Negroes must make manly contentions for their rights upon the ground of being citizens of the Republic.
Public sentiment demands a "square deal" for everybody until the Negro makes his plea for justice. Then (?)

COMMON sense leads men to make the best use of all circumstances that surround them. Nothing can be accomplished by constant mutterings without effort. Changes of conditions are wrought by the putting of effort along proper channels.
Geeman Thomas J. Akers withdrawal of his enlistment on the Medical Board because he was a nephew from the high plain on "machine" politics. Const Dr. Hill, other than character and business tenors of his home. A career, is thus openly apparent. More hurtful is not representative, of the rights, aids and abuses. Let the American character can not be retarded by suchceedings.
NATIONAL Committeeman Thomas J. Akins has dealt the Negro a severe blow by his withdrawal of his endorsement of Dr. Hill, who had been appointed on the Medical Board of Pension Examiners, at Boonville, Mo., because he was a negro. Mr. Atos by this one act has degenerated from the high plain of an American whitesman to that of a common "machine" politicion. Not an imputation has been brought against Dr. Hill, other than that he is a negro. His professional, moral character and business integrity is vowed for by all classes of citizens of his home. A citizen peer to the most highly cultured and refined, is thus openly outraged by a dangerously prejudiced sentiment. More hurtful is the outrage when it is known that the highest representative, of the party that has ever stood for equal manhood rights, aids and abets such actions by openly repudiating his actions. Let the American people be warned that negro manhood and character can not be stopped from their upward trend, though they may be retarded by such unfair Non-American and anti-republican proceedings.

The world bestows its big prizes, both in money and honors, for but one thing. And that is Initiative. What is Initiative? I'll tell you: It is doing the right thing without being told. But next to doing the thing without being told is to do it when you are told once. That is to say, carry the Message to Garcia: those who can carry a message get high honors, but their pay is not always in proportion. Next, there are those who never do a thing until they are told twice: such get no honors and small pay. Next, there are those who do the right thing only when necessity kicks them from behind' and these get indifference instead of honors, and a pittance for pay. This kind spends most of its time polishing a bench with a hard-luck story. Then, still lower down in the scale than this, we have the fellow who will not do the right thing even when some one goes along to show him how and stays to see that he does it: he is always out of a job, and receives the contempt he deserves, unless he has a rich Pa, in which case Destiny patiently awaits around the corner with a stuffed club. To which class do you belong? ELBERT HUBBARD.

"E" a Very Significant Letter.
"E" is the most unfortunate letter in the English alphabet because it is never in "cash", always in "debt" and never out of "danger". Yet, the aforesaid letter is never in "war" but always in "peace". It is the beginning of "existence", the commencement of "ease" and the end of "trouble". Without it there would be no "water", no "bread", no "meat", no "life", no "gospel" and no "heaven". —Correspondent
VALUE OF NEGRO FARMS.
There were in the U. S. in 1900 746,717 farms operated by Negroes, of which 716,514 were improved by buildings. These farms contained 38,233,933 acres, or 59,741 square miles, an area about equal to that of the state of Georgia or that of New England; 23,362,798 acres, or 61 per cent. of the total area, was

improved for farming purposes.
The total value of property on these farms was $499,943,734, of which $324,244,397, represented the value of land and improvements. $717,903,312 that of buildings, $18,859,263 that of implements and machinery, and $84, 936,265 that of live stock.
The gross value of all products on farms of Negroes in 1899 was $255,751,145.
On this sum, however, $25,843,443 represents products fed to live stock, the value of which reappears and is to that extent duplicated in the reported value of animal products such as meat, milk, butter, eggs and poultry. Subtracting this amount we have a net value of $229,907,702, or 49 per cent. of the total value of farm property in farms cultivated by Negroes. This sum represent the gross farm income.
The total expenditure for labor on farms of Negroes in 1899 was $8,789,792; and the expenditure for fertilizers was $4,614,844

