WHY LINEN GOODS ARE
 COOLER THAN COTTON

day as it is now. A man wounded in an engagement, he says, has his torn limbs bound up. Now, supposing that the persons concerned had their choice be- tween linen and cotton there can be no doubt that they would choose linen as most suitable for such a purpose. Cotton. when applied to wounds. irritates them.
 The cooling quality of linen as compared to cotton is due to the fact that the structure of the flax fibre makes linen d good conductor of heat, and one that free ly condenses the vapor of precipitation. Notwithstanding the fact that the cool ing quality of linen when applied to wounds has been well known, it is only lately that an absorbent linen surgical dressing has been produced, under tine name of "oxolint." This is one of the by-products of the first American linen mills esta blished at North Brookfield Mass, and operating under a method of manufacture that accomplished in a few hours the work that requires from eight to ten weeks by European methods of linen making. The World Today" in an article on this innovation, says:
 "The one reason why linen fibre has never been made in this country is that the European process would be impossi- bly,, expensive unless carried out by labor of the very lowest cost. There is no labor ln the United States cheap enough for this purpose and for this reason Arneri- cans have been sending over s2O000000 d year to Europe for linen Now mills have been built in Massachusetts to opera te the Nudge process. and there is an as- sured market for the millions of dollars worth of flax straw that we have been burning up for years and chance to get linens for little if any more than tho present cost of fine cotton fabrics"

Will Test Afrship.

Hot Springs, Ark, June 21.-The afr ship patented by Joe Rice of this city will be ready for its first trip early next week. The ship is designed after the better points of the ones participating in the interha- tional races last fall at St. Louis. with the difference being in the matter of steerage. Rice's ship has all propellers on movable "knuckles," which are worked automatic- ally to change the direction of the vessel without the necessity of a rudder. The government has watched the progress of the invention, and will have a representa- tive here to witness the first aerial flight, The first trip proposed is from Hat Springs to St. Louis, along the route of the Mis- sissppi river valley.

TAFT FRIEND
Of THE NEGRO
As Well As All of His FamiI,
Declares John C. Dancy,
of Washington.

. John G. Dancy. Of Washington, D.
O., recorder OF deeds for the District
of Columbia, who addressed the
graduating class of the colored high
school last night. in a brief interview
dispels the idea that William ii. Taft
has in any way been unfriendly to
the colored people.
ITO the contrary" says Mr..
Dancy. THE attitude OF the Taft
family and Taft himself has ever been
most friendly to the colored race.
They were straight abolitionists and
William II. Tafts father, AIphonzo
Taft. was secretary of war in General
Grants cabinet aud one of the
staunchest supporters of the Grant
policies.
William II. Taft himself in every
way has shown himself one of our
staunchest friends. He has to my
knowledge appointed two zcolored
lleutenants In, the army in the
Philippines, one of whom he got out
of my own office. He has had more
largely to do with the colored race
than any other cabinet official in
years. There is Porto Rico, he has
had to look after; also the Philip.
pines and Cuba, and they are all
friends of his and he of them.
TAFT has done more to destroy
race prejudice than any other in
fiuence in the country and in no in
stance to my knowledge has he shown
the slightest mfriendliness to yhe
race.

ped men of the country for the Presl-

over TWO THOUSAND
VISITORS A day
Cooper Explains Reason for Remarkable
Average of Boston Callers.

During L. T. Cooper's recent stay
in Boston, 1t is estimated that sixty.
five thousand people talked with him
and purchased his medicine. This
is an average Of over two thousand a
day.
His success was SO phenomenal as
to cause universal comment both by
the public ard the press. There must
be reason for this. Here is the
reason given in his own words by Mr.
Cooper when interviewed on the sub
iect. He said:
'The immense numbers Of people
who are calling on me mere in Boston
is not unusual. / have had the same
experience for the past two years
wherever / have gone. The reason Is
O simple one. 1t is because my medi.
cine puts the stomach in good condi.
ton. This does not sound unusual,
but 1t is in fact the key to health. The
stomach is the very foundation OF
life. attribute so per cent. OF
all sickness directly to the stomach.
Neither animals nor men can re-
main well with a poor digestive appa.
ratus. Few can be sick with a diges-
ton in perfect condition. As matter
OF fact, most men and women today
are half-sick. 1t is because too much
food and too little exercise have grad
ually forced the stomach into a half
sick condition. My medicine gets the
stomach back where 1t was, and that
is all that is necessary"
Among Boston people who are
staunch believers in Mr.. Cooper's
theory, Is Dir. Frank D. Brown. Of 81
