VOL. XXII. BOQUET FOR TEDDY In Shape of Indorsement by Cotton Association Second Day's Session of Annual Meeting at Birmingham Taken Up by Prominent Speakers, Two Governors Among Them. Speeches of two distinguished southern governors were the features of the sessions of the Southern Cotton Association at Birmingham, Ala., Friday. Governor-elect Hoke Smith of Georgia spoke during the morning, and his words, urging united effort in seeking to control their cotton situation, were enthusiastically received Former Governor D. C. Heyward spoke in the afternoon, and his remarks were along the same line, although, as president of the Southern Immigration and Industrial Association, his remarks were more general than those of other speakers. Joseph H. Hoadley was introduced in the afternoon and spoke of the workings of the New York cotton exchange. He said there were honest men on the exchange, strange as it might seem to some of his hearers, but he added that there were also human vultures up there, whose interests were entirely selfish. A feature of the afternoon session was the adoption by a unanimous rising vote of a resolution which commends President Roosevelt for the stand he has taken in the Brownsville matter. A special dispatch will be sent the president to this effect. The resolution was presented by C. R. McCreary of Opelika, Ala. A largely increased attendance was present at the opening of the second day's session. When President Harvle Jordan called the convention to order he immediately proceeded to introduce the first speaker of the morning program, Governor-elect Hoke Smith of Georgia. Mr. Smith's subject was "Practical Means of Making Lint Bring the Farmers a Just Price." Mr. Smith said, among other things: "Realizing how important it is that the farmer should receive for his lint cotton a just, price, we should find its true value, and we should seek to remove as far as possible those influences which cause fluctuations in the market and which depreciate the price whilst it is in the hands of the farmer. "Lint cotton is the great raw material from which the people of the world are clothed. "Lint cotton must be sold at a price at which it can successfully compete with wool, flax and silk as the raw material out of which clothing and similar goods are to be made. "The true farmer should be informed as to the true value of his cotton. He should reach a decision as to the price it is worth, and he should not sell until he receives that price. We must get away from the practice of letting the man who has the cotton to sell leave to the man who proposes to buy the exclusive right of determining what he will give for the produce. The man who raises the cotton should fix the price at which he will sell." F. H. Hyatt of Columbia, S. C., treasurer of the Southern Cotton Association, was the second speaker of the morning. His subject was "How Shall We Finance the Cotton Crop." An address by S. A. Witherspoon of Meridian, Miss., on "Probable Profits to Stockholders in a Corporation to Buy and Sell Cotton and the Best Plan to Operate On," was the last set address of the morning program. Former Governor D. C. Heyward of South Carolina addressed the convention on "Best Method of Obtaining Necessary and Desirable Immigration for the South." Friday night's session was devoted chiefly to business matters. HAND PRINTERS MUST GO. So Says Public Printer Stillings in an Order Just Issued. Public Printer Stillings has issued a general order in which he says the days of hand composition are fast coming to a close. The order was issued to call attention to the government printing office's night school in instruction on typesetting machines. The instruction will be free, but no pay given for the work accomplished. In the event of reduction in the force of hand printers, those who can operate the machines will be given preference. The Savannah PRESIDENT IS REBUKED By Republican Senators on a Resolution Endorsing His Course in the the Brownsville Affair. The anti administration senators on the republican side are jubilant over the result of their rebuke administered to the president Tuesday, says a Washington special. They have passed the Foraker resolution providing for an inquiry at Brownsville, and are hugging themselves in delight. By turning down the resolutions of Mallory of Florida, and Culberson of Texas, which both sought to endorse the president's action in the Brownsville affair, the republicans have practically stated that they do not endorse that action, and that the discharge was without constitutional authority. The democrats, with the exception of Tillman and Blackburn, sustained the president throughout. Blackburn, the floor leader of the democrats, on Monday, expressed himself satisfied with the Foraker resolution, and to be consistent he held to that position throughout the balloting Tuesday afternoon. The resolution of Senator Mallory declared that the president's action was within the scope of his authority and power, and the proper exercise thereof. The motion to table this resolution was carried by a vote of 42 to 22. Senator Culberson's resolution stated that "the president was authorized by law, and justified by the facts in the discharge without honor." This was also voted down by a yea and nay vote. The republican recalcitrants had summoned up their courage, they had forgotten the shadow of the big stick, and they refused to vote their approval of the action of Theodore Roosevelt. 'No one who knows the man can believe for a minute that he will be contented with this action of the republican senators or accept the explanation that the parliamentary situation on the floor made it necessary to withhold approval of his action in dismissing the nero soldiers.' Regardless of what action was taken on the Foraker resolution providing for an investigation into the facts, in which inquiry the Ohio senator admits the question of constitutional authority, is intricately interwoven, the president has declared that he will stand on his order until the stars fall; and that no one else can suspend it. D18M18SED BUCHANAN CASE. Supreme Court of United States Is Without Jurisdiction. The case of O. W. Buchanan against the state of South Carolina, involving a question as to the amount of the salary of Buchanan, as a state circuit judge in South Carolina from 1899, was dismissed Monday by the supreme court of the United States for want of jurisdiction. The dispute was due to the fact that there was doubt as to which of two South Carolina statutes controlled in the matter. One of these, a general law, was approved December 22, 1903, and fixed the salaries of circuit judges at $3,000 per year, while the other, a regular appropriation bill, which became a law the next day, provided for them at the old rate of $500. The suit was brought for the difference, amounting to $500 a year. The extra sum was denied by the supreme court of South Carolina, and the higher court's decision has the effect of affirming that ruling. SENATOR BAILEY RE-ÉLECTED. Beats His Enemies by One Vote in the Texas Legislature. United States Senator Joseph W. Bailey was reelected United States senator Tuesday by a vote in the two branches, of the Texas state legislature of 108 to 45. In the state senate the vote was 19 in favor of Senator Bailey, and 10 against him, and in the lower house Senator Bailey received 89 votes and 35 were cast against him. Eighty-three votes were necessary to a choice. FLOOD AT ITS HIGHEST. Grest of Ohio Overflow Takes in 240 Blocks at Louisville. The worst seems to be over in the flood situation in Louisville and vicinity. The river, at 10 o'clock Monday night, was rising very slowly, and had just passed the 40.9 mark. About two hundred and forty city blocks are submerged in Louisville in the territory running from the Country Club at the extreme eastern end of the city to Parkland. There has been no loss of life, but suffering has been acute on account of the cold. SAVANNAH. GA.. SATURDAY. JANUARY 26. 