NEWS NOTES
The following paragraphs, citing the educational needs of the Negroes on the rice and cotton plantations of the South, are from the pen of ex-senator, T. T. Allaia to the Chicago Conservator Mr. Allaia was senator for about 20 year dating from 1872. He is at present actively engaged in working for the promotion of peace and good will between the whites and blacks, and contends that the best friends of the negro are the intelligent whites of the communities in whicc the negro is born.
In my five months of looking and examining candidates among our people in the South, I find the Negro in the South land are making dollars where the best of our people, who are laborers, do not make dimes in the best part of the cold North, East and in the West.
Now, as to educational matters for the common, every day laborer I am not well pleased, because that is too poor and to little to call it educational opportunity; nor are the regro churches doing their full duty in that regard, although in some sections of the South they are doing a little.
If our white friends in the North, East and in the West are our friends at heart, they must turn to the primary education of the nego.
Money and teachers for primary schools are everywhere needed, and more so on the large rice, sugar and cotton plantation of states in the South, and negro bishops and missionary workers must not be sent to Africa when 8,500,000 of our peo are awaiting their coming south of the Ohio river.
The business negro; planters and farmers, are everywhere increasing, and as owners of land mules and cattle generally, the negro of the North cannot and do not hope to measure arms with our people in the South,

Put into a cup of vinegar a generous supply of salt and heat until the salt partly dissolves. Apply to the frost-bitten parts as hot as it can be borne. Repeat two or three times until the swelling disappears and relief is experienced. A few drops of carbolic acid in the water in which the feet are bathed will also take the sting from chilblains, though at first the burning sensation may be increased. Do not use the carbolic too strong —Washington Star.
The only place in the United States that guarantees freedom from strife, lockouts and labor warfare is Battle Creek, Mich.
The story? The work people, merchants, lawyers, doctors and other citizens became aroused and indignant at the efforts of the labor unions throughout the country to destroy the business of one of our largest industries—the Postum Cereal Co., Ltd., and at the open threats in the official union papers, that the entire power of the National and State Federations of Labor was being brought to bear to "punish" the industries of Battle Creek, and particularly the Postum Co.
This sprung from the refusal of C.W. Post to obey the "orders" of the unions to take the Postum advertising away from various papers that refused to purchase labor of the labor trust—the unions.
Mr. Post was ordered to join the unions in their conspiracy to "ruin" and "put out of business" these publishers who had worked faithfully for him for years and helped build up his business. They had done no wrong, but had found it inconvenient and against their best judgment to buy labor of the labor trust. It seems a rule of the unions to conspire to ruin any one who does not purchase from them upon their own terms.
An ink maker or paper maker who failed to sell ink or paper would have the same reason to order Post to help ruin these publishers. So the peddler in the street might stone you if you refused to buy his apples; the cabman to run over you if you refused to ride with him; the grocer order the manufacturer to discharge certain people because they did not patronize him, and so on to the ridiculous and villainous limit of all this boycott nonsense, in trying to force people to buy what they do not want.
If a man has labor to sell let him sell it at the best price he can get just as he would sell wheat, but he has no right to even intimate that he will obstruct the business, or attempt its ruin because the owner will not purchase of him.

