GAVE HIS NAME TO STEAK.
How the Famous Porterhouse Came
to Be So Termed.

On almost every bill of fare are
seen the words "porterhouse steak"
Now, most people know what a por
terhouse steak is, having on some &C.
casion eaten one, or at least a piece
of beef that went by that name, but
originated. Years ago there was a
hosiery near Harvard university kept
by a man named Porter. Soon this
tavern became famous for it's viands,
especially for it's cuts of meats. The
stranger stopping there for meal
and not knowing exactly what to or
der would be advised by his genial
host, Mr.. Porter, to order steak. So
good were his steaks that travellers
often spoke of them, and gradually
began referring to them as the
"steak you get at Porter's house."
From that it was but a short time
before they were referred to as the
porter house steak" Since then
butchers all over the country have
found out the way in which Mr.. Por-
ter cut his famous steak, and have
been making the same cuts them
selves, hence the porterhouse steak
has been served the country over.
Only a month or 50 ago the old Por-
ter house was moved back to make
room for row of tenement houses
that are now being built in front
of it.. ---

RICHARD MANSFIELD DEAD
FOREMOST ACTOR OF AMERICA
HAS PASSED AWAY.
After Years Illness, the End Comes
at His Summer Home in
New London.

New London, Conn, Aug. 31.-Rich'
on the American stage, passed away
at six a. m. Friday at his summer
residence, Seven Oaks, Ocean avenue.
Death was directly due to disease of
the liver, aggravated by complica-
lions. DR.. A. H. Allen, local physi-
clan, who has been in charge since
Mr.. Mansfeld's arrival here from Sar-
anac Lake, N. Y, states that death
was not entirely unexpected, although
this fact had not been made public.
Mr.. Mahsfield's condition had been
reported as excellent.
It was stated thtat he stood the jour-
ney well from Saranac Lake and that
he was up and around his home here
until three days ago. Then turn for
the worse set in and Mr.. Mansfield
DR.. Mcclellan, of Pittsburg, was sum-
moned. Dr. Allen said Friday that
he had feared the worst for several
days
There were several conditions that
prevented his getting we'll. Dur
ing the great actors last moments he
lay in condition of coma and did not
recognize the loved ones at his bed
side.
There were present at the time of
his death his wife, his brother Felix,
his young son, George Gibbs, and the
physicians and nurses.
The intense nervous strain under
which Richard Mansfield worked
caused complete breakdown last
spring when he was playing an en-,
gagement in Scranton, Pa, though he
had been in poor health for some time
He recovered sufficiently to enable
him to make a voyage to England. The
English climate failed to benefit the
actor and several weeks ago he re.
turned to this country and went to
Ampersand, in the Adirondacks. Mr.
Mansfield longed to be at his summer
home in New London, Conn, and sew
eral days ago he was taken there in
his private car.

Many minds have been figuring on
what President Roosevelt ought to
do when his term as president ex-
pires. Some would like to see him
in the United States senate. some
would like to see him at the head OF
one of our great Universities, some
would like to see him enter the
lecture field. Many other fields OF
usefulness have also been proposed.
According to the latest rumor the
president himself aspires to be an
editor, the noblest profession OF
them all.

Labor Day was generally observed
as holiday in all the principal
cities and labor centers Of the land.
1t is a day set apart for special re-
cognition of the dignity of labor,
especially that part Of it which is
performed by human hands. Those
who toll in the factories and mines,
in the building trades, in operating
the great railroads Of the country,
in word, all organized labor, have
special reasons for observing the
day. 1t is largely due to organized
effort on the part of workmen that
their condition in life has been
gradually improved. 1t is not so
very long ago since the man who did
manual labor was looked down upon.
He was regarded as a mere servant,
whose only object in life was to toll
for his master on his masters own
terms. Now all this has changed
and the labor organizations are
largely responsible for this. They
have educated the laboring man as
to what his rights are. Labor is
now recognized as a commodity
which the laboring man has right to
sell in the market. and is entitled
to voice in making the bargain.
There is no doubt but that labor
when fighting for it's rights has at
times been as unjust and tryannical
as in it's methods, as capitalhas often
been, but severe cases sometimes re-
quire drastic treatment, and labor
has certainly had much t. contend
with. Yet the trend has been up
ward and today employers and EN-.
ployees meet as equals, each recognize
ing the rights of the other. BY
working in harmony both capital and
labor will succeed best. Co-opera-
tion is the watchword of our day
cooperation on the part Of labor,
cooperation on the part of capital,
and cooperation between tabor and
capital, and between employer and
employee will tighten the burdens Ct
all, and make life happier and
better.

numerous standard medical works,
oil all the different schools of .prac-
tice, containing very numerous ex-
tracts from the writings of leading
practitioners of medicine, indorsing
in THE STRONGEST POSI-
BILE TERMS, each and every in
gredient contained in DR.. Pierce's
medicines. One of these little books
will be mailed free to any one send
ing address on postal card or by let
ter, to DR.. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo,
n. Y, and requesting the same.
From this little book it will be
learned that DR.. Pierce's medicines
contain no alcohol, narcotics, min
eral agents or other poisonous or
injurious agents and that they are
made from native, medicinal roots
OF great value.
Some of the most valuable ingre-
dents contained in DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription for weak, nerv-
Gus, overworked, rundown, nerv-
Gus and debilitated women, were
employed, long years ago, by the
Indians for similar ailments affect
ing their squaws. In fact, one of the
most valuable medicinal plants en-
tering into the composition of DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription was
known to the Indians as "Squaw-
Weed" Our knowledge Of the uses
OF not a few of our most valuable
native. medicinal plants was gained
from the Indians.
AS made up by improved and ex-
act processes, the ''Favorite Pre-
scription" is a most efficient remedy
for healing alterations, regulating
all the womanly functions, correct
ing displacements, as prolapsus, an
teversion and retroversion, over
coming painful periods, toning up
the nerves and bringing about per-
feet state of health. Sold by all
dealers in medicines.
IT'S AN INSULT TO YOUR
INTELLIGENCE for a dealer to
endeavor to palm off upon you some
nostrum of UNKNOWN CON-
POSITION in place of DR.. Pierce's
world famed medicines which are
OF KNOWN COMPOSITION.
Most dealers recommend Dr.
Pierce's medicines because they
know what they are made of and
that the ingredients employed are
among the most valuable that a
medicine for like purposes can be
made of. The same is true of lead
ing physicians who do not hesitate
to recommend these medicines, since
they know exactly what they con-
tain and that their ingredients are
the very best known to medical SCI
ence for the cure of the several dis
eases for which they are recon-
mended.
WITH TRICKY DEALERS IT
IS DIFFERENT.
Something else that pays them a
little greater profit will be urged
upon you as lust as good" or even
better. You can hardly afford to &C
cept a substitute OF UNKNOWN
COMPOSITION and without any
particular record of cures in place
OF DR.. Pierce's medicines which are
OF KNOWN COMPOSITION
and have a record of FORTY
YEARS OF CURES behind them.
YOU know what you want and it is
the dealers business to supply that
want. INSIST UPON 1T.
