MR., GREENWOOD TALKS.


Announces His SemiAnnual Clearance
Sale for To-Day.
A. B. Greenwood, the Chapel street
shoe merchant, announces that to-day,
January Is, he will throw open his doors
to the general public for the purchase
OF shoe bargains.
"This semi-annual clearance sale has
proved with us a great drawing card ;
it has a double benefit, the first is that
it advertises u.s. and secures us trade
from a great number of families who
have heretofore never entered our store
These special prices draw trade for one
time and the wearing quality of the
article purchased has a tendency to
stimulate confidence with the public as
to the merits of the footwear we sell;
it makes them regular customers here
after. The second advantage is that it
clears up our broken assortment of
stock reduces the number of pairs of
shoes on hand, and makes inventory
taking comparatively easy.
This sale effects the price of every
shoe we carry in our stock. Sorosis
Queen Quality Hanan, Fales', Elite,
and numbers of other popular makes
are sold at reduction that brings
them down 10 just about what they cost
us. The money realized from this sale
is placed in our fund for purchasing our
light weight goods for the following
season"
There is not so-called cheap shoe in
Mr.. Greenwood's entire stock. They
are low priced shoes, but they are not
cheap in any sense of the word. Every
pair has that quality, appearance, com
fort and durability that win for Mr..
Greenwood the reputation of selling
nothing but what will cause the pur-
chaser to come back for a duplicate of
that order when time and usage has
rendered the original article unfit for
use His quarter page announcement
in another part of to-day's paper will be
read with great deal of interest.

LYDDITE TO COLOR MILK.

| Considerable speculation has been
made as to the composition of lyNdte.
AS a matter of fact its preparation is
we believe, a Government secret, though
it is generally known among experts on
explosives that it consists largely of
melted picric acid. That this is not the
complete story Of the composition of
| lyddite is, however clear from oddly as
it may seem) some evidence given last
week before the committee now MAX
| ing inquiry into the use of coloring
matters and personalities in food In
the course of this evidence one witness
admitted that yellow coloring matters
We're largely purchased with out the
slightest discrimination for the pur-
pose of giving a richness of appearance
to milk and milk products. AS a rule
no question was asked as to the in
furious or non-injurious, character Of
the dye so used.
One of the best coloning matters for
the purpose appeared TO be Martius
yellow-known also under the name of
naphthol yellow, naphthalene yellow
Manchester yellow, saffron yellow and
golden yellow. Chemically this sub
stance is dinitro-a alpha naphthol, which
is prepared by a series of chemical
operations from the naphthalene, the
substance which crystalizes in gas
mains. The principal chemist Of the
Government laboratory assured the
witness that this was an important con-
stituent In the making of lyddite. Mar
thus yellow is itself slightly explosive
when heated, but Of course, no alarm
need be raised on this account when it
becomes known that II is used in milk
and milk products to impart to them a
rich, creamy color. Physiological ex-
periments, however, have shown that
Martius yellow is an extremely injuri-
Gus colorng matter and should be Who'll
ly prohibited. Further 1t may lead to
highly injurious results by merely COM
ing in contact with an abrasion of the

guise of the dragon, so WcmanhOod is
the brightest guise of the church of Je-
sus Granting drink a dragon, then,
ask you to consider how fearfully its
fangs have fastened in the quivering
flesh of woman. And how, because she
has been most widely awakened to give
battle to this monster.
And there Is one more reason on top
of all this why Womanhood wars
against rum, in larger numbers, with
mightier zeal, and with vaster success
than do her husbands and brothers and
sons, and that is because of her superb
or moral courage.
Yes, boast though we please Of our
courage in face of charging musket and
before mouth of belching cannon yet
we must confess that it faints more
quickly than woman's ia the face of
ridicule and before the mouth of scorn.
| Paradox though it may SEEM she
/ stands above us both in gentleness and
| in moral courage. Where is the cor
responding company of men who will
match the deeds of the first Crusaders;
who will go into a saloon and on bend
ed knees literally pray it. out of exist
ence? Where is the corresponding
company of men who dare do what Gull
tured and tender women have done
again and again-go. bnarmed and un-
escorted, into a law-defying liquor den
and with their own, bare hands seize
barrels, bottles, casks and crokscrews,
heap them in pile, apply the match
and send them UP in smoke? Where
are the men who will, summer and win
ter Sunday and weekday, year in and
sneer, earnestly, lovingly, prayerfully,
patiently, continue to fight this with
ing, Kissing, singing dragon of drink?
Echo answers, 'Where?"
But finally we may well ask once
more: Why does womanhood war
against rum? Where does she drink in
the inspiration that makes possible her
sublime devotion to so unpopular
cause? Go with her on that n1emora-
BILE Friday long ago, as she steps close
up on the summit of the skull-shaped
mound, and looks right up in the eyes
of One thereon suspended between
earth and sky, and gazing there sends
silently upon earth q shower Of soul
stuff streaming down! Go with her on
that first day of the week as she leads
the way to the deserted sepulcher, and
there with her clasp the feet Of your
risen Lord-and then go, go with her
and look upon humanity, chained and
shaclSled and shut up in the inner prs-
on Of this awful, memorable evil and
with her, then, you also must uplift
your heart to heaven and thrust forth
your hand on earth against the demon
devil-dragon of strong drink!-nor stay
your heart nor hold your hand until
that hour when the strength of the Son
of God shall prevail against the dragon
in all his hellish forms, and cast him in
the chasn from whose bottomless
abyss he shall never more ascend!
Several other people took part very
interesting programme having been
made out for the occasion The house
was tastefully decorated with palms,
ferns and other potted plants After
the rendering of very interesting pro-
gramme prepared for the occasion tea
and dainty menu was served by Mrs. |
Bristol, assisted by Miss Harriet Bristol
the daughter of the hostess.

ON THE ALASKA
COAGT


| One Of the greatest curiosities noted
by travellers in Alaska is the wonder
full haven of driftwood on the coast be-
tween Yakatag and Kyak Islands, some
1000 or 1900 miles northwest from Seat
tie. The constant deposit of logs and
driftwood in this particular spot, which
has been going on for hundreds, per-
haps thousands of years, is due to the
phenomena of the tides, the Pacific gulf
stream, the mysterious ocean currents
and peculiar formation of the shore
lines at that point. Logs and timbers
are readily identified there as having
come from Japan, China, India, and
other parts of Asia, as well as from
California, Washington, and other parts
of the American continent. There are
fine logs of the camphor tree, the ma
hogany, the redwood, and the pine in
this driftage. Some of those from the
state of Washington contain the names
of the men who felled the tree and of
the sawmlls for which they were des-
tined but never reached.
Logs eight feet in diameter are in this
novel woodward, and some entire trees
$50 feet long are there, uplifted by the
tempest, and sent floating around the
world. Often persons on the beach de-
scry big trees floating shoreward, with
fantastic roots above the waves. One
beach after another has been formed by
the flating timbers and little distance
back from the shore the deposits are so
old that the wood in some places is
petrified While a little deeper in the
earth it has turned to coal. The newer
logs are without bark and as hard as
stone, due, it is thought, to their long
immersion in salt water They have all
taken on whitish appearance In
places the timbers are piled twenty
feet high; at other points they rise to
a height of only four or five feet. I'm
der this wonderful beach are found
large quantities Of dark, ruby sand,
rich in fine particles Of gold, for the
separation Of which no successful pro-
cess has yet been discovered Chicago