1907. FARMERS' UNION Holds Forth in Annual Convention at Georgia Capital. Thousands Hear Speech of Hon. Tom Watson and Endorse Action of the President In Discharging the Negro Troops in Texas. Fully one thousand officers and delegates of the Farmers' National Union, representing every southern state and a large number of western and northern states, were gathered about the ern states, gathered in convention at Atlanta Tuesday morning. The convention was called to order by President Barrett, the doors were closed, after which divine blessing was invoked by Rov. L. N. Holmes of Louisiana, national chaplain of the union. True to the teaching of the simple faith of country life, the delegates sang with fervor that old familiar hymn, "How Firm a Foundation, Ye Saints of the Lord." President Barrett then made his opening address, arousing the greatest enthusiasm in the convention, applause interrupting the speaker at frequent intervals. Then the convention immediately entered upon the consideration of business, the first matter to be considered being the appointment of committees. Sevral important resolutions were adopted at the initial meeting, however. The first of these was a resolution introduced and adopted in response to a telegram from the National Wool Growers' Association, now in session at Salt Lake City, Utah, the terms of the resolution pledging the union's co-operation with the Wool Growers' Association for the purpose of establishing, mills, the products of which are to be sold to the stockholders. Another resolution unanimously adopted was one endorsing the antibucket shop bill, known as house of representative bill No. 2,328, introduced in congress last January by Representative R. B. Macon of Arkansas, and urging the various unions throughout the country to memorialize their representatives and senators in congress to support the bill. The purpose of this bill is to absolutely prohibit gambling in any of the products of the farms, stocks, bonds, etc. So long have the farmers seen their product of their toll made the sport and stakes of the gamblers that their satisfaction in adopting this resolution was attested by long applause, and every indication of intense satisfaction. The convention also adopted a resolution calling upon the farmers of the entire country to diversify their crops, and to raise home supplies. At 4:30 o'clock the convention adjourned until Wednesday morning, in order that the delegates might have opportunity to arrive at the Baptist Tabernacle in time to secure seats to hear the address of Hon. Thomas E. Watson at 8 o'clock p.m. At the Tabernacle meeting, Mr. Watson held, under his magic influence and power of logic and oratory, an audience of 3,500 people, for an hour and a half. His 'subject was, "National Farmers' Union," and not for a moment did Mr. Watson lose the close attention of his auditors. By far the most striking incident of the speaking was the indorsement given by the immense audience to President Roosevelt, attesting their approbation of his course in the Brownsville, Texas, matter, in regard to, the negro troops in the Uniteit States army. At Mr. Watson's suggestion, every man, woman and child rose to express a vote of thanks to the president. "Every white man, every white woman and every white child in the south," said Mr. Watson, "owe it to thamselfes to say that they endorse President Roosevelt's course in the Brownsville, Texas, incident. I believe that Tillman, because of his personal prejudice against Theodore Roosevelt, has been led into a false position, and the longer he stays in it the worse it will be for Ben. I want every man, woman and child in this audience who endorses Theodore Roosevelt's course to manifest it by standing, and giving a rising vote of thanks." In a moment the vast audience was on its feet, and cheers for Roosevelt resounded, followed by cheers, equally loud and prolonged, "Hurrah for Tom Watson!" TWO RAIL HORRORS One Train Was Demolished by Powder Explosion; the Other Wreck- Big Four accommodation train, No. 3, which left Terre Haute, Ind., at 8:30 o'clock Saturday night, was destroyed by fire by the explosion of a car of powder at the siding of Sanford, twenty minutes later. Fifteen persons were killed outright and the death list probably will reach twenty, with thirty or thirty five injured. The engine, two coaches and baggage car of the passenger train were demolished. Two other bodies were taken from the wreckart have not been identified. the wreckage have not been identified. The first intimation people had of the disaster was a shock, which was felt at Terre Haute, and as far as Brazil and as far south as Sullivan. The wires were blown down and it was some time before the Big Four officials in Terre Haute learned of the explosion. Relief trains were ordered from Terre Haute and Paris, Ill., and the dead and injured were taken from the wreck to both cities. The work of the rescuing parties was impeded by the almost total destruction of the train. A $^{\circ}$ later dispatch says: Twenty-two charred and mutilated bodies have been taken from the smoldering ruins of the passenger train No. 3 on the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis (Hig Four), which was destroyed by the explosion of a carload of powder as it passed a freight train at Sanford, nine miles west of here, last night. The number of injured will reach at least thirty-five. The entire train was blown from the track, the coaches demolished and the engine hurled 50 feet. The passengers either were blown to pieces, cremated or rescued in a more or less injured condition. The full extent of the disaster was revealed at daylight Sunday morning, but the death list will not be complete until workmen have finished removing the debris. According to the trainmen of the freight, the powder was exploded by the concussion made by the passenger train, which was slowing down for the station at Sandford. Another theory is that gas escaping from an oil pipe line nearby entered the powder car and a spark from the passing engine ignited the gas. In Frightful Collision. A special from Fowler, Ind., says: At least sixteen persons were crushed or burned to death early Saturday in a collision on the Cleveland, Cincinnati, Chicago and St. Louis railroad between the "Queen City special," which left Chicago at 11:30 Friday night, and a freight train. Ten persons were seriously injured and several badly hurt. The passenger train was running at a speed of 50 miles an hour. The entire train was destroyed by fire except a private car, and the Indianapolis sleeper. Seven of the dead have been identified. Eleven of the victims met death in the combination coach, and just two of them have been identified, as the bodies were almost entirely consumed by the flames. With one exception every number of the passenger train crew perished. The collision occurred 500 feet from a switch near Fowler. The passenger train, in the heavy fog, ran by a telegraphic block signal, to stop. The read light was not obeyed. The engine and tender crushed the combination coach, making a mass of wreckage under which the passengers in the car were wedged. Seats were whirled through the roof and it was here that the dead were burned, many of them beyond recognition. The noise of the collision awakened nearly every person in Fowler. Among the first persons to reach the wreck were County Recorder Stray Gilleape and County Auditor Lennel Shipman. These men secured hand saws and before the flames had reached the coaches began the work of rescue. Coroner Comley superintended the removal of the bodies of the identified dead and took charge of the bodies. Saturday afternoon enough fragments to make eight bodies had been taken out. ROUGH DAY IN SENATE. Tillman Scores Everybody and Then Apologizes—President Wins Out In the Brownsville Affair. Whipped into line by the democratic minority, led by Senator Blackburn, the republicans of the senate Monday morning adopted a modified resolution the Brownsville incident. The resolu-providing for the investigation of the Brownsville incident. The resolution, which was offered by Mr. Foraker, does not question the "legality or justice of any act of the, president in connection with the discharge of the three companies of negro soldiers." The modified resolution was acceptable to the democrats and likewise acceptable to the president. The news that the president was telling his friends that he would regard a vote to table the Blackburn amendment or a vote against it as a vote against himself, gave the less courageous of his party supporters in the senate a new stiffening of the backbone. An almost overshadowing incident of the day was Senator Tillman's speech in reply to Spooner, the replies by Spooner of Wisconsin and Carmack of Tennessee, the parliamentary maneuvers, and party strategy, growing out of the democratic efforts to force acceptance of the Blackburn resolution endorsing the president. Senator Tillinan ran the gamut of oratorical efforts in his spectacular address. He made incursions into every field of fun and fury. He ridiculed his colleagues, he defended lynching for the unnamed crime; he scored his opponents, he blistered his enemies, he plead for a solution of the south's tragic problem, and for some inspired plan that would meet and settle the irrepressible conflict. The speech, as a whole, aroused the fire of the senate, and ended in the South Carolinian making an apology and asking that the portion of his remarks holding up to ridicule his colleagues, he expunged from the record. If he had not done so, the senate would have ordered the remarks omitted. Senator Tillman's introduction was undignified, ill-advised and his antics savored of modern burnt-cork minstrelsy, but when he launched into a defense of the south, and his section's determination to defend its race integrity and its Caucasian racial heritage, he was powerful, convincing, and rendered dignified by the very force of his conviction. Senator Tillman fully justified his promise that he would add to the galty of nations and to the amusement of his brethren. That little freak of fancy cost him dearly. It led Carmack of Tennessee to deliver one of the most artistic and scholarly rebukes heard this year in the senate. It provoked Bacon of Georgia to declare that the gentleman from South Carolina made the United States senate take on the air of a vaudeville playhouse. Few features of the spectacular were missing from the proceedings. LIMITED