case in a series of controversial letters
with the late Prof. Max Muller, of OK
ford, won millions of adherents for the
Boer cause throughout the Father
land.
After McKinley's death the old pro-
fessor cherished the hope that Roose-
velt's Dutch ancestry would lead him to
bring about American intervention in
the Beers 'Sbehalf. He said that "since
1875 the United States, which won their
independence with foreign aid, had owed
he world a debt of honor which Roose-
yelt ought to discharge" 1t was pointed
out to the professor that the Beers had
had the moral sympathy of many of the
American people from the start.
THAT may be-" he replied, but Pla-
tonic love never bore children"
In 1901 Prof. Mommsen again stirred
the German people with an appeal in be-
half of university freedom, which he con-
ceived to be endangered by the kaiser's
proposed appointment of Catholic pro-
fessor to the chair of history at the Uni
versity Of Strassburg. He attacked the
emperor's proposal mercilessly, and raj
lied around him such a distinguished
array of scholars that the threatened in
novation at Strassburg was quietly
abandoned by order from the highest
quarter.
Last year, just when the kaiser was
travelling up and down the country, de-
nouncing the social democrats as abet-
tors of murder and enemies of the state,
Mommsen issued a brilliant manifesto,
hailing the socialists as the one political
party of Germany entitled to respect,
and advocating that liberal thinkers
flock to their standard. Hi5 appeal fell
on deaf ears, because German liberals
are hopelessly divided by factional strife.
yet the manifesto was a striking proof
of the historians personal courage and
unwithering mental power
Prof Mommsen has raised a family of
IS children and is surrounded by grand
children by the dozen. He lives In ex-
tremely modest style in big, old-fash-
| toned stone residence in Charlottenburg,
the lovely western suburb of Berlin. and
! spends his days in the bosom of his ex-
pansive family, now and then producing

W ACE, lace, in spite of the
- many abominable cheap inn
,E@H itations, the commonness OF
NAM IN its use. But the lace we are
,=4sss1eE7 to mention can by no means
AA=-eAzg be purchased for farthing,
he worn by every one. We refer to the
beautiful lace scarf, wide and long, very
like the kind worn by our grand
mothers.
The wearing of scarf is an art ana
had better be omitted altogether unless
one learns how to dispose it gracefully
how to carry it. The difficulty Is SINH
lar to the wearing of shawl; this per-
son looks like an old woman the mo-
mont she places a shawl or scarf on her
shoulders: that one looks graceful, cap
tivating. Then who is it, and who is 1t
not that can wear shawl and scarf?
Each must find out for herself, but we
should say plump shoulders and full
chest requisite.
The scarf is of lace, of null, of en-
broidered crepe, of soft silk; and happy
she who has one of the really old-an
heirloom. 1t would be we'll to consult
grandmother and great-aunt, to hunt
in attic and long locked up hair-cloth
trunk, for though the stores are show
ing beautiful ones of modern make, the
old-fashioned ones bear the mark of
gentility, and the creamy "old' look so
very desirable.
II one is hesitating about what to get
for stock and belt this fall word in
regard to the shaded ribbons may be of
helm. Two yards of six-inch ribbon for
the neck and just enough for the belt to
make a narrow crushed band; for the
stock, pass the ribbon around twice and
Je in a very wide, butterfiy-ey bow at
the throat. Soft liberty satin is eX-
nensive, and the very thin, soft taffeta,
which is much cheaper, answers the
nurpose quite as well.
Ribbons are very much used, and as
,,hbon. like lace and jewelry, is prop
artv. the fashion is good, economical
one Velvet ribbon appears as trim
ming in various ways, and usually is
very becoming and pretty.
Not much as yet can be said about
hats: the most noticeable thing is that
they reproduce in winter stuffs the
prevailing styles Of the summer; also,

