Holt read in the paper what was reported, Mr. Holt at once sent for him. Mr. Gans and PROVIDENCE BAPTIST CHURCH NOTES. Good congregations both morning and evening; pastor preached at both services. The clubs are doing noble work for the rally that will take place the fourth Sunday in October. Dr. Cole is preaching a series of sermons from the book of Revenations every Sunday evening. Everybody should hear him. The sermon last Sunday evening was the best we ever heard. Prof. Patterson will enter upon his duty as organist Sunday. This gentleman is well known to the people of St. Louis. He will take up the work where Prof. Freeman left off and carry it on to success. We are informed that Rev. Dr. S. L. Griggs, of Nashville, Tenn., will fill the pubit at Providence Sunday morning, October 21 inst. Dr. Griggs is the author of several books, and he is one of the most brilliant young men in the United States. He will also speak at the Baptist state convention next week. The music and singing was of the highest class. Mr. Samuel Rogers rendered a fine solo at the evening service to a crowded house. He captured everybody. At the close of the evening service, Dr. Cole, in well-chosen remarks, presented Prof. Freeman a fine gold cross on behalf of the Choral Society. The cross was neatly engraved with the initials of Prof. Freeman and the Choral Society. The professor replied by saying many good things for the new church, and he emphasized the fact that he hated very much to part with them. He spoke in the highest terms of Dr. Cole as being a man of the highest type of Christian character, and he predicted that success would attend his efforts.

HT & B NEGRO CLUB MANAGER GETS 99 YEAR SENTENCE When Judge Holder reconvened the circuit court at Belleville October 11, 1906, at 9 o'clock in the morning, the jury in the trial of Thomas Watkins, Colored, president of the "Dollar Bill Club," a St. Louis political organization, for the murder of George Miller, a St. Louis white teamster, at Pittsburg lake, near East St. Louis, May 25 last, returned a verdict of guilty, and fixed Watkins' punishment at 99 years in the penitentiary. It was learned that the jury, which retired Tuesday evening, stood eleven for the death penalty and one for the ninety-nine years' sentence, until Wednesday morning. Witnesses to Killing Discharged. Immediately after the verdict in the Watkins case had been read State's Attorney Tecklenburg entered a noelle prosequi in the cases against Richard Kent, Henry Bethel, James Clark Henry Allen, Morris Sergel and Ed Lenied, under indictment as accessories after the fact. The accused were arrested at the same time that Watkins was placed under arrest, and were witnesses to the killing of Miller. They are all members of the "Dollar Bill Club." The evidence at the Watkins trial convinced Prosecutor Tecklenburg that there was not sufficient evidence on which to convict the men. Kent conducts a saloon at Twenty-second and Chestnut streets, St. Louis, and is said to have furnished considerable of the money expended by the defense in the cases. We will bet dollars to doughnuts that October 10 was the first night's rest had by any of the men who were held for accessories since May 25. REV. COHRON RECEIVED BACK INTO BAPTIST FOLD A surprise was created in Coloreau Baptist church circles the other day by the announcement that Rev, J. L. Cohron, former pastor of Central Baptist church, who was deposed as pastor, and excluded as a member of that congregation, had applied for admission as a member of that congregation, at the 11 o'clock service Sunday morning. Rev. Cohron stated that the rumor was true; that he had applied for readmission, after a private reconciliation with Prof. J. A. Agee, which was afterward acknowledged in public. The congregation extended him a hearty welcome, and a special meeting was called for Tuesday evening, at which time the question will be passed upon officially. The deposing of Rev. Cohron caused factional differences between the Negro Baptists of St. Louis. These are expected to be speedily settled, so that all will be harmony at the meeting of the Baptist convention to be held at Compton Hill church, October 16. At Last Acknowledges His Wrongs Rev. J. L. Cohran, after many years, months, weeks and days of wandering in stray fields and feeding upon husks, has found favor in himself, gone to the mountain and asked forgiveness. Central Baptist church met him and, like the father of the prodigal son, has thrown the mantle of charity about the wandering brother. On last Tuesday, the church met and killed the fatted calf. Now we trust that the Tabernacle Baptist church, which is now holding services in True Reformers' hall, will disband and return home in a body. By this magnanimous spirit Central Baptist church members will be pleased and the Tabernacle members will have the approbation of their own hearts and the sanction of God. St. Louis citizens, Baptist, Methodist, and all denominations, will rejoice in this union of the churches. A Fight Mr. Beasley and Mr. Bradbury got into a wordy combat. First round—I. H. Bradbury knocked Mr. Beasley down, then ran. Mr. Beasley got up, then waited the return of Bradbury that way. He had not waited long when Bradbury made his appearance. Mr. Beasley shot out his right hand and knocked Bradbury down. This ended the tug of war. The ST. LOUIS PALLADIUM Is Recognized As The Leading Afro-American Paper Of The West. CITY NEWS.

Mrs. Marie Tevis is visiting Mrs. Charles Turnley, her sister-in-law. Mrs. Tevis (nee Turnley) is from Chicago, but St. Louis was formerly her home. She was once a teacher in our public schools. Miss Evelyn Gray was entertained at a dinner at her home, 4108 Margreta avenue, Oct. 7, 5 p. m. The evening was passed most delightfully. Those present were Misses R. P. Reynolds, S. Reynolds, Cornelia Hubbard; Messrs. Daniel Whitehead, Edd Willis, Mr. and Mrs. Edison. Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Hayes, of 3956 Finey avenue, tendered to Mrs. Hammonds and her daughter, of Columbia, O., a luncheon from 2 to 5 p. m., Oct. 6. Quite an enjoyable evening was passed. Dr. W. P. Curtis and sister, Mrs. S. Mack, and Mrs. Martin were present. This pleasant event will long be remembered. Mr. and Mrs. Edison, of 4231 San Francisco avenue, gave a grand reception in honor of the brides and grooms, Mr. and Mrs. Steel, Mr. and Mrs. L. Thomas. The reception given was indeed most elegant in every particular. Mrs. Edison was proud to be equal to the occasion. The following were present: Mr. and Mrs. Charles Steel, Mr. and Mrs. Leonard Thomas, Mr. and Mrs. Craven, Mr. and Mrs. Overton, Mr. Edd Willis, Daniel Whitehead, Sam Rogers, Mayes, Alford, Shelby, Alan Johnson, Mrs Wilkinson; Misses Evelyn Gray, R.

