WHAT "xALsoMINDs, ARE.

"Kalsomines" are cheap temporary
preparations manufactured from
chalks, clays, whiting, ETC., and are
stuck on the wall with decaying AMI
NAL glue. They bear no comparison
with Alabastine, which Is cement
that goes through process Of set
ting, hardens with age, and can be re-
coated and re-decorated from time to
time, without having to wash and
scrape off its old coats before renew
ing. Alabastine is made up ready for
use by simply adding cold water.
Consumers, in buying Alabastlne,
should see that the goods are in pack
ages and properly labeled. If any
dealer tells you that he can sell you
the same thing as Alabastine or some
thing Just as good, he either Is not
posted or is trying to deceive you.
He Is offering something he has
bought cheap and is trying to sell on
Alabastine's demands. Nothing else
is "just as good as Alabastine. The
claims Of new limitations are absurd
on their face.

A Dirge.

1.-THE following poem was written on the
morning after the assassination of Presi
lent Abraham Lincoln"
Slowly, sadly, toll the bell;
Let its sObbing cadence tell
How a nation mOurDeth well
For her noble chief who fell
BY foul assissin's hand.
For ourselves, the tear-dr0ps fall;
Not for him: his funeral pail
Gives him place beyond recall,
With the Heroes of our land.
Pass, D Spirit strong and true:
Our aching hearts ache not for you,
Sleep, o hand to dare and do
All that Freedom might demand.
Rest from beating, Heart so brave
Henceforth, Honor gilds thy grave;
Friend of freeman, of slave,-
Grander fame no soul can crave:
With renowned ones, ever stand.
Toll, o Bell, yet sadly toll,
Forth thy brazen sorrow roll;
Still for us: a mighty soul
Too soon is numbered on the scroll
With Tells and Washingtons.
Lincoln, join the martyred throng;
Live In story and in song;
Fen thy death makes Right more strong;
Go, rest with Glory's sons.

Proverbs, axioms and wise sayings have
been uttered by COnfucius and other wise
men from time immemorial, but few pc ope
realize how many there are of them. @. 1.
Hood q Co., of Sarsaparilla fame, have over
two thousand and they have originated the
ingenious plan of serving them upin delect-
able shape in thousands of newspapers, with
each one neatly turning a point as to the
merit of their we'll known medicine. The
extensive use of these proverbs is original
and creditable to HoOd& Co.

Almost every man in America has some |
digestive trouble When men meet, the |

That develops health talk. The man who |
has no bowel or stomach trouble is almost |

of themselves. They eat as though they
had copper stOmachs and bowels of brass

"Self-reverence, self-knowledge, self
content,
These three alone lead life to SOW

Yet not for power (power of itself

Acting the law we live by without

And, because right is right, to follow
right
Where wisdom is the seorn of conse-
quence. "-Tennyson.

Battle Flag Of Terry's Texas Rangers
Restored by It's Indiana Caplors.

DALLAS, Texas. October 5.-Tha
tattered battle flag OF Terry's Texas
Rangers, captured by Indiana soldiers
during the civil war. was to-day restor-
ed to the remnant OF the gallant con-
federate band, the ceremonies taking
place in the auditorium at the fair
grounds. Governor Mount, OF Indiana,
and staff; Gov. Sayers, Of Texas. and
stan, and an immense crowd OF G. A. r.
men, ex-Confederates and Texas citi-
zens were present.
In presenting the flag, Governor
Mount said in part:
This great occasion becomes an
epoch in our country's history. A third
OF a century ago the two great States
represented here were bitter rivals. To-
day we meet as citizens OF a common
country to weld strong the bonds OF
national union sundered during that
war. Removed by the tide of time. let
the asperities OF the past be forgotten,
for it is better 10 exercise charity than
to engender strife. TO plant the seeds
OF concord than the germs OF hate.
The loftiest patriotism is now found
in binding up the nations wounds and
unifying the country's strength.
We come to return In love a battle
flag we took in anger. Since those who
fought US then are brothers to-day and
fight by our side. Is 1t not eminontly
proper to turn these trophies Of wa4.
representing as they do the eternal past.
into mementoes of friendship to rep
resent the spirit Of unity into the living
present? Who will dare criticise this
noble impulse as mere morbid senli-
mentality? United. we are marching
forward to grander industrial and COM
mercial victories. We excel In all the
elements Of true greatness. the might

Take this flag. and may It hence
forth be an emblem Of unity and good
will between the great States OF In.