favored combinations Red velvet for
narrow crushed belt and as finish for
stock is especially soft and pretty;
also shaded ribbon, shading from old
rose to geranium red, might well be
chosen.
Pipings will be used very much the
coming season. Pipings of gay silk in
different colors are used on the same
gown; yellow, black and white have
been observed on a gown of dark blue,
but personally we prefer pipings of the
single color. Buttons are employed TO
emphasize the color of the trimming,
and embroidered buttons are the ca
price of the moment, as well as buttons
embroidered in beads. A dark, plain
frock may be embellished and rendered
more modish by addition of some Of
these accessories, but the tendency for
over-trimming should be restrained.
Heavy mercerized cotton waists,
which resemble raw silk, are shown in
plaids as we'll as in dark blues -or reds.
, They cost something, but are very dur
able and wash we'll. Pongees in natural
colors, but fiecked with gay silk, will
make nice blouses for wear indoors, and
should not be lined.
The epaulette is decided feature Of
the fall waist, and is very long. 1t may
be made of galloon, with band of the
same down the front of the waist and
for the cuffs.
We picture one of the prettiest fancy
waists lately seen. 1t is fashioned of
black chiffon, black velvet ribbon and
white lace. The waist should be lined
with thin silk.

Staunton, Ark, Aug. 3lst.-News comes
from Duff, Searcy Co., this state, that Mr..
I. L. Reeves, Justice of the Peace at tnat
place, has written letter recommending
Dodd's Kidney Pills in which he says:
II thin Dodd's S Kidney Pills can't be beat
for Kidney Trouble, and wish them every
success"
The local j. P. Mr. E. B. Cox agrees with
his brother Justice on this point for he says:
Il had bad case of Kidney Trouble and
great distress bought six boxes of Dodd's
Kidney Pills and after l had used three
boxes 1 was all right. am as well as ever,

highly.

torily and quickly and they all speak highly
of Dodd's Kidney Pills"
No one disputes this unanimous verdict.

POWER IN GERMANY.
Prof. Mommsen Still Active in Pa
triotic Exhortation.
Although Nearly SO Years of Age the
Famous Historian Continues to
Lead an Active and Use-
ful Life.

"Who is the greatest living German?"
Fear of lese majestic might prompt the
naming of Emperor William, but more
nearly correct answer - that question
would be "Theodor Mommsen"-his-
torian, teacher and freethinker-the
Fatherland's grand old man. On Mo-
vember 30 of this year Mommsen will
have lived SO years. They promise to
find him hale and hearty, and with every
prospect of rounding out ripe four
score and ten. He has given way to
younger men in literary and professional
activity, but he continues in unimpaired
possession of his marvellous mental
equipment, while physically he defies
the ravages which come with advancing
years. Thin, silver hair falling to his
very shoulders in graceful waves gives
him the visage of kindly patriarch, but
the ideal is somewhat dispelled when, in
conversation, his eyes light up with the
fire of vigor and enthusiasm as he warns
to a subject in which his interest is
keen.
Mommsen has had opportunities ga
lore for the preferment and fame that
royalty can bestow, but titles and decora-
tions have never tempted him. He has
lived democrat, he says, and wants to
die one.
Since the completion of his crowning
work on the Roman laws. which has been
translated into every N odern language,
Mommsen has confine,i his pen to
brochures, letters and occasional articles
on current political topics. He is thor
oughly alive to the big events of the day,
at home and abroad, and prepared to
| lend vigorous voice in defense of cher
| ished ideals. Many Englishmen hold
him directly responsible for the wave of
Anglophobia, which swept Germany like
tornado after the outbreak of the Boer
war. A profound and consistent ad-
mirer of England, the English and Eng
| lish institutions, and fluent English
| speaker, Mommsen assalled the British
policy in South Africa upon high moral
| grounds. His presentation of the Boer

The Bible and the Empire State
EXnreRa.

A Bible student has recently been fgur-
ing on how long it would have taken the
people to make the journey from Dan to
Beersheba If they could have had the
benefit in the olden times of the Empire
State Express. He figured that the train
would have made this journey in less than
three hours, although from reading of the
account in the Bible one would thinkit was a
long journey, and it was for those days with
their limited means of transportation.
Ezekiel, the Chaldean prophet, had in his
minds eye something like the Empire State
in the first chapter of his prophecy. Look
this up and see if you do not agree with
the idea.-From the Troy Daily Times.
The New York Central is every day add
ing to the sum of human knowledge by its
marvellous passenger train service.
