Dr. Cook Is Given a Tremendous Welcome in New York City. Cook's Rival Arrived in Sydney and Announced That He "Brought Back the Pole." New York City—"I have come from the pole. I have brought my story and my data with me. I have not come home to enter into arguments with one man or with fifty men, but I am here to present a clear record of a piece of work over which I have a right to display a certain amount of pride. I am perfectly willing to abide by the final cordict of this record of competent judges. That must be the last word, and that alone can satisfy me and the public. Furthermore, not only will my report be before you in black and white, but I will also bring to America human witnesses to prove that. I have been to the pole." Such is the sum and substance of the first message Dr. Frederick A. Cook, brought home in person to America, answering his critics the world over. The teamship Oscar II had purportedly held back not to disassemble the reception plans of the club. Club of America, but she nosed her way into Quarantine an hour too early for everybody but Dr. Cook. A speck in the distance began to assume dimensions. Presently, it was recognizable as the tug bearing Mrs. Cook and her two daughters, Quickly the tug, game alongside, and, while the heavy swell running around her fenders against the plates of her big mister, Dr. Cook clambered nimbly down Jacob's ladder and within concern for the cameras trained on him, made a rush for his wife. For the moment, he even missed the children, who stood a few feet away, until his wife-silently led him to them. Then, as he lifted his youngest daughter to his shoulder, the silent, watching crowd that lined on the rails of the Oscar II broke into a storm of cheers. Brown, positive, patient, taciturn, Hi. Cook endures the business of being a hero with courtesy, but no eminence; as he stood beside Bradley, his backer, the contrast was unparent. Bradley looked the typical man about town, barbered, tailored, polished, immaculate and indifferent. Cook a little ill at ease, smiled continually in an qdd sort of way, as a man wholly sure of it, but not so certain of the impression he was making. It was a good impression, though here as abroad, for the crowd liked his simplicity, which seemed to carry conviction. As he stepped ashore, it was not noticeable that no representative of the nation the state or the city was there to greet him. Bird S. Coler, president of the borough of Brooklyn, had welcomed him on the Grand Republic for that borough; but the City of New York sent no official representative. A. Judey, N. S.—Commander Robert H. Peary, will accept no invitations to receptions and no public honors until the question of the discovery of the North Pole has been decided by scientific authorities. This he made known in the following statement which he gave out for publication: "In kind advice of General Thomas Hibbard and Horatio L. Bridgman, president and secretary, respectively, of the Peary Arctic Club, I wish to express my thanks to my friends for their kind offers and invitations, and also beg to say that I have decided not to accept any invitations to receptions or any ovations until the present controversy is settled by competent authority." Commander Peary supplemented this briefly. He was asked when the public was likely to get a decision on this subject, and he replied: "I do not know, but what I have to say will not be very long delayed. Whether my statement will be issued in one week or two weeks depends on circumstances. "Eleven times I have left Sydney for the north," said the commander. "Once I brought back the largest meter ever found; the last time I brought back my farthest north record; and this time I have brought back the North Pole." When the Roosevelt lay at the city what an eager throng of sightseers visited the ship and went through her from stem to stern. Souvenir hunters carried away everything possible, and many valuable records and data belonging to Professor McMillan were lost. The missing books are of immense value and cannot be replaced, but the authorities are issuing a public appeal for their return. REFUSED TO SAVE WIFE FROM PRISON. Cleveland Brewer-Would.

