A number of ladies and gentlemen met on the above named date at Mrs. Ella May's, No. 2219A Market street, and organized a club to be known as the "Voice Auxiliary" for the purpose of raising money to support the publication of the Voice, edited in Chicago by J. Max Barber. The following officers were elected: President, Miss Minnie T. Shores; vice-president, Floyd Ross, chief of St. Louis Division of True Reformers; treasurer, Mrs.
MECHANICS' EXCHANGE
AND TRADE SCHOOL
George A. E. Barnes, Promulgator.
The workingmen's building, located at 1329 Morgan street, will be beneficial to the individual and also to the public at large. It will connect you with all branches of labor. You may call and see them personally or get telephone connection. Mr. Barnes says there will be no more such excuses as: "I could not find you; 'didn't know there was such a place in the city,' etc. You can locate any trade from the excavation to the tallest pinnacle. We are here to stay. Following are some progressive business men: Mr. M. Wright, who at present has one of the finest churches in the city under construction, at Adams street and Leffingwell avenue. Mr. McDonald has a car under construction. Mr. Hawkins is erecting a building at Twenteth and Biddle streets. Mr. Twenteth and Biddle the erection of a four-family flat on Blaine avenue. G. W. Sanford is also mentioned and noted for his work. Mr. McCree is staff and leading plasterer for one of the leading builders in the city, and is prepared to do outside work. Mr. Jones, practical builder, house moving and raising. Mr. Harvey is a general repairer. Messrs. Kirk, Walker, Sydnor and Perkins are well-known scenery and sign painters. Mr. Jerritt, excavator. Messrs. Miller and Yamsey are also well known and will furnish all branches of labor. Those who read the Palladium, please tell others who do not know about this new establishment, so they can be enrolled. The building consists of four stories. The main floor consists of a barber shop, fruit stand, ice cream parlor, coal, ice, wood, shoe shop, a sanitary plumber and tinsmith, Mr. Doulass W illiams, which branch is already open for business, and a carpenter shop. Second floor—gymnasium. Third floor—council hall, architecture and engineering, Jas. D. Scholl, and main office. Fourth floor—music conservatory, blue print room, printing office. Watch for next "write-up." This building will be open for inspection July 1.

