Locally, the Democrats will not be
asleep any longer. A big smoker is
planned for h latter part Of next
week, to be held at the Democratic
headquarters. A band will be secured

and the wives and daughters invited.
An election day feature, calculated
to bring out the voters, will be barbe-
cue dinners and p~icnics at all the

There vas an enthusiastic attend
ance at the meeting of the Bryan-Lar-
razolo Club at Democratic neadquar-
tiers in the Gaullieur block last night.
And it was an Interesting meeting,
from start to finish. Judge w. w.
Gatewood, president of the Club, was
the only speaker, and his address
was somewhat in the form of a con-
fidential talk. Before the close of the
evening plans for the five remaining
weeks of the campaign were discuss
ed freely, and many important points
decided upon. The keynote Of the
chief address and Of the whole meet
ing, in fact, was organization.
The Bryan-Larrazolo Club and the
DEMOCRATIC County Central Commit
tee proposes to see that every Dem
ocrat in the county Is called upon to
realize the Importance Of doing his
duty at the coming election. Every
Democratic vote is needed and count
ed on. With Chaves, Eddy and Roose-
welt counties thoroughly organized,
the Democrats al carry the terrory
whenever they please. These counties
can hold the balance Of power IL they
will The Democrats in these counties
should organize as a preparation for
statehood. for they can owing the

Some think that a line set In very large type Is strong and convincing but all strong men are not six-footers and wild yell Is neither polite, elo- quent or reasoning.
 In all legitimate advertising 1t Is better to be definite Separate one arti- cle from another clearly. Make each proposition distinct. Exhibit the feat ures as you would a picture. Indi- viduality Is an asset of all goods and should be of the representation of them In the advertisement. People of this age like facts and the really interested buyer likes them best of all.
 A newspaper may boom town through its editorial columns, but a critical investor looks to the adver- tising columns for substantial evidence of push and life. To him they are the thermometers measuring the intensity of public warmth. They are the pulse which indicates the healthy condition of the collective body of the people. They tell him whether or not the con- munity Is up to times In business mat. ters.
 A large advertiser says: When l read an advertisement that Is particu- larly attractive to me, assume that 1t will be equally attractive to others. When I read line of argument that appeals to me reason that the same line will convince others Suppose you take the question of position. Do you yourself read more frequently the ad- vertisements which are at the top of the column or page or those at the bottom? What display attracts you most? Then about prices. Are you tempted to buy s1 article because it is marked down to 75 cents? The argument which caused you to consider 1t will serve you in turn when you write about the special price you de. sire to make.

DUST AND LUNG TROUBLES.
Inyestisator Finds that Hard Dust

1nvestigator Finds that Hard Dust
 Is Cause of Tuberculosis.
 Milwaukee can swell herself up with pride over her low death rate," said Beverly White, at the Davidson last night.
 MT. White Is a Chicago newspaper man, and Is In Milwaukee for the pur. pose of preparing special article on tuberculosis, especially tuberculosis of the lungs, for the Western Press Bu. reau.
 Tt Is the opinion among experts" said Mir. White, that stone or hard dust Is the most vicious of all dusts ip producing tuberculosis. Dr. Bading, your health commissioner, who seems a sincere and earnest man. told me that dust was one of the worst factors In the spread of the disease, and he should make a crusade against 1t. He believes as l gather from what he said to me that constant flushing of asphalt streets for time would so do away with the dust that the necessity for frequent
 
 essary. This with consistent sprlnkllna of macadam streets he thinks, would reduce the death rate, especially from lung diseases
 That non-odorous or hard dust Is the worst of all for the lungs |. shown in the charts issued by the United States government, based on the censu. of 1900. In this chart, copy of which have here, the deaths to each 100000 marble workers and stone cutters is 540.5. Cigarmakers come next with 479.9, as the dust from tobacco catche. hard particles. Millers of all kinds show only 2078 deaths to each 100000. The dust In grain Is a starchy dust, and not injurious to the lungs. From the showing of the chart we might prefe, to be bankers or brokers, the death. among that class being small.-Mllwau. kee Sentinel.

Always Keen Faith,

Many a woman who would not think of lightly breaking promise made to a grown-up person Is utterly careless about keeping her word with her chill dren. She promises whatever is con venient at the moment, and apparently thinks that the breaking or keeping of those promises is a matter in which she can please herself, and that her children have no right to consider themselves aggrieved if she does not do so. A mother who acts thus does her child grevous harm, says the Pic torial Review. She forgets that the sense of justice is strong in quite lit tie child, and that it is natural and reasonable that he should expect his parents to be as good as their word and to fulfill their promises even at the cost of convenience. Promises should not be lightly broken, and the parent who is guilty of this soon loses his children's confidence, which is one of the sweetest things which our little ones can give us.

