mended me to try Ayers Pills. had little

very much better, and two boxes cured me.

Of the Security Bank and bought 1t. He i'm
proved it. extended the lines and so managed
1t that he was soon able TO get hold of the ST.
Paul street car lines as we'll. and he now prac-
tically owns the street car lines of the
two cities. He has made his system the
best, it is said. in the United States. and his
credit is such that at the time of the Barring
failure he was able to raise So, 500, 900 in New
York at a low rate of interest. HIS street car
lines were changed from horse cars to electric
twin twelve months and he has $50 miles of track
His franchise of the two cities is an Exclusive one
and it runs. am told. for long term of years.
These car lines have immense shops here aud
power houses covering acres. They can make
everything connected with an electric car line,
and it will not be surprising if they eventually
add great manufacturing car industry to their
business. MIR. Lowry is eminently fitted for
doing this. He has the best of business brains
and his credit is such that he can get any rea-
sonable number of millions at per cent.
Tom Lowry is a man of strong friendships
He as well known in New York and Washing
ton rs he is here. He was cne OF the few men
who had access to Blaine at all times. and he
largely aided Senator Wa.hburn IN tiding over
the financial troubles in which he was involved
at the time of MS election to the Senate. He is
a good story teller and il is said that he knows
Shakespeare by heart and can repeat Paradise
Lost" from beginning TO end. He has beauti-
ful wife and very bright family. j am told
that he had fiery red head as boy, though his
hair is now a beautiful brown and his whiskers
are almost black. Two of his girls have red
hair. The youngest of these was only five
wears old when her little baby brother was
born. She saw tie bald-headed baby and that
night they say she o,ed her PRAYER as follows:
please. God. bless baby brother, but don t
let him have red hair. We have enough red
heads IL this family alreadv.

wrapped IN ia his business and goes at times
from lumber camp to lumber camp, taking pot
luck with mis- men ard having a thorough
knowledge of every detail Of his business. He
Is a man OF great ability. full of common sense

SOME AisNEsoTA MANSIONS.
I wish l could take you into the houses Of
these rich men of the northwest They are
as fine as those Of the money kings OF New
York or Boston. and many of them will rank
with the Oldest houses OF Europe in their artls-
tic furnishing. There is TODAY more art dis
played in the big business blocks and in the
fne residences Of So. Paul and Minneapolis
than You will find in those of Boston, Cleve-
land or Cincinnati. and money is shoveied out
here on architecture. art. and might say re-
jigion as well. The finest Young Mems Chris
tan Association building in the world is here
The Minneapolis club has finer quarters than
any club in Washington city, and there are q
Aumber OF million dollar business blocks
here which have more fine marbles and
Roman mosaic work than the cathedral of
ST. Marks ut Venice. These men have
made their money quickly and they spend
It freely. Their homes are full of
beautiful things from all over the world. Take,
for instance, that Of Mr.. Thomas Lowry, the
street railway millionaire Of Minneapolis. It's
Q big old-fashioned marsard house Of about
twenty rooms, which are packed with art treas
ures. Old Gobelin tapestries, some Of which
would carpet a small parlor. hang upon the
walls. Oriental rugs, which Tom Lowry
bought in Egypt, lie upon the foors, and fine
paintings Of the great modern painters cover
the walls. Rare Sevres vases stand on the
mantels, and pieces of really fine japanese
art and of rare East Indian workmanship are
scattered here and there about the rooms The
house is. IN fact. q museum of curios, but they
have been well selected and arranged that it

AN EVENING GOWN OF CREPE.

A Pretty Fancy Which Encourages Gree
and Empire Modes.
As long as the fancy for crepon reigns styles
which display its possibilities in draping and
in clinging to the figure with graceful persist
ency will not be banished.
We have had the empire with us for many
moons, but it is not yet overthrown; it has
been saved by gauzy prete1ts. The Greek rule
had never become tyrannous, for only tho most
artistic and pensive maidens posed in Greek
gowns for the eyes Of man. But artistic and
pensive maidens, to say nothing Of others, will
continue to pose during the dog days.
