Now a days. everything that has
grown to frightful dimensions 10 this
country because and only because
of the white mans endorsement and
cultivation OF Gin, is called a prob
lem.
The worst problem" it is claimed
that exists in this country is, the
NEGRO problem" The only prob.
lem relative thereto, is the non sp.
plication OF the golden rule. This
problem alone hangs on this simple
fact; that the white man lacks enough
OF the religion Of Jesus Christ to
treat the black man as q man spd
brother. That's all.
It was not of his will the Negro
came here; it was not Of his will and
liking that he was degraded, it wos
no part Of bis delight that his w.
men were ruined-all of which the
whites are responsible for, and We
have presented the case, and they
must pleod their cause before tie
bar OF God. where no quibblipg will
be allowed. The Negro is willing
and wants TO be manly map, but
the majority Of the whites are united
against that, and everything they
can do, is done to impede bic progress
added to which, everything is doGe
to bumiliate those who have made
themselves such in spite Of all their
opposition. Another problem -
wholly the while man 's-for he
no, kes it, sells it ard licenses men
to sell it, and puts revenue of hun
dreds of millions Of dollars on it,
with which government officials and
church members at that-from the
Supreme Court down,-salaries are
paid. 1t is wbiskcy-the abuse and
not the use of which has cursed the
world. This problem the Negro has
nothing to do with 80 far as making
it, but he is called on the country
over to help crush it out, and it
ought to be, but in the name Of God
are the christian people eht in jim :
Growing Gods colored people, so
many Of whom ARE willing to helr
emash it? Why should Gods pco-
pie adopt the plans of wicked and
debased shows when opposing wha,
they declare TO be the blackest sir
on earth?
Tho ballots will all 80 into one
box. and as no one can tell who put
them there, so ought the efforts o.
one and all unite in good cause
Why destroy one evil, feed and fos
ter another hatred more harmful tt
Gods children of darker hue?
| If black and white criminals arc
arrested, tried, convicted and sen
to the same prisons on equality anG
association, for the betlerment o
humanity and &C ciety, and the ga.
l1ons welcome on equality all corners
in the name OF God for rights sake
why not the alleged christians joir
heart and hands 10 better the world
jeff Davis declared that the Ne groes
prayers would lose their cause, 81
can the white christians win their
various causes against sins of thei
own making by treating the Negroes
as Gods children and brothers be-
loved.

One Of the most interesting and ex-

Exhibit Of the Coronation Robes to be
Seen at S. Kann 4 Co.'S.
An exact reproduction OF the Royal
Regalia" and she rCoronation Jewels"
worn out By their Nagesties. King
George v, Of England. and Queen Con-
sort Is now on display at S. Kann q
Cos. Two exquisiteiy sculptured and
startling liielike figures Of the king and
queen, in all their royal raiment, are
shown, as we'll as all the accouterments,
and the dias upon which the figures
stand.
Everything is automatically correct to
the smallest particular. Among the
regalia's principal articles Of interest,
are first Of all the crown. The Imperial
crown, which was placed upon the
kings head BY the Archbishop Of
Canterbury, is worth "a kings ransom"
in itself. and contains about 5000 pre-
cious stones, among them three world
famous jewels. The intrinsic value Of
the crown Is given as s2,00o,0o0, Of
which these stones make up goodlv
share. The first in Importance is the
Lesser Star Of Africa" a diamond
weight 800 carats the smaller Of two
great pear shaped stones cut from the
huge "cullinan Diamond; the great
sapphire, said to possess magic powers
of healing disease; and the "Plack
Princes Ruby" one Of the most famous
jewels in the world The Imperial
crown is said to contain all styles of
diamond cutting from the days of
Charles II, Of England, down to the
present time.
The royal sceptre, which the King
holds is jeweled stsff surmount-d by
a maltese cross. aod containing the
larger Of the pear shaped stones fr m
the "Cullnan d amond". This stone is
known as the SCR alter Star of Africa"
and weighs 5l6i earats. Il is so large
that special device was required to
hold it ia place.
Another article Of the rsgslia that
will be greatly admired is the orb.
This is a gold ball, encircled by two
wide cross bands of jewels Il alone is
worth fortune, containing as it does
several hundred great pearls, besides
countless emeralds, rubies, sapphires,
and diamonds.
The royal purple robe trimmed with
ermine. worn by the king, is faithfully
copied, as well as the rest of the Coro-
nation costume. The beautiful cloth Of
gold grown, with decoration of the
jewels Of the Garter" presented to the
queen by the Marys Of the empire, the
long purple train embroidered in gold,
and the Queen Consort's crown. are also
exactly reproduced. Queen Mary, in
her royal robes is ''every inch queen"
as this fac-simile demonstrates.
The crimson dais with its fringe of
gold. makes gorgeous setting for the
two royal personages. and the exhibit
conveys to the mind of the spectator
something OF the magnificence Of the
scene enacted at Westminster Abbey,
which marked another epoch in the
worlds history.

If you see fly walking over the food
and dishes, or lighting on your haby's
face, rem mber that he is messenger
of disease and death, says the July.
Homdh's Home Companion.
The rules for dealing with the fly
nuisance, published by the Merchants
Association of New York, and widely
circulated bJ them, are worth reprinting,
We repeat our suggt stion that an ex-
celIent work for any live woman's cub
would be to reproduce these"rules on
cards and distribute them broadcast.
Keep the flies away from the sick, es-
pecally those i'll with contagious dir
seases. Kill every fly that stays into
the sickroom. His body is covered with
disease germs.
Do not allow decaying material of any
sort to acca mulate on or near your
premises. All refuse which tends in
any way to fermentation, such, as bed
Ding straw paper waste and vegetable
matter should be disposed Of or c vered
with lime or Kerosene.
Screen all fond. Keep all receptacles
for garbage carefully covered and the
cans cleaned or sprinkied with oil or
lime.
Keen all stable manure in vault mr. nit
screened or sprinkled with lime, oil or
other cheap preparation. See that your
sewerage system is in good ardar; that it
does not leak. is up-to date and not
exposed to flies. Pour kerosene intn the
drains.
Cover food after meal; burn or bury
all table refuse. Screen all food fol
sale.
Screen all windows and doors. especJ
ally the kitchen and dining-room.
Burn pyrethrum powder in the house
to kill flies
Don't forget, il you see flies, that
their br eding place is in nearby filth.
1t may be behind the door, under the
table, or in the cuspidor.
II there is no dirt and filth, there win
be no flies.
1t there is nuisance in the neigh
borhot d, il would be advisable to write
at once to the health department.
