LIBEL REVIVED.

Rex Ellingwood Beach, Chicago's
,uthor and playwright, was talking
the other day at the Chicago Athletic
Tub about the cities of America.
"Philadelphia," he said, sis cele-
grated for its homes. Los Angeles
for its climate, New York for its

"No, no." said Mr.. Beach, with a
augh. "Fhat libel is dead. 1t has

Cardui is purely vegetable and gentle
acting. Its ingredients have a mild, tonic
effect, on the womanly constitution.
Cardui makes for increased strength,
improves the appetite, tones up the ner-
yous system, and helps TO make pale,
salIow cheeks, fresh and rosy.
Cardui has helped more than a million
weak women, during the past 90 years.
It will surely do for you. what it has
done for them. Try Cardui today.

CUTTING OF THE KHALIG
interesting Egyptian Custom Which Is
Celebrated on Opening Dams
Of Canal.

One Of the most interesting Of
Egyptian customs is that known n
he Cutting Of the Khalig," which
S celebrated on the occasion Of the
opening Of the dams of the Khalig
anal, thereby causing the flooding
II the land for cultivation purposes.
The ceremony takes place in August,
when the Nile reaches it's highest
cyel, and is really a thanksgiving
,%crvice. According TO tradition, the
rld-time Egyptians had a custom Of
asting a young virgin, gaily dressed,
INTO the river as a sacrifice to the
yods; but at the present time the
1ffering takes the more humane form
# a dummy. A procession OF decor
,ted boats and barges passes along
the river, one special craft being
lscd for the ceremony. This boat,
rigged to represent an old-time war;
chip, is towed by a decorated tug,
and is well provided with musicians,
who play Arab tunes, while minute
guns are fired at intervals in honor
II the occasion.-Wide World Maya,

praise for the splendid work they have
done through the medium of the Mis-
sion Circle in contributing to the un-
fortunate members and friends of the
church, The Sewing Circle of the A..
M. E. church is doing excellent work
toward raising means for improve
ments and incidental expenses. We
conclude that it is highly discreditable
to the men in some churches that they
are so eager to lay upon the women of
the church, work which should be
done by themselves.

Although governors of southern
states sem kilograms of sympathy TO
Mrs. Booker T. Washington upon the
death of her distinguished husband
and messages even came from across
the sea. And although every big daily
newspaper in the country gave editor
lal expression of the great loss which
n whole country sustained in the de-
mise of the great leader and educator
yet President Wilson sent not a line of
coincidence nor has he given out any
statement of regret or sympathy.
we are anxious to know Just how
this sets with the so-called Negro
democrats Of the country and our col
uinns are open for their explanation.
1t looks to us like a fine of
narrowness upon the part of the pres
ldent and a concrete example of that
studied contempt which he has shown
to the ten millions of American black
cltlzens ever since he was inaugur-
ated as executive head of the Republic
There might be some reason. for
such prejudice as would withhold his
approval of Negro of~fice-holders and
prevent his interference in the ugly
segrating policies of his rabid cabinet
members. But mi the face of such an
nntimely taking away of a force so
potent In general moral and education
! uplift as was manifested in the life.
OF DIR. Washington, it is difficult to
even imagine how even prejudice could
go to such an extreme.
The Negro democrats. though, win
condone this public insult just as they
have condoned all others and viii go
on whooping it up for the party OF Jeff
Davis. Ben Tillman and Vardeman.