Conversation Hints.

Do not interrupt another while speaking.
 Do not find fault, though you may gently criticise.
 Do not appear to notice inaccuracies of speech in others.
 Do not talk of your private. personal and family matters.
 Do rot always commence a conyer- sation by allusion to the weather.
 Do not, when narrating an incident, continually say you see,' you know
 Do not intrude professional or other topics that the company cannot take an interest in.
 Do not speak disrespectfully of per sonal appearance when any one pres ent may have the same defects.
 Do not talk very loudly. A firm, clear, distinct, yet mild, gentle and musical voice has great power.
 Do not be absent-minded, requiring the speaker to repeat what has been said, that you may understand.
 Do not try to force yourself into the confidence of others. If they give their confidence, never betray it.
 Do not intersperse your conversation with foreign words and high-sounding terms. It shows affectation and will draw rldicule upon you.

Lost King Richard.

King Richard was missing. It was dinner-time, and his majesty was not In the habit of being absent at this hour. Indeed, no one could recollect that such a thing had ever happened before.
 Messengers ran in all directions to seek him.
 Kitty, Kitty" cried Bess, down the garden.
 Poor pussy, come to dinner!" coax ed Rob, prying into all the corners of the cellar.
 As for Marjorie, she had been look ing everywhere, and when she found 1t was all of no use, she just sat down and cried.
 There's no good In that" said Rob. Hell come back, just as soon without it."
 But Marjorie was inconsolable King Richard was her own pussy, and nat urally she felt worse than any one else. At least, so said Marjorie. The others secretly believed that they cared quite as much for King Richard as Marjorie did, only they had more self-control.
 Supper-time came, and still his maj esty had not returned. Bess cried, too, then. And when the clock struck s, which was bedtime, and still he had not been found, the grief was univer- sal.
 This was Thursday. On Friday the children secured the neighborhood, seeking for tidings of their pet. All in vain, King Richard was not seen or heard of.
 "To think how he may be suffering somewhere" moaned poor Marjorie. Rob was anxious about King Richard, too.
 By Saturday night all hope was given up, and when the children went to church on Sunday. and took their places in the minister's pew, they wore sad little faces.
 At the end of the anthem papa stood up In the pulpit. We will sing the ninety-third hymn" he announced, In his deep, rich voice.
 "Mew." came from somewhere. The little folks in the minister's pew start ed, and looked at one another.
 "'From all that dwell below the skies--'"
 "Meow Me-ow."
 The children were quiverlng with e1- citement now. People in the congrega- ton began to smile. Papa read louder.

Education has two sides, the mate rial and the immaterlal and of these the immaterial is the nobler; but so severe, apparently, Is the contest among individuals for wages, and so keen among nations the struggle for supreln- acy In commercial and industrial pur- suits and operations, that the adran- tages of education In the intellectual and spiritual development of mankind are often kept out of sight. The Danes, in their peoples high schools, have bet ter than other nations, succeeded in combining the two sides of continuation school work. Against the danger in- volved in excessive utilitarianism Prof. Sadler utters q timely warning: Let us not identify the world for which we seek to train every child solely with the world of material interests and of visible things Let us not forget, In our educational plans, the weight that should be attached to the claims of the

Color Gossip,

Have human beings, like animals, a tendency to clothe themselves in colors that reproduce the prevailing tone of their surroundings? There Is another question for scientists who have dis covered that different colors produce differing effects on the health and dIs- position of individuals. At all events color conventions in different parts of the world are decidedly at variance For example, while we use black in mourning the Chinese wear white gowns, white caps, white shoes and white ties on their cues. The royal color in Europe Is purple-a hue of red, not of violet, as often misrepre- scented. In China the imperial color Ia yellow, and certain shade of yellow may not be worn by the common peo- pie, but Is conferred upon high officials as a great distinction.
 Some individual color preferences are historical. Cleopatra loved yellow. Mime. de Pompadour delighted in charming mixture of pink and blue; Napoleon's first empress, Josephine, wore the daring combination of black. white and emerald green. while EugenS Field boldly declares that
 Any color, so long as it's red,
 Is good enough for me.