SAVANNAH, GA., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1909. FORTIFYING THE CANAL Government to Spend $7,500,000 On Defenses at Panama. Washington, D. C.—When the Panama canal is completed, it will be defended by one of the greatest systems of fortifications in the world. A reporter saw the sketches and the plans for the defenses for the greatest engineering work of history. It was learned that the plans for the forts and other defenses of the canal were carefully gone over by Secretary of War Dickinson and Major General Bell, chief of the general staff of the army, during their visit some months ago. The locations on which forts will be erected were inspected with great care and the general plans of the fortifications of the canal discussed at length and from every angle. The plans, which later were begun by engineer officers of the army, have been in process of formation ever since. "These plans are very comprehensive and provide for an outlay of more than $7,500,000," a war department official said. The plans contemplate the expenditure of about $4,000,000 at the Pacific mouth of the canal and about $3,500,000 on the Atlantic side. The plans for the forts on the Pacific include heavy batteries of 12-inch guns on the small islands lying off the mouth of the canal for ten miles. In addition to battries on these islands the plans include forts at Ancon and San Juan, respectively, on each entrance to the canal. The battery at Ancon would be adjacent to Balboa, the new name for the port to be located near the place where the canal will empty into the Pacific. It is proposed to construct another great fort at Pedro Migue, six miles inland. The great locks of the canal will be located at this point, and this will be for their immediate protection. At Culebra, a point half way across the canal, the plans include the establishment of a large military post, which, under the present plans, would cost $500,000. The fortifications for the Atlantic mouth of the canal are to be erected at El Boco point, just across from Colon, and will be equally extensive. TO DIVIDE CALIFORNIA. People of Southern Part of the State Want Chance. Washington, D. C. — The recent threat of a body of citizens in California to establish another state within California's boiler, because of dissatisfaction with taxation method, has attracted the attention of officials here. The United States constitution provides that "no state shall be formed or erected within the jurisdiction of any other state; nor shall any state be formed" by the junction of two or more states, or parts of states, without the consent of the legislatures of the states concerned, as well as the congress." This constitutional provision, together with the manner in which California was carved out of other territory, is pointed to as reasons why such a threat would likely never reach more definite form. It is not the first time that the question of the division of California has arisen, for taxation was a problem that started such an agitation as long ago as 1849. At that time during the constitutional convention at Monterey, there was talk of overthrowing the northern influence in California; then a territory, and so to make possible an ultimate division of the state, in case the southern ones of paidepe sq oj paidepred life. Not long before the outbreak of the civil war there was renewed talk of division of the state, and there have been meetings in Los Angeles and Santa Barbara county and elsewhere at various times in a sporadic effort along this line. OPERA SINGERS BLACKMAILED. They Have Been Paying Money to Escape Being Hissed. New York City—Detectives have been retained to break up a organization of men who are asked to have netted a considerable income from grand opera singers who, prefer a plausion to hisses. Humors several seasons old that certain opera singers employed persons in the audience to applaud them, were given credence by the managements of two opera houses when they declared that such singers had been the victims of blackmail and that whatever money they had given was more to prevent being hissed than to obtain applause. According to several well known singers they had been approached by members of this band, who had plainly informed them that unless they paid liberally for applause, their singing would be hissed. Experience had shown that those who did not pay were hissed. The managers declare they will break up the practice. 573.561 Allens for America. Washington, D. C.-A net increase of 573,561 in the population of the United States by the arrival and departure of aliens was scored during the last fiscal year, as against an increase of 209,867 the previous year. There was a falling off in immigration from 782,870 to 751,786. U. S. Treasurer Bestoms Washington, D. C.-United States Treasurer, Charles H. Treat sent this resignation to President Tatt to take effect in October. Mr. Treat has been treasurer since July 1, 1905, being promoted at that time from the office of the collector of internal revenue at York City. GOV. JOHNSON IS DEAD Chief Executive of Minnesota Passes Away. DEATH FOLLOWED OPERATION "Well, Nora, I Guess I'm Going; We Have Made a Brave Fight," Last Words of Governor Johnson. Rochester, Minn.—Governor John A. Johnson, three times elected governor of Minnesota, a candidate for the democratic nomination for president of the United States in 1908, and looked upon by many throughout the country as the probable democratic national standard bearer in 1912, died at St. Mary's hospital here following an operation last week. Governor Johnson's life hung continually in the balance until the end came. So frequently did his condition change alternately for better and then for worse, that his physicians, hopeful, but none too optimistic, were able to say at no time since the operation was performed that the governor had more than an even chance for his life. When the governor had breathed his last, Mrs. Johnson, who was at her husband's side totally collapsed. Toward the end the governor re- ```markdown ``` GOVERNOR JOHNSON. vived and raised himself several times to pat his wife on the cheek. His last words were: "Well, Nora, I guess I'm going; we have made a brave fight." Few men in this generation who have risen to eminence achieved it after overcoming so many hardships in early life as did John Albert Johnson, governor of Minnesota. The youthful struggles of Abraham Lincoln alone are to be compared to the early years of Governor Johnson. Governor Johnson was born July 28, 1861, in St. Peter, Nicollet county, Minn., of Swedish parents. At twelve he was compelled to leave school, just as he had acquired the rudiments of an education. His family needed support; there were younger members of the family crying for food; his father was ill and his mother had to take in washing to help support her brood. As a boy John Johnson set bravely out to support his family. Though his formal education in the school at St. Peter was halted, his self-education never stopped. When through work he read all the books in the village library. A students at all times, with the self-balance and the self-control of the student, a wide reader and thoughtful, he went through years of hard toll as a grocery and drug store clerk. Later he was a railway time keeper in the days When the great transcontinental roads were pushing through the forests of Minnesota. At the age of twenty-two he never had owned an overcoat. Two years later he was forced into the editorship of the St. Peter Herald. Five years later he was secretary of the state press association—eighty per cent republican—and In three years more he was president of the organization. He had married in 1894 Miss Elinore Pheston, a drawing teacher. Twice Governor Johnson ran for DIVORCE FOR VANDERBILT. Like Father, Wm. K. Vanderbilt, Jr., Will Separate from Wife. New York City—William K. Vanderbilt, Jr., brother of the Vanderbilt cup for automobile races, of his wife, formerly Miss. Virginia Foir of San Francisco, have signed a separation agreement, Mrs. Vanderbilt now returning from Europe to America with her two children, Murrel and William K. Vanderbilt III. It is expected that the separation will be formally announced as soon as Mrs. Vanderbilt reaches New York. Efforts in Mrs. O. H. P. Beltmont, mother of Mrs. Vanderbilt, and Mrs. Herman O. Bricht, sister of Mrs. Vanderbilt, will divert the separation were unsuccessful. the state senate, and was defeated, Four years after his last, defeat he was elected to the legislature and served through two-sessions. His career, even at that early time, was notable for the leadership of his party in an unsuccessful fight for an increased tax on the gross earnings of trallways. In 1904 Governor Johnson ran for governor and accomplished the seemingly impossible feat of overcoming a republican plurality of 161,000 and winning by 8,000 votes. For the succeeding term he was reelected, receiving a plurality of 77,000 in a republican state, with a republican legislature back of him January of this year saw the beginning third term. The record of progress made in legislation while he was governor is a long story. A state expert tax commission was created. The steel trust was forced to pay taxes on $190,000,000; whereas before it had paid only pn $22,000,000. The 2-cent law was put through against the united opposition of the corporate interests Governor Johnson could not be bought. Sleeping car companies were taxed, a modern mortgage tax measure became a law, a reciprocal demurrage laws were enacted and enforced, a free staee employment bureau was formed, and as a rap at the combination which controlled the marketing of binder twine, of which Minnesota uses much, a state binder plant was established and its product sold to the farmers at cost. Railway passes were abolished, domestic insurance reforms were enforced by the governor and his friends, and Governor [Image of a man's profile] OF MINNESOTA. several cheek ing; w who loved it dressings t John brahman armed to Johnson. July 28, county, twelve school, iments needed mem- er food; her had supports. Johnson later took leading participation in national insurance reforms. The whole secret of his wonderful career may be summed up in two things: He was remarkably close to the people; he was honest and had common sense. He was tall, thin and had a story that his career in citizen military never altered. His face was intense, comely, but indelibly marked with the cares of a boy. In the campaign of 1908 he was choice of a large part of the democratic party for the presidency, and conservative interests supported him against Bryan. Had he lived he would have probably been the democratic standard bearer in 1912. Lieutenant Governor Eberhart was sworn in as the successor of Governor John A. Johnson. DRINK CAUSED DESIRE TO BURN. Roy Kennedy Confesses to Starting 13 Fires in Six Weeks. Nowata, Okla.