There is a great disposition on the part of our race to lay great stores upon the future of our race, and in so doing they overlook those things which are the surest passports to racial success. We should not overlook the fact that upon the rising generation rests the future of our race. And when we give this matter care ful consideration we must admit that the outlook could be more favorable. First we notice that a large number of our boys and girls are sadly in need of good manners. Their convict on the street, in public places, especially in church is not only a disgrace to themselves but an unpleasant reflection upon their parents. We frequently meet young girls in their teens who in appearance would be ornaments to society, but on coming in contact with them we find them to be uncouth, illmannered and experts in the use of slang. They will stand in the presence of their mothers and use slang phrases with impunity, such as the following; "you are not so warm" or "you are not the only pebble on the beach" "you don't look like money to me" "you got to show me" "any time they think I suit they are away off" etc. And their parents seem to consider them witty girls and bright girls, but as a matter of fact it is disgraceful, vulgar and a reproach upon their parents. These same girls will go to church a half hour or so behind their parents and take a seat near the door. They are soon followed by a gang of hoodlums, and with no regard for their surroundings proceed to act in the most unbecoming manner. And while the preacher is pronouncing benediction they go filing out of the church like cattle. The parents of these boys and girls are responsible for their conduct, and it is only a matter of time until these hoodlum characteristics will react to the sorrow and remorse of their parents. This condition of affairs has grown to such an extent that a polite, well behaved and dignified boy or girl is a subject of comment among their acquaintances. If a boy or girl passes a priceieess jewel it is good manners. The parents should not condone this rowdyism by watching without interest and with apparent complaisance this hoodlum conduct on the part of their children. We have frequently noticed these girls rnd boys when in church during the hour of prayer they never think of bowing their heads but take advantage of the opportunity to make signs, flirt and engage in other ugly conduct. Then again it is a common sight to see girls of tender age walking leisurely along the street at night all alone looking in the show windows. Parents should not allow their girls on the streets at night unless they know where they were and with whom they were. It is in the care of these boys and girls that we must commence to solve the race problem. They should be taught to respect their parents and others; they should be taught to honor their homes for --- I COURSES When you write Mention this paper in time they will be called upon to preside over homes of, their own, and the health of a race, like that of an individual is safe only when the atmosphere of home life is untainted-Independent LOCAL ITEMS.

The Burton-Tillman debate has closed and the world has had an opportunity to learn who the ignorant man of the South really is, Ben Tillman's bluster of ignorance and vulgarity is an excellent specimen of the Southern white man's intelligence. When Booker T. Washington. ex-Congressman George White or John Mitchell, jr., make a trip North the people see and hear the brains of the South—the men who have a perfect right to the ballot and know for what it was made. They are the real, true, cultured and refined gentlemen. Imagine the spectacle of Ben Tillman out here in educated Kansas trying to debate before one of our refined audiences. It is as amusing as a hippopotamus trying to give an exhibition on a pair of stilts.—Plain Dealer. ROOSEVELT ON LYNCHING. A Strong Protest Against the Rapidly Growing Evil. Mob violence is simply one form of an archy. Men who have been guilty of a crime like rape or murder should be visited with swift and certain punishment. Every effort should be made under the law to expedite the proceedings of justice in such an awful crime. She slightest lack of vigor, either in denunciation of the crime or in bringing the criminal to justice is itself unpardonable. The very existence of the republic depends upon that orderly liberty under the law which is as incompatible with mob violence as with any form of despotism. Whoever, in any part of our country, has ever taken part in lawlessly putting to death a criminal by the dreadful tortures of fire must forever after have the awful spectacle of his own handiwork seared into his brain and soul. He can never again be the same man. JOHN WILSON SAT OF 1853 GIRL CONSIDERED Dr C. S.