Brown, of Nashville, Tenn., who addressed the association at 4 p.m. last Sabbath, was very effective from both a spiritual and financial points of view. Following Rev. Brown's lecture came Rev. Foster, with all the enthusiasm and force that could well be crowded into so little a space, and held the audience spellbound for some time. Last Tuesday nights volunteer congress was a timely and expedient event. Those who stay away from the association on Tuesday evenings miss quite a blessing. It is the place for all young men of whatever state or calling. The musical class took definite shape on last Wednesday evening at 8 oclock. One hour with a qualified musician would be of no small consequence. We are trying to raise $1,000 for the association by the 1st of November. Help us, and we will do you good. More men of all kinds are wanted at the home. The skating rink at 2120 Market street is crowded nightly with the best of our people. All the Jim Crow niggers go to the Jim Crow rink. Mr. A. A. Brooks has at last made the Jim Crow niggers show their hand. These coons are all west of Beaumont street. The Douglass rink should be patronized by our people who like to skate. Let the Jim Crow niggers go west. The Palladium man will soon learn to skate—either at Brooks' or Packard rink—not the Jim Crow rink. THE EAST ST. LOUIS SENTINEL. We see that this little sheet is coming to its rightful position. When men start a paper they ought at least have some stable ideas. The Sentinel has, for the past year, been flying very high, but now it has come to its normal senses. We hope the editor will look more than a year ahead in the future, and not try to blind the people and make them believe they are "just what they are not." Reception of the Wild Rose Club. The W. R. C. was entertained by Mrs. Wm. E. Officer at her residence, 4287 Garfield avenue, Wednesday afternoon. Those present were Mrs. G. A. Buckner, Mrs. W. T. Spencer, Mrs. J. F. Herbert, Mrs. C. S.

OUTING OF THE WILD ROSE CLUB The outing of the Wild Rose club, which consists of a select number of married ladies, took place at Reed's farm, it being their first annual outing, and their husbands being there, seemed to make everything the more pleasant. The club is made up of married ladies, and its membership is limited. The object of the club is to bring forth the duties of a housewife and a training of home relations, and to remember charitable causes. The club is about two years old, and its progress has been grand. Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. C. T. Herbert, Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Buckner, Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Spencer, Mr. and Mrs. C. S. Herbert, Miss Ruth Claxton, Mrs. Z. T. Smith, Mr. and Mrs. G. A. Claxton, Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Shepard, Mrs. M. Brown, Miss Naomi Herbert, Miss Ida Cannon, Mr. James Taylor, Mrs. W. S. Walton, Mrs. M.

Rooms at 409-11-12-13 North Levee. As we chanced to pass the above numbers, we were indeed struck with astonishment as we saw Mr. Wm. Lee, proprietors of these rooms—a club room with all the modern improvements, such as reading room and splendid library, at 409; next, 411, a fine barber shops; No. 412, billiard and pool room; up stairs a large room where clothing is bought and sold, also jewels, diamonds, watches. Really this is almost a department store. No. 413 is a splendid ice cream parlor and restaurant. On the third floor of 409 is a commodious hall, which is rented for all occasions. This is the largest and best to accommodate all occasions. Mr. Lee is a thoroughgoing business man, very accommodating, and when you get acquainted with him you will find one of the most congenial men you could possibly meet. Do not fail to visit his place of business. He buys and sells pianos on the most reasonable terms. Remember the numbers—409-11-13 N. Levee. SPIRITUAL CHRISTIAN UNION.

The Negro has proved his loyalty to the white man in the south by caring for their wives, mothers and daughters in 1861 to 1865. Now let us prove to them that we are not less worthy of their good favor. The Negro makes his place and standing by his acts and utterance. We urge upon the Negro's, north, south, east and west, to snow to the white man of America that we are good citizens, though WE ARE BLACK. The Negro ought to form a committee of five to one hundred of good citizens, and when they know there is bad men and women that is among them they should point them out to the officers of the law and not harbor them. We regret very much of the trouble in Atlanta, Ga., and other places in the south. But to urge our people to fight is very dangerous. Let us make the white man feel friendly toward us. We must be good citizens, and don't be so quick to resent a suposed insult. The Palladium has always said that the man who urges the Negro's to fight is a dangerous man. The two races must and will live in this country, and we urge our people to live in peace with the white man and make him our friend. The Negro orator who will advise our people to use the torch, burn and slay white men and women should be arrested for treason to his race. We are inded sorry to hear of the remarks attributed to Rev. H. S. Parks. We have always considered Rev. H. S. Parks as one of the most level-headed men in the A. M. E. church. We are sorry to hear that he indores the remarks of two men of very small standing among the better class of Negroes. These two men, Niek Childs and W. T. Vernon, are of the same old school, and their utterances are not worth $2\frac{1}{2}c$ among first-class Negroes. Notice—The report of the hospital ball is too late for this issue. Oh, wait for it.

The girl on Pine street has the picture of the elevator boy in a locket. The other girl is much troubled about it. The three or four Negro girls on Lawton avenue, who are out all hours of night, will soon be where Frank Johnson is if they keep this up. A Jim Crow store, a Jim Crow rink and a Jim Crow nigger—the three are inseparable. The Magic Three. There are no Jim Crow street cars in St. Louis, but there are a number of Jim Crow stores. Keep your money and send to New York for your goods. What constitutes a Jim Crow store; a Jim Crow rink? Answer: Why, a Jim Crow nigger who will take all insults from a Jim Crow white man. The Negro that goes to any other skating rink outside of those controlled by Colored men and for themselves, are the Devil's own doll baby and should be at home. We have two skating rinks in St. Louis for the Negro people—Douglass, at 2645 Lawton avenue, and Brooks' rink, at 2120 Market street. Now tell us who is the Jim-Crow Negro who will go elsewhere. The Jim Crow Negro who attends other rinks than the Brooks and Douglass ought to be skinned alive, for they are the outcasts of all respectable Negroes. The class of Jim Crow niggers who attend any other rink than the two conducted by Negro men never wash only when it rains. Oh, they are the lowest Negroes that live. A certain dry goods store has latex opened with everything that men and women want, and our race, the Negro, spends thousands and thousands of dollars in that store for goods; but when they go to the soda fountain or restaurant they will not serve you. Now is the time for the true Negro to quit trading at a store where you can not get a glass of soda or a cup of coffee. Let us see the Jim Crow Negro who will still go to the counters and pay their money for goods where your child can not get anything to eat. The husband who will let his wife spend his money where they will not let her eat or drink ought to cease to give her his money. Items of Interest. The St. Joseph Enterprise is striking hard licks for the republican party. We will keep the state of Missouri in the Republican column. Let us all work to that end. There are many good white Democrats, but I have never seen a good Negro Democrat. The Negro does not have to vote the Democratic ticket now to conduct a saloon. He has been freed from that. A Negro who can say that he is a Democrat from principle is the devil's own doll baby, and the biggest cheat on earth. A Negro who will vote the Democratic ticket should be driven from her presence by his wife, because he is not honest. The trouble in Atlanta, Ga., ought to drive every weak-kneed and so-called Negro Democrat to their home, the Republican party. In this election let the Negro forget everything but the success of the Republican ticket in the coming election, Nov. 6, 1906. * We hope after the 5th of October the different factions of the Republican party will come together and work for the good of the G. O. P. The worst Negro in the world is the one who is always telling the other man that he is out of politics. That is a renegade who formerly was a Democrat. Many white Democrats vote the Democratic ticket because their fathers were Democrats. But I have never seen a Negro whose father was a Democrat. When a Negro attempts to vote a Democratic ticket let him think of Atlanta, Ga. It is reported that all so-called Negro Democrats are coming home. Where is their home? Answer—The Republican party. When Negroes call themselves Democrats they ought to indorse what they do. What do they do? Why, murder, burn and mob Negro men and rape defenseless Negro women, simply because they are black or they are one of Aunt Hager's family. Huozh BISHOP A. GRANT.

