The Appeal

Cats, like *serpents*, have long been the pets prey by a glance from their eyes. Elizabeth Cunningham, who went to Believe, twice in one day, with her jaws recently, twice in one day, with her jaws because of the effect of cat vomit on the cause has caused much wonder among laymen so wonderful is the case in point that it resembles in many respects the story of Dr. John Cunningham hypnotized by a glance at a photograph of Mrs. Cunningham feels her relax and its even at the mention of the word hypnotized by a glance at a photograph to show signs of mental unnessiness. Many times while walking peacefully confronted by a stray cat and been obliged to walk home speeches, she is not a young, nervous girl. She has lived in this world of sorrow so that her peculiar misfortune cannot be attributed to a youthful nervousness, ways, she first felt the hypnotic influence. A pet kitten with which she was playing suddenly went mad in her arms. When she saw the furry creature run, writhing, spitting and scratching, through every room in the impression made at that time upon so strong that she never 'forget it.' he teaped to a table, screaming. He found herself looking straight at the audience, herself looking straight at the mouth open as if she were still shouting, but not a sound came from her lips. Her jaws were tightly wedged, and she looked up at her face. Everybody supposed she had "locks" on his own accord, someone went away of his own accord, she again in her normal condition. But the four of a cat would not go. She repeated by a recurrence of the malady, and paws go about its business and paws not about the cat. He attention to the cat. He environment face her or the moment she comes face to face with one unexpectedly and gets a look into its own parting and shows all the outward symptoms of being afflicted with tetans. On the day that she was conveyed to the audience, all exhibited the usual signs. the house of Edgar in the morning, like the horse of Edgar. "Edgar is black. Black Cat," she found a cat, in her room Of course it threw her into a "spell" when she took the hospital in an ambulance. The cat was driven from the house. The cat was, perfectly cured, to all intents and purposes, she found another stray cat the hospital went in short order. In an hour or so she was well again and, in fact, perfectly cured, at the hospital was to place a hand under her open law and tell her that there was an sight, and that she had better be calm. Whereupon her paws clicked back into place, speaking of the case. Dr. Hallwell of the Bellevue hospital said that in his opinion the woman had no signs of hysteria. He declared that it was nothing more than an unusual manifestation of hysteria. On the other hand, Mrs. Cunningham declares that she was hypnotized by the cat. "I always have a peculiar feeling when I see one—a sort of sinking sensa-ness." If the cat fikes me with its big green, not run away, I see it awake and not run away. I see it lose the use of my limba and be robbed of all power of me. I never been hypnotized, but I know that if I should be the sonma-ner, "Why I open my mouth, and why I cannot close it again as is much a mys-teria, as it seems to be to everybody else." Dr. George F. Shrady regarded the woman as the one who had the woman was evidently afflicted with the same mental hysteria he said. He told the woman that she lived the lives of the Hindoo priests, and so-called miracle workers, a doctor, 'are on record where men have been able to control the involuntary muscles of the body for a period, and have been able to produce curious results.' 'One man stopped the beating of his own heart and threw himself into a deep sleep for thirty or sixty days.' 'Auto-hypnotism is the name of this curious disease as can be found in the book 'Nine Corcoran', who attracted much attention because it was nothing else than a form of hysteria or 'auto-hypnotism.' When the sleep resulted in actual death. The autopsy showed that there was nothing wrong with the India you often hear of the fancies who about inflict terrible wounds to their own self-inflicted wounds and the subsequent loss of blood makes them an object of respectful generation to their parents.

Many snakes, many of them of un- known country, been seen in Mommouth county, New York, get, measuring "a foot, was killed three days ago in a fierce battle; with a building, a fence, an Applegate Swamp, your Re Bank. Mr. Applegate was driving through a peach orchard and the dog, named Jack, on the seat with him, then the rep- sentation of the wagon hanged tree and fell into the wagon box to get out of the wagon and climb a nearby fence. From this point of vantage he saw the wagon. about three feet from its head. While the dog was violously shaking the reptile it was gradually winding its coils about Jack. Three times the snake wrapped its elimy length about the dog, and then the coils began to tighten. Slowly the snake twisted its head around until two glittering eyes met those of its brute antarghist, and then like a flash its fangs shot out three times. "Appeal to you, the fangs had a degree of the face and that the tighten in the snake's coils was slow, causing the brute to weaken. The snake was preparing to strike again, when Jack, quick as lightning, let go its hold and set his teeth in the reptile's throat." "I don't think the snake was really seekered until then," said Mr. Applegate, "but when Jack got his ivories in the yarmint's throat I could see Mr. Snake feared he was a goer and made up his mind to die hard. He seemed to writhe in his mouth, and he shressed that tall black reptile, and he had a dog on his back one minute and on his feet, but I knew Jack would never let go unless the poison them fangs shot into him put him to sleep. For three minutes the snake kept up his anxiety, and then he began to weaken. He wound himself by degrees from the dog and kind of battered out, and then Jack let go. The snake was dead." The dog had two small wounds on its paws, and he was mowed down by a mowed dog, for the rest of the day. He was a dog who was as dead Jack stood about watching it.

