 The best way to get rid of indiKes- tion is to put the stomach in perfect condition. This you can do by going to F. G. Fowler and getting & 50 cent box of Mi-o-na tablets. which he will guarantee to cure or money back. Then read carefully the little circular you will find in every box and 1t will tell you how to keep q stomach good after you get it good.
 Mi-o-na is sold in every town in America. and in Montgomery by K. e. Fowler.

THE HELPLESS POOR.

Referring to Senator Culberson, the
New Orleans State says:
"IIe recognized that the great
masses of the people are and forever
must be poor, and one of the primary
ends of government is to protect the
millions of the helpless poor from the
avarice and oppression of the few who
are strong and aggressive"
All of which is certainly very true,
and the words should have great force
because of their truth and Importance.
But they will not have that effect, SIM
ply because the Senator's whole life
has been such as to show that he
kicks only when his OK is gored.
The majority of the helpless poor in
Texas are black people, but when Cul-
berson was Governor of Texas he fail
ed to see that the end of government
was to protect the helpless poor
Senator Culberson's life has been
spent in aiding to enact such legisla-
tion as would make the helpless poor
still more helpless.
To this day the helpless poor white
man is stumbling along in ignorance
and degradation in consequence of
conditions to which he was subjected,
during the slavery regime, but the
aristocrats who controlled the South
ern states. Sic vas non vobis.

their husbands and brothers with
dark-skinned concubines. In thou
sands Of innstances, the dark-ski 1ned
concuhine has had the real preference
over the white wife. We have known
of not few cases in which a South
ern woman would not have a good
looking cook or nurse about the house
she did not dare to admit a pros
pective rival in the affections of her
husband. And we also know that but
few of the class Of Afro-Americans
who have homes of their own will al
low their daughters to go out to serv-
ice-they are afraid to subject them
to the inducements and temptations of
such vocation.
Some may condemn THE APPEAL
for speaking thus plainly, but it is
simply enlarging upon the views of
Georgia white woman, and telling the
truth into the bargain.

L.UNATIC LAMB.

THE APPEAL has already adverted
to the Order of True America as-an
organization hatched out in the illus
trious city of Rome, Ca, which pro,
poses to buy all the real estate in the
United States, owned by Afro-Ameri-
cans, and to transport the owners to
the Lord knows where. The boss OF
the machine is the Rev. Mr.. Lamb
and the order is said to have branch:
es in every Southern state. If the
Georgians really thought that Lamb
could ''tole off, a half-dozen workers
from the plantations, they would
lynch him, so they probably regard
him as a harmless kind of idiot.

About six miles west of Laggan the

the course of the turbulent stream
known as the Kicking Horse river,
through charming scenery, with
glacier fields almost constantly in
sight, dominated by mountain peaks
10000 and 11,000 feet in height. AS
we approach Golden Station we pass
through the deep mountain gorge
known as Kicking Horse canyon, with
towering cliffs, almost shutting out
the sunlight, twisting and turning in
every direction and every few minutes
plunging through protective rocky
angles by tunnels cut out of the solid
rocks. The roar of the river and train
was apparently increased hundred
fold by the echoing walls.
Near Golden gold and silver mines

We soon enter the Beaver valley,
where we find the railroad runs along

a thousand feet above the river, which
appears like silver thread winding

above the level of the sea, we find
ourselves between two lines of huge

der whose parapet, 5000 or 5000 feet
above the valley, half dozen glaciers
may be seen at once, and so near that

Chinese Ruler Had Hundreds of Pam.
pered Pets of All Breeds

The late empress dowager of China
was fond of dogs and owned some
beautiful Pekinese pugs and a kind of
Skye terrier. The pugs are bred with
the greatest care and they are wonder
fully intelligent animals, and it is
said that the King Charles spaniels
were bred from the first Chinese pugs
brought to Europe. The empress dow
ager had dozens of dogs, but two espe-
cial favorites. One was of the Skye
breed and most clever at tricks, lying
dead" at his mistress command and
never moving an inch until she bade
him. Her other chief pet was faWn-
colored Pekinese pug named Shadza

WHITE WOMAN TELLS THE
TRUTH.

Mrs V. A. Majette, white woman
of. Jesup, Ga. has something to say
on the question of lynching that is of
special interest. and we quote one or
two of her remarks.
Sne says: 'The cry of rape is
started by some hysterical woman,
when there has never been shadow
of such, only in frenzied imagination.
She does not fail to give the Georgia
majors rub, when she says: eff the
white man takes to the black mans
woman, what then when the black
man dares to lift lustful eyes to the
white mans woman?"
Mrs. Maiette is right. Ali tnat the
white women of the South have suf-
fered from "black brutes'' is not a
drop in the bucket to what they have
suffered from the illicit relations Of

characteristics of our own peerless
Yellowstone National park. Snow
clad peaks of greater heights, how
ever, are in evidence, and in that re-
spect remind one more of the Alpine
| scenery of Switzerland. That huge
| oeight, whose peaks are covered with
| eternal snow, is known as the Cas-
,ades. To the eastward the Fair
holmes, behind which lies Lake Min
lnewanka. That sharp cone, known as
Peechee (called after an Indian chief)
closes the view in that direction.
Along the razorlike back of the Sui
phur mountain, 5000 feet high, the
Dominion government has established
an observatory. It is a favorite climb
for visitors to the park. The Alpine
club is located half way up the, noun
tain side. The isolated bluff south
ward, known as Tunnel mountain"
has some beautiful driveways made
by the Dominion government, from
! which pleasing vistas can be had Of
the Bow river falls and valley. Wild
sheep and goats can be seen on neigh
boring heights. About twenty miles
south of the park entrance is Mount
Assiniboine, said to be the Matter
born of America. The way to it leads
through beautiful valleys studded with
transparent blue lakes and park-like
prairie openings.

"Reminiscences to the tourist over the
Canadian Pacific railway, to leave
the train at this station and go up the
mountains with us to visit these
lakes. Lake Louise is one of natures
rarest gems of beauty. It lies at an
elevation of 5,645 feet, and is shut in
Oh every side, by rocky snow-capped
heights, a picture of perfect peace. AS
you stand on it's shores and look
southwark across it's mirrored surface
you will observe the forefront of the
great glacier, slanting upward until it
reaches a depth of 500 feet of solid
blue and green ice, fed continuously
by avalanches from that great mass
of snow and ice on the endless groups
of enormous heights beyond, the peak
dominating the scene is Mount Vic
toria, $4,000 feet high. The ascent
from Lake Louise to Mirror lake and
Lake Agnes at an altitude $500 feet,
can be made by mountain tracks on
horseback or afoot, and well repays
one for the climb. Beehive Mount lin

rock without verdure, towers for hun
