Pat shot With the Camera In Battle.
Few photographers in the States re-
aIize to what an extent photography
has been useful in the work of the
United States in pacifying the Philip
pines A very complete Photographic
department has been organized, and
its members have performed some real
ly heroic feats- Captain O'Keefe per-
formed before Malabon one of the
most brilliant pieces of photography
ever attempted. He was engaged in
taking picture of the enemy's in
trenchments some hundred yards with
out our lines when band of Filipinos,
led by a deserter, attempted to cut him
off. He calmly focused his camera on
the proper spot. waited until the band
broke from cover. not fifty yards from
him, and then photographed them.
During his subsequent retreat his as
sistant was twice wounded, he himself
once. his spare plates were shattered.
but the camera was uninjured. and the
plate he took was subsequently the
means of convicting the deserter of
treason. for which he is now serving q
life sentence.

down to breakfast There he congratu-
lates his wife on the way her Illinois

breakfast where he eats bread made
from prairie flour, timed oysters from

BROKEN BRIC-A-BRACS.

Mr. Major. the famous cement man, of
New York. explains some very interesting
facts about Ma jor'S Cement.
The multitulcs who use this standard ar
ticle know that it is many hundred per
cent, better than other dement's for which
similar claims are made. but u great many
do not know why The simple reason is
that Mr.. Major uses the best materials
ever discovered aud other manufacturers
do not use them, because they are too cX-
pensve aud do not allow large profits. Mr.
Major tells Us that one OF the elements of
his cement costs - % II pound, and an
other costs - 90 II gallon. while II large
share of the so-rallcd ccmentS and liquid
glue upon the market are nothing more
than siXteen-cent glue. dissolved in water
or citIic acid. and in some cases, altered
slightly in color and odur by The addition
of cheap and useless materials
Majors cement retnils ut fifteen and
twenty-five cents Il bottle. and when II
dealer tries to sell | substitute y"u can de
pend upon it that his only object is to make
larger profit
The profit on Majors cement is rs much
rs any dealer ought to make ON any cement.
And this is doubly true in view of the fact
that each dealer gets his share of the bene-
fit of Mr. Majors advert ising. which now
amounts to over 5000 II month, throughout
the country. Established in 1876.