MADISON CLUB'S MOONLIGHT EX
CURSION.
The excursion given by the Madison Club last Monday night was a grand success. Everything passed off quietly; only one bad Negro was on board and he was intercepted and soon met his "Waterloo." On the boat we saw many things which attracted our attention. Miss Carter Johnson, of 2018 Walnut street, was aboard. She is 22 years old, weighs only 95 pounds and is 17 inches around the waist. She is a stranger in St. Louis, and says she has the best of health. John Sneed and the two twins were as happy as Georgia Negroes wheat eat watermelons.
WHO IS GUILTY?
For the past three or four years only a few select have been admitted to the graduating exercises of the Summer high school. The men and women who have toiled for the best interests of our school, and who have spent money and time, cannot get/tickets. The old mothers that toiled over the wash tub have been forgotten by the men who run our high school. It is a pleasure to the old men and women who never had the opportunity to attend school to see the boys and girls as they appear upon the stage, showing the advancement of the race since the war.
Why will men waste their time if trying to get the secretary of the endowment of the U. B. F. and S. M. T., when they know they are not fitted for the place. S. T. Pettigrew, our present Grand Master has filled that office under Professor Willis N. Brent and was pronounced the best secretary; so all of you that want that office had better call off your dogs.
Commencement Exercises of Summer
High School at Century Theater,
Monday, June 17.
The exercises, which deserve much
praise, were carried out in accordance
with the programme. The choruses,
which were faultless, were directed by
Miss Finn.
Misses Alice T. Kibby and Fannie
M. Carter acquitted themselves with
honor.
Miss Ray Campbell was well
received, but her voice was weak.
The most interesting feature of the programme was the reading, "Julius Caesar." The reading as a whole was very-good, but there were several individuals whose reading was excellent. The reading of the young men was not nearly so well rendered as that of the girls. Since it has been my personal pleasure to make a special study of Shakespeare, and especially "Julius Caesar," I shall speak from my views of the reading, concerning several who read with an honor to themselves and to Summer high school.
Miss Hazel Wilkinson is a born Shakespearian, and suited the action to the word, her voice being well suited to the part assigned to her.
)
Rev. Dr. Venerable will preach his departing, or farewell sermon Sunday night, and will leave for Keokuk, Ia., Tuesday morning. He will enter formally upon his duties as pastor of the Seventh Street Baptist church of that city with the hope only of success. The doctor has done a great work in St. Louis, and leaves our city with the best wishes of all who know of his sterling qualities. "Compton Hill" and the people in general wish him Godspeed.
FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH NEWS.
Rev. Harris, the noted evangelist, is doing a great work in the revival. He has conducted the meetings very successfully for two weeks, and seems willing and ready to continue his services another fortnight if needed. The most wonderful sermons are being preached by this man of God, and the effects are being manifested far and near. Rev. Harris, we bid you God-speed.
Rev. George W. West, one of our influential preachers and citizens, will preach the financial sermon in the convention which will be held at the Baptist church in Baden at 11 a.m. next Sunday. It is hoped that a large crowd will turn out to help in this worthy cause.
The funeral of Rev. Alfred Johnson, a local preacher and a prominent member of the First Baptist church, took place at the above place last Monday at 2 p. m. Rev. Johnson lived and died in the triumph of faith, hence we are sure he is at rest without our blessed Redeemer on that happy shore where he will rest forevermore.
Madam Izella A. Evans, of Kansas City, the influential daughter of Rev. and Madam R. H. Cole, is in the city on a visit to her parents at 3527 Lawton avenue for a few days, and will go from here to Indianapolis, Ind., to spend a few days with her husband's people.
NOTICE OF THANKS
I wish to thank the Western Grand Master, W. H. Fields, and the members of all the councils for the grand token of their respect in the surprise they gave me on Wednesday, June 5, and also the beautiful badge that they presented to me on that occasion. Words are inadequate to express my gratitudeto them. How did it get out that I was 50 years old? It ought to be my secret, for women are not in the habit of telling their ages; yet I am thankful to our Lord that I have been spared to live so long. Again thanking one and all, I am, with respect.

$2.00 Per Annum, SingiCopy 6 cent:

Misses Lena Givens and Arlevia Williams, also Miss Grace Smith, deserwe much praise. Miss Givens took the part of Brutus. Still Miss Hazel Wilkinson was the center of attraction of that vast audience, and with a little training could master any of Shakespeare's productions. Her manner was faultless, and she sent a thrill through the audience, which proved she was the right person for that particular part.
Miss Buelah Gray took the part of Cassius.
"Our Colonial Possessions," by Mr. George Jones, was very good.
Messrs. Corinne Taylor, Olive A. Estell, Lulu L. Canaan and Etta C. James all deserve much praise, but lack of time and space forbids us to comment further on the programme.
We arrived at the theater rather just behind two mushrooms from South St. Louis. Between the two 15-cent hats they had on and their disorder it was impossible for the Palladium man to see or hear very much of what was going on. They kept up more noise than a basketful of monkies, cats and dogs together, and what capped the climax—they tried to look pretty and cute. We left at 9:15, and left our reporter in charge of the staff for the Palladium.
GRADUATION AT ATTUCKS.
A large number of the patrons and friends of Attucks school gathered last Friday morning, in the kindergarten room to witness the semi-annual graduation of the class that has just completed the eighth grade.
The room was handsomely decorated with the class colors, blue and yellow. A very interesting programme was rendered by the class, the music, under the direction of Miss Bertha P. Williams, being exceptionally fine. The class was addressed by Rev. George W. West and the diplomas awarded by Mr. James W. Grant. In the management of the exercises Principal John B. Vashon was ably assisted by Misses Hattie E. Peal and Helen R. Armstrong. Those receiving diplomas were: Imeida Davis, Jennie Townsend, Placide Boggs, Mattie Stockard, Bessie Wiggins, May Belle Cage, Augustus Overton, Benjamin Mills, Statie James, Andrew Jackson and Flemning Tyler.
CHILDREN'S ACADEMY VACATION.
The Children's academy has postponed its sessions at True Reformer's hall until cooler weather. Due notice of the reopening in the fall will be given.