The unions have become so tyrannous and arrogant with their despotism that a common citizen who has some time to spare and innocently thinks he has a right to put a little paint on his own house finds he must have that paint taken off and put on again by "the union" or all sorts of dire things happen to him, his employer is ordered to discharge him, his grover is boycotted if he furnishes him supplies, his family followed and insulted and his life made more miserable than that of a black slave before the war. If he drives a nail to repair the house or burn the carpenter's "union" hounds him. He takes a pipe wrench to stop a leaking pipe and prevent damage to his property and the plumbers' "union" does things to him. He cannot put a little mortar to a loose brick on his chimney or the bricklayers' plasterers' or hod carriers' "union" is up in arms, and if he carelessly eats a leaf of bread that has no "union" label on it the bakers' "union" proceeds to make life miserable for him.
So the white slave is tied hand and foot, unable to lift a hand to better himself or do the needful things without first obtaining permission from some haughty, ignorant and abusive tyrant of some labor union.
It would all seem rather like a comic opera, if it did not rob people of their freedom; that kind of work will not be permitted long in America.
Some smooth managers have built up the labor trust in the last few years, to bring themselves money and power, and by managing workmen have succeeded in making it possible for them to lay down the law in some cities and force workmen and citizens to "obey" implicitly, stripping them right and left of their liberties.
They have used boycotting, picketing, assaults, dynamiting of property and murder to enforce their orders and rule the people. They have gone far enough to order the President to remove certain citizens from office because the "Unions" weren't pleased.
That means they propose to make the law of the unions replace the law of this government and the union leaders dominate even the chief Executive.
This is a government of and for the people and no organization or trust shall displace it. But the unions try it every now and then, led by desperate men as shown in their defiance of law and support of law breakers.
The "union" record of assaults, crippling of men and even women and children, destruction of property and murder of American citizens during the past 2 years is perhaps 10 times the volume of crime and abuse perpetrated by slave owners during any two years previous to the civil war. We are in a horrible period of lethargy, which permits us to stand idly by while our American citizens are abused, crippled and murdered in dozens and
If we can only come back to nature to together every year, and consider the flowers and the birds, and confess our faults and our mistakes under the silent stars and hear the river murmuring in absolution, we shall die young, even though we live long; and we shall have a treasure of memories which will be like the twin flower, a double blossom on a single stem, and carry with us into the unseen world something which will make it worth while to be immortal.—Henry Van Dyke.
hundreds by an organization or trust, having for its purpose thrusting what it has to sell (labor) upon us whether or not. Suppose an American in a foreign city should be chased by a mob, caught and beaten unconscious, then his mouth pried open and carbolic acid poured down his throat, then his ribs idled in and his face well stamped with iron nailed shoes, murdered because he tried to carn bread for his children. By the Eternal, sir, a fleet of American Men of War would assemble there, clear for action and blow something off the face of the earth if separation were not made for the blood of one of our citizens.
And what answer do we make to the appeals of the hundreds of widows and orphans of those Americans murdered by labor unions? How do we try to protect the thousands of intelligent citizens who, with reason, prefer not to join any labor union and be subject to the tyranny of the heavily paid rulers of the labor trusts?
Upon a firm refusal by Mr. Post to join this criminal conspiracy a general boycott was ordered on Grape-Nuts and Postum all over the country, which set the good red blood of our ancestors in motion, bringing forth the reply that has now passed into history: "We refuse to join any conspiracy of organized labor to ruin publishers, nor will we discharge any of our trusted employees upon the orders of any labor union. If they can make their boycott effective and sink our ship, we will go down with the captain on the bridge and in command."
This set the writers in labor papers crazy and they redoubled their abuse. Finally one of their official organs came out with a large double column denunciation of Battle Creek, calling it "a running sore on the face of Michigan," because it would not become "organized" and pay in dues to their labor leaders. The usual coarse, villainous epithets common to labor union writers were indulged in.
The result was to welw public sentiment in Battle Creek for protection. A citizens' association was started and mass meetings held. Good citizens who happened to be members of local unions in some cases quit the unions entirely, for there is small need of them there.
The working people of Battle Creek are of the highest order of American mechanics. The majority are not union members, for practically all of the manufacturers have for years declined to employ union men because of disturbances about 11 years ago, and the union men now in the city are among the best citizens.
No city in the state of Michigan pays as high average wages as Battle Creek; no city of its size is as prosperous, and no city has so large a proportion of the best grade of mechanics who own their own homes.
So the work people massed together with the other citizens in the organization of the Citizens' Ass'n with the following preamble and constitution:
Whereas, from 1891 to 1894 the strikes instigated by Labor Unions in Battle Creek resulted in the destruction of property and loss of large sums of money in wages that would have been expended here; and,
Whereas, these acts caused serious damage to the city and in a marked way delayed its progress at that time; and,
Whereas, since the year 1894 the citizens have been enabled, by public sentiment, to prevent the recurrence of strikes and Labor Union disturbances which have been prevalent elsewhere; and.
Whereas, the employers of this city have steadfastly refused to place the management of their business under the control of Labor Unions, but have maintained the highest standard of wages paid under like conditions anywhere in the United States, and hereby unanimously declared their intent to continue such policy; and the employees of this city, a large percentage of whom own homes and have families reared and educated under conditions of peace and the well-carned prosperity of steady employment, have steadfastly maintained their right as free American citizens to work without the dictation and the tyranny of Labor Union leaders, the bitter experience of the past offering sufficient reason for a determined stand for freedom; and,
Whereas, the attitude of the citizens on this subject has been the means of preserving peaceful conditions and continuous prosperity in marked contrast to the conditions existing in other cities suffering from the dictation of Trades Unionism; it is therefore, Resolved, that the continuance of peace and prosperity in Battle Creek can be maintained, and the destructive work of outside interference avoided under the combined effort and action of all our people by the formation of a Citizens' Association.
Literary Mexico.
Mexico is credited with being at the head of the Latin-American countries in the matter of letters. Besides possessing the oldest organs of Spanish-American journalism, it is said to have in active existence the first library established in America, which is now at least 300 years old. In Chill, Argentina and Peru there are papers that have been published for 50 years and more. One is the El Comercio of Lima, which has had a career or 60 years of uninterrupted daily issue.
CONSTITUTION
ARTICLE 1.—NAME.
ARTICLE 2.—OBJECTS
First—To insure, so far as possible,
a permanent condition of peace, prosperity and steady employment to the people of Battle Creek.
Second—To energetically assist in maintaining law and order at all times and under all conditions.
Third—To protect its members in their rights to manage their property and to dispose of their labor in a legal, lawful manner without restraint or interference.
Fourth—To insure and permanently maintain fair, just treatment, one with another in all the relations of life.
