A Few Valuable Hints From Mrs.
Annie Jenuass Miller.

A Few Valuable Hints From Mrs.
Annie Jenness Miller.
81 am A woman, therefore l can
understand women"
This expression WAS made by Sarah
Bernhardt, the world famed actress,
after creating . part in which the
complex nature OF woman was spe-
cially portrayed. Nine. Bernhardt
pictured the character true to life
and her remark was in answer to .
complimentary expression after her
pronounced success.
The expression was true. Women
do understand other women and
their pleasures and troubles. They
know what they nerd. Mrs. Annie
Jenness Miller began this study
early in life and has continued il
ever since. She investigated the
subject Of appearance, aud the result
was her book, Physical Beauty and
How to Obtain It," She studied the
subject OF dressing and has done
much to aid women in this import
ant and delightful art. She studied
the subject Of womsn's physical
health and as . result discov cred
what she believes to be the proper
means Of constantly preserving it.
In writing upon this subject, she
said:
ut gives me pleasure to express
my faith in the virtues OF q we'll.
known discovery which Is the only
medicine I ever take or recommend.
Six years ago / received the most
pronounced benefit from its use at q
time when suffering from mental
overwork, and l have subsequently
in my travels as a public lecturer
recommended it to many people, and
personally know of several cases
where it has succeeded when the
doctors failed. This discovery is
Warmers Safe Cure.
"Although am now q perfectly
we'll woman, l take several bottle OF
Safe Cure every spring, believing in
the ounce Of prevention rather than
the necessity for the pound Of cure,
and in every instance Safe Cure has
the effect to give new energy and
vitality to all my powers.
Mrs. Miller's experience has been
proven true in millions of other in.
stances Of women who we're suffering
and unhappy and who by means Of
this standard discovery are now in
the possession Of perfect health and
are kept so by continuous use Of
this grand preparation.

DRYING Clothes.

The drying of clothes in frosty
weather is sometimes. in the case Of
delicate fabrics, attended with tearing
because of the quick stiffening in the
very cold air. A simple precaution
which will prevent any such trouble is
to dissolve three or four handfuls OF
coarse salt in the last rinsing water,
thus making it, in fact. q weak brine.
Articles so rinsed will not suffer from
or stiffen with the cold.

EAST Lynne" Was given an excel

per's theatre last night. Constance
Linn. OF this city, took part Of 'Lit-
tie Willie" admirably. "The Prince
OF Liars" was played for the matinee
this afternoon, and tonight Forget

Paiges have done all that was prom.
ised for them In the way Of WELL

pany concludes is engagement to-
morrow night.
This Is the simple story OF how
Francis Wilson lost q success and q
composer practically found $4,000.
1t Was five years ago that John Philip
Sousa was asked by the comedian to
write the music to o libretto Of J..
Cheever Goodwin. Sousa at that
time was anxious to obtain o hearing
rs q comic opera composer, and he
entered upon the work with 90 much
enthusiasm that he soon completed
one act and part Of another. At this
point the comedian and composer
disagreed upon terms and arbitration
was found impossible. Wilson has
never been accused Of being q spend
thrift, and his invariable rule was to
purchase outright and never pay
royalties. Sousa refused to take less
than $1,000 for a S-act piece, and
Wilson refused to pay more than
$1,000. Accordingly they agreed to
disagree. and Sousa put his music
back in his portfolio, while Wilson
secured another composer. The
opera was finally produced under the
title Of "The DEVILS Deputy" and
has been forgotten now for some
years. About this time Souss
signed Q contract with new publish.
ers who demanded Q composition oi
him at once. The latter thought oI
the march he had composed for the
Wilson opera. and digging it out o.
q mass OF manuscript, he sent Ii un'
named to the publishers. Some days
later Souss was in Chicago where ht
witnessed a performance OF the spec
tscle, America" at the Auditorium
Duriog the play drop curtain wal
used on which was painted q repre-
sentation Of the famous old liberty
bell. There's the name for tn,
new march," whispered Col. Georg,
Frederic Hinton. who sat with him
and Sousa nodded assent. II was Z
happy thought, and when the mex
mail brought the composer q letter
from his wife relating how their sol
had marched in his nrst parade In
Philadelphia in honor OF the return
Of the liberty bell from the World.
fair. the coincidence clinched hi
purpose, and "The Liberty Bell
march was christened. Within si,
weeks after its publication "The Lib
erty Bell" had netted Sousa NOR
than Wilson offered to pay him fo
an entire opera, and up to date ha
paid the composer $4,000 in royal
ties, and is still making him handsom,
returns every month. That one mu
sicsl number would have carried th,
opera that Wilson did not buy to
triumphant success. Sousa and h;
band will appear at the Burtis oper,
honse tomorrow evening, when tn
latest OF the famous Sousa marche
will be features OF his concert.

THE WILL OF GOD.
How a Native Justified His Deser
ton of the Standards.

Copyright 1898. by the Associated Press.)
Manila. June 4.-Felipe Buencamino is
a Filipino who was friendly to Spain
and Joined in the arrangement whereby
the Spaniards hoped to conciliate the reb-
ell leaders without sacrificing too much.
He was sent to Aguinaldo camp by Cap
tain General August with the object of
securing Aguinaldo's adherence to the
Spanish cahse. He was arrested by the
dictators orders and held a prisoner
Three weeks afterward he issued a mani
festo renouncinS his allegiance 10 Spain.
Accompanying the manifesto was letter
from Buencamino to Captain General Au-
gust, setting forth the writer's reason
Tor going to the insurgents. Much of the
letter refers to events of no special i'm
portance at this distance from the theatre
of action, BENG devoted mainly to the
opening of hosrilities between the Spanish
and natives and telling General August
that he had come TO the Philippines too
late TO heal the breach created by his
predecessors policy of bad faith and
bribery, and advocating of the domina-
ton of the Iriars.
After pointing out the hopelessness of
Augustus position in Manila, Buencami-
no. addressing the Filipinos, sums up the
situation at the time of writing, as fol-
lows:
Having relied on the valor and worth
of the Spaniards and on history and
Wanted superiority of race, | offered my
life and the lives of a thousand other
Filipinos as volunteers to defend Spain
against her foes. but, i'll view of their
miserable eXhiDltlon OF coWardlce ana stu
pidity. ending in their capture by the reb-
els without resisting as they ought. and
always making my volunteers take the
brunt of the fighting, 1 am convinced
that the SpaniardS are not brave, are not
our superiors and are altogether incapa-
BILE of upholding their sovereignty in the
Philippines. From the moment this was
clear, they have forfeited the right to
rule us, and my duty of loyalty to them
ceases at the same time.
Il therefore join the rebels and work
energeucaily for our independence, which
l perceive to he clearly sancLioDe4 o.
God the eternal judge of all great dis
putes between human nations. In fact.
God in his great wisdom decreed that in
the sixteenth century 30 Spanish soldiers
and today, after more than $50 years of
domination. God DEGREES that a humble
individual, almost unknown, named Don
Emilio ASuinaldo. is to carry out the
mightiest rebellion ever known in the far
