Speech Of Emperor william Failed TO Mako
the Sensation Expected.

TnH late speech OF Emperor William, de-
livered at the banquet Of the Brandon
burg diet, was not as sensational as had
been expected. He spoke with great earn
estness, but gave utterance to no such sur
prising sentiment as that expressed by him
q year ago concerning the emigration Of all
mslcontents Of the empire. In closing he
said: 1.-THE living generation is fond OF
comparing the monarchical traditions OF the
past with the present regime, to the disad-
vantage of the latter. This is fruitless
task. Let as look back upon the splendid
past without useless regret. Let us en-.
deavor to become worthy Of our ancestors
deeds. 1 myself hope to establish state Of
things with which all Germans who desire
to be content will be content. 1 hope that
the good will OF my people will strengthen
my resolutions, although 1 know that 1t will
be impossible to satisfy everybody"

Telephone. In . storm.

A celebrated English oculist warns
the public against the use of the
telephone during q thunderstorm,
and relates an incident that occurred
to a friend of his who went to the
telephone for the purpose of ac-
quainting the central exchange at q
distant city that a storm was ap-
preaching and the instrument would
not be available until it was over.
The moment he put his ear to the
telephone flash occurred, and he
received blow of such severity that
he was sent across the small cham
ber against the opposite wall. Other
wise-beyond the temporary but very
rude shock, which he described as a
severe box on the ear-he was un-
hurt. In this respect he was more
fortunate than an artillerymau. who,
while using the telephone in the
field during some recent military
maneuvres, was struck dead by u
powerful current of electricity which
passed over the telephone. St Louis

sight that greeted the foreign commits

great Elk Valley farm at Larimore, n.

nearly nineteen square miles, 10000
acres OF which formed one unbroken,
fenceless field of wheat. To witness
this sight the distinguished spectators,
comprGng fifty foreign diplomats,
Worlds Fair commissioners and
representatives of the foreign

W orlds Fair, railroad and commercial
circles, had undertaken the discom-
forts of thousand mile journey from

showed that their expectation were
vastly more than realized. From st.
Paul through Minnesota and North
Dakota they travelled as guests of the
Great Northern railroad, and the
farther north they travelled the
warmer and more cordial was their re-
ception. Here at Larimore they
found the climax of interest and the
height of hospitality. They were
met at their train and escorted to car
riages by what seemed to be the whole
population of the little city of Lari-

into their mechanism, as If bent ON

Many paintings and statues of
several Italian periods tell the same
story as to the similarity OF human
feet, ancient and modern. Such na-
tural decorations as havo been pre-
served from the walls of Pompeii
show that the models of Pompeiian
artists had modern feet The child
Jesus is pictured in many Italian
pictures of 800. 400 and 500 years
ago as having the feet of modern
infants. The Same thing is true of
the feet in carvings, reliefs and the

Not only does art give small en-
cQuragemeut to the idea that pedal
deformities produced by footwear
have become hereditary, but the
modern infant bears testimony to
the contrary. Perhaps the feet of

seems certain to constantly grow in impor-

when they could obtain sufficient supply.
This years crop OF sugar, counting both
bcets and cane is expected to be better than
last year, but condition OF sugar cane In the
seven surplus sugar states averages 90, or but
one point higher than last year. The ngr!-
cultural department places our crop at 23!,-
500 long tons, including IL, 200 tone OF beet
sugar, against 21S, T25 tons last year But the
Cuban and West India crop is likely to be 50
reduced that with shortage of 100000 tons
iu the European crop OF beet sugar, the au-
thority quoted estimates the sugar product OF
the world ut nearly 600 tons less than last
year-a deficiency of about per cent. Prices

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation:
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in Soc and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufac.ured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not

In number of places in the East
very pretty substitute for glass is
being used in the windows and other
places where glass is commonly en-

first glance seems much like fine

and recrossed with a network of fine
black lines. Its basis is a cloth of
fine steel wire. the spaces between
the wires being about twelfth of
an inch. The wire gauZe, being
made, is dipped into pots of special

the interstlces and makes the whole

Suffrage in New Zealand.

When the state of Wyoming took the lead
in enfranchising women, who would have
have supposed that New Zealand would be
the next government to follow suitl A bill
has just passed both houses Of t:ie New Zea-
land parliament comforting full suffrage upon
women. This Is not n sudden victory. For
three successive years such q bill has passed
the House of Representatives only to be killed
in the Senate. Last year its death was caused
by an amendment providing for the vote to be
taken at home by signing n paper. In this
amendment the House refused to concur. rs
1t rendered 1t easier to influence or coerce
her vote. Under the present law there is no
inequality on account OF sex. New Zealand
has population of $4,000, and is practically
an Independent state. This victory will give
inspiration to the cause OF suffrage iu Eng
land and her colonies.
