"Kfjual in size to the statue of Lib-

en eternal memorial to a race that Is
fast passing away, and no more prom-
inent place could be found for erect-
ing this splendid tribute to a great
race than I he gateway to the now

"So big Is the project that It will of
course take shape slowly. I made the
suggestion to sec how the country felt
about the Indian and 1 shall do noth-

tion's sentiment Is concerning the red

BOY'S GRATITUDE WAS REAL
Haa Long Cared for Grave of Man
Who Had Been Kind to Him
Many Years Ago.
Ttev. .John Henri SattlK, pnator of
?>(. Philip's church, Hvker Heights,
Brooklyn, tells this beautiful story:
"In Milford, Pa., there is an old
graveyard, neglected, weed grown and
I iiikemp' (if all the mounds in that
i village of the dead only one is cared
for. On that the grass Is neatly
j trimmed, flowers bloom and ne\er a
weed appears. The visitor who looks
upon this evidence of love and devo-
tion amid no many examples of for-
getfulness usually asks whose grave
it Is, and the sexton answers: 'Tho
I man whose budy rests there had
j neither chick nor child. Nearly every
day for the six years since the man
died a buy comes here to 'tend to the
grave. Winter and summer he comes.
! The lad is the butcher boy. The man
was the only human being who ever
was kind to the boy.'"

Prominent Women Aid Good Cause.
A large number of women occupy-
ing prominent positions In society, or
on the stage, are taking an active In-
terest In the anti-tuberculosis cam-
paign. Mrs. W. K. Vanderbllt has re-
cently given $1,000,000 for sanitary
homes for consumptives. Mrs. Keith
Spalding of Chicago has erected a
sanitarium for the Chicago Tuberculo-
sis Institute at a cost of about $.")0,-
000; ilrs. Col 11s P. Huntington and
Mrs Morden Harriman have given
largely to the consumption flgnt. In
Porto Kico, Mrs. Albert Norton Wood,
wife of a prominent army officer sta-
tioned nt San Juan, has stirred the en-
tire island through th< antitubercu-
losis crusade she Inaugurated. Mm*.
Kinma Calve is a most enthusiastic
worker, tnd lias given largely of her
talent and money for the relief of
tuberculosis sufferers, and Miss Olga
Nethersole has even lectured before
the public on tuberculoids.
An Unconscious Tribute.
When his business had yielded such
profits that he began to tak< life more
easily and think of retiring, Mr. Hold-
en endeavored to throw some good
things In the way of a younger firm.
"How about letting l-lobbs & Rawson
have your next consignment of canned
novelties?" he suggested to one of the
manufacturers. "They are hard-work-
ing gentlemanly young fellows "
"That's Just the trouble," said the
manufacturer, with a decided shake of
his head. "I'm no gentleman myself,
and I don't propose to mix up nor have
any business dealin's with gentlemen.
"I'll consign m.v goods to you same
as I've alway done, and you can do as
you like with 'em."—Youth's Com-
o&nion.
Well. What If He Didn't?
For many years Iir Francis L. Pat-
ton. ex president of Princeton univer-
sity, wore side whiskers Whenever
he suggested shaving tlieiu there was
a division of opinion in the family.
One morning he came Into bis wife's
room, razor in hand, with his right
cheek shaved smooth
"How do you like it my dear?" he
asked. "If you think it looks well, 1
will shave the other side, too."—

Found a Cure in Cuticura.
"Our son, fwo y< irn old, was afflicted
with a rash. Aft r h • Buffered with
tlio trouble several weeks I took him
to the doctor but it got wore, The
r.T h ran together and made large
blisters. The little fellow didn't want
to do anything hut scratch and we hud
to wrap hia hands up to keep him
from tearing tho flesh open till the
blood would run. The Itching was in-
tense. Tho skin on his back became
hard and rough liko the bark of a
tree. He suffered intensely for about
three months. Hut 1 found a remedy
in Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Oint-
ment. The result was almost mag-
ical. That was more than two years
ago and there has not been the slight-
est symptom of It since he was cured.

MAKING SUNSHINE
It Is Often Found in Pure Food.
The improper selection of food
drives many a healthy person into the
depths of despairing illness. Indeed,
much sickness comes l'rotn wrong food
and Just so surely as that is the case
right food will make the sun shine
once more.
An old veteran of Newburyport,
Mass , says: "In (><^>ber, i was taken
sick and went to bed, losing IT pounds
in about (SO days. I had doctor after
doctor, food hurt me and l had to live
almost entirely on magnesia and soda
All solid food distressed me so that
water would run out ot my mouth in
little streams.
"I had terrible night sweats, and my
dot tor 1'nially said I h id consumption
and must, die. M\ good wife gave up
all hope. We were at. Old Orchard,
Me., at that time and my wife saw
(irape Nuts In a grocery there. She
bought some and persuaded me to
try It.
"I bad no faith in it, but took It to
please her. To my surprise it did not
distress me as all other food had done
and before I had taken the tilth pack-
age | \\:>h well on the mend The pains
ieli my head, my mind became clearer
and I gained weight rapidly.
I weiil back to my work again and
now alter six weeks' use of the food
I am better and stronger than ever be-
fore in my life. (Snipe-Nuts surely
saved my life and made me a strong
hearty man !'• pounds heavier than
before I was taken III.

Couldn't Stand It.
A Raleigh, N C„ woman not long
ago received Into her house for "train-
ing'' a "cracker" girl from tho moun-
tains.
Hndeavor was made to Inculcate In
the nirl a love for order and cleanli-
ness, but suddenly this discipline
ceil ed, for the "poor white" fled to
her home In the fastnesses, Thither
the Raleigh woman traced her alter
come difficulty.
'Why dkl you leave me, Mary
Jane'.'" she asked.
"Mis' Morgan, I Jos' couldn't stay!"
exclaimed the girl. "1 was jcV cloyed
with ueatuuss!"
Obedience.
Prompt and unquestioning obedi-
ence Is the corner stone of the foun-
dation of sin < es In life No n n can
ghe orders properly who has not
learned to take them, and "save he
serve, no man may rule." It will be
found that tho men who have won
their way to positions of power and
responsibility have Invariably been
the men who did not reason or argue
or even "respectfully represent," but
who promptly did as they were com-
manded without questioning. It Is
the large man, not the little mnn, who
recognizes u superior authority.
Laundry work at home would be
much more satisfactory if the right
Starch were used. In order to get the
desired stiffness, It is usually neces-
sary to use so much starch that the
beauty and fineness of the fabric Is
hidden behind a paste of varying
thickness, which not only destroys the
appearance, but also affects the wear-
ing quality ol' the goods. This trou-
ble can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as It can be applied
much more thinly because of Its great-
er strength than other makes.
To Check Spread cf Trichoma.
It has been reported that, the dis-
ease known as trachoma, or granular
eyelids, has been spreading rapidly
among the Indians. To check this
trouble congress appropriated $ 12,000,
placing It In the hands of the commis-
sioner of Indian affairs, for the imme-
diate investigation and treatment of
the disease and to check its spread.