SYMPATHY FOR THE FISH.
Upton Sinclair's Amazing Parable on Charity of the Rich.
Upton Sinclair, in an address before body of Chicago Socialists, said of charity:
"The average charity, the charity of me rich, seems rather futile to me; me rich oppress the poor enormously, so they help them slightly. It is the young lady angler.
"Why,' said a man to this young lady, do you always carry a bottle ofiment with you on your fishing exensions?
She sighed.
"I am sorry,' she said plaintively, or the poor little fish. And so, when take one off the hook, I always rub out mouth with some lioniment."
PURIFIED LIFE INSURANCE.
benefits from New Law, Which Remains Substantially Unchanged.
Through the influence of Gov. Hughes, the New York Legislature decided to make no radical changes in new insurance law. It was pointed by Gov. Hughes that the New York Gov has already accomplished wide-read reforms, with proportionate benefits to policymakers, and that it could be given a thorough trial before any amendments were seriously considered. It is estimated that the cost of the mismanagement of the past is not average more than 20 cents to each policymaker, while the benefits present and future policymakers will amount to many times more and cumulative besides. The speed one of the big companies and the excessive cost of securing new business is the most extravagant evil of the managements. Under the new time the cost of new business has already been greatly reduced, along with other economies.
The showing made by the Equitable
the Assurance Society in its report
1906 was a strong argument
must meddling with the new law.
The Equitable alone there was a
range of over $2,000,000 in expenses,
sides an increase in the income
on the Society's assets amounting
as much more. The ratios of the
Equitable's total expenses to its total
home was 19.42% in 1904, 17.38% in
1905 and only 14.43% in 1906. The
differences paid to Equitable polic-
yers in 1906 amounted to $7,289,734,
which was an increase of more than
over 1905.
While the Equitable made a better
bringing than any other big company,
reported radical economies and un-
such conditions the Legislature
decided to leave the law sub-
tactually as it stands.
FAILED IN SMALL THINGS.
progressman Evidently Was No Here to His Wife.
there is a certain congressman whatever authority he may hold the councils of state, is of comparably minor importance in his own household. Indeed, it has been unfully intimated that his wife is "the thing" in their establishment. representative and Mrs. Blank been to Baltimore one afternoon, then they left the train at Washing-on their return, Mrs. Blank disdired that her umbrella, which had an intrusted to the care of her husband, was missing. Where's my umbrella?" she desided.
I'm afraid I've forgotten it, my妈," meekly answered the congress. "It must still be in the train." In the train!" snorted the lady and to think that the affairs of the men are intrusted to a man who can't know enough to take care of a man's umbrella!" -Success Maga
Sarcasm.
The hatchet-faced female surveyed the trump at her back door, then she lifted the air suspiciously.
"You want something to eat?" she seered. "I smell liquor!"
"Hain't got any on me."
"Strange. I detect a distinct odor liquor."
"Ain't got a drop," the trump probed.
"Are you sure you haven't a bottle inscaled in your pocket?"
"Aw, take me word for it. If I did oblige yer an' produce. I never sniggy at sharin' de booze."
Thereupon he faded away gracefully.
WENT TO TEA
And It Wound Her Bobbin.
Tea drinking frequently affects peo- ses badly as coffee. A lady in Salis- sory, Md., says that she was com- mitted to abandon the use of coffee a good many years ago, because it treateden to ruin her health and that she went over to tea drinking, but also, she had dyspepsia so bad that she had lost twenty-five pounds and so food seemed to agree with her.
She further says: "As this time I was induced to take up the famous drink. Postum, and was so much pleased with the results that I have never been without it since. I commenced to improve at once, regained my twenty-five pounds of flesh and sent some beyond my usual weight.
"I know Postum to be good, pure and healthful, and there never was an article, and never will be, I believe, that does so surely take the place of coffee, as Postum Food Coffee. The beauty of it all is that it is satisfying and wonderfully nourishing. I feel as if I could not sing its praises too loud." And "The Road to Wellville," in pkgs there's a Reason."
FRISCO MAYOR ASKS RELEASE
SCHMITZ APPLIES TO COURT OF
APPEALS ON WRIT OF
HABEAS CORUS.
SIXTEEN SHOWINGS ARE MADE
Attorneys Declare He is Suffering from Incurable Disease and Imprisonment Would Cause His Death.
San Francisco, Cal.-Mayer Schmitz' attorneys applied to the district court of appeals for the release of the mayor on bail on writ of habeas corpus. Sixteen snowings are made in the appeal, and at least one of them is decidedly sensual. It is a declaration by his attorneys that the mayor is suffering from an incurable disease and that imprisonment in a jail would cause his death. It is understood that the disease referred to is an affection of the kidneys, and that it has advanced to a serious stage.
The petition alleges that the section of the penal code under which the mayor was ordered into custody is unconstitutional in that the petitioner is deprived of his liberty without due process of law. The petition further alleges that imprisonment of the mayor is in furtherance of a conspiracy by Rudolph Spreckles and others through a coercive power over the board of supervisors, who have confessed their guilt of bribery, to usurp the office of mayor and secure full political control of the affairs of San Francisco by removing all appointive officers of the city by arbitrary, illegal and revolutionary means.