Fifth—To preserve the existing right of any capable person to obtain employment and sell his labor, without being obliged to join any particular church, secret society, labor union or any other organization, and to support all such persons in their efforts to resist compulsory methods on the part of any organized body whatsoever.
Sixth—To promote among employers a spirit of fairness, friendship and desire for the best interests of their employees, and to promote among workmen the spirit of industry, thrift, faithfulness to their employers and good citizenship.
Seventh—To so amalgamate the public sentiment of all of the best citizens of Battle Creek that a guarantee can be given to the world of a continuance of peaceful conditions, and that under such guarantee and protection manufacturers and capitalists can be induced to locate their business enterprises in Battle Creek.
Then follows articles relating to membership, officers, duties, etc., etc, etc.
This constitution has been signed by the great majority of representative citizens, including our workpeople.
A number of manufacturers from other cities, where they have been suffering all sorts of indignities, inconvenience and losses from the general hell of labor union strikes, picketing, assaults and other interference, proposed to move, providing they could be guaranteed protection.
The subject grew in importance until it has reached a place where absolute protection can be guaranteed by the citizens of Battle Creek on the following broad and evenly balanced terms which guarantees to the workman and to the manufacturer fairness, justice, steady work and regularity of output.
The new-coming manufacturer agrees to maintain the standard rate of wage paid elsewhere for like service, under similar conditions, the rate to be determined from time to time from well authenticated reports from competing cities. The tabulated wage reports issued by the Government Department of Commerce and Labor can also be used to show the standard rate, and it is expected later on that this government bureau will furnish weekly reports of the labor market from different centers, so that the workman when he is ready to sell his labor and the employer when he is ready to buy, may each have reliable information as to the market or ruling price.
The new-coming manufacturer also agrees to maintain the sanitary and hygienic laws and to refrain from any lockouts to reduce wages below the standard; reserving to himself the right to discharge any employee for cause.
The Citizens' Association on its part agrees to furnish, in such numbers as it is possible to obtain, first-class workmen who will contract to sell their labor at the standard price for such period as may be fixed upon, agreeing not to strike, ploket, assault other workmen, destroy property, or do any of the criminal acts common to labor unionism. Each workman reserving to himself the right to quit work for cause, and the Citizens' Association further pledges its members to use its associated power to enforce the contracts between employer and employee and to act enmasse to uphold the law at all times.
The new industries locating in Battle Creek will not start under any sort of labor union domination whatsoever, but will make individual contracts with each employee, those contracts being fair and equitable and guaranteed on both sides.
Thus from the abuses of labor unions and their insane efforts to ruin everyone who does not "obey" has evolved this plan which replaces the old conditions of injustice, lockouts, strikes, violence, loss of money and property, and general industrial warfare; and inaugurates an era of perfect balance and fairness between employer and employee, a steady continuance of industry and consequent prosperity. The entire community pledged by public sentiment and private act to restore to each man his ancient right to "peace, freedom and the pursuit of happiness."
Other cities will be driven to protect their work people, merchants and cili-
New Electric Furnace.
A new electric furnace method has been invented by M. A. Nodon. The electro-negative metal is fused and used as the cathode in an electric furnace with a non-attackable substance as anode and an electrolyte of a fustible, only slightly volatile, halogen compound of the more electro-positive metal. When a current is passed through, the ionization effected produces a combination of the metals, with liberation of the halogen.—Scientific American.
zens as well as their Industries from the blight of strikes, violence and the losses brought on by labor unionism run amuck, by adopting the "Battle Creek plan," but this city offers industrial peace now with cheap coal and good water, first-class railroad facilities and the best grade of fair, capable and peaceable mechanics known. Details given upon inquiry of the "Secy. of the Citizens' Assn."
Identification
The public should remember that there are a few Labor Unions conducted on peaceful lines, and in proportion as they are worthy they have won esteem, for we, as a people, are strongly in sympathy with any right act that has for its purpose better conditions for wage workers. But we do not forget that we seek the good of all and not those alone who belong to some organization, whereas even the law abiding unions show undeniable evidences of tyranny and oppression when they are strong enough, while many of the unions harbor and encourage criminals in their efforts to force a yoke of slavery upon the American people. As a public speaker lately said: "The arrogance of the English King that roused the fiery eloquence of Otis, that inspired the immortal declaration of Jefferson, that left Warren dying on the slopes of Bunker Hill was not more outrageous than the conditions that a closed shop would force upon the community. These men burst into rebellion 'when the king did but touch their pockets.' Imagine if you can their indignant protest had he sought to prohibit or restrict their occupation or determine the conditions under which they should earn their livelihood," and to assault, beat and murder them, blow up their houses and poison their food if they did not submit.
The public should also remember that good true American citizens can be found in the unions and that they deprecate the criminal acts of their fellow members, but they are often in bad company.
Salt only hurts sore spots. So, the honest, lawabiding union man is not hurt when the criminals are denounced, but when you hear a union man "holler" because the facts are made public, he has branded himself as either one of the jawbreakers or a sympathizer, and therefore with the mind of the lawbreaker, and likely to become one when opportunity offers. That is one reason employers decline to hire such men.
A short time ago inquiry came from the union forces to know if Mr. Post would "keep still" if they would call off the boycott on Postum and Grapeo Nuts.
This is the reply: "The labor trust has seen fit to try to ruin our business because we would not join its criminal conspiracy. We are plain American citizens and differ from the labor union plan in that we do not force people to strike, picket, boycott, assault, blow up property or commit murder.
We do not pay thugs $20 to break in the ribs of any man who tries to support his family nor $30 for an eye knocked out.
We try to show our plain, honest regard for sturdy and independent workmen by paying the highest wages in the state.
We have a steady, unvarying respect for the law-abiding peaceable union man and a most earnest desire to see him gain power enough to purge the unions of their criminal practices that have brought down upon them the righteous denunciation of a long-suffering and outraged public, but we will not fawn, truckle, bend the knee, wear the hated collar of white slavery, the union label, nor prostitute our American citizenship under "orders" of any labor trust.
You offer to remove the restriction on our business and with "union" gold choke the throat and still the voice raised in stern denunciation of the despotism which tramples beneath an iron shod heel, the freedom of our brothers.
You would gag us with a silver bar and muffle the appeal to the American people to harken to the cries for bread of the little children whose faithful fathers were beaten to death while striving to earn food for them. Your boycott may perhaps succeed in throwing our people out of work and driving us from business, but you cannot wrench from us that priceless jewel our fathers fought for and which every true son guards with his life. Therefore, speaking for our work people and ourselves the infamous offer is declined." POSTMUM CEREA CO. LTD

