official program for rest, but during this
time he gave an audience to committee
of labor leaders who presented 10 him a
protest against the federal troops in the
steamsters' strike. The remainder of his
time from the moment that his train
came into the Chicago and Northwestern
depot at noon, until it drew out of the
Pennsylvania depot at thirty minutes at
ter midnight, was consumed by one lunch
con, three receptions, one banquet and
four carria ge rides.
From his arrival until his departure the
programme outlined for his entertainment
was carried through without delay, and
without an unpleasant feature or untoW-
ard incident
At Il O'Clock President Roosevelt left the
IrOQuois club banquet hall for his rooms
to prepare for the trip to the station of
the Pennsylvania road. Although a smart
rain was falling, a large crowd was gath
cred around the hotel entrance to see the
president depart. He came down quickly
and is soon as he entered his carriage the
escort of mounted police swung into line
and passed at a Hve2r trot north on Mich
igan avenue to Jackson boulevard, where

The station was kept entirely clear by a
strong force of police and the president
passing between their lines touching his
hat to the officers, who saluted him. as
he passed and entered his private car.
At u D. m. promptly the train pulled
out for Washington.

A New Germ Theory.


The most recently theory of scien-

upon the natural action of the stom-

Nfi-o-na tablets are rarely ILL., Taken

the stomach 50 that disease germs are
either neutraIized or else driven from

CLIMATIC CURES.

The inhuenc of climatic condition
in the cure of consumption is very
much over drawn. The poor patient
and the rich patient, too, can do
much better at home by proper at
tention to food digestion, and a regu-
lar use of German Syrup. Free ex-
pectoracion in the morning Is made
certain by German Syrup, so Is good
nights rest and the absence of that
weakening cough and debilitating
night sweat. Restless nights and the
exhaustion due to coughing, the
greatest danger and dread of the con.
sumptive can be prevented or stopped
by taking German Syrup literally and
regularly. Should you be able to go
to a warmer cliffie, you will find that
of the thousands of consumptives
there, the few who are benefited and
regain strength are those who use
German Syrup. Trial bottles, 25c;
regular size, 75c. At all druggists.

very little girl was taken by her
parents to prayer meeting at Plym'
outh church presided over by FIR.
Beecher. In giving out hymn Mr..
Beecher requested every person pres
ent who could sing TO do SO.
The response not having been suf-
fic.ently hearty during the first verse,
Mr.. Beecher before the second again
exhorted all to sing.
Come. brethren, If you have the
grace OF God in your hearts, let II
come out in your voices. Sing! All
together now! Sing!
The little girl took this as person
al appeal and hastily bethought herself
of the song dearest TO the heart; the
cry OF fruit vender who often
brought fruit to her home Accord
ing'y. when the verse began she let
forth her voice in a shrill cry OF
Strawberries! Strawberries! Straw
berries! The congregation faltered,
stopped and laughed, but Mr. Beecher,
not at all disconnected, called out,
