Every housekeeper should know
that if they will buy Defiance Cold
Water Starch for laundry use they
will save not only time, because it
never sticks to the iron, but because
each package contains 16 Ozone full
pound-while all other Cold Water
Starches are put up in A-pound pack
ages, and the price is the same, 10
cents. Then again because Defiance
Starch is free from all injurious chem
icals. If your grocer tries to sell you

a stock on hand which he wishes to
dispose of before he puts in Defiance.
He knows that Defiance Starch has
printed on every package in large let

Defiance and save much time and
money and the annoyance of the iron
sticking. Defiance never sticks.

THOUSANDS OF LIVES SAVED
BY Mothers Medicine Chest" and
Patent Prescriptions

Commenting on attacks made by
certain eastern publications on some
of the best known and most valuable
of the worlds proprietary medicines,
the Committee on Legislation Of the
Proprietary Association says:
"All through the country districts,
in every state Of the union, you will
find in the farm houses the old family
remedies, sometimes called patent
medicines many of which have been
in use in the same household for gen.
erations. Among such people the old
fashioned proprietary medicine, al
ways at hand with full printed in
structions for use, is one of the neces-
sites Of life.
ITO families in the country many
miles from a doctor such remedies are
invaluable. Mothers medicine chest
has saved many life and met many
a threatening sickness at the thres-
hold and turned 1t out of doors. So
far from constituting self-prescription,
as Is often pretended, acquaintance
with a patent medicine often obvi-
ates the necessity Of such a step; for
here is a prescription already made
up, the effect of which is well known.
One of the greatest advantages Of
such medicine is that its constant for
mula gives it the character of single
drug, so far as uniformity of result is
concerned, and the people who use 1t
know from experience just what they
can count on-which is more than can
be said of many physicians prescrip-
lions frequently obtained at far
greater cost and trouble"

An English writer in discussing
1.-THE Psychology of the American
Millionaire" has this to say: HE is
apt to combine the ethics of an alli-
gator with the creed of member of
the Y. M. C. A. And it is this com
bination that makes him far more
formidable than our own skeptical
and cynical cosmopolitan millionaires,
who feel that there can be no right
eousness in providence under
which they prosper The American
millionaire gets his strength from a
simple and inherited pastoral moral
ity, and he uses that strength to over
come the corrupt inhabitants of cities
with their own weapons. Cynics. d.
abolists, haters of their own kind, are
always weakened by the fact that
their faith, however furiously they
may hold it, is negative and based on
doubt. Rockefeller's faith is positive
and preserves him from all doubts
and scruples. Now that he is rich be.
You'd all precedent his wealth, no
doubt, seems proof that his way OF
life is agreeable to beneficent Provi
dence."

CHRONIC ERYSIPELAS
Cured by Dr.. Williams Pink Pills,
Although Whole Body was
Affected.

Erysipelas or St. Anthony's fire is a
most uncomfortable disease on account
of the burning, the pain and the dis
figurement it is also very grave dis
order, attended always by the danger of
involving vital organs i'll its spread.
The case which follows will be read
with great interest by all sufferers as it
affected the whole body, and refused to
yield to the remedies prescribed by the
physician employed. Mrs. Ida A. Col
bath, who was the victim of the attack,
residing at No. 10 Winter street, New
buryport, Mass, says:
"In June of 1908 was taken i'll with
what at first appeared to be fever. |

disease chronic erysipelas and said it
would be long time before / got well.
Inflammation began on my face and
spread all over my body. My eyes were
swollen and seemed bullying out of their
sockets. I was in terrible plight and
suffered the most intense pain through
out my body. The doctor said my
case was q very severe one. Under
his treatment, however, the infiamma-
ton did not diminish and the pains
which shot through my body increased
in severity. After being two months un-
der his care, without any Improvement, l
dismissed him.
"Shortly after this, on the advice Of
friend, I began to take DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People, two at dose
three times a day. After the second box
had been used I was surprised to notice
that the Inflammation was going down
and that the pains which used to cause
me 30 much agony had disappeared. At
ter using six boxes Of the pills 1 was up
and around the house attending to my
duties, as well as ever"

Sea Gypsies.

In the archipelago of Mergui, off
the coast of lower Burmah, live the

own covered boats, in which, with
their families, dogs, cats chickens and
pets, they float about on the sea and
wander from island to island. By
day they fish or harpoon turtle or

put back to the shore. In the case
of bad weather at sea, they land with

LIGHTING LORE.
AcETYLENE ExcELs AS AN ILLU,
MlNANT.
Gas for Lighting Formerly Confined to
Cities and Large Towns, now In
General Use In the Country.

