Requisites of the Stage.

One may say, 1.-THE requisites of sue
cess on the stage are youth, health, good
Evolutionary talents and practiced skill,
good looks and dramatic instinct. " Then
1t could be replied that if person pos
sessed this combination he or she need
give himself or herself no further con-
Germ as to success. 1t is absolutely Sc
cure-as secure as an income from
$500, 900 of government bonds, and that
to person just starting out on a stage
career and anxious to make good liv-
ing out of it such preliminary condi-
tons are as remote as the big bank bal
ance to the new beginner in commercial
business.
1t is really the case that most of the
conditions that qualify for stage sue
cess have to be worked for. This sort
Of instruction may not be impaired by
professional teachers at so much les
son, but it proceeds from teachers all
the same, whether voluntary or invol-
untary, since all human beings are con-
tinually not only receiving but giving
lessons.-Rose Coghldn.

Began in a Humble Way.

A conspicuous figure on the streets OF
Pittsburg is II tall, dignified looking col
ored man who dresses in long coat and
high hat, both of brilliant red. Every bit
of available space on his outer garments
is emblazoned with announcements, paint
ed in white letters, of astonishing bargains
in wearing apparel. That he feels the i'm
portance of his position is evident, not
only from the self satisfied smile he wears,
but also from an incident which occurred
yesterday. In his rambles about the streets
he stopped to look at gang of men who
were excavating in order to repair water
pipe. "Look at Them he said, turning
to friend who was with him. "That's
just the way got my start in life" Sew
eral of the workmen looked up at the sand
witch man, wondering, evidently, how they
could find encouragement in the result OF
his experience Putsburg Dispatch.

1t is only within the last few years that it
has been possible for an inexperienced per-
son to dye black that would not crock,
fade, or wash out. Even mill.dyed black
goods were rarely absolutely fast.
The advent of three diamond dye fast
colors-for wool, for cotton, and for silk and
feathers-has changed all this. Now, with
ten-cent package of one OF these dyes, the
first trial gives perfect success. The direc-
tons on the packages are so plain and
simple that even a child can get better re.
suits than the experienced dyer could few
years ago.
The enormous quantity of these fast black
diamond dyes sold every year shows how
popular they are and what perfect satisfac.
ton they give. Some of the larger whole
sale druggists order 5000 packages at one
time, and even then they soon have to order
fresh supplies.
The prevailing fashion for black stock
ings, feathers, gowns and cloaks is I'M
doubleday responsible for some of this large
sale, but the fact that anything can be col
ored with diamond dyes a black that will
not crock or fade explains their almost uni
versal use.
The economy of these dyes is shown by
the fact that package of the fast stocking
black for cotton will dye five pairs of cotton
oboChlhSo llCI d pdChdS6 VI bue
black for silk and feathers will dye ten
feathers a glossy color, and a package Of
the fast black for wool will dye from one to
two pounds of wooden goods.
The peculiar way in which the diamond
dye fast blacks are made gives them a great
superiority over all other methods of home
dyeing.
There are some forty other colors of
diamond dyes, each of which is thoroughly
reliable, and az superior to limitations as
sunlight is to moonlight.

WHY HOOPS WNs.-President Lincoln
said, " You cannot fool the people a second
time" They are too quick to recognize
real merit or lack of it, and cling only to
those things which they find to be what is
claimed for them. 1t is especially crafty
ing that the sale of Hoods Sarsaparilla in
creases most rapidly in those sections where
it is best known. The inference is plain.
Hoods Sarsaparilla has proven that It pos
sesses genuine merit. 1t maintains high
standard, which others cannot even ap-
proach. 1t is the peoples favorite blood
purifying and building up medicine, and is
more popular this year than ever before.
All this because Hoods cures.

THERE is considerable hard feeling be-

most paralyzed Swiss exports. The federal

countries; otherwise the council advocated
arbitration. Italy declined. The council
is now discussing what course it shall pur-
