Rev. G. T. Notson: The Children's
Home Society, of Sioux Falls, is one of
the most worthy organizations in the
state, appealing to u benevolent
minded citizens. Its work reaches
every part of the state, and is main
tanned by the free-will offering of the
people. Supt. w. B. Sherrard and
wife give their undivided time to the
work without any compensation and
their unselfsh devotion to the securing
OF homes for homeless children should
appeal to the ~liberality of the people
everywhere. l am glad an opportunity
will be afforded our citizens to aid this
most worthy cause in connection with
the union Thanksgiving services, to be
held At the Baptist church next Thurs
day, by the contribution of money or
clothing. From q personal %acquaint-
ance with the work of this society I
can most heartily commend it to all.
During the five or six years of its ex-
istence nearly four hundred children
have been provided with homes by
this society, thereby saving the child
rem in many instances from a life OF
pauperism and crime, and making it
possible for them to grow up to be-
come useful citizens. 1t is impossible
to compute the good that has been ac-
complished by this society, and l hope
our citizens will take this opportunity
to make a creditable offering for the
maintenance of this work.
There is no need of little childre n
being tortured by scald head, eczema
and skin eruptlons. DeWitt's Witch
Hazel Salve gives instant relief and
cures permanently.

Yellow journalism lie as prevalent Iiu
England rs il is in this country. but on
account OF different conditions it as
sumes different form. The Saturday
Rerie,c OF London, is a conspicuous ex-
ample Of it. The correspondent Of the
Rerie,c reported in detail his alleged
conversations with the King and the
Crown Prince OF Greece; the King and
Crown Prince published dsnials OF his
statements; whereup-n TIE Reviesr de-
clares that The King and Crown Prince
are liars. and that it prefers to trust to
its discredited correspondent. This is
yellow journalism of malignant type.
Every public man reserves the right 10
disavow the unauthorized publication OF
private conversations, and every editor
that has beea seduced into printing
such confidential interviews accepts the
disavowals cautiously. The late Ros-
coe Conkliug used to talk vlry frankly to
reporters and then add. ''Os course if
You publish this shall deny that said
it," The experienced reporters replied:
oh, OF course" One day a green horn
added to his copy: Having said all
this. MIR. Conklin remarked that he
should repudiats it if he saw it in print"
Nevertheless the reporter was dis
charged.
10 recent RerieW the editor relates
confidential conversations with Lord
Rosmead-be'ter known rs Sir Hercules
Ro5inson-and represents him as say
ing OF his superior official, Mr.. Cham
berlain, the Colonial Secretary. He
is not a gentleman; no gentleman would
act 50 TO his subordina;es.' I do not
believe that Sir Hercules ever used the
words that have been put into his dead
mouth. The sueer that Mr.. Chamber
lain us not a gentleman is older than
the events in South Africa in which Sir
Hercules took part. 1t was invented by
the Tories when Mr.. Chamberlain was a
Radical leader, AMI it was repeated b.
the Ra iicals when Mr.. Chamberlaip
went over ID the Tories The same
phrase was used against Mr.. Disraeli,
yet MIR. Disraeli became Premier OF
England, and have no doubt that Mr..
Cham berlain will achieve the same dis
tiuction il the silly attacks upon him be
continued.
