In Memoriam.

Miss Jennettie Florence Ellis. died at her home nsas Hamlin. Ark, Friday, Feb. i5. 1901; age 16 years, s months and days. Gone, forever gone. Deep in the re- cesses Of our hearts and our wearied minds. the bitter truth breaks, paling our faces and causing our forms to reel and trembe beneath ;he sad and despairing
 news.
 Just as the beautiful sun was casting it's dim rays upon us, and giving a glance now and then. through the branches Of the lofty trees, while loving kindred and sorrowing friends were assembled at the bedside of the loved one. watching with an aching heart and anxious eye each movement Of the sufferer. the enemy of mankind was standing over her with out stretched arms and welcoming smiles to seize at the hrst opportunity the precious soul and release the body of its burden. In spite of mothers prayers and
 pleadings. and friends fond hopes, and human skill, the monster. death, never ceased its laboring till with It's icy fingers it touched the form of it's victim. freezing
 the blood, stilling the heart and bearing
 away the soul which in life had been most beautiful.
 Death now stood on the high. straight brow, and the hands that had so many times in life strove to do deeds of kind. ness tO a mother, brothers, sisters and friends, now lay motioness by the side of a pale, cold sleeper, and now: "Gathered round a narrow coffin, Stand mourning train, While for her, redeemed thus early, Tears are falling now like rain. Hopes are crushed. hearts are bleeding, Dr.ar the fireside now and lone, She, the best loved and the dearest. Far away to heaven hath fiown."
 Long, long will we miss thee, Jennettie,
 Long, long days for thee we'll weep,
 And through many nights of sorrow, Memory will her vgils keep. It was after a long illness of So days that she succumed to that terrible disease, slow fever. She bore her illness with great patience, often speaking words of
 encouragement to her ever watchful | mother and sister.
 Thus ended the early life of a loving
 and faithful daughter, a tender and con- | fding sister, true and considerate | friend.
 Farewell, then, our precious friend,
 although you have left memory with us which will live on and on forever. A FRIEND.

Mrs. Norton Entertains.

The last of the series of entertain ments by the Ladies' Card Club was given on Thursday night Of last week. February IA. by Mrs. N. w. Norton to large number of her friends.
 The evening being that of St. Valep. tines Day, Mrs. Norton endeavored to express the sentiment of that pretty and romantic anniversary in the decor ations of the rooms in whic. her guests were entertained.
 St. Valentine and Cupid being in league against all susceptible hearts it was conceived by the hostess to furnish innumerable hearts for the arrow of the tickle little god. and so hearts there were without number.
 Upon the door in the sitting room was hung large paper heart covered with the numbers of the tables and places and each gentleman for the nonce became designing cupid and with his little bow and arrow shot a dart into the tender heart so exposed to his cruelty, and brought down one Of the members and so secured his place in the game. and as hls partner the fair lady who held the corresponds ing number.
 It WAS noticeable that the older gen. t'emen shot their darts with more ac- curacy and certainty than the younger men-indicating the skill of years and practice and also leading one to sus pect that the boys are rather fond of idle dalliance" with gentle hearts.
 The score cards were gems of hand painted water c0lors on heart. shaped cards, the gentlemen's cards bearing the face of flair, sweet maid," and on the ladies' cards were faces of hand. some gallants.
 llie game was euchre and Dr. Stone stepped off with the gentlemen's prize -a heart pin in pretty stones-while Mrs. Graham won the ladies' prize a heart-shaped cut glass bon bon dish. MT. Otto R0llwage was made happy by bunch of lovely white carnations tied with large bow of pink satin ribbon as the consolation" prize while Messrs. Barker and Ingram played off tie of the highest lone.hand score. and Mir. Barker was rewarded with a heart.shaped hand painted photo frame.
 During an intermission of the game delicious claret punch was served from bowl surmounted by a large heart formed of a string of smaller hearts, all entwined in evergreens, a veritable ''heart of hearts,"
 After the game, refreshments of salads and ices were much enjoyed b, all and so a most enjoyable evening came 10 close.
 The sweet charm of the hostess and genial smile of the host gave everyone welcome aud invited all to merriest enjoyment.
 There were thirty.six guests all of whom departed fully convinced that St. Valentine and Cupid are sure. enough Gods.