The Original Hair Growers
We Grew Our Hair, Now Let Us Grow Yours With "Poro" Trade Mark (Registered)
President Roosevelt Said:
95,000 Acre Ranch of Dr. Chas. F. Simmons Now On the Market.
Here Is Your Opportunity to Buy a Farm of from 10 Aeres to 640 and Two Town Lots in This "Garden Spot" for $210. Payable $10 per Month Without Interest.
Investigation will show that this 95,000 acres comprises one of the finest bodies of Agricultural and Truck Farming land in the entire state commencing about 36 miles south of San Antonio and about two miles south of Pleasanton (the county seat of Atascosa County), and extending through Atascosa and a part of McMullen Counties, to within 17 miles of my 60,000-acre Live Oak County Ranch, which I in four months last year, sold to 4,000 Home Seekers, on liberal terms, without interest on deferred payments, which gives the poor man, from his savings, a chance to secure a good farm and town lot for his home in town. I will donate and turn over to three bonded Trustees, $250,000 from the proceeds of the sale of this property to the purchasers, as a bonus to the first railroad built through this property on the line which I shall designate.
This property is located on that middle plain between East Texas, where it rains too much, and the arid section of West Texas, where it does not rain enough. Its close proximity to San Antonio, the largest city in the State, with a claimed population of over 100,000, enhances its value as a market for Agricultural and Truck farm products far beyond the value of similar land not so favorably located.
Topography.
Level to slightly rolling. Large, broad, rich valleys, encircled by elevations suitable for homes; 90 per cent. fine farming land, balance pasture land.
Forestry
Ash, Elm, Gum, Hackberry, Live Oak, Mesquite, Pecan, abundant for shade, fencing and wood.
Soil.
About 60 per cent, rich, dark, sandy loam, balance chocolate or red sandy loam, usually preferred by local farmers, and each with soil averaging from 2 to 4 feet deep, with clay subsoll, which holds water.
Climate.
Mild, balmy, healthy, practically free from malaria, few frosts, no snow, no hard freezes; continuous sea breeze moderates extremes of heat and cold, producing warm winters and cool summers. Average temperature about 62 degrees.
Rainfall.
From the Government record, it is safe to assume that the rainfall on this property has been fully 35 inches per year, which is more than some of the old States have had, and is plentiful for ordinary crops properly cultivated, and for Grass Growing.
Improvements and Water
This property is fenced and cross-fenced in many large and small pastures, with four barbed wires, with posts about 12 feet apart. Also a number of fine shallow wells.
Also a number of fine Lakes and Tanks.
Also, a number of fine flowing Artesian Wells, whose crystal streams flow for miles and miles down those creeks, whose broad, rich valleys, irrigable from those continuously flowing streams, make it the ideal place for the Marketing Gardener who desires to raise from two to three crops of marketable produce on the same ground every year.
Farming and Truck Farming.
This land is adapted to profitable culture of Beans, Cabbage, Celery, Cucumbers, Lettuce, Tomatoes, Beets, Carrots, Onions, Radish, Squash, Strawberries, Cauliflower, Okra, Oyster Plant, Peas, Rasberries, Turnips, Apricots, Cantaloupes, Grapes, Irish Potatoes, Olives, Sweet Potatoes, Bananas, Dates, English Walnuts, Figs, Melons, Peanuts, Barley, Blackberries, Broom Corn, Lemons, Plums, Tobacco, Alfaifa, Rye, Oranges, Peaches, Pecans, Corn, Cotton, Oats, Wheat, Apples, Pears.
