MEET AT WASHINGTON
Central American Peace Conference Will Hold Session There Soon.

Washington, Nov.-The Central American Peace Conference, which will convene in Washington probably on November Il, will draw to this city as delegates the leading statesmen and professional men of Costa Rica, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua and Salvador, as well as the ministers ac- credited to the United States from those countries. These men will as
 semble here to represent the hopes entertained in the various republics that the conference may effectually end wars between themselves and revolutions It is expected that the conference will continue at least two weeks, and it is likely that it may run for month or more. In prepar- ation for the gathering, the upper
 floor of the building occupied by the International Bureau of American Republics has been fitted up in elab- crate style. In addition to their re- gularly accredited ministers to the United States, Gautema a, Hondurau and Salvador have sent two delegates each, while Costa Rica and Nicaragua have sent but one. Probably the most picturesque figure who will be seen at the conference is Senor Policarpo Bonilla, a former president of Hondu
 ras, and now the recognized leader of the liberal party in that country. He is said to be a lawyer of great learning and ability He will have as his colleague, Senor E. Constantine Fiallos, now secretary for foreign af- fairs. The chairman of the Costa Rican delegation, Senor Luis Ander- son, is the youngest member in the cabinet of President Gonzales Viquez, holding the portfolio of foreign rela- tions and public education. Guatemala has sent as chairman of it's delegation Dr. Antonio Batres-Jauregui, prom nient lawyer whose services have been most important to his country. He is the dean of the Gautemalan Re public Corps, and has been chief jus tice of the Supreme Court of Gaute- mala. Victor Sanchez-Ocana, who will accompany Dr. Batres, is a dis tinguished member of the Gautemalan bar and prominent in state affairs. The chairman of the Nicaraguan dele gation will be Dr. Jos. Madriz. He is an able lawyer and a public writer of renown. Salvador will have as cia.,lliah of it's delegation Dr. Salva- GOT Gallegos, who represented his country in Costa Rica at the time of the negotiation of the San Jose treaty in 1906. He has had a long and bril- liant political career, having been for years secretary for foreign affairs.

MansfeId's Rebuke,

A group of theatrical men were talk. ing in New York about the late Rich ard Mansfield.
 "Mr Mansfield" said one, was de. lightful humoroist, a splendid racon- teur in society, but at the same time he had certain proper and becoming sense of his own dignity, and it never paid to be unduly familiar with him.
 He was, as we all know, rather bald. He resented, from barbers, or friends, any allusion to his badness.
 Well one night at party a man came up behind this great artist, stag gered him with violent slap on the back, and exclaimed in a loud, jovial, familiar voice:
 Hello, Dick. How are you? Every time I see you, you get balder and balder.'
 Mansfield drew himself up. He sneered at the other.
 "'Hello,' he said. I don't know who yon are, but every time see you you get ruder and ruder.'

The police arrived in time to rescue him and fought the crowd back to the police station, where only level headed citizens averted the trouble. The girl is in precarious condition.

 You won't live long, Bacon point ed out, if you have soft, fine hair, a fine skin, quick growth, large head, early corpulence, short neck, small mouth, brittle and separated teeth and fat ears.
 "Your life, barring accidents, will be very lengthy if you have slow growth, coarse hair, rough skin, deep wrin- kles in the forehead, firm flesh, a large mouth, wide nostrils, strong teeth set close together, and hard, gristly ear. r."-Minneapolis Journal.

Great Railway Strike Threatened.

London, Nov.-At a great meeting of railroad men held in Albert hall and attended by deputations from all parts of the United Kingdom, Richard Bell, M. P, and general secretary of the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants and leader of the strike movement, announced the result of theballot taken among the members of the society on the question Of a strike Mir. Bell said the society had 97,361 members at the end of September, and that many men had joined recently, but were not included in the ballot. He announced that S8,- 925 were in favor of striking, while S,773 were opposed to so doing. The remainder of the ballots were spoiled but majority of these were in favor of striking. Continuing, Mir. Bell de clared that the executive committee of the society was well satisfied with this result, but it-had resolved that no further reference should be made to the situation pending the interview between MT. Lioyd-George, president of the Board of Trade, and representa- tives of the society. He said he hoped the mandate would not be put in oper- ation, but he was satisfied that, if it became necessary to take this step, the men would stand by their colors. The meeting passed resolution heartily pledging it's support to any action the executive committee might deem necessary

HER "BEST FRIEND"
A Woman Thus Speaks of Postum.

We usually consider our best friends those who treat us best.
 Some persons think coffee real friend, but watch it carefully awhile and observe that it is one of the meanest of all enemies for it stabs one while protesting friendship.
 Coffee contains a poisonous drug nervous system and frequently sets up disease in one or more organs of the body, if it's use is persisted in.
 'I had heart palpitation and nerv. ousness for four years and the doctor told me the trouble was caused by coffee. He advised me to leave it off, but I thought I could not" writes Wis. lady.
 "On the advice of a friend I tried Postum Food Coffee and it so satis- fed me that I did not care for coffee after few days trial of Postum.
 AS weeks went by and I continued to use Postum my weight increased from 98 to 118 pounds, and the heart trouble left me. have used it year now, and am stronger than l ever was. I can hustle up stairs without any heart palpitation, and I am cured of nervousness.
 My children are very fond of Post um and it agrees with them. My sis ter liked it when she drank it at my house, but not when she made it at her own home. Now she has learned to make it right, boil it according to directions, and has become very fond of it. You may use my name if you wish, as am not ashamed of praising my best friend-Postum."