Judge Lindsay Makes a Dog an
Expensive Luxury.
Won't Allow Feelings of Dog
Catchers to Be Hurt.
MR.. COWDREY is FINED.
Paid His Tax but That Made
No Difference.
Promptly Appealed Case to the
District Court.

Police Judge Lindsay decided Friday
evening in police court that any one
who refuses to deal with or talks unkind-
ly to dog catcher. is liable to have fur
ther trouble even if he should relent and
pay his tax. Mr. R. 2. Cowdrey, the
well known gas Office manager living
at 112 North Quincy street, positively
refused to do business with NJ E. Youn-
kin, a dog policeman who called to col
lect So as tax on a female dog owned by
Mr.. Cowdrey. Younkin insisted that the
tax should be paid, but Mr. Cowdrey
thought otherwise, and requested the
ure from the premises under penalty OF
instant destruction. Mr. Younlzin made
his escape, and soon swore out war
rant for the dog owner. Mr. COWdrey
began to see where he had made a mis-
take, and lost no time in getting around
to pay the So into the city treasury not,
however, by way of the city agent
whom he had invited to vacate MS
premises. Although Mr.. Cowdrey had
paid the tax, it did not erase the fact
that he had ruff1ed the august dignity
of the officer, and he was arrested Tor
refusing to pay. In police court he ad-
mitted the charge and was fined 50 and
costs. Judge Lindsay said: Mr. Cow
drey, I will just assess your fine at 80,
but I don't think the next person VINO
comes before this court for refusing to
pay dog tax will get off that easily
Mr.. Cowdrey put up an appeal bond

national commission at it's session last
night approved the Forest park site

There viii not be another session of
the body until the question of plan and
scope of the exposition have made such
progress as to necessitate another

GOOD BREAKFASTS.
Start the Day Right.

The breakfast is perhaps the most
important meal of the day. Europeans
usually eat a very light breakfast.
Many Americans have stomach trouble
because they eat too much or food of
not the right sort for the morning meal.
An ideal breakfast is a baked apple or
some other fruit, a dish of Grape-Nuts
Food with a little cream. and a cup Of
Postum Food Coffee.
Leave off all meat, hot biscuits, etc.
Graps-Nuts and Postum both furnish
the phosphate of potash together with
other food elements that go to make up
brain and nerve centers as well as
muscle and tissue, and both can be di-
gested by the stomach of an infant.
1t is the part of wisdom nowadays to
use food especially selected for nourish-
ment and that can be easily digested.
Ten days trial of this breakfast and
you will feel as though you had clean
ed house.v
The exhilaration of bounding health
is worth hundred times the small
outlay of time and care In arranging
such a breakfast
Mrs. Riley, 125 Chestnut ST.. Camden,
N. j., says she for4.4erly breakfasted
on chops. hot biscuits and coffee. After
such a meal would have severe pains
to the night She finally determined
on a change in her diet and had for
breakfast only Grape-Nuts Food and q
little cream with Postum Food Coffee.
She says, "in a very few days the intes-
final trouble all disappeared have
regained my old-tirne weight, lost the
irritability and nervousness, and life
takes on a new aspect.
When feel a little exhausted in the
day simply drop everything and stir a
spoonful of Grape-Nuts in little
cream or hot milk. and in ten minutes
i have regained my vigor and fresh
ness"
Grape Nuts Food is best when served
just as it comes from the package with
out any cooking whatever. The food
has already been cooked ten or twelve
hours in the process of manufacturing
it. When made up into puddings, pies
and other desserts it does not hurt it to
be cooked again, but when served SIM
ply as a brea kfast food it should never
be cooked On the contrary Postum
Coffee absolutely must be boiled Is or
20 minutes before the food value and
flavor can be brought out.

SMOOTH CHINESE SCHEME.
Alien Excursionists Have Men Swear
They Were Born Here.

Seattle, Wash. June 29.-Judge G. III.
Hanford, of the FEDERAL court, has
handed down a decision on a habeas
corpus case in which, he made some
pointed comments on the past methods
of bringing in Chinese aliens as Amer
ican-born Chinese. The court stated
that it believed American witnesses
had been bought to testify as to alienI
Chinese having been born in Seattle,
and stated that hereafter he would
consider that all Chinese born in
Seattle prior to 1890. who had gone to
China had come back He proposes to
let no more Chinese in on this claim.
1t is alleged that a regular system has
existed in this city of hiring white men
to swear that alien Chinese are known
to them as having been born in Seattle.
