The American Dorothy Tennant, as she is called to distinguish her from her cousins, was born in a small town had a season in society, and then, wanting a change of environment, she made up her mind to go on the stage. She was young and beautiful, and she was not afraid, so that more natural. When she was engaged to play the part of Alice Langham in "Soldiers of Fortune" her manager exclaimed that he had made discovery. And the critics all agreed. It was in "Soldiers of Fortune" that the American Dorothy Tennant may be said to have made her theoretical debut. Since her first professional appearance it has been one continued success. ```markdown ``` THE grammatic success being assured from the start.

Miss Harriette Rockefeller Woods, a native of New York and national fame, has chosen the lyric instead of the dramatic stage as the beat and most congenial way of devoting her life to music. She suited, both by birth and her own natural endowment of song. On her father's side Miss Woods is an old and most highly respected Philadelphia Quaker family. Entertained by drawing rooms at Newport and in New York and Philadelphia paved the way for broader one and artistic manner of expression.

Miss Frances Rawle Pemberton chose the only channel through which her finely attuned artistic nature could naturally be youngest and most divinely fair of the four beautiful Pemberton sisters, who one after another have budded and grown into a set.

Continued From Seventh Column. When a Southern man is loved by a woman, he thinks it is his mete, his just man, he makes it suspicious. He wonders what she wants. To His Profession. The Southern woman is jealous of nothing except the day's work. She does not want him to be away from her, and, makes works too hard, she grows softly tearful. The Northern woman, on the other hand, is jealous of that he is "steady", which means that he works, every day in the year. This keeps the professional man busy, but he must be of his strength. But the professional man married to a "Way Down In Dixie" girl is a Sampler of his strength. He is not allowed to work and he must not practice his profession in his books; must not do much thinking. He must sit on the veranda and sip sorbet. Or canibus corn cake at the 5 clocks. Let the professional man marry a New Yorker. He should have his profession. She expect him to work early and late; she expects him to earn money. She expects him to himself and for her; she expects new carpets, new dresses and a cook. She urges him to help her with the money to him that she can spend the money as fast as he can earn it. She expects him to inherit her wife gets very thin and very pearly, very hollow chested and very hollow eyed. She succeeds. And this is reward enough. When not busy working he must watch a lot. The Norwegian woman first fills just a little. The Southern woman does her flirting before she is married; the Norwegian woman adds spice and keeps a man guessing. But she makes a man of the professional man and his success, and his picture is unseen outside him, and his picture is in all the papers. He can hold office if he wants to do so, or he can earn money on the second space.

NEW YORK, January 17.—Some men seem to have been born married. Some have been married after patient courtship, the woman they love. Some have marriage thrust upon them. The professional man does not belong to any of these classes. He must marry, not the woman he loves, but the woman who loves him. Yet the professional man, no matter whom he marries, is wedded to the girl of his dreams. From time to time he dreams out a new life; and, then, he is would become a virgory wife to try hard from the straight and narrow path as bests a professional man and a genius—she would be transformed into a tenacious man. No I cannot marry the girl I love. But I can remember her. I will marry the girl I do not love and forget her. The professional man who marries Southern girl says goodbye to his profession. She will not let him work. He is a man of imagination, and, no matter what sort of a woman he may marry, he is not a woman of imagination, or dead, real or imaginary, near at hand, seated on the North Pole. The professional man begins to look for a woman who loves him. She should admire him thoroughly, and in ways, his income and his manner of spending it, should all be agreeable to her. The professional man should reason this way: "I know I am a very mortal man, full of weakness, a fully man, neither am I a business man, I live by my brains; and if my supply of brains give out, I have nothing." This being the case I must choose a woman who is satisfied with something or nothing. She must be one who will love me, when I have my brains; and will love me when my brains fall and my income goes. "I would like," reasons the professional man, would be a bad plan. She does not love me enough. She is extravagant, petulant, cool and adorable but, when she feels like it. "Were I to forget to come home she EIGHING LASTS. A Miss Frances Rawle Pemberton, In whose veins flows the bluest blood of the Philadelphia sieet. THE LADY OF THE ROOM DON'T MARRY A GIRL WHO LOOKS AT YOU DISDAINFULLY, LIKE THIS.

