Largely With the
Women Themselves

I'VE want the of this country to set a higher
standard of respectabity for At present the
women too lenient toward and too forgivng Of bad
conduct" The words are by Judge William McEwen,
of Chicago in address before Womans club of that
city
Th'y are tue words. So long a man hide
his moral leprosy under evening clothes and remain
respectable long will he cling his moral leprosy,
And long this sort of is received in society
by good women so long will he be respectable" 1t is
almost ncomprehensble how women will smile upon men
whom they know to be corrupt Leniency this regard
is treason to the womans
Judge McEwen goes on to Il remember a
day when drunkenness regarded novel pastlme.
But sentiment against it sprang up among the women
and the evil has greatly abated Drunkenness ceased
to be respectable when put the ban upon it, Yet
the drunkard is harmless idiot by the side of the ber
tine. When woman receives of loose morals
on equal terms she Is being kind to serpent which
outyenoms all the Nile" The judge is right. What
he says is not all new but is of the things that
must be said over and again. Women must adopt
a stricter code of morals toward men.

HOOLIGAN COMING CHRISTMAS

One of the realistic scenes in Hoo
ligan in New York" which will be
seen for the first time in Albuquerque
on Christmas afternoon and night, is
the actual reproduction of an opium
joint in Mott street, in the heart of
New York's Chinatown. The scene
shows a Chinese laundry, and back
of it the den wnere wretched victims
of the drug inhale the poppy fumes.
Mr.. Kenyon, under whose supervision
the scene was produced, was formerly
an attache of the United States lega-
tion at Hong Kong. While there he
learned to speak the language of the
country, and on his return to New
York he made a careful study of the
Chinese quarter in that city. His
ability to converse with them in their
native tongue gave him opportunities
which few white men of education
have secured, and he has staged a
scene which is thrillingly realistic and
correct in every detail.

FRED WARDE COMING

Mr.. Frederick Warde, who appears
at the Elks' opera house Friday after
noon and evening, gives this advice to
young orators: Speak every word
clerly and distinctly. DO not use EN-.
phasis unless you have something to
emphasize. Do not saw the air with
your hands. Never make a movement
unless you have a reason for Il.
Speak what You believe and then you
will have the consciousness OF integ-
rity that will put strength in your APP
peal Never lose your temper" Sin.
cerity and absolute belief in what one
has to say is, in Mr.. Warde's opinion,
the most important perquisite for a
good speech.

Jay Cooke.

The death of Jay Cooke will serve
to recall the fact that more than 80
years ago the banking house of which
he was the head became the financial
agents of the Northern Pacific Rail
road company
Perhaps no other man had so much
to do with assisting our government
to borrow money during the trying
years of the civil war, when the sta
bility of the nation was at it's lowest
ebb and its credit so badly shattered.
1t was largely through Mr.. Cookies
efforts with the banking fraternity
that the Lincoln administration raised
its first loan of $50,000,OO0 Because
of his faith in the Union cause and
his powers of persuasion over more
timid financiers, he became the gov
ernment's agent in the disposal of it's
bonds, and by 1864 had been able to
find market for s513,00O,OOO of them.
ut is to his labors more than to those
of any other man that the people of
this country owe the continued life of
the nation said General Grant dur
ing the last days of the war

HAD CA1ARRH THIRTY YEARS
Congressman Gives Praise to Pe-rl-na for His
Recovery.
Neglected Colds Lead to Ca
tarrh--Neglected Catarh
Becomes Chronic.

The fact that catarrh will continue
, to aff1ict one person for thirty years
shows how chronic the disease really is.
When catarrh has once fastened itself
upon the human system, it shows
| disposition to remain.
Catarh is not sef-curative nor seif-elim-
NATIVE. 1t continues as long as it IS al
lowed to remain.
Catarrh is naturally chronic disease
and continues to grow worse, not bet
| ter.
For thirty years Cong. Meekison had
catarrh, and yet he experienced cure
by the use of Peruna.
Surely, if Peruna will cure a case OF
catarrh that has run thirty years, it
| will cure more recent cases.
There are probably ten million Of uncured
cases Of catarrh in the United States alone.
What a multitude of victims this is!
What an ocean of discouragement and
unhappiness What a Niagara of an
guish and suffering.
In all probability Peruna would
quickly cure every one of these cases.
Taken according to the directions, Pc
runa rarely fails to cure any case OF
chronic catarrh.
Indeed, if it ever fails, it is because
of some complication entirely one side
from catarrh.
Troubled With Catarrh lifetime-Cred
I by Pe-ru-na.
Mrs. William Mann, sos Comley
Ave-, Niles, Mich, writes:
"After having been troubled with catarrh
all my life, Peruna cured me.
81 was so bad that l had lost the
sense of smell when l was about fifteen
years old. My head and nose were
continually filled SO that l had to
breathe through my mouth.
"There was constant dropping in
my throat. My general health was
miserable. felt tired all the time.
"About two years ago began to take
Peruna and feel like different person.
Now can breathe through my nose with
out any trouble, and the soreness in my
throat is all gone.
"Peruna has done so many wonders
for me that 1 gave it to my little
daughter who had bronchitis and il
helped her. l cannot praise Peruns
enough for what it has done for me-"
Used Pe-ru-na as Catarrhal Tonic.
Hon. w. E. Andrews, ex-congress-
man from Nebraska, writes from the
Treasury department, Washington, D.
c., as follows.
81 can cheerfully recommend your
preparation, Peruna, as healthful
tonic, and successful remedy for ca.
tarrh in its various FORMS"

Great Northern Money Maker.

The earnings of the Great Northern
railroad for the coming fiscal year will
amount to 20 per cent on it's stock,
according to the latest official esti-
mates. In six months already elapsed
considerably more than a full years
dividend on the stock has been earn
ed, after providing for 10 months
charges and taxes.
The remarkable showing in large
measure explains the recent advance
in Great Northern stock, although, C
course. an important factor has been
the fuller appreciation of the value of
the roads iron ore lands, which it is
estimated contain 500,0O0,00O tons OF
ore. These lands, at Charles NJ
Schwab's estimate of 81 a ton as the
value of the ore in the ground, would
be worth 100000. 900, or $500 a share
on Great Northern stock.

frank Busch Locks the Part of Noto-

Chicago.-Johann Hoch has double
in Frank Busch. Saturday at a police
station where Hoch once received wo-
men whom he married, Busch, who al
so is e prisoner, looked the part of
Hoch in every respect and talked with
the German accent, as does Hoch. In
fact Busch looks so much like the man
who has confessed to marrying II wo-
men that the victims whom Busch, it
is alleged, had robbed and who had
identified Hoch as the swindler, admit
ted they had made a mistake in iden-
tifying Hoch and picked out Busch as
the right man.
Busch, like Hoch, was not moved by
the identification. He would smile, like
Hoch, and at times utter witty express
sions- Busch, it is alleged, preyed on
women, but did not bar the men.
