William the COnQuerOr.

1t was on October 14th, 1866, that
William of Normandy conquered the
Saxons and gave the snobs Of the
nineteenth century chance to Drag
of the bravery of Norman ancestors
who never existed. During the past
100 years it has been fashion to talk
about people whose forefathers "came
over with the Conqueror," when, if
they really did, they were no better
than the thick-headed Old HollanderS
who founded the so-called aristocracy
of Manhattan Island. Out here in
the West man is estimated at his
personal worth. He is himself-not
the son, grandson, great grandson or
descendant Of anybody, and it is much
better so. Western people are self
reliant, manly, progressive, and their
spirit enters into everything. One of
the best examples of this progressive
spirit is the Saint Paul & Duluth
Railroad-the Duluth Short Line
which operates fast trains over a
smooth roadbed, on convenient sched-
uleS, making close connections at
handsome terminals at the Twin
Cities and Duluth, West Superior,

Is not a cosmetic in the sense in which that
term is popularity used, but permanently beau
titles. 1t creates SOFT smooth, clear velyety
skin, and by daily use gradually makes the COM
plexion several shades winter. It is a constant
protection from the effects of sun and wind and
prevents sun burn and freckles, and blackheads
will never come while you use it. Itcleanses the
face far better than soap and water, nourishes
and builds UP the skin tissues and thus pre-
vents the formation of wrinkles. 1t gives the
freshness, clearness and smoothness of skin that
you had when a little girl. Every lady, young
or old ought to use it, as it gives more youth
full appearance to any lady, and that perma-
nently. 1t contains no acid, powder or alkali,
and is as harmless as dew and as nourishing to
the skin as dew is to the flower. Price S1.O0,

TOPEKA, April 2l John W. BridenthAll
Of Neosho. candidate Of the Peoples party
for United States Senator and chairman Of
the Uoion Labor State Central committee,
has issued call for convention to be held
in this city GA May s. to thoroughly test
the cooperative system now in its inception
at Topolobampo Bay, Mexico. Mr.. Bird.
enihall has associated with him ex-senator
G. b. Hoffman of Enterprise, Kan., and il
backed by that wing of the reform political
movement in that State which believes in
the ideas advanced by Bellamy.
More than 800 persons have already been
sent from this State Topol0bsmpo bay,
where 800, COO acres of land have been pur.
chased. There are not enough people
there to give the cooperative scheme q
sufficient test, aud the reformers propose
to take colony from Topeka which shall
have enough money behind it to demon.
strate the practical workings of the theory.
In calling the convention Mr.. Bridenthall
says;
81 have addressed this communication to
the old guard. with the hope that they who
in ears past have devoted their time, their
means and their talent TO the cause Of polit-
icSl reform without any hope Of reward,
might assist in making practical demon
stration of the fact ths. cooperation 10 the
key to a proper solution Of the industrial
problem, and thereby open the way for
adoption throughout our entire county"
Mr.. Briderthsl consulted with the leaders
in the Citizens Alliance before calling this
convention. In an Interview today he said
at Is difficult matter to induce people to
believe that q plan 30 much at variance
with our present Industrial 81 stem is prsc.
ticable, but we have ia Kansas enough men
who have confidence in the cooperative
system to test it. A colony where me.
chanics, laborers and farmers may enjoy
the full fruits Of their labor free from
rent, taxes, interest sounds Usopian, but
the experiment has already proceeded far
enough to convince rs of its ultimate sue
