A FAMILY AFFAIR.

"I raised family on Dr. Earter's I-oi Tonic', is a common expression in letter to Dr. Harter T. ; very true that ''i. famous remedy foes appeal to the family; it is common sense, everyday help-not patent medicine. There is no secret about it. Iron has been used to purify and strengthen the blood ever since medicine became a science. In the half-century of its existence Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic has firmly established itself as an ideal family remedy. It is good for the baby. good for the young folks, and good for adults. There comes to all of these, regularly, not necessar- fly sickness, but times when the blood needs to be purified and strengthened; thinking, sensible people take Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic at such times to prevent sickness. Keep the young people strong if you want them to sue ceed. When they are merging into manhood ana womanhood the system requires an abundance of iron.

Experts are Dangerous.

 There are scientific experts whose testi- muny is to h.. taken with respect. They deal in facts. For example, a chemist will find what proportion of poison is con tained in certain substance that may have been administered with mischicvous intent. A physician will describe an in- jury and toll 4i results and causes where shot or stah wounds are involved. An architect will h., able to explain how bridg- or building has fallen.

A Lesson for Minister Wu

Chicago Record-Hcrald
 The lesson for the Chinese Minister is that this country is no place for his people If there was no exclusion law. that would be plain from many success full conspiracies and many acts Of vio- lence, taking such incidents and the ex- clusion law together the evidence should be overw whelmIngly conclusive,
 Moreover. if MT. lVu retorts that Chi mas hostility to the foreign devils is as just and rational as our opposition to his countrymen, we might reply that the con- se0uences of white immigration intn China and of Chinese immigration into the United States are so widely and in- trinsically different that the parallelism will not hold.

that two persons will sit side by side at one of my concerts, one a lover or 'high-class music. the other with de- sire only for ragtime piece. By bringing the extremes in close contrast the grand old overtures seem erander and the street song sweeter and more entranc- ing. Why should any conductor refuse to play music which causes so much harmless pleasure?
 "Ragtime is not fad. as many have declared, and it will not die out. It pleases the God-giyen sense of rhythm and will endure as long as the warm blood flows in human veins-as long as the world shall stand. Call it what you will-ragtime is as good as any other name-it existed centuries before our time and 1t will go on for centuries to come after we have been forgotten"

BOILED AGAIN"
How the Princeton Students Failed
 to Capture Sir Henry Irving.

Princeton Alumni Weekly.
 A somewhat amusing situation devei- oped after the lecture hy Sir Henry lrN- ing, in connection with the efforts of the two halls to initiate this celebrated Eng fish actor Placards had been put up about town, saying there would be spe- cial met lings of the halls right after the lecture. So after Sir Henry had finished their address. both Clio and Whig held their special meetings the members of each guying the other across the campus, as they went into the halls, each being assured that the other was being out witted.
 A few minutes later they found that it was leg pull all around. for Sir Henry failed to appear at either hall, It seems that he had lnadVert rntly accepted mem hership in both Fortunately. he had to hurry back Co New York. where h. was finishing his American engagement, and it was learned afterward that while the halls were waiting expectantly for their distinguished neophyte, he had taken a train for the city.
