Fun In the Home.

Don't be afraid of a little fun at
home. Don't shut your house lest the
sun should fade your carpets and your
hearts lest a hearty laugh shake down
some of the musty old cobwebs there.
If you want to ruin your sons, let
them think that all mirth and social en-
joyment must be left on the threshold
without when they come home at night.
Young people must have fun and re-
taxation somewhere. If they do not
find it at their own hearthstones, it will
be sought at other less profitable
places.
Therefore let the fire burn brightly at
night and make the homestead delight
full with a. those little arts that par
ents so perfectly understand. Don't re-
press the buoyant spirits of your chill
dren. Half an hours merriment around
the fireside of home blots out the re-
membrance of many a care and annoy
ance during the day, and the best safe
guard they can take with them into the
world is the influence of a bright little
domestic sanctum.

Alice Moore McComas.

That plucky and untiring newspaper
woman. Mrs. Alice Moore McComas, is
in PARKWAY South Africa on a tour with
her gifted daughter, Carroll-"Carroll
the Whistler" The young lady, who
whistles like a hooking bird, is likewise
an actress and a trained dancer. An
advantageous offer to exhibit her ac-
complishments on the stage in Europe
was made to Miss Carroll, whereupon
Mrs. McComas gave up for the time her
W aims to accompany her daughter
on the tour. 1t has extended beyond
what was at first expected, and Carroll
and her mother are now in South At
RIGA, Carroll meeting with great sue
cess. a note was recently received by
a friend from Mrs. McComas in johann
nesburg. She writes of South Africa:
This is a wonderful country, with a
great future. The people are of the
right sort. and the country is rich in
resources"

You may not know enough to advise
u statesmen about the tariff, and as
none Of them seems to understand the
matter it is very possibly too deep for
any of the present generation, says a
writer in Harper's Bazaar. But the care
of the streets, the construction of the
school buildings and much concerning
the conduct of the schools themselves,
the disposition of garbage and ashes,
the position and maintenance near
towns of nuisances like abattoirs, soap
factories Inc chemical works, which
many times cause great discomfort and
ever epidemics before n maddened pub
lie opinion roots them out and puts
them where they ought to be-all these
matters are a part Of the government
as much as the currency and the tariff
and the foreign policy. All these affairs
come under the head of municipal
housekeeping" and woman should feel
as responsible for their conduct as men.

has grown up since the civil war can
do nothing, and the blacks are often
idle and vicious" A young colored
woman, Jennie Dean, of Manassas,
Va, realized the truth of this charge
against her people better even than the
whites did and set herself to remedy
it. She had only good health, determi-
nation and an expert knowledge of
cookery. Behold! With that capital
she has established and now maintains
an industrial school farm Of 1875 acres.
1t has a dozen excellent buildings, in
which are taught to negro boys and
girls skilled trades of all kinds. Girls
learn cooking, sewing. general house
work and child's nursing. Those who
desire are also perfectly trained in
poultry raising and dairying. The
name of the enterprise is the Manassas
Industrial school. Jennie Dean saved
her own wages as an expert cook. She
next reused the ambition of the negroes
themselves around Manassas. White
friends both north and south aided
Jennie in her work. The mayor of
Manassas says the empty Jail of his
town is due to Jennie Deans industrial
school.

and sanitarians and governesses, who
would give the infants loving, likewise
hygienic, care. The parents of the
children meantime may have access to
them at any time. When Mrs. Gilman
promulgated her plan she was met by
a shower of imprecations. 1t was said
she would break up the family, that
foundation stone itself of civilization.
Now, however, comes a move looking
toward putting into practice the very
suggestions of Mrs. Gilman. More
over, it emanates from the inner cir
Gle of London social high life. In that
city has been started a children's hotel
and nursery, where rich peoples little
ones may be taken care of permanent
1y and at the top notch of style and ten
derness, the parents paying literally
for the same. In London at least there
must have been a demand for such an
infant hostelry or it would not have
been established.

The Conventional Idea.

