. Politics were conspicuously absent from the meeting.
Practical talks in the art of road building and road repairs and maintenance methods were given by experts on these 'subjects, and there was a large display of road machinery. A. N. Johnson, highway engineer of Illinois, outlined the road system in operation in his State, stating that though only in operation for a year the system had proved highly satisfactory. Much of his address was devoted to the subject of dirt roads, and he declared that many roads that not now fit to travel on could be made good by dragging. D. Ward King, of Maitland, Mo., inventor of the split log drag, which bears his name, was present.
The interest taken by farmers in the good road question was exemplified by the case of John Harrison, who has a farm near Fayette. Mr. Harrison has made a standing offer to contribute $1500 toward the construction of a road passing his farm, stating that he is isolated for four months in the year owing to the impassable state of the roads. The convention finally declared itself in favor of a change in the constitution as a means of road improvement, though it will take two years to bring this about.—The Automobile.
THE PULPIT
A SUNDAY SERMON BY THE REV IRA W. HENDERSON THE FAMOUS. DIVINE.
Subject: Personal Experience. stand by the truth revealed to him
Brooklyn, N. Y.—Preaching at the Irving Square Presbyterian Church on the theme, "Personal Experience," the Rev. I. W. Henderson, pastor, took as his text Jno. 4:42: "Now we believe, not because of thy saying; for we have heard Him ourselves, and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world." He said: The final proof of the value of the Gospel to the individual lies in personal experience. The one test which, above all others, warrants a man to hall Jesus or to deny Him, is that of real knowledge directly acquired. No man is fit to taunt Christianity as a farce who has not first observed the rules Incidental to the living of the Christ life. He is the best advocate of the beauties of the Christian economy who has been loyal to his Lord's commands.
The consensus of Christians is the result of a common experience. We, as citizens of the kingdom of God, hold fast and together certain formulas of faith because we have, each for himself, as individuals, found valuable for us those working principles that we maintain. The church universal represents, in its fundamental dogmas, the optimistic of myriad men who have, through the process of individual experience, reached a common ground of belief. The church catholic is divided upon secondary tenets according to the varieties of secondary Christian religious experience among men who assert allegiance to the central truths. In the broad sense, all of us who believe in and serve Christ, are Christians because we each recognize as a personal experience the truths which Christianity asserts to be fundamental. I am a Presbyterian and you are a Methodist, not because our views are different at the vitals, but because our secondary experiences are unlike. The Christian Church is an aggregation of men who see Jesus with the same eye and who find in Him and in His power in their lives bonds which link them fast. And any sect or denomination of Christians is but the congregation of some of the followers of Christ around a secondary tenet that is alive with their own peculiar doctrine, the result of an individual experience. At the bottom of it all the moving principle is personal experience. No man is a good Christian who has not had contact with Christ. No man can appreciate the genius of Presbyterianism save he who has, had the experience common to all who hold that creed. It is a wise thing for a man who honestly differs from his fellow men; it is a sensible thing for a Christian who earnestly and reasonably disagrees with his fellow followers of Christ; to examine his conclusion—that is to say, his creed, his dogma, his tenets, as you will—and determine whether or no they mirror correctly his personal experiences. But merely because a man finds himself at variance with the world of men about him is no sign that he has misinterpreted his experiences or is wrong. The prophets were persecuted not because they were wrong, but because they framed from the facts at hand conclusions that the Hebrews did not care to admit asenable. Galilee got into trouble because Ptolemaists thought him crazy. The world was called flat until a dauntless soul declared it round. Luther would never have nailed the ninety-five theses to the door of the church at Wittenberg had he not been true to the truth as he saw it. And these men were, as are many men to-day, dead wrong in their beliefs as measured by the standards of the past.
The results attained in all departments of knowledge are the outcome of the personal experience of individuals. A scientific law may be the declaration by a single man of truth proven out of the records of his personal experience, unaided and-unverified by the experience of any other man—not infrequently at first it is. But this much is sure: that any law that has the assent of any society is based entirely upon the experiences of individual men who have perceived and been influenced by similar phenomena in their separate lives.