The war with Japan left Russia prac tlcally without a navy. It Is not sur prislng that she should be thinking and planning the construction of new fleet. and a reasonable naval program would be taken everywhere as matter of course. reasonable program would recognize accomplished facts the loss of Port Arthur, the dashing Of the hopes of an icefree port in the Pacific, the blow to the schemes of empire In the East. But the naval pro gram which the admiralty has prepared and wants the duma to approve Is con sidered wild not only by all the lib- erals but by many of the conservative editors and writers as well. The total to be spent in nine years Is consider ably over billion, and the appropria- tons for this year for new construc- tion and some improvement work at ports and naval stations amount to 43,500,000. This certainly seems far too ambitious program for a country struggling with a famine In some prov inces and suffering from poor crops generally, industrial and political dis order and staggering debt burdens. Al most the entire press has opposed the schemes of the admiralty as foreshad- owed In semi-official statements, md has pointed to the need of agrarian re- form. which will cost a good deal of money, of universal primary education, of public works and other things that are essential In themselves, and, In addition, conditions of pacification and regeneration. But It is reported that the court including the Car himself,
 is determined to force the acceptance of the program as It stands Indeed, the duma has already been told by high bureaucrats that it would be dissolved if it should decline to ratify the naval budget. What the Octoberists and the other moderates and conservatives In that body will do remains to be seen. The fanatical reactionaries, 1t Is be gram in order to bring about the dlsso- lution threatened. They love the navy, but their hatred of the duma and of reform is deeper. Perhaps, however, the government will finally agree to compromise on an alternative program of more modest proportions to cover shorter period. The prospects of new foreign loans will have something to do with it's attitude.

The Baby's Escape,

The child was only one year old, and the mother. with unspeakable carelessness, allowed 1t to crawl around on the floor of the car, while she talked to some of the other passengers. She was all the more care less In that the door of the car was standing open. When the train was about twelve miles from Albuquerque, and going at full speed, the baby was suddenly missed. There could be only one solution of the mystery-the baby had evidently crawled out onto the platform and fallen off. Fortunately, a station was soon reached and party of men went back with a hand. car, to bring the body of the boy to the distracted mother. But they found lively little body, few miles back, for the child had not been Injured al all. but was playing in the sand by the side of the track

knuckles is a fashion that is being re- vived.
 The touch of green is chic just now, and includes the kid slippers of rich laurel green.
 A new freak is to wear rings on the index finger and the thumb, leaving the other fingers unadorned.
 A glorified rajah silk just out seek ing spring favor, has a satin finish and Is in two tone weave.
 Chip straw hats, 1t Is said, again will blossom out. Just now leghorns lead. Coarse straws are more promi- nant than formerly.
 A new huff Is knitted of angora wool. It is shaped like pillow, is fluffy as kitten, and should be accom- panied by scarf to match.
 Roman stripes are here and are to be had in taffeta, with the stripes in dull shades. These stripes also are worked out in Scotch gingham.
 Close fitting frocks make it neces- sary that the petticoat should cling. A new kind with elastic gores set In over the hips clings like a tailormade.
 Cloth and net Is a favorite combina- tion for waists that are to be worn with the tailor suit. The blouse Is usually of the net with bands of chif- fon broadcloth.
 Long insertions of lace extending from the bust Into the bottom of the gown, narrowing slightly at the waist, are a favorite trimming and give long, graceful lines to the figure.

The necessity, which sailors under stand so well, of making everything fast on shipboard, was illustrated by a recent neglect of the precauton on the steamship Persian. The vessel was coming up the coast from Philadelphia to Boston, when a heavy steel safe broke loose from its checks. and for an hour fought a battle wnth the sail ors like that which Hugo, in the fa- nous chapter of "Ninety-three," de- scribes as taking place on the French man-of-war. The safe first dashed from the captains cabin, and plunglng through the door, started down across the deck. Fore and aft and from side to side it lurched and plunged, smash ing or carrying away everything in its path, and threatening the lives of the men at every rush. Finally, by the aid of ropes, furniture and capstan-bars, it was checked, lassoed and made fast. Those who had part in the battle will read "Ninety-three' with new insight hereafter.

The shiny Nose.

The greasy skin that causes such heartburnings among women who can not prevent their noses from shining, Is a result of disordered condition of the fat-producing glands of the skin.
 The secretion from these glands Is both abnormal in amount and is al tered In character being more oily than usual. The skin of the forehead, cheeks and nose Is affected, the mouths of the tiny glands being dilated, and often there Is noticeable enlargement of the superficial blood vessels. The cause is unknown.
 It occurs chiefly in young adults, In women more frequently than In men, and In brunettes more than in blondes. The patient may be in perfect health otherwise, but the condition Is often met with in consumptives, and in anae- mic, generally rundown subjects. Treatment must be constitutional, as there are no specific remedies. Tonics containing iron, arsenic or strychnine are often of benefit Locally, evapor- ating lotions containing alcohol or ether may be tried. These, together with some pure powder, used with dis cretion, are the only means by which this unfortunate skin condition can be improved. The powder should only be lightly dusted on, and should never be rubbed into the skin so as to clog the pores.
 The face should first be washed and carefully dried, then bathed in some cooling toilet water, and dried again after which a very small amount of the powder should be lightly dusted on.
