for it was he who urged and encour-
aged his wife to go into club life and
cheered her through her first moments
of stage fright and was so proud and
pleased at the general recognition of
her brilliancy and graciousness and
ability that she couldn't help being
pleased and proud with him.
Speaking of her travels-and even
as she spoke Mrs. Denison was dressed
and ready to go to big local club re-
ception as guest of honor"-she said
to a Brooklyn Eagle reporter: II had
a perfectly delightful trip in every
way. 1t seemed to me that each town
outdid the last | had visited in it's well
come. And those western club women!
They are such forceful, brainy, prac-
tical creatures. They don't seem to
waste so much time on unimportant de-
tails, but get right down to the meat
of the matter. | suppose that in our
eastern cities our various reforms and
charities and public works are so well
organized, so crystalliZed that there is
not so much for the clubs to. do But
out west the women's clubs are an ac-
tive living public force, doing things
that ought to be done, accomplishing
things that need accomplishing. Ard
their hospitality is not mere civility;
their politeness seems TO be q deep
seated courtesy that springs from real
Kindness.
81 think any one who had been on
my recent trip with me would have
realized the uses of women's clubs.
Possibly occasionally they would have
realized their abuses, too. But in the
main they do stimulate and develop.
And the club woman is not necessarily
a masculine, domineering, unwomanly
creature. She can overdo it, of course,
and sometimes clubs seem to become
an obsession with women. But those
are the women who are naturally i'll
balanced; if it wasn't clubs it would
be something else. OF course, a whole
lot of them take themselves with tre-
mendous seriousness and are awfully
funny.
This southern trip OF mine is prob
ably the last one | shall take as pTesi
dent of the general federation. Ny

UNIQUE PHOTOGRAPH FANS.
A Novelty from Germany Which Is
Destined to BECOME Quite Pop
ular in This Country.

OF the making of fans there appears
to be practically no end in Glese days,
and novelty and artistic results are
the dual aims of the designer and
manufacturer of these essential posses
sions of maid and matron. The French
man and the American are exceeding
ly adept as fan designers and con-
structors, but the newest idea in this
line comes from the land of the Teu-

I AM TIRED.
Everybody is Tired-Spring
Weather Does lt-EveryOne
Should Be Cautious.

Depression of the nervous system at
tie approach of spring is the cause.
General lassitudc, dull, heavy sensa-
regular appetite, and sometimes loss of
sleep. Peruna meets every indication
and proves itself to be perfectly adapted
to all their varied peculiarities. Peruna
invigorates the system, rejuvenates the
feelings, restores the normal appetite
and produces regular sleep.
That tired feeling which is the natural
result of the depressing effect of warm
weather immediately after the invigor-
ating cold of winter, quietly disappears
when Peruna is taken. Thousands are
daily testifying to it's priceless benefit.
Mrs. II. Kassatt, 1909 w. 18th street,
Des Moines, Ia, writes: 81 am happy to
give my endorsement for your valuable
medicine, Peruna, as consider it q val
liable medicine to take when the system
is run down from overworR. About

Washington, May 12.-The British Gov

troubles in Colorado. That Government
makes it a point to look after the hum
blest British subject, so when it happened
that in the troubles at Telluride. Launce-
I lot Collins. a Britisher and a nonunion
miner. was killed by strikers, as 1t was
alleged. the nearest British Consul. at
Denver. started an investigation and re-
ported the case to the British Embassy
here.
Sir Mortimer Durand. finding that one
of the allegations was that the man was
killed for lack of proper protection by the
authorities. called the attention of the
State Department to the matter.
The department in turn forwarded the
Ambassadors note TO the Governor OF
Colorado and the latter has now explained
that owing to the existence of martial
law in Telluride County it is not possible
to make the legal investigation required

British note
1t is expected that further proceedings
will be taken when the labor troubles in
Colorado are at an end, and IL II should
appear that the British complaint is well
founded, an application will be made TO
Congress by the State Department for a
suitable indemnity for the killing of COL
lins.
