of peace. The protection from
force and violence in the prose
cution of work, and this cannot
be done until a stop is put to
war and lynching and peonage
and wage slavery.
"Fifth-He has a right to the
truth. If he has a right to be
protected against physical viol-
ence, he has a greater right to
protection against moral lies.
Race prejudice in this land could
not stand for a day if as much
effort was made to have the
truth in regard to all human be-
ings known as is now made in
trying to spread lies about
them"
These, then, are the FIVE
rights which all men, white and
black, and OF all religions have
the right to demand; the right
of individuality; the right to
portunity; the right to peace,
public courtesy; the right to op-
and the right to truth; and when
men have these rights, the last
bulwarks of prejudice must fall"
Now all that is singularly |
beautiful, as everything is that
comes from the pen and soul
of Professor Dubois.
He is a poet, a man of a
beautiful sensitive nature, who
loves the men of his color and
Of his race.
His book, "The Souls of
Black Folk" ranks among the
finest products of an oppressed
people.
And that is saying a good deal
when we consider that much of
he Old Testament was the work
If slaves and the work of
Aesop was the work of a slave.
And it is interesting to OBJ
serve that Professor Dubois does
lot stae as his first plea, pro-
ection from peonage and wage
lavery.
There is something tragic in ;
he plea OF a race for the right ,
o public courtesy and for the
light to be respected in ones
olor and individuality.
Rights. however, are not won
y pleading nor guaranteed
yhen written into constitution.
They are won by strength
nd prowess, by character and
orce, and independence and
lanhood.
The poet, the artist, the
reamer, may plead for right,
5 a matter OF justice, but the
,orld grants those rights only
,hen they are won
Wage slavery will be abolish
when the workers know their
over and intelligeutly use their =
over.
Negroes will have the right

STARVING FAMILY
Coroner's Appeal to the Public for
Ala

Coroner's Appeal to the Public for
Aid.
Telling OF terrible case of star
vation in Stoke Newington Coroner
Court, DR.. Wynn Westcott, the coro-
ner, asked the press to bring a deserv-
ing case before the notice of the char
liable public.
He said that he had an inquest upon
three-weeks-old baby which had
died of starvation. Its father had had
no regular work for three years, and
only little casual work in that time.
There was SO little money that the
mother, Mrs Attewell, of White Hart
street, Stoke Newington, was half
starved too. She had only had a
crust of bread tot sustain her on the
day her child died, although she had
done nine and half hours washing
to assist the home
The home was perfectly clean, al
though practically destitute Of furni-
ture 1t was a most deserving case.
After reading this item / began
studying the papers more closely. and
| was surprised at the frequency with
which items OF this kind occurred ]
learned that the local Government
Board, which is represented in the
English Cabinet by Mr. John Burns,
has issued since 1871 an annual report
or return, as it is called, of the cases
in which. upon formal investigation
by a coroner's jury. it appears that
the persons came to their death ID
London as a result OF starvation J
obtained a copy of the return for 1908, |
in which are included the statistics on
starvation, not merely tor London but
for the rest of England and Wales
The forms issued to coroners were !
explicit They provided that the re-
turn should include only cases III
which the jury find that death IS
brought about by starvation or prl-
vation due to destitution Cases III
which death was caused by cold star
walton, exposure, etc, unconnectea
with destitutiou. are not entered III
this return. OF the rs cases OF star
walton reported, 81 occurred in Lon
don. In II cases death was described
as due to starvation in conjunction
with some other cause; that IS 10 say

The double-faced satins, black on
one side and colored on the other,
make charming evening coats, but here
the question Of warmth comes in and,
unless one wears an extra wadded silk
Jacket, which Is nuisance, these
garments are hardly satisfactory for
cold weather.
Velvet and velours are making
strong bids for the place OF the black
satin coat this winter, and are being
sold In great numbers, both in expen-
sive form and at moderate prices. The
cheaper velour models are really more
satisfactory Investments than the
high-grade velvet models. for they will
stand harder wear without looking de-
moralized, and some of these cheaper
coats, especially the tur-trimmed ones.
are effective.
The metallic laces, usually in the ex-
tremely heavy kinds, and the dull or
tarnished tones are highly favored

In every conceivable way as trimming

A man who takes his vacation in
northern Michigan every summer
brought back to Cleveland the other
day man-servant who had never
been in a city before. The sights and
scenes along Euclid avenue impressed
him peculiarly. Recently he went to
his employer and said:
"Mr. Ebergardt. guess I'll have to
go back home"
'Why. Jim, haven't we treated you
well here?"
"Yep-treatmetn's all right But I'm

To Be Taken Seriously.

Take advantage of your opportuni-
ties, but don't take advantage" OF
them.
1t seldom requires very strong
levee to withstand a flood Of generos-
ity.
You can't convince an average man
that he isn't little above the av.
erage.
He who knows who to make much
of little generally hase something to
spare.
Sometimes when you say writer 10

is beyond your depth.
When you begin to suspect fault
in yourself you may be sure it is quite
plain to others.

LATEST IDEA IN COMBS
For the silver Me,h Raa.

On account of its durability the sill
yer mesh bag will not go out Of exist
ence for some ti1ns to come. In fact,
as there is a wide sale Of them still
being made, it is wise to keep them
in the highest luster of which you are
capable. Where there is nothing but
silver in the makeup Of your bag the
best cleaner is a rather strong solu-
ton of ammonia and water, in which
the bag can be boiled for short
space Of a minute, and then shook
about in 1t SO as to dislodge every
little particle of dust. You will be
surprised how much dust this process
will show up.

COAT STYLES FOR ALL
EVERYBODY SHOULD BE SUITED
WITH LATEST NODES.
Materials and Designs Produce More
Excellent Results Than Ever
Within Memory Of the
Average Woman.

So lovely are the materials provided
Tor the coatmakers this autumn that
even the ordinary designer obtains
excellent results when he does not
try to blaze a trail for himself and Is
contented to follow more or less hum
bly, in the beaten path. says the New
York Sun.
For practical purposes there has
never been within the average woman's
memory anything in the line OF even
ing coats more satisfactory than the
coat Of handsome black satin cut on
simple but graceful lines and trusting
to these lines rather than to trimming
for its cachet. Lined with bright col
or or in some fashion effective II not
bright, such coat has festive air.
yet can be worn for many occasions
where light and perishable evening
coat would be out of place. and 1t will
stand surprising amount OF hard
wear.
OF course, for the debutante some
thing brighter and more youthful in
coloring Is preferable, but for the old
er woman 1t would be hard to make a
better choice. provided she is willing
to pay for tirst-class materials.
There are some good coats in black
satin lined with bright-hued broad
cloth instead of colored satin or other
silken stun. and these when well de-
signed are not only smart but have q
desirable warmth without the intro
duction Of wadding or other interim
ing which is likely to hamper the
grace Of the coat folds and lines.
One imported model In black satin
lined with cardboard cloth Of exquisite
quality, showed the cloth in the big
soft pelerine collar and the wide turn
back cuffs, and was reversible, SO tina,
the owner could wear coral broad
cloth coat instead of black one.

New Neckband.

A most charming complement to an
evening colffure is the imported neck
band of velvet fastened at one side by
a cluster of flowers with dangling
buds. Older women may wear jewels
at this Iasteuing. To make a cluster.
of flowers for this band one has only to
cut folds-bias, If possible-of soft
silk, satin. or chiffon about the length
and width of ones finger. Gather the
raw edge and whip together SO that
small roses are formed.-Harper's Ba-