TRAIN DESTROYED. No. 88, Atlantic Coast Line, Crashes Into Freight and Wreck Is Buried. News was received in Charleston. S. C., Monday night of the wreck and destruction of northbound special New York and Florida vestibule train No. 88, Atlantic Coast Line, at 8:20 o'clock at Yemassee, a junction point 59 miles from Charleston. The train went into an open switch and crashed into the engine of a freight train on the sliding. Engineer Johnson of Florence, S. C., on train No. 58, was killed and Engineer Horton and three train hands of the freight were injured. $ ^{2} $ The train, composed of a baggage car and seven Pullmans, caught fire at once, and all except one car were burned. It was said that there were only a few passengers north bound on board, and only one was hurt. Members Decide to Change the By- Laws to Escape Prosecution. Laws to Escape Prosecution. The members of the New York cotton exchange Monday approved several amendments to the by-laws of the exchange as proposed by the board of governors, and ordered a meeting to be held for, balloting on the amendments. GIGANTIC NOTE ISSUE Is Arranged by the Southern Railway Through J. P. Morgan & Co. A New York special says; The Southern Railway company has arranged to issue through J. P. Morgan & Co., $15,000,000 three-year 5 per cent notes, according to an announcement made Monday. AMERICANS OUSTED ADMIRAL DAVIS INSULTED While Giving Aid to Quake and Fire Sufferers Marines are Peremptorily Driven From Kingston. Warships Sailed to Cuba. Rear Admiral Davis' mission of mercy to stricken Kingston came to an abrupt and painful conclusion Saturday. In consequence of Governor Swettenham's objection to the presence of American sailors engaged in the work of clearing the streets, guarding property and succoring the wounded and sick, culminating in a letter to the admiral peremptorily requesting him to re-embark all parties which had landed. Admiral Davis was greatly shocked and pained, and paid a formal visit to Governor-Swettenham, informing him that the United States battleships Missouri and Indiana and the gunboat Yankton would leave at once. Admiral Davis said that immediate compliance with Governor Swettenham's command was the only course consistent with the dignity of the United States. The friction between the governor and the admiral began with the arrival of the American war vessels when the governor objected to the firing of a salute in his honor, on the ground that the citizens might mistake the firing for a new earthquake. He also declared there was no necessity for American aid—that his government was fully able to preserve order, tend the wounded, and succor the homeless. Rear Admiral Davis, however, landed parties of bluejackets, who patrolled the streets, cleared the debris, razed ruins, attested many of the wounded and won the highest praise from citizens and military officers for excellent work. On the afternoon of the salute incident Rear Admiral Davie wrote Governor Swettenham as follows: "My Dear Governor: I beg you to accept my apology for the mistake of the salute this afternoon. My order was misunderstood, and the disregard of your wishes was due to a mistake in the transmission of my order. I hope the apparent disregard of your wishes will be overlooked. "I landed working parties from both ships today to aid in clearing the various streets and buildings, and propose landing parties tomorrow for the same purpose, unless you expressly do not desire it. I think a great deal may be done in the way of assistance to private individuals without interfering with the forces of yourself and the government officials. As the only object of my being here is to render such assistance as I can, I trust you will justify me in this matter for the cause of common humanity. "I had a patrol of six men ashore today to guard and secure the archives of the United States consulate, together with a party of ten clearing away wreckage. This party after finishing its work at the consulate assisted working parties to catch thieves, recovering from them a safe taken from a jewelry store, valued at $5,000. From this, I judge that the police surveillance of the city is inadequate for the protection of private property. "Actuated by the same motives, namely, common humanity, I shall direct the medical officers of my squadron to aid the distress which perhaps does not come under the supervision of your medical office. "I shall have pleasure in meeting you at the hour appointed, 10 a. m. at headquarters house. "I trust you approve of my action in this matter. Your obedient servant, C. H.

Safe Blowers Wreck Bank, But Fall to Secure Any Booty. The bank of Midville, Ga., was wrecked about 2 o'clock Friday morning by four explosions of dynamite, and Cashier Powers was shot in the hip by a rifle ball, and is now in a serious condition as the result of his attempt to save the property of the bank. Although $3,000 was in the safe, none of the money was secured, as the robbers became frightened, and ran away. At the hour named, Cashier Powers, who resides near the bank, was awakened by an explosion in the direction of the bank and he went to investigate. He was armed with a winchester rifle and as he came close to the bank one of the robbers, who was standing guard, shot Mr. Powers to the ground, and his two companions began to fire at the prostrate form of the cashier, but he received no further wounds. The robbers then became frightened and ran off. The bank fixtures are a total wreck. WAR MADE ON BOGUS GEMS. How to Distinguish Glass imitations from Real Stones.

"Why is it that all clergymen get chenselves up to look such frights?" The words were a defiant whisper, breathed into the ear of an elderly maiden lady, between one of the pauses in a "Faust" fantasia, and then carried to the cars of a tall, thin clergyman, who immediately flushed and looked away. "Hilda!" The tone was one of reproof. It came in a good second with the big drum! Miss Lely and her niece were spending a few early summer weeks at Bournemouth in pursuit of peace and pleasure. A curious looking parson had wandered in front of the band-stand in search of a vacant chair. He had a long, thin face, wore an inverness coat of ancient date and carried a small, black leather bag. Yet he was young, and should have taken some interest in his personal appearance. "He has eyebrows like—like the pause marks in music!" the girl murmured, in defense of her sweeping criticism. Somehow the younger Miss Lely felt she had a right to a grievance just at this time. Her family had barely been bent-on coercing her into marriage with a clergyman who, according to all accounts, seemed to have the virtues of all the ages without any of the vices. Hilda had never seen him. It was some family "arrangement" which the family, exclusive of Hilda, hoped would "come out", some day. The Rev. Ronald Martyn's father and old Mr. Lely had always been friends. The Martyns emigrated shortly afterward to Australia, while the Lelys stayed in the old country. Ronald was due in England on a long visit to some distant relatives, and the meeting fraught with so much importance was to take place soon. "I shall not go out again," Miss Lely said, when they reached their lodgings. "If you want to go and hear more of the band this evening, Hilda. I will ask Mrs. Hunt to let her Mary take you." Hilda's eyes sparkled. "I am never tired of listening to that band!" she said. "And I love to go, aunty." And she went. Alas, yet another clergyman caught her eye. It was an old and desecret one this time, who seemed to be enjoying the music so much that he went to sleep with a rapt expression on his face and not a thought about falling off the end of the seat. A tall, fair-haired man opposite, with limbs like Hercules and the face of an Adonis, strode across the grass and propped him up just in time. A day or two later the scene was recalled to her. She and her aunt were crossing Old Christchurch road when a motor car whizzed round a corner without warning. The elder Miss Lely gasped; the younger pushed her with all her might out of the way of the advancing monster, and was in turn thrust out of danger by a mighty hand. There was a whizling sensation in her ears; for one awful moment the street ran round, and the ground rose up before her and refused to stop—then she found herself clutching a lamp-post, while some one muttered in her ear: "By Jove! That was a close share!" She looked up hastily. The hero of a few nights before was standing over her with an anxious expression on his clean-shaven face and in his deep blue eyes. "Aunt Ellen! Where is Aunt Ellen?" she asked, a little wildly. Her rescuer nodded in a sympathetic manner. "She is all right, if you mean the old lady in the black bonnet and spectacles," he said. "I expect she is home by now. They tools her in a cab." "A cab! Was she hurt, then?" The tall man laughed. "Not hurt at all," he answered. "Only very much frightened. And I promised to bring you on immediately. But, of course, as you know, you fainted and I couldn't. If you are sufficiently revived I will call a cab." Hilda laid her hand on his gray tweed coat sleeve. She had already decided in her own mind that the Rev. Ronald should wear dark gray tweed, when