Page 63 of the book entitled "Beautiful San Antonio," officially issued by the Business Men's Club of San Antonio, dated May, 1906, says:
"It is readily conceded by all those who know anything about Texas that the most prolific agricultural section is that which recognizes San Antonio as its logical center, particularly that portion directly south of San Antonio, with the Gulf of Mexico bordering on the southeast and the Rio Grande bordering on the south and west.
"Within the last four or five years, in the territory named, special attention has been given to growing vegetables, they maturing at a time when they secure the maximum prices on Northern markets, which markets they virtually invade without a competitor. The profit in growing vegetables in this territory will be seen by an examination of the following figures, secured from reliable sources, showing Net Earnings Per Acre:
"Watermelons from $75.00 to $200.00.
"Cantaloupes from $40.00 to $75.00.
"Cabbage from $125.00 to $225.00.
"Cauliflower from $75.00 to $225.00.
"Beans and Peas from $100.00 to $125.00.
"Tomatoes from $125.00 to $400.00.
"Potatoes from $60.00 to $150.00.
"Orions from $150.00 to $800.00.
"Tabasco Peppers from $500.00 to $900.00 per acre.
"The Chicagq Record-Herald publishing the folloving individual experiences in South Texas:
"Men who came here with $500 and $600 a few years ago are now independently rich.
"A young man who came to this
country for his health, bought 18
acres and in one year cleared over
$6,000 from it, which was $333.33 per
acre.
"Another man, 65 years old, from 79
acres, sold $5,000 worth of produce,
from which he realized $63.29 per acre
and then raised a Cotton crop on part
of it, which made him $35 per acre,
which made the same land net him
$98.29 per acre for that year.
"Another man from 80 acres in 1904
realized as follows: From Onions,
$2,226.91: from Cotton, $1,800; 200
bushels Corn; 12 tons Hay; 5,000
pounds Sweet Potatoes.
"Another made $3,200 from five
acres of early Cabbage, which was
$640 per acre, and grew a second crop
of Corn and Pear on the same ground
that year.
"Another realized $27,000 from 90
car loads of Cabbage, averaging $300
per car, which was $207.69 from each
of the 130 he had planted.
"Another netted, above all expenses, $60 per acre on Potatoes, and planted the same ground in Cotton that year from which he realized $25 per acre, which made that ground yield him $95 per acre.
"Another realized $32,966 from 230 acres in Melons, which was $143.33 per acre.
"Another netted $21,000 from 35 acres in Onions, which was $600 per acre.
"Another netted $17,445, or $79.25 per acre from nine cuttings of 220 acres in Alfalfa, which yielded in one year 4,475 tons and sold at $11 per ton.
"Another received $900 from one acre in Cauliflower; sown in July, transplanted in August, and marketed in December."
The same authority quotes the following statement from the Hon. Joseph Daily, of Chillicotte, Ill., who owns thousands of acres in the Illinois Corn Belt. He says:
"I am one of the heaviest taxpayers on farm lands in Mason and Tazewell Counties, Illinois, and I have been familiar with the conditions around San Antonio for 12 years. Any thrifty farmer can get rich, and make more money off of this cheap land, acre for acre, than any land in the State of Illinois, that sells from $150 to $225 per acre."