A. memories and histories breaches. There are mosques, a palace, a fort, a pillar of a tower, a cinnamon or may be a cinnamon or may be a Silver street. Q. Is that all? A. Do you want them? These answers describe with no undue exaggeration the very vague ideas which Delhi is to figure so prominently in the English newspapers during the next three centuries its pronunciation does not always come trippingly to the tongue—"Delyl" of the Wendell Holmes would have had it. Oliver Wendell Holmes ago he made his bitter, biting p But Delhi is by no means a splendid Golgotha. It is a busy, bustling city, with a strong dash of Crewe and Clapham junction about it. It is the greatest railway in India, and the most�ous of its people find dally work in the railway yards and railway workshops which are congregated within and without its battle-scarred walls. Where the cannon roared five-and-forty years ago the busier boom to day. And the screaming whistles which call together must be the armies of industry make louder than the rains of the day. When they summoned men to the slaughter when they were shot, the world was a \(10^{th}\)-century city of the Orient. It is considerably larger than the Bolton or Cardin, and the population of 208,000 falls only a little below the Level of Newcastle and Hull, and is growing steadily. Before the mutiny, Hindus and Mohammedans were nearly equally divided, but the census of 1802 returns 11,400 Hindus to 88,400 Mohammedans. There are in India only thirty-five Parcees, the keenest of the India, and but four Jews, figures which are the only two of the \({^\circ}\)plains, which the Hindu, more plainly than words that the Hindu is a man who does not require to be taught the tricks of his trade. It may help to remove a little of the false glamor which is gathering over the ancient seat of Mohammedan dynasties, and to make the country more of a man of ten years or two ago opened in Delhi, also a soap factory and a steam bakery, and that the manner in which the proclamation of King Edward as emperor of India is made is still very common. In the construction of a new thoroughfare through the city, own which will run an electric tramway. There are cotton, mills and iron foundries in Delhi with women and women earn their living within its walls by working in modern factories, and women earn their living in the military from England and the United States, a very heart of the great railway system, which connects all these systems are indeed great. For ex-ample, which connects Delhi with the northwest, frontier, controls a greater area, which connects a greater manager in the world, with a single exception, which occurs in the United States. So let it be understood that Delhi, with its rich soil, provides a vital relief, throbs with worsening vitality. Calcutta, the winter seat of the govern- ment, is the toucher seat in one corner of the peninsula. Calcutta is the most important seaport, and the most enter- taining city in the world. It is traucked away in another. Apart from tradition, Delhi, from its locality in the midle of the plains of Hindustan, with iron roofs, is the most convenient city north, south, east and west, is the most convenient and the most suitable city for travel. Tradition, however, counts for, perhaps, even more in the East than in the West, though we have realized during the past year how very large a part it still plays in our national life. We could not imagine the coronation of King Edward having been recognized in any other minister or cathedral. We must, of course, remember Nor can the pattives of proclaimed in any other city but Delhi. There was no jealousy among the provincial cities last spring at the thought that London might reap a golden harvest in the summer. So there is no jealousy in India over Delhi's good fortune at the New Year. And Delhi herself, as we have said, is a man who is not so good fortune as the folklore of industrial progress in the forefront of the London. What is this Durbar? The word itself is of Persian origin, signifying originally a king's audience chamber, and hence the assemblies that congregate in such a chamber. Probably the briefest and most vivid account of a Durbar in the English language was given by the found of the second verse of the third chapter of the book of Daniel: "Then Nebuchadnezzar, the king sent to gather together the princes, the governors, and the captains, the judges, the treasurers, the counselors, the sheriffs, and all the rulers of the provinces to come to the dedication of the king, and to be them, and to be the king, had set up." Such was an Eastern Durbar six centuries before Christ. So is it in this twentieth century of the Christian era. Princes, governors, captains, etc., when they gather together with their guests, bring with them many shekels of silver and many shekels of gold. They spend the coin lavishly. And the ancient arts and industries of the Orient—for which Delhi is still famous—will receive a new and vigorous stimulus. Electric light is to be installed for the Durbar cam and Delhi will in future be lighted with electricity. Motor cars are to be allowed, but not within the city walls. We hear so much of horses being frightened by a motor car; but imagine the scene if a forty horse power Panhard ran teuf-teuf-teufing down an avenue of unaccustomed elephants. As it is, the authorities have been warned that the noise and excitement of the bands and salutes may upset the equilibrium of the more emotional pachyderms. At the Durbar of 1877 several accidents occurred from runaway elephants. The captains and the kings depart. Delhi will count up her material giving. Her trade will have received a new impetus; her ways and her methods will have been even more modernized. In a little while the boast will be heard that Delhi, the rose red city of history, the ancient, glorious capital of Hindustan, claims to be called the Battersea of India, perhaps even the Birmingham of the Orient.

