Citations will DC opened at the re-
quest of mill owners and aided by
them.
The first work viii be begun i'm

probably be established within six
months. Within = year it is expect
ed that several small associations
will be started in Moline and Rock
Island and within two years the work
will begin in Chicago.

mittee TO the Illinois secretaries and

torily.

ment of the intention of the associa-
tions to work in the manufacturing
centcrs and have associations sup
ported by the owners of factories for
the use of their employees.
II have. so it seems, seen n vision
tonight" he said. Il have seen
vision of the Young Mems Christian
association in each manufacturing
district. II is not only vision. In
six months part of it will be truth.
In three years Chicago will have
these associations. Before that Rock
Island. Moline and Granite City will
have factory associations.
II have talked to many manufac-
turcrs and find that we can expect
success. We are branching out and
this will be one of our greatest eff
forts"

Reason for DIscont.nt.

Mrs. Law. of Dixon. said: The
anonymous letter fracas has nothing
10 do with the disaffection of the ID.
\. Il. for the present state regent.
The faith in her was destroyed when
few hours after her election at
Washington in 1901 she took the floor
begging the congress to elect also
vice president general from Chicago.
This was directly contrary TO the
wishes of her constituents who had
just placed her in Office

Cream Baking Powder

The difference of cost between good
and poor baking powder would not
amount for family's supply to one dol
lar year. The poor powder would
cause doctors bills many times this.
DR.. Prices Cream Baking Powder is
the most economical in the end, because
it goes further in leavening and insures
perfect, wholesome food.
Used always in making the biscuit
and cake it saves both health and money.
Made from pure, grape cream of tartar,
most healthful of fruit acids.

A BASIL DUKE SToRY.-General Basil
Duke, of Louisville, KY, Is very absent
minded and walks along the street, as
one Of his friends says, "as If he were
searching for dollars on the sidewalk"
It is even said that he has passed his
wife on the street without recognize
ing her.
A short time ago General Dukes son,
who is a civil engineer, returned to
Louisville. He boarded a street car to
go to his home. Soon after his father
got on the same car, and the young
man rose and extended his hand. Seiz-
ing it the general shook 1t heartily, say
ing:
How are you this morning, and how
Is your father?"
The loud laugh with which several
of his friends, who were in the car,
greeted this remark, woke the general
from his reverie sufficiently to recog-
nize his son.

Anything She Wanted.

Mrs. Mabel Loomis Todd, wife of the
Amherst astronomer, was telling the
Appalachiain Mountain club the other
evening about her experiences in the
Philippine islands last summer, one In
cident Of which contained a warning
against too great lingual facility.
The party with which Mrs. Todd was
sojourning, included a relative OF one
of the civil commission, a young lady
who had lived several years In Samoa.
The party had reached one Of the
southern islands Of the Philippine ar
chipelago and were meeting" a group
of the natives that had come to greet
them. These natives appeared to be
somewhat different from the run of Fill
ipinos and were particularly distin-
guished by the handsome beadwork on
their garments. Men and women wore
it in elaborate and exquisitely designed
figures. All the ladies Of the touring
party coveted specimens, but all at
tempts to buy some were fruitless.
The natives would not sell on any con-
sideration.
The young lady who had lived so long
in Samoa overheard their conversation
and remarked that she understood
them, their dialect was so nearly like
the Samoan language. Some of the
older ladies, the chaperones Of the
younger fry, urged her to so ahead
and see what she could do with Sa-
moan, which she accordingly did. The
chief, whom she addressed, threw up
his hands in surprise. What" said
he. docs the white maiden talk our
language?" He was evidently overjoy-
ed and promptly asked her the Samoan
eqivalent for what he could do for
herr"
She told him in her sweetest Samoan
how much she admired the bead work
on their garments and how much she
would like to buy a piece Of it to take
back to her own country and show her
countrymen how skilful and artistic
these particular Filipinos were.
mo" said the chief with a lordly
wave Of the hand You shall not buy.
You shall take as a gift" Whereupon
he quickly removed his trousers and
handed them over with the unblushing
grace of child of nature.
The young lady hastily resumed her
English tongue and the other ladies of
the party confined their further impor-
tunities to women Of the tribe.-Boston

CAUSED BY FRIcTIoN.-"I hope there
will be no friction" said Representa-
tive Wadsworth to Representative
Sherman the other day, according to
the Washington correspondent of the
New York World.
"Friction?" said Sherman did you
ever hear of the farmer up in the Mo-
hawk Valley whose barn burned down
and who could not collect from the in
surance company"
II come from the Genesee Valley,
where such things do not happen"
said Wadsworth, gravely.
HUH" retorted Sherman. "I'll tell
it, anyway. The farmer went to the
office of the insurance company and
demanded his money.
Nothing doing" said the manager.
THE fire was caused by friction, and
friction doesn't co.
"Friction!" expostulated the farmer
mo such thing"
"Oh, yes" and the manager smiled
grimly. 1T was the friction caused
by rubbing a $4,000 policy against a
$1,000 barn.

His Good Little Boy.

John Wilson was thrifty mechanic
with a nice home, a CHEEKY wife and
three children, the youngest Of whom
was a boy, named John. The elder
John was a pious Christian man, who
tried faithfully not to commit the Sin
of idolatry in his feeling for his son,
but it was impossible. He worshipped
the boy. The young John, then five
years old, was a real boy in all the
term implies. His father was sure he
was the best that ever lived, and al
ready he saw IN him as man preach
ing good to all men, for that was the
hope in the elder Johns bosom.
One day when the father came back
from the shop he brought with him
pretty tin cup on which was written
in gilt letters, ITO a good boy" He
gave it to his son, and the child looked
up into his face like an angel and smil-
ed. Two days later as John wilson
came homeward when the day was
done, he was thinking proudly OF his
boy who would meet him at the gate
when his attention was attracted by
a dog coming lickety split down the
street with a tin cup tied to his tail
and knocking a ragtime out OF the
sidewalk. Before Mr.. Wilson could get
out of the way the dog dashed between
his legs, upsetting him into coal hole
and piling in on top Of him in a tan
gle that was terrific. The dog got
away at last, and when policeman
helped the bruised and battered me-
chanic out Of the hole he discovered a
string wound around his leg and at
tached to the end of it a tip cup which
looked as if it had been through seven
wars.
You can keep this as a souvenir,
said the policeman, pleasantly.
What is it," asked John wilson,
taking it.
Its a tin cup belonging to some OF
them little devils around the corner, 1
guess" said the policeman, twirhng
his club significantly.
The father Of John Wilson, Jr., look
ed at the battered tin cup In his hand.
In gilt letters, which he had not for
gotten, were the words, ITO good
boy."-Detroit Free Press.
