 Week.
 The mission for women at St Fran cis' Xavier and St Thomas churches closed yesterday afternoon at 3 o'clock and the mems opened at 7:30 last night.

TAINTED MONEY

was for a long time despised, simply because we all thought 1t was taint- cd, but we find out that 1t really is not tained. Now if Rockefeller or Andy c. have whole lot of money. certainly taint yours, taint mine, taint our neighbors, therefore taint tainted: it still belongs to the owner. But if you go to City hall any even ing this week and spend few dol lars at the St Mary's hospital bazaar you'll find when you come out that 1t taint your money any more. but taint no use talking about it because if it was tainted they wouldn't know 1t until it would be too late to make any fuss about it. By the way, they are serving coffee at the above bazaar and taint the cheap tasting quality either; it's the nice tasting kind and taint sold anywhere only at our store. However, if you are not satisfied with the quality Of tea or coffee that you are drinking at your home, taint anybody's fault but your own, because we sell the best in the city and if you happen not to like the quality taint no sale-bring 1t back and get your money newspaper rack with pound of our warranted good Baking Powder, 45c per pounds. at

Wrestling Finds
Ardent Defender
In German Artist

BERLIN. Aug. 17.-Prof Reinhold
BeGas, one Of the most eminent living
German sculptors. has written a book
on wrestling, in which he expresses
strong regret that wrestling should be
regarded as a somewhat vulgar branch
OF sport. He points out that It was the
favorite sport Of the Greeks. and was
universally practlced by high and low in
Germany until the outbreak Of the
thirty years war. He regards wrest-
hng as an eminent means Of advancing
public health and improving the
physiqUe OF the race
The intense corporal activity which
wrestling demands is an excellent rem
edy against alcoholism and its attendant
evils. and the professor urges that il
has an advantage over every other form
of sport in that It brings the whole
muscular system into play.

BAcONS CHASTITY lest.

Lord Salvesen, in a recent address at
Edinburgh, recalled the old days when
human life was held very cheap and
judges frequently indulged in levity
when life was at stake. On one occasion
Sir Francis Bacon was nightly impOr-
tuned by a malefactOr 10 save his life.
All appeals failed, and the culprit at
length pleaded for mercy on account of
his kindred.
Your name" said he, '1s Bacon, and
my name is Hogg, and in all ages Hogg
and Bacon are so nearly kindred that
they are not to be separated"
Aye, but" replied the Judge. you
and l cannot be kindred, except you be
hanged, for Hogg is not Bacon until It
be well hanged Inter Ocean.