FEDERAL RECEIVER
WATERS-PIERCE STOCKHOLDERS
SAY BUSINESS IS RUINED.
THEY MAY SELL FOR $42,000,000
Dona Fide Offer Made, the Declaration in Court at Sherman, Texas.
Sherman, Tex.—Bradley W. Palmer, a stockholder of the Waters-Pierce Oil Co., through his attorney, filed an application for a receiver for the company in the United States district court here, alleging that the business of the company was being ruined by litigation brought by the Texas officers and that the last legislature passed such drastic anti-trust laws that the company is anxious to quit the state, but that the recent judgments secured in Travis county act as a cloud on the title of the property of the company and renders it impossible to sell.
It is alleged that it has a bona-fide offer of $42,000,000 for its tangible property and contracts and that it really wants to get out of Texas. It is further alleged that the stringent antitrust laws which become effective July 12 will make it a felony for any employees to work for a trust; that all employees of the company will quit on that date, and that in order to conserve the business it will be necessary for some authority to arrange to carry it on.
The company voluntarily appeared, waived service and prayed for the same relief asked by the stockholder filing t.e. bill.
Judge Bryant granted the petition and named C. B. Dorchester, cashier of the Merchants' and Planters' Bank of Sherman, as receiver, fixing his bond at $100,000. In making this order, Judge Bryant notified the attorneys for the proponent that he wanted it understood that the property and proceeds arising from the sale of the assets of the concern would be held in his court for the payment of the state's judgment of $1,500,000 should that judge be made inal.
REMAINS OF MAN-OF-WAR.
1,200 Tons of Ecrap Iron Is All that Is Left of the Viper.
St. John, N. B.—A pile of 1,200 tons of scrap iron in the hold of the dismasted bark Wildwood, which has arrived here from Bermuda in tow of the ocean tug Gladisfen, is all that remains of the old British man-of-war Viper. The Viper was one of the English-made warships with which the confederacy proposed to destroy the United States navy during the civil war, but. British government learned of the use intended of the warship and she was confiscated and later sent to Bermuda.
May Sell Zion City Property
Chicago—Judge E. M. Landis of the United States district court granted to John C. Hately authority to sell property in Zion City held by Hately as receiver. He also entered an order allowing a discount to investors in Zion City property 10 per cent on payments of areas, it having been shown that investors had contracted to pay for the property more than it was actually worth. In order to protect the property, Receiver Hately has arranged to pay one-third of the interest on the outstanding indebtedness up to March 1.
To Continue Eight on Liquor Tax.
Atlantic City, N. J.—The National Liquor Dealers' association held a busy meeting. The membership fee was raised from $25 to $50. "A number of stirring resolutions were adopted. One declared for a continuance of the fight in congress for a lower tax on distilled spirits; that the present rate is outrageous, and that also that as the present internal revenue act is 45 years old, it should be revised. The association protested against present "unfairly pure food law."
Dr. William Osler Denounced.
Los Angeles, Cal.-A resolution, denouncing Dr. William Osler as "Medical hilist," and refuting his theories regarding the age limit, was introduced in the convention of the National Electric Medical association by Dr. C.