Twenty thousand members of the Holy Name church in New York were so close as to be in a feature of which was mass meetings in the churches at which addresses were made by the vicar general of the Brooklyn diocese and other clergymen dwelling upon the evil of blasphemy and the need of a high feeling of reverence for divine things. It is a deplorable fact that the silly and vicious practice of using profane language of the worst sort on any and all occasions seems to be on the increase among men of all ages and classes, and particularly among the poor. It is necessary to listen for a few moments to the casual conversation of boys and young men who congregate on the street corners and other public places, to be aware of this. The practice is not only silly but vicious and degrading to the last degree, and parents, religious leaders and teachers, and all others who have oversight and guidance of the young cannot too strongly reprobate and discourage the habit. No man who would respect is worth having will indulge in blasphemous language, no matter whether he has any religious scruples or not. It is never the mark of a gentleman any way. —Leslie's Weekly.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 27, 1902. Once more the year is drawing to a close; and, ere another issue of The Appeal, it will be added to the centuries gone before. It has been a year in a quiet pace of liberty which should the new year shortly to dawn, prove to be no worse we would all have as much to be thankful for as we have for the one about to close. Thanking the giver of all good things for His blessings of 1892, and hoping in a gentleance of the gracious bounty for 1902, we wish all a Happy New Year. It is with great pleasure that we are able to state that the Capitol Savings Bank, of Washington, C. which holds the bank's weekly checks, has had a meeting of its stockholders, over which its president, Capt. John Lynch, presided, and at this meeting the cashier made a report shwing an account of the bank's assets to $20,185.9. It is hoped the institution may again begin business, as we have too few of its kind to lose one. We cannot conceive how alleged white Christians can feel, or believe, that their actions in which they show their hatred to their black brothers are justified to God. For several weeks the Sunday School of Emmanuel Baptist Church, Brooklyn, N. Y., has been in the throes of senseless prejudice on account of the fact that an Afro-American young woman saw it to attend the school. We have been refused refuge to sit in a class with her, although it has been definitely determined that she shall not be excluded from the school. Since the sum of Christianity is comprised in the words "the people as you would that others do unto you," we are inclined to the belief that hell is full of such Christians.

Only a single member under heaven. Then is the maiden's form to the maid. Not only to keep down the base in man. But teach high thought and amable words. And courtliness and the desire of fame.

Tenynon kept faith with his maiden passion and so did Emily Selwood and on June 13, 1550, the month which saw the publication of "in Memorium." there was a wedding of "of the quietude," in Shipleakee church, "one of the grand and old churches." Miss Mitford says, "which give so much of character to English landscapes." It is probably true of most women that their first ideals of love are of some one who shall love them supremely, and that is they grow older, their cry is first of all, for some one to love supremely.

By J. R. Harnett. $1.50. New York: Harper & Rother. This is a volume of ludicrous situations, described in a humorous style, encountered in England by Monsieur D'Haricot, a French political refugee. D'Haricot was a member of the Une. Deux. Trois League, or the U.D. T.s, as they styled themselves, "the last hope of royalty in France." In the narration of his experiences he writes, while in England: "I shall tell you since the affair is now no secret, and as it hereafter touches my narrative. I was a Royalist, an adherent of the rightful King of France. I am still; I boast it openly. But at that time a demonstration had been premature, a government was alarmed, and I had fled." * The truth is that I was already in mourning for myself. The prospect of entering history by the martyr's postern had seemed noble in the heat of action and the excitement of intrigue. Now I desire only my liberty and as little public interest to be made to the future.