As the election day draws near, the Palladium will enter the political field for the success of the republican party. The Palladium will reach in the state any county where our people are, and we hope to thunder forth the true doctrine of the republican party from now till election day in November. We want to get a political editor. C. H. Tandy and others will aid us. We will be heard at all times. At Stolle's hall, Thirteenth and Biddle streets, Monday, Oct. 15th, the joint entertainment of all the lodges and temples in St. Louis, will be in full blast. See bills. This entertainment calls forth every member of the order to come to the front and do their duty, in this every member has the same interest. Ask a master or Princess.

Little Rock, Ark.—Fearing a general race war in the event of the capture of Charles Cullum and Lewis Styles, negroes, who are accused of precipitating disorders Saturday night, in which one man was killed, three wounded and several buildings destroyed by incendiaries, Gov. Davis, at the request of the sheriff, has agreed to call out the militia, to prevent further rioting. H.

At the time Blackburn was lynched, Mayor Faucett and Chief of Police Pratt of Argenta, Sergt. Ivy of the Argenta police department, Deputy Sheriff Al Chicester and Deputy Sneriff Sol Wormser were standing at the corner of Main and Washington avenue, six block away. They knew nothing of what was taking place a few blocks up the street until members of the mob began to shoot. The officers hurried to the scene of the lynching, and when they arrived there Blackburn's dead body, bloody and ghostly, was swinging at the rope's end, his manacled hands in front of him and his head leveled over. The free bridge across this city and Argenta was covered with negroes Sunday night. Fully 800 deserted their homes and came to Little Rock to spend the night. The leaders stated that they were afraid to remain in Argenta after dark for fear of another outbreak. QUIET REIGN AT ARGENTA. Lynched Negro Came to His Death at Hands of Unknown. Argenta, Ark.—Quiet followed the stormy scenes that have been enacted in Argenta, across the Arkansas river from Little Rock. Mayor Faucette has issued an order for everybody, with the exception of officers, to disarm, and the order has been generally followed. An inquest was held by the coroner over the body of H. G. Blackman, the negro who was lynched in Argenta Sunday night, and the jury returned a verdict to the effect that Blackman came to his death at the hands of unknown persons.

One of the most picturesque sights of the Veux Carre of New Orleans is the negro nun. Come upon her where you will, and as often as you may, she is ever a fresh delight. Her demure face, her severe garb, and above all, that snowy bonnet, in striking contrast with the dark face, makes something so vastly different from what we are accustomed to in the womeen of her race. One of the sisterhoods is that of the Holy Family, domiciled in Orleans street, in the gray brick building not a stone's throw from the Blossom Close of the St. Louis Cathedral. This building used to be the Orleans theater. This particular order was founded before the war by three rich, intelligent free colored women. Its work is altogether good. Its first care is that of orphaned children, then of those whose natural guardians are neglectful or cruel. This latter field of labor is a wide one, as the average colored parent punishes her children brutally. Very sensibly these sisters do not pay overmuch attention to book education. The catechism, of course; but after all a little learning in their opinion goes a long way. They strive to give the children a good industrial training, and it is a matter of common report that the Catholic-bred negro is generally the most truthworthy of all domestics. The sisters care for as many children as they can house and feed, and a comical-looking set these children are. In color they range from coal black through all the lighter shades. The most of them have some education, and the mothers superior of the different orders are women of much intelligence and marked administrative ability. Hon. J. D. Miller has left St. Louis.

Hainesworth Sisters HAIR GROWERS. Special Attention Given to Cleaning the Scalp and Shampooing the Hair. Hair Grown on Bald Heads. 2131 MARKET ST. (Up Stairs) Political W. H. HON. THOS. NEIDRINGHAUS. REPUBLICAN TICKET. Judges of the circuit court—George H. Williams, Hugo Muench, George H. Shields and Charles Chaffin Allen. Probate judge—Charles W. Holt-camp.

