of the Government in the Northern
Securities case. The Judges were
unanimous in deciding that the
Securities Company is a combina-
ton in restraint Of interstate COM
merce and illegal under the Sher-
man act. The Securities Company
is enjoined from securing any more
of the stock of the Great Northern

from voting the stock it already
holds. The railroads are enjoined
from permitting the Securities
Company to vote their stock or ex-
ercise control. The Securities Com
pany is ordered dissolved and the
stock of the railroads retransferred.
An appeal will be taken.

"If he speaks in the moon, will

Restitution.

Rev. L. 0. Herrold, pastor of the
Christian Church at San Jose, Cal,
must be an eloquent ana convinc-
ing speaker.
This is the story.
Many years ago man cheated a
woman d Wa 5ash, Ind. cut OF rs !.
The woman had forgotten about it,
but the chtater had not.
A few Sundays since the man lis
tened to sermon by the San Jose
minister on Restitution"
His conscience was stirred, and
after the sermon he approached the
pulpit, confessed his crime, gave
the address of the victim and hand
ed the minister $1O-$5 for the
principal and SIS tor the interest
requesting that the woman living on
the banks of the Wabash far away
be paid.
Every community in the land
needs that sort of preacher.
If the boodlers and shysters could
be moved to return their stealings,
the taxes of honest men would be
considerably reduced for time
thereby.
There ought to be fine opening
for Bro. Herrold in-well, say ST.
Louis.
And, by the way, has not the
modern preacher nearly forgotten
to insist upon the good old robust
doctrine of restitution. The old
divines hammered this belief into
the hearts of their hearers. True
repentance in those days meant the
righting, so far as possible, of all
past wrongs. Nowadays repen
tance is often preached as q sort of
mushy sentimentalism of sorrow,
having noregard to past sins.
Let. us have more Herrolds in the
pulpit.-Cincinnati Post.

SEVEN NEW BANKS.
Combined Capital Of Sl4O, 900
Small Banks Considered Good
Investments By FinanCiers.

The material prosperity of the
Commonwealth of Kentucky is evil
denced by tiIeuuprecedented volume
of business which is being trans
acted by its banks, and by the fact
that this volume is such that the
organization of new banks has be-
come necessary in order that it may
be cared for with convenience to
the public.
Seven new State banks were or
gsnized in Kentucky during the
first three months of the year, all
of them in small towns where bank
ing facilities heretofore have been
limited. These seven new banks
have combined capital stock of
$40, 900, and are all backed by
strong men. The new banks are:
Campton, Farmers and Traders
Bank, capital SIS, 900; Columbus,
First National, capital $50, 900;
Taylorsville, Peoples Bank, CAPT
tai $3.50 Cloverport, Bank of
Cioverport, capital $4,000; Clin-
tonville, Farmers Bank, capital
$l5, 900; Irvington, First State
Bank, capital $15, GOO; London,
Citizens Bank, Capital $25, 900.
Many small banks in towns in
Kentucky which are capitalized at
$50, 900 and $4,000 pay dividends
of 16 and Is per cent. a year, and
are considered as being among the
very best Investments. City bank
ers and Other financiers are becom-
ing more interested in country
banks, and many small banks now
number among their stock holders
names which are prominent in city
banking circles.

COPE

Like the running brook, the
red blood that flows through
the veins has to come from
somewhere.
The springs of red blood are
found in the soft core OF the
bones called the marrow and
some say red blood also comes
from the spleen. Healthy bone
marrow and healthy spleen
are full of fat.
SCOTS Emulsion makes new
blood by feeding the bone

the richest of all fats, the pure

"If You Have a Kindness Shown
You, Pass II on"

The Sunshine Society of Cincin-
natl, is an organization little
known to the average club woman,
seldom mentioned in club reports,
untroubled by the festive delegate
and yet is a household word to
many poor families in the tenement
districts Hundreds of little chill
dren owe the brightest spots in
their lives and the major part of
their moral and intellectual educa
tions to the little band of self sac
rificing women that forms the Gin
cinnati branch of the Sunshine So
ciety.
The society was organized in
1888 by Miss Rose Zenner, the
President, and is affiliated with the
National Sunshine Society, of
which Mrs. Cynthia Westover Al
den is President, with headquar-
ters in New York. The branches
report yearly to the main society.
The motto of the society is, IF
you have kindness shown you,
pass it on"
The society assisted the Public
Library in establishing ami main
tanning home libraries in tenement
houses, and the members alternate
in visiting these libraries twice
week, to read TO the children of the
neighborhood. Tuesday and Fri
day afternoons the children, in
clubs of -, meet at the home libra
ries, where an hour is spent in lis
tening to Sunshine visitor read
from story books, or books of
science, biography and history
After the reading the children are
encouraged to rebeat as much of
the story as they can remember, to
fix it more firmly in their minds.
Educational games are played and
lessons given in drawing, sewing,
homework and physical culture.
