PASSING OF THE SHAKERS.

The Shakers first established them
selves in this country just before the
Revolutionary war, and have kept their
organization more or less intact since
that time, in spite of the fact that the
fundamental basis of their organization
offered nothing to promise prolonged
existence OF the sect.
The Shakers We're the followers of
Mother Ann Lee. They believed that
she was the feminine counterpart of
Jesus Christ. She died in 1884 and the
society was reorganized on a COmmu-
nistic basis. Celibacy, non-resistance
and equality for women are the simple
tenets of the Shaker creed. Their af-
fairs are managed by groups. the au
thority being vested in two men and
two women chosen by the colony. All
of their religious and business affairs
are discussed i'm open meeting. They
do not worship Christ nor Ann Lee, but
the highest good wherever it may be
found. The Shakers had membership
of 1000 in 1887, but their numbers de-
creased to 1000 in 1902. and it appears
now that they are on the point of dis
solution.
In the years following the American
Revolution more than score Of COM
munistic sects and colonies wer@ estab-
lished in the United States. Some Of
them appealed TO the sensualities and
some of them were plain swindles. The
Shakers held out no sensual or financial
allurements and it is surprising that
they have endured 50 long. except on
the theory that their simplicity in llv-
ing attracted recruits, and made them
the sole survivors of all these social
experiments in the history of any

Bishop Canevin Of the Roman Cath

Bishop Canevin Of the Roman Cath
Ole diocese of Pittsburg has inter-
posed his ecclesiastical authority and
vetoed an exceptional act of folly. A
picnic for the benefit of a local char
ity had been projected and a young
woman, who is described as one Of
Pittsburg's "prettiest and wealthiest
society bellies" consented to be raf-
fled off as a bride and to marry the
fortunate or otherwise holder of the
winning ticket. The tickets were sold
at 10 cents each, and were taken rap
idly before the episcopal ban was
placed upon the rattle. There are
many strange "doings" in the mill
ionaire city, but this latest folly
breaks the record.

recall the meeting, years previously.
between him and the famous artist,
Luke Fildes, who had then just been
created a knight. In the course of
conversation. Sir Luke reminded Gill
bert that his dairymaid. Patience. had
been made up exactly to resemble the
subject Of Fildes' picture, Where Are
You Going to, My Pretty Maid?"

borrowing the idea for the costume
from your painting. but l repaid the
debt by originally recommending you
TO his majesty's notice for advance

to quote the following lines from

FOR GREAT HEART OF MEN.
A Marker of Ball Scores Has the
Throng's Eager Interest.

We emerge upon Park Row, with all
its roaring tides, Vociferant with every
form of noise that has ever assaulted
the human ear, populous with every
king of jostling and jostled human be-
ing; at once cruel ana pathetic IN the
feverish energy of its haste, as is ever
any human swarm. You have seen the
bees in "A hive. tumbling and tumb-
ling over one another in apparently
meaningless melee of downy bodies
and struggling legs, writes Richard
La Gallienne in Harper's Magazine.
There seems to be no method IN all
this unorganiZed mass of angry, be
wildered creatures; and yet today they
are making honey The human swarm
seems equally meaningless, as we
come upon it in such passionate a
storm center of home-hurrying feet
as Brooklyn bridge. Bees in hiNe'
bees in a hive! There seems no
method in all this unOrganized mass
Of angry. bewildered creatures, and
yet they are making money. .
Before we proceed farther up town
my friend and l pause moment to
join Il crowd of drawn faces eagerly
reading the baseball returns, now be-
ing written by n distinguished per-
former on the blackboard of one OF
the newspaper bulletins.
My friend turns to me and says;
wouldn't it be good TO be as much
in earnest about anything in the world
as these boys-and old men, for that
matter-about baseball?'
The reason, of course. is easy. l
answered. Man loves his play and
hates his work. His play is really
his one serious object. He only
works that some day he may play,
and if he can play without work, all
the better"
AS 1 speak a great longing has
come over me to be the man up there
with the chalk, writing with so fine
n. hand upon the blackboard. SO l
suppose we have all boyishly longed
to drive an automobile, or even a
motor car-somehow or other to be
public character 1t is one of the
disadvantages of being grown up
that one cannot go and ask that great
man writing up there with that beau
tiful chalk to allow one to take his
chalk and write his baseball returns
for him for a few minutes. So one
could feel a boy again and do some
writing that, as Stevenson says
touches the great heart of men.

From now on it may be expected
n concerted attack upon the presi-

the militant leaders of insurgent re-

correspondent. We have not hereto
fore observed that the militant lead
ers of the insurgent republicans were
refraining from an attack upon the
president. but a concerted movement
by only a half dozen senators is not
likely to create much stir either in
the senate or the White House.

The clay pipe also has become a
noted national product of the United
States. The largest clay pipe factory
in the world is in Appomattox County,
Virginia. More than half a century
ago it was known that the clay found
there was particularly adapted to the
manufacture of tobacco pipes, but it
was not until the end of the Civil War
that they began to make them in any
quantity. The first that were sent
North found ready sale at five cents
each and then Northern capitalist,
who was a confirmed pipe smoker, dis
covered that the clay pipes from Vir-
ginia were better than those from any
where else. He. traced down shipment
and found that it came from the clay
beds of Appomattox County. He

and put up a big factory, which has
been increasing in size ever since.
An increasing number of little brier
pipes that will hold only enough tobac-
co for three or four whiffs, are to be
found in the most fashionable tobac-
conists' shops in the larger cities.
These are ladies pipes They are not
50 labeled, but it is the ladies who buy
them. Sometimes they are easing off
from the cigarette to the pipe under
the doctors orders, and sometimes
they really like to smoke the pipe bel-
ter than anything else. They retail at
81 apiece There is really nothing re-
markable about women smoking pipes.
1t used to be quite the customary thing
in the days Of our grandmothers.

