even at considerable personal sacrifice

credit than he receives. Many a well

Of Interest to Women,

Every woman naturally should be

women, unfortunately, are not, owing

knows what. If they would just get
a box of Brandreth's Pills, and take
them regularly every night for a time,
all their trouble would disappear, as
these pills regulate the organs of the
feminine system. The same dose al
ways has the same effect, no matter
how long they are used.
Brandreth's pills have been in use
for over a century, and are for sale
everywhere, plain or sugar-coated.

"Throughout Mr.. Clay's performance

the mouth, and that kept charging

man.
Haven't you noticed" queried the
other, with all this talk about the
passing of the blonde, that a new type
OF blonde girl has sort of sprung up
lately? It's the tawny kind, sort of
red-gold, yellow all over. The Radium
Blonde has hair that is neither red
nor gold When she wears green or
brown or red, her hair looks red, but
when she wears white or black it
looks golden. She has eyes of the
same puzzling description, tiger-yel-
low. Her skin isn't light and it isn't
dark, but there's a dull glow in her
cheeks. Altogether she looks like a
faint sunrise or a tiger. And she has
all the Fascinating ways and the dan
gerous disposition of the tiger. She
seems possessed of the r~ed-headed
girls temper and Geviltry and of the
gentle purring femininity of the gold
en- blonde. ! call her the Radium
Blonde because she's a comparatively
new discovery of mine, and because
she's so much rarer than the plain
golden girl.'-New York Press.

Greek Emiqration Increasing.

Information received by the govern
ment from various Greek provinces in
dicates that the emigration to America
is increasing. A committee of depu-
ties has been appointed to look into
the matter, and it is probable that
measures will be adopted to restrict
and limit emigration from Greece. It
is estimated that by the end of the
year the number of those who have
eXpatriated themselves will reach 20
600. Hitherto emigration has taken
place principally from the Peloponne-
suS, but it is now spreading to central
Greece, to Thessaly and the islands.
To the last call for conscripts for the
army in last September not more than
half the usual rumber responded.

much toward checking and correcting
his growing evil, by liberal advertis-
ing and publishing prices, they should
not be expected to do it all. Every
newspaper should preach home trade,
every teacher should instil it into his
pupils in the school room, every min
lister should preach it from the pull
pit. The debating societies and po-
litical conventions should discuss 1t.
The interests of town and country
and newspaper and church, and So
ciety generally, are so interviewer and
so identical that whatever Injuries one
will eventually injure all. When the
merchants are compelled to bring on
smaller stocks, and employ less help,
and pay cheaper rent, they are not
alone the sufferers; the whole com.
munity feels the loss. The price of
real estate is largely dependent on it's
proximity to a good town. Rents are
dependent on the amount of business.
The merchant a move to some other
own and establish himself again more
readily than can the professional man
and many others who have built up
business through years of acquaint-
lnceship and establishment of char
acter. If the farmer, or property own
ar in town, want to sell out they are
he greatest sufferers-they can't
move their property to some place
where people are booming their town
md country by patronizing home.
The remedy lies in education and
publicity. In many places that edu-
cation will come through bitter ex-
perience, but, In other communities,
where they are quicker to detect the
approaching evil, and heed more read
lily the warnings Of the press and
friends of home, they may correct the
evil more readily.
Wealth and power are corrupting
influences and the mail order houses
are probably not sending out as hon
est goods as they once did. They have |
learned the tricks of imitation and
substitution and how easy it Is to
deceive the public. But, If the mail
order man is honest, and his methods
of advertising legitimate in every way,
his success is of no interest to us
and will never benefit our community
in the slightest degree. If crops should
fail or sickness render us short of
money we could not expect him to
trust us for a dollar-we must always
look to the home merchant for credit

Who is to blame? The mail order
house? Not in the least. We alone
are to blame. The nearsighted mer-

A PIANO IN HIS LuNoS.

OF all the musical curiosities that
Nature has produced lately n OF the
oldest is a man with a piano in his

a man by the name of Pearson, his
native state is said to be Arkansas,

undue effort, send forth remarkable
melodies which sound like the music
of a piano with a melodeon accom-.
paniment.
This lung piano, as 1t has been
termed by the owner, is partly a gift
of Nature, but Pearson has cultivated
the use of the extraordinary instru.
ment very carefully and thoroughly,
until now he is able to play several
familiar tunes with wonderful expires.

stockman was greatly surprised, he
supposed he had been dealing with

from cotton stalks. In addition to
this, a variety of b%y-products, such as
alcohol, nitrogen, material for gun