SUFFERED TORTURES.
Racked with Pain, Day and Night,
for Years.
Wm. H. Walter, engineer, of Chats-
worth, Ills., writes: "Kidney disease

system for years. I
had torturing pain
in the side and
back and the urine
was dark and full
of sediment. I was
racked with pain
day and night,
could not sleep or

sat well, and finally became crippled and bent over with rheumatism. Doan's Kidney Pills brought quick relief, and in time, cured me. Though I lost 40 pounds, I now weigh 200, more than ever before."

HE ALSO WAS A COLLECTOR.
Cleveland Artist Came Back with a Counter Proposition.
A local newspaper artist got a letter one day from a man over in Indiana who said he was making a collection of sketches, says the Cleveland Plain Dealer. "I have drawings from well known newspaper artists in nearly every state in the union," the Indiana man wrote, "but I have none from Ohio. I have seen some of your work and I think it is good. If you will send me some little sketch for my collection I shall have it framed." The artist noticed from the letterhead that the Indiana man was connected with a bank in one of the small towns in the state of literature. That gave him a hunch, and he wrote back as follows:
"I am making a collection of ten dollar bills. I haven't secured specimens from every state in the union, but I have several tens and a few twenties, and I am particularly anxious to have a ten dollar bill from Indiana. I notice that you are employed in a place where ten dollar bills are kept, and if you send me one for my collection I shall be glad to have it framed."
Laundry work at home would be much more satisfactory if the right Starch were used. In order to get the desired stiffness, it is usually necessary to use so much starch that the beauty and fineness of the fabric is hidden behind a paste of varying thickness, which not only destroys the appearance, but also affects the wearing quality of the goods. This trouble can be entirely overcome by using Defiance Starch, as it can be applied much more thinly because of its greater strength than other makes.
Campaign Against Rats.
The French admiralty is preparing a campaign against the rats which swarm in seaport towns and undoubtedly spread the infection of various devastating diseases in their passage from one country to another on board ship. It is announced that it will soon be compulsory for every vessel entering a French harbor from certain other ports to have all its rats exterminated.
The greatest cause of worry on ironing day can be removed by using Defiance Starch, which will not stick to the iron. Sold everywhere, 16 oz. for 10c.

WORKING WOMEN, WHAT THEY SHOULD KNOW
A
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound Succeeds Where Others Fail.
The Eternal Woman.
It is because it is always impossible to know how a woman will act, to grasp the workings of her mind, to pierce the veil that hides the innermost recesses of her soul, that she has held such complete sway over man. He can never definitely rely upon her.—London World.
With a smooth iron and Defiance Starch, you can launder your shirt-waist just as well at home as the steam laundry can; it will have the proper stiffness and finish, there will be less wear and tear of the goods, and it will be a positive pleasure to use a Starch that does not stick to the iron.
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.

WORKING
WHAT THEY
MRS.SADIE ABBOTT
Women for the most part spend their lives at home, and it is these women who are willing and ambitious that their homes shall be kept neat and pretty, their children well dressed and tidy, who do their own cooking, sweeping, dusting and often washing, ironing and sewing for the entire family, who call for our sympathy.
Truly the work of such a woman is "never done" and it is any wonder that she breaks down at the end of a few years, the back begins to ache, there is a displacement, inflammation or ulceration of the abdominal organs, a female weakness is brought on, and the struggle of that wife and mother to continue her duties is painful.
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, made from native roots and herbs, is the exact medicine a woman needs whose strength is overtaxed. It keeps the feminine organs in a strong and healthy condition. In preparing for childbirth and recuperating therefrom it is most efficient. It carries a woman safely through the change of life and in making her strong and well assists her to be a good wife and mother.
Mrs. Sadie Abbott, of Jeannette, Pa., writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham—
"I suffered severely with pain every month and also a pain in my left side. My doctor prescribed for me but did me no good: a friend advised Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound and I wrote you in regard to my condition. I followed your advice and am a perfectly well woman.