Happenings in Missouri.
The University's Growth.
The University's Growth.
A bulletin was issued by the curators of the state university showing the growth of the university for 13 years, from 1890 to 1903, and the disparity between its growth and the increase in its income. On December 31, 1890, 510 students had been enrolled in that session, of whom more than 210 were of preparatory grade. Not so many as 300 could have come in under the present requirements for entrance. They represented 11 states and territories. For the session of 1903-04 the enrollment, including the students for the summer session, was 1,649. The total number in summer and in winter session from June, 1904, to June, 1905 will exceed 1,860. They represent 5 states, territories and foreign countries. In 1890 the annual income from all sources for all departments and for all purposes, amounted to $122,255. A total of $479,835 represents the income for the calendar year 1903.
Aimed at Blind Tigers.
Senator Peck, of Atchison county, introduced in the senate a bill which seeks to prevent the operation of whisky drug stores in the country, or "blind tizers," as they are designated. The bill would require that all drugists or clerks be required to stand an examination by the state board of pharmacy. As the law stands to-day, clerks are permitted to sell goods on prescriptions who are not qualified and who hold no certificates showing they have passed an examination.
Must Cut The Weeds.
Church, chairman of the house committee on roads and highways, reported favorably house bill No. 113, which provides that farmers shall keep their premises, abutting on a highway, clear from weeds to the middle of any such road and that in cases of failure so to do the work shall be done by the road overseer in the district, the costs to be taxed against the property as any other taxes.
Fewer Fire Losses.
State Superintendent of Insurance Yates is compiling the annual statements of the fire insurance companies doing business in this state. He states that an improved showing will be made for 1964. The preceding year the ratio of losses to premiums paid was about 50 per cent., while for the year just closed, for which returns are now coming in, the ratio will be about 35 per cent. or less.
University Wants $1,000,000.
It is understood that the state university people will ask for nearly $1,000,000—the closest approximate it has been possible to secure in advance of the presentation of the actual figures being $87,000. Of this sum, however, some portion of it goes to the Rolla institution, which is a branch of the university.

