TOUR ABOUT TOWN

1t is now several years since / first
met Prof. Carpenter, who conducted
the hypnotic experiments at the Opera
House last week. Albert E. Carpenter
is now an old man, but the careful life
he has led is responsible for the re-
markable vigor he possesses. When
Prof. Carpenter first appeared before
the public, there was no such thing as
hypnotism, power of this kind was
known as mesmerism. During his
career. Mr.. Carpenter has travelled
from the Atlantic to the Pacific. His
! longest consecutive run was In the Ma
sonic Temple, New York, and lasted
l6O nights. He was also popular in
Mexico, remaining so nights. The pro-
fessor has accumulated a moderate for
tune and resides at Stanhope Place,
Roxbury, Mass He spends his SUM
mers at his beautiful summer home at
South Addison, Maine. His success is
due in great measure to his belief in
amusing, rather than attempting i'm
possibilities. In this respect he differs
from Santanelli, and many others. 1t
Is claimed that he has cured many
cases of confirmed drunkards, and
slaves to various narcotics have not re-
| covered their desire for drugs after his
treatment. OF kindly disposition and
with a fondness for humor, the pro-
fessor has friends in all parts Of the
country.
The order of the Postmas ter General
for the sale OF postage stamps by the
letter carriers Is all right, but / don't
envy the carriers their jobs under the
new rules. Imagine how pleasant it
will be Tor carrier to stop and change
a S5-bill in order TO sell 2-cent stamp,
on a stormy day especially.

Christians shopping is now on in
earnest. Our merchants have stocked

ETY. that is offered will, no doubt, serve
as magnet to draw the patronage Of

Valley villages and the Attlehoros.

THE BETHEL LITERARY.
AN EXCITING TIME.-MR. GEORGE {
SMITH CREATES A SENSATION.

AN EXCITING TIME.-MR. GEORGE c
SMITH CREATES A SENSATION.
The Bethel Literary and Historica
Association met on last Tuesday even
ing as usual.
Mr.. Clark was in the chair and intro
duced Mr.. Lewis H. Douglass, who
read a paper entitled "Have we
cause"
Upon the platform were seated Hon.
B. K. Bruce and the marked" Con.
gress.
The moment the marked Congress
was invited to seat upon the platform
beside Mr.. Bruce, he Immediately
moved TO the other side.
hr. c. B. Purvis, in his usual philo
sophical manner, discussed the paper
among other things said, that he in
tended to read the Post, and what more
can we expect from white paper when
We take Characterless men and give
them preferment pointing to the
marked" Congress. The applause
al this remark was deafening.
The paper was discussed by Messrs.
Janifer, JONES, Hilyer. and Mr.. George
c Smith, who stated that he desired
W IiSC 10 d question VI EilNilCSS.
The chair recognized Mr.. Smith, who
said, in very calm and deliberate
manner that he wanted TO make an
apology to the house.
AT this juncture there were from four
to FIVE on their feet calling points of
order
The chair stated that Mr.. Smith had
been allowed five minutes by the
house and as he had not said any
thing there was no point of order to
z eltertain.
Mr.. Smith resuming his remarks
again said, among other things, that
about two years ago he had introduced
a man to this association and the peo-
pie Of this community which he regret
to say is without character or reputa
tion and a man this association in
formed in writing, that his presence
would be Objectionable. l regret,
said Mr.. Smith, that imposed such
character upon the association.
The people were very much excited
and for moment no one knew what
would happen.

cum was addressed last Sunda
fternoon by Mrs. Rosetta Lawson
There was small attendance a.
the Bethel Literary on last Tuesday
evening.
The Shiloh Baptist Lycenm wa
crowded as usual on last Sabbatl
afternoon, with a most Fashionable
and classic audience.
Lawyer t. l.. Jones, the presid
ing officer, was on hand and in his
accustomed and digniied style,
presided over that vast assembly OF
people The subject of the paper
that was re d was, ''Is the present
jury system a benefit to the people ~
Lawyer Jones in vigorous Ian
guage condemned the present jury
system, not only in this country, but
IN the District of Columbia and de-
elared that majority of colored
men, who serve on iurles are cow
ards and are generally Influenced
by white jurors.
Mr.. Chase took the same position
as did Mr.. Jones and thought there
should not only be change in our
jury system. but IN some of the
Judges.
Mr.. Fossett took exceptions to
Mr.. Jones and said that no man
should tell a people, if they serve
On jury, not to convict man if he
il gully.
Do As your conscience dictates,
said Mr.. Fossett, and not as some
people would mislead you.
Lawyer Jones retortsd in vigorous
and piercing language and told his
people that some men were too ig-
Hcrsnt aud selfish and too cowardly
to tell what is really true. There
In too much discrimination in
the jury-box, and i know sail MIR.
Jones, that some negroes no serve
on the jury should not be there as
verdict is generally reached by them
before they try a case. I know,
said Mr.. Jones, from personal con-
tact with some of them, d | pro-
pose, said he. to watch in the future
the verdict of our negro jurors.
The music under the direction of
Prof. Simmons was well rendered.

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED

DEAFNESS CANNOT BE CURED
by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inhapled con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets
inhamed you have a rumbling sound
or imperfect hearing, and when it is
entirely closed deafness is the result,
and unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to Its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed
forever; nine cases out of ten are
caused by catarrh, which is nothing
but an inflamed condition of the mu-
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of deafness Caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall S

was strapped around the head in very
tight fashion. On each side the leaves
stuck out in a brusque way. 1t was al
most crown, and no one liked to keep
the reminders of the crown around her
as well as Josephine. When Napoleon
was expected to visit Malmaison there
were eXtravagant theatrical performances
in the little theater; and then Josephine
put on her theater hat and attended, by
the emperor's side.
But that did not prevent the theater
hat from growing larger. America be-
gan to be a powerful and a handsome
country about that time, and in 1920
when the theaters began to spring up in
every city a hat of distinctive American
origin was evolved. 1t was called the
turban, and it became a favorite immedi-
ately. 1t was speedily imported into Eng
land, where 1t had a greater run than
here.
All Walter SCOTS heroines wore the
turban hat. In their pictures the turban
is a band of fine cloth wound around the
head and finished with a jewel at the
top. From the jewel there spring the
feathers of a falcon or the plumes of a
paradise bird
1t was a very beautiful theater hat,
and was better liked than any that went
before it or after, for there are pictures
of ladies in these wrinkled turbans sit
ting for their family portraits, ten years