she suddenly remembered that he was a clergyman. "Don't call a cab for me, please," she said, imploring. "I can walk quite well. It will do me much more good than driving." "All right. Then I will walk with you," he answered, cheerfully. "Didn't I see you, at the band concert in the winter gardens the other evening?" he asked. Bilda nodded and smiled. "You saved an old clergyman from tumbling off his chair!" he said, amusedly. "I saw you. Why is it clergymen are such a stupid set of men all round?" He gave a slight start. "So—er—stupid—clergymen?" he repeated dubiously, as if he had not heard aright. Hilda thought him quite dense. "Yes." she explained, merrily. "I'm afraid I dislike clergymen. It's very wrong'of me, I know, because——" She paused and a brilliant flush suffused her cheeks as she suddenly became interested in the sea. "Because?" he repeated, patiently awaiting her answer. "Because—oh! I'm supposed to be going to—oh! I don't quite know why," she said, incoherently. "You see—well, I daresay you will laugh at me—but I've always been brought, up to expect that some day I must marry a clergyman! It is very stupid. Most probably if dad had wanted me to marry an actor I should have felt a distinctly robellous desire for the 'cloth.' But as it is——" "Human nature rebels, eh?" he suggested, with a slaugh. "And the balance is in favor of the actor?" "I don't know any actor, really," she responded, naively. "So I am afraid there is no balance!" "And it's all dead weight against the poor parson," he murmured, taking a side glance at her. Hilda shrugged her shoulders. "Poor!" she echoed. "Do you like clergymen?" "I never thought I didn't," he said, slowly. "In fact, I used to——" "But you don't?" she began, merrily. "No—since I knew you," he said, boldly, "I've altered my opinion!" "In such a short time——" began Hilda. It was fortunate that at that moment Mrs. Hunt, who had been on the lookout for them, opened the door, for Hilda had an uncomfortable feeling that things were going too far. Miss Lely worshiped at St. Peter's and duly carried Hilda off to that church the following Sunday. The tall figure of the hero slipped into a pew just opposite and fixed his blue eyes nearly all the service through just below Hilda's pretty chiffon hat. The elder Miss Lely prayed for the speedy return of the prospective bridegroom, and Hilda decided that certain tall figures looked equally well in gray tweed or black. That Sunday was to live long. In the memories of both ladies. 'The elder Miss Lely actually sat down and volunteered to wait for the young people if they cared to walk a little farther before returning to the house. Hilda glanced at her companion and met his gaze with rash courage. Soon he was speaking fast and passionately. "Don't think me mad—and don't say I am presumptuous. But are you really engaged to that clergyman you talked of the other day? Answer me truthfully, please, because it makes all the difference in the world to me." He turned his handsome face toward her, and his eyes were lit with an eager, passionate fire that Hilda found disconcerting, albeit delightful. "I——" She stopped. They sat down, while she told him the whole story. He laughed as he heard it: "And you intend to marry this man—this clergyman—whether you like him or no?" he asked at the finish. Hilda looked down toward the sea. She had completely forgotten the waiting Aunt Ellen on the esplanade. "I must see him first," she said simply. "But you have seen him!" She smiled softly. "Not, since I can remember anything," she answered. "I couldn't have the heart to tell dad I refuse before seeing him." "Suppose he is ugly?" "If I loved him, it wouldn't matter how ugly he was!" the girl said in her soft voice. The hero jumped up suddenly, and knelt on the gravel path, seizing both her hands. "Hilda, darling," he cried, trumphantly, "I am Ronald Martyn! Only you didn't know it, of course. Don't you think you could pass over the fact that I am a stupid clergyman." "You aren't ugly," whispered Hilda, as if that settled matters.—Modern Society. Stuttering. Of the etiology of shittering we know nothing definite. Direct inheritance in race, and possibly imitation is the chief factor when father and son are affected. There is usually a well-marked neurotic inheritance, others in the family having various forms of nervous complaints. But I have not been able to confirm Charcot's statement that shittering and ordinary facial paralysis frequently occur in the same family. Shocks, frights and debility after some acute illness are the causes to which the onset is most frequently attributed by parents. Imitation is undoubtedly an occasional cause, children having often been known to start the habit when put in charge of a shittering nurse-maid. A friend of mine who was extremely fond of horses and was hardly to be kept out of the stables acquired a most obstinate stutter from the groom. Adenoid vegetations are often met with and are important as a predisposing cause since they tend to prevent the proper filling of the chest with air. When present they should be removed as a preliminary measure, although it must not be expected that their removal will lead to a prompt cessation of the stutter.—Lancet. In France land and grass are usually too valuable to be given over to sheep grazing, hence most of the sheep consumed are impugled. Agglers supplies over a million a year. OF INTEREST TO WOMEN 31 New York City.—Elaboration appears to be the one all pressing demand for the season and almost everything except the tailored suit of the severest, most useful sort is braid trimmed. Here is a most charming 1 little Eton that gives all the dressy effect demanded by fashion, while in reality it is absolutely simple in construction and can very easily be made. Braid of varying widths is combined with velvet to give a really J0 handsome and altogether elaborate effect, but the foundation is just the plain little Eton shown in the small view. In this instance the material is hunter's green broadcloth and the collar and the wider bands are made of velvet, the collar being overlaid with lace while the trimming consists of flat braid in two widths and of soutache braid applied over a stamped design. All suitings are appropriate, however, and the model will be found especially well adapted to velvet and velvetteen as well as to broadcloth, while it can be made far simpler by being trimmed on different lines. For example, if the horizontal strappings were omitted altogether the garment would still be an attractive one or the narrow braids in fronts and back could be dispensed with, still leaving a dressy garment. The Eton is made with the back, the side-backs, fronts and side-fronts. Both the side-fronts and side-backs are cut to form extensions at the lower edges and these extensions are lapped over onto the fronts and backs, so providing a foundation for the braiding, which gives the effect of a band. The back is slightly longer than the side-backs and is attached to the belt, over which it blouses. The flat collar finishes the neck and the closing is made with buttons and Footwear For All Occasions. As every one knows the dressing of the foot and leg is an all important part of any child's costume. Tan and black are the standard colors in stockings as in shoes, but where economy is not closely considered there are many variations from these standards. Stockings that match the frock and shoes that harmonize are the desirable thing from a fashion standpoint, Low shoes and slippers' in ooze loops of braid. The sleeves are in the fashionable three-quarter length with bands at the lower edges. The quantity of material required for the medium size is three and one-quarter yards twenty-seven, one and three-quarter yards forty-four or one and one-half yards fifty-two inches wide with five-eighth yard of velvet for the collar and wide bands, six yards of medium width, ten yards of narrow braid with soutache, according to design used, with one yard of lace. Feather Breast For Turbans. The soft feather breasts so much used for natty turbans are beautifully matched in wings. Fancy Pleated Skirt. There seems literally to be no limit to the possibilities of the pleated skirt. It is constantly appearing in some new guise or other and is seemingly always most attractive in the latest. This one is perfectly smooth over the hips, giving something of a yoke effect at the same time that the lines are long, graceful and becoming. In the illustration it is made of nut brown broadcloth trimmed with bias bands of velvet and is stitched with holding silk, but trimming can be braid or anything that may be liked or the skirt can be finished with a stitched hem only. Again it gives a choice of round or walking length, so that it becomes adapted both to the street and to indoor wear while it is suitable for the thinner materials, such as silk and velling 31 quite as well as cloth and other suttings. The skirt is made in nine gores that are cut with extensions below the plain yoke portion, which provides fulness and flare, while at the back are the inverted pleats that are so universally becoming. The quantity of material required for the medium size is eleven and one-half yards twenty-seven, six and one-quarter