Traffic Agreement Abrogated.
Joint freight traffic over the Burlington from St. Louis to Mexico and over the Chicago & Alton from Mexico to Kansas City has been discontinued on account of a disagreement supposed to have been caused by the reported control of the "Alton" by the Rock Island. Ten crews in the freight traffic department of the Burlington have been ordered to Hannibal.
To Increase Bank Examiners.
Mr. Speer, of Osage, introduced in the house a bill to increase the number of state bank examiners from four to six.

Elegant Through Sleeper Service St. Louis to St. Augustine.
Beginning January 9, 1905, the Southern Railway—only St. Louis line with its own trains to Jacksonville—put into service fine observation sleeper line from New Orleans to Jacksonville. ONLY ONE NIGHT ON THE ROAD. This sleeper will leave St. Louis every day except Sunday at 10:00 a.m., arrive at Jacksonville the next evening at 9:35 p. m. and arrive at St. Augustine at 10:35 p. m. The trip is directly through the beautiful Blue Grass Region of Kentucky, thence via Canaan, Atlanta and Macon, Ga. At Lexington, Kv., this sleeper is taken on the famous winter train in the World, carrying every variety of perfectly constructed equipment.
Another attractive feature, giving new charms to a Florida trip this season, is that the Southern Railway has arranged variable tour tickets, whereby a passenger may pay the small additional sum of $100 for a ride to Jacksonville one route and return from there an entirely different way; that is, go South via Chattanooga and Atlanta and return via Savannah, Columbia, Asheville and Knoxville, allowing stop-over privileges at different points, including the "Land of the Sky" with its mountain, forest and stream charms. Write to any of our representatives for full information.

