 Sundry anthologies have given emphasis to the author Indiana product, and the record is fairly complete There are few Americans who have not had opportunity to be nfOrmer to the states remarkable product
 I is proposed that this unique position in American accomplishment be given exploitation through pageantry and parade and special celebrations com merciazing of the inspiration that has animated the Indiana pen, and a proceeding not ndorsed by those who have brought such credit to the state
 Indeed. pageantry is necessary for Indiana authors they speak for themselves through their pro- duct. The 1500O volumes of native genius are exhibit in any presentation of the states resources. No brass bands parades are needed When Indana's name is mentioned is not thoughts of hogs or packing houses that invoked, but the states chief product-authofs.

GOOD WORK
 FOR SICK WOMEN
The Woman's Medicine Has
 Proved Its Worth.

When Lydia E. Pinkham's remedies were first introduced, their curative powers were doubted and had to be proved. But the proof came, and grad ually the use of them spread over the whole country. Now that hundreds of thousands of women have experienced the most beneficial effects from the use of these medicines; their value has be- come generally recognized, and Lydia E. Pinkham's. Vegetable Compound is the standard medicine for women.
 The following letter is only one of the thousands on file in the Pinkham office, at Lynn, Mass, proving that Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pound is an article of great merit as shown by the results it produces.
 Anamosa, Iowa. When I began talk ing Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Con- pound I suffered with displacement, and my system was in general run- down condition. Iwould have the head ache for a week and my back would ache SO bad when l would bend down could hardly straighten up. My sister was sick in bed for two months and doctored, but did not get any relief. She saw an advertisement of your med cine and tried it and got better. She told me what it had done for her, and when I had taken only two bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com pound my head began to feel better. I continued it's use and now I don't have any of those troubles" - Mrs. l.. j. HANNAN, RED. l, Anamosa, Iowa. s~,

FIRST Y.M. {. A. LUNCH
 COUNTER NEGROES IDEA
George Arnold, Train Porter, Started Business That Has Grown in
 Popularity.

The first lunch counter ever placed in Y. M. c. A. building is found to have been the one sin the Madison street building in Chicago. devoted to a railway association, and the man to originate it was a negru. sIhc story of the genesis of rhis nov i'm : portant adjunct to railway 'lssociation plants is told in this wise by n. g:li- sicag0 railway man: Y @'f'a '.It was in 1891 one day.Swhen the regular fjantpr of the building was laid off on account of illness. and to take his place George Arnold, an ex- tra porter oh trains, was secured. Arnold easily perfornied the work. and soon realized an opehipg, for I handy lunch room and kHchenette.
 "securing permission ffohmrs the ssec- retary and other authorities, he quick ly extemporiEed the lunch room and began selling good coffee at three cents per cup, and luncheon edibles at the same proportion. His venture took like wildfire and rapidly he built up good business for the associa- ton. for, be it remembered, all reve- nues went into the association till, just as the lodging, fees of the lay over railway trainmen. It was re- ported the. daily receipts often ran up from $6O to $70.
 George Arnold was dignified waiter, dressed in his white clothing and cap," states the railroad man, 4and he believed in decorum. Some of the patrons were inclined to poke fun at him, and he promptly decided tn turn the tables, so one day jok- CT. on receiving his lunch check, found an item of two cents written thereon, and which was explained, upon question, as a fine for miscon- duct
 "Toiay the lunch room and the cafetria," declared the railroad man, "is a recognized department 'of value in all large and important Y. M. c. A. buildings. and George Ar mold, the negro train porter in Chicago railroad Y. M. c. A.. Is ac- credited with being the first pie neer.'"

HRApsrREET,s REVIEW

z NEW YORK, June 2-Bradstreet's tomorrow will say: Feverish buying
 has subsided, but in it's place has come a steady. more orderly and yet very large volume of business, and the virtual arrival of the between-seasons period sees trade as we'll as industry moving along at rate far above the seasonal normal Neither the reduced
 domestic buying of steel nor the weakness of southern pig iron, old material and such metals as copper, lead, tin and antimony loom large in another otherwise strong situation. Optimism, though tempered by high prices is not one with less marked than it was at the height of the boom, the plain fact being that the country is sold up, and therefore cannot af- ford to sit back for a breathing spell
 Industry is working at an unwantoned pacing diminished new buying of do- mestic steel is offset by foreign de- mand the old story of labor con- manding high wages is more applic- able than ever, and warm weather has improved retail trade as we'll as croI conditions.

SOLDIERS NOW HAVE
 BETTER EQUIPMENT

An interesting letter was received here yesterday from R. w. Baker, clerk of Company "D" He reports that the boys are all well and hearty and speaks with enthusiasm of the mastering into the Federal service The following extracts from his let ter are of interest as showing the general attitude of the Company to- ward the service in which they are engaged
 Saturday, the 27th day of May, Co. D was mustered into the service of the United States. The ceremony was . very impressive The company raised their right hands in the air, while the oath was read swearing loyalty to the president of the United States the officers. We were marched through the streets of the camp, led by the First infantry band which | gave us thrill we will never forget. | We are now full fledged American soldiers until discharged by the presi- dent of the United States Every man was examined physically by the fed eral authorities. This examination
 was very rigid; every mans weak points were made note of for future reference
 The government will issue us our i new clothing at the end of this | week. Two complete changes will be
 given each man.; including shoes, un-
 derwear, socks, hats, etc. We have l been almost ragged up to this time as the clothing issued by the state is very deficient
 The cots issued are the famous
 Helen Gould cots. She has arranged
 it so each man in the service is given a cot to sleep on, which is
 quite an act of charity. We have slept on the ground for such long
 time that bed to be on will be ;
 rare treat In time we will hav' l comfortable quarters and this caml ; life will not be so bad. We owe ;
 great deal to the Mesa people, as b. :, their contribution to us, we have fix , ] ed up our kitchen, built tables ant

THE ROSARY"

The play that has been long await ed in Tempe, "The Rosary a seven reel Red Seal drama, will be pre-
 sented at two shows tonight at the
 Tempean theater. The photoplay is
 adapted from the famous work by
 Edward s. Rose and is one of the
 best productions ever made by Colin Campbell, the man who directed such wonderful pictures as ''The Spoilers, and The Carpet from Bagdad." It
 revolves upon the highly dramatic theme which is so well known to the playgoing and novel reading public
 and is presented in such an artistic manner that all who see it, are cer- tain to marvel at it's beauty. The picture is considered one of the best that the Tempean will have shown in several months.