yards forty-four or fifty-two inches wide, with two yards of blas velvet to trim as illustrated. Leather with embroidered motifs, as well as shoes of kidskin and satin in self colorings, are worn for dancing classes and similar juvenile festivities. Bodice of Rufles. The bodice composed entirely of narrow ruffles of lace, laid one above the other on a well-fitted lining, is a charmingly fluffy evening waist. Wide bands of Cluyn pass from shoulders to waist, crossing at the bust. M. Sir Henry Campbell-Bannerman, who has now received the emphatic approval of his ministry by the British voters in the general parliamentary elections, is a patient, methodical and tireless worker. Although in his seventieth year, he will retain, in addition to the burdens of the Premiership, the leadership in the House of Commons. General View of New Croton Dam After Construction. The New Croton Dam is located about three and one-fourth miles below the Old Croton Dam (built 1837-1842), and forms a storage reservoir of about 20,000,000,000 gallons capacity for the water supply of the city of New York. The work was begun on September 20, 1892, and was practically finished by January 17, 1906. Improvement in Colanders. Some of the recent improvements in cooking utensils are a great help to the housewife, who is always on the lookout for anything that will lighten her duties. The latest is a colander for straining liquids, an illustration of which is shown below. In addition to being serviceable in straining preserves, jellies, etc., it Improved Colander. also thoroughly beats and stirs them up, so that the seeds or other undesirable portion is thoroughly separated from that which is to be retained. To make the operation doubly easy the colander portion is attached to a bracket, the latter being clamped to the table. The colander is in two sections, the lower portion containing the perforations and the upper portion serving as a cover to prevent the contents from splashing out on the table when the beater is operated. Revolving in the lower portion of the colander is the beater, composed of circular bands. These bands are operated by a handle at the side. In training preserves, for instance, they are placed in the colander, the cover closed and the handle operated. a long dish being placed on the table to catch the strained liquid. A half-minute's turning suffices to thoroughly beat and strain the contents. As to Railroad Business. Chicago makes the boast: "Chicago still continues to be the greatest railroad centre in the world. Fifteen hundred and thirty-seven trains—passenger, mail and freight—are scheduled regularly to arrive and depart daily." Whereupon Boston comes forward with testimony showing that 1622 trains arrive and depart daily from that city, or eighty-five more than Chicago can show.—Nashville American. Japan in the Far East.

The Wrong Eggs. O. D. Pitts, a farmer of Caroline County, tells the following remarkably story. He says he was plowing with a pair of horses on his farm and turned up a nest containing what he supposed to be turtle eggs. He put them in his pocket to carry them home and experiment with them as to their hatching qualities. Some time later, when he took up his coat, he felt something moving, and upon investigation found that the eggs had hatched and his pocket was full of young snakes. He did not experiment any further.—Richmond Times. New Ironing Board. An exceedingly convenient method of attaching an ironing board to the kitchen table is shown in the accompanying illustration. Housewives insist that an ironing board is the proper thing to use when ironing, being far superior to a table. Its particular form adapts it to the purpose, while the surface of a table is too large for the purpose. As shown here, the ironing board is normally hidden beneath the leaves of the table, one end being hinged to the edge. One leaf of the table is also hinged to the one next in position. After throwing back the table leaf the ironing board can also be swung over to one side and is instantly ready. Ironing Board on Table.. for service. In this way the necessity for supporting the ironing board on two chairs is obviated. At the same time the balance of the table can be used for holding the unfinished clothes. Upon the completion of the ironing the board is again folded across the table supports and the leaf lowered to its normal position. Appropriate Garments. For a flea—a jumper. Grasshopper—loggins.

At last the Republican senators have gotten together in the Brownsville resolution. WONDER what Senator Tillman would say if he learns that United States Troops were sent to Beaufort to do police duty? How about state rights? LAST Saturday a disastrous fire occurred in Beaufort, consuming many thousand dollars worth of property. At night because a colored man ventured near one of the burnt buildings he was shot down. Those who were responsible for the act knew that it was uncalled for, therefore became alarmed and wired for protection on the pretext that the colored citizens were uprising. While the colored citizens were indignant about the shooting yet they are law-abiding and made no demonstration. The presence of the troops made no impression upon them so far as maintaining law and order was concerned. Why Should Gov. Terrell Utter Deliberate False-heads? We believe in courtesy and delicacy of characterization in debate, whether oral or written, but there are some people upon whom courtesy and delicacy used in any way are entirely lost. Most of the political demagogues and swashbucklers of the South are of this sort. In discussing "The Negro and the Southern Labor Problem" in The New York American and Journal last Sunday, Governor Joseph M. Terrell of Georgia had no need what ever to utter deliberate falschoods about it, but he did so, because he could not help it, as demagogy was born in him. He says: "We are having no trouble in Georgia with the country Negro. The relations between the whites and the blacks there are amicable, and we rarely hear of race troubles. There are fewer assaults and consequently fewer lynchings than at any time since the days of 'reconstruction.' "In the cities there are two classes of Negroes who give trouble, idle and vicious and the semi-educated with high-flow notions of social equality. There has of recent years been a tendency on the part of the country blacksto flock to cities. They are attracted by the higher wages and the great facilities for the gratification of their desires. They quickly become demoralized in the cities, and constitute a real menace to the community in many cases. "It was these two classes of Negroes who were responsible for the excited state of public opinion which led to the recent rioting in Atlanta. This rioting, while undeniably bad, was greatly exaggerated by the press of the country. There were only eleven killed all told. It is a striking commentary on the wicked folly of trying to right wrongs outside the recognized channels of laws, that of the number killed ten were innocent of all suspicion of wrong doing." FALSEHOOD No. 1. Instead of having no trouble "With the country Negro," the trouble begins with him, and this trouble causes the scarcity of farm laborers, and and sequentially, the congregation of them in the cities. What is this trouble? The lawlessness and arrogance of white farmers, who are above the law in any treatment they deem good or capricious to mete out to the laborer; the lien laws of the south, which give the farmer absolute mastery over the laborer and his wage, the latter being fixed always at the swindling point; the bad and inadequate school facilities as to quality of school houses, distances apart, payment of teachers and shortness of term. To get way from the tyranny of the planter and the arrogance and lawlessness of the rural white upstart, and to glye his children better opportunities in the schools, Afro-Americans go to the cities. FALSENHOOD No. 2. The idle and vicious Negro in the cities can easily be taken care of by the police, if white dive keepers and saloon keepers were not allowed to flourish and to pay tribute for immunity to the police. The bad district in Atlanta—bounded by North Pryor street and Pratt, the capitol and Edgewood avenue—is planted thick with dives and saloons of the lowest class, but only three saloons in the whole district are conducted by Afro-Americans, and they are of the better sort. FAILSHOOD No. 3. "The semi-educated with high-flow notions of social equality" exist only in the diseased head or the disordered imagination of Governor Terrell. The people he speaks of are self-respecting people who work hard and want to obey the laws, and who resent, and will always resent, the jim-crow car laws of the surface railways and railroads, and the vile arrangements for the segregation and feeding of Afro-Americans in the depots of Georgia, and in all of the class legislation violative of civil rights which Governor Terrell and his sort have come to believe and to class as "social rights," when, as a matter of fact, no right made the subject of contract is a social right, but always is a civil right. There will always be "bad Negroes" in Georgia, and there numbers will continue to multiply, as long as