Before one proceeds very far into the volume of the novel, the English�, drawn with the master hand of the artist capable of seeing the humorous side of the most pathetic situations, and designing it with a skill which puts the author's early in the front rank of humorous writers. M. D'Haricot is not in England very long before he is drawn into a duel, which is described with all the unit and risibility of the immortal combat in which Bob Acres found himself involved. He was the first of the story recall Mark Twain's "Innocence Abroad," and are well capable of elicting the merry ha! ha! from anyone, however grave or pessimistic. The international many situations through which D'Haricot passes, and which are related with such a charming simplicity of style and literary adroiness are the most important features of the story, and the more elasible addition to the library of anyone.

MEMOIRS OF A CONTEMPORARY Memoirs of a Contemporary. By Ida Saint-Elme. Translated and edited by her husband, the most interesting volumes of the year. The authoress lived during the Napoleonic era—she was intimately associated with the French Revolution and an adventurer of remarkable personal during, and possessed of unusual knowledge. She was also to the students of French history characterized by the success of Napoleon's great Lieutenant-general at once entertaining and authentic. The period印象小说. The French Revolution was one of the most brilliant political and military events of the century. The throw of the rotten Bourbon dynasty, and the rise of the common people possesses for her the greatest merit. For this reason, no less than the writer, "The Memoirs of a Contemporary" is a book which one lays down regret that she had not written more. The volume is profusely illustrated with a series of photographs and a lithograph of the writer taken at the age of fifty years discloses a face of a man who is said to be that of George Eliot. whose viridity she possesses in a marked degree. The author's swaister of Holland' describes as being a man of great meanor, cautious in his speech in spite of his weakness he affected, and much given to battery'. Of General Moreau, the masterful strategy and fightless man, was not given to guillainy. The woman, who had of all the world could not have made a troop of four, but he was a sure and devoted friend. But he was a sure and devoted friend, who knew whom he liked. Towards strangers or people whom he may saw he was cold and hard, following Moreau, to Italy, she summarizes his campaign as follows: "Mortality of the enemy, whose army together, at the head of twenty-five thousand men he defied a hostile attack, of four for the enemy, and retreated through Milan and Pledmont, yielding only step by step. He gurled several times, and through his skill and strategy rendered their numerical superpower. At the battle of Eyleau in Germany, in the enemy charge and was wounded. Just before the first time and met Marshal Ney for the first time and met the best man, who quoted part: 'Had I been less well acquainted with Ney's character the strange hostility that set in from the first day of the Restoration between his sentiments and his sense of duty would still be an inexplicable riddle to me. But in essaying to sketch this great soul, one of the most generous and loyal natures ever made, I am forced to acknowledge his defects. Under manners which were at times uncouth, Ney wore the gentlest and more bocage of hearts. "Ney has been caluminated by parsonas accusing him of getting upon premeditated design. The idea of a good plan required the facility in lying was utterly incompatible with the openness of heart and mind which always distinguished him. We had to go to forget his obligations toward the King; it was behind the public opinion that condemned the Bourbon rule that he saw the welfare of his country. The Great Corsican himself is told of this very remarkable woman and she does not find a flirtation which he carried on with her with which he had been only interesting reading that many of the highly improbable stories told of Napoleon's wonderful genius. The battle of Waterloo to which she was a way of life was described with power and vividness, as a way of the people and places which clinged in the rise and fall of the career of the greatest military and political leader in the history of the world. FRENCH CATHEDRALS AND CHA TEAUK French Cathedrals and Chateaux. By Chateaux, illustrated with photogramae 'frontispaced' two half-tone plates: Two volumes 12 mo. and 18 mo. Each plate contains the cathedral, the cathedra, and chateaux of France around which so much of his life was spent. The facets of perennial interest. Nowhere can be found so many splendid examples of French architecture and builders of bygone days. The subject of French architecture natura- lly devoted to the Gothic, and the other to the Renaissance style. Under the first debut of the Gothic, the other under the second the Palaces and Chateaux of France. The classification re- lationships of the Gothic style are ecclesiastical or domestic. There were, of course, many Gothic chateaux in France and England, but a large proportion of the Gothic chateaux was destroyed at the beginning of the Renaissance riod, and the Renaissance period was a classical building. The earliest monument of a people have always been developed in France was the Gothic conge Copyright, 1902, by Harper & Bros. quently, its first and most important monuments were churches. With the Renaissance ideas of private luxury and the growth of art, churches became the most meetic style; therefore the Renaissance monuments in France are chiefly palaces and chateaux. The study of architecture is indisolubly bound up with the study of history; the study of architecture is sometimes a nation's record, sometimes the only one of her life and faith; the study of the characteristics of climate conditions, and of those various influences which go to work will be found not only that later work will be found not only that later work will be associated itself with the great monuments associated itself with the great accounts of the people whose early migrations and whose genius produced its peculiar and brilliant civilization. Volume I, takes up the history of the France of the Franks and the Gothic of St. Danis, Notre Dame, Paris; Norse of St. Danis, Notre Dame, Laon; Norse of St. Danis, Notre Dame, Laon; Ribon, Ribon; Pleer, Beauvais.

