HOW TO ARRANGE FOR A sue.
CESSFUL MEETING.

1. Leave no stone unturned to
have the speaker on hand. 1t some
times happens that each of two or
three persons who are arranging for
a meeting enormously supposes that
one of the others has notified the
speaker of the committee which books
him of their acceptance of the date
offered. The result is a disappointed,
if not an angry audience, and injury
to the cause.
Advertising.
2. Advertise early so that other
gatherings will not be put on your
date and so that individuals will not
book themselves for other functions.
Advertise persistently so that the peo-
pie will see the announcements again
and again. Let the advertising be of
pleasing character. Our movement
is a reform; it combats bitter pref
udices and we should therefore sugar
coat our doctrine in every possible
way.

REVENGE OF STRIKERS.
Dynamite Plots Revealed by New York
Prisoners Tale.

New York, March 2s.- After Charles
Moran, member of the Housesmith's
Union, had pleaded guilty to an attempt
10 place dynamite to the danger OF hu-
man life, he told Assistant District At.
torney Train Monday d startling story
Of the desperate means undertaken by
some of the union men TO avenge them
selves on contractors against whom they
were striking.
His revelations had to do with the
destruction Of the ornamental iron fence
around the railroad station ut the Bel
mont Park race track; with an attempt
to burn down the Pagan iron works In
Jersey City, recently, and with various
other exploits where dynamite was used
~ destroy property.
Mr.. Train says he has information,
not given to him by Moran, however,
that tie attempt Ia destroy the new
slTawbridgc being erected by the Penn
kylsania over the Haekensack river, on
May N last. and which failed only be-
cause the dynamite had not been placed
properly, was the work OF men con-
nectea with the Jersey City brancl. OF
the union.
While Moran has given the names Of
the men who, lie believes, were at the
head of these plots, Mr. Train fears
they were 50 crafty that it viii be
difficult to bring many Of them to pun
or two men and these they would tell
simply that they wanted d trick turns

Some three years ago number of
prominent retail druggists - realizing
that big change was to be made in the
proprietary medicine business, that the
public demanded TO know what the In
gradients were Of the preparations they
were advertising, and that general
reform was about to take place In pro-
prietary medicine manufacturing and adj
vcrtising, formed a cooperative COM
pany to meet the public demand. This
company was called The United Drug
Company, of which the undersigned
is one Of the thousand members.
Our object was, FIRST to manufacture
a lire of prescriptions such as we had
tried out in our stores and found to give
the very best Of results, and second, by
owning oui own cooperative manufac-
turing company we would be able to
know the exact formula of every prepar-
alton we were selling, thus enabling Us
to give to the public the very best rem
edies we could find at actual manufac-
turing cost, plus single retail profit.
This enabled The United Drug Com
pany to escape the heavy charges for
advertising and other expenses such as
have to be paid by proprietary remedies.
What was most important, it insures
safety and satisfaction TO our customers,
because we druggists know just what
we arc selling.

pointed who spent long tine in testing
the merits Of more than two Thousand