jim-crow laws are made and enforced, because they violate the sanctity of contract and disbase the manhood and womanhood of the people at whom they are aimed, by the inferiority of the service they make possible, by the insolence and the brutality of the enforcement of them, and by the stigma they place upon a body of citizens who have as much right to fair and equitable laws and human administration of them as the white citizens of Georgia. FALSEHOOD No. 4. The Atlanta mas- magee was not brought about by "idle and vicious" or "semi-educated Afro-Ameri- cans" and Governor Terrell knows that it was not. It was brought about by 1 President R. R. WRIGHT. Governor Terrell's Attorney General, who owns a newspaper and who is so small of reputation outside of Georgia that we can not, for the life of us, remember his name, by John Temple Graves of The Georgian, by Hoke Smith of the Evening Journal and by Clark Howell of The Censituation, who in their mad chase after the nomination for Governor by the Democratic primary voters lashed to mad fury the waves of race hatred and vengeance. It is difficult for the best rhetorical prestidigitator to utter four deliberate falsehoods in four studied statements of notorious fact, and in accomplishing the feat in an article of one column of newspaper space Governor Joseph M. Terrell of Georgia shows that he is entitled to stand in front of the whole gang of present-day white Southern' Annaniases.—New York Age. Fair Stockholders Met. The meeting of the Colored Fair directors and stockholders, which was held in the city of Macon on the 18th, was full of enthusiasm and gave much promise for the success of the next Fair which will be held in that city next November. Introductory remarks were made by Dr. W. G. Johnson after which President Wright read the constitution. President Wright expressed himself as being highly pleased with the success of the Fair and assured the large audience of his deep appreciation of the hearty cooperation he received from all parts of the state in his efforts to bring success to the enterprise. Dr. W. O. Emory, a member of the executive committee at Macon addressed the stockholders stating the object of the first Fair which was to set before our own people and the other race the progress of the Negro for forty years. He spoke of the hard work done by President Wright in his efforts to get up the Fair, stating that no other man in the state could have made the Fair such a grand success. In conclusion Dr. Emory stated that the Fair had done more for the Negro in this state than anything since the war. He emphasized this fact that the Fair created a healthy public sentiment throughout the state in the interest of the people of the Negro race. Remarks were also made by Rev, C. H. Dinkins of Toccoa, Rev. L. H. Smith of Macon, Dr. J. B. Stevens of Darien, Rev. F. R. Simms of Americus and Mr. J. W. Davidson, Editor of The Macon Dispatch. At the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Fair, which was held at the offices of the Association encouraging remarks were also made by Dr. W. R. Forbes, who spoke especially of the impression the Fair made upon the prominent white people of the city of Macon and other parts of the state. Remarks were made by most of the members of the committee and it was unanimously agreed to hold the. next Fair in the city of Macon. All the members representing 59 counties in the state, pledging their earnest support to the enterprise. Dr. Washington writes to Dr. Warling of Baltimore; about the Fair;: "Prof. Wright deserves the highest credit for the magnificent fair which he held in Macon, Ga., a few days ago." He writes to Prof. Wright: "Major B. R. Wright, State Normal College, Savannah, Ga., Dear Major 1 You are due the congratulations and commendation of our people all over your state for the great success of the Fair From every source I have heard that the Fair was a tranmisson success and that it was the means of doing much good. I am glad to know that my visit there helped out in some way. I was very glad to be able to render this service. Very truly Booker T. Washington The following was approved : We your committee on declaring dividends beg to make the following report : That five per cent will be paid on all money invested in stock of the Georgia State Colored Agricultural and Industrial Association up to the rath, of Nov. 1906. We also recommend that this money be sent to the Chairman of each county and he pay the same to cash stockholder and those counties that have not a chairman the same be sent to one of the stockholders and he pay off the others also money be paid in thirty days. Attention All! The Equal Rights Convention of Georgia will hold its second meeting in Mason, Ga., Tuesday February 12th, 1907, beginning at 2 o'clock sharp. There will be addresses by distinguished white and colored men upon the question that vitally affect all classes. Bishop Turner, 1st Vice President of the Convention will introduce resolutions that will be of vital interest to everybody in Georgia and indeed the whole South. Our wisest men should be present to discuss and act upon these resolutions. Several distinguished white Georgians will present their views. The influence of this meeting will be far reaching in its effect. Every man and woman enrolled last year will be recognized as members this year. All others may enroll and become members. Each member must pay the annual fee of fifty cents when enrolling and none will be enrolled otherwise. This meeting will be of more importance to the colored people of Georgia than the one held last year and it is hoped that our best men and women will be present at whatever sacrifice. The usual reduced rates on railroads have been asked for and will doubtless be granted. It has been arranged to continue the meeting till Friday noon if necessary. Club Day at Sunday Club.

The general verdict of the mass is that recent celebration of the 19th Anniversary of our Church excelled all others. It was decided to hold a series of meetings in connection with the celebration of our anniversary, so the 'pastor secured' the services of Dr. C. H. Clark of Nashville, Tenn., Dr. Clarke has rendered most efficient service, truly he is a preacher of great ability. We have had 190 conversions to date, and yet the interest of the meetings seems to be increasing. Last Sunday the service were far from the ordinary. Deacon O. Elmore and the ladies of our Church are worthy of much praise for the elaborate and artistic decoration of our church. At 11 a. m. a large audience assembled to witness the special program for that service, at which time Dr Clarke preached a soul stirring sermon and four strong men were so much affected by the sermon that they came for ward and confessed their sins and were happily converted. The Sunday School was largely attended at 3 p. m. At 7:30 an audience that more than filled the auditorium of the church assembled to hear the Anniversary sermon, which was preached by Dr. Clarke. The Dr. seemed to be at his best, and with his rear eloquence he swayed his audience at will. It was a most profound sermon and was highly appreciated and will be long remembered. The B. Y. P. U. was represented by Mr. W. G. Williams, who read an excellent paper "On the relation of the B. Y. P. U. to the Church." Mrs. Hattie Hatcher read a well composed paper on "Duty." Deacon L. A. Washington represented the Deacon Board of the Church. The climax was reached by Prof. I. M Jackson who read an excellent paper on "The Summary of the work of the Pastor," which showed that the church has raised $28,000 during the pastorate of Dr. Carr, and that 1200 members have been received into the church. Preaching at to-morrow at 11 a. m. and 7:30 p. m. by the pastor. There will be baptism after the evening sermon. You are invited to attend our church. Second Baptist Church. Second Baptist Church.

Pastor's subject, "The trial in the Judgment." The evening subject "The Seven eyed Stone." Everybody is invited to hear these subjects discussed. Ministers Union. The Evangelical Union met Tuesday on time with Rev. J. A. Lindsay in the chair. Devotional services were conducted by Rev. L. W. McMillan. Rev. N. Bembry acted as secretary. After the usual preliminaries were over the regular business was taken up. The sermonic outlines of Rev. L. W. McMillan and Rev. R. V. Branch were well received by the Union. It is interesting to see and hear these gospel messengers unfolding to the Union the way they try to preach to their people each Sunday. Some great questions arise at times, but the Union is made up of some able exegetist, therefore nothing that arises go begging. Revs. Cash, G. W. Robinson, Brockatt, B. S. Hanuah, J. S. Jenkins, and other disciples had a lively tilt over the metaphysical and philosophical subjects brought out in the Union. Dr. S. P. Lloyd, and Dr. J. H. Klug, called on the Union in the interest of Charity Hospital. The ministers pledged themselves to send a helping hand to this worthy cause. Rev. Jenkins led off with a free donation to the Hospital. If ministers want to spend an hour profitably on Tuesday let them go to the Union at St. Philip A. M. E. church promptly each Tuesday. In this Union there is strength.

