that the army has a strong influence
with the laboring classes, and that
the acceptance of its tenets precludes
the likelihood of affiliation with the So
cialists and anarchists. Belief in a

ing too great Importance to this life,
and the more Salvation Army men,
bers there are in Russia the fewer the

the matter is put by leading St

The army was banned from st. Pc
tersburg despite assurances given by
M. Stolypin to Gen. Booth, when the
latter was here a year ago, that the
organization would be welcome. The
order. driving the Salvation Army from
Russia was based on the allegation

YORK STATE G. o. p.
CONSERVATIVE

New York, Feb. 27.-William
Barnes, Jr, of Albany, chairman of
the New York State Republican Com
mittee, who has been having a brief
vacation in Cuba, is expected to re-
turn tomorrow, when plans for the
Republican state convention will be
worked out. The convention will be
held April in Rochester, and, ac-
cording to local leaders, the conserva-
tive wing of the party will be in COM
plete control, although it is expected
that the Roosevelt forces will make a
demonstration.
DR.. Nicholas Murray Butler presi-
dent of Columbia, and DIR. Jacob Gould
Schurman, president of Cornell, are
said to have been given the job of
drafting a platform. That it will be
ultra conservative, with not a trace
of the radical planks advocated by
western insurgents unless by way OF
denunciation, is assured. 1t has even
been intimated that a plank may be
included demanding the repeal of the
Sherman antitrust law as injurious tc
business interests, but it is not likely
that the conservatives will risk ad
verse public opinion so far as that.
| Unless there is a great change II
sentiment between now and April 8
the Rochester platform will represen
in its entirety the conservative com
mercial and financial interests of the
Empire State. The delegation choser
by the convention to go to the nation
al gathering in Chicago will offer the
New York State platform as a mode
to be followed and will urge return
to "old time Republicanism."

As health talks to women become
more general, both in the newspapers
and on the platform, the mass of women
cultivated have always known, that
good health cannot be found in powder

obtained in that way, but the basis of
health lies deeper, and yet is just as
easily obtained.
The most important thing that a
woman can do for herself, and about
which she is often most neglectful, is
to watch the condition of her stomach
and bowels. The weary eyes, the bad
