A Kindly Smile.

Mrs. Coke has the same kindly greet
ing for every one. whether he be the
miner, b~lackened with the CRIME and
dust of the mine, OF in a higher sta
ton of life. She suggests to the parent
that in the home there should be inn
portant training of the children, but
the idea is never advanced excepting in
a spirit of kindness and of the broad
est kind of sympathy. Her love for
the masses is not simulated; it is the
JOY of her heart. She has paid the rent
for many a widow and orphan; has
helped out so that the little e may
attend school, and has provided the
mother with employment so that the
home may be kept together.
Mrs. Coxe's home, like her life, is the
paragon of modesty; she leads the
simple life" in all its real simplicity.
Her chief aim seems to be to assist the
poor and needy. She has no pet phil
anthropics; there are no endless calls
upon her time from society folk; there
are no wonderful gowns, no costly mill
linery; no splendor of jewels, laces or
sables adorn her person. 1t is not
after all, the charity which she dis
penses that has won for her the love
and admiration of the toilers of the
mines. and that of their wives and lit
tie ones, but it is the purity Of her
character that constantly teaches a
beautiful lesson, not only to the mining
town, but to the world. at large which
may study to its own improvement the
generous, unselfish, sacrificing life OF
this noble woman.

am well aware OF how difficult II Is
TO pass constitutional amendment.
Nevertheless. In my judgment. the
whole question Of marriage and d.
vorce should be relegated to the au'
thority OF the national congress. The
change would be good from every
standpoint. In particular II would be
good because II would confer on the
congress the power at once to deal
radically aud efficiently with polygamy.
and this should be done whether or
not marriage and divorce are dealt
with. 1t is neither safe nor proper to
leave the question OF polygamy TO be
dealt with by the several states.

Records show that during the TWEEN

1900, there we're strikes affecting 11I.-
500 establishments, and 6105,694 en-

were zoos lockouts. involving nearly
10000 establishments. throwing over

estimated loss to employees Of $780,

suffered directly and indirectly prob

would not have occurred had the par

appear before an unprejudiced body

Battleship Designers Compete.

& Washington, Sept. 21-The navy
<siepartment is in receipt of numerous
Enquiries from experts in naval con-
struction in civil life, who desire to
enter the competition of designs for
''the new battleship Something like
20 serious propositions have been
Submitted from as many sources in
puiring as to the chief characters
|tics and asking for further statistics
Z Regarding the ship.
q The fact that the law requires a
vessel of proportions and qualifica-
lions at least equal to, If not super
for to, the biggest and best of the
type abroad. has introduced an ele-
ment of uncertainty as to what
|.would be regarded as an acceptable
vessel. The navy department au-
kthorities fell that the competition
will be lively one, and will result
1 in many new ideas of battleship
equipment, including the fighting
power of the ship as represented by
an arrangement of the ordnance,
and in the protective quality arrived
at by lessening the effect of the gun
fire of the enemy. The competition,
therefore, will place the navy depart
ment in possession of some new
ideas, but 1t Is a question whether
these may be used without compen-
sation to their authors. 1t is not ex-
pected that the approved design will
come from civilian source, al
though, as has been stated, it is ap-
preciated that details of construc-
tion and equipment of value are des-
tined to be derived from the compe-
titors. The navy department has
sent practically no information to
these civilian designers. Some of
them asked for so much information
that 1t would have been impossible
to comply with the requests without
entailing much labor upon the de-
partment as well as running the risk
of incurring the charge of favorit-
ism in giving more information to
one competitor than to another.

Cure for Sick-Headache.

We had a letter the other day
from lady in the town of Boulder.
Colo, that should be of interest to
people who are troubled with spells
of sick headache. She writes that
she had these spells about four times
a week, was obliged to go to bed and
remain there from to 10 hours
each time. Had been troubled this
way for several years, and the at
tacks became more frequent. Doc
tors done her no good, she tried
dieting, as every body said 1t was
from her stomach. Seeing an adver-
tisement of DR.. Gums Improved
Liver Pills, which said, they cure
sick headache by removing the
cause, she decided to try one more,
and sent so cents for two boxes. She
said she had taken the last pill more
than 4 months ago, has not had a
sick spell of any kind for over s
months. Druggists sells these pills
for Csc per box. It only takes one
for dose, they cure sick headache
every time.