THE NEW YORKER JUNE 19, 1939 THE NEW YORKER JUNE 19, 1939 HARBOUR STREET, KINGSTON. Mercantile business in Kingston is conducted largely by Scotchmen; while the tobacco trade, which is extensive, is carried on by natives. The stores are large and very similar to those to be found in an American city of 60,000 persons. The two principal business streets are Harbour and Port Royal, the former the home of the retail shops and the latter of the wholesale.

Measured by American standards, none of the buildings is of extravagant design. The public buildings are low, are built of stone and brick, and the business blocks are of brick and never more than three stories in height. Business contries are at the intersection of Harbour and Port Royal streets, and the scene there during business hours is much the same as in any American city, except that, negro women, barefooted and with packs on their heads, and bare-legged negro boys, shoveling fruit carts, dart in and out of the maze of traffic. The Myrtle Bank Hotel is the largest hotel in Kingston and many Americans stay there. There are ```markdown ``` several boarding houses and a few cheap hotels near the wharvēs. Beautiful residences, all of stone and brick of distinctly Spanish design, some of them representing an ```markdown ``` investment of as high as $50,000, line the streets to the north of the city. They are all shielded from the street by high terraces which are overhung with palms Several men of wealth have costly homes just on the outskirts of the city, among them the Machado Brothers, the largest tobacco dealers in Jamaica. All of the streets are covered and flooded in fact, throughout the island the roads are ideal, being continually sprinkled with stone crushed by negroes in lieu of taxes. About a mile back from the water front is the home of the Governor of the island, and in the very heart of the city are the botanical gardens, the chief show place of the city. Two miles north of the foot of Harbour street, where passenger vessels land, is the penitentiary, in which there are always between 300 and 400 negroes. There is a system of electric street railways on which the service is as good as can be found in any American city; a water works system, a perfect telephone system; in short, everything that is associated with an up to date city.

Hurrah!" is the modern phrase. The "hip!" and "hurrah!" do not seem to have come together before the nineteenth century. In the eighteenth century "hip!" amounted to just "hi!" or "huullo!" while "hurrah" was then usually "huzza!" It is like the Cossack shout "orat" but it is supposed to have been a German cry of the chase, adapted by the German soldiers to war; and borrowed from them by the English, perhaps first of all at the time of the thirty years' war; "hursa!" is said to have been the battle cry of the Prussians in the war of liberation (1812-1513). Still, the curious fact that seventeenth and eighteenth century writers call "huzza!" a sailor's shout lends support to the conjecture that it may really have been the hoisting cry, "hissa!"—Kansas City Journal. An Offhand Diagnosis. A humorous variation of the formidable parent who figures in popular fiction comes from the Philadelphia Public Ledger. It was evening, and while the young man was waiting for the girl of his choice he made desperate attempts at conversation with the girl's father.

"Well," the old gentleman blandly responded, "for the sort you have, the outdoor treatment might be all right in summer, but at this season a quiet parlor is better." A lady in a Wis. town employed a physician, who instructed her not to eat white bread for two years. She tells the details of her sickness, and she certainly was a sick woman. "In the year 1887 I gave out from over work, and until 1901 I remained an invalid in bad a great part of the time. Had different doctors, but nothing seemed to help. I suffered from cerebro-spinal congestion, female trouble and serious stomach and bowel trouble. My husband called a new doctor, and after having gone without any food for 10 days the doctor ordered Grape-Nuts for me. I could eat the new food from the very first mouthful. The doctor kept me on Grape-Nuts, and the only medicine was a little glycerine to heal the alimentary canal. "When I was up again doctor told me to eat Grape-Nuts twice a day and no white bread for two years. I got well in good time, and have gained in strength so I can do my own work again. "My brain has been helped so much, and I know that the Grape-Nuts food did this, too. I found I had been made ill because I was not fed right, that is, I did not properly digest white bread and some other food I tried to live on. "I have never been without Grape-Nuts food since and cat it every day. You may publish this letter if you like, so it will help one one else." Name given by Postum Co., Battle Creek, Mifch.

Y.—Preaching at the Irving Square, Presbyterian Church on the theme "The Parables of Jesus," the Rev. Ira Wemmell Henderson, pastor, took as his text Mark 4:2. "And He taught them many things by parables." He said: The parables of Jesus are as wonderful to-day as they were in Jerusalem. Time has not spotted their temper nor, dulled their edge. Spoken to the citizens of Palestine nearly two thousand years ago, their truth strikes deep and convictingly into every heart now and here. Fraught with eternal verities they still ring fresh upon the ears of men. Laden with the ripest and finest fruit of human experience and of divine revelation they can never fall to command and secure the attention of humanity. Be they illustrative, comparative or simple; they as the commentator hail it; they as us the audience and the medium to our truth to our minds, comfort to our hearts, power to our souls. Little care we that the parables of the sower and the mustard seed may be paralleled in the philosophy of Buddha. The mind and the voice of Christ have consecrated them in a peculiar and impressive manner to His church. The source of the world-wide appeal of Christianity lies, in large measure, in its adaptability to the needs of all men and in the fact that in it all the most exalted truths of ancient, and modern philosophies are crystallized and culminated. And nowhere is this more markedly demonstrated than in the parables. No man can light a candle but the words of Jesus blaze up in the flame. Think for moment how out of place and incongruous new patches are on old garments. The parable of the good Samaritan has led us often consciously, more often unconsciously, to lend the weak and the fallen the helping hand. The parables reach all men because they depict and portray and depend on force upon the world, and activities upon it. They are the product not of speculation but of vital objective and subjective human experience. They are the epitome of all that we see and hear and feel within us. Add to this that the parables are pungent, cogent, profound, positive and pointed; and you have the keys to their influence. The parables of Christ are pungent. That is to say they cut deep. When Jesus started to flay sin or to declare truth He went beneath the surface of things apparent. The parable pricks the surface and draws blood. The steel of Toledo or Shefield or Damascus never made a deeper or a cleaner cut than the stinging language and the caustic truths of the parables made, and yet do make, into the vitals of sin. Let the self-righteous man testify to the writhings of his soul under the lash of the scorn of Christ. Let him who is wasting his talents tell of the piercing words of Christ to him. Truth cuts. The parables of Christ declare the truth and thus our sins are slashed. The profoundest thoughts are the most potent for influence upon the lives of men. The deepest truth, for which we have to dig, attracts us most. The parables are profound. They present a field not for the grub axe but for the pick. The search for truth leads a man, a eye-catching him, to cease placer mining and to sink a shaft. Truth is to be found most plentifully beneath the surface. And just as the sight of pay dirt in the pan sends the miner into the depths for more so the appropriation and appreciation, by the seeker after truth, of surface verities impels him to search deeper. The parables are deep. They not only depict external conditions and portray the visible and objective facts of life but they also clothe and conceal a wealth of unseen truth that must be searched out to be secured. The ring and the calf and the cloak and the feast but tell in story the outward evidence of the father's love. We forget the sheep when we hear the voice of God. Don't bother with the yeast; think of the spiritual uplift we would have and would become personally if we had the fullness of the kingdom of heaven within us. The parables are profound. If you are unconvinced, just follow one of them to the end of its implications, under the guidance of the Spirit. The positiveness of the parables is refreshing. There is no hesitancy about them. The Lord was certain that men could understand them if they would. He was sure that they mirrored life and would have a real appeal to men. Furthermore there was no doubt in the mind of Christ that they contained a measure of spiritual truth which any man, under the influence of the Spirit, might easily discern. No man has to think twice to understand that it is not only unfair but also wrong to make no use or feeble use of divinely bestowed. capacities. There is mistaking