Our Army the Best

Our army is the most effective and
efficient organization in the world.
The reason for this is the men are
well paid as well as well fed. Good
feed and good pay, however, will not
alone make good soldier. He must
have steady nerves, a good digestion
and strong constitution. To fight
disease il is also necessary To have
the same requirements, but if you
are weak and nervous, there is Il
medicine that will strengthen your
system. We refer to Hostettcr's Sto-
mach Bitters. For 50 years it has
been making weak people strong and
sickly people well. We therefore
urge YOU to try Il bottle and satisfy
yourself. 1t is Il specific remedy for
indigestion. dyspepsia, constipation,
fiatulency. nervousness, and malaria,
fever and ague.

FIRE LADDIES TO DANCE
TONIGHT AT THE ARMORY

The annual firemen's ball, which
takes place i'm the Armory this even
ing. will be something of an innova-
ton i'm that its degree of success Will
not be guaged 10y the number of
shcckels il leaves to the good. Of
course the proceeds, whatever there
may be. will be placed in the fire

this course has been decided upon *
that the fund * already considered
large enough To meet all reasonable
emergencies and there has never been
any demand upon il since il was
founded. For this reason the fire
laddies did not feel like adding
further to the burdens of present
and prospective city officers and the
prominent merchants this year.
Hence there has been mo advance
sale of tickets. Pleasure iS to be
the supreme object this evening, aud
the history of past affairs of the kind
leaves no doubt that there will be suf-

local chapter two votes in the con
vention. The ladies from here will
leave tomorrow at noon for Chicago,
there to join the other members of
the Illinois delegation.
Four cars, instead of three, as has
been stated, have been engaged for
the journey and there is to be the
largest delegation from Illinois
known in the history of the Daugh-
tiers, SO say the friends of Mrs. Deere.
Mrs. Deere and a party of her
friends arrived in Chicago today and
are stopping at the Auditorium.
They are confident of success. Con

OIher members say that there has
been talk of a division of the Chicago
chapter for the past three years be-
cause of its great size, but the fact
that all the members wished To he

has kept the organization together.
Recent Troubles the Climax.
The recent troubles, however, have
been the climax, these same MEM
bers claim, and they say many of the
women are ready to sacrifice the
name Chicago and belong to an
other chapter. 1t is believed by some
of the leaders that the anti-Wiles
faction will not withdraw in case
of Mrs. Wiles' defeat unless her
friends should control the board,
when a split is certain.
Mrs. Wiles. however. makes denial
of many statements in contribution
to the press ana likewise states she
is not a candidate for any other Of

The Belle of New York" with it's
tuneful music, its lyrical iiugles, its
pretty girls, gorgeous costumes and
clever comedians, is making its third
annual' triumphal tour of America
and comes to the Illinois next Tues
day. The music which Gustav Kerr
lier has supplied i'm this Casino mas
terpicce is of higher quality than
is usually found in productions of its
class. 1t has lived long after it's

While successes are oftimes attained

of bright and meritorious material.
The lyrics which Hugh Morton has
contributed To it are splendid

of the piece lends itself to elaborate

which is uncqualed aud its long life
and prosperous career is not to he
wondered at. The company this

Music In Sickness,

A correspondence has been proceed
ing in a contemporary Oh the interest
ing subject of music as therapeutic
agent. II is claimed, as it was afore-
time, that music hath charms-charms
other than those which enthusiastic
people seek even during midsummer
heat in concert-hall and drawing room
One Of the correspondents declares
that q beautiful air, even when played
on barrel organ, will frequently suf-
flee to mitigate or charm away pain.
Then there are cases quoted of rabid
fever cured by use of violin, and Sir
Andrew Clark and Sir Richard Quain
are mentioned as supporters of the
Guild Of st. Cecilia. All this may help
to persuade the professional unbeliev-
er that there is possibly something in
It," but we 10 not ourselves quite see
what examples are needed to prove
that distracted nerves and feverish
blood must inevitably by soothed by
gentle strains Of music. 1t is fact
selfevident. If music can charm away
worry and anxiety in the case Of
healthy people, how much more should
1t soothe the sufferer on bed of sick
ness. II this fact were more generally
believed, We have no doubt that many
a sick-bed would be rendered less in
tolerable to the sick person,-London

Purity Of the German Language

In spite of official efforts to maintain
the purity of the German language
the English words are creeping in.
Says an English journal referring to
q recent article in Die Nation:
"The English importations are Of
three classes. First there are the
words that are both written and pro.
nounced as in England, such as inter
yiew." clown, and bicycle - though
for this last the German often uses
the equivalent 'Fahrrad.' Secondly
there are the words that are written
as i'll English, but pronounced in Ger
man fashion, such as shawl tram.
way and 'beefsteak'-which latter be-
comes 'befsteck.' With these the Ger
main writer classes the mysterious
words koaks' and Ships which he
explains to mean respectively the
English coIes'-that is, coke-and
'necktie,' though it Is by no means
easy to understand how Germans
learned from us to call necktie a
Ships Thirdly come the loan-words
that are written and pronounced in
the German way-such as 'streik,' or,
in Austria, 'strick,' for strike, and
lori for lorry. Most of the words of
the first class relate to sport and food.
AS the Nation remarks, English tends
to become the international code of
sport, as Italian is Of music, and
jockey, handicap, match, goal, racket
and even ping-pong are terms as well
known and commonly used in Ger.
many as in England. The English
names of dishes are used far less ac
curately.
