THERE IS NO PEACE.
Lack of Harmony Made Prominent at
Iroquois Club Banquet.

Chicago, April 14.-Ways and means
to bring success to the Democratic
party in the presidential campaign this
fall were discussed by prominent Dem
ocrats representing every part of the
country who attended the IrOquOis
club banquet at the Auditorium in cei-
ebration of Jefferson's birthday. Tariff
reform, antagonism to trusts, indie
pendence for the Philippines and rigid
economy in public expenditure We're
some of the suggestions offered by the
speakers to bring about this result. n
feature of the banquet was the follow
ing letter from Grover Cleveland, who
had been invited to attend, but was
unable to be present:
I very much regret the necessity
which compels me to decline your
courteous invitation to attend the cell
ebration of Jefferson's birthday under
the auspices of the Iroquois club. 1t
is especially fitting at this time of con-
fusion in political ideas and misap-
prehension as to the meaning OF true
Democracy that the character of the
great exemplar of Democracy should
be fully appreciated and that his pO-
litical opinions should be better inter-
preted and understood. His devotion
to the interests of the people, his wise
conservatism and his constant adher-
ence to the public good always The
his acts and his beliefs to the careful
study of those who in these days, pat
TiOtically seek the welfare OF our. cOua-
try through the ascendancy of sa1e
and sane Democracy.
Trusting that the celebration of the
birthday of this great leader Will prove
to be both a source of pleasure and
profit to those who participate, atm

One of the notable sermons of her
life was given by this woman preacher
in the Congregational church of Oak

when the women of California were

adoption of a new state constitution.

GYMNASTIC EXERCISES TO
REMEDY AND PREVENT.

XX EITHIN a few months I have
WV seen little boy five years old
suffering from an attack of
rheumatism so violent and long con-
tinued that it is even yet a question
whether his life can be saved. Rheu-
matism is the disease of our time and
is more distressing than consumption.
There are ways. however, to stave off
it's most deadening work. When the
woman piano teacher, the dressmaker
or the lady who does art embroidery
finds her finger joints inflaming and
swelling, bony rings settling around
them and stiffening them apparently
for all time it is disheartening enough.
Lately piano player told me how she
had to a considerable degree prevented
this terrible stiffening process. It filed
her with despair at first; then she res
olutely determined she would keep it
OF. She said to herself, There is no
human i'll for which there is not a rem
edy." She took medicines; no good.
She applied unguents to the swelling
joints. She tried gallons of this. that
and the other. Finally she settled
down on the good old grandmotherly
prescription of goose oil. She heated a
jar of this every morning and held her
fingers in it. at the same time massag
ing them thoroughly. The fabrication
and the rubbing got rid to a considera-
BILE degree of the bony deposits around
the joints. The daily fabrication over,
the lady sat down to her piano and
played with the spirit of one who did
not mean to lose the power to play.
VIII and perseverance had much to
do with the keeping timber of the
lady's fingers. In her mind all the time
there was a, mighty purpose that she
would counteract the misfortune which
threatened to overwhelm her. That
went far. Then came the fabrication
and the constant finger gymnastics.
But you must keep at it year after
year." said the piano player. IF you
stop, the joints Immediately begin to
stiffen up and become like sticks"
Still, retaining the use of your fingers
is surely worth this trouble.
One day recently at matinee saw
on the stage a woman who performed
remarkable dancing and gymnastic
feats. She played the part of a holden

TEN HYeIENIc COMMANDMENTS


1. Rise early, retire early and fill
your day with work.
2. Water and bread maintain life;
pure air and sunshine are Indispensable
to health.
3. Frugality and sobriety form the
best elixir of longevity.
4. Cleanliness prevents rust; the best
cared for machines last the longest.
5. Enough sleep repairs waste and
strengthens; too much sleep softens
and enfeebles.
s. To be sensibly dressed is to give
freedom to ones movements and
enough warmth to be protected from
sudden changes of temperature.
z A clean and cheerful house makes
a happy home.
g. The mind is refreshed and invig-
GRATED by distractions and amusement,
but abuse of them leads to dissipation,
and dissipation leads to vice
g. Cheerfulness makes love of life,
and love of life is half of health. On
the contrary. sadnesFs and discourage
ment hasten old age.
10. Do you gain your living by your
intellect2 Then do not allow your arms
and legs to grow stiff. Do you earn
your bread by your pickax? Do not
forget to cultivate your mind and to
enlarge your thought.

mind you, upon hands and knees, but
literally walking upon the feet and the
palms of the hands It is a noble exer-
else for regaining the use of stiffened
muscles ana joints of the body.
Try it in the privacy of your own
apartment whether you are girl. mid
die aged or old woman. With no skirts
in the way. bend over forward and
walk upon your feet and hands as
though your hands were an animals
fore feet and you were the animal. The
all four locomotion puts the internal
organs into new and greatly chang
ed position. It rests, exercises and
strengthen them all at once. It brings
into action entirely new sets of mus
c!es and produces new combinations OF
those in nabitual use.

NO HOME YET FOUND.

Nearly Discouraged.

Nearly Discouraged.
The question of finding a new home
for the Topeka foundry was raised
at the Commercial club meeting last
night Mr.. o. A. Holcomb, joint
owner of the foundry, was called
upon to state what has been done up
to date in regard to the matter His
response showed that the matter
stands at just about the same place
as when it was first agitated.
He said: Il have found that peo-
pie are chary about investing money
in a manufacturing plant; in fact, L
might almost say that a manufacturer
is barred. You can easily get money
and aid for places in which to live,
private dwelling houses, but it is an
other proposition that you meet when
getting aid for a factory Eastern
cities supply factories with sites, give
them financial aid. and tax exemption
for a number of years This is done
to very large extent in Cleveland
and Cincinnati, and I have no doubt
adds much to the oDulence of those
places. In Topeka manufactures

Anna Shaw continued to preach to
the two congregations in Dennis while
she was studying medicine. She was in

theological course.

work for the emancipation of woman

Many a time she has crossed the CONT

American Home" THE Relation of
Woman's Ballot to the Home" and

Republic" An amusing and original
feature of her lectures on woman ton
fcs is her question box. She asks her
audience to write any question they
like connected with the subject in hand
and send it to the question box to be
answered. She takes the questions and
answers them one by one. In knowI-
edge and in the logic Of the situation
she is armed at every point, from
the constitution of the United states to
the care of a baby with the Group.
Statistics, facts, history, are stored and
ticketed in her brain where she can
instantly lay a mental finger on them.

is a power of wit and epigram unsur-
