A load ofcases weighing 400 pounds
arrived at Hurd's drug store today.
They contained an important order of
dolls bought before the new Dingley
bill took effect. Mr.. Hurd says he has
every conceivable kind at about 3 OF
former prices. Church fairs, etc., will
find good opportunity to buy in dozen

should the outside of the body
be perfectly clean, but the interior OF
the body as we'll. Clean teeth, clean
mouth, clean throat, clean nasal pas
sages, are all requisites of perfect
health. The whole body, as we'll as
every organ in the body is lined with
mucous membrane, which is even more
liable than the skin to become very
dirty. The most frequent cause of UNI
clean mucous membrane is catarrh.
Catarrh creates unnatural secretions,
even though the catarrh be very slight
In this condition good health is impos-
sible.
DR.. Hartman has made IL speciality OF
treating chronic catarrh for nearly 40
years. His great remedy (Pe-ru-na)
has become known throughout the
United States and Canada. 1t is GER
tainly the best, and probably the only
effective internal remedy for chronic
catarrh. It's cures are permanent.
The Doctor is also the author of many
books on chronic catarrh. His latest
book on the subject will be sent free

OWEN AS IAGO.
He Plays the Part Admirably Well Friday
Night.

Night.
There was another nearly full house
at the Rhode Friday evening to witness
the performance of g OtheIon by the
William Owen company. Mr.. Owen
took the role of " Iago," the tan
cient" or ensign, "the being of mo-
tionless malignity, passionless, self
possessed, skeptical of all truth and
purity-the abstract of the reasoning
power in the highest state Of activity,
but without love, without veneration,
a being next to devil, and only not
quite devil, and yet character which
Shakespeare has attempted and exc
cuted without scandal" The part
was taken with consummate skill.
The part of " Othello,u the Moor,
who kills his wife, Desdamona, through
distrust Of her fidelity and virtue,
though not in jealousy, but as Cole
ridge says, in a conviction forced
upon him by the almost superhuman
art of Iago such a conviction as any
ndu WOulO CCuO LuuOU t1JNO CLlOI
who had believed lagos honesty, as
Othello did, !" was placed in the hands
of j. w. Mcconnell. The part was
taken much better than it had been
last summer when the company played
the piece.
Miss Baker in her part of BESIDE
mona" had every opportunity to bring
out her powers as an emotional ac-
tress and she handled the part exceed
ingly well.
1t is perfectly safe to say that this
company has very strong hold upon
the affections of Kenoshans and the
greater part of the people will be sorry
that it cannot remain to put in another
week among us. All will be pleased
to know that Mr.. Owen announces
that he will return to us at his earlist
convenience.

most sure to be broken.

WORCESTER, Mass, July SO,-con-
siderable comment is being heard to-
day over the criticism offered by Pres
ident Hail. Of Clark university, Of the
pledge taken by the members Of the
Christian Bndeavor society. and his in
tlmatlon that II Is almost sure to be
broken.
The words Of DR.. Hall were spoken In
connection with lecture at the sum
mer school on Certainty and Puzzles.
He talked at some length on profane
and moral oaths and discussed the
wisdom of the Christian Endeavor
society. Ho said: I'VE find elaborate
vows in the Christian Endeavor pledge,
How much shall we rely on them?
This In n grave question. The oath
should not be taken too early, and GER
talnly no oath should be taken that
cannot be kept. For n young person to
take an oath which extends for years
into the future and which is almost sure
TO be broken, It seems TO me, is n very
serious thing and should not be entered
upon lightly"
DR.. Hall continued: ''what shall We
say about all this? It is difficult
question and the answer is not easy
Some of these forms OF oath should be
preserved. II seem TO me that proper
regime OF the soul requires that the soul
rise sometimes to the very height OF
affirmation in great crises / believe
there should be something by which the
soul can express Its whole conviction.
We need to have standards. Swearing
is n form of classification Of pereep-
ton. 1t Is standing up n less degree
OF certainty against greater estab-
llshed degree, and thus lending strength
to the lesser on the other hand, oaths
are vulgar and 1t is a demoralizing
habit TO always talk in the superlative,
This over-emphasis as II appears in un-
derllnlng words OF writing seems sign
of degeneration, n losing OF the power
of discriminating degrees Of certainty
II Stays the sanctlties. In this connec-
ton we should discuss VOWS. II Is q
grave and serious question how far we
should 10 in taking VOWS like thar OF
the Christian Endeavor society. Ger
tainly such vows should not be taken
too early in life or be too elaborate"

the causea OF such struggles. Some con-
fusion Is caused by events seemingly
contradictory; by closing OF large cotton

others are advancing, but the balance iB
unmlstakably on the right side.
The most important event since tho
passage OF the new tariff which was gem
orally anticipated u week ago, has beea
the marked increase In foreign demand
and advance In price for wheat. The
latter has risen ~ cents during the week
with western receipts for the first time
exceeding last years and western rail'
roads besleged for cars Corn also ad-
vanced 1.25 cents and cotton a sixteenth.
though reports as to yield are good.
The Industrial sky Is partly overcloud-
ed by coal and iron difficulties and by
the closing OF some large cotton mills.
The wooden manufacturers answers
wholesomely and moderately to new
tariff conditions and while opening OF
light weights below about 81 in cost has
met a very encouraging demand. the ad-
vance In prices asked Is not large. With
very heavy stocks of free wool on hand,
manufacturers are able, and, In the pres
ence Of large stocks OF foreign goods, arc

CANADIAN AFFAIRS.
LaurIer's Plan for Great Imperial Par
lament Behind the Times.


LONDON, July SO.-The Daily News
this morning publishes the report of an
interview with Sir Charles Tupper, in
which the ex-Cnnadian premier says
that tho French Canadian loyalty to
Great Britain is largely due TO the
knowledge that the annexation OF Can
ada to the United States would result
in the abolition of their privileges 60
laws, language and religion under the
quebec net
Dllating upon the benefits of fedora
ton, Sir Charles said he regarded Sir
Wllfrid Laurler's plan for the formn-
ton OF q great imperial parliament as
hopelessly behind the times and impos-
slble of success, because such a body
must include In its powers the rights Of
taxation for imperial purposes,
Therefore lta membership must be
framed somewhat upon a population
basis which would mean that in a few
years the people VS.. the Colonies would
utterly swamp the voice of England.
who would never submit thereto. Sec
ondly, tho colonies would never submit
to a surrender OF their autonomy, nor
would they hand over large part of
their powers to a body thousands OF
miles away.
"Aly idea" continued Sir Charles. "ls
TINT framed by the Ottawa conference
and afterwards supported by colonial
secretary Chamberlain, OF preferential
trade within che empire. Under a ten
per cent duty on corn and meat Canada
would supply England with all she
needs. | believe England would restore
the duty on corn aud that the opera
tlyes would bo the most ardent sup
portcrB OF the plan, seeing that thereby
they would enjoy to a greater extent the
urcat growing colonial markets. re-
gard Sir Wilfrid Lnurlcr's preferential
tariff az an absurd scheme altogc ther
misunderstood by the English press and
the people. IL is not preferential 10

suit than n compliment
The Canadian mlnlsiry's course In

and German treaties is little less than a

been clearly proved thnt the colonies are
bound by these trcntIes. Had Sir VIII