The satisfactory lighting of subur-

liant, penetrating, effulgent light.
Everybody admits that these are
not the characteristics of the candle
or kerosene lamp, which, formerly,
we're the only feasible means of pro-
ducing light for domestic use in the
rural districts.
For generations there was crying
need, a yearning for something better,
which was not satisfied. A few years
ago deliverance came in the shape of
the chemical compound, Calcium Car.
bide, from which, by the simple ap.
plication Of water, the gas Acetylere
is derived. Acetylene meets all the
requirements fully and admirably and
is being generally used.
J Common lime and carbon in the
form OF coke or coal are the raw ma
terials which, fused in an intensely
heated furnace, make Calcium Car
bide, and there is no difficulty in OBJ
tanning 1t in any part of the country.
The machine into which the Cal
cium Carbide is fed and from which
the Acetylene is distributed through
the building to be lighted, is but little
larger than a thirty-gallon milk can,
and of the same general form. 1t Is
easily and cheaply installed, either in
the cellar or in an out-building.
The light from burning Acetylene
Is exquisite, and lighting experts agree
that it surpasses all other known illu-
minants. 1t does not faint the air nor
strain the eyes and is not objection
able in any respect. Every up-to-date
rural residence should be equipped
with Acetylene light.

AS usual about this season Of the
year there is much talk about indie
pendent movements in politics, and
judging from the reports in the var
ious counties it is easy to believe that
the Republican organizations, or ina
chimes as those dissatisfied call them,
are sure to be overthrown and a new
set Of men will take charge Of affairs.
In Hudson county Col, Dickinson, the
county leader and Mayor Pagan are
at swords points and a number of
prominent men do not speak as they
pass by. In Essex county John S.
Gibson has renewed his fight on Major
Lentz, and ASsemblyman Colby has an
n0unced himself as candidate for
State Senator and expects the opposi-
tion Of the organization. And SO in
other counties the political surface is
very much ruined This however, Is
not to be deplored, as 1t shows that
the people are interested, and while
there is no danger Of the organizations
being broken up it will have the effect
0f placing better men In nomination.

No Indication Of Peace.

London, June 6.-Accounts Of Presi-

Takahira, Japanese minister at Wash
ington; Count Casslni, Baron Speck
Won Sternburg and other ambassadors,
which are alleged to have been along
the line of efforts to bring mediation,
are receiving much attention here, but
in diplomatic circles it is not believed
that they win result in securing peace.
The belief is firm in all quarters that
Russia will continue the war. Peace
reports come from Paris, Berlin and St.
Petersburg as well as from Washing
ton, but not single definite indication
of peace or even Of Intervention can be
obtained. AT the Russian embassy it is
declared that the war will be contin-
ued, and at the Japanese embassy it is
said there is no expectation Of peace
offer, while the foreign office states
that it does not know of any movement
toward peace.

GOVERNOR STOKES signed on Mon
day three measures Of general interest
throughout New Jersey. the most i'm
portant being the second committee
substitute for Assemblyman Colby's
Limited Franchise bill, which author
ICES him to appoint a commission of
five members to investigate existing
franchise laws and report to the next
legislature, the report to contain also
recommendations for determining the
values Of franchises and for assessing
them at local rates. Mr.. Colby's orig
inal proposition was to limit all pub
lie utility franchises to term of
years.
Although the Governor has signed
the bill, he is far from decided as to
whom he shall name. He is most par
ticular about the selections, as he con-
siders the commission one of the ut
most Importance.
The Governor also signed Senator
Bradley's bill, which is designed to
correct possible unconstitutional fea-
lures in the general election law Of
1898 as it relates to the appointment
of county boards of election. These
are now named by the Governor, two
Of each political party, upon the recon-
mendation Of the state committees.
Justice Fort raised query in one of
his early opinions in the SupremeCourt
as to whether this method was consti-
tutional, since it imposed a political
qualification and therefore restricted
the eligibility of citizens to hold pub
lie office.
Under the Bradley amendment the
state chairman willstill have the right
to suggest names to the Governor, but
without delegating to them any ac-
tual powers Of appointment.
The other bill signed was Senator
Wakelee's supplement- to the corpora
ton act OF 1884, which prescribes the
method Of dissolying the charters of
corporations falling to pay the taxes
levied by the State.