TURKEY VERY NOURISHING
Weight for Weight Turkey Meat Said to Contain Superior Nutrient Properties to Beef.
The London Lancet, discussing the relative food values of these staple dishes, turkey and beef, say that, weight for weight, the flesh of turkey is more nourishing than beef. The latter is usually cheaper. The moisture in beef, however, exceeds the moisture in turkey, while the latter has a better percentage of protel, or flesh-forming substance. It seems that lean beef and not too well-fed turkey have about the same amount of fat, but the flesh of poultry has no muscular fibers permeated with fat. Moreover, the fibers of fowl are short and readily yield to the disintegrating action of digestive processes. But the most important difference from a dietic viewpoint is that whereas beef contains a high percentage of extractive matters, turkey hardly has any. The extractives of beef are valuable, not only because they are flavoring agents, but also act, perhaps, as most powerful stimulants to the gastric digestion. They excite the appetite and aid digestion.
So far the balance between turkey and beef is fairly even, inclining, perhaps, toward beef. But the great point in favor of turkey is reserved till the last, the Lancet saying, "according to the facts, a moderate use of stimulants to promote digestion would be more justified in the case of delicately flavored foods, as fowl, turkey and so on, which contain only a small proportion of extractives, than in the case of richly flavored foods, such as beef, duck, and geese. Physiologically, it is quite inadmissible to drink heavy, highly stimulating wines with a juicy beefsteak. On the contrary, with dry meats which contain only a small proportion of appetizing extractives, a glass of wine is acceptable. In the former case it would be adding one stimulant to another, but in the latter the missing quality would be supplied."
THE GREATEST AMERICANS
Five of the Foremost Men of the United States in an All- Round Way.
Of Americans, Washington, Franklin, Jackson and Lincoln were greatest in an all-round way, writes Alfred Henry Lewis, in Success Magazine. They were great in war and great in peace. Washington ever achieved greatness in that most difficult roles, the role of a private citizen. Franklin was great as a thinker and discoverer, great in war craft and statecraft, and great in big and little things. He produces a fire department, a police department, and a postal department; he crosses the Atlantic and discovers the Gulf stream; he flies a kite and tames the lightning; he writes proverbs, poetry and prose; he does more for freedom, and for liberty, than any of those who were with him, or preceded him, or followed him. Jackson was great with the sword; he was greater with the pen when he vetoed a robber bank, and when he struck secession dumb and motionless with a toast. Also, he was great in his defiance and defeat of red tape—that modern Minotaura. Lincoln was doubly great as one who not only matched his hour, but also made it. Speaking of Lincoln's speeches against Douglas, Col. Morrison, himself a Douglas man, said to me:
"I've heard thousands of political speeches and made hundreds. Those speeches of Lincoln against Douglas were the only ones I ever heard that hurt."
Duty Towards Others
Much of the happiness that we enjoy in this world comes from our mutual sympathy as relatives and friends. And yet we are all conscious of experiences so deep, so intensely personal—our nearest and dearest. Every man we meet carries in the unperceived solitude of his bosom a little world of his own and we are just as blind and insensible about his engrossing objects as he is about ours. Did we suffer this fact to have its full weight upon us, it might make us more candid and more considerate of others.—Herald and Presbyter.

GOUNOD'S "AMBER EAR."
Lady Wanted It Played and Was Accommodated, But Under Different Title.
"Play the 'Amber Ear,'" said the waier to the leader of the restaurant orchestra, while the people at near-by tables chuckled, relates the New York Press. "You mean 'The Gondolier,'" corrected the leader, leaning over the edge of the little music balcony. "No," persisted the waier. "I asked her was that it, and she said: 'No.' She wants you to play 'Amber Ear.' "You go back and ask her again," said the leader with a laugh, and he watched the waier make his way across the room. "I asked the lady, and she said she wanted you to play 'Amber Ear.'" he said, with a touch of vexation. "She says you ought to know it if you're a musician." "Wait a minute," the leader said. A moment later he was at the press, the came back smiling. He climbed into the little balcony, and presently there mingled with the fragrance of rarebits and Newburg's strains of Gounod's "Ave Maria."

WOMEN'S NEGLECT
Health Thus Lost Is Restored by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
How many women do you know who are perfectly well and strong? We hear every day the same story over and over again. "I do not feel well; I am so tired all the time!"
Miss Kate McDonald
More than likely you speak the same words yourself, and no doubt you feel far from well. The cause may be easily traced to some derangement of the female organs which manifests itself in depression of spirits, reluctance to go anywhere or do anything, backache, bearing-down pains, flatulency, nervousness, sleeplessness, leucorrhoea.
These symptoms are but warnings that there is danger ahead, and unless heeded a life of suffering or a serious operation is the inevitable result.
The never-failing remedy for all these symptoms is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
Miss Kate McDonald, of Woodbridge, N J. writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:
"I think that a woman naturally dislikes to make her troubles known to the public, but restored health has meant so much to me that I cannot help from telling mine for the sake of other suffering women." She suffered untold agony with a uterine trouble and irregularities, which made me a physical wreck, and no one thought I would recover, by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has entirelyured my painful strength, and I must it么much to tell other suffering women what a splendid medicine it is.
If you are ill, don't hesitate to get a bottle of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound at once, and write to Mrs Pinkham, Lynn, Mass, for special advice - it is free and always helpful.
