MAKING ALTAR OF ROSES.
a Commendable Effort That Didn't Re-
suit in Entire Satisfaction.
From the New York 4,

NA~
.Oh. Henry, deah. I'm going TO make
some What Go you sup
nosep Altar of roses. You know how
very, very expensive 1t Is IN the shops.
Why, l have paid as much as-on, L
can't tell. but an awful ~rice for a tiny,
tiny vial. Our lovely roses are losing
all their leaves. and l am determined to
make use of them. Don't you think 1T
a capital idea? We can SurprlSe MRS.
Nc by presenting TO her a Whole
bottle Of altar made out OF our oWnest
own La Frances, Jacks, Baron De Bon
stettens, Golden Suns, English MOSES,
American Beauties, Baby Ramolers,
Magnafranos, Teas, Bridesmaids n
Lady Patterseas." With his encourage
ment the little wife began industriously
to save the falling petals In fruit Jars.
She had only twenty rose bushes all
told. At the end of ten days three
quart lars were filed with petals and
the little woman got ready to make
her altar. Henry was to buy a small
still. Professor Heffner came out for
dinner, and was delighted to hear about
the scheme. All in a flutter she ex-
hibited the three jars. Have you
weighed the peals?' he asked. She had
not but she fetched the ni~ckelplated
fish scales, and, at his request. IL square
ward of cheese cloth. The roses We're
tied in the cloth and found to weigh
FIVE ounces gross. My dear Mrs,
said the professor, sorroWfully, I'm
afraid you won't make a great deal OF
altar out of these roses. In Arabia and
Turkey it takes SEQ pounds of fresh
roses TO make n ounce of attar-one
ounca mind you. 1t would be imp0S-
sjble to calculate the infnitesimal
amount you would derive from the dis
t~illation OF your five ounce of petals"
The professor is now persona O grata.
He Is known as ''hOrTid cid thing"
And Mrs. Me will wait yet awhile for
her whole bottle Of altar"

She Described Her.

n From the Denver POST.
A few nights ago q Denver young mani
who lives downtown, went out to Sixteenth
avenue to call on a girl. He had seen the
girl but once before. The call was ar
ranged by a mutual acquaintance. When
he reached the neighborhood he discovered
that he had forgotten her number. lie
knew about where she lived, however, ana
went to a house near Sixteenth and Down
ing TO make some inquiries. After he had
rung the bell he found TO his dismay thai
he could not remember her name. A lady
came TO the door. The young mai took a
tong chance
would you kindly tell me who lives in
that house across the street," he asked. J
She told him. 1t was not the name. He
asked about another house and failed
again. Then he smiled and explained.
II am to call on a girl out this way,
he said, .'and | have forgotten both her,
house number and her name. She's a med
ium-sized girl"
The woman was amused -How does
she look?'' she asked. :
'"She has blonde hair" +.
.Oh, has she blondined hair and does
she wear Il brown dress, q sailor hat with
a light blue hand and a brown sidecomb on
one side and one slightly darker on tbs
otner?" !

A Question of Interest to All Careful
Persons.

Persons.
Arguments on food are interesting.
Many persons adopt a vegetarian diet
on tae ground that they 10 not like to
feel that life has been taken to feed
them. nor do they fancy the thought OF
eating dead meat
On the other hand, too great con-
sumption of partly cooked, starchy oats
AMI wheat or white bread, pastry. etc,
produces serious bowel troubles, be-
cause the bowel digestive organs
(where starch is digested), are over
taxed and the food ferments. producing
gas, and microbes generate in the de-
cayed TODD, frequently bringing on peri
tonitis and Appendicitis.
Starchy food is absolutely essential
to the human body. Its best form is
shown in TIE food "Grape-Nuts.' where
the starch is changed into Il form of
sugar during the process of its manu-
f~acture. In this way, the required food
rs presented to the system In a pre-di-
geSted form and is Immediately made
into blood and tissue. without taxing
the digestive organs.
A remarkable result In n~ourishment
Is obtained; the person using Grape
N,lts gains quickly in physical and
mental strength. Why in mental? Be-
cause the food contains Gelicate par
tlcles of Phosphate of Potash obtained
from the grains, and this unites with
the albumen OF all food and the combi-
nation IL what nature uses 10 rebuild
worn out cells in the brain. This is q
scientific fact that can be easily proven
by ten days use Of Grape-Nuts.

