NOTICE TO ADVERTISERS:
NOTHING PERSONAL ABOUT 1T.

No reflection upon the competency,
efficiency and fidelity of the police force
was intended by the Statesman yester-
day in it's criticism of the change to
the eight-hour system. Chief Brown
mas a fine crops of assistants and the
Statesman has no fault to find with any
of them.
However, when it comes to consider
alton of the change from tewlve-nour
shifts to eight hour shifts, business
men and taxpayers generally will ques-
ton whether the city is getting the
benefit it should receive from doubling
the police force at heavy expense to
the city. Mayor Hunt recommended to
the council that the police force be
increased to correspond with the
growth Of the city in the last five years,
but he said nothing about cutting down
the hours of service from twelve to
eight hours. No member of the council
at the public sessions mas made any
such suggestion. While it is generally
admitted that a twelvenour shift is too
long, it is the general opinion that an
eight-hour shift for job in which no
hard manual labor is required is too
short. The principal object of increas-
ing the police force was to get more
men on duty at the same time, not to
make easy jobs for the city's finest.
A ten-hour shift would be about the
right thing. Say four men went on
duty at 5 a. m. and worked till p. m.
and that four men went on at p. m.
and worked till a. m. That would
leave one man in the office at night and
another to cover the usually quiet time
from to s a. m. A better arrange
ment tnan this could probably be made,
but this is merely suggestion. The
people who pay the bills have right
to an opinion on this question without
being suspected or accused of hostil-
ity to the chief of police or his faithful
men.

In the treaty of San Stefano Russia
stripped Turkey of nearly all her Eu-
ropean possessions, setting up all
around Constantinople principalities
which were really satrapies of Russia.
She seized Turkish territory at the
mouth Of the Danube river and an
nexed important Turkish towns in
Asia Minor. In addition she claimed
an indemnity of 100000, 900 roubles
for losses imposed upon Russia in the
contest"
1t is true the congress of Berlin
added to and subtracted from the
treaty of Son Stefano, but it repre-
scented Russia's idea of decent peace,
and it's terms are hard and wicked
compared with the moderate demands
Japan is making today after a war
forced upon her by big bullying adj
versary, who is cutting a very sorry
figure in the role of an abused indi-
vidual in the conference at Ports
mouth.

MAUD COMES FAILURE.


Maud Come, who recently obtained
a divorce from her husband, Major
Mcbride, feels free to advise women
that marriage is not the best guaran-
tee of their future happiness.
Maud Come made failure of her
married life but it wasSone that might
nave been predicted. She met Major
Mcbride when she was at the height OF
ner notoriety as an agitator. He was
smitten with her as one of the stiles
who go to the matinees might be smit-
ten with an actress. He did not know
her temperament and she did not know
his temper. Both appear from the
records of the divorce suit to nave
been something fearful and wonderful.
If he had married her because he
wished to second her ambition to do
something for Ireland or if she had
married him because she wanted to
give up her public career and make a
home for herself and her husband,
they might have made a success of it,
but it was a marriage without a ra-
tional motive, and it ended as such
marriages very often do, where neither
party has the grace or the philosophy
to make the best of a mistaken bar
gain.

CHURCH MEMBERSHIP.

Josh Billings said: Il like to see a
man as honest when he is measuring
a peck of onions as when he is shout
ing hallelujan."
The humorist hit off in this con-
densation the philosophy of real church
membership. The people like to see
a man who can say amen to his own
acts as heartily as he does to the words
of the preacher. They have not much
use for the sharp practitioner who
uses up all his religion on Sunday and
mas nothing left for the weekdays fol-
lowing.
Churches do not appear to realize
that in their efforts to draw others
into their membership they are judged
not by the preachers eloquence, but
by the kind of men whose names are
on the church roll and who occupy the
pews, especially by the prominent men
whose names are known and whose
regulations are more or less public
property.
Some of the most prominent men,
bers of the churches are it's greatest
bar to success with the masses. They
are known to give large sums to the
support of the church while they car
on their business very much as though
they did not belong to an organization
which imposes honesty and squar'
dealing, charity, justice, mercy and
forgiveness. They are in the church
but are very little Of it. Many men
refuse to enter a church door because
they do not care for sucn association
of members they see about them.

