A Borax Window Display.

Welcome B. Eastman has novel VIM
dow display that is attracting much at
tention. 1t advertises the borax that is
mined in death Valley" in southern Cal
ifornia and is brought through this val
ley by a string of 20 mules. Twenty
thousand pounds are brought out at one
time and the window display shows the
team drawn by this great string of mules,
all made of borax. AS background
there are two large pillars of crystallized
borax and the design shows up beauti-
fully under the electric light. The entire
display weighed 1900 pounds which
gives some idea OF the size and the
amount of borax used in the advertise
ment. 1t is one of the cleverest window
displays that has been seen hereto many

Judge Ide then paid his respects to the
anti-imperialists whom he said were rare
in number, but somewhat vociferous.
He said they reminded him of the farmer
who had so many frogs that he offered to
supply the New York market with seven
carloads. His offer was accepted but he
could only produce eight frogs. In ex-
planation he said the frogs made such
terrible racket that he supposed there
were as many as seven carloads.
president Mckinley said he should
make no more important appointments
than the Philippine commission. 1t is
government there of the people, by the
people and for the people. There are a
thousand municipalities and their muni-
cipal council is chosen by the Philippine
people, making a pure and absolute local
government. Every single official, with
one or two exceptions, is Filipino elect
ed freely by the votes OF the people. There
are 40 provincial governments and i've
officers in each province-the fiscal or
states attorney, the secretary, the gov
ernor, the treasurer and the supervisor
or civil engineer. The fscals and sec.
retares in each province are Fihpinos.
The governors are chosen by the presi-
dents of the municipalities, and with tlve
or six exceptions these are all Filipinos.
The treasurer OF each province is an Am
erican, and the supervisors are necessarily
Americans as there are no civil engineers
as vet among the natives. There are
three Filipinos on the commission, three
out of seven supreme court justices are
Filipinos, all but six or seven OF the Judges
of the first instance are Filipinos. Futher-
more Congress has providedin two years
for a legislative assembly, which will pro-
badly contain only Filipino members,
and will be the next branch OF govern
ment below the commission"
Eve have more efficient civil service
law than in the United States, several
| thousand Filipino teachers and 1000
! American teachers. There is a board of
health, courts all over the islands where
Justice is impartially administered; a
million dollars was appropriated at one
stroke for good roads, and four million
dollars for the improvement OF the har'
bors of Manila, Cebu and Iloilo. This
development, gentlemen, is not for ex'
plotting the Filipino for the benefit OF the
United States, but the one great aim O.
our policy in the Philippines is what car
xua do fo hetter the condition OF thf,
people who for 400 years had been mis-
governed by European monarchy
| Judge Ide was heartily applauded a
the close of his address and at IL o'clocl
the banquet was over.

AN UNPLEASANT EXPERIENCE.

Has 1t ever been your happy lot to be
told by your physician that you must
60 to a hospital and submit to an OPP
grafton? If so, you remember with
what dread and shrinking you awaited
the day when you must endure the
knife.
The present day surgeon appears to
be possessed by mania for operating,
especially in cases OF hemorrhoids or
piles. and while the greater number of
the profession do not recommend this
'last resort unless they honestly be-
lieve 1t necessary, the fact remains
that much needless operating is done.
and the patient put to much expense
and suffering for what?
To obtain possible temporary relief;
these words are used advisedly, because
In nine cases out Of ten the affection
returns and the patient Is just where
he started from. Oftentimes he could
be cured much more simply and cas-
fly by the use of such remedy as
the Pyramid Pile Cure; this has come
90 be recognized as the best remedy
on the market for the painful disease
named, and the druggists now sell more
Of Il than all other pile remedies COM
0ined.
The writer personally knows people
who were afflicted with the worst form
OF bleeding and protruding piles and
who were permanently cured by the
use Of Pyramid Pile Cure. In every
one Of these cases the attending ply
sician has assured the sufferer that
only by an operation could he rid him
self OF the disease: SO much for the
Instability Of the doctors.
This remedy, which is sold by ali
druggists at the low price OF so cents.
! ls in suppository form, is applied d.
rectly to the parts affected, and per-
forms Its work quickly and painlessly.

COMES TO STUDY in IOWA.
Noted English Educator Will Study tn
state University.

SS0S0 Ontv0TBlSys
Iowa City. Nov. 1o.-Mr. 7. Gregory

versity college, London, and a member
Of the Alfred Moseley educational COM

E. MacLean that he will arrive In Iowa
City, Wednesday morning. November
IL, to observe Iowa's State university
and its work. Professor Foster and
President MacLean were co-workers In
in the British museum OF London years
ago, but 1t is more especially on ac-
count Of the university's fame for Eng
lish work that this noted professor OF
English has been chosen especially to
visit the State university Of Iowa.
The present educational commission
Is the second commission which Alfred
Mosely has sent at his own expense to
this country to examine into conditions
and institutions as they exist in the
states. The first commission sent some
two years since reported the significant
fact that one Of the reasons why the
workingman Of the United States was
Of a higher grade than the laborer of
England was because the former en-
joyad better educational opportunities.
and 1t IL on account OF this report that
Mr.. Moseiey dispatched the second
commission here to examine into our
Nate and Industrial educational facil-
tiles.
President MaoLean met Mr.. Alfred
Moseley when he was abroad the past
summer. and the latter informed him
OF his intention OF sending the second
commission and also OF his intention to
aancofA hi. two sons in some American
university instead Of at Oxford.