The binding is beautiful in decoration. THE STORY OF CUPID AND PSYCHE. THE Story of Cupid and Psyche. Done into English from the Latin of Lucius, illustrated with drawings by Rathael. New York: R. H. Russell. One of the most exquisite books of the holiday season, both in point of contents and mechanical make-up, is "The Story of Cupid and Psyche." It is, white-hair quarto, exquisitely bound in brown and gold and printed in script type. The pub- [Copyright, 1902, R. H. Russell.] illustrators have taken the beautiful English translation that Walter Water made of the legend of the apothecary Apuleius, and have put it with the celestial which are now preserved in the Vita Farmaceutia in Rome. These with the pre-history drawings completely illustrate the nooketted of Apuleius thus producing a lovely book, which every cultured man could put on the table. A happier combination is made that Plato's painting and the art of telling a story—the romance told by Apuleius and Raphael's pictures. ON AN IRISH JAUNTING-CAR On an Irish Jaunting-Car. By S. G. Bayne, Author of "The Fifth of Asturias," and "The Fifth of London." Harper and Brothers, Harper must be a very observing man, for he must be interested in and interesting journey through Ireland he notes many things, never before made by a traveler through the Emerald Isle. Mr. Bayne was greatly pleased with the modern Irish Jaunt car which he tells the best vehicle invented for an easy and the most joung ride when balanced by two wheels. If one may not take the actual journey it will be at least a happy substitute to follow Mr. Bayne's lines to the bluffs of Lough Swilly, where the Atlantic booms into numerous caves, the wild mountains are covered with blooming beather and the sapphire of the sea is in strong contrast to the rich green of the pines, or to Horn Head, where the range of beetling mountains projects some ten miles into the Atlantic—the crags and horns being over 600 feet high and displaying all the colors of the rainbow from deepest black to red, yellow, gray, purple and green; or to Lough Veigh, where an almost perpendicular wall rises over 1,200 feet and is nearly covered with Alpine vegetation. Over the top of this wall several large streams fall and break into cascades as they find their way below. And for a background of this beauty is the majestic Doolah, standing 2,000 feet above the Referring to the numerous churches, he calls the catholic and monastic rulers with which he worked covered. Bayne calls attention to the fact that he was the university of Europe, the chief university of Europe, the chief university of Europe, where scholars came to learn the literat, where scholars came to learn the wonder of it is that these remote islands. The wonder of it is that these remote islands, when been selected as, the seat of learning where have been selected, His explanation is that the students have selected because of their remoteness, or selected because of their seclusion and better protection from the threats that had drenched Ireland for centuries.

The impression is very general that Vienna is a German city yet a re-telling of the various nationalities in the city of humans as one-fourth of the total population. Vienna possesses for many students of municipal affairs all the charm of Paris, and the fort�lanes of the carries suggestions of stirring them into the public. In the years of great political changes, it stands today as a city of mysterious charm because of the unhappy fate which follows the House of Hapsburg. It delights the eye with its architectural and artistic features. It entices to close study and the physical point of view. It is, in short, well worth the common work this, a detailed description of the physical aspect of the capital, and a study of the social conditions which contribute to its peculiar distinct atmosphere. It is only this completely present years that the tourist could see. Vienna has not yet to be seen, at close range and in minute detail. Police regulations hampered the visitor at every turn, and parts of the city were shut off from inspection. Nowadays nothing is denied the well-behaved community has the ability of foreign and foreign and the court and of the citizens. Vienna has extended a welcoming hand to the world and has profited greatly thereby, for it now contains a cosmopolitan population of students, artists and musicians very like that of Paris.