ONLY A SUGGESTION.

Under the rules of the water de-
partment all consumers are fined who
do not pay their water rent before the
fifteenth day Of the month. Did it
ever occur to the city authorities that
ne office hours of the water depart
ment are not convenient for the aver
age citizen who works certain num-
Der of hours a day? The water Office
opens at eight o'clock in the morning,
an hour after. the average working
man goes on duty, and closes at five
o'clock in the afternoon, an hour be-
fore the average wOrkingman gets off.
The office is closed at the noon hour.
Thus it is seen that it is not easy for
the majority of water consumers to
visit the water office at time when
it is open. Would it not be good idea
to- have the Office kept open at noon
or an hour or two in the evening for
two days before the 18TH?

THE NEGRO PROBLEM.

Edward Atkinson, writing in the
North American Review Of the negro
problem, declares it to be one of edu-
cation. He resents the effort now be-
from the negro his status as a human
being and to remand 1im to the condi-
ton of a beast.
In 1880, he says, the curse of cotton
spread over the south. The profits
from the industry had brought tie
crop up to 100000 bales. In 1860 it mad
risen to nearly five million bales.
Shrewd, and far-seeig economists be-
gan to see that the cotton product
could not be maintained unless the
slave trade was reopened, for the gen.
Grafton of human chattels was unable
to keep pace with the demand The
cotton slave states were being grad
ually surrounded by free states in
which cotton was raised more econom-
ically by free labor than under the
waSteful system of slavery
The attempts to reopen the slave
trade failed and secession was resorted
TO. 1t cost the government $4,000. OOO.-
900 to put down the rebellion. Ex-
pressed in money, it meant $1,000 for
each slave freed.
Al this time Mr.. Atkinson was
warning the south in pamphlets of tho
reckoning which was coming as the
result of the system of slave labor. He
says in this article that upon his last
VISIT to the south he talked with one
OF the largest cotton growers and

RUSSIA'S TERMS TO TURKEY.

What would have been Russia's
terms? This is the question the Ameri-
can and European correspondents have
been asking frequently since the Port
mouth conference began.
Russia has not had many opportu-
mites of imposing terms upon civilized
nations She has not won many wars
But something of Russia's IDEAS of
fair terms may be learned from her
treatment of Turkey in the treaty of
San Stefano. The Turks had made a
notable resistance to the advance Of
Russia toward Constantinople, much
more creditable than anything Russia
has achieved in the present war, but
their resources were completely ex-
hausted in the spring of 1875 and they
were compelled to sue for peace.

If Nj. White should happen to need
money he can get it by reforming his
governments attitude toward the

THE HOME DRESSMAkER.
Some Helpful Hints About 4Nakins
I'm and Altering Clothes.

Some Helpful Hints About sNalxfns
Up and Altering Clothes.
The home dressmaker will find that
a few little tricks Of the trade are a
marvellous aid In making up and alter
Ing clothes. There Is always a right
way and wrong way Of doing even
the simplest bit Of dressmaking. Here
are few right ways:
Make the under part Of a sleeve
double, so that it can be darned, as
this part wears out sooner than the
upper.
Always shrink new braid before
sewing to a skirt, otherwise the bot
tom Of the skirt will become puckered
the first time Of wearing in a shower
Of rain.
In shortening skirt pattern, always
fold a pleat across the middle Of the
pattern; never shorten from the too
or bottom of the skirt, or the shape
will be spoiled.
Home dressmakers who have dnsi-
Guilty in pressing curved seams will
ind rolling pin very good pressing
board, IL a clean cloth be wrapped
around 1t.
When putting steel or whalebone
into bodice bend them slightly at
the waist before putting into casing.
You will find the bodice fit to the" fig
ure much better.
When using sewing machine, the
best way to finish off neatly and firmly
Is to turn the work round and work
back again short way, so that the
stitches will be double.
When putting OIL collar, make neck
Of bodice or blouse slightly smaller
than base Of collar band, and notch
bodice here and there while putting
collar on. By so doing you avoid
wrinkles.
When cutting out sleeves, to avoid
the disaster Of cutting both for the
same arm, fold the material either face
to face or back to back. Place pattern
on it and cut both together. A proper
pair is bound to be the result-New
York American.