-Hoy Kennedy, in an alleged confession to the county authorities here, is said to have admi- tured that he is responsible for thirteen fires at Nowata during the last six weeks. Kennedy said: "When I have drink in the fire, I have other desire than to burn something." Nowata has sustained two hundred thousand dollars' loss by fires very recently. New Japanese Ambassador to U. S. Tokio, Japan.—Official announcement as been made of the appointment of Y. Uchida, former minister of foreign affairs and now ambassador to the court of Austria, to succeed Takahira, Japanese minister of Washington. Washington, D. C.-Mr. Uchida is spoken of at the leagion as the leading diplomat of Tokyo, and is especially versed in international law and political science. He is about 45 years of age. Bishop Seth Ward Dead. Tokio, Japan—Bishop Beth, Ward of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, died in Japan. The bishop arrived in Kobe last month on his regular tour of Inspection of the Methodist missions of Japan, and he was taken ill shortly after his arrival. Last week he was reported as gradually stinking, and the fatat termination of illness was not unexpected. No Wine at Tall Banquet. Jackson, Miss. The Photogrant Pastors Association of this city has decided to protest against serving wine or any alcoholic beverages at the banquet to President Taft on November 1st. STORM SWEEPS COAST At Mobile, Streets Were Flooded By Wind Driven Waters—Many Washouts on Railroads. Memphis, Tenn.—With lines of communication still interrupted and with practically no information whatever from any but the larger cities and towns, it is now, known that the equinoxial gale covered all the coast country from Florida to Texas, extending with its full force as far north as the Alabama boundary, through southern Mississippi and Louisiana and up the river as far, as Natthez and Vicksburg, Later, the storm turned northward with diminishing force, reaching Jackson, Miss., giving Memphis a touch of its tall and passing on to Nashville and the north. It is now established that none of the great cities in the path of the storm suffered any appalling disaster, though, of course, they were all damaged, to some extent. There were four lives lost at New Orleans. Jackson, Miss., reports the killing of two men, who were crushed under a failing building. At all these places and at other localities of less importance there was destruction of property. But as to the interior country the greatest apprehension has been entertained and from all that area there has been absolutely no information. From points in southern Mississippi and along the Mississippi river comes strong confirmation of serious destruction. Damages were wrought at Vicksburg, Natchez, Johnson and McComb City, and it is ominously stated that the storm swept over the timber country of south Mississippi with cyclonic force, felling the trees that constitute the wealth of that section. It was through this same area that tornadoes of recent years have passed, carrying death and destruction. Information from Jackson is to the effect that the storm had force enough to damage the new and the old capitol buildings, than which there are no staucher structures in the state. At McComb City the railroad buildings were injured by, the wind and freight cars were lifted from tracks, among the best information obtainable. It is possible to aver that the sensational rumors of destruction in the city of Natchez, Miss., by fire, following the hurricane and flood, are without foundation. FOREIGN MONEY FOR THIS COUNTRY. Hundreds of Millions of Dollar Are Coming From Europe Washington, D. C.—"Hundreds of millions of dollars are in England, France and Germany awaiting investment in American railroad securities as soon as the investors can be assured of absolute federal regulation." This statement was made by Commissioner Franklin P. Lane of the interstate commerce commission, who has just returned from a trip of nearly three months in Europe. He visited England, France, Germany, Switzerland and Italy, and studied the railroad situation in all of those countries. "Men of money abroad," continued Commissioner Lane, "are satisfied that America is on the eve of a phenomenal era of prosperity, and are ready to invest their money in any stable enterprise in this country; but what they want is some assurance from the government that their investments will be protected in a fair way. They would like to see the capitalization of our railroads hedged about by federal legislation, so that the purchaser of stock would be assured of getting what he paid for. With the enactment of a law to prevent overcapitalization, American railroads would have no difficulty in obtaining in Europe all the money necessary for their development." The new tariff law of August 5 late does not apply to the Isthmian Canal zone, according to a decision given by Acting Attorney General Wade H. Ellis, to the secretary of war. The Canal Zone is not one of the "possessions" of the United States within the meaning of that term in the first clause of the tariff act, says the acting attorney-general, but rather is a place object to the use, occupation and control of the United States for the construction, maintenance of a ship canal connecting the waters of the Atlantic and Pacific. The effect of this decision will be to continue the present system by which the Panama government collects duties on importations. Senor Rios, a republican deputy of Barcelona, Spain, states that one hundred and twenty schools in Barcelona were closed and would not be reopened without the approval of the mayor and the parish priestess. He declared also that there were over three thousand persons in custody of Barcelona charged with participation in the recent voting, in that city. The public schools of the fireboroughs of Greater New York unpaused with fifty thousand children unable to gain admission for the full course. W. H. Maxwell superintendent of schools, estimates there are six hundred and seventy-eight thousand applicants for enrollment. The sixty thousand who are left out will be compelled to attend half sessions. As the strain of the St. Francis led Banner, played by a crass band of forty Highlanders died away the Roman Cathoic priest at Aberdeen, Scotland, read the marriages, uniting Miss Anita Stewart, master of Mrs. James Henry Sims of New York, to Miguel off Brandon son of the pretender to the Wiggee throne, Denouncing the connecting Horner's name with his assss and charging that his wife's divorce has grown out of his ent refusal to embrace Theosophy Major J. P. Hanson, president Central of Georgia railway, she has the Georgia superior court his answer his wife's petition for divorce being practically every charge brought by Theosophy Major Hanson stamps some of these charges in "unqualifiedly and absolutely true" while others he forms "freely and absurdly untrue." On the whole he charges that Theosophy broke up his home. J. P. Morgan, Jr., was elected to the late E. H. Harriman's place on the board of directors of the National City bank. By Wall street the election is regarded as one of the most significant of the week's financial developments, presumably indicating that harmonious relations exist between the Morgan and the Kukulcan Loeb-Standard oil groups of financiers. Added weight was given the event because it followed so closely upon the recent reports that the Morgan interests were about to take an active interest in the governments of the Harriman roads and that the younger Morgan was slated as the ultimate successor of Mr. Harriman in the command of the Union and Southern Pacific systems. The Alaska-Yukon-Pacific expoion entered its last quarter with every cent of its floating indebtedness paid. An important archaeological discovery was announced in Mexico City by Professor Ramón Mena, who headed a government expeditor to Oruroba in the state of Mexico, which has uncovered a buried city, of great antiquity. A pyramid similar to that uncovered at San Juan de Toothsacal has been exposed. The pyramid is sixty feet in height and measures two hundred feet square at the base. The reimals indicate that the city was built and occupied in the time of the Toletecs. Captain Natharton of the steamboat Comedian reported three different off-bubbling from the surface. The Gulf of Mexico, one hundred and sixty miles southeast of Galveston Soundings showed a depth of 5,000 feet. The spring comes from an extension of the oil bearing strata of the Beaumont field.

