The Cauee of Snorina.

This Is not for you, because you never snorc. No one ever does snore himself. It is always the other fellow. But you can read this and then tell that guilty other fellow how to break himself of his bad habit. for snoring is merely bad habit and as such can be overcome. It is caused pri marlly by improper breathing-that is breathing through the mouth instead of through the nostrils-so, first of all, care should be taken during walking hours to breathe correctly. The habit once formed of keeping tho mouth d. firmly closed as possible. he will be less likely to sleep with it open. Thr' zee that your troublesome snorer has . proper pillow. He should sleep with fils head as ffat as possible, for If !!.s head Is pushed forward and the meek bent the tongue drops back againS' the ~ palate and forms an obstrn > on (which makes all the unmusical sounds we hear when the air is forced past it.-St. James Gazette.

Tho Last Match Saved Them.

The ship had lain becalmed in a trop- loal sea for three days. Not breath of air stirred the mirrorlike surface of the sea or the limp sails that hung from the yards like drapery carved in stone. The captain resolved to wait no longer. He piped up all hands on deck and requested the passengers to also come forward.
 "I must ask all of you," he said, ito i've me every match that you have"
 Wonderingly the passengers and crew obeyed. The captain carefully arranged the matches in his hands as each man handed him his store until all had been collected. Then he threw them au overheard but one. drew a cigar from. his pocket and. striking the sol- tary match on the mainmast, endeav ored to light it. In an instant fur GUS gale swept over the deck, extin xuished the match and filled the sails, and the good ship Mary Ann sped through the waves on her course.- Pearson's Weekly.

How Young Board of Trade Presiden,
 Made Good" With the People.
 Systematic town boosting is a fca. ture of American business activity which aims at the general good instcaa of personal profit. One western tow had a board of trade which had s'cn. along for years without doing anyth 'e in particular, except eating some fool once year at a banquet and listcnia to some spread eagle oratory, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. The organzati"I became moribund, and its presidcnc, was an honor no longer sought for The directors met and gave the plae, to young man of the type i've like io encourage" The young man took hiS job seriously and went to work. II wasn't long before he grew an idea ot his own.
 Every family that moved to town ho spotted. Employment was provided for the breadwinners where necessary and the new people were made to fec at home. When this personal atten- ton had got in its work, represcnta tive of the board of trade interviewed the head of the new family This In. terview was incorporated into letter uimeograph copies were made, put into stamped envelopes and made ready to mail. Then the letters were taken to the newcomer. and he was asked to address them to his friends ''back east" The scheme worked like magic, and the population boomed. Of tha, idea many new ones were born. The young man has been several times rc- elected president of the board of trade. and he can have anything the people of that town can give him.

School Gardens Create Taste.

The educational value of the school garden cannot be overestimated. Wha 4 we want to do Is to teach the children taste-get taste into the child. get tas:, into the household and then finally tast.

It is particularly plea ing to those most deeply interested note how universal is becoming t demand for school gardens. Reform in many branches of public improvement would be far easier of accomplishmea now had the children of the previoV generation been trained in the fund.-, mental principles of taste, the powe, of perceiving. approaching and discos' ering beauty and excellence.

JURY DECLARES
 PASTOR GUILTLESS
Pine Bluff Negro Preacher Vindicated ill the Circuit Court at Fort Smith With the Aid of Other Local
 Preachers

Rev. William Wallace of Pine Bluff Ark, was acquitted yesterday on the charge of obtaining the sum of $3 under false pretenses, says the Fort Smith Southwest American.
 The facts in the case are about this : Rev. Walker came from Pine Bluff on November 20, to attend the Colored Baptist State Convention. In Fort Smith in company with Rev. Wilson, also of Pine Bluff he boarded street car and when the conductor came to collect fare Wilson handed him a nickel and Walker pulled out his purse and took out bill and handed it to the conductor, receiving in change $495. Two days afterward the conductor met him on the car and claimed he had received $2 bill in stead of S. bill. Walker denied this and was afterwards arrested and tried in the justice court, where he was fined $10 and costs.
 Walker appealed his case, and on Friday in the circuit court he was acquitted of the charge.
 Reys. J. C. Battle and J. A. Wilson of Pine Bluff came here to assist Rev. Walker in his trouble and tes- tifying to his good character. They left on the Iron Mountain at Il p. Ill. for Pine Bluff feeling that they had had considerate treatment in the city of Fort Smith

The Jewish outlook., 1907-07-12

The annual convention opened It's
exercises on Tuesday, July 3, 1907, with
prayer. Reports of committees were
read and an adjournment had to
Wednesday morning.
Rabbi Joseph Stolz, who has been
president of the conference for two
years then read his annual message.
There was an attendance OF about
sixty rabbis from all sections Of the
country when the conference opened
Tuesday night with Il prayer by Rabbi
Louis Wolsey. Dr. Maurice Harris, OF
New York, preached the conference ser
mon, opening the proceedings with IA
strong and progressive note. The sub
ject of Doctor Harris sermon was that
Reformed Judaism has been too apollo
getic up-to-date and that it is time that
a re-declaration Of the program upon
which Reform stands should be made.
Reform, he said, stood for evolution; no
one age can legislate for all ages and
consequently they should not feel them
selves bound by the dicta OF the past.
Doctor Harris pleaded for slmpllilca-
ton of the ceremonial in the synagogue.
He said that the Jews should stand dis
tinct not as a nation, but in their mis-
sion, and that accordingly the father
land Of the Jew was his adopted coun-
try: the Jew carried Zion where he
wandered.
The first meeting was closed with
prayer in Hebrew by Professor Mann