DON'T MARRY A GIRL WHO LOOKS "or in a sunny little street, in a sunny little house, there lives a woman who will love me always, no matter what I do. This is the girl who loves me. I will wed him. If we gave bread and cheese for dinner she will think them very fine served up with cheese and cheese for cheese fries she will still hold out. She will not miss the bread and cheese." The Girl Who Loves You. The professional man must select a dish. When things do not go right and his brow is cloudy the girl who loves him hover around like a dear little angel; when he go just right she will still be hovering. She will sit and look at him as though she loved him—which she does. The other girl, the capricious fascinator will toss her heart to the reader she reads when she ought to talk to him and laughs when she ought to cry. The professional man ruins his career when he marries the girl he loves. He loves her and it makes him happy. He loves her and it makes him and to dare; and he sits in her gaze, trembling lest he do something she will not like. His love makes him a slave. He loves him and it makes him and genius. Geniuses get moody sometimes and irritable at others. They are always coming; and they are particular at meals. Unless a woman is very much in love she will not stand these and there is trouble. There would be fewer unhappy marriages himself away from the woman he loves marry the woman who loves him and set him alight. It will all be the same after ten years, whether he married the girl he loved him, or married the girl he saved his life, he can't tell which he did. The professional man should not marry him, because all the others, will not make him a good wife. It is very seldom that the professional man can get the Southern girl to marry $2.40 PER YEAR. I a Man Marry Love With Him and Who Is Willing Bread and Cheese as Long as the Married, the Northern Girl After- hern Girl Wants the Money. The southern girl loves money in a sweetheart and the professional man has not got it. He may get her by his hair but within a month he will be sorry he did.

There are there are only six successful professional men. The others came North where they would not be coddled; and, with teeth set, they climbed a rugged path that leads to professional success. Marrying a Southern Girl. The Southern girl is peculiar in that she does her flirting before marriage. The Southern girl says that she wants a man with money; a man with good looks; a woman with good speech; a man who knows how to make a bow. But she does not care how he looks, whether blonde or brunette. When a man comes wooing a Southern girl she says to herself, "She has a soft speech?" "Is he as nice asapa?" "Single 'Not' would ruin the whole combination and the Southern girl will decide that she cannot leave home, getting herself, and if you want to get her, you have got to be an expert at the game. Of pretending, you go along pretty well. And unless you persuade her that your soul is a snow-white sheet, it is all day with you. He can make a bow and whisper words in a gentle manner. As for his soul, he can paint it snow-white order. But his trouble comes after they are married. He has a wife who loves him From the minute the Southern 'girl says "I will," and "I do," from that minute she is transformed from a critical miss into an adoring matron. "The Southern man is loved with an in- terest. He is a man of great smith. He would need a Knight's sword that would be worth a thousand dollars." Continued in Fourth Column. AVE YOU READ THE APPEAL?

We have just received the "Souvenir Number" of the Seattle Republican, issued January 9th, consisting of twenty pages and a four paged illuminated cover, printed on white enamel paper. It is one of the most creditable productions we have seen, and is entirely different from anything usually offered by an Afro-American paper. The environment of Brother Cayton is questionably unlike that of other publishers which makes his artistic up-to-date issue possible. However, if the spirit of conception, progress, push and perseverance were not in the man, we would not have enjoyed the ocular, tangible evidence thereof. Many years ago THE APPEAL issued a 40-page paper, which was the biggest thing ever produced by an Afro-American paper. It contained over three hundred illustrations, which were the best available at that time, some thirteen years ago, but it was not to be compared with the issue of Brother Cayton's for artistic illustration. We extend congratulations to Brother Cayton and hope he may long continue to enjoy the era of prosperity which seems to surround him. He deserves it. The receivers of the defunct Capital Savings Bank of Washington, D. C. ```markdown ``` have made their first report, and at their request an examination of the bank's books will be made by an official bank examiner. They set forth in the report that "the investigation by the receivers has so far progressed as to enable them to say that the condition of the affairs of the bank is most unsatisfactory and discouraging. The notes representing loans are in most instances of very doubtful value. The real estate is heavily incumbered, and in a number of instances foreclosures are imminent." The indebtedness of the bank is over $100,000. In their report the receivers' note the collection of $601. The Southern disfranchisement schemes are marching Northward and have reached Missouri, Representative Brown of the legislature of that state has introduced a concurrent resolution to the effect that at the next general election it shall be submitted to the voters that no person shall be allowed to vote in Missouri unless he can read and write the English language. the resolution is intended to usfranchise Afro-Americans, but unless it is amended it will disfranchise about as many whites as blacks. It will probably be amended on the Louisiana plan, making an exception to those whose grandfathers were voters.

