GOLDEN RULE JONES.
A Mayor Who Hasn't His Like in America
Chicago Times-Herald.

Samuel M. Jones, mayor of Toledo,
Ohio. was at Hull House yesterday study
ing the golden rule. This Jones is more
remarkable than his name. He has a
successful factory, and the only regula-
ton posted about the premises is copy
of the golden rule. AS one result his en-
ployes get big wages and work only eight
hours. He was nominated because he be-
Iieved in the golden rule, although he
was not an aspirant for office. He is run
ming the city of Toledo on the golden rule
plan. He has a sort of an open air peo-
ple's church whose only creed is the gold
en- rule. The preaching is done by Cath
oIic priests, Jewish rabbits, know nothing
anpostics, orthodox Christians, heatbens
and atheists-by any one, in fact, who
believes in the practical application of
the golden rule. Mayor Jones came to
Chicago as this guest of George E. Hook
er. and spent the day at Hull House
studying it's methods of applying the
golden rule.
Mayor Jones has been interested in the
production of oil for thirty-two wears
beginning in Pennsylvania and going to

The Cause Of Dyspepsia.

The most common of all human all

gravating disease, inherited by man, dys-
pepsia.
The primary cause of dyspepsia is lack
of vitality; the absence of nerve forcei
the loss of the DEMONSTRATING elements OF
the blood.
No organ can properly perform its tunc-
ton when the source of nutrlment ialls.
When the stomach is robbed OF the nour-

A practical illustration of the symptoms
and torture of dyspepsia is furnished py
the case of Joseph l. FanoyRe' 44o
Hickory St., Scranton, Pa.
In telling his story, Mr.. VandyBe says:
Give years ago / was afflicted with
trouble of the stomach. which was very
aggravating. 1 had no appetl1e, couio
not enjoy myself at any time, and espec-
ialIy was the trouble severe when awoke
in the morning I did not know what
the aiI1nent was, but it became steadily
worse and l was in constant misery.
III called in my family physician, and
he diagnosed the case ss catarrh of the
stomach. He prescribed for me and had
his prescription filed. took nearly all
of the medicine, but still the trouble be-
came worse, and felt that my condition
was hopeless. I tried several remedies
recommended by my friends but without
benefit After had been suffering sever
al months, Thomas Campbell, also arrest
dent of this city, urged me to try DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People.
''He finally persuaded me to buy box
and began to use the pills according to
directions. Before had taken the sec
6nd box / began to feel relieved, and
after taking few more boxes consid-
cred myself restored to health. The pills
gave me new life, strength, ambition and
happiness"
Dr.. Williams Pink Pillsicure dyspepsia
by restoring to the blood the requisite
constituents of life, by renewing the
nerve force and enabling the stomach to
promptly and properly assimiiaae the
food. These pills are a specific for all dis
eases having their origination in impov-
erished blood or disordered nerves. They
contain every element requisite to general
nutrition, to restore strength TO the weak,
good health to the ailing.

PRESSING EMBROIDERY.

In all cases of embroidery on linen the
work should be carefully pressed when
finished, and it is important for every
embroiderer to know how this may be
done in the simplest and safest manner,
says the "Women's Home Companion.
The proper way to press the finished
work is to lay the embroidery face down
on clean cloth spread over an ironing
blanket, OF two or three thicknesses of
flannel; place thin, dampened cloth on
the back of the article to be pressed, and
then use hot iron deftly on the wet sur
face until it is perfectly dry. A steam
ing process is thus engendered, whereby
the embroidered linen is rendered smooth
and the effectiveness of the work much
enhanced.

water until the syrup begins to crystal
lie. Then dip the flower petals, a few

sprinkle them evenly on both i les with

Spinning sugar is not easy, nor is it so
difficult an operation as the uninitiated
might suppose. Choose dry day for the
work, as any dampness in the atmos-
phere seriously interferes with success.
Put pint of sugar in a graniteware
saucepan, pinch of cream of tartar,
and half cupful of water. Boil until
it breaks off sharp and crisp and craokles
when chewed; then remove the saucepan
from the fire and place it in cold water
for moment to stop the cooking.
For spinning two forks are needed.
Have two bars placed over chairs SO that
the ends project little. Dip the forks
into the sugar and shake them quickly
back and forth over the roses, when fine
threads of sugar win drop on the rods.
Take the spun sugar carefully on the rods
and roll it into nests. or other forms.
Spun sugar will not keep for any length
of time, and it must be used within q day
or two after making.

than whiting. Kerosene will remove
grease and dirt, but it will not remove fly
specks
Acids should never touch marble, if it
is desired to retain the polish. A piece
of lemon left on the marble will leave
stain, and the polish can only be re
stored by great amount of friction.
Look for the buffalo moth in February
and March on the window stills. In a
warm house thy will work all the year
round. They appear to have special
taste for red; they will eat the red from
a rug. This Characteristic can be used to
advantage of the housekeeper, who places
red rags where the moths are at work ;
they will collect upon them and can be
killed. Red pepper tea is very good for
carpet pests, If the floor is washed in a
solution of one quarter of pound or red
pepper to one gallon of water 1T will do
much to drive them away. This is also
excellent for closet shelves and will rid
them entirely of insects.