Each device will be tested for one week in a number of post offices and in the railway mail service. Fifteen companies mining-coal in the Coal Creek fields in Tennessee filed a complaint with the interstate commerce commission, charging that the Southern Railway company discriminates against them in the rate on coal as compared with those accorded operators In the Appalachian Tom's Creek and Black Mountain districts of Virginia. It is urged that the differential of 80 cents in Knoxville given on the Coal Creek coal should be maintained in shipments to South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and other southern points when passing through Knoxville. To points in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia reached by beaver field through Morristown. The company claimed that the same rate applies beyond that junction, the ferential to that point of steet of 25 cents, in favor of the Creek field. The rates in the plants are also made the same in the plant. The const and goodness of the undertake to arbitrate the Pacific north pole costly property should Cook request its assistance.

Travelling libraries have deen in- stalled in.many merchant vessels by a society which has ‘interested itself in-purveying that sort of pabulum for sailors. They are open to all the sea- mez, each Snan being allowed to draw one kook at a time. The captain of each vessel records the books the sailors have read and have liked best, and his reports are gent in to the headquarters of the so- clety that provides the Ilterature. The Bookman gives the following sathple of one of these reports. The books indicated were the three favorites of each of the seamen named during the trip of the vessel from New York to Foochow: YALUB Of 6HADE FOR POULTRY.

As soon as one crop is harvested spade up the ground and plant something else in the place of it. Keep the ground at work. You know the old saying, "Satan always finds some work for idle hands to do." It is about the samer with the ground in the garden as with the hands. It is not growing something useful it will be growing something harmful. Better seed it yourself than be content with what will come spontaneously.—Farmers' Home Journal. --- Bain Crows and the Potato Bug. Iain Crowd and the Potato Bug. F. D. Maize, of Dickson, Tenn., who is an experienced gardener and potato grower, says that the rain crow is the only bird in the country which will destroy the potato bug. This bird somewhat resembles the common dove, both in size and color. Unfortunately, Mr. Maize says, this bird is becoming extinct, and unless protected by rigidly enforced laws, will disappear, he fears, within the next few years. A pair of them nesting about his garden the present year has devoured thousands of the Colorado beetle, while all other birds have scorned the potato patch menu with a vengeance. Separating the Seves. A great deal is said of the necessity for separating the sexes, some insisting that it should be done as soon as sex can be determined. In Asiatics it is not often necessary until the chicks are pretty well grown. In bowls of the Mediterranean varieties separation must be made quite early. In American varieties it depends upon the stock and the stage of development of the individual cockerels. Frequently the removal of a few of the cockerels disposed to annoy the pullets makes it possible to keep males and females peaceably together until well along in the season. In many cases the separation can be made early as well as later, the chicks being divided into small lots anyway, and it being just as easy to separate by sex. — Farmers' Home Journal. Black Leg. Dr. David Roberts, Wisconsin State veterinarian, says: "Black leg is a disease that very much resembles anthrax, incurable and fatal. The symptoms are very much the same as those of anthrax, excepting the animals may live a few days longer with anthrax than with black leg. "Black leg only affects younger animals, while anthrax affects both. Perhaps the strongest symptoms of black leg is a gathering of air or swelling underneath the skin of the affected animals. This usually takes place a few hours after the animal becomes infected and in tapping upon the swelling it sounds as if there was air underneath the skin. "This swelling may be located on the, thighs, neck, shoulders, breast, hock joints, flank or rump. There is no treatment for black leg-excepting a preventive. This is done by vaccinating the balance of the herd with black leg vaccine, which is a very successful method of preventingsame." Work of the Dairy Division. Prof. Webster, chief of the dairy division of the National Department of Agriculture, says that his division has conducted an experiment in making some 5000 pounds of butter under varying conditions, and carrying it for storage for several months at different temperatures. The conclusion reached is that light salting and low temperature with the use of sweet cream give much the best results for storage butter. Further experiments with an additional 2000 pounds of butter are now in progress. Suggesting that the butter makers should take kindly to the work of the government, Prof. Webster replied: "Yes, they do as a rule. We have 'butted in,' as the saying goes, between some of the butter makers and the creamy owners on the one hand and the markets to which they ship on the other. The butter as it comes in the large cities is being studied and the results reported to the makers. At first this work was looked upon somewhat askance by the butter makers, but they soon found that we were helping them and helping also to establish confidence between the butter maker and the butter merchant. During the past year a thousand creameries have been assisted in this manner, many of them to their material advantage. The Dairy Division has also introduced a method of easily determining the water content in butter. Such determination a matter of importance to the maker and the dealer, but the old method was expensive, difficult and required several hours. The new method is very cheap and takes only about twenty minutes of the time of a man of average intelligence. "We think we have made considerable progress in demonstrating the feasibility of making high prices, im- ported types of cheese in this country, in showing what can be done in keeping milk for long periods without preservatives, in investigating the work of milking merchants, which is now a practical institution and in working out plans for various dairy, creamery, refrigerating and other farm buildings—which we are glad to furnish upon application—and in enforcing, the regulations requiring sanitary renovated butter." Figure the Cost of Production. My opinion is that there are few farmers who know what it costs them to produce a bushel of corn, wheat, oats, barley, potatoes or other farm crops. It would be an advantage to the farmer if he did know just what a bushel of these various products cost him to produce and deliver in his local market. Why does not the farmer make a greater effort to learn what his crops cost him to produce, the same as a manufacturer learns what it costs to manufacture a hoe, shovel, plow, carpet or piece of cloth? Many farmers have never spent time in thinking or planning about this subject of the cost on production. The principal reason why farmers do not pay greater attention to the cost of growing a bushel of corn or potatoes, is that they seem to think that they are producing it at the lowest possible cost in any event, and that it would be folly in trying to learn the actual cost of production. This is not good reasoning, for if the farmer knew what it cost him to produce these products, and he found that he was producing them at a loss, he could stop growing those particular crops, that paid him no profit, and confine himself to those crops which do pay him a profit. But there are other reasons why farmers do not give this subject more attention. One is this: The farmer finds that the cost of producing a certain crop one year might vary greatly the next year. Excessive drouth one year or excessive rains another year, frosts or the variations of prices, would make such changes one year from another that it would discourage the farmer from attempting to learn precisely what it cost him to produce any certain crop. It is my opinion and the opinion of many, that larger profits could be made by farmers if they would make a greater effort to get a larger yield per acre by enriching the soil, by giving extraordinary cultivation, by drainage and other improved methods, rather than to attempt, as many do, to make up for a small yield per acre by cultivating a larger territory. —Fruit Grower. Stringy Cream and Milk Excessive bacteria is, of course, the real cause of the stringy cream and milk frequently complained about. Touching this matter Hearn's Dalryman says: The books say but: little about stringy cream, but a good deal about stringy or ropy milk. If the milk when first drawn shows no roiness or stringiness, but after standing twelve to thirty-six hours, develops a thickening and stringy appearance; there is no question but what bacteria are the cause of the trouble. There are many kinds of bacteria which produce this condition, but it is enough for our present purpose to say bacteria without going into the special forms which the bacterologists have discovered. Very frequently the milk is seeded with these bacteria from the water used in washing and rinsing the pails, cans and other milking vessels. This suggests at once that these milking vessels should be thoroughly sterilized before being used. To do this they should be subjected for some minutes to live steam or to absolutely boiling water—simply hot water is not enough, it must be boiling. Pour into the can and then cover and allow the steam to kill everything that has life that may be in the seams or on the sides of the vessel. Another source is in the stagnant pools in which cows love to wade and the grass and weeds through which they travel. In this care, bacteria gets upon the legs and upon the udder and flanks of the cows and during the process of milking some of them are dislodged and fall into the milk, where they rapidly multiply and in time produce a stringy character of the milk or cream. Still another source may be in the dust of the stable, which falling into the milk pails seeds the milk with these offensive bacteria. In either of these cases the remedy is, of course, to avoid the lease. Brush the udders and flanks of the cows before milking and then dampen them so that the loose hair and clinging dirt will not fall into the pall. It is sometimes the case that one cow in the herd produces milk this objectionable character, butting it with the herd milk seeds whole mess with these bacteria would therefore be an excellent to keep each cow's milk separated a day or two and thus assemble one or two or more cows are responsible for the two and if they are take special care prevent anything telling from buffers or flasks into the milk pot.

