Cameo Photography.

The cameo fad has been growing in
favor in New York since Mrs. Fred
Gebhard had her profile cut in blue
agate but not every woman can afford
such luxury, and so pleasing substi-
tute in photography has appeared re-
Gently and makes dainty French vi
gnette
The process reveals clear profile in
strong white lights like pearl against
an intensely black background, and
when carefully executed is beautiful in
its cameo effect

A Woman of Santiago.

Nine. Rosaia Chalia Graham, a ma
tive Of Cuba, now residing in New
York, is an active worker in behalf OF
the Cuban sufferers. She was born in
Havana and educated in Spain. Her fa-
Their held many responsible places, in
Guiding that of minister of Marine
which he was awarded shortly before
death. Her grandfather was an admiral
in the Spanish navy. On her maternal
side Nine. Graham traces her lineage
from Ponce de Leon, who conquered
Porto Rico and explored Florida in
his fruitless search after the fountain of
perpetual youth.
Mile. Chalia showed evidences Of
great musical ability at any early age,
as we'll as of humanitarian impulses,
by giving O concert with the assistance
Of her sister in behalf Of some old men
whose infirmities, added to their power
ty, aroused her childish sympathies.
The concert was such a success that o
temporary homo was secured for the
men, which was the foundation of a
permanent home. After her marriage
to 7. II. Graham she and her husband
resided in Santiago, where they now
have beautiful home.
At the outbreak Of the war Nine. Ora
ham identified herself with Cuban in
terests and few weeks ago gave con-
cert in aid Of the Cuban refugees.
Among the beautiful and interesting
souvenirs which Nine. Graham possesses
she prizes most highly the silver cruoifix
which was wedding gift to her from
Pope Leo XIII.
Nine Graham and her husband look
forward eagerly to the freedom of Cuba,
and they anticipate making their future
home under the new order Of govern
ment. New York Tribune

pie in the audience, Of whom 1872 were
women, says the New York Tribune
The SO men included the pastor, the or

marked; Half of our church congrega-
ton would speedily pass out of exist

of the women" and then added the per-
tinent query, "What if the population
Of the kingdom to come will be as one

Georgia Fashion.

Baked hominy in Georgia fashion is
a southern dish that proves itself both
appetizing and nourishing for the chill
dren's supper or for luncheon dish,
served with old meat The hominy may
be freshly boiled for the purpose or the
cold boiled grits left over from breakfast
may be utilized. When warm, drop in
1t one egg, piece of butter the size Of
q hickory nut, and salt to TASTE and
mix thoroughly with little milk or
cream until it forms batter of medium
consistency, Put in q shallow baking
dish, one of the pretty earthen ones that
can be used ON the table, and bake to a
delicate crisp brown on top and sides.
1t should not be over two inches deep
in the pan.

have unpleasant consequences if one

Popular Hammocks.

Hammock time is here The man,
woman or child who does not like to
lounge in a hammock-well, there is
something radically wrong with such
person, Engaged girls and those who
hope to be will undoubtedly be glad to
learn that the most up to date ham
mocks are very closely and strongly
woven. The most popular are another
evidence of American patriotism, being
made of red, white and blue cord and
trimmed at the sides with long knotted
fringe.

A CRITICAL Time
During the Battle of
Santiago.
SICK OR WELL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.
The Packers at the Battle OF Santiago
de Cuba were all Heroes. Their
Heroic Efforts in Getting Ammuni-
ton and RatiOns to the Front Saved
the Day,

p. Z. BUTLER of pack-train No. 8, writing
from Santiago de Cuba, on July 23d, says:
I'VE all had diarrhea in more or less vio-
lent FORM and when we landed we had no
time to see doctor for it was case of rush
and rush night and day to keep the troops
supplied with ammunition and ratons, but
thanks to Cham berlain's Collie, Cholera and
Diarrhea Remedy, we were able to keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, l sin
cerely believe that at one critical time this
medicine was the indirect saviour of our army,
for if the packers had been unable to work
there would have been no way of getting
supplies to the front. There were no roads
that a wagon train could use. My comrade
and myself had the good fortune to lay in
supply of this medicine for our pack train
before we left Tampa, and | know in four
cases it absolutely saved life."
The above letter was written to the manu-
facturers of this medicine, the Chamberlain
Medicine Co., Des Moines, Iowa. For sale by
c. Blakely, W. +. Terrill d Co., Montpelier.

in THE PLAY HOUSES.
Herrmanns at Lyceum.

Those who went to the Lyceum yes
terday afternoon and evening expect
ing to witness a deterioration in the
Hermann magic show. because of the
absence of the great Herman himself
were agreeably disappointed. Except
in the one essential, originality, Leon
Herman. nephew and successor to the
famous deceased magician, is the equal
of the uncle ITe showed very little
that was new but what he did present
was well presented.
With an inventive genius, which may
yet develope, he will become as great,
doubtless, as his world-famed relative.
His sleight of hand work. with billiard
balls was the best feature of the show
and in this. the supreme test of the
merits of n magician he showed himself
especially deXterous.
Mrs Adelaide Herrmann's Eight"
dances were received very coldly by the
audience. They are a pretty thing but
there has been such a surfeit of this
sort of business that the thcater- going
people have grown weary of it, She
however, redeemed herself in her work
with Leon Hermann in "a Night in
Japan" a series of pretty Illusions done
with an elaborate Japanese setting
The great Hermann trunk mystery,
which concluded the performance, was
as mystifying as ever.

But this work, no matter how well 1t
may be done, is useless II without sup
port from within the store. II has
brought the people. What is the store

vital point--where success or failure

Advertising is not the end, IL is the
means. 1t may be striking, tasteful,
forceful, but if the goods are not right,
the prices too high; If the selling force
be ignorant careless and discourteous,
advertise what you may, your business
will not grow.
Inculcate into every employe the
habit of courtesy and the ability to
talk shop--not to burden the customer
or locker with a meaningless harangue,
but civility and politeness that wins
respect: that makes of the locker.
buyer, and of the customer lifelong
friend. Give to every part of your store
the most fragrant air of welcome.
Build your hopes of success on founda-
tions of popular approval. and every
day will see the turnstile register a
greater number with you. Your busi-
ness will expand and grow, throbblng
with vitality. life and interest. You
will reach out into wider fields.
Concentrate and centralize your
thoughts on your advertising. 1t Is the
new order of things and is here to stay.
1t means ruin to those who oppose it;
it means riches and power to those who
espouse it. 1t means cheaper goods for
the people, and the greatest good to the
greatest number.