All the knowledge that we have and all the laws that we accept at second hand are, at bottom, founded upon the research and personal investigation and experience of some single man or some set of men. To say that we accept many truths at second hand in no way injures our argument. All that we receive upon the assertions of other men is so taken because we have faith in the validity of their conclusions as being the direct result of their personal experiences. Repetition is never so inspiring or convincing as is the dictum of the first source. And the only value that re-satement has is gained from the personal knowledge out of which it springs. By virtue of the multiplicity of the demands on our time we have to rest much of received truth upon the decisions of other men; but, in the providence of God, we may prove accepted truth if we will in the investigation and the delineation of our own personal experiences
No man, however, is entitled to affirm or to deny the value of a declared truth unless he has either met to the full the requirements of each condition or accepted the opinion of some original investigator who has fulfilled all incidental demands. How silly it would be for a man, untutored and universed in the sciences, to set up his opinion, without deep and searching investigation, against the declarations of a Darwin, a Tyndall or a Wallace. And on the other hand how unmany it would be for a convinced student, who has, after arduous and painstaking effort, reached conclusions at variance with all the theory of all his masters before him, to finch to state and to
stand by the truth revealed to him
by God. z
If, in the realm of science, experience shall be held to be the test of value of opinion, how much more necessary will it not be in the sphere of the religious life. It is easy for the scoffer to mock at the joys and the comforts of the Christian life. There is no difficulty for the man who really wants to find men who, after half-hearted service and misinterpreted, misunderstood experiences, pronounce the life within Jesus a fraud. But is the cry of the maligner of Christianity legitimate and well based? Has any man a right to disparage a system of living of which he has no experimental knowledge or of which his sole information is unscientific or fraudulent? Which shall be mightier, the testimony of the soul which having fulfilled, the conditions is satisfied and sure, or the tale of woe of the charlatan who never met of the charlatan who never measure?
But if it is needful to be rich with experience to deny the grace of the God blessed life, it is still more necessary to be saturated with a deep, Christly, spiritual, personal experience in order to convince others of its value and to enjoy what Beeher called "its privileges and prerogatives." The holy men of Israel knew the beauty of Jehovah and the glory of a life near to Him because they enjoyed and practiced experimental communion with Him. Jesus proclaimed the majesty of the Father and the loveliness of a God-inspired career because He dwelt within the presence of His King. Paul paints the manifold blessings of the Christian life because he was a thoroughgoing Christ-man. The Samaritan woman received Jesus as the prophet for whom her heart longed because she had seen Him face to face. And her brethren from the city believed on Christ since she repeated to them her own short, graphic story concerning the truth she had both heard and seen. There we have it, faith founded on fact and on fact repeated—that is to say, upon personal experience.
All preaching and all testimony which strikes home, to the heart is the story of the personal experiences. The first principle of a reaching talk is, to sum it up in a sentence, tell only the facts of life. And if in the telling of the Gospel story and in the application of the truth to the demands and the problems of to-day this element of dead certainty is of such immense importance, who shall deny its insistent necessity in order to the enjoyment and appropriation of the Gospel blessings by the individual.
The Christ life must be a live, first-hand, personal experience or it is useless. You may take your food prepared or predigested as you will. You may take your knowledge of the scientific disciplines by role. But no man can know Christ or enjoy a rich and enriching spiritual communion within Him who does not live his life within Jesus for himself. "Now we believe, not because of thy saying; for we have heard Him ourselves and know that this is indeed the Christ, the Saviour of the world," said the men of Sychar. And this is, as in the nature of the case it must be, the testimony of every man who will enter or who has entered into the enjoyment of the "privileges and the prerogatives" of the Christian life. No other method of entrance is so satisfactory. No other testimony from the citizens of the eternal kingdom is so influential and convincing. No other knowledge is so certificating to the intellect. No other evidence is so soul inspiring. Without a vision of the Christ no man may witness worthily for Him. Blessed with a personal experience we may lead the multitudes to God.
A Christian who is devold of a personal experience with the presence and the personality of Jesus Christ is a paradox. Strictly speaking there is no such thing as a Christian life apart from the immediate influence of the Lord Jesus. We might as well call a man a sinner and without the pale of the kingdom of God, as we have it in the economy of Jesus, as to call him a "nominal Christian." We speak of nations as nominally Christian because we do not wish to be unkind in our terminology. In reality a nation that is nominally Christian is usually a nation that bears no more resemblance to Christ, His plans, His teachings, His character, than is expressed by the fact that for convenience's sake and for purposes of international differentiation, we so denominate it.