A stag and its antlers almost as inseparable in the mind of the sports man as in the mind of one to wahoo. deer stalking is nothing but a name. Yet there are profly only hornless varieties of the family Cervidae, but not a few members of the great red deer group are found to have been denuded by nature as well as by ac- ident of the crowning glories of their race and sex. Stags without horns are called Hummie stags, and they are far from being the helpless creatures one might reasonably have imagined them. They have been, known to fight and to conquer, heavily antlered stags of their own weight. The appendages known as antlers are so far from being universal among the cervine tribes, that naturalists prefer to rely upon other characteristics in their definitions of the several families, and groups. But a hornless stag is so far an exception that the system of judging the merit of the stalkers' spot by the character of the head and the number of the tines or points is certainly the best that could be devised. Many years ago an antler with fifteen points was dug up from an Irish bog. Assuming an equal number on the antler that was missing, the mighty hart to which the horns belonged would have been a stag not of twelve or thirteen, but of thirty points. Such prizes are not, however, nowadays likely to fall into the lap of the Scottish deer stalkers, still less will they be able to send to the stuffers such magnificent examples as those which may be found in many an old German schloss. The continental deer have always been more heavily antlered than the British, a fact which may partly be accounted for by their having access to much better feeding than they are able to procure in Scotland. But remembering that heads of eighteen and twenty points have been killed in this country, it seems quite reasonable, that any head with tines in excess of the "royal" should be distinguished by a special designation. There is some difference of opinion as to what constitutes a royal hart. Strictly speaking the head should not only possess "brow," "bay" and "tay," and three on the top, but these last three—the "sur royals," as they are called—should form cups in order to qualify the head as "royal." The more generally accepted proposition, that a royal head is a head of twelve tines, is, however, also the most convenient in the awarding of honors where honors are due.—Country Gentleman. - No Coal Bill To Pay. "Well, I think I'll heat me coffee for dinner," said a big laborer on one of the many buildings now being constructed in Chelsea a few minutes before noon the other day. And he proceeded to do so without the aid of a fire or even the use of a match. He took his bottle from his handbag and with it went over to the woodsy contrivance in which mortar was mixed. He put about half a shoreful off sand in a corner of the mortar bed, having previously scraped that part of the bed dry and clean. When this laborer took a piece of lime about as large as his two fists. He pushed the lump of lime down into the yielding sand, put his bottle with sand to hold it in position, and was ready for the important part of the job. Dipping about a pint of water from a cask near by, the laborer poured it on the mounted sand easily, allowing it to percolate through the coarse grains. Putting on a little more sand to hold the bottle in its upright position, he went back to his work. In ten minutes the noon whistle blew, and this laborer went to his fireless heater, took from it his coffee boiling hot in a bottle that had at no time been in danger of breaking from the heat, and proceeded to enjoy his homely but hearty meal, all unconscious that he had performed a very interesting experiment in Nature's chemistry.—Tit-Bits. Glasgow's Population Decreasing. Glasgow's population is decreasing. The chief sanitary inspector of Glasgow says in his annual report that there was a decrease of 1,132 in the number of occupied houses in 1908 as compared with the total in 1907, representing a population of 5,551 persons. They had for the first time in Glasgow's recent history taken a step backward with regard to their total population. Since 1873—when the increase of population was only 23 over the number of persons residing in the city in 1872—Glasgow had steadily forged ahead at the rate of 9,550 persons added to the population annually until this last year. No adequate answer could be given as to whither the people had gone. The total; actual loss; for the year 1908 seems to have been over 12,800 persons—Westminster Gazette. The Preacher's Advice.

Eighteen months ago Colonel Noyes died on his honeymoon. The young widow sent her bridal costume to a convent in Bloomsbury, where four nuns spent a year embroidering it. The altar frontal is eight feet long and four feet deep, and it is designed in three panels. One of these panels bears an allegorical likeness of Colonel Noyes, represented as a medieval knight. The arms and mottoes of Colonel Noyes and the widows' family are embroidered over the panels. —New York Press. Divorce in England, it seems, is a luxury not always attainable by the poor, and Lord Gorell, has lately been pronouncing, upon the injustice of this. The poor, he says, should have equal facilities with the rich, dissolving the marriage tie. He closes one case which had come under his own notice of a man who pinched and hoarded twenty years, to get enough money to escape from a domestic relation, that was intolerable. Lord Gorell suggests that to a limited extent, subadoption in divorce and matrimonial cases should be conferred upon county courts, in order that the poor, may have a better chance to have cases of this nature heard.—New York Tribune.