Review Methods.
Map Review.—Use a map which includes Palestine, Egypt and Mesopotamia. If you have none, copy one from a teacher's Bible, in rough outline, on a large sheet of paper or a blackboard. Provide circles of cardboard marked "Ja," "Jo," and "Mo." Get the class to pin these upon the places where Jacob, Joseph and Moses lived or visited. For Jacob these will be successively Beersheba, Bethel, Haran, Penuel, Hebron; for Joseph, Hebron, Dothan, Tanis or Hellopolis; for Moses Memphis or Tanis, Helopolis, the land of Midian, Horeb, Memphis again, the land of Goshen, Etham, the Red sea. The scholars will take turns fastening on these circles, and as each is put in place something will be told about the event that occurred at that locality. When the class are able to place these circles correctly, removing them and replacing 'them several times, then take strings, a different color for each of the three characters, and get the scholars to stretch them from one pin to another, to represent the journeys taken by each.
The Three Heroes Review.—Each scholar will be asked, a week in advance, to choose one of the three heroes of the quarter's lesson—Jacob, Joseph or Moses—and prepare a five-minute or three-minute essay upon him, to be read the next Sunday. The teacher, of course, will see to it that each hero is treated in about the same number of essays.
The Four Countries Review.—Divide the class into groups, each group to study together for this review. There will be four groups each to study one of the four countries which our quarter's lessons have entered—Canaan, Mesopotamia, Egypt and the land of Midian. Each group will be prepared to tell what events of the quarter occurred in its country, and of how that country influenced the progress of the Hebrew history.
The Large Problems Review.—This form of review is best adapted to adult classes. It will consist of a series of essays or talks on the following topics: Steps in the development of the Hebrews as a nation. Steps in the development of the Hebrews' knowledge of God. How these lessons illustrate God's overruling of the mistakes and sins of men. Proof of the authenticity of these narratives. Lessons of the quarter's study for modern times. Chiel lessons of the quarter for the individual Christian. Some of these topics may best be treated by a general discussion.

GOOD IDEA FOR MATCHES.
Double Enders Popular Among Smokers in Mexico.
"Mexico may be behind us in some things, but she has us lashed to the wheel when it comes to making matches," said a man just in from the land of the Montezumas as he handed out a wax lucifer with a head on each end.
"I saw nothing but double ended matches while I was away, and I can tell you that they save one's record with the Recording Angel. If you dig down in your pocket and find one match the chances are that you are sure of a light, because if one end goes out the other is left. These old time matches, just revived, that splutter brilliant sparks may be all right when it comes to pleasing the baby, but the fellow who puts on the market a double ended match will find a ready demand."
BLACK, ITCHING SPOTS ON FACE.
Physician Called I Eczema in Worst Form—Patient Despaired of Cure— Cuticura Remedies Cured Her.
"About four years ago I was afflicted with black splotches all over my face and a few covering my body, which produced a severe itching irritation, and which caused me a great deal of suffering, to such an extent that I was forced to call in two of the leading physicians of —— After a thorough examination of the dreaded complaint they announced it to be skin eczema in the worst form. Their treatment did me no good. Finally I became despondent and decided to discontinue their services. My husband purchased a single set of the Cuticura Remedies, which entirely stopped the breaking out. I continued the use of the Cuticura Remedies for six months, and after that every splotch was entirely gone. I have not felt a symptom of the eczema since, which was three years ago. Mrs. Lizzie E. Sledge, 540 Jones Ave., Selma, Ala., Oct. 28, 1905."

Heat on Tobacco Improves it Like Roasting Improves Green Coffee. Heat Develops the Stimulating Aroma and Taste found in Schnapps Tobacco and Coffee
Three ways are used by farmers for curing and preparing their tobacco for the market; namely sun cured, air cured and flue cured. The old and cheap way is called air cured; the later discovery and improved way is called flue cured.
In flue curing the tobacco is taken from the fields and racked in barns especially built to retain heat and there subjected to a continuous high temperature, produced by the direct heat of flame heated flues, which brings out in the tobacco that stimulating taste and aroma that expert roasting develops in green coffee. These similar processes give to both tobacco and coffee the cheering and stimulating quality that popularizes their use. The quality of tobacco depends much on the curing process and the

Would Take What They Had.
A gentleman purchased at a post office a large quantity of stamped envelopes, newspaper wrappers and other postal requisitions.
Finding them somewhat difficult to carry, he asked one of the counter clerks if he could supply him with a small quantity of string.
"We are not permitted by the department to supply string," was the reply.
"Then give me a bit of red tape," was the sarcastic retort.

Life is the daily web of character we unconsciously weave. Our thoughts, imaginations, purpose, motives, love, will, are the under threads; and the passing moment is the suttle, swiftly, ceaselessly, relentlessly, weaving those threads into a web; and that web is life—S. D. Gordon.