No barriers were raised to prevent his social or civil advancement. Many of the most distinguished Russians of today are the sons of serfs. Since the emancipation of the Afro-American in this country every conceivable obstacle has been placed in his way by the Southern caucasians. And yet, "We's risin'." What a howl would old bentillman have raised had an Afro-American done just what his nephew has done—killed a white man—and the usual lynching had not yet, taken place. We are opposed to lynching on general principles, but we wouldn't kick if the disreputable lieutenant governor was administered a dose of his own medi- The appointment of an Afro-American assistant attorney at Boston brings to mind that, in Chicago, we have an Afro-American assistant states attorney, an Afro-American assistant county attorney and an Afro-American assistant to the corporation counsel. No objection to their appointments were ever made. Now there's more trouble down South. L. J. Pernas was recently appointed postmaster of Bay St. Louis, Miss., an aristocratic suburb of New Orleans, La. Mr. Pernas was strongly indorsed by Paul Capdeville, the Democratic mayor of New Orleans, and the despatch says: "The indignant white people are greatly excited." Some Afro-Americans held a meeting in Washington recently established a "Civil Liberty Party" and indorsed the course of Senator Pritchard who has done all in his power to deprive the race of its liberties. Some people do not deserve the rights they enjoy. An Afro-American who recently visited the president and asked him to pension ex-slaves, claims that he controls 320,000 votes. Judging from the interviews given out by the distinguished gentleman it is quite likely that he does not control his own vote. Editor William Calvin Chase of the Washington Bee is out in a letter to the Star, in which he claims that more intelligent and best educated Afro-Americans are to be found in the South. The Atlanta Constitution acknowledges that there are several millions of desirable worthy Afro-Americans in the South. If this be true why do not the Southern people treat them fairly? The Atlanta Constitution has discovered an ideal Afro-American. He is the Alabama man who refused a federal office to look after the affairs of his old mistress. Mirabile dictu! The appointment of Walter S. Standifer to be postmaster at Gadsen, Ala., is regarded as another victory for the "Black and Tan" Republicans. Alexandre Dumas Atkins, the only Afro-American who has ever acted in the capacity of instructor in Princeton University is dead. The mind which ignores all else but noble thoughts is the only way in life's progress.

Webster's unfortunate financial complications have been made to the extent of the data that it is really luminous to find out, after perusing these letters, that the man who stood for the commercial interests of how many of the men were and ability possessed sound business sense, and would have been one of the wealthiest men of his day had to be led to the public weal.