I remember with great distress, one evening, on my father's return to the town, witnessed the delivery to a Southern-owner of the runaway slave Burns. Many of us can remember the thrilling experience of that unfortunate man, who had escaped to Massachusetts, hoping for freedom—an innocent criminal, whose only offense was the colour of his skin. The Fugitive Slave Law was upon the state of the state, and the law was no longer to be creature must be sent back to bondage. No greater proof could be given of the law, and the law would not be given of a people whose sentments were bitterly opposed to slavery than the giving up of this man to his father, the master; but it was done, and the slave was a knocking-up of the slave, and the soldiers of the people (with the rarest exblacks) was with this victim of the law.

To say that such results, reaching through THIRTY YEARS, are not based upon sound sense and usefulness, is an insult to the intelligence of the millions.

Smarting under reflections cast upon Arco-Americans by other speakers at the Baptist Association at being in the First Baptist church, the Rev. Charles S. Morris, D. D., of New York, startled the audience at Tuesday night's meeting by a fiery defense of his people in language which created a sensation. It was plain, but dignified, warm, but logical, altogether, as able and effective a defense of the race by one of its numbers has been heard in Boston for some time. Dr. Morris convulsed the audience by saying: "It seems to me that this Negro problem, so-called, is discussed in very much the same way that medicine is administered to a horse. We never ask the Defective Page He—Would you fancy a trip on the sea of matrimony? horse what the matter is with him; we simply diagnose his disease and make him take our prescription. What is the matter with us? Under education our skulls are gradually enlarging and our brains are all right; our hearts are in the right place, our lungs are in excellent condition, as you may see if you attend our prayer meetings. Our aliment seems to be a sort of skin disease, and it has been diagnosed as 'Epidermis Niger.' It is only one-sixteenth of an inch deep, but it is the cause of the whole 'Negro problem.' It's all over but the shouting. Hon. Joseph G. Cannon is the unanimous choice of the members for the speaker of the next House. ORDER TO EXAMINE ACCOUNTS. ETC.

P. L. GETCHELL, Mgr.? XX ST. PAUL, MINN. The Mayoralty Contest. The fight for the republican nomination for mayor at Chicago is now on and from its early beginning and high character of the aspirants the inference to be drawn is that the prospects for republican success at the polls next spring is decidedly encouraging. Two gentlemen of more than local reputation have announced themselves as candidates for the honor, and there are, doubtless others standing equally high in the community who will shy their castors into the field before the prize is finally awarded. John Maynard Harlan, the first to enter the race, is a man of unquestioned ability and force of character; a man who has always school, politics and who, when a member of the board of aldermen, was a terror to the "gray wolves" of that body. He has a host of friends and admirers, especially among the law abiding citizens, who will work night and day for his nomination and election. Age counts We have the largest Storage Capacity on basis of sales of any beer on the market. Our beer is perfectly aged. Call for Hamm's The second to enter the lists is the Hon. Graeme Stewart, whose intimate connection with the business interests of the city, undoubted integrity and honesty of purpose and whose generally conceded popularity with the masses peculiarly fit him to make not only a winning fight, but an acceptable official if he were Stewart, while always stanching Republican politics has no political entanglements that would tend to detract from his popularity as a vote getter. Mr. Stewart is a member of the National Republican Committee and his official acts have always been highly satisfactory. His name has been several times mentioned in connection with the mayoralty, but business and other engagements have heretofore deterred him fromattering the race. Now that he may be a candidate, "knowing ones" predict that he will win both at the primaries and at the election in April. Clubs are being organized in different parts of the city in the interest of both candidates and the fight from now on will be Lively. WHAT THEY GOT IN THEIR SOCKS.

The proper place for it to bend is at the "ball" of the foot—never at the instep. To make it bend at the "ball" things are necessary:—the sole must be extremely flexible while the shank or arch must be extremely rigid. Most shoes bend at the shank, thus losing their shapeiness and tiring the weak arch of the foot. That is what makes walking for most women so fatiguing. The "Dorothy Dodd" shoe has a shank that the weak arch firmly. It will not bend.