Recently a very black negro appeared
in the mayors office in New York city.
He conveyed a negro woman under his
wing. "Tm the Rev. DR.. Cooper, sab,
of North Carolina, sab, and she's my
wife. 1 want a divorce from her be-
cause she won't obey what 1 tell her.
She's a good girl, but she won't obey,
and l want the mayor to give me a di-
%vorce." The Rev. DR.. Cooper had the
usual ideas of masculine supremacy
ever though he didn't know enough to
know the mayor could not grant d.
vorces.

is that not every mother is wise enough

in the interest of the race if public

1t seems a little strange that Presi-
dent Roosevelt while urging congress
to pass freight rate legislation would
appoint railroad attorneys to the fed
eral bench. The railroads have the
right of appeal from the decisions of
the interstate commerce commission
to the federal courts and if the judges
presiding in those courts are biased in
favor of the railroads, the shippers
will have a slim show. Sometimes
railroad attorneys promoted to the
bench may rise above the influences
that once controlled them and become
fair and impartial judges, but in other
cases there is danger that they will be
true to their first love, like the ass
that knoweth mis- masters crib and
the OK that knoweth his masters
voice.

US for the fact that here every man

to rise in the world by his own efforts.
We are glad that the distinguished
Chinese traveller got this impression Of
America. 1t is the ideal with which
America started on it's career as a ma

nation up at various crises in it's his

dividual was very strong in the early
days of the republic. 1t persisted as
the ideal of the country even to the
point of a great internecine war.
The leader Of that war, Abraham
Lincoln, however, said that the prob
lens that would come after the war
were greater than those of the war
itself. The square deal is one of those
problems. How to reconcile our vast
material development with individual
liberty and initiative is the problem of
America today.

A CROSS ENGLISHMAN.

w. H. McCrossland, an unreformed
Englishman, who, a few years ago,
wrote book to show how much he
detested the Scotch, has written an
other and this one is about the Irish.
The curious thing about it is that he
lays all the woes Of Ireland to the
Scotch. when you see number of
drunken persons in Ireland you may
safely assume they are Orangemen and
of Scotch descent" Scotchmen, he
says, are ahectoring, staggering, dull
witted, bandy-legged, plantigrade folk.
Ever since the days of James the
Sixth of Scotland and First of Eng
land who earned the title of the wis
est fool in Europe" there mas been an
English prejudice against Scotchmen.
The reason of it's implantation was
that James was followed to London
when ne succeeded Queen Elizabeth
by a crowd Of hungry Scotch mobiles.
The Scotch, having lost their own, took
possession of the English court, and
having a Scotch king to back them,
were able to do it. Scotchmen have
very generally ruled the empire ever
since and done it we'll. Great Britain
has developed quite creditably under
Scotch domination. Scotchmen have
supplied England not only with ner
rulers, but with her literature, her
philosophy, her whiskey.
Whenever England had big prob
lem on hand it took a Scotch states
man to solve it and an Irish soldier to
do the work. The Englishmen supplied
the money and afterward employed
they mad done themselves. But know
ing we'll they had not done it, the Eng
lish hated the Irish and despised the
Scotch.
The most maddening thing about the
Scotch is the way they distribute
themselves politically. When the tor
les carried the election they had a golf
player named Balfour ready for pre-
mier, and when the liberals carry the
next election the Scotch will be ready
with a brawny Individual one Cav
mil' surnamed Bannerman for prime
minister The whole business makes
the English so mad they are almost
ready to abolish the house of commons
to get rid of their masters.

Crystalized Poison!

Your blood is always full of poison-the posion you eat and drink and breathe into your system It is the purpose of the blood to absorb and carry off this very poison. And the kidneys, which are the blood filters. are expected to cleanse the blood and send 1t back through the sys- tenn clean, to gather more poison which. they, in turn, will eliminate.
 But sometimes the kidneys fail And sometimes. from some other cause, the blood gets so full of poison that they can not absorb it all This is the start of Rheu- matism. The poison accumulates and orystalizes. The crystals look like little grains of sugar or of fine white sand The blood carries them and they increase in size Then. when it can carry them no longer, it deposits them in a joint--on a bone-anywhere.
 The twinge in your leg-the dull ache in your arm on a rainy .day-these are the outward signs of the unseen crystals. And the twisted limbs and unspeakable an- guish of the sufferer who has allowed his symptoms to go unheeded and unat- tended for years-these are the evidences of what Rheumatism. neglected, can do.
 Rheumatism includes lumbago, sciatica. neuralgia. gout-for all these are the re- suits of rheumatic poison in the blood.
 Plainly the first thing to do is to re- move the poison. But this is not enough. The formation of the poison must be stopped, so that nature may have a chance to dissolve and eliminate the erys- tals which have already formed. Unless this is done there can be no cure-no permanent relief.
 I searched the whole earth for a spe- cific for umatism-something that I or any physician could feel safe in pre- scribng-something that we could count on not only occasionally, but always For the ravages of Rheumatism are every where and genuine relief Is rare.
 Mild cases are sometimes cured by