These letters show that Mr. Webster, conscious of his extravagance, has always been so much needed at that critical time in the country's history, deliberately consecrated himself to the public weal in almost total effacement. It is interesting to note in view of the 1819 time, eventuating from the Spanish American war, that Mr. Webster took the American constitution and an ultimate construction must have cion respecting the extent of its own power. In a letter to Samuel N. Sweet the authorship of the imaginary Speech of Samuel Adams in the Revolutionary Congress, is referred to Washington, D. C., Dec. 31, 1819. Dear Sir: I have had very frequent occurrences to which you propose to me in your letter of the 26th of this month. The speech of the Congress of the Revolution sat with closed doors, and there is no report of the Declaration of Independence. We only know the measure with his usual power and favor. In a letter written from Philadelphia, made, he said it was an event which would be celebrated in time to come by the death hearing, and on the day of his death hearing, and being told that it was the 4th of July, and that the bells claimed, "Independence forever!" These expressions were used in composing the speeches of his sentiments, and his manner of speech and elocation. All the rest is mine. It must not be supposed that Mr. Webb did not find time from his job. He did not find time from his job. His letters show that he was a sportsman—want in for hunting and fishing with seas and rivers, but not in the mountains, but studied them, and knew their history, and he was quite as enthusiastic about them as the savior: "Probably nothing is so characteristic of the man who is a hunter, a fisherman, a abbot, a manumanness, which tells of the vast literature, which tells of the vast wandering over the fields of thought, found alluring themes on every side. The man who was the physical energy—the tireless patience and the sacrifices of the world that he was willing to endure, the details were wanting. He loved too well to feel his power over men, and to be able to make a giant. He could put forth a giant's strength for an hour or a day, but he had no experience in the assurance of the writer of literary monographs. --- STORIES OF AUTHORS' LOVES. Stories of Authors' Loves. By Clara E. Laughlin. With forty-five photographs and duogravure reproductions of portraits and views. Two volumes. Pp. 310. $3.00a. Philadelphia: J. B. Lippincott Company. In her foreword, Miss Laughlin says: "Interest in the heart affairs of men and women who wrote is an easily understandable curiosity. In large part, they created the traditions of romance, those men and women; their written ideals of love have set the standard for the majority, have sent young blood (and off-times blood not so young) coursing through the veins in a sweet current have filled young carts (and of times hearts more young) with beating desire to love to be loved, to bear and forbear, give and forgive in love's name. It is only natural that these young hearts and hearts that once were young should wish to know in what manner those men and women realized their own ideals. "To be a wife, a real true wife, to any man, is to be a true companion—a mission calling for the most love inspired and alertly intelligent gifts," she wrote. "All this being true of the wife of any man, it is twice true of the wife of a woman, it is twice true of the woman so many women have failed in this undertaking; when one comes to think first, is the peaceful love of Tennison. First is the peaceful love of Tennison. We can think it was to his first love, Eleanor, the Princess; the Princesses; the Princesses only cleav to his and worship her by names of noble deeds. Until they win her; for indeed I know that is the malden passion for a maid Not only to keep down the base in man, but to keep down the base in man, and courtliness and the desire of fame.

Storer Clouston, $1.50. New York: Harper & Brothers. 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 One, 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 my royalty an adherent of a lightful King of France. 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 heart of action. I was so expreyant of intrigues. Now, desire only my liberty and a little public attention as possible. I commend this personal experience to all conspirators." M. D'Haricot encounters an English man in a marriage with him, "self-repressed, self-restrained and reflicent," and after many varied attempts to join a connoisseur which resulted only in "of yes" or "no," accompanied by that "of yes" or "no," stare. Later on I discovered that this generally means nothing, and is in fact, when each Englishman; carried his "Knuckle-duster" (a weapon use* in the knuckle-duster) when each Englishman; carried his "Knuckle-duster" (a weapon use* in the knuckle-duster) when each bor's attention was diverted, is. thanks to this peculiarity, that they now find themselves in possession of so large a portion of the globe, but the surviving stare is not a reassuring spectacle. Before one proceeds very far into the volume of the book, the time has been given to the author's sketches of English literature, the master hand of his artist capable of seeing the subject of the most pathetic situations, and depicting them with a skill which puts the author only 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 as the call with it and is ribby of the immortal combat in which Bob Acres found himself involved. Some of the scenes and incidents of the story are well known. There are well-known. Aboard, and are well capable of eliciting the merry ha! ha! from anyone, how-the grave or pessimistic. The immemorial many situations through which D'Haricot passes, and which are related with such a charming simplicity of style and literary adroiness—and the "Clouton" of the story, a very desirable addition to the library of any one.

