Conservatism is a good quality,

more seriously injure a country's
interests than conservatism

Handsomely Remembered AGAIN.

Mrs. Senator Elkins has remem-
bersd this department of the schools
with touching kindness. She has
long Leen a reader of our little school
paper, and has found matter in it to
invite her tender regard and en-.
couraging notice to the works of
the blind which has always appealed
to her singularly. Her thoughtful
generositles have blessed perhaps as
any varieties of human want and
p.inistered encouragement to as
many sorts of people as any other
steward of the manifold goodness of
God; but there is grace, dignity
and wisdom about her care for the
sightless that obliges one to think
that they are often and prayerfully
upon her heart. Only year ago
she placed In the hands of all our
pupils the neat little appliance by
which they are able to write in the
same tangible characters that are
used in printing their books. This
year she authorizes me to extend
this liberality to such of the school
and some others who have ceased to
be connected with it as were not in
cluded in the benefaction Of last
year.-W. Va. Tablet.

WOMEN AT PARTIES.
often Go for Fear of What Other
Women Might Saw.

Women Might Say.
The society reporter has made
great discovery during the week,
says the Nebraska State Journal.
In common with other people he
has been wondering why women
go to so many parties when the
effort often makes them so tired
that they can scarcely drag one
loot after another, and now She
knows. The lady who elucidafed
this problem says that she often
attends parties when she doesn't
want to 90 at all, because she is
compelled TO do so by the fear that
people will think she was not i'm.
yited. This accounts for the queer
assortment Of guests found at
many large parties, for this lady
seems to voice the sentiment of
many.

Under these conditions parties

The latter gives indubitable proof
that she really was invited. and
the hostess shows to her acquaint-
ance that she had the right to in.

that neither enjoys the others so.

press. They are a hardy and
thrifty race, and for generalintelli

PHILOSOPHY OF A TRAINER.
Negro Who Ran His Horse to Death
While He Slept.

While He Slept.
Charles Littlefield, according to
the Illustrated Sporting News,
tells the following "Reminiscences of
his early days as jockey, when
racing had a strong hold in the
south, some time before the war
1t was down near Alexandria.
La, lazy old negro known as
Uncle Eph," who had won a
spurious reputation as trainer of
thoroughbreds, because he had
been lucky enough to train two or
three good horses, was preparing
horse for a race at mile heats.
Eph was above all things an Opt
mlstic philosopher. Nothing that
could happen would he profess to
wish otherwise, and Mr.. Little
fields story aptly illustrates this
peculiar trait.
Uncle Eph sire tched himself in
the shade of n big live oak that
was growing in the iniield, not far
from the judges stand, and in
structed his little ebony exercise
boy to gallop the horse two miles.
The morning was hot one and
Eph was sleepy; so sleepy was he,
in fact, that he was just trifle ir-
ritated when the boy pulled the
horse to standstill in front of
him and asked for instructions.
Use done galloped him two
miles, sab shall go round agin ?"
Uncle Eph looked up, and, rails
ing himself upon his elbow, looked
sternly and reprovingly at the boy
and said: "Now you look heah.
you lazy, no account, little, black
niger, you just gallop dat horse
around dat track agin, and agin,
and agin, am you keep him goin'
TIL tells you to stop, dye heah?"
With the immediate responsible.
ity OFF his mind for the time being
Uncle Eph quickly dozed off, and
he slept soundly for two sole
hours, and in the meantime San
and the unfortunate. horse wer,
having a hot time. 1t ended as onl,
such a training incident could.
With the bride and saddle or
his arm little San kicked at the
old trainers ribs vigorously, with
this suggestion: "Come on, Uncle
Eph, let's go hum"
Uncle Eph yawned, rubbed his
eyes, and then sat upright, blinking
In owllike fashion at the hot sun
that had been fiercely beating
upon him for the last hour. Then.
looking about him, he turned to
Sam with the question: "Whar's
dat hosp"
"He done drapped dead over at
the halfmile pole"
whats dat you say, niger,
drapped deadw
Yes, he drapped mos ten min
utes back"
"Wal, | reckon it's jest as good
he did. If he can't stand work he
can't stand racin', an it's jest as
good he's dun fur. He won't cost
no mo oats nur no mo- trainin'

A BARGAIN for farmers.

The New York Tribune Farmer.
a national illustrated agricultural
weekly of twent large illustrated
pages, has no superior as thorough
ly practical an helpful publication
for the farmer and every member of
the family, and The publishers are
( determined to give it circulation
1 unequalled by any paper in the
United States.
Knowing that every enterprising,
up-to- date farmer always reads his
own local weekly newspaper, The
New York Tribune Farmer has
.Imade an exceedingly liberal arrange
ment which enables us to offer the
two papers at SO low price that no
farmer can afford to lose the oppor-
tunity.
The price of The New York Trib-
une Farmer is $1.C0 a year and The
Ceredo ADVANCE s1.OO a year, but
both papers will be sent for full
year If you forward $1.3O to The
ADVANCE, Ceredo, w. Va.

Stur0iss on LEGISLATION.
] George C. Sturgiss, in a lei

I! 80 George C. Sturgiss, in a let
er 70 the Wheeling News, makes
LONE suggestions for legislation at
sthe coming session. There is no
B doubt but what there is a decidedly
1 growing sentiment among the people
sfor legislation on the lines proposed
especially i'll respect to registration
law and more perfect primary and
election law. Following are Mr..
Sturgiss's suggestions as to needed
legislation:
AZ ga fair registration law, a more
perfect primary and general election
law that Will reduce the temptations
to spend large sums of money in
securing nominations and carrying
elections, the abolition of the free
pass, especially as to all State and
Ns,ySty officers, and a just system to
sstlats charges of railways and to
t9Flpel absolute impartiality in their
Aalings with shippers and travellers
In car service and in their relations
with all connecting lines, as well as
Z tax on gross income, and the
License tax or its equivalent, on the
orodustion of coal, oil and gas,
hould command the careful con-
liberation of the legislature and be
enacted.
''These constitute large program
and will tax the wisdom of the
Legislature, but the people will
be satisfied with nothing less,
and l hope will have your support"

S1.95 shoe

The fact of the matter is the
Ladies Shoes we are now sell
ing for S1.95 have all the ingred-
tents any $3.50 shoe can possibly
have, and the cut price is only
possible because Mr.. Poncin of
Bellingham failed, that we
bought his stock of shoes at a fat
discount, and to inject animation
into a usually dull season we are
willing to part with them at the
same ratio. Every pair bears
the imprint and trade mark of
c. P. Ford of Rochester, which
in itself is a guarantee of their
pedigree as a $3.50 shoe. Now
on sale at