Assistant prosecuting attorney—Victor H. Falkenkainer. For Judge of Court of Criminal Correction. We take it for granted that Mr. Taylor has the right ring, as he had charge of the Coudrey congressional contest, and for five months devoted himself to ferreting out the crookedness of the Twelfth district, resulting in the seating of Mr. Coudrey in congress. For the past year he has been the central committeeman from the Twenty-second ward. He is also president of the Twenty-second Ward Republican League club. He resides at 3010 Laclede avenue. Candidate for Probate Judge. During the Spanish-American war, Charles W. Holtcamp, nominated for judge of the probate court, served as colonel of the First Missouri volunteers. Since that time he served one term in the house of delegates, from 1899 to 1901, and has always been active in republican politics in the Twenty-eighth ward. Col. Holtcamp was born in Decatur, Ill., and came to St. Louis in 1880. He is a graduate of the St. Louis law school. He resides in the Twenty-eighth ward at 5704 Bartmer avenue. We have known Mr. Holtcamp for many years, and served in the house of delegates as sergeant-at-arms while he was a member of that body. He is worthy of your vote. Louis Ault for License Collector. Louis, Alt, nominated for license collector, is vice-president of the Beacon Paper Co., and resides with a wife and three children at 3439 Shenandoah avenue. Born in St. Louis 41 years ago, he has been active in republican politics ever since he reached manhood. During the administration of William A. Hobbs as recorder of deeds Alt was one of his clerks, and upon the election of Charles F. Wenneker as collector of the revenue he became a clerk in that office. For the past ten years, until a year ago, Mr. Alt has been a member of the city central committee, serving in different capacities on that body. We have known Mr. Louis Alt for a number of years, and he is a true gentleman. All should work and vote for him. Candidate for Prosecuting Attorney. Phillips W. Moss, nominated for the office of prosecuting attorney, was born in St. Louis on November 6, 1874. After graduating from the Divoll grammar and Central high schools, he took a law course in the St. Louis law school (Washington university) and graduated in 1904. His father, Charles L. Moss, has been a republican worker and practicing attorney in St. Louis since 1866. P. W. Moss and his father have a suite of offices in the Roe building under the firm style of Charles L. and Phillips W. Moss. Young Mr. Moss, who is unmarried, was the sergeant of Battery C. First California heavy artillery, during the Spanish-American war. The Palladium presents this gentleman to the public as a true and staunch republican, and let us all work for his election. Candidate for Sheriff. Louis Nolte, who is the nominee for sheriff, resides at 1129 Penrose street, and was born in this city about thirty- five years ago. Mr. Nolte began at the age of 13 with the August Gehner Realty and Investment Co., to learn the real estate business, and stayed with that firm until twelve years ago, when he started in the reality business himself, under the name of Nolte & Willmann, at 2207 North Broadway. He served as congressional committeeman from the Nineteenth ward for six years, and this is the first time he ever ran for any office. Mr. Nolte has been a benedict for about nine years. Mr. Nolte will get the entire vote of the republicans, and his republicanism can not be questioned. Let the Negro rally to his cause. WEDDING BELLS ARE RINGING. The residence of Mrs. M. Brown, of 2208 Randolph street, were thrown open, and many friends were there to witness the marriage of her lovely daughter. Long will this event rest in the memory of those present at the nuptial ceremony of Miss Clarise Brown to Mr. W. B. Hunt, September 20. The bride was dressed in brocade lace made over white silk, be decked with diamonds and flowers. The groom was dressed in a broadcloth suit. Miss Brown entered the large parlor resting upon the arm of her mother, who led her to the altar. Mr. Hunt was led by the brother of Miss Brown. They were both led to the altar to be joined as man and wife. Rev. J. K. Parker officiated in the most solemn manner. After the ceremony a reception was tendered the bridal couple by Mrs. Brown, the mother of the bride. We wish them much happiness and joy through this life. PRESIDENT MYERS. President Myers appeals to the Colored actors of St. Louis to be clean, moral and intelligent in their line of work, and stop being street comedians. He tells them if their work can not bring them more than 50 cents or $1 a day, get something else to do. Don't pened on any one thing. As some of you have families to care for, you can not properly provide on such earnings. THE DUTY OF A NEWSPAPER. The manager of the Palladium has been most severely criticized for the persistence with which he publishes articles, displaying the corruptness of many of our so-called best (?) people. What some of our race desires is the "squashing" of any incident detrimental to its so-called leaders, because of the class to which they belong. The question arises as to the duty of a newspaper. The public gains its knowledge of the world through the columns of its newspapers and it expects truth from them. It is the height of injustice to cater to an individual, because of the class into which he has been fortunate enough to intrude himself. To a race attempting to climb the ladder of public's good opinion, and reach the pinacle of success in being recognized as a race worthy of a chance, the exposure of any person whose morals are not what they ought to be is just as essential as the removal of a rotten apple from a barrel of good ones. We expect more from our enlightened and educated people. We could excuse an immoral act on the part of an ignorant person on the plea of his ignorance. The Palladium is not seeking notoriety through scathing articles, it is simply trying to print the truth without consideration of class or favor. It has been in vogue since 1883, and the manager is too well versed in the laws of journalism to publish an article criticizing any person without proof of its authenticity. He knows whereof he speaks. Next week, the public will hear some more scathing news. A. B. THE LINDEN For Newly Furnished Rooms with all Coveniences. 705, 707, 709 North 14th Street.

FOR AND ABOUT WOMEN The Latest Styles in Coats THREE-QUARTER LENGTHS TO BE IN FAVOR. It is early in the year to speak of winter fashions, but it is certain that very long three-quarter length coats will be first favorites when Tout Paris returns to the gay capital, writes Idalia de Villiers. At the Deauville races and on the planches at Trouville I saw a number of these coats in Irish lace and Venetian gulpure, and the same style will be worn all through the winter. These coats are cut after the fashion of the picturesque garments worn by Louis XVII. They are shaped to the figure, but they do not fit tightly. They have large pockets and turned back cuffs, but they are not so ornate as the coats worn in the time of Louis XIV. On a tall, moderately slender figure a coat of this order is a thing of real beauty. It has a careless grace of its own, and it is delightfully comfortable. One the other hand the short, stout women must avoid this fashion. It will cut her figure in a most unbecoming manner and take away from her inches. Sack coats are still very popular, but when winter comes we shall find their place taken by the semi-tight coats I have just described. With the Louis XVII. coats it is necessary to leave the fronts open and loose, therefore the blouse or bodice underneath must be specially attractive and well made. For morning wear we shall have long, perfectly tight, redingotes—buttoned up in front like a riding habit. With these a severely plain blouse must be worn and an exquisitely neat collar and tie. The redingote is specially beloved of Parisiennes and they always manage to look most attractive in that particular style of costume. Perhaps this is because they are naturally very neat, as regards their hair and their neck arrangements. KEEPS THE PURSE SAFE. Simple Contrivances Does Away with Irritating Losses. If every purse were provided with the device of which we give a sketch, the number of purses lost yearly would be much smaller. It is easily made and sewn on to any handbag or CROSSBODY BAG purse, and renders loss almost impossible. It consists of a loop of cord sewn on to each side of the purse. Over this loop of cord a good sized bead is slipped, and a ring (a small key-ring will answer the purpose), is sewn at the end of the loop so that the bead cannot slip off. The sketch shows this clearly. Through the upper portion of the loop of cord the hand is passed, and then if the bead is raised it will tighten the cord round the wrist, and the purse then is safe from being lost, snatched, or laid down and forgotten. Plaid Petticoats. Attractive workaday petticoats for the women who are too hard on silk ones to subject them to daily trials are made of mohair in pretty Scotch plaid effects. Most of them are rather somber, except for a thread of yellow which may lighten the whole piece. And lots of plaid silk petticoats are being made up now to wear with fall and winter suits, some of them made to match the shirtwalt. Beads. Everything feminine wears beads, and the shops are yet full of dangling strings beseeching buyers. Lovely colorings are shown this year—pale, translucent rose, yellow amber, currant red, mauve and lavender, and the strikingly chic green jade, as well as the exquisite white coral. Novelties to Be the Feature of Season. Unique and Pretty Dress and Toilet Accessories to Delight the Smart Woman. Dainty new things shown in shops will delight smart women and young mothers who go shopping now, for there are so many unique and pretty dress and toilet accessories for both grown-ups and infants. Ribbon corsets are among the novelties this fall, and they are so beautifully made of rows of wide satin that every member of the fair sev who has seen one immediately wants to possess such an article of dress if only to use on special occasions. These corsets are exquisitely made, with each ribbon overlapping the one below and held securely in place by hand embroidered daisies, fleur de lis, a tiny bunch of lily of the valley or a rosebud. At the top there is an edging of narrow baby ribbon fulled on, or a piece of sheer Valenciennes or Cluny lace gathered to make a fitting finish. In white ribbon these corsets are delicate enough for a bride, but for practical use the ones made of gray, light tan or even a delicate shade of light blue or dainty pink will be most serviceable. Figured silk garters will be worn by fashionable women. Not like the narrow plain ones that were formerly used for hard wear but artistic kinds made of pretty colored silks gathered and smocked so that they are decidedly decorative. Instead of being about an inch wide, as the styles of a year ago, these new ones are at least three inches in width, with an edging of narrow baby ribbon or of Valenciennes lace. In black with yellow rosebuds or in white with purple orchids these silk garters are stunning when gathered, pleated or smocked in the latest fashion. To be in keeping with the tailored waist to be worn this coming season, the neckwear on display is more severe than it has been for several years, and the modish collars are patterned like the men's, except that they are prettily decorated with hand-embroidered scroll designs, or dainty floral devices, either natural or conventional. In sheer linen these collars—turnovers about an inch and a quarter high—are attractive and will be exceedingly becoming to women with long thin necks, as they are to be worn close to the throat. With these collars a tie of some description is essential for a finish, and as lingerie bowknots or short four-in-hands are the most convenient to tie, they will be used exclusively. If dainty made of hand-woven lace, or a combination of handchiefchief linen and sheer Valenciennes, these bowknots or the larger ties are effective when properly arranged on the collar.—N. Y.