PRESBYTERIAN ALLIANCE
Must Change Its Methods or Next Meeting
WIZ Be FaiInre.


WASHINGTON, October 5.-The
Presbyterian Alliance continued its ses-
sion here to-day with the reading CT
papers and discussion Of the prepara-
ton to be made for the Liverpool meet
ing next year. This discussion filled
the greater part of the morning session
and developed the fact that many Of
the members were dissatisfied with the
lines on whiS> the meetings of the alli-
ance have been conducted. DR.. Scring-
er, of Montreal, said that this was the
first meeting he had attended and I'M
less different programme were adopt
ed in the future, he should not care to
attend again 1t was generally agreed
that the alliance wanted fewer long,
heavy papers and more time for dis
cussion of live, practical topics. The
various suggestions were referred to
the programme committee for the next
meeting.
The afternoon session included talk
on mission work in the Transvaal by
Rev. P. c. J. Meiring. Of johannesburg,
and a paper on divorce by Rev. Prof.
A. NJ McJenahan, OF Allegheny, Pa.
Dr.. Meiring said the TransyaaI had not
been able in its earlier history to do
much mission work, but with the in
crease in wealth and population it was
undertaking the civilization Of the wild
tribes and now had seventy-five work
ers among the Kaf1rs and other tribes
After the reading Of Prof. McClena-
hans paper on marriage and divorce,
Rev. Cyrus Cort. the author OF the dis
turbing arbitration resolution OF Tues
day, offered a strong resolution against
the sanctioning of divorce on any but
"scriptural grounds The resolution
went to the business committee.
In discussion on arbitration. Samuel
Smith. an English member Of parlia-
ment, made an earnest plea for the con-
clnsion of an arbitration treaty between
Great Britain and the United States,

CAPT. PARKER
Emperor Williams Racing skipper Giving
Assistance to tile sha m rocks Captain


Assistance to the sha m rocks Captain
NEW YORK October 5.-Regarding the
identity of capt. Jones, of Southampton,
the World says: Capt. Bob Parker the
German emperors racing skipper, VINO
has been spoken of in the capacity of an
additional captain on the Shamrock, was
greatly in evidence on the Irish cup-hunt-
er on Wednesday. His advice to Capt.
Wringe. who held the tiIler of the yacht
nearly all day Tuesday. assisted mater
tally in keeping the challenger well up with
the Columbia. To 6apt Parker belongs
no small need of the success that fell TO
the visitors in the first to-, of the series
of races Of 1899. Capt. Parker arrived on
the liner New York, but owing to the fact
that ne sailed upder an assumed name
the unknown Capt. Jones. of Southamp-
ton, managed to arrive in port and get
safely aboard the Shamrock without be-
ing interviewed During a conversation on
board the Erin one of the officers of the
yacht says that Capt. Hogarth did not
touch the tiller of the Shamrock during
the race
Capt. Parker. as the sailor who arrived
on the liner New York undoubtedly is, was
busy all morning giving instructions here
and there on the deck of the Shamrock.
He suggested stretching the mainsail here
and there, critically examined the set of
the topsan and discussed the details with
Mr.. Ratsey. who was with him on the
deck. The latter noted the remarks of
the emperor's captain with great care. AS
matter of fact, Capt. Ben Parker and
his ability to sail a racing 90-footer will
have a considerable influence on the out
come of the series of races between the
Columbia and Shamrock.