Catch the ribbon at intervals so as to
make three holders for nail file, scis-
sors and orange stick. Cut out and
sew to the inside Of the other whole
heart a smaller heart Of white flannel.
inside Of which sew q still smaller
heart Of white flannel. In these pieces
pins, needles, safety pins, etc., may be
placed.
Across each section Of the half hearts
on the inside sew a band Of ribbon
from the lobes to the center Of the
heart, so that the ribbon meets in a
peak when the two pieces Of the heart
are put together. Catch the ribbon
down so that cards Of darning cotton,
black and white thread, and powder
paper book may be stuck in the pieces
securely.
Overland the two sections Of the cut
hearts together so that they will fold
together on each other. Then tack
the four hearts together at the apex.
The two cut hearts will then fold in
ward on each other so that they come
together in the center when you wish
to close the book. The two whole
hearts fold together over these, and
the whole ties together with the rib
bon attached to the whole hearts.

Cause of Fiat Foot.

The power Of the foot as a sustainer
Of the weight Of the body Is under
stood. The heel, great toe, and outer
side OF the foot form the three points
Of a tripod An outward crowded
great toe decreases the utility Of the
foot to just such a degree as 1t Is
forced from its normal position. Flat
foot is frequently seen in children, as
a result Of effort made to have them
toe out gracefully, says an authority.
TOeing in is often due to the uncOn-
scious effort to lessen the strain on
the arch of the foot, produced by bad
ly formed shoes. Few children will
toe in if they wear properly shaped
Shoes The exceptions are those with
weak foot arches, for whom the shoes
should be made with soles thicker on
the inner than on the outer edge. The
weight is thus shifted to the outer edge
Of the foot and the strain on the arch
of the foot relieved. This makes toe
ing out an easy, if not an altogether
natural, procedure.

spinners, the son of one who had
formerly been great planter. This
gentleman said: 1--WE cannot compete
with you in Massachusetts, until we
have established compulsory common
schools for every child in South Caro-
lima, white or colored. That is what
has made you prosperous; some of US
know it, all of us will soon know it,"
Mr.. Atkinson halls it as an encour-
aging sign that the men who are most
looked up to in the south now are not
the men who We're most prominent in
the war, but the "educationar' COVER
nors who are most anxious to give
their states true democracy, based on
education and freedom of opportunity
Under slavery a false system Of
economies in the south tended to in
crease the wealth of the few and to
degrade not only the negro but the
great mass of the whites. This was so
true that SO far from the slave being
at the bottom of the social scale in the
south, there were certain grades of
the white trash on whom he looked
down.
The illiteracy of the people which is
the chief incubus of the industry, as
we'll as the social status of the south,
can be removed only by applying just
laws for the benefit of all of the people,
without distinction of color.

A Washing Recipe.

The following recipe is credited to
Professor Leibig, German scientist.
and is said to save one-half the labor
Of washing.
1t may be an excellent method and
do all that is claimed for it, but for
that we cannot vOuch. Each house
wife must decide for herself whether
or not to use 1t.
Salsoda, one pound; stone lime, one
half pound; water. five quarts. Boil
for a short time. stirring occasionally;
then let it settle and pour off the clear
fluid into stone jar. Keep corked
when not in use. Soak the white
clothes overnight in simple water.
Wiring out and soap the wristbands
and collars and soiled or stained
places. Have the boiler half filled
with water, and when at scalding heat
pour in one teacupful of the fluid.
Stir and put in the clothes. Boil for
one-half hour, then rub lightly through
one suds only, rinsing well in blufng
water. as usual, and all is complete.
For each additional boiler Of clothes
add one-half teacupful Of the fluid
only, of course boiling in the same way
through the whole washing. If more
water is needed in the boiler dip It
from the sudsing tub. Soak the wool
en- goods and calicoes in the suds
from which you have washed the
white clothes, while hanging them out,
taking some of the water from the
boiler IL necessary. First wash the
woolens and then the calicoes. The
nuid brishtens instead Of fading tie
clothes.
