Chamberlain S Tablets

Chamberlain Tablets are intended
especially for stomach troubles, bilious
ness and constipation, and have met
with much success in the treatment OF
those diseases. People who have sui
fered for years with stomach trouble
and have been unable to obtain any
permanent relief, have been complete
~ cured by the use of these tablets.
Chamberlain Tablats are also OF great
value for biliousness. Chronic consti-
patton may be permanently cured by
taking Chamberlain Tablets and OBJ
serving the plain printed directions
with each bottle.

TxnicaL Pipes Of the Nations.

The clay pipes used by the natives
of various countries and nationalities
are quite numerous and have their
own individual fashion almost charac-
teristic of each country. The French
clay pipe is gay in color and for few
cents one can buy one decorated with
the carving of animals heads, and 9th
er adornments. The Hungarian clay
pipe has a bowl of clay, and a long
stem of either wood or bamboo.
This pipe is usually large, with a big
bowl, and the average cost is ten
cents.

FIaqmaker,s Art an Exactina One.

The f1aglnaker's art is an exacting
one and many modern descendants of
Betsy Ross are employed by the Brook
Ign flag master. Much skill is re-
CURED to make such a flag as that of
Venezuela, which has a prancing horse
upon it. A special machine has been
designed for cutting the white stars
used in our own flag. These are of
eight sizes, and every year many thou
sands of such stars go into flags made
by government employees. These stars
vary from two inches to fourteen
inches in diameter.

WHY We Say Mcarat.n

The weight used by goldsmiths in
gauging the quality Of gold apart from

that of the seed Of an Abyssinian carat

form in size, were employed in weigh
ing gold and precious stones.

CARDINAL GIBBONS
PRAISES NEGRO

New Orleans.-Cardinal Gibbons of
Baltimore was recently in the city on
his annual visit to his brother, John
Gibbons, one of the leading whole
sale merchants of New Orleans. On
these visits the Cardinal has made it
a rule to take complete rest. This
time, however, he modified the rule
sufficiently to pay visit to Xavier
University, which Mother Katherine
DreXel established here for Colored
people. The Cardinal made an ad-
dress to the school, over which the
faculty and students were overjoyed.-
The visit was an informal one and the
address characteristic.
Despite a slight cold, his eminence.
after saying how edited he was at
the manifest success of Xavier Uni
versity, continued, in clear, distinct
voice:
81 am glad that your respected pas
tor has referred to Booker Washing
ton, the great leader of the Colored
race. 1 had the pleasure Of meeting
him when on one of my trips from
Baltimore to New Orleans. He asked
permission to see me in my private
apartment and, of course, was glad
to tender him an invitation, and we
had long conversation to gether.
Tells of Experience With Colored Peo-
Pile.
81 must modestly say that I did
something to elevate, to uplift, and,
when it was necessary, to uphold the
rights of the Colored race in the city
of Baltimore. l said good word for
them. They have never forgotten
this kindness. In my experience with
the Colored race and in my dealings
with them during nearly fifty years.
have been struck by the fact that
they have three characteristics: First
of all, they are exceedingly grateful,
that is to say, they are always ready
to acknowledge with gratitude any
benefit, and gratitude is one Of the
noblest virtues. Secondly, they are
very affectionate race, a warm
hearted race, their hearts easily ex-
pand. Thirdly, I am happp to say,
that the Colored people the deeply
and naturally religious. There are
some people, some races that can
hardly be aroused to recognize the
christian religion, the religion of
Christ, whereas, the Colored race are
always responsive to it, and I have
yet to see or to hear of the first Col
| ored man who has ever yet proclaim
ed himself an atheist, an unbeliever."

FAKE PREACHERS.

Philadelphia, Pa.-More than fifty
bogus Negro ministers, who have been
mulcting new arrivals from the South
through fake insurance and employ
ment agency schemes, were rounded
up Thursday and Friday by ]. Denny
o'Neil, state insurance commissioner.
when a Negro arrived he was met
by one of these fake preachers and
asked to join bogus church society.
For 10 cents week, or whatever they
could get out of the victim, they prom
ised to insure their lives and also
promised to find employment for him.
"In many instances the preachers
were collecting so cents and 81 a
week from the victims. For the pur-
pose of joining fake beneficial socie-
ties, hundreds of the Negroes gave 50,
which went into the pockets of the
preachers" These men who have
been operating employment agencies
without a license will also be prose-
cuted."
