and II a dark shade Ia used the rug
will look neat underneath without lin

heavy to handle as whole. especially

it Is better to cut the foundation into
two or three pieces and sew the pieces
together when finished.
Make bias q strip Of the carpet and
then cut It into stpips about one and
one-third inches wide. Sew one Of
these across the foundation directly
through the center Of the strip. Turn
% one edge and sew another strip
through the center also. ~ close to the
first - you can. continuing this proc
ess until the foundation Is covered
The stitching when Viewed upon thu

A NOBLE WOMAN GONE.
She Had Been Prominent in Educational
Circles for More Than Forty Years.
Special to The Clarion Ledger.


Crystal Springs, Miss, Jan. 2.
Mrs. S. M. Newton, the wife
of Rev. o. Newton, who for forty
four years has been proprietor
of Newton Institute, a seminary
known far and wide for the edu-
cation Of young ladies, died here
yesterday.
Mrs. Newton was in her 73rd
year-a native of North Carolina,
educated in Pittsield, Mass, a
daughter of DR.. Cotton, who from
1912 to 1850 was at the head of
the Hamstead Academy, Clinton,
Miss, the precursor of Mississip-
pi College.
Mrs. Newton was principal of
the jackson City schools during
this time, while her husband, the
Rev. O. Newton, was principal of
the Boys School of the same city.
Since then they have been at
the head of educational matters
here where they by their strict
integrity and exemplary lives
have turned the current of correct
sentiment into the lives Of all who
came under their tutelage, and
many student here and scattered
everywhere will with mournful
eyes, read the notice, while our
city, enjoying an unusual reputa-
ton for high toned morality owes
more to them than to any one else.
She leaves a son, Reed Newton,
of Seminary, and a daughter, Miss
Osma.
Mrs. Newton was well known
by many who were contempora-
ries in jackson. No woman in
this section has exerted a wider
and more benefcent influence on
the last generation of pupils.
At the time Of her death she had
in her school some. pupils who
are the grandchildren Of the pu-
pills she educated during the war.
She trained The consciences and
conduct. She was charter MEM
Der Of the Presbyterian church
of this place. She was undoubt-
edly strong character. Her in

Lincoln, Neb., Dec. 2.-In an
invitation signed by I. ID. Wor-
rell, Bryan Democrats ask all the
faithful to banquet Jan. Is. AT
ter telling the honors conferred
on Mr.. Bryan abroad, the call de-
clares:
Loyal Democrats, therefore,
deem it only fit and proper that
this splendid American citizen
and great Democrat be honor
ed by his fellow Democrats
upon his return home, and to that
end are arranging a dollar din
ner' to be held at the Lindell Ho-
tel, Lincoln, on Jan. Is, 1904.

quet in fact as we'll as in name,
given by Democrats who not only
refuse to apologize for remaining
true to the principles of Democ-
racy as enunciated in the Chica-
90 and Kansas City platforms,
but deny with due Democratic en-
phasis that they owe any apology
to Democrats who deserted the
party during those campaigns and
lent their aid and comfort to the
enemy. While standing ready at
all times to welcome the erring
and wandering ones back to the
Democratic fold, upon sufficient
evidence that in the future they
propose supporting the Demo
cratic ticket, the Democrats who
are arranging for this banquet to
Democracy's gallant leader de-
cline to step aside to make room
at the family table for those who
betrayed the household of the
faith. While it is true that the
departing ten tribes of Israel
marched forth with the gaudiest
banners and loudest sounding of
timbrel and Tyre, it is equally
true that the Ark of the Covenant
remained with the tribe of Judah.
The ark of the Democratic
covenant remains in the household
of the faithful, and they are cor
daily invited to gather ON the
evening Of Jan. IS, 1904, to again
renew their faith in Democratic
principles and gain strength for the
forthcoming struggle for the
control of the public's affairs.

Consumption

Salt pork is a famous old
fashioned remedy for con-
sumption. "Eat plenty of
pork was the advice to the
consumptive 50 and 100
years ago.
Salt pork is good if man
can stomach it. The idea
behind it is that fat is the
food the consumptive needs
most.
Scott sEmulsionisthemod
ern method of feeding fat to
the consumptive. Pork is too
rough for sensitive stomachs.
SCOTS Emulsion is the most
refined of fats, especially
prepared for easy digestion.
Feeding him fat in this
way, which is often the only
way, IS half the battle, but
SCOTS Emulsion does more
than that. There is some
thing about the combination
of cod liver oil and hypophos-
phites in SCOTS Emulsion
that puts new life into the
weak parts and has a special
action on the diseased lungs.