Such cathartics are irritating and gripping the stomach inflamed and enfeebled, the constipated condition recurs with greater difficulty of cure and the sufferer constantly growing worse. There is a laxative that moves the bowels without pain or gripping, cleanses the stomach, sharpens the appetite, stimulates the liver, strengthens the nerves, and purifies the blood, while its muscular tonic properties tone up the entire system and keep it healthy. Its remarkable tonic properties reach every organ—the liver, kidneys and stomach, nerve, heart and brain—and removes the cause of debilitated condition. It is the only remedy that does its work gently and painlessly and at the same time acts as a general tonic. This is the only way to secure an absolute and permanent cure. In order that all may test this great curative, a free sample will be mailed to all. Laxakola for Babies.—It is the best and most effective remedy for children, BEST because it is pure and safe being made entirely of harmless ingredients. BEST because it is non-irritating and never grips or causes pain or irritation. BEST because it is sure and never fails. BEST because "Children like it and ask for it." BEST because its tonic properties are so good and so strengthening that it keeps the little ones in fine, hearty condition. It is a dangerous thing to give little babies violent cathartics that rack and rack their little bodies. DON'T DO IT—give them LAXAKOLA. For constipation, coated tongue, simple colds, restlessness, loss of sleep and fevers it is invaluable. A few drops can be given with safety to very young babies, and it will often relieve colds by expelling the wind and gas that cause it. It will aid digestion, relieve restlessness, assist nature and induce sleep. Great relief is experienced when administered to young children suffering from diarrhea, accompanied with white or green evacuations, as LAXAKOLA neutralizes the acidity of the bowels and carries out the cause of the fermentation. "My baby is 4 months old and is teething. He was sick and I tried a good many things, but nothing seemed to relieve him. I had a doctor, who said it was inflammation of the bowels, and that I would never pull him through perhaps if he were in distress. When I saw he was getting worse, I stopped giving him his medicine, asked could he keep it if he was treated with solide very much, and used to scream when he had a touch of it. I did not know what it was to close my eyes day or night. I gave him a few drops of LAXAKOLA and it relieved him. I gave him a few times, and it worked like a charm, and he no jerk, just pretty fair all night. He is a great deal better when I give him LAXAKOLA, and I think if he were to sleep, they would not give anything else to their sick babies." Laxakola for Young Girls on the threshold of womanhood, has been found invaluable. When they become pale and languid, face bloodless, eyes dull, head aching, feet and hands cold, appetite gone or abnormal, and their systems generally run down, they need building up, and their blood needs cleansing. Give them LAXAKOLA; its gentle bowel action to cleanse, and its tonic properties to build up the system, will show immediate and most beneficial results. It acts promptly, surely but gently on the bowels, and while stimulating the liver to increased activity, its tonic properties strengthen the nerves, renew vitality and restore color to the face and life and animation to the whole system. It is the only tonic laxative that strengthens and tones them up. Laxakola for Mothers.—It is particularly valuable and useful to women, especially mothers, as it is a gentle and safe remedy to use during all conditions of health whenever their peculiar and delicate constitutions require a mild and efficient laxative and tonic; while to nursing mothers, worn out with the care of infants and whose systems therefore are particularly susceptible to disease, LAXAKOLA directly appeals. It clears the complexion, brightens the eye, sharpens the appetite, removes muddy and blotched condition of the skin and cures sick headache to a certainty by removing the cause. To women suffering from chronic constipation, head-aches, biliousness, dizziness, sallowness of the skin and dyspepsia, LAXAKOLA will invariably bring relief and a positive and permanent cure. What Mr. Kelp, Rugh, E. Palestine, O., Bov. 125, says about LAXAKOLA. "March 11, 1901. Received your free sample, it has done so much good, send me a 4c, bottle." March 28, "Bottle came safe, did me a lot of good, druggie here don't keep it, so enclosed it 5cbe. please send me quickly another bottle. The last bottle did me so much good I want another at once." April 6th, "Enclosed is for one more bottle LAXAKOLA. It has done much good." Laxakola for Old Folks.-In the Autumn and Winter of Life, when the various organs through long years of action have become more or less sluggish, it becomes necessary to stimulate them by some remedy best adapted to that purpose. So long as the stomach and bowels are doing their work properly and the liver and kidneys are active and strong, your food is assimilated properly, your blood is kept pure and rich, and your nerves are strong. The feeling of nervousness, general weakness and debility means that the whole system is run down and needs a general toning up. That LAXAKOLA DOES IT, has been proved beyond all question. Its gentle warning, soothing action on the bowels, liver and kidneys, stimulates them to increased activity, cleanses the blood, quickens the circulation, and puts the whole system in a condition of health and enables it to ward off disease, while its tonic properties tone up the system and keep it healthy.

Short Talks On Advertising ByCharles Austin Bates. How do you expect your advertising to pay unless you give it proper attention? You wouldn't plant seed in a garden and never look at it again. If you did, the chances are that it would never grow into the fruit-bearing stage of development. I saw a notice the other day of an advertisement which had been run continuously in identically the same form since 1866. That advertisement may have done some good, probably did; but to bring really adequate returns, advertising should be freshened by frequent changes of copy. I have recommended frequent changes to a man, who said: "Yes, but our newspaper charges us extra for composition if we change our ad oftener than once a week"—or once a month, as the case might be. That doesn't alter the case at all. The advertisement should be changed, and, if it costs a little more, it costs a little more, and that's all there is of it. It will pay to pay the "You wouldn't plant seed in the garden and never go near it again." A shrewd advertiser said to me recently: "I like to advertise in papers which charge a good, stiff, extra rate for display and for the insertion of cuts. The fact that they do this prevents a good many people using them, and as a consequence, my ads are very much more prominent, for I always pay the extra price and use the cuts and display." Advertisements should never be prepared in a hurry. There ought to be some particular time set apart in each day, or each week, for the consideration of this question. Do not wait until the last minute, and then them, and as a consequence, my ads are very much more prominent, for I always pay the extra price and use the cuts and display." Advertisements should never be prepared in a hurry. There ought to be some particular time set apart in each day, or each week, for the consideration of this question. Do not wait until the last minute, and then write something hurriedly, running the risk of making mistakes, and with almost the certainty of failing to get a really good announcement. A bad advertisement in a good paper may possibly do It isn't such a hard thing to write good ads. It is mainly a question of taking time enough and giving the matter the requisite amount of thought.

Do not say you haven't time, because this part of the business is just as important as any other. In one sense, it is more important, because without it the business cannot amount to very much.

About five years ago my right ear began to sing, and this kept on getting worse, until I lost my hearing in this ear entirely. I underwent a treatment for catarrh, for three months, without any success, consulted a number of physicians, among others, the most eminent ear specialist of this city, who told me that operation could help me, and even that only temporarily, that the head noises would then cause the patient to be unwell. I then saw your advertisement accidentally in a New York paper, and ordered your treatment. After I had used it only a few days according to your directions, the noises ceased, and to-day, after five weeks, my hearing in the diseased ear has been entirely restored.
