Poor bryan.

Poor Bryans soul is being tried in va
rious ways these days. Even silver is
going back on him. 1t is going up like
all other things, especially wages, in
these days of republican prosperity.
Bryan got bad blow just after his de-
feat in 1896, when wheat and many 9TH
er commodities advanced in price. The
advance, as everyone knew, was largely
due to his overthrow. A year or so aft
erward, when republican legislation be-
gan to operate, wages started upward.
Now silver has joined the procession.
The consequence of this last advance
will be that if it continues much longer
Bryan will have to drop talking about
silver When silver goes above the so
cent dollar line, as it may do if the ad-
vance continues little longer, he will
have to abandon it. 1t is not a silver
dollar primarily that he wants for the
wage-earners of the country, but dis
honest dollar. The moment that silver
gets above the 50-cent dollar mark his
faith in it will begin to wane. 1t will be
getting too near the honest money line
then to be of much use in his business.

1t is, of course, generally known that
some of the Western lines have great

Foot-Ease Trade-Mark su.tntned.

Justice Laughlin, in Supreme Court, Buf,
falo, has ordered a permanent injunction,
with costs, and full accounting of sales,
TO issue against Paul b. Hudson, manufac-
turer of "Dr. Clark's Foot Powder" and
also against retail dealer of Brooklyn, re-
straining them from making or selling Dr..
Clark's Foot Powder, which is declared, in
the decision of the Court, an imitation and
infringement of 'Foot-Ease," the powder
for tired, aching feet to shake in your shoes,
now so largely advertised and sold all over
the country. Allen S. Olmsted, of lie Roy,
n. Y, is the owner of the trademark Foot
Ease" and he is the first individual who
ever advertised a foot powder extensively.
He will send sample Free to any one who
writes him for it. The decision in this case
upho!ds his trademark and renders all par
ties liable who fraudulently attempt to
profit by the extensive 'Foot-Ease" adver-
tising. in placing upon the market spurious
and similar appearing preparation, labeled
and put up in envelopes and boxes like
Foot-Ease. Similar suits will be brought
against others who are now infringing on
the Foot-Ease trade, mark and common
law rights.

Paderewski's Persuasion,

The American Israelite quotes the
following from the letter of a CORE
spondent: ct is not generally known
that Paderewski, the great pianist, is Of
Hebrew persuasion, and 1 myself was
not aware of the interesting fact until
the other day, when information to
this effect was conveyed to me by a
young Jewish pianist during the course
of a conversation. 1t appears that not
long ago PadereWski visited the pro-
vincial town in which my informant
resides, and, as is the usual custom,
attended rehearsal one afternoon in the
hall in which he was to appear in the
evening. My musical friend happened
to be there at the same time, and
while practicing was espied by the
great pianist, who asked him his name.
My friend gave him a very Jewish
name, which led Paderewski to inquire
whether he was a Jew. My friend an
swered in the affirmative, and was
~agreeably surprised to hear Paderewski
exclaim, And so am l. The truth of
this story 1 can vouch for"

ing is comical. The capote is made of
fine black cloth, and its cost is beyond
the mean of the peasant women, who
content themselves with kerchiefs and
bright dresses; while the rich class fol-
low the Partisan fashions. Though the
larger part of the population of the
Azores is exceedingly poor and unprO-
gressive, a few wealthy families exist.
Lying remote from the beaten line of
travel and only recently enabled to
communicate with Portugal by cable,
they have devoted their energies to
gardening. Even though these gardens
of the local aristocracy are not, as is
often claimed for them, the most beau
tiful in the world, they are no mean ri
walls of the famous gardens of Spain
and Italy. In them most plants and
trees of the tropical and temperate
zones are cultivated successfully, and
the scenery is diversified with beautiful
grottoes and rock work. Flowers bloom
in %profusion and the gardens fairly
seem a Wilderness of sweets"

A GLIMPSE OF. TIE AZORES

Of each other and of the mother coun-

but must have its own distinctive issue.
One cannot but admire the appropriate
ness of the lanes of these islands. Flo
res is the land of flowers; Graciosa,
the beautiful; Corvo, of crows; Fayal,
of beech trees, while the islands them
selves are the "Ilhas des Azores lis

ards). Pico is the mountain towering
to the height of 1000 feet, continually
bathed in clouds. The other islands are
named from the saints on whose days
they were discovered, San Miguel, San
ia Maria, San Jorge. At Santa Maria
may still be seen a chapel vowed by
Columbus in one of his early voyages.

with the skill and strength of the best
of them. She also insists upon max
ing her own beds. This may be be-
cause "the Kruger" needs a very trou-
bled pillow, a sheet without a wrinkle,
to ease him from the arduous duties of
scheming to make empires and mil
lions, but if she does the rest of the
hard work it is probable she makes the
bed to also save the penny-or what
ever the money is in that land. When
there are guests at the presidential ia
BILE, Mrs. Kruger personally waits upon
them. This duty she will not intrust
to a servant, for she says her hus-
bands guests must be served just as if
they were at their own tables. She
may be stingy in other things, but is
liberal to a fault in what she sets be-
fore friends. Every plate is heaped
with the best of well-cooked food, ey-
cry glass is kept full to the brim with
choice wine. 1t is the pride of "Auntie"
Kruger that her household expenses
never exceed the sum appropriated by
the volksraad, $4,000 a year. Not a
cent Of the presidents salary is ever
used. 1t goes into the bank or into
investments known to be safe and pro-
ductive, and unless the pending war
with England results disastrously. the
boer executive will be n of the rich
est men in South Africa before he dies.

PeNIlditeS and Beauties Of POtu5drS Group Of
Little Islands

AS the good ship seven days out from
New York nears the Azores a hustle
and unrest become evident. In the dis
lance the cliffs, rising like banks of
clouds, can be. better and better dis
tinguished by the cabin passengers as
they peer through their field glasses
while the Portuguese steerage passen-
gers are supervising the removal of
their trunks from the hold and sailors
get ready the scanty amount of freight.
Signs Of civilization become visible.
One Azorean passenger appears in pat
ent leather shoes, sadly out of place in
the steerage, and a dark-eyed, dark
complexioned girl has carefully adj
justed her new hat, ornamented with
bright red flowers. An American sub
soil plow and the o%mnipotent bicycle
lie among the freight, omens of future
development for the islands of print
tive pillow and creaking OK cart.
Meanwhile the steamship has passed
along the coast of San Miguel, now
rough with lava crags, where

cones, sometimes bare and %forbidding,
sometimes titled to the very summit.
To the right extends a long cape (Pon-
ia Delgada, delicate point") terminal
ing in an ill-made breakwater of lava
rock. Beyond, in the roadstead, the
ship drops anchor, perhaps two miles
from shore, in full view of the city.
Some Portuguese steamers, small and
rusty looking, lie near, and back under
the protection of the breakwater is a
group of sailing vessels. The city it,

shines forth in dazzling white and
green, a maze of low buildings relieved
here and there by church towers of the
chimney Of some distillery. Ponta Del
gada is the third town in importance
in the Portuguese dominions, exporting
large amounts of alcohol distilled from
yams, and ship loads of delicious pine
apples ripened under glass and said to
be the finest in the world.
The trip across is made in the inev-
liable small boat of southern waters
and neglected harbors, rowed by the
youthful members of the Ponta Delga-
da navy. A picturesque landing place,
with ancient steps Tapped by a sea,
blue, darkly, deeply, beautifully blue
leads through an interesting archway
into the city. The broad plaza faces
the harbor and is backed by the more
imposing buildings, the cathedral, now
undergoing repairs, the local buildine