These garments, made on the same lines as those worn by grown-ups, will be most serviceable for use before it is time to put on heavy winter wraps. The sweaters are made with simple stitches in white wool, with a narrow border of pink or blue around the cuffs and neck, or in light blue or delicate pink with white borders. Some are made vest-like, cut quite low at the neck with the edges bound with silk, while others have the regulation turtle neck such as athletes wear. These go on over the head, and as they fit tight to the body need no button fastenings. In strong contrast to these outdoor garments are the beribboned frocks that little ones will wear indoors this fall. These dresses, made of eyelet embroidery, are decidedly elaborate being trimmed with wide satin ribbon in blue, pink or white. On either side of the waist in front and back there are two broad pieces of ribbon, extending from the neck to the waist. These join a ribbon belt that matches and ties in front and back with bows having four or five loops. A Home Desk. In the home the busy housemother needs a business desk without going to the expense of a "roll-top." A settle table can be turned into a desk, using the seat part for the keeping of larger account books and extras. On top may be placed file cases, made by a handy brother, either in the shape of two high boxes or as two shelves the length of the table, to be set upon it at the back, not nailed to it, in case it be desirable to move it. Paint it with a dark green or a dull black paint, and you have a neat piece of furniture at small cost, which really looks quite gay when good desk ornaments are placed on it—ink well, pen tray, blotting pad, stamp box, postal card and telegraph casea. Do you believe in progress? Do you believe that all the wonderful achievements of the nineteenth century—the railroad, the telegraph, the telephone, electric light, kerosene, sewing machine, agricultural machinery, steamships, trolley cars, etc. have made life easier and better worth living? I do. I believe that a man who lives 40 years under modern conditions has experienced more life and better life than Methusalem, though he had lived 20 centuries of his time. The triumphs of the nineteenth century were triumphs of human service—the placing of knowledge and the fruits of knowledge within the reach of the common man. Every man's life is better, happier, more secure because of them. We live more comfortable, more sociable lives in better and more comfortable houses because of them. Even the hopeless dweller in the worst city slums is more comfortable in his physical conditions than the middle-class citizen of the days of George Washington. In little things as in great, comfort and convenience have been the legacy of the "Century of Improvement." Paint, in a certain sense, is a minor matter, yet it gives beauty, healthfulness and durability to our dwellings. Fifty years ago painting was a serious proposition, a luxury for the owners of stately mansions who could afford the expense of frequent renewals. Today ready mixed paint is so cheap, so good, and so universal that no house owner has an excuse for not keeping his property well painted. A small thing, indeed; yet several hundred large factories, employing thousands of chemists and skilled workmen, are running every day in the year to keep our houses fresh, clean and wholesome. A small thing, yet a can of good ready mixed paint, such as one may buy from any reputable dealer, embodies the study of generations of skilled chemists, the toil of a thousand workmen in mill, laboratory and factory, and the product of a long series of special machinery invented and designed just to make that can of paint and to furnish us an infinite variety of tints, colors and shades. It was a wonderful century, that nineteenth of our era, and not the least of its wonderful gifts was that same commonplace can of paint. COAT OF PAINT SAVED BANK. Clever Device Stopped Run That Would Have Been Disastrous. Runs on banks, as all the world knows, are often stopped or restricted in the oddest ways. A rich bank knew that a run was to set in on a certain Monday morning—for it had been robbed of some postage stamps on Saturday night, and the robbery had been exaggerated in the newspaper reports—and if this run was not kept within reasonable limits the bank would have to close its doors. It had plenty of money, but not plenty of cash. It needed 24 hours' time. Before sunrise on Monday morning a man put a fresh coat of paint on the front doors of the bank, on the wall panels, and on the counters. The result was that the people who made the run on Monday made rather a walk of it. They wanted their money, but they rushed no one. On the contrary, they came on with caution and deliberation. So careful were they lest they get paint on their clothes that it took longer to pay off one of them than it would have taken ordinarily to pay five. This is one of many odd tricks whereby, in a run, a bank has saved itself from wreck. Ghastly Foreign Pun. Mrs. Carrie Chapman Catt, the noted American clubwoman, has been received abroad by royalty, and some of the foreign papers have the temerity to declare that she has a proverbial right to look at a king. NERVOUS DEBILITY A Scranton Woman Tells How Dr. Williams' Pink Pills Made Her Well and Strong. Nervous debility is the common name for what the doctors term neurasthenia. It is characterized by mental depression, fits of the "blues," or melancholy, loss of energy and spirits. The patient's eyes become dull, the pink fades from the cheeks, the memory becomes defective so that it is difficult to recall dates and names at will. Some of these symptoms only may be present or all of them. The remedy lies in toning up the nervous system and there is no medicine better adapted for this purpose than Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Mrs. Jane J. Davies, of No. 314 Warren street, Scranton, Pa., says: "Some years ago I became greatly reduced in health and strength and my nervous system became so debilitated that I felt wretched. I could not rest or sleep well at night and woke up as weary and languid in the morning as I was when I went to bed. My head ached in the morning and often there was a pain in my right side which was worse when I sat down. My nerves were on edge all the time, every little noise bothered me and I was generally miserable. Then I decided to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, as my husband had taken them with good results, and they did wonders for me. Now I have no more pain in my side, no more headaches, I sleep well and feel strong and able to do my work." Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cured Mrs. Davies and they can do just as much for other weak, pale, ailing men or women who are slipping into a hopeless decline. They strike straight at the root of all common diseases caused by poor and impoverished blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by all druggists, or will be sent postpaid, on receipt or proof, 50 cents per box, six dollars or $60.00 for Williams' Medicine Ou, Schaplectady, N.Y. THE CHURCH AT WORK CATHEDRAL AT SAN FRANCISCO. Crocker Site Given to the Episcopal Church for This Purpose. In common with all others, the Episcopal church suffered severely in the San Francisco earthquake and fire, and yet, as in other similar cases, the disaster is not unlikely to prove a blessing. Parish churches were not well located before the fire, and anything like a cathedral was far from the most ambitious thoughts of the California bishop. Because so many churches were wiped out, a redistricting has been made possible, in order that their fields may no longer overlap. And the Episcopal church on the coast is to have a cathedral in San Francisco that will be one of the best located in the world. The Croker mansion, says the New York World, which was rented for a whole month by J. Pierpont Morgan while the Episcopal general convention was in session at San Francisco some years ago, shared the fate of so many other notable buildings when the fire completed the destruction begun by the earthquake. Now the Croker family has presented the site to the church to be used as a cathedral close for the diocese of California. The site is on the very top of Nob Hill, a large block in extent, and any building erected upon it can be seen from every part of the bay and from the entire city. A cathedral foundation in such a place, even if it has to be a modest one for some years, will give the Episcopal church a great advantage in the new-built city. To begin the erection of a structure of some kind, it is now proposed to merge Grace parish into the cathedral foundation, and giving the old name "Grace" to the cathedral. Grace church stood at California and Stockton streets, on the very brink of one of the numerous precipices which made California one of the most remarkable streets in the world. It was wrecked and burned, and now its property, with insurance money, is to go into the new foundation. NORTHFIELD CONFERENCE. Dr. G. Campbell Morgan Seeking to Es tablish a Christian Training School. Dr. Campbell Morgan has been trying with no small success, to give English Christians an object lesson in what is meant by the famous Northfield convention, says the London correspondent of the Record of Christian Work. Mundesley-on-Sea is an unpretentious watering place on the east coast of England, where Dr. Morgan has a summer residence of his own. There the convention met. The meeting place was a large tent. There were two morning sessions, an earlier and a later one. The earlier morning sessions were devoted to Dr. Morgan's course of lectures on the Book of Genesis, of which I have seen nothing but the highest praise. At the later morning session, special subjects were dealt with by men peculiarly at home in them, and the addresses were followed by a time of questions and answers. The afternoons were given to relaxation and social intercourse, and the days as they went by were closed with evening sessions at which some front-rank man preached a sermon or gave an address. The attendance at the convention throughout was exceedingly encouraging, and the experiment is regarded as having abundantly justified itself. It will be repeated next year. Record of Missionary in West. Rev. Solomon Baker is a Choctaw preacher in Indian territory. He traveled 640 miles on horseback in three months, and preached 55 sermons and held 48 prayer meetings. He started to attend a Bible institute 125 miles away, but his pony gave out when he had gone about 75 miles. So anxious was he to attend the institute that he walked over the mountains, sleeping under the blue sky on the way. That is a sample of home-missionary work among the Indians. An Ancient Mission One of the most ancient charities, in connection with the church is that of St. Swithin, Worcester. In 1668 William Swift decreed "that 12 loaves of bread be given by the church wardens every sabbath morning, and so to continue forever, unto 12 aged poor people, such in his lifetime as he should appoint, and after his death according to the discretion of the church wardens and their successors." Great Work of Gospel at Rotuma. Rotuma is an island 300 miles from Fiji, which was entered in 1841. It is now entirely Christianized, and the foreign missionaries have withdrawn, leaving self-supporting churches in the hands of native pastors. They contribute to foreign missions ten times as much per member as do the Christians in America. Over Half Century in Choir George A. Gleason, of Colebrook, N.