The Carter Medicine Co, of New

pill manufacturer from using a red
scolored package for his preparation is
decided in favor OF the Carter Co. A
similar result occurs In a suit TO enjoin
"A retail druggist from selling pills in
red packages. Both actions were con-
tested.
THE court decides that the Carter
Medicine Co. has for many years had
the sole and exclusive right to the use
OF red-colored wrappers and labels
,Tnpon small round packages Of liver
piqis, and says that the right was nc
~quired by the adoption of that color

continuous use ever since. The de-
9fendant in each case Is permanently en-
J Joined from manufacturing or putting
mp any liver pills in such red colored
packages, and also from selling any
pills in red packages, except the genu-

She Could've Help e.
BOSTON Post

One Of the brightest and incest little pa
dents in the surgical ward Of one Of the
city hospitals lay on her bed moaning
with pain. She had just come to con.
sciousness after a slight operation, and.
though only s years old, was exhibiting
heroic nerve.
Yet she couldn't keep from occasional
low cries escaping her. She was the sort
of child who hates above all things to
give trouble, and when one Of the nurses
stopped before her and, as she thought,
looked a bit reproachfully down at her.
she explained. between the paroxysms,
with a pitiful smile:
.Oh, Miss Smith. I can't help 1t, 1 can't

THE IOWA MOB MURDER.

At Charles City, Iowa a mob Of one
thousand men battered down the jail
door, took from the jail a white man
who had murdered his wife and step
son, and, after holding a prayer SER

Cedar river The dispatches say that
the man had been demented for over
TWENTY-FIVE years and that he was so
years Of age. 1t is also set forth
that four or five ministers and a nun

part in the lynching
The above incident surpasses in
atrocity many of the worst occurren-
rSes that have transpired in the south,
and proves that there are as many
nlurdeTous Wretches in the one sec.
ton as in the other But the real
trouble is that public sentiment has
Tor Sc long a time and in such an
emphatic manner condcned these acts
Of laWlessness and contended that
they could not be 1sontrcllel. But
under certain circumstances, as Presi
Gent Cleveland demonstrated in the
Chicago riots, they can be controlled
and that magistrate also showed how
trey can be controlled. It has also
been shcwn that small number OF
determined men can put to fight an
army arm OF roughs, bummers and strump
cts. All that is needed is to hang q
few OF the preachers and unsexed
vlragoes who gloat upon such specta
eles.

SOUTHERN VERDICT.

When it comes to dealing with the
AIro-American, southern journals, al
most without exception are the most
extraordinary and auda-ious liais that
ever existed upon the face Of the
earth, or anywhere else. They actual
~ seem to think that they are doing
GCd and man service of the most
valuable description when they in
ally, a southern man shows his man
hood and integrity by refusing to so
prostitute himself for political pur-
poses; and THE APPEAL is glad
to mention an instance of recent oc-
currence in the benighted state Of
Alabama. Everybody knows how
vcciferously southern journals propa-
gate the lie that an Afro-American
can get justice in a southern court,
we'll knowing that there is not a
semblance of truth in what they say.
A white man assassinated an Afro
American in a little old ram-shacIz-
ling town in that state called Dothan.
The murder was proved beyond doubt,
but the scoundrely jury found the
murderer net guilty. Thereupon,
Judge Pearce addressed the jury thus:
".Gentlenen, although your. verdict
may not read that. way in so many
words, it really says: We, the jury,
find the defendant not guilty because
he is q white man, and the man he
killed was a Negro There is not a
man on the jury who does not believe
from the evidence adduced that VIII
liam Crockett killed Lum Henderson.
II the dead man had been a white
citizen it wouldn't have taken you
two hours to have returned a verdict
of guilty, and l don't see how any
member OF the jury can go from this
courthouse and face his fellow citi-
zens on the Streets

of disaster, a section which stands
face to face with. the perplexities and
dangers of the most diffD3ult question

Mr.. Slayden forgets that the homes
OF white men during the days when
the White men aforesaid were trying
their level best to destroy this govern
ment and to build up one whose cor
