"It's no uncommon thing" said q
New Orleans business man, apropos
of nothing in particular, ''for retail
merchants to receive private instruc-
tions from the heads of families not to
credit some female member of the
household and such cases are mighty
ticklish to handle. As a rule the lady
in point is a good customer, and if we
tell her. no matter how Automatically,

house, and she will go to some store

to luck and to her ability to wheedle

Here's O man who can color your
horse to suit, and do it almost while
you wait. He can literally make black
white-in horses. He is George +.
Richings,a a professional horse painter,
who says that there are great possibll-
lities in his method Of changing a
horses color How he discovered the
process, he describes rs follows;
II was treating horse for a sore,
and found the lotion had run into the
hair and quickly changed its color [
started experiments and have con-
tinued them ever since. frequently
bought old crowbaits for $3 or SO to
experiment On their hides, and finally
succeeded in getting the required re-
suits.
II can make chestnut horse in
twenty-four hours, no matter what the
color of the animal brought to me. To
make black or brown horse requires
from six to ten days"
"Have you ever tried to make Il
white horse ont Of black one?"
ooh, yes frequently; bat it is al
experiment attended with danger to
the horse. The lotions have a ten
dency to weaken the skin and are APP
piled with danger to the more tender
portions Of the horse, more especially
about the tendons. - New Yorl

passed to Imperialism. and drew distinction
between an insane policy Of sheer lust of terri
tory In the interest Of spectators and advent
urers and the statesmanlike course OF conso-
dating and developing an unequaled empire,
with It's vast dominions countless millions oY
subjects and manifold interests. He was reply
ing to Lord Rosebery without seeming to single
him out. and before he had finished he had ar
raigned the Government OF the day for its
wasteful financial administration and neglect OF
various social reforms, and had revived the
courage Of Liberals by singulary tactful and
invigorating speech.
GOOD POLITICAL TACTICS.
Sir William Harcourt on this occasion was a
much better politician than he is ordinarily ac
counted. He disappointed Unonist foes who
had expected distinctive criticism OF Lord Rose
berry and renewal OF faction feuds within the
Liberal party. When they read the text of the
speech they could find neither ordinations nor
denominations against a rival. but only digni-
ned and forcible exposition of the principles or
party which had never faced backward but
had always gone forward. Nor could they dis
cover any signs OF disloyaty to the leader who
now commands the party forces In the Com
mons, nor any indecent haste In bringing for
ward the religious question, with which Sir
William Hsrcourt is identified. Indeed. he spoke
deliberately Of the readjustment of taxation as
the great issue of the future which the Liberal
party would have to take up That may be one
the one In which the English people in Lam
cashire and elsewhere deeply interested.
With wise self-restraint Sir William Harcourt
Kept In the background the religious issue OF
which he has become the foremost champion,
but. even while he speaking the voters Of
southport were bringing II to the front and in
sstng with Lancashire emphasis that some
thing should be done with It, I. n. F.

TO NOMINATE AT HARRISBURG.

PROSPECTS OF DEMOCRATIC STATE CONvEN
TON
Harrisburg. June 1.-THE State Democratic Con-
vention. which meets In this city next Wednesday
to nominate candidates for State Treasurer, Su-
preme Court Judge and Superior Court Judge
promises to be a large gathering. The certainty
Of the election Of the Democratic nominee for Su-
preme Judge, owing to the two vacancies on the
bench has brought out large number of candi-
dates for this honor. The Executive Committee
will meet tomorrow evening to select the officers
for the temporary organization and arrange other
prelimnaries Owing TO the legion of candidates
for the Supreme Judgeship, the convention may
continue until Thursday there is no probability
of a nomination on the first ballot. Ex-Governor
Pattison of Philadelphia will probably be perma-
nent chairman. Representative William I. Greasy,
OF Columbia. is almost certain of the nomination
for State Treasurer.

hausted by their hard campaigns In an unhealthful
climate, will be dying by the hundreds. Yet. in
