 It was during the negotiations with regard to getting publishers name on the cover that the book went to MT. Heinemann, and from the moment it entered his office. its author says, the tide seemed to turn. He took over the whole risk and brought it out with success.

These men are as regular at their daily tasks as d bank clerk, and, though trey nave fortunes at their disposal. find their greatest pleasure in keeping up those strict business methods which enabled them to build those fortunes. They surely do not work because they would

 There were more people on the streets than at any previous day. The Elks' parade was excellent, replete with many amusing and unique features. Success in this particular, however was to be expected. The and they never will. This is the best and most popular social organization in existence ,and Is composed of the best material in every community in the way of general intelligence and business sagacity and acumen. The Elks are men who succeed in their own business. whatever 1t is, and such men will make Q success of anything they undertake.
 Usually these men-doctors, lawyers and merchants-are staid and dignified, as their business and responsibilities require. but occasionally (and yester- day was one of the occasions) they throw dull care aside like soiled rag and revel in boyish sports. Last night their circus conception was pe- culiarly ingenious clever and attract i've. Every para was carried out to

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.

What suffering frequently results from a mothers ignorance or more frequently from mothers neglect to properly instruct her daughter
 Tradition says ''woman must sui fer" and young women are so taught. There is little truth and great deal of exaggeration in this. If a young woman suffers severely she needs treatment. and her mother should see that she gets it.
 Many mothers hesitate to take their daughters to physician for examina- ton but no mother need hesitate to write freely about her daughter or herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure the most efficient advice without charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is Lynn, Mass.

Mrs. August Pfalzgraf. of South Byron, Wis, mother of the young lady whose portrait we here publish. wrote Mrs Pinkham in January, 1899, saying her daughter had suffered for two years with irregular menstruation - had headache all the time, and pain in her side, feet swell, and was generally miserable Mrs. Pinkham promptly replied with advice. and under date of March, 1899, the mother writes again that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound cured her daughter of all pains and irregularity.
 Nothing in the world equals Mrs. Pinkham's great medicine for regu- lating woman's peculiar monthly troubles

 serious investigation the
 YOUNG cry raised in the recent
 MEMS campaign that young CHANGES. men no longer have a
 chance to win great business success without wealth or in- fluence. The writer has interviewed prominent men in the various indus tries and professions, and the unani- mous testimony is that the young men of today have a better chance, relative ly and absolutely, than their fathers had. Few will dispute this conclusion so far as opportunities for earning a comfortable living are concerned. At the same time it will be no less gener- ally admitted that the chances are much fewer for winning success by building up an independent enterprise. The young man who is unwilling to work under ether men is likely to have hard time in this era of organized in dnstry.
 Both aspects of the subject are dis cussed in interesting style by Charles R. Flint. one of the men who contrib ute to the symposium in the Worlds Work. He is the head of one of the large trusts. and he holds that big combinations multiply opportunities for young men of brains. He says he knows of more than half dozen posi- tions, each worth from s10.OO0 to $15, ,000 year, which are waiting for young men of all around business ability to fill them. He says that in the business and industrial world there are now ten times as many men receiving $3,OOO year as there were thirty years ago. The population has not increased ten fold in that period, and this increase

 One voter in every dozen the coun- try through refrained from expressing any opinion upon the presidency.

which the Puerto Rican ladies convert
into drawn work or embroider in bright
colors
Whips are made of the branches, a
part of the branch being left for the
stock and the fibre lace drawn out to
form topknot rosette. A long lash
is plated at the other end.
The manufactured lace fibre is very
expensive, but nothing can be more
beautiful than the effect of light
through the lamp shades. The cocoa
nut palm grows sheets of fibre on the
outside, so that it looks as if it is tied
up in old mats. but the lace tree grows
its delicate textile fibres inside, with
vast improvements in texture and
color.
The women of Puerto Rico do beau
tiful decorative work with this natural
lace, the net of the fibre being so fine
that it lends itself to the most delicate
designs. 1t is dyed the brightest hues
and made into flowers, which are ap.
piled to the lamp shades of the same
or arranged in shapes of brilliant
moths and butterflies. The large fire.
fly of the tropics is exquisitely simu
lated. On the centrepieces for table
adornment, the Spanish rose is FREE
quently initiated. This rose is white
in the morning, pink at noon and a
deep crimson at night. hence there are
three roses to go with the centrepieces
and these are daintily attached by
means of minute fibres to correspond
with the hour of the day. Each color
of the rose has meaning. The white
rose signifies that the daughters of the
house are too young to think of mar
riage; the pink rose that they are so
ciety debutantes, and the red rose that
they are married.