The Atlanta Georgian has this to say of him: As a result of a report made by Revenue Agent E. L. Mills to Commissioner of Internal Revenue Royal E. Cabell, the office of 'collector H A Rucker has been paid a high compliment A communication has just been received from the commissioner quoting the inspector's report and announcing that the Atlanta office is classed as No. 1. The report shows that the cash lists and the stamp accounts were in balance and that the records were neatly kept and up to date. The records generally were declared to be in excellent condition and that no errors were found. The system of checking and veryfying was declared to be very complete and thorough. In conclusion, the report says the office appears to be well conducted and the work generally very satisfactory. How to Help the Pastor When summer is over, and the first heats of the fall are past, with the crisp air and longer evenings, renewed activity begins in church life. Pastor and people have had their vacation, and are settling down again to work in earnest. Every one can help the pastor by always being in the pew at the morning and evening services, if possible, and by faithfully attending the prayer meetings. Far more than most people think, they build up their church by prompt and punctual attendance whenever the doors are open. To visit other churches is a great temptation, but the duty of the church member and his family is, in the first place, to his own pastor and his church home. The pastor is helped, too, by every one who praises him, by every one who comments favorably on his sermons, and by every one who does not make unreasonable demands on his time. When one hears of a signally successful pastor, one may be sure that he ministers to an earnest and faithful congregation. —The Christian Herald. We Are Grateful. We feel very grateful to those of our subscribers who send on hand us their subscription as soon due. These believe fully in the Golden Rule. We know too, that there are others who would do likewise, but are not able at the proper time, but who always do their duty. We feel grateful to them also. There is another class that causes our collector to use much shoe leather and give nothing but promise. This is the class that makes it hard for business men. We would appreciate it very much if our subscribers would pay promptly, and for those who do not want the paper longer to notify us as soon as their time expires. This is the honest way to act.

St. Stephen's Episcopal Church and School These institutions located at Harris and Habersham streets, have been, and are still, a power for good in the community. Abhorring ostentation of any kind there is no blaze of trumpets of whats being done in this little church in God's Name and for Christ's little lambs through the medium of the Sunday school and St. Stephen's Kindergarten and Primary School. The services of the church are conducted in a reverent and dignified manner, the hearty congregational singing being a stimulus to strangers who are always welcome. As there are no rented pews in the church, visitors can sit wherever they wish. It would take too long in this brief article to enumerate the different ways in which St. Stephens moulded a healthier sentiment in church affairs. She has not only created a higher standard for church entertainments, but in a quiet way brought others, who used to hoot and jeer, to recognize the importance of Christmas and Easter and to properly commemorate them in honour of Him who came to be the world's Redeemer. In spite of the fact that the church has but a few members so to speak, on account of continued removals from the city it is selfsupporting and free of debt. The sermons of the rector, Archdeacon Bright are noted for their incisiveness, simplicity and brevity, so that those who attend the services at St. Stephen's do not spend all day in church, but have some time to themselves. It seems most natural that there should be a school in St Stephen's rectory for it was in that historic building that the first public school for colored people was held in Savannah. There are persons living today who can testify to that fact. It is no new thing therefore, for St. Stephen's Church to be associated with the education of the colored people. In 1813 the present rector and his wife established the first kindergarten for colored children in Georgia, and one of the first in the South. Since that time it has grown into a kindergarten and primary school, the children being taken to the third grade inclusive. During the school term fully 120 children are in attendance, children of every creed being represented, and the liberal mindedness of the man at the head of the work is shown by the fact that there is no obligation on the part of the children to attend St. Stephen's Church. There are few young men and women of note, in Savannah, who did not learn their first letters in this modest little school where was laid the true foundation upon which they have so wisely built that they occupy positions of trust and honour. As long as Archdeacon Bright is at this head of the school parents may be assured that their children will receive the same thorough training for which it has been famous. The school maintains a sowing and kitchen garden department in which the girls are taught sowing and the rudiments of Domestic Science. The school rooms are equipped with the most modern appliances and are as neat and attractive as can be found anywhere. Parents desirous of giving their children the proper start would do well to consult, Archdeacon Bright, 313 E Harris St. Opening of St. Benedict's School (Gaston and East Broad Streets.) St. Benedict's School will reopen next Friday Oct 1st. The school needs no recommendation. The efficient work accomplished in the past, especially in the last year, has won the praise and the admiration of all those who have sent their children. St. Benedict's School imparts to the children not only a thorough elementary education, but it also gives a solid moral training. It forms the character of our little ones and prepares them for the battle of life. The school is under the management of the priests of St. Benedict's Church, and the teaching is given by the Franciscan Sisters. The good Sisters will spend day after day in the humble class rooms. They do not work for any worldly interest, but theirs is a work of devotion and of love to the children under their care. Their noble task is to make our children champions of all that is high and noble, and to make them Christian men and women of the future. The sixth grade will be added to the course of studies this year. Over a hundred children frequented this school last year. I is expected that all the old pupils will come back on Oct. 1st, and there is room for about thirty other children. The priests who wish to send their children to St. Benedict's School are requested to send them there next Friday between 9 and 11 o'clock, when the teachers will be in the school rooms and will take the names of the pupils, appolint them to their respective grades and places and distribute the different books. For further particulars apply to St. Benedict's Recory 518 East Gordon Street. St Philip Dots. Sunday was everything but a pleasant day, rain all day and part of the night, but notwithstanding, endowment day was a success in attendance and in a financial way. The program arranged for the day was carried out to the letter. Rev. Lindsay preached at 11:00 a.m from Matt. 10:42, subject, "All avenues reward promised for small things." This was one of the most eloquent as well as consulting discourses to the christian that was ever delivered in this church. We would dwell more on the subject, but space will not allow. At 3 p.m the Sunday School primary department had its exercises which was one of the best for years. At 8 p.m the literary program was very good beyond the most sanguine expectation of the Sunday School officials. As- sistant Superintendent; W O Castlebury was master of ceremonies. The following ladies and gentlemen read papers on various subjects: Miss Hattie Hardwick, Mrs. S J K Waring, Mrs. M B Harris, Messrs. Louis Liggian, David Moses and W O Castlebury. The singing by Mr. J B Montrie and Misses Green, Galloway and Hudson was a treat to the audience. On account of the incomplete collection on the part of quite a number of children not reporting on account of the bad weather, the report from each class will be given in next week's paper. The following services will be held on tomorrow: prayer meeting at 5:30 a.m, preaching at 11 a.m, Sunday School at 3 p.m, A C EL at 4:30 p.m, preaching at 8:30 p.m. St. Benedict's Church.

Styles has been in bad health for several months. His wife preceeded him in death the first part of the years He leaves a number of children and relatives.

Mr. Jones' Death Mr. William Jones died shortly after one o'clock on Thursday after being seriously ill. The funeral will take place on Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock from Mt. Zion Baptist Church of which he was a faithful deacon. Mr. Jones was also a member of Savannah Lodge of Odd-Fellows and of Past Grand Masters' Council.