SHOOTING UP The DOGS

MouItrie, Ga, May 16.-The old say
ing, Love me, love my dog" has been
exempliied strikingly in this city re-
Gently. Ia dog upon the streets gave
every indication of suffering with ra-
bies and was killed by the police. Its
head was sent to DR.. Harris in At
lanta, who after an examination, pro-
nounced it as having hydrOphobia.
City council in special session, re,
quired that all dogs be kept off the
streets until July /, and issued iu-
structions to the police to kill dogs rum
nings at large.
Several We're killed and then the
dog lovers got busy. They consulted
a lawyer and he filed a bill in the Su-
perior court, asking an injunction
against the city, alleging that the or
dinance was unconstitutional upon the
grounds that it deprived them of their
property without due process of law
and that the ordinance was void be-
cause it had not been passed as pre-
scribed in the charter of the city.
Judge Thomas granted a rule nisi
against the city and it will be heard
next Wednesday at Valdosta.

TO AHlNG WOMEN.
A Little Sound Advice VIII Help Many
o Sufferer In Americas.

No woman can be healthy and well
If the kidneys are sick. Poisons that
pass off in the secretions when the
kidneys are well are retained in the
body when the kidneys are sick. Kid
neys and bladder become inflamed and
swollen and worse troubles quickly
follow. This is often the true cause
of bearing down pains, lameness, back
ache, sideache, etc. Uric acid poison
ing also causes headaches, dizzy spells,
languor, nervousness and Rheumatic
pain.
When suffering so, try Doan's Kid
ney Pills, a remedy that cures sick
kidneys. You will get better as the
kidneys get better, and health will
return when the kidneys are well. Let
an Americas woman tell about Doan's
Kidney Pills.
Mrs. Allie L. Cobb, 2O5 Mayo ST.,
Amer:cus Ga, says:
II suffered from kidney trouble for
several years. l was subject to at
tacks of pain in the small of my back
and at times l had headaches and felt
dull and languid. Some time ago I
was advised to try Doan's Kidney
Pills and l procured box at Dod-
sons Pharmacy. Since using them /

BAD DREAMS.
Nightmare, ReslessnesS and Night
sweatS all Caused by Indigestion.


Half of the nervousness in the world,
all of the disturbing dreams and night
mares can be ended in a few weeks by
simple, inexpensive treatment guar
anteed by Dodson's Pharmacy.
Upset stomach is the cause of nerv-
BUSINESS and bad dreams. Your food is
lying in your stomach undigested and
fermentlng; it is forming poisonious
gases which irritates the pheumogas-
trio nerve which leads direct from the
brain, and ends in a network of tiny
branches running through the stom-
ach.
1t is also the irritation of this great
pheumogastric nerve that causes head
aches and know they are caused by
the stomach, but do not know how.
If you are nervous, have dreams or
nightmare, and do not sleep sound at
night, get so cent box of MI-O-NA
stomach tablets and take one or two
after or with meals. MI-O-NA tablets
relieve distressed stomach in 5 min

this SEASONS DRESSES
HAVE new FEATURES
Number Of Changes in Fash
iOnabIe Forms

New York, May 16.-Possibly be-
cause the picturesque note is so urg-
emily insisted upon, the fashions of to-
day are more becoming than they have
been for a long time, always allowing
a mental reservation, of course, in the
case of those foolish skirts of exagger-
ated tightness. which are sin to lie
seen occasionally, alas! for the com
fort and the common sense of those
who wear them. This weak point
apart, however, there is much that is
very fascinating in the mode of the
moment.
There are certain indications, too,
which augur well for the fashions of
the immediate future, more especially
as regards the gowns for afternoon
and evening wear.
Touches of dark fur, for example,
are to be seen not only on frocks for
street wear, but also on dance and din
ner dresses which are made in the
most gossamer-iike fabrics, such as
tulle and chiffon, fine soft net and
mousseline de sole. Skunk is the
favorite fur for trimmings of this
kind, and its rich brown color makes
very effective contrast with the pale
shades of blue and pink, mauve and
lfly-leaf green, which are to be seen
in those long tunics of union de sole
over bright satin, so much worn at the
moment, and again in those new bro
cades which are woven with a texture
as soft as the finest crepe de Chine.
These quaint borderings of fur are TO
be seen in many old-world portraits
and, in spite, or perhaps because, of
their incongruity, they certainly give
an Undesirable charm to the modern
gowns which they adorn.
Then, again, the new embroideries
are of the most decorative description,
worked as they frequently are in silks
of rich coloring, on a background of
metallic tissue, old gold or oxidized
silver for choice, and further beautif1ed
with jeweling carried out in many
bright clear stones, which are quite
wonderful In their close resemblance
to real gems. In the case of certain of
the newest evening gowns, these jew
eled embroideries are arranged with a
hand which is almost too lavish, and it
is an open question whether the show
ers of diamonds, sapphires and emer-
aids are not really more effective when
they are used in less profusion and
with more discretion.
In many cases, of course, their
over-yivid brightness is very judicious-
| ly toned down by the softening drap-
cries of chiffon, which are used to veil
! lightly the brilliance of these gorgeous
ly embroidered garments. The same
results are arrived at with an equally
picturesque effect, in the case of those
brightly tinted laces in gold and silver.
1t is only natural that while these
picturesque styles prevail, the vogue
for velvet should show no signs of
diminishing popularity, since it is of
all fabrics the one which lends itself
most amiably to graceful draping and
artistic effects generally.
