COMPROMISING of Father and Daughter

COMPROMISING Of Father and Daughter
Pm sure that your father knows you
love him, just as you take his affection tor
granted, but do you ever stop to think
bow little you have to say to him, day
after day." writes Helen Watterson
Moody in Ladies' Home Journal "How
often do you find yourself at his side on
the piazzs, or by the sitting room fire,
really talking to him with the vivacity
and interest you show Gertrude's father,
for example?
"Sometimes he seems to want to talk,
and asks questions to draw you out, but
you answer so indifferentiy and with so
itile desire to keep up the conversation,
that he feels rebuffed and says no more.
Do you know hat he said to me on my
last visit, when he spoke OF you: Amy
is good girl and bright one; wish
knew her better, but she dosen't seem to
find her father very Interesting? And
dear, there was feeling in his voice.
Now know you have not had the slight
est idea Of this"

What A Waferviue Man
Did.

This statement was made by Henry
j. Collins, Ii Drummond Ave-, Water
VILE, Me-, on the 24th OF June, 1860:
weighed one hundred and twenty
four pounds.
My face and body were covered
with pimples, and for nearly years
l had been troubled with my kidneys.
now weigh one hundred and
fifty-six pounds.
My face and body are free from
pimples, and my kidneys do not trou-
bic me at all. I"
What did he do for himself?
That is q pertinent question.
Before it is answered, let il be said
that he did what he was told to do.
and that was what thousands had been
told to do and had done with entire
satisfaction to themselves.
And yet it was what many are delay
ing to do, simply because they cannot
make up their minds to do it, in spite
of the fact that pimples are pimples
and kidney complaint is kidney com
plant, and what has cured these things
in one person can be reasonably ex-
pected to cure them in another.
He took Hoods Sarsaparilla, which
has an unequalled record of perma-
nent cures Of pimples and kidney com
plant, as well as of all other cutaneous
eruptions, all scrofulous diseases, ca
tarrh, dyspepsia, rheumatism and
general debility.
Hoods Sarsaparilla acts directly and
peculiarly on the blood, and by making
il pure, rich and abundant, strengthens
the stomach, liver and kidneys, per-
fects digestion, secretion and excretion,
clears the complexion, increases the
weight, and builds up the whole system.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, being an excel
lent remedy, is one for which substi-
tutes are sometimes offered. They do
not act like Hoods, and it is expensive,
in view of the result, to experiment
with them.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is obtainable of
III druggists.

The Ideal schooirnaster.

"a schooimaster should, above all else.
be man eninentiy just, absolutely true
and one who has been. IL, and always will
be, boy at heart" writes Caro- Inc Lesli.
Field In Ladies Home Journal. "Such
man will not only deserve and command
his pupils love and respect, but will have
also knowledge OF human nature which
will enable him to discriminate wisely
and to draw his lines OF Limitation
straight and clear.
.Sach man has his rights. His work
begins at a exed point, aud the material
for that work should have been properly
prepared before presenting 1t. IL Is too
much TO expect that, taking in hand fifty
or hundred odd boys already on the
outer verge OF childhood, he should do for
them not only bis own work, but also
what their parents ought to have been
doing from their cradles. Yet often this
has not been done; more often 1t has been
badly done, with the result OF ovcrwork
and anxiety to the master, WEAKNESS and
encouragement to the pupil, loss to
both which can never be made good"

The Twentieth Century Woman

"We are twentieth century women at
last, with the dover of privilege and re-
sponsibility which enriches women in
this wonderful era, and have no hesita-
tion in declaring that we are more fortu-
nate than any OF our predecessor"
writes Margaret E. Sangster, In Ladies'
Home Journal.
"Our grsndmothers and great-grand-
mothers were handicapped in their girl
hood by thousand preiudices and cast
iron traditional rules, from which we are
emancipated. They had neither our wide
field of activity nor our possibility of
thorough preparation for life; they had
not our strong health nor our immunity
from nervous irritation. The heroines of
the past took cold II exposed to shower;
they could not walk over frosty meadow
because OF their thin kid shoes, and came
into the house muddy and bedraggled
after mornings tramp, which we would
take without the slightest Inconvenience
in our short skirt and thick boots.

REFORMS IN THE PHILIPPINES
Expenses of the Army to be Reduced
Sixty Per Cent

Manila. July 22.-The conferences be-
tween Adjutant General Corbin and
General Chaffee, recently held here
| probably will result in radical economi-
cal and administrative reforms in the
army Of occupation. 1t is estimated
hat the total cost of maintaining the
American army in the Philippines can
be reduced by 60 per cent. in the course
OF one year. The principal change wiz
be the reduction Of the present force
to between Q, 1000 and 30.0 0 men. The
adjustment of the present army dis
tricts is contemplated. and three big
AIDES, with permanent headquarters at
Manila. Dagupan and 1loilo or Cebu,
will be instituted in their stead. The
troops will be concentrated at the three
points selected, abandoning all minor
points.
These changes will result in al n
nous saving in the Transportation OF
supplies and the paying Of rental for
barracks for the soldiers. At present,
in most towns, the troops are quarter
ed in churches, converts and public
and private buildings, for the use Of
which considerable rentals are paid.
Adjutant General Corbin and Gen
eral Chaffee have decided upon the con
struction of barracks at the pumping
station (about six miles from Manila
and the source of the City's water sup
ply to accommodate three regiments Of
infantry, one of cavalry and eight bat
teries Of artillery. as we'll as a general
commiSSary and QuartermaSter's store
house. to cost 500, 900. The erection of
this latter building, will reduce ex-
penses by $4,000 a month, being the
ranfo1S maid for tho nnronofcSarv and
quartermaster's storehouses in Manila
alone. An electric railroad. connecting
the docks on the Pasig river and the
new storehouse will be constructed.
Generals Corbin and Chaffee have
also decided upon one single general
military hospital to replace the seven
military hospitals in Manila and vicin-
ity; n of the latter buildings will be
converted into a public hospital.
The reduction of the great fleet Of
government launches and small govern
ment steamers has already begun.
The insular constabulary is now being
organized. It will be maintained by
the insular government and is expected
to be amply able to preserve peace and
enforce the law.
The telegraph system throughout the
archipelago. established by the signal
corps, has been taken over by the civil
government.
H. Phelps Marsh. civil governor Of
Benguet province. Luzon, has been ex-
onerated of the charges against him by
the civil commission. On account Of
the impossibility Of their continuing to-
gether, the resignation of Mr.. Scheerer
secretary to governor Whitmarsh has
been accepted. Whitmarsh was CEN
sured by h commission for violence
against Sscheerer upon the occasion Of
a public meeting Of the Ingorrote
tribesmen. when Scheerer declined to
act as secretary on of alleged
interferences in the meeting by Amer
lean authorities.

1t was a hungry crowd that sat down

Camp life begins in earnest tomor-
