sort Of man who knows boys thor
oughIy and can handle even the most
unruly specimens with wonderful ease.
He is not wealthy philanthropist, but
a workingman in moderate circum-
stances In spite of a dire lack of funds
he has already established one branch of
his organization, which he calls the
Boys Protective League and School of
Mechanics For the Protection, Educa-
ton and Employment of Truant and
Hayward Boys.
MIR. Cooper's idea is to give the boys
something to do in which they viii be
interested and to provide a place for
them to do trim He believes that cir
cumstances make criminals out Of idle
boys and denies that they are naturally
vicious, but acquire these traits through
evil associations.
At the first branch of the league,
which is located in Eng1ewood, there
are now about 25 boys. They were pick
ed up by Mr.. Cooper on the streets and
induced to join the league chiefly be-
cause he gave them neat badge to
wear. Next he formed them into mil
itary company and turned them over to
a drillmaster for instruction in the
manual of arms They are promised
a gymnasium and systematic physical
exercise in the future, and along with
this viii come manual training. The
boys will be taught how to handle car
penter tools and to work in tin and
iron A brass band is to be formed and
instruction given in both vocal and in
strumental music.
1t is not Mr.. Cooper's intention to
build up a big institution, but rather to
organize q number of small ones, which
shall be so scattered that they will be
convenient to the homes of the boys.
He expects them to become self support
ing in very short time, so that the
charity element may be eliminated

August arrived. There was large at
tendance at the meeting of the Populist
State Executive committee in Raleigh,
the Butler faction being in control Of
the committee. In view of the charac-
ter of the legislation enacted, the bank
ruptcy of the State and county treasu-
ries, the reign of terror caused by negro
government, the knowledge that no par
ty depending upon the negro can effect
reforms, and a realization Of the grow
ing determine ton OF the white people to
bury differences and restore the State
to Angle-Saxon good government-with
these conditions present in his mind a
member of that committee sought to
commit the party to accepting the color
line drawn by the negroes by moving
that the Populist party be white mans
party, and appeal to the white men of all
parties to vote together to drive out the
gang that is now disgracing the State.
Instead of doing this, resolution was
adopted authorizing the appointment of
a committee to issue an address that
would embody the position of the Popu-
list party in North Carolina. That COM
mittee was composed of III. w. Aver
who as chairman of the Populist party

Women,

And consider that in addressing Mrs.
Pinkham you are confiding your private
ills to woman-a woman whose eX-
perience in treating woman's diseases
is greater than that of any living ply
stefan, male or female.
You can talk freely to a woman when
it is revolving to relate your private
troubles to a man; besides, a man does
not understand simply because he isa
man.
MRS. PINKHAM'S STANDING
INVITATION.
i Women suffering from any form of
female weakness are invited topromptly
communicate with Mrs. Pinkham, at
Lynn, Mass. All letters are re-
ceived, opened, read, and answered by
women only. A woman can freely
talk of her private illness to woman.
Thus has been established the eternal
confidence between Mrs. Pinkham and
the women of America which has never
been broken. Out of the vast volume
of experience which she has to draw
from, 1T is more than possible that she
has gained the very knowledge that
will help your case. She asks nothing
in return except your good will, and
her advice has relieved thousands.
Surely any woman, rich or poor, is very
foolish if she does not take advantage
of this generous offer of assistance.
