, celery compound is by far the best spring
remedy a Woodworking person can take.
Mrs. Osborn has always been distin-
guished in society for the beauty Of her
costumes. No one knows the opinions and
habits of women of ample means and
opportunities better than she. She says
that her friends, who always insist on
having the best. will have nothing to do
with any remedy but Paine's celery COM
pound And this is not surprising when
one stops TO consider the thousands Of
letters that are constantly being received
by the prOpretors of this great remedy,
and by newspapers and medical journals,
as well as from men and women in every
walk of life, all telling one experience
the immediate relief and perfect cure
effected by it,
The best physicians openly endorse and
recommend Paine's celery compound. au-
thorizing the public use of their state
ments that Paine's celery compound, in
case after case, cures rheumatism and
kindred diseases. purifies the blood, regu-
lates the stomach. liver, bowels. and kid

diseased nervous system when everything
else fails

A company which has for its object the
production of colored photographs has
Just been organized in Cleveland, o., and
IL is said that the concern will be capt.
talized at 100000
A few days ago one Of the projectors
of the scheme gave public lecture, which
Illustrated the possibilities of the newly
perfected process. and partially eXempi-
fled the success of the invention. Scores
of colored photographs were thrown upon
a canvas. The results were most sur
prlsng. as the colors of open air scenes,
faces. the plumage Of birds. and various
other objects were reproduced with ex-
actness.
The process is said to be based pri-
marily upon the operation Of slides upon
which are traced delicate lines in the
three primary colors, red blue. and green,
arranged in succession and running from
300 to 1900 to the linear inch, according
TO the requirements Of the work in hand.
These colOred slides are placed In the
camera before the sensitive plate and all
colors are transmitted through them upon
the plate. In the operation of these slides
lies the great secret of the process.

DEWEY AND DYSPEPSIA.

From the diffidence displayed by Admit
raj Dewey and from his notorious aver
sion to anything which savors OF public
demonstrations in his behalf, we judge
that he finds his fame a white elephant
on his hands. Or is it that dyspeptic
warnings tell him TO beware of the BAN
quets and Hastings which surely await
him? Certainly a man with a $4,000 BAN
quet at his beck and call must needs be
apprehensive Of excessive epicureanism.
The first thought of an admiring public
nowadays is to feed its favorites. and the
man who wakes TO find himself famous
must be prepared for tons of honorary
pabulum As we take ii. all the Admiral
asks is TO be let alone. though the chances
for compliance with his request are
slim, indeed.

Defying the Public.
Charlottesville Progress.)


It was in response to general public
sentiment in Virginia that a female ply
stefan was added to the Western State
Hospital for the insane at stanton.
There were advanced at the time sufti-
cient reasons for such a course TO over
come the natural prejudice which the
medical profession and certain influential
members of the board felt towards it,
Not to have yielded then TO the demand
for a woman physician in the female
wards would have provoked such a storm
OF protests and Indignation that the next
Legislature could not have refused to
make such a reform compulsory. 1t was
on account of this acquiescence in public
sentiment that the following Legislature
deemed 1t unnecessary to take such ex-
IRENE measures, preferring to leave it to
the various boards to select female ply
sicians whenever suitable ones could be
obtained.
We are surprised to learn from the
stanton News that the authorities at
the Western State Hospital, while theo-
retically retaining woman on the medi-
cal STAFF are ignoring the reasons which
made her presence in the hospital neces-
sary and are practically defying public
sentiment upon the question. No one was
foolish enough to believe that lady
drug-clerk was needed at the hOspltal, or
that there would be any advantage in
taking the department OF pharmacy out
Of the hands OF an experienced and skill
full druggist and physician and putting ii
In charge Of a Young lady who possessed
no special qualifications for the duties OF
that position. Public sentiment il not
common decency, required that a trained
nurse and woman physician be placed di
rectly over the female wards This Is
what the friends OF the poor unfortunates
had a right To demand. and anything
short OF this is a breach OF faith and an
uncalled-for disregard Of public feeling.

II Is given out that Governor Roosevelt
York legislature which adjourned but
few weeks ago. 1t is said that two rea-
sons will ls given for his so do.ng-one,
that "the Ford franchise bill" needs
amendments; the other. that there
should be legislation upon the subject OF
rapid transit IN New York city.
The Ford bill was rushed through In
the last hours OF the session under whip
and spur applied by Governor Roosevelt
himself, much to the Consideration OK
party leaders. Its purpose Is to make GER
tain wealthy corporations pay taxes upon
the value of the franchises they mold
and II has been hotly denounced by many
OF the favored interests represented by
Mr.. Plat.
II Is believed that Mr.. Platt now has
convinced Governor Roosevelt that the
law Is very faulty and Objectionable.
Roosevelt Is not In a position to retrace
his steps entirely, inasmuch as he sent
two messages to the Legislature urging
that the bill he passed; but 1T Is said that
a plan Is on foot to have the assessments
required by the law made by a state
board, which will be dominated by Mr.
Platt. We hope we do Roosevelt no IN
Justice I'm this matter. but his intimacy
with and reliance upon Mr.. Platt justifies
our suspicious.
The policy set forth in the Ford bill Is
likely to be adopted In many other States,
where more revenue is needed. and where
It would be unpopular to lay any heavier
taxation upon real or personal estate or
business licenses. OF course, corporations
are like individuals in their unwillingness
TO be burdened with additional taxes. and
therefore will see to 1t that the highest
courts OF this country are afforded OPP
porunites of passing upon the constitu-
tionalty of all such legislation