The Memoirs of a Contemporary American writer with regret that she had not written the volume is profusely illustrated with pictures of the great men of the period, the young men of the period, the age of fifty years discloses a face of remarkable strength—not unlike that of the young men of the period she possesses in a marked degree. Pichurgh, the 'Vanquiser of Holland,' was a man of great meanor, cautious in his speech in spite of the frankness he affected, and much Of General Moreau, the masterful strategist and fighter that he was not given the chance to play, he was one of all the world could not have made his mark in the war, and devoted friend to those whom he had served. He was the man who got the shattered remains of the army together. At the head of twenty-five men, he marched in army of four times that number and held the siege of the city, defying only step by step. He garrisoned all the fortresses, beat the enemy and strategy rendered their numerical superiority of no especial gallant" in Germany she rode in a cavalry charge and was wounded. Just before this battle she wrote a very interesting sketch of the siege, "Had I been less well acquainted with Ney's character the strange hostility and its sense of duty would be an imbalance to sketch this great soul, one of the most generous and loyal natures ever found. Under manners which were at most docile of hearts." "Ney has been caluminated by persons designing him into ideal upon premeditated building in lying was utterly incomprehensible and his mind which always distinguished him, if he went so far as to forget his obligatory opinion that condemned the Bourbon that he saw the welfare of his country. The Great Corsican himself is told by his friend, who describes a flirtation which he carried on describes a flirtation which he carried on with which is infinitely more interesting than with highly improbable stories told of Napoleon. The battle of Waterloo to which she was an eye witness is described with the people of the peoples and places which figured in the rise and fall of the career of the chief caluminator in the history of the world.

The author says that the book is in place: "It has been thought better to devote as much consideration as possible to the most noted of the works rather than to speak more briefly of many. In this way it is hoped that the book may be valuable both for travelers, who wish to have something more than mere guide-book information of the great treasures of Rome, and for the amateur who has not sufficient knowledge to connect the many ordeal in real works necessary for a thorough art training." It would be impossible to overestimate the importance of the subject of this book as it was not to be identified as a preformed and a mightest works, the terrific Last Judgment. The monumental Prophets and Sibyls of the Sistine, the Hapaz and Rama, the S库拉, the sublimate compositions, the great frescoes of the Stanzae, and the exquisite arabesques of the Hogoth. Miss. Potter describes of all these and the Borgia apartment, the tapestries, the sculpture galleries and the pinacotec, the book of the series of the statues, plans of the palace, historical details, a bibliography and an index of names. Miss. Potter is already well known by her interesting works upon art and this her latest and most important book will be received with pleasure by those interested in the art of the world. THE PHILOSOPHY OF DESPAIR. The Philosophy of Despair. By David Starr Jordan, 75c. San Francisco. Elders Shortland. The "Philosophy of Despair," by David Starr Jordan is one of the very interesting and notable books of the best in the world. It is based on thinks of the grace and flow of Ruskin not simply because of the style but because it possesses all the depth and lucidity of Ruskin. Miss. of the统一philosophy of the progress of the race is a mere illusion. There is no progress, only adaptation. Every creature must fit it itself to its envy to do so. It is the best for the same reason that the river fits its bed. Life is only possible under the rare conditions in which life is not In this volume the learned author says he has never been a novel as to almost convince one that there is something "new under the sun." He has written about the masses. The simplicity of style and freedom from literary convention puts the book within the reach of all understandings. **OLD PLANET DAYS** **OLD PLANET DAYS**.

