WOMEN OF THE BEOE HOUSE

The bede house (which means pray ing house) was founded in the reign Of James | by Henry Howard. the ec- centric earl of Northampton, and the Howard badge is still worn on Sun days and holidays. Nor is this the most curious detail of their attire. for the old ladies are garbed now just as they were in the first days of the foundation-blue gowns. scarlet cloaks and high peaked hats. like these worn by welsh womeng

PUEBLO PREPARING
 10 ENTERTAIN CROWD
At Least Two Magnificent New Hotels
 Are Now Assured.

Pueblo which is to be the meeting place of the next session of the irri- gation congress. is going about the plans for that great convention very energeticaily. It expects to make. the convention a bigger and better one than any of its predecessors though 1t will be entitled to congratulation If it even does as well as Spokane did Pueblo already city of consid- erable size. recognizes that such con vention will tax its local entertainment facilities and to that end is preparing to expand them materially.
 The most notable plan in progress Is the building of a mammoth hotel to De named The Congress" in the belief that (the city probably needs il now and if it doesn't 1t will very soon after The publicity it will receive through the session. It will be noted that the expression fin progress" is used which means that the project Is already ma tcTialiZing. A Pueblo newspaper Tn q recent issue. raprodnccd a picture of the of the proposed building. together with a list of sixty eight names of per sons and firms who have already sub scribed for bonds of the hotel company to give it a working capital, It is noted that the subscribers are all lead ing business and public men. many of them millionaires. so 1t can hardly be feared that there will be financial em- barrassment as the work proceeds.
 According to the picture the main building is of four stories beside the towers. This will be of massive and rather plain architecture while there are two or three adjoining and con meeting structures of mission style so the entire hotel judging from the 2p- pearance of the pictures, will occupy an area about the size of a Phoenix city block
 Letters from Pueblo to B. A. Fowler president of the congress. state also that another hotel project is practically assured there. that if carried out Will house almost as many guests as The Congress hotel The conclusion seems well founded that Pueblo will be in position to properly care for all dele gates and visitors who may care 10 visit the city during the 1910 session.

BRIGHT'S DISEASE

That chronic Bright's Disease is now being cured by treatment that reduces inflammation in the kidneys is beginning to be generally known.
 We copy the following from the San Francisco Bulletin. June 22. 1908:
 The recovery is reported of NIT. z. Lawton, of 264 Fifth Avenue, San Francisco. The case Is especially in teresting, due to the fact that books declare chronic Bright's Disease in curable' and five city physicians had passed on and diagnosed the case. The usual symptoms found in extreme cases were reported-excessive dropsy, enlarged heart and toward the last the patient could only sleep sitting uD. and for six weeks he slept in a chair. Lawton had a cousin. Mrs. w. F. Hoover, of Auburn, who also had an advanced case of Brights Disease She had been tapped three times when she heard of Fulton's Renal Compound and made a fine recovery. This interested Lawton in the treat ment and it resulted in his recovery also He is d Mason. member of Excelsior lodge. and many members will recollect his serious predicament and that they thought they would be called on to pass him over"
 Parties desiring to know more of this treatment can get full literature by addressing the John J. Fulton Company. PIP First St. San Francisco.
 Fulton's Renal Compound can be had in your city of all first class druggists.
 We desire every patient to write wno is not noticing the usual i'm provement by the third week.

The Girl Who Was Too White

to come back to the Islands again. so
she waited, was still waiting, had been
for a year. Perhaps it was the weari-
ness of the past three years, perhaps
partly the soothing peacefulness of the
climate, of the soft breezes, the heavy
od0rs of the flowers, that had made her
willing to stay there and wait, still try
ing in her mind to kin the good that
was in her. 1t was a moral struggle,
you see, not struggle of deeds.

useless. Besides, think was partly

left her there, sitting on the beach,
little bent over, letting a thin stream
of sand run from her hand onto the
ground. The carnation lei hung about
her neck like crimson cord, almost
black in the darkness. The odor of the
flower in the air seemed to hang over
her like material substance
I never saw her again. They found
her there the next morning. Harmon
wrote me about it; I got the letter
after I had returned to San Francisco.
He said she looked very happy and
very beautiful as she lay there with the
light breeze caressing her hair. And
the carnation lei was so fresh and red
that one hardly noticed that the white
dress was also red in one spot.