the assurance that the parable is true, but the trust in riches, that he is a fool. Is there any doubt as to the opinion God has of those Pharisees who bless their stars they are a little better than the common herd? The action of the yeast in the dough presents a strong picture of the power of truth. Those things that are cogent and positive almost always have point. The parables are pointed. They are both sharp and well aimed. They do not beat around the bush or befoj the issue. They make straight for the mark. The sower and his seed reflect the Gospel and our hearts. The joy at the finding of the money is like to the joy of the Father over the lost who are found. The drawnet and its catch ought to make us less susceptible to class and social distinctions, and more cognizant of the fact that the kingdom of God is for all men. The spectacle of the cautious king who took tally of his troops should reveal clearly that we cannot serve Jesus without spiritual preparation. Those ten virgins ought to warn us that death-bed repentances are risky, just as certainly as the tale Matthew told about the wayward men and their hire admonishes us that we should be cheerful not churlish because men who have been bad in this life enter repentant, by the grace of God, into equal salvation with us at the end of evil lives. The parables have point and being well barbed and feathered they fly true and stick. Full of life, and reflecting life, they carry truth lastingly to our hearts. Profound, pointed, positive, the pungent parables of Christ are cogent. They are powerful to arrest attention and to hold it, and to stimulate our thought. To appreciate them best and for them to be most of benefit to us we must enter into the mind of Christ. Filled with His Spirit and dominated by His love we shall ever discover wonders, comfort, peace, inspiration in His truth. For Jesus is the master teacher of the ages. He is the profoundest philosopher of the world. Men may not accept Christian theology concerning Him, they may not accept Him as a Saviour in the Christian use of the term; but wherever there is a man of philosophic ability, wherever there is a mind of surpassing intellectual clarity, there is Christ honored for His insight, His intellectual acumen, His intensity of soul. The parables of Jesus are the messages of a philosopher and a Saviour. The Christian's Ascent. The Christian life is a continual renewal, but only as we walk up a mountain is a continual ascent, and, if the mountain is immeasurable, then, of course, the summit is never reached. In coach-footed, it is a privilege, not a hardship, that we can continue to ascend. — J. H. Thom. Speed Peace on Earth. If a thousandth part of what has been expended in war and preparing its mighty engines had been devoted to the development of reason and the diffusion of Christian principles, nothing would have been known for centuries past of its terrors, its sufferings, its impoverishment and its demoralization, but what was learned from history.—Horace Mann. God and Heaven on Earth. To enjoy God and heaven it does not require that we wait till the last touch, of death reveals all things in the light of eternity. We may take God and heaven along_with us every day, and carry their peace and glory into all the dull and prosaic scenes of earth.—Thomas Lathrop. Pray For Others. Unless we pray for others, we are lacking in that spirit in which alone we can pray hopefully for ourselves, and we are living in neglect of a prime duty to God's dear ones who need and deserve our prayers. You Look Prematurely Old NO CHANCE OF OVERSLEEPING. German Ingenuity Solves the Problem of Timely Rising. There is a stone dead man in the northern part of Germany who, says the man, was killed, and at last mastered the problem of being called in the morning. He has made an ingenious contrivance of machinery attached to his big eight-day clock. The power is obtained hydraulically from a waterfall in the garden, and works through an arrangement of rods and wheels on the four posts of his big bed, which is suspended 18 inches from the floor. He sets the clock at whatever hour he likes; and the bed does the rest. The affair is too complicated to describe, but the result is this: A* the desired hour instead of an alarm bell, which would be perfectly useless, there comes a gentle shaking of his bed. This continues for one minute. Should he fail to respond the movement becomes more, violent, throwing him up, and down instead of gently sideways. Nor is this all. If that does not rouse him the entire bed tips slowly to an impossible angle, rolling him inevitably into a bathhull full of cold water which stands at the side. Dinner. Dinner, as physicians and laymen agree, should not consist of the pound of beef and quart of coffee the condemned murderer swallows upon the eve of his hanging to rob death of its sting and the grave of its victory. A plate of soup, a piece of steak, a fish or a fowl, with a salad, some vegetables, a dessert and coffee, constitute the dinner of unostentious variety. Patrarchs tell us that such a dinner was once obtainable in San Francisco and in New York and at intermediate points, at prices not prohibitive to the man or moderate income, but such a meal ordered a la carte in our modern restaurants is too expensive for the majority of patrons, and too large a dinner for one man to consume. The trouble is that each "portion" is too large. The existing arrangement of portion and prices causes us to eat too much meat and die of kidney disease or too few vegetables and die of indigestion with its various and tragic ramifications. Louisville Courier Journal. The Story of a Medicine. Its name—"Golden Medical Discovery" was suggested by one of its most important and valuable ingredients—Golden Seal root. Nearly forty years ago, Dr. Pierco discovered that he could, by the use of pure, triple-refined glycerine, aided by a certain tlegreo of constantly maintained heat and with the aid of apparatus and appliances designed for that purpose, extract from our most valuable native medicinal roots their curative properties much better than by the use of alcohol, so generally employed. So the now world-famed "Golden Medical Discovery" for the cure of weak stomach, indigestion, or dyspepsia, torpid liver, or biliosness and kindred derangements was first made, as it ever since has been, without a particle of alcohol in its make-up. A glance at the full list of its ingredients, printed on every bottle-wrapper, will show that it is made from the most valuable medicinal roots found growing in our American forests. All these ingredients have received the strongest endorsement from the leading medical experts, teachers and writers on Murray Moffett who recommend them as the very best. The Hardened Medical Discoveries required A little book of the endorsers has been compiled by Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., and will be mailed free to any one asking same by postal card, or letter addressed to the Doctor as above. From these endorsers, copied from standard medical books of n. i. the different diseases, it will be found that the ingredients composing the "Golden Medical Discovery" are advised not only for the cure of the above mentioned diseases, but also for the cure of all catarhal, bronchial and throat affections, accompanied with catarral discharges, boarseness, sore throat, lingering, or irritation of the eyes, and if not promptly affections which, if not promptly treated are liable to terminate in consumption. Take Dr. Pierce's Discovery in time and persevere in its use until you give it a fair rival and it is not likely to disappoint. Too much must not be expected. It will not perform miracles. It will not cure consumption in its advanced stages. No medicine will. It will cure the affections that lead up to consumption, if taken in time.

"Our little girl, one year and a half old, was taken with eczema or that was what the doctor said it was. We called in the family doctor and he gave some tablets and said she would be all right in a few days. The eczema grew worse and we called in doctor No. 2. He said she was teething; as soon as the teeth were through she would be all right. But she still grew worse. Doctor No. 3 it was eczema. By this time she was nothing but a yellow, greismish sore. Well, he said he could help her, so we let him try it about a week. One morning we discovered a little yellow pimple on one of her eyes. Of course we 'phoned for doctor No. 3. He came over and looked her over and said that he could not do anything more for her, that we had better take to some eye specialist, since it was an ulcer. So we went to Oswego to doctor No. 4, and he said the eyesight was gone, but that he could help it. We thought we would try doctor No. 5. Well, that proved the same, only he charged $10 more than the doctor. No. 4 needed discouraged. I saw one of the Cuticura advertisements in the paper and thought we would try the Cuticura Treatment, so I went and purchased a set of Cuticura Rephedies, which cost me $1, and in three days, which cost me $1, and in three about eight months, showed great improvement, and in one week all sores had disappeared. Of course it could not restore the eyesight, but if we had used Cuticura in time I am confident that it would have saved the eye. We think there is no remedy so good for any skin trouble or impurity of the blood as Cuticura. Mr. and Mrs. Frank Abbott, R. F. D. No. 9, Fulton, Oswego Co. N.