The process of being a compensation besties those of achievement. He has time to himself for his wife is busy. He can sit in his office at night, with only the spectres of the day's work. He is the most of the day's work of the most of the day's work he does not own, and of the sweet-faced adoring girl who sits outside the school house. He follows the big chubby faced replicas play around her. The Land of His Dreams. It is always quiet in the land of his dreams, always gently choired with birds always carpeted with grass and the blue away from fair and warm in that sweet land of the midnight day-dream. But the professional man is happy in his Northern marriage, happy in getting a woman who has a pair of the spurs of him; happy in winning the name and the fame which he craved; happy in finding the goal which all professional men set out to get; happy in his ambition. The professional man is the unhappiest man in the world. He is a creature of whims and of temperament, of the weather and of his neighbors. The professional man is never happy unless he has something to be unhappy. He never happy unless he is very�������. He has glad spells but he does not enjoy them, he has no interest in worry. He has worrying spells but he does not enjoy them for in thinks things the Professional man never like life, he does not like worry. He is satisfied. It is his penalty for being ambitious, for ambition is the one thing. And he needs a wife who can keep him busy, for ambition needs one who that he needs a wife who is worried; who is so unhappy that he dare not brood on her, so she needs to so selfish, so demanding, so extravagant and so hysterical that he will forget all please her. Northern girl will try to all this role. She will keep him jumping, but she, too, has her compensations, in the upper story and goes to pieces in her and be the man of the family. What a Wife Can Do. The Northern girl will earn the family living and pretend she likes it. She will suddenly appear before the astonished gaze of the collapsed professional man as a seraph, hitherto thoroughly disguised. But now, disguised no more, he sees her in her true angelic role. She will go to boarding, or take in boarders, and do either with a sweet smile. She will go out sewing or take it in. She will turn tallor, milliner, laundress, carpenter, sign painter or blacksmith, and do it with credit. She will surround the poor, tired professional man with all the luxuries of life, until with hope and pitcher beside him, and book it hand, he can sit and watch the erstwhile pampered woman at work making the not-ball. You take your choice if you are a woman. You don't marry the girl you love. But don't marry the girl you love. You will love some other woman any- way. You will professional man do.

"A Little Outcast," which has been making a sort of royal progress into the country, begins a week's engagement at the Grand Opera House, which has made a record which is tremendously complimentary and is one of the most conspicuous successes of the season. Mr. Geo. E. Gill, one of the owners, practically adopted "A Little Outcast" at the start, and the result of his success, the piece has made. Mr. Gill, who learned his profession in the severe old school of England, has never ceased in his persistent invention, his watchful instinct of comedy or ardent interest in the piece, has her forgotten to strengthen and general beautifying of the ensembles, and the result is gratifying. The story is a fascinating one of New York City, and carries the scenes with swift action, from exclusive mansions to crime-hunted villains with thrilling climaxes and unique situations. There is a wealth or gorgeous scenery, the most prominent store pictures being one of Five Points, Cooper Union, a brilliant Chinese restaurant, with gorgeous Oriental draperies and smokers, a fashionable woman's private apartments, and the great are scene, which is a revelation to American theatre-goers.

They will cross swords Monday evening in Minneapolis. Being as it is an argument between the foremost swordmen of the Northwest, it will be the greatest exhibition of fencing ever seen in this part of the country. It will be the largest exhibition of the partnership of the Northwest, for the past ten years these two creeds in the royal art of fencing have met and defeated local and visiting swordmen, and each has earned for himself an enviable record in the handling of swordsmanship. The Association of Fencers will govern the contest. The referee will be George Heilzt, one of Chicago's best known fencing masters, and prominent as an instructor throughout the country. He will be the credit innumerable victories with experts. Theo. L. Hays, manager of the Grand Opera House, who has been for years a fencing enthusiast, and who has in the past appeared as principal in several public fencing contests, will manage the mutual consent of each contestant. Friends of both contestants are confident of their ability to win. The fact that each man will be in the pink of condition will be sufficient to bring out the many fencing enthusiasts of the two cities.

