time the Federation was honored with
the presence of our newly elected Re
publican Mayor, Herbert P. Keller,
who made short and interesting and
encouraging speech.
DR.. Booker r. Washington made
what was generally considered to be
the best speech he ever made in st.
Paul. 1t certainly was filled with
meat for serious thought and ought to
inspire all who heard it to renewed
and more earnest efforts to HELP
OURSELVES. A reception was ten
dered DR.. Washington at the close of
the meeting and the immense crowd
that packed the house to overflowing
availed itself of meeting and greeting
the renowned Sage of Tuskegee. DR..

A future deliberately limited to a single
week, the time of its expiration set ex-
a city for high noon of the seventh day. is
the groundwork of this story. The cause
of this untoward act of usurpation of
power lies in the acute and morbid con-
seriousness of the burden cast upon the
present by solcitude for the future-a
deadly. wasting burden. There follows
the not illogical plan to fill the present
to the brim by shutting off a future. and
all thought and preparation
for it upon enjoyment of the present in
stead The means of this happy fulfill
men. is the discovery and use of a drug
whose effective and unobtrusive services
eliminate in an even week. This inven
ton. ingenious if not yet practicable.
gives the author a fine fling at the study
mental and moral reactions in the face
of a certain, definite. almost immediate
doom. And the young man of this story,
in the short span of seven days, does turn
some Herculean tricks i'll the way of

The Apple Cure for Drink.

From the Milwaukee Evening Wisconsin.
The eating of raw apples as a cure for
the drink habit was confidently recon-
mended by DR. Samuel Bailey at the re-
cent state convention of Iowa horticul-
turists at Des Moines. He told the dele
gates that eating apples will not only
abate the appetite for liquor. but will
cure the most confirmed drunkard, IL the
drunkard eats enough of them. The doc
tor did not put forward the apple cure as
a theory. but as a fact demonstrated in
many instances within his personal
knowledge He said furthermore that the
appetite for tobacco Is also limited by the
eating of apples.
Con sidering the evil consequences which
the eating Of an apple Is said to have
brought upon the human race. 1t is Peas
ant to tn nix that the popular fruit has
the property Of exercising an influence
on the side Of virtue.
If apples will cure the drink habit. they
are the safest remedy that ever has been
proposed. Moreover. they are ready to
everybody hand and easy to be tried 1t
should be a task of little difficulty to in
duce those who need the cure to try them.
Many man would eat an apple or a bar
rel Of apples who would refuse to sign
pledge.
