FOR SALE.
A Wonderful Offer to Women.

: We have received word OF most remark.
nble offer which is to bo made TO women by
The Delinedtor, of Now York.
Taking the fact that next year begins
new century, The Delineator offers to distri.
butte Sl7 500 among 1901 women The plan
is 80 cleverly arranged that woman living in
small town or village, has just as good
chance to win ono of these 1901 prizes as a
woman living in cty-bccause the prizes
arc given for tho number of subscriptions
secured in town in proportion to the popu
lation of that town. instead Of being given
simply to those who send tho largest list OF
ubscrbers-which, of course, are most easily
obtained in big cities. Another clever feature
of the plan is, that all tho cities and towns Of
the United States and Canada have been ar.
ranged in seven classes. Tho cities of tho
greatest population arc grouped in Glass l,
and as these cities are not very many, the
prizes offered arc twcnty-oight; the high.
est prize being $500, and tho lowest $500.
The total amount OF prizes given away in this
class is $1,000. Tho remaining smaller towns
and villages fall into six other classes and MS
the number of towns in n class increases, be-
cause, of course, there are more small towns
than large ones, the amount of prizes given
away to a class increases, so that in Class I,
there will be $4,000 distributed among Col
winners.
Furthermore, to everyone who fails to win
one of tho 1901 prizes there will be paid nm
extra commission on subscriptions provided
they equal one out Of every two hundred ill.,
habitants OF the town from which the con-
testant sends them.
This is altogether very liberal offer, and
ono which the famous old Delineaior is well
able to make good, From our point Of view,
we do not sec why such an offer needs TO 10
made by tho Publishers of The Deiineator for
we believe it already has nearly half million
subscribers, Its strong hold upon tho alIcc.
tious of American women has come in tho
past generation, from its practical advice
about dress details and home matters.

BRYaN'S ANTI-CANTEEN VIEWS.
They Win For Him the Vote Of a Prominent
Preacher, a Republican.

A good Republican who is going to
vote for William j. Bryan is the Rev.
Norman Plass. who is largely interested
in the A~nti-Saloon League and is the
superintendent OF the Greater New
York district.
MIR. Plass was formerly the pastor OF
the Plymouth Congregational Church,
in Lincoln, Nebraska. Mr.. Bryan is a
Presbyterian. but was a regular attend
ant every Sunday evening OF the Congre-
g~ational Church. and he md Mr.. Plass
grew 10 be firm friends.
I know Mr.. Bryan we'll" said Mr..
PIass, and admire and love him, as the
rest of his townsmen DO. he is a gen
uine. wholehearted, sympathetic, honest
man. with a lot of personal magnetism.
I know hin through and through and
believe IN him personally from top to
bottom.
L don't believe in is to l." said Mr..
Plaes. and | used to be an enthusiastic
Mckinley man. But imperialism and the
canteen have killed Mckinley in my
opinion. Bryan doesn't believe in the
canteen. About eight months ago. while
making q tour through Texas. Bryan
was asked TO preside at a large banquet.
He asked il they were to have any in
tOXicating liquor, for he should decline
the invitation If they were. And the re
suit was that 200 Democrats sat through
a banquet where only mineral waters
were served"

in the Carolinas has been permanently
injured by drought, but late corn in these
States is promising.
Over the Eastern and Western portions
Of the cotton region there has been q
material Improvement in the condition of
cotton, but in the central districts If has
suffered further from continued rains. In
Texas the crop has been generally laid