ORGANIZERS Men Sunday Club. The program rendered at the Men's Sunday Club last Sunday was simply a continuous flow of delight and inspiration. Only one participant was absent and rain was the cause of that. Notwithstanding the threatening weather there were about one hundred and fifty persons present. Middleton's band gave three classy numbers. The corner solo, "Rocked in the cradle of the deep" by Mr. Middleton, accompanied by the band, was entirely out of the ordinary and was loudly applauded. Mrs. Leola Jordon Wright was in excellent voice and charmed everyone with her rendition of the "Kock of Ages." Miss Wright is possesse of a voice which promises much and already besides natural ability shows care and training of a high order. Mr. Hart's cornet solo was heartily received. Miss Anna May Williams was perfectly delightful in her execution of the piano forte. Prof. L. B. Thompson's welcome address was timely and to the point, setting forth easy reasons why the Sunday Club should have the cooperation of the entire city, and what great and useful things could be accomplished for our people. Short talks were made by Mr. Harris Gordon, Prof. Grant, and Dr. Williams. A board of Governors will be installed to look after the government of the Men's Sunday Club. It is thought that this plan of management will be the best to maintain interest. Program for tomorrow as follows: Selection Club The Rainbow Outing On last Friday night the Rainbow Pleasure Club entertained many guests with an outing at Styles Park.

There is a colored millinery store in Savannah, there are a good many colored people who do not know it. We hope that the readers of THE TRIBUNE will tell their friends. If half of the Savannah colored women would buy their hats at this store we could give employment to over twenty-five young colored women. Had you not rather help your own girls than those of the opposite races? We seek your patronage not because we are colored but because we can give you the same for your money as any other store of its kind in the city. 509 West Broad street.

LONG DISTANCE MARKETING. ASaral Telephones: a Business Neces- sity to Every Farmer. Practically every business man in ‘the city has a telephone. Noone who deals with his commercial: colleagues would think of doing without the ‘phone—tit pays to have one. That's true In the city—but do you realize Just'how much more valuable the tel- ephone {fs to the farmer? Those with ‘whom he deals‘are often miles away, To him it fs an absolute necessity, and to do without would be worse than uncomfortable. For instance, take the, stock ratser wha, wants to sell some animals. ‘What_a job it is to drive them along the road, to find his man, and, ff the bargain is not made, to drive‘them all back@again. If he has a telephone, arrangements are made for a meet- ing, pr even a dicker can be made over the long distance wire. What a relief it Is to the farmer to do ablé to find out how prices are in town-—to watch for 2 good market ‘and gell at best advantage to himself. ‘Yes, a réllef, but not only that, a sav- tng of money—real, Jingling coin in his pocket. . 7” A glance at the sales reported this season gives an Idea of the growing rpopularity of this ‘great medium of -comfort and convenience. The West- :ern Elactrie Company, the largest manufacturers of telephones and tele- phone apparatus in the world, sup- lying the entire Bell system with ap- cpliances, reports having sold no less ‘than 50,000 rural telephones in the past sixty days.

Pinkham's Vegetable Compound MARLTON, N.J.—I feel that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has ```markdown ``` I suffered for ten years with serious female troubles, inflammation, ulceration, indigestion, nervousness, and could not sleep. Doctor saw me and they said me had troubles were chronic. I was in despair, and did not care whether I lived or died, when I read about Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; so I began to take it, and am well again and relieved of all my suffering." —Mrs. George Jordy, Box 40, Marlton, N.J. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, contains no narcotics or harmful drugs, and to-day holds the record for the largest number of actual cures of female diseases we know of, and thousands of voluntary testimonials are on file in the Pinkham laboratory at Lynn, Mass., from women who have been cured from almost every form of cancer, dislocation, fibroid tumors, irregularities, periodic pain, backache, indigestion and nervous prostration. Every suffering woman owes it to herself to give Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound a trial.