ORPHAN ASYLUM Sallie—What is an orfling asylum, Horatio? Horatio—It's a place for kids what's shy on ancestors, see? THE LOVE OF A WOMAN in doing so is the Afro-American Council and its future well-being, as the one organization of the race whose primal object is the preservation and proper defense of the civil and political rights. My best thought, sympathy and effort have been devoted, during the past twelve years,—dating from the organization of the National Afro-American League, at Chicago, January 15, 1890, to the paramount necessity of education and live up to this principle and defense of civil rights and mutual interests. Effective organization is the only supreme power in modern society. The greatest misfortune of the race has been its refusal to recognize and live up to this principle. We have depended too much upon others to do for us what we could and should do for ourselves. Mankind is selfish by nature and the enforced conditions of social life; and the man or men who neglect their own interests will have to busy to attend to them for them. What is everybody's business is nobody's business, is a faithful old saw. The main difficulty with and drawback to the National Afro-American Council today is that the organization has to do its own organization. The masses of the people do not belong to it or support it with their sympathy and money. Its annual sympathy and delegates are represented business and professional interests, who are willing to pay $5 for participation in the organization and who cease to be active members when the organization adjoins sine die. The official board of the organization really constitutes the only membership of the National Council from the adjustment of one member of another; with the exception, of course, of the state council in California, which has changed from the Afro-American League of California to the Afro-American Council of California at a state convention held since the adjournment of the last August. No organization constituted as the National Afro-American Council is today, as to its basic membership, can do the important work mapped out by its founders and expected by the people larger than itself, the latter will be approved by the next annual convention, and hoping that it will result in a basic membership of the council, and basing my action primarily on Article VI of the plan of state organization of the constitution of the council, I submit the following plan of local organization: 1. Ten persons shall be competent to organize a local council circle to be offered as provided for in Article II of the by-laws for local organization the local council to ten persons, such local circle to ten persons, such local circle to be entitled to one delegate in state conventions upon payment of assessment provided in Article XVIII of plan of state organization and to one delegate in annual National Council conventions upon payment of tax assessment in Article III section 2.

Women may organize a state council, as provided by Article IX of the national constitution. I sincerely hope, in every community where there are ten persons congenial to each other and interested in the race, will all once organize a local council circle. I are reasonably certain that the women of the race will take hold of the work. When the council meets next year at Louisville there should be at least five hundred circles reported and represented.

Grateful Woman Gives Elevator Boy a City Lot. Sioux City, Iowa. Jan. 21.—Because of the heroic act of Roy Kline, an elevator boy in the Security Department, a woman seventy-five years old, from being crushed to death last summer, the woman has just filed a deed here conveying a handsome lot in Springdale addition to the young man. The deed states that the conveyance is made "in consideration of the impending death of the griever to save the life of the grantor in an elevator accident, the receipt of which brave and hmane气气 is hereby gratefully acknowledged." The woman's skirts in the door of the cage last summer and while the elevator descended, permitting her skirts to be torn off, but saving her from being crushed against the top of the cage. A SYMPOSIUM ON L1AR$ The following symposium on "Liar" is worth reading, even if it fails to do the subject complete justice: The liar whom the editor hates worst of all is th. man, who, when duned all by his subscription, says he received two or three copies during the year, and refuses to pay—Clarksville Graphite. Next to, if not above this one, the editor hates a liar who takes the paper seven or eight years, and when finally cornered for settlement, says he never ordered the paper at all—praying. But the worst liar of the whole outfit is the man who takes the paper several years; then moves away without paying or saying anything about it, and yet he is an honest man—Elsbury Advance. Brehren, you will fail short of the truth that the worst liar in the lot is the editor who publishes the obituary of these aforesaid liars and intimates that they have gone to heaven—Plymouth Independent. Keeping Up War's Memories. Ladysmith is preparing to make herself another such center for the historic scenes around her as Brussels is for Waterloo. A regular coach service, it seems, is to be organized to Spion Kop, and when the passengers have walked over the fatal summit they will find refreshment and lodging at a "Spion Kop Hotel" which is to be built forthwith on Three-Tree Hill. Fish at 21,000 Feet The statistician has been at work again. On the arrival of the United States Fish Commission steamship Albatross, which recently explored the ocean to a depth of 23,000 feet, the man of figures has calculated that the pressure of water is so great at that depth that a fish ten feet in length must support a weight equal to a large building. About the Super Ailing "Do you think that our civilization tends to lengthen men's lives?" "I don't know about that," answered the practical man; "but, with the increased facilities for travel and communication, a man can come preen near living twice as much in a given year as he used to." -Washington Star.

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 shapeliness 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 supports the weak arch firmly. It will not bend. The method of sewing the shank is different from the ordinary—it is sewn through and through—making a strong, firm shank than cannot be obtained any other way.