WHO SHE WAS SKETCH OF THE LIFE OF LYDIA E. PINKHAM And a True Story of How the Vegetable Compound Had Its Birth and How the "Panic of '73" Caused it to be Offered for Public Sale in Drug Stores. This remarkable woman, whose maiden name was Estes, was born in Lynn, Mass., February 9th, 1819, coming from a good old Quaker family. For some years she taught school, and became known as a woman of an alert restore the family fortune. They argued that the medicine which was so good for their woman friends and neighbors was equally good for the women of the whole world. The Pinkhams had no money and Yours for Health Lydia E. Pinkham and investigating mind, an earnest seeker after knowledge, and above all, possessed of a wonderfully sympa- thetic nature. In 1843 she married Isaac Pinkham, a builder and real estate operator, and their early married life was marked by prosperity and happiness. They had four children, three sons and a daughter. In those good old fashioned days it was common for mothers to make their own home medicines from roots and herbs, nature's own remedies—calling in a physician only in specially urgent cases. By tradition and experience many of them gained a wonderful knowledge of the curative properties of the various roots and herbs. Mrs. Pinkham took a great interest in the study of roots and herbs, their characteristics and power over disease. She maintained that just as nature so boundfully provides in the harvest-fields and orchards vegetable foods of all kinds; so, if we but take the pains to find them, in the roots and herbs of the field there are remedies expressly designed to cure the various ills and weaknesses of the body, and it was her pleasure to search these out, and prepare simple and effective medicines for her own family and friends. Chief of these was a rare combination of the choiceest medicinal roots and herbs found best adapted for the cure of the ills and weaknesses peculiar to the female sex, and Lyda E.Pinkham's, friends and neighbors learned that her compound relieved and cured and it became quite popular among them. All this so far was done freely, without money and without price, as a labor of love. But in 1873 the financial crisis struck Lynn. Its length and severity were too much for the large real estate interests of the Pinkham family, as this class of business suffered most from fearful depression, so when the Centennial year dawned it found their property swept away. Some other source of income had to be found. At this point Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was made known to the world. The three sons and the daughter, with their mother, combined forces to NO MORE MUSTARD P THE SCIENTIFIC AND MODERN CAPIS VASE EXTRACT OF THE CAV A OUICK, SURE, SAFE AND ALWAYS 15c—IN COLLAPSIBLE TUBES—AT A BY MAIL ON RECEIPT OF 15c IN TILL THE PAIN COMES A substitute for and superior to mistlebrer the most delicate skin.

The queen of mountaineers, Mrs. Bullock Workman, has added one more thrilling experience to her record of adventure by accompanying her husband on his great climb of 23,000 feet in Kashmir. Mrs. Workman has several times climbed over 21,000 feet—higher than any other woman in the world. The rarefied air at these great heights has considerable effect on her.

But, curiously enough, the headache leaves her after 21,000 feet. restore the family fortune. They argued that the medicine which was so good for their woman friends and neighbors was equally good for the women of the whole world. The Pinkhams had no money, and little credit. Their first laboratory was the kitchen, where roots and herbs were steeped on the stove, gradually filling a gross of bottles. Then came the question of selling it, for always before they had given it away freely. They hired a job printer to run off some pamphlets setting forth the merits of the medicine, now called Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, and these were distributed by the Pinkham sons in Boston, New York, and Brooklyn. The wonderful curative properties of the medicine were, to a great extent, self-advertising, for whoever used it recommended it to others, and the demand gradually increased. In 1877, by combined efforts the family had saved enough money to commence newspaper advertising and from that time the growth and success of the enterprise were assured, until today Lydia E. Pinkham and her Vegetable Compound have become household words everywhere, and many tons of roots and herbs are used annually in its manufacture. Lydia E. Pinkham herself did not live to see the great success of this work. She passed to her reward years ago, but not till she had provided means for continuing her work as effectively as she could have done it herself. During her long and eventful experience she was ever methodical in her work and she was always careful to preserve a record of every case that came to her attention. The case of every sick woman who applied to her for advice—and there were thousands—received careful study, and the details, including symptoms, treatment and results were recorded for future reference, and to-day these records, together with hundreds of thousands made since, are available to sick women the world over, and represent a vast collaboration of information regarding the treatment of woman's ills, which for authenticity and accuracy can hardly be equaled in any library in the world. With Lydia E. Pinkham worked her daughter-in-law, the present Mrs. Pinkham. She was carefully instructed in all her hard-won knowledge, and for years she assisted her in her vast correspondence. To her hands naturally fell the direction of the work when its originator passed away. For nearly twenty-five years she has continued it, and nothing in the work shows when the first Lydia E. Pinkham dropped her pen, and the present Mrs. Pinkham, now the mother of a large family, took it up. With woman assistants, some as capable as herself, the present Mrs. Pinkham continues this great work, and probably from the office of no other person have so many women been advised how to regain health. Sick women, this advice is "Yours for Health" freely given if you only write to ask for it. Such is the history of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound; made from simple roots and herbs; the one great medicine for women's ailments, and the fitting monument to the noble woman whose name it bears. LASTERS TO BLISTER.

