no doubt of nine-tenths Of the colored
citizens of the United States.

cuss the relative merits Of his advice to
the colored people of the north to come
out to Arkansas and farm" with that OF
Oswald Garrison Willard advising "soli-
darity' as an effective aid to the Negro's
future. You ask the pertinent questions:
Which wins?" Which ought to win?"

terest in the future of the Negro. whose
advice would you, were you a Negro. ac-

5000 a man whose only claim to notori-

rangue before a convention In which he
not only degrades himself by boasting OF
the fact that he Is 'nigger," but revels
in vilification, abuse and slander of the
women Of his race?

A Medical Bath

As every one knows, bath is the most
restfuI and fresheninR Of TestOTatives.
Here is q recipe for medicinal bath
for the nervously worn aud those who
cannot obtain sleep. 1t is the prescrip-
ton of an old physician. Take four
ounces of sea salt; spirits of ammonia,
two ounces; spirits Of camphor, two
ounces; Of pure alcohol, eight ounces, and
sufficient hot wafer to make q full quart
Of the liquid.
Dissolve the sea salt in hot water and
let it stand until cool. Pour into the al.
cohol the spirits Of ammonia and camphor;
add the salt water, shade well and bottle
for use. With soft sponge dipped in
this mixture wet over the surface Of
she whole body; rub vigorously until the
feeling that skin gIows. The rest and re-.
freshed follows will amply repay the effort
required to prepare it.
