STOWAWAY IN EYES GARB
A Ship Arrived From the Tropics
With a Passenger Who Had
No Wardrobe.

Owing to the sudden and uneX
pected appearance in Providence the
other day of a dusky modern Lady
Godiva from the tropical island of
Hayti Colonel George B. Billings,
commissioner Of immigration for
New England, got busy hustling
around purchasing wearing apparel.
The commissioner was informed
when the ship sailed into Providence
that a stowaway was found aboard
who reveled in the style of Adam
and Eve, with a slight yielding to
modern notions. The commissioner
at once ordered the dusky maiden
detained in the blankets ABOARD ship
until he got a consignment of lin
gerie.
1t appears that the maid, whose
only name is BOla. became infat-
uated with the dusky cook and
slowed away among the blankets in
the galley just before the schooner
left Hayti She speaks a peculiar
dialect, and when she returns home
in consequence of an order of de-
poration which has been issued
against her she bids fair to be elect
ed the belle of the village, and if she
is not kidnapped by some coffee-coI-
ored gallant it will not be because
she has not had a wedding trous-
seau the like of which has never
been seen in her home parts.

MAKE IT YOURSELF.
Says Many Persons Here Can Be
Made Happy Again BY Using
This Home-Made Mixture.

There is so much rheumatism here
in our neighborhood now that the
following advice by an eminent au-
thority, who writes for readers of a
large eastern daily paper, will be
highly appreciated by those who suf-
fer;
Get from any good pharmacy one
half ounce Fluid Extract DandeIion,
one ounce Compound Kargon, three
ounces of Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla. Shake these we'll in a bottle
each meal and at bedtime; also drink
plenty of good water.
1t is claimed that there are few vic
Tins of this dread and tOrturous dis
ease who will fail to find ready re-
lief in this simple homemade mix
ture, and in most cases a permanent
cure is the result.
This simple recipe is said to
strengthen and cleanse the elimina-
tive tissues of the kidneys so that
they can filter and strain from the
blood and system the pOisOns, acids
and waste matter, which cause not
only rheumatism, but numerous 9TH
er diseases Every man or woman
here who feels that their kidneys are
not healthy and active, or who suf-
fers from any urinary trouble what
ever, should not hesitate to make up
this mixture, as it is certain to do
much good, and may save you from
much oDd lffpviOC after
awhile.
Our home druggists say they viii
either supply the ingredients or mix
the prescription ready to take if our
readers ask them.

DRAWS BIGGER AUDIENCES AND
BIGGER RECEIPTS THAN
ANY OTHER SPEAKER.
DEMAND FOR HIM is GROWING
He Frequently lectures to Audiences
of From Five to Ten Thousand
People. 1.-THE Prince of
Peace" His FaVorite.

Peace His EaVorIte.
William E. Curtis, the well-known
newspaper correspondent, writes
from Washington to the Chicago
Record Herald that William ]. Bry-
an is making about $4,000 a year
from his lectures. Charles l.. Wag-
ner, secretary of the Slayton Lyceum
Bureau, which manages his lecture
tours. states that he has filled 175
dates during the year 1907 and that
his receipts for the season have av-
eraged more than $500 for each APP
pearance Mr.. Bryan stands at the
head of the list of platform speak
ers today for the size of his audi
ences, for the receipts at the box
office and for the demands for his
appearance.
Mr.. Bryan's regular charge at
chautauquas, said Mr.. Wagner, lis
the first $3.50 taken at the gate and
half of All the receipts over $500,
not including season tickets. He is
the only man who can make such a
liberal contract For evening lect-
ures in course he charges 5000 cash
as a guarantee and half of all the
receipts at the door. For single
evening lectures not II regular
course he asks half the gross re-
ceipts.
His average for the season under
these terms has been more than
$500 a lecture, and he has probably
filled IT'S dates under our manage
ment without including his political
speeches. He started out on the 9th
of January last and spoke almost ev-
cry day until September 10, frequent
ly twice a day, and once during the
summer three times, morning, after
noon and evening, in three different
towns in Iowa. In addition to these
he has made a large number of po-
litical speeches during the year; he
has spoken at conventions, banquets,
college commandments, Y. NJ. {. A.
and church meetings, and on other
occasions without a fee, of which |
have kept no record.
MI Bryan uses a special form or
contract prepared by himself, which
differs in terms from the contracts of
all other lecturers. The chief feat
ures of his contracts are the stipula-
ton that the general admission to
his lectures shall not exceed so cents;
that he will not lecture under indi-
yidual management or where the
profits go to individuals. The con-
tract reads 1t is further expressly
understood and agreed that this en-
gagement is given under the auspices
OF some church, Young Mems Chris
tfan Association, lecture course, lit
serary, educational, fraternal or char
liable institution, and all profits re-
allied from this lecture shall be used
for the benefit of said auspices under
which said lecture is given. 1t is
further understood that should this
lecture be given under the auspices
of a lecture course there shall be not
less than two other lecturers adver-
tised to appear on said course of en-
tertainment'
"Mr. Bryan never speaks for mon
ey on Sunday except at chautauquas
where an admission fee is charged.
He prefers to speak to free audiences
on that day, and nearly every Sunday

Neglected Colds Threaten Life.
(From the Chicago Tribune.)

From the Chicago Tribune.
"'Don't trifie with cold,' is
good advice for prudent men and
women. 1t may be vital in the
case of child. Proper food, good
ventilation, and dry, warm cloth
ing are the proper safeguards
against colds. If they are main
tanned through the changeable
weather Of autumn, winter and
spring, the chances of a surprise
from ordinary colds will be slight.
But the ordinary light cold will
become severe if neglected, and
well established ripe cold is to the
germs of diphtheria what honey
is to the bee. The greatest men,
ace to child life at this season of
the year is the neglected cold.'-
Whether it is child or adult, the
cold slight or severe, the very
best treatment that can be adopt
ed is to give Chamberlain g Cough
Remedy. 1t is safe and sure. The
great popularity and immense
sale Of this preparation has been
attained by its remarkable cures
Of this ailment. A cold never re-
shlts in pneumonia when it is
given. For sale by ali dealers.
