essential changes without delay, and at the

The propagating of advanced socialism by the
radical socialists of Chicago has taken the form
of conducting Sunday schools where the name
of God is never heard, but where hatred Of the
rich and the downfall of constituted government
are preached. and the tenets Of advanced social
ism are taught to boys and girls of tender years.
Never in the mildest utterances of the teachers
is the name of the Deity spoken. and the Bible
has no place in any of the institutions War
like even revolutionary, hymns sung by the
little ones. who later on will continue the cru
sade begun by their elders for the crushing OF
the earthly powers that are alleged to hold labor
in their grasp The leaders who control these
schools are much gratifed by the progress made

Most persons imagine that the various
kinds Of woods used in furniture-mak-
ing are the products of some particular
kind of tree; but the names are simply
invented by the workers in fine woods
to distinguish particular material The
terms refer entirely to the graining
shown by the different methods of cut
ting oak, walnut and maple. Bird's-eye
maple Is G veneer set upon body of
solid wood. The bird's-eye figure is pro-
duced by cutting round the log, begin
ming Immediately under the bark and
continuing till the log is used up. The
thin shaving thus obtained is smoothed
and polished to show the grain and then
mounted upon rougher material Furni-
ture made In this way, though beauti-
full, is therefore somewhat perishable.
The veneer obtained from the sugar
maple tree IS the finest produced. Quar-
tered oak is made by saving fine oak
into quarters-hence the name-and
then saving the quarters into
boards, working from the circumfer-
ence to the center. Thus the fake, as
the wood workers call the beautiful fig
ure In quartered oak, is brought out.
Curly walnut is the root and that part
of the trunk In the walnut tree that is
just above the ground. The logs are
sawed In the ordinary way. Curly wal
nut Is obtained from all the species Of
the trees. Curly birch is the same kind
of wood obtained from the birch tree.

MOST ADReH OF feseEss


A man has recently been on trial be-
fofe the Paris ass.zes who Is pro.
notInoed by the police Of that city the
most skillfnl forger ever apprehended.
His name is Pierre Giraud, and at for
mer trial, after two examinations by
experts in handwriting, a document
forged by him was attributed to per-
fectly innocent man, who was sent to
prison for five years.
Giraud is only 50 years Of age, but
he has had a strange career. At the
age of 10 he was sent to reformatory
because of theft, leaving at the age Of
IS to join the army, where his good
conduct enabled him to become a SER
geant. He then obtained employment
Mt the Paris octroi and subsequently at
the Bank of France.
During the whole OF this time he OBJ
tanned important sums of money from
number of provincial banks by means
Of forged checks and bills of exchange.
He began at Epernay in 1891, and OBJ
tanned two sums of $50 francs and

1892 he was at Paris, and obtained a.
600 francs, and few months later he
attempted TO cash a check for 1870
francs at Orleans. but was unsuccess-
full. In 1893 at Chalonsur-M Marne he OBJ
tanned $500 francs, and later in the
year he was at Nevers, where he made
1890 francs.
The next day he was Mt Troyes; result
Of the visit, 42.5O0 francs at three diff
ferent banks. In 1895 he tried to work
his little game in Chambery, but the
bankers refused to cash his bills. In
1899 at Lavel he succeeded in obtaining
5000 francs He continued in this way,
sometimes with success, sometimes
with failure, until arrested.
His method was to dress as an army
surgeon, call at the bank with his
forged documents, change into civilian
clothing in a cab while on the way to
the railroad station, and appear next
day In Paris at his usual occupation

The fight for supremacy in the next
Congress will be settled by the election
OF Speaker and the only candidate
So far mentioned. who mas shown any
sign Of tariff reform sentiment, is
Chairman Babcock, and his reputation
for 1t rests on the bills he introduced
to amend the steel and iron schedule.
As Mr.. BabcOck did not demand that
these bills should be considered by the
ways and means committee. his repu-
tation as tariff reformer rests on q
very slim foundation, and 1t was the
common talk of political circles in
Washington that he only introduced
the bills to be on record in the right
direction. without any idea of taking
any decided stand in behalf of such re-
form and in fact did not favor 1t.

Republicans Must I-eEtslatc.
The Republicans are now sailing with
fair wind, and on the crest of wave
Of seeming prosperity. How long will it
last? There are ominous signs of n
financial storm. That barometer of
business, the stock market, is on de-
scending scale, and incipient signs of
a panic are observable TO those who
look beneath the surface.
One cause of the financial trouble
that is surely coming is the high prices

family with limited income cannot
spend more than Is earned, If the ne

tanned at high level, as they have in the
past year or two; those with small
fixed incomes will have to continue to
curtail their expenses to make both ends
meet. The laborer, the mechanic and
the clerk find the coal bill, the meat
bill and the rent have advanced beyond
their means to meet, unless some of the
luxuries are dispensed with, or poorer
or cheaper clothes are made to do.

The Blood.

The blood is life. We derive from the
blood life, power, beauty, and reason. as
the doctors have been saying from time
immemorial. A healthy body, fresh np-
pearance. and generally all the abilities
we possess depend on that source Of life.
1t is therefore the duty Of every sensible
Iaan to keep the blood as pure and nor
NAL as possible. Nature, In its infinite
wisdom, has given US q thermometer in
dicating the state of the blood. which
appeals to our reason by giving notice of
its impurity. Small eruptions of the skin,
to which we scarcely pay any attention,
headache, ringing noises in the ears, lassi-
tude, sleeplessness, are generally sign
that the blood is not in its normal state,
but is filed with noxious substances.
These symptoms deserve our full atten-
tion. If more attention were paid to
those symptoms, and steps taken to re-
move them, then many illnesses from
which we suffer would become unknown,
and the human body would become
stronger and healthier. Attention there
fore should be paid to those warning
signs, and the blood can be purified and
poisonous substances removed from it by
the use of DIR. August Koenig's Hamburg
Drops, discovered more than sixty years

As to Presidential Candidates.

The Republican newspapers are quite
busy bringing forward candidates for
the Democratic nomination for Presi-
dent, and finding fault with those that
are considered active candidates. This
is a good indication that the Democratic
candidate will have a good chance for
election, or the Republicans would not
bother their heads about who he will
be- Whoever the candidate Is will be
acceptable to at least twO-thlrds of the
party. as it requires that majority In