The man who hopes to win men with a message that is other than born of a personal and direct inspiration from God Almighty is an anachronism. It may have been possible at some time in the dark ages of history to win men to Christ by hear-say testimony, but it cannot be done to-day. The world wants the message of the eye witness, the report of the man who has heard the truth with his own ears. Humanity desires the testimony of the scientific investigator, the man who has tested the truth and has found it real.
"Now we believe—because—we know." This is the gist of the text and the outstanding truth of that joyous Samaritan day. This is the test of faith. A vote of confidence to the Christians who can say it. Joy unspeakable to the sinning man who finds therein salvation for his soul.
Everyday Religion.
"I have so faced the habit in my own mind," said Stonewall Jackson, that I never raise a glass of water to my lips without asking God's blessing. I never seal a letter without putting a word of prayer under the seal. I never take a letter from the post without a brief sending of my thoughts Heavenward, I never change my classes in the section room without a minute's petition for the cadets who go out and those who come in."
The names of fabrics are in many cases derived from the place where they were first manufactured; in order, the name is bestowed in honor of the place where it first became known to commerce, or from the materials composing its texture. Thus the name of muslin is derived from Mosul, in Asia.
Cambric $\triangle$ comes from Cambal; gauze from Gaza; baize from Bajac; dimity from Damletta and jeans from Jean.
The name damask is an abbreviation of Damascus; satin is a corruption of Zaytown, in China.
Velvet is the Italian vellute, wooly, and is traceable further back to the Latin vellus, a hide or pelt.
Serge comes from Xerges, the Spanish for a certain sort of blanket.
Bandana is derived from an Indian word signifying to blind or tie. Alpaca is the name of a species of llama from whose wool the genuine fabric is woven. Calico is named for Calcuta a town in India, where it was first printed. Blanket bears the name of Thomas Blanket, a famous English clothier, who aided the introduction of woolens into England in the fourteenth century.
Different parts of the country have very strongly marked tastes as to the color of cheese.
You could not sell at any price in Birmingham a cheese that is in great demand in Coventry, and if you sent some of the kind demanded in Norfolk to Manchester it would at once be returned.
East Anglia demands a cheese of brick-red color, while Lancashire must have "Manchester white," and the other northern counties go in for a golden-tinted cheese. Nearly all cheese is prepared to the carefully worded order of the probable buyer.

It will be to learn that the leading medical writers and teachers of all the several schools of practice recommend, in the strongest terms possible, each and every ingredient entering into the composition of Dr. Plerco's Golden Medical Discovery for the curo of weak stomach, dyspepsia, catarrh of stomach, "liver complaint", torpid liver, or billousness, chronic bowel affections, and all catarrhal diseases of whatever region, name or nature. It is also a specific remedy for all such chronic or long standing cases of catarrhal affections and their resultants, as bronchial, throat and lung disease (except consumption) accompanied with severe cough. It is not so good for nete colds and coughs, but for lingering, or chronic cases it is especially officious in producing perfect cures. It contains Black Cherry bark-Golden Seal root, Bloodroot, Stone root, Mandrake root and Queen's root—all of which are lightly praised as remedies for all the above mentioned affections by such eminent medical writers and teachers as Prof. Burtholow, of Jefferson Med. College; Prof. Hare, of the Univ. of Pa. Prof. Finley Woodwood, M. D., of Bennett Med. College; Chicago; Prof. John King, M. D., of Cincinnati; Prof. John M, Sedduer M. D., of Cincinnati; Prof. Edwin M, Hake M. D., Hahnemann Med. College, Chicago, and scores of others equally eminent in their several schools of practice.
The "Golden Medical Discovery" is the only medicine put in for sale through druglists for like purposes that has any such professional endorsement—worth more than any number of ordinary test-monitors. Open publicity of its formula is the best possible guaranty of its merits. A glance at this published formula will show that "Golden Medical Discovery" contains no poisonous, harmful or habit-forming drugs and no alcohol—chemically pure, triple-refined glycerine being used instead. Glycerine is entirely unobjectionable and besides is a most useful agent in the euro of all stomach as well as bronchial throat and lung affections. There is the highest medical authority for its use in all such cases. The "Discovery" is a concentrated glycerine extract of native, medicinal roots and is safe and reliable.

It should be kept over the seat of uneasiness for several days—in obstinate cases, for perhaps a fortnight." "For pain in the back wear an Allcock's Plaster constantly, renewing as it wears off.