THE TEN VIRGINS Sunday School Lesson for Oct. 14, 1906 Specially Prepared for This Paper. LESSON TEXT.—Matt. 25:1-13. Memory verses, 1 and 2. GOLDEN TEXT.—"Watch therefore; for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the son of man cometh."—Matt. SCRIPTURE ADMONITION ON WATCHING.-Deut. 4:9; Prov. 4:23-26; Matt. 16:13; Eph. 6:13, 18; 1 Thes. 5:4, 6; Brev. 2, 3; 16:15. Comment and Suggestive Thought. V. 1. "Then." At the time which has just been spoken of (See preceding chapter); that is, at the Lord's coming. "The kingdom of heaven." The members of Christ's kingdom on earth will resemble ten virgins whose story is about to be told. "Ten virgins." Girl friends of the bride or bridegroom who would join in the wedding procession. The church is often called the bride of Christ (Eph. 5:23-27; Rev. 21:2). But here the attendant virgins are taken to typify the church. "Took their lamps." The common Jewish lamp was a saucer-shaped vessel containing oil, upon which the wick floated. The lamp represents whatever in the Christian life is outward and observable by others. This includes Christian profession, attendance upon religious services, the performance of deeds of charity, and the like. "Went forth to meet the bridegroom." This typifies the going forth to meet Christ Jesus, the now unseen Bridegroom. V. 2. "Five wise . . . five foolish." The Revisers reverse the order in which these are named. The wisdom referred to is prudent forethought. Five were prepared for emergencies; the other five were ready only in case everything should move along with the expedition they hoped for. V. 3. Jesus now goes on to explain why he calls one class of virgins foolish. It was because "they took no oil with them." Their lamps were full when they set out, but they carried no reserve supply of oil. V. 4. "The wise took oil." They knew it was uncertain what hour the bridegroom might come, hence they would prepare for emergencies. The oil the Christian needs is obtained only by heart-union with the source of all love and all grace. V. 5. "The bridegroom tarried." He came from a distance and met various hindrances on the way. By this Jesus intimates to his disciples that there may be delay in his coming to take the whole church to himself. It is also true that there are times when to each of us Jesus seems to delay leading us forward in ways we had hoped he would take, or in giving us the sweet experiences which others tell of enjoying. V. 6. "At midnight." The coming was long delayed; it occurred just when men are wont to fall into a deep sleep, and when thick darkness envelops the land. Scripture tells us that Jesus will come "as a thief in the night," and "at such an hour as ye think not." "Behold, the bridegroom," etc. Heralds announced his approach. Though Jesus seems to delay long, he will surely come at just the best time. V. 7. "All arose and trimmed their lamps." By daily communion with Jesus, praying to him, loving him, listening for his voice, we should keep our lamps trimmed and burning. V. 8. "Give us of your oil, for our lamps are going out." The foolish virgins sought help from their sisters. For lack of oil, their lights were flickering and about to go out. V. 9. "Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you." It was not that the wise virgins were selfish or unkind, but they felt how deeply the bridegroom would be dishonored if all the lights should go out. While there are many things which each Christian can and will do for others, there are some things which he cannot do. He cannot live for another. "Go, buy." The wise knew nothing better to suggest for the foolish to do. V. 10. "While they went to buy." The time was too short for them to accomplish their purpose. One reason that our loving Lord comes to us so often and in such varied ways is that he may awaken us to replenish our lamps before death shall come upon us. "Ready, went in . . . to the marriage." They went into the house of the bridegroom, where the wedding festivities were to be held. For each of us who is ready to meet Jesus there will be entrance to, and participation in, the joys of the "marriage supper of the Lamb," "The door was shut." Surely this teaches that a time will come when it will be too late to gain entrance to heaven. Vs. 11, 12. "Lord, Lord, open unto us." The bridegroom himself is evidently the one addressed in the parable. V. 13. "Watch therefore." Here Jesus gives the application of the parable which, like the preceding one (24:42), is to urge us to be watchful and ready for his coming. Practical Points. V. 1. Hearts should always be going forth to meet our coming Lord.—Heb. 9:28. V. 2. They only are wise who provide for the future as well as for the present.—1 John 2:17. V. 3. A mere profession of religion without true love to God in the heart will not save us.—Luke 8:13. V. 7. We should persistently try to overcome our faults and conquer our besetting sins.—2 Pet. 3:14. V. 12. None can open for us the door that our own hand has shut when we made choice of evil.—Matt. 7:21. TIRED BACKS. The kidneys have a great work to do in keeping the blood pure.

I had pain in the back and head, and almost continuous in the loins and felt weary all the time.

Expert with Bow and Arrow. Nero Perry an old Chickasaw freedman, who lives on Caddo creek, in the Chickasaw nation, supports himself by hunting game with a bow and arrow. Though 76 years old, he can send an arrow into a squirrel in the tallest tree. Perry went to the Chickasaw country in 1838 from Mississippi with Jim McLish, his old master. They settled on the banks of the Caddo creek, where they built the first house erected in the Chickasaw nation. Here they lived until 1861, when McLish died, then the old place reverted to Perry, and there he still lives. AT THE SUMMER HOTEL. Experience of Winston Churchill Familiar to Many. Winston Churchill in an address that he made in Concord recently praised the New Hampshire farmer. "Ours," he said, "is a state fitted above all others for a summer resort. New Hampshire, with its superb climate, its mountains, its lakes and forests, will in a generation or two be one great pleasure ground—a vast park, dotted with beautiful villas, to which will come each summer families from all parts of America. "In anticipation of this many farmers are learning to conduct hotels. They are building cottages for summer visitors. Some of them, too, are taking boarders. "And I am glad to say that the New Hampshire farmer is in a position to take boarders, because, unlike the farmers in other states that I could name, he does not send all his good things to the city. I once boarded at a fine big farm, but the fare was wretched—canned vegetables, condensed milk and so on. "By Jove,' I said one morning at breakfast, as I pushed my egg cup from me, these eggs are really not as fresh as those I get in New York.' My farmer host snorted. "That's rank prejudice on your part, as Churchill,' he said. 'It's from New York that all our eggs come.'" LOOSE TEETH Made Sound by Eating Grape-Nuts. Proper food nourishes every part of the body, because Nature selects the different materials from the food we eat, to build bone, nerve, brain, muscle, teeth, etc. All we need is to eat the right kind of food slowly, chewing it well—our digestive organs take it up into the blood and the blood carries it all through the body, to every little nook and corner. If some one would ask you, "Is Grape-Nuts good for loose teeth?" you'd probably say, "No, I don't see how it could be." But a woman in Ontario writes: "For the past two years I have used Grape-Nuts Food with most excellent results. It seems to take the place of medicine in many ways, builds up the nerves and restores the health generally. "A little Grape-Nuts taken before retiring soothes my nerves and gives sound sleep." (Because it relieve irritability of the stomach nerves, being a predigested food.) "Before I used Grape-Nuts my teeth were loose in the gums. They were so bad I was afraid they would some day all fall out. Since I have used Grape-Nuts I have not been bothered any more with loose teeth.