While excavating on the Lincoln Farm, preparatory to laying the foundation for the Memorial buildings now nearing completion, Robert H. Whitlow, one of the hands employed in the work, picked up a Spanish coin, bearing the date 1772. Not thinking of the valuable history which might be attached to this little coin, Mr. Whitlow took it home and his children have been using it as a plaything until last Monday, when Dr. W. E. Rodman called to wait on a case of typhoid fever in the family, and chanced to see it. From Mr. Whitlow he learned how he came in possession of it, and also secured permission from Mr. Whitlow to retain it and to bring the matter into public notice. The coin is well worn, and, from its every appearance, must have been lost a hundred years ago. It would do no violence to our imagination, nor yet strain a historical politit to assume that this same little coin was once the property of Thomas Lincoln, and that his distinguished son once made it a plaything as did the children of its more recent owner—Larue County Herald. WHERE THEY GOSSIP. "In Arizona it is considered healthy to mind your own business." "That idea wouldn't be at all popular among the Eastern health resorts."—Louisville Courier-Journal. A trained nurse says: "In the practice of my profession I have found so many points in favor of Grape-Nuts food that I unhesitatingly recommend it to all my patients. "It is delicate and pleasing to the palate (an essential in food for the sick) and can be adapted to all ages, being softened with milk or cream for bables or the aged when deficiency of teeth renders mastication impossible. For fever patients or those on liquid diet I find 'Grape-Nuts and albumen water very nourishing and refreshing.' "This recipe is my own idea and is made as follows: Soak a teaspoonful of Grape-Nuts in a glass of water for an hour, strain and serve with the beaten white of an egg and a spoonful of fruit juice for flavoring. This affords a great deal of nourishment that even the weakest stomach can assimilate without any distress. "My husband is a physician and he uses Grape-Nuts himself and orders it many times for his patients. "Personally I regard a dish of Grape-Nuts with fresh or stewed fruit as the ideal breakfast for anyone—well or slick." In any case of stomach trouble, nervous prostration or brain tag, a 10-day trial of Grape-Nuts will work wonders toward nourishing and rebuilding and in this way ending the trouble. "There's a Reason," and trial proves. Look in pkgs. for the famous little book, "The Road to Wellville." Ever read the aloveletter? A new one appears from time to time. They are genuine, true, and full of human interest. Good Things to Eat JIND HOW TO PREPARE THEM Prune Soup. Wash and soak one and a half pounds of prunes, over night, in four pints of water; the following day simmer gently for two hours with one thinly sliced lemon and a stick of cinnamon; half an hour, before serving. add half a cupful of sago and sugar to taste. The sago must be thoroughly dissolved and enough water added to make the quantity two quarts. Remove the cinnamon before serving.—New York Press. Crab and Olive Mayonnaise: Into some rather thick mayonnaise glir some not too finely chopped olives, and with this spread an equal number of slices of brown and white bread, covering half the slices with finely faked, cooked crab, previously seasoned lightly with oil and vinegar, salt and pepper; pressing the remaining halves over this, using one white slice and one brown slice; trim them neatly, and dish them alternately, so as to show the brown and the white bread.—New York Press. Sandwiches a La Cardinale. Pound together a quarter pound of cooked lobster, three tablespoonful of butter, two washed and boned anchovies, a dash of paprika, and the hard-bolled yolk of one egg, adding, if necessary, a few drops of red coloring to bring it to a pretty rose color. Spread some thinly sliced brown bread with this mixture, and lay on half the bread tiny pieces of cold cooked chicken, sprinkle the rest of the bread with chopped gergkins, press together and finish as usual.—New York Press. Queen Victoria's Favorite Soup. One cup of cold roast chicken chopped as fine as powder, a pint of strong chicken broth, a cup of sweet cream, one-half cup of bread or cracker crumbs, three yolks of eggs, one teaspoon of salt, one-half teaspoon of pepper. Soak the crumbs in a little of the cream; bring the broth to boiling point and add the meat. Break the eggs, separating the yolks and whites. Drop the yolks carefully into boiling water and boil hard; then rub to a powder and add to the soup with the cream and the seasoning. Simmer ten minutes and serve very hot.—Boston Post. Bamaquins of Lobster. One lobster, fresh or canned, one heaping tablespoonful of butter, four tablespoonfuls of cream or milk, one gill of fish stock or water, salt, pepper, paprika, one teaspoonful tarragon, vinegar, one tablespoonful of flour and yolk of one egg. Melt the butter in a saucepan, stir in the flour smoothly, then gradually add the stock and the milk and stir till it bolls and thickens. If cream is used, do not add it until the sauce has boiled and then been allowed to cool slightly. Next add the seasonings, vinegar and the beaten yolk of egg, and stir the sauce over the fire for a few minutes to cook the egg, but do not let it boil. Season it carefully. Put the meat from the small tips of the lobster claws on one side, and chop the rest coarsely. Stir it into the sauce gently, taking care not to break the pieces. Have ready some small china or paper ramaquin cakes. The paper ones, with a pale pink edge, look particularly dainty and effective for this dish. Put some of the lobster mixture in each case, heaping it up slightly, garnishing each with the tip of the shelled claw meat, and put the cases in the oven until the mixture is heated through.—New York Press. HOUSEHOLD HINTS Open windows at the top as well as from the bottom, and the air will be fresher, purer and cooler. Jellies made from fruits that are not acid are usually insipid and need either lemon or ginger to flavor them. Vinegar and water in equal parts, applied with slightly moistened rag, will remove fly specks from furniture. If the inside of the cream or mollasses pitcher is rubbed on edge of spout with a little butter it will not drip. Always use a double boiler for custards and cereals. The loss of time in cooking is more than cqualled by impossibility of burning. An easy way to keep windows clean when the screens are in is to rub them often with a flannel dipped in alcohol. A little kerosene answers as well. Bits of lemon and orange peel put in the pitcher of water on the wash stand will make the water very soft and give a very pleasing fragrance. It will be found a time saver to wash potatoes when they come from the store. Scrub them carefully and put where they will not get dusty. It will only be necessary to rinse them before using. It is much safer to use porcelainlined kettles for pickling and preserving. Many women own kettles that they put away and use only in preserving times. If scorched, even in one spot, a whole batch of preserves may be ruined. "The late Col. A. K. McClure was a brilliant raconteur," said a veteran Clover Club man. "Till never forget his pajama story. "Col. McClure told this story at a Clover Club dinner in the old Belvue of Philadelphia. It was a story about the Spanish War. "There was a regiment, it seems, recruited from Conshohocken, Cinnaminson, Wawa and Manunka Chunk and the ladies of those Pennsylvania towns got together after the regiment's departure and made a lot of pajamas for the soldiers. Pajamas were a new thing in those days; smart, exclusive, and so forth; the ordinary man wore a nightshirt. "Well, these pajamas, in a half-dozen big packing cases went duly Cubawards, but no word of their arrival ever came back. The ladies waited about a month. Then they wired to the colonel, a genial, wholesouled Conshohockener: "Anxious to know if you got the pajamas last month." "The colonel had never heard of pajamas. He wired back: "Story is a lie out of whole cloth, probably fabricated by enemies to ruin me politically. Admit am not total abstainer, but never had pajamas last month or any other time."" —Philadelphia Evening Bulletin. Thoroughly Prepared. At a religious service in Scotland the late Kelvin noticed a youngster accompanying his grandparents and sitting wise as a young owl through the sermon. At the close of service Lord Kelvin congratulated the grandfather upon the excellence of the young man's behavior. "Och, ayer" returned the veteran "Duncan's weel threatened afore he gangs in."—New York Evening Mall. There are thirty-nine letters in the Russian alphabet. CALL AN AMBULANCE.

Child a Mass of Dreadful Sore, Iching, Irritating Humor for 2 Months —In Terrible Plight—Disease Cured by Cuticura. "My six year old daughter had the dreadful disease called hives for two months. She became afflicted by playing with children who had it. By scratching she caused large sores which were irritating. Her body was a complete sore but it was worse on her arms and back. We employed a physician who left medicine but it did not help her and I tried several remedies but without avail. Seeing the Cuticura Remedies advertised, I thought I would try them. I gave her a hot bath daily with Cuticura Soap and anointed her body with Cuticura Ointment. The first treatment relieved the itching and in a short time the disease disappeared. Mrs. G. L.

A number of the Texas railroads and the express companies have agreed to carry free such supplies as may be sent to the relief committee at Monterey, which {s now most active in distributing food to those places where help ts most needed and which can be reached by railroad or over- land transportation. $5000 Raised by Women, In this city alone more than $5000 was hurriedly raised by public sub- seription. Women of the city gath- ered supplies, both clothing and food, and rushed several cars to the border and into the capital of Northern Mex- ico as soon as railway transportation was restored. The Republic of Mexico also came with 2 hurried response to the first stories of distress. It {s not suffi clent, although the Mexican people were as liberal as finances and condl- tions would permit. For this the peo- ple of Monterey made grateful ac- knowledgment, but the need of suc- cor is still great. Unless the United States. which has always been “liber- al to those in distress,” rushes to the assistance of her near and good neigh- bor acros3 the border, the increase In the number of dead and the extent of the suffering in the flooded district will be frightful to behold.