Few people who have not been over the ground have any conception of the wonderful development of Alaskan interests and trade. For instance, the commercial receipts from the Alaskan cable and telegraph lines for the month of July amounted to $24,600. The rapid increase in the demands upon the system will be met by the government by duplexing the cable. The cable ship Burnside, which is to install the duplexing apparatus at the Alaskan end of the cable, will carry about 200 miles of new cable for the extension of the service to Ketchikan. This extension will be effected by tapping the lines from Sitka to Juneau at Cape Fanshaw. From that point a branch line will be extended down the Wrangel, then to Hadley on Prince of Wales island, and then to Ketchikan, which is only 60 miles from Fort Simpson, the English town which is to be the terminus of the Grand Trunk and Pacific railroads. It is believed that this additional 200 miles of cable will largely increase the cable receipts, as it taps a country rich in mines, fishery and canning industries and greatly in need of daily communication with the United States. It is expected that this new line will be completed by November 1. -Pilgrim. $100 Reward, $100. The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is cataracts. The disease is known to the medical fraternity Cataract being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Cataract Cure is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous membranes of the eye, and provides a foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting mature in doing so. The proprietors have One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. One Hundred Dollars for CO., Toledo, O. Sold by all Druglights, 75c.

Even the Zulu can now hear his own native songs and war dances from records made by a London company, who have sold more than 20 machines to swarthy warrior chiefs in South Africa. Folk-songs of the Pygmies were recently procured, and a machine has been dispatched to Lapland for the purpose, if possible, of procuring Eskimo folk-songs. Sheer white goods, in fact, any fine wash goods when new, owe much of their attractiveness to the way they are laundered, this being done in a manner to enhance their textile beauty. Home laundering would be equally satisfactory if proper attention was given to starching, the first essential being good Starch, which has sufficient strength to stiffen, without thickening the goods. Try Defiance Starch and you will be pleasantly surprised at the improved appearance of your work. Uruguay's Financial Condition. Uruguay reduced her national debt by $1,570,450 during 1905. The total debt on January 1, 1906, was $121,455,747, of which about 80 per cent. was external. Uruguay is a prosperous country, and in her prosperity is a good customer of the United States. Exports of merchandise from this country to Uruguay for the nine months ending March 31, 1906, amounted to $2,172,276, against $1,200,542 in the same period of the previous year. The extraordinary popularity of fine white goods this summer makes the choice of Starch a matter of great importance. Defiance Starch, being free from all injurious chemicals, is the only one which is safe to use on fine fabrics. Its great strength as a stiffener makes half the usual quantity of Starch necessary, with the result of perfect finish, equal to that when the goods were new. Remarkable Double Wedding. A remarkable double wedding has been celebrated in a Viennese church. A manufacturer named Muller married a widow, while at the same time his son married the widow's daughter. Thus the father becomes the father-in-law of his own son, and the mother also the mother-in-law of her daughter. Defiance Starch is the latest invention in that line and an improvement on all other makes; it is more economical, does better work, takes less time. Get it from any grocer. The most important events in the average man's career are his birth and death. For flexibility, smooth finish, stiffness and durability, Defiance Starch has no equal—10c for 16 oz.

With Irritating Skin Humor—Hain Began to Fall Out—Wonderful Result from Cuticura Remedies. "About the latter part of July my whole body began to itch. I did not take much notice of it at first, but it began to get worse all the time, and then I began to get uneasy and tried all kinds of baths and other remedies that were recommended for skin humors; but I became worse all the time. My hair began to fall out and my scalp itched all the time. Especially at night, just as soon as I would get in bed and get warm, my whole body would begin to itch and my finger nails would keep it irritated, and it was not long before I could not rest night or day. A friend asked me to try the Cuticura Remedies, and I did, and the first application helped me wonderfully. For about four weeks I would take a hot bath every night and then apply the Cuticura Ointment to my whole body; and I kept getting better, and by the time I used four boxes of Cuticura I was entirely cured, and my hair stopped falling out. D. E. Blankenship, 319 N. Del. St., Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 27, 1905." PENNIES FOR A COLLEGE. One Hundred Thousand Workers Each Give a Penny to Ruskin College. The British trade unions had not in their origin any direct concern with education, says the Fortnightly Review. But it is a fact of no ordinary significance that some of the leading unions should be taking very great interest in the higher education of the workman. For the last three years some 100,000 workingmen, members of the Amalgamated Society of Engineers, have made three levies of one penny each to help on the work of Ruskin college at Oxford. This levy produces over £300 a year, and by means of it six engineers are maintained for a year's course cf study at the college. Smaller but substantial sums have been contributed to the same institution by the London Society of Compositors, by the Lanarkshire Miners' County Union, by the Amalgamated Association of Beamers, Twisters and Drawers, by the Derbyshire miners and the Durham miners, while a large number of other societies appear among the donors and subscribers. Washing Windows The method of washing windows has changed very much of late. Have a pair of lukewarm suds made from Ivory Soap. Dip a soft cloth in the water; squeeze aloe juice into the socks.

What He Most Wished For. John Fiske, the American historian, was an ardent lover of music and himself no mean musician. Furthermore, he was extremely corpulent and felt the hot weather painfully. He was once delivering a course of lectures at a summer school in a small city of the middle west. The heat was terrific and adjoining the house where the lecturer stayed was a church where an ill-matched but zealous "quartet" practiced and performed during all hours of the torrid afternoons and evenings. One evening, seeing the famous man sit for a time unoccupied and apparently oppressed by this combined affliction, the young daughter of his hostess attempted to divert him by offering him a new novel, then just becoming popular. "I think The Choir Invisible' is perfectly splendid, Mr. Fiske," said she. "Would'n you like to read it?" The historian put the book aside. "My dear young lady," said he, "the only choir in the world in which I could feel any interest at this moment would be the choir inaudible."
