Is the Of?ly Oije Nov Living,
The passing of Mrs. William Mc
Kinley appreciably depleted the list of
surviving White House ladies, to the
point that they have become almost
as few as living ex-presidents—and of
this latter there is only one. While
Mrs. McKinley, by reason of the con
tinuing illness which had for many
years beset her, could scarcely be
looked upon as an active figure in
social life at the executive mansion,
her influence on the American nation,
through the thoroughly sympathetic
relations she enjoyed with her hus
band, was not slight.
There have, in the course of our
comparatively very brief history, been
gay White Houses and quiet White
Houses. To the latter class belong
the administrations of William Me
Martha Washington.
Kinley and Theodore Roosevelt and of
some earlier executives. Of the for
mer, Dolly Madison is generally
looked upon as the most notable ex
ample, with the period of Grover
Cleveland's occupancy of the throne
as a close second by reason of the
great public interest which attended
his marriage with Miss Frances Fol
som.
The Roosevelt Regime.
Certainly, of recent years, the
Cleveland regime must stand out as
the most socially important, in any
consideration of the acuities of the
ladies of the White House. Mrs. Mc
Kinley, practically an invalid, had not
the strength necessary to the prosecu
tion of a vigorous social campaign.
Mrs. Roosevelt has not the inclination.
She has been ever a retiring woman,
content with her family and her home
life, caring nothing at all for the pomp
and circumstance that go with high
office.
Whatever gaiety of the sort Wash
ington expects from the executive
family has been, in the main, due to
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, formerly
Alice Roosevelt. That young woman
enjoyed a national popularity which j
few ladies of the White House have I
ever exceeded.
An Everyday Heroine.
Lucretia Rudolph Garfield was es
sentially a homebody. She had been
a school teacher in Ohio before she
and James A. Garfield were married.
She took no highfalutin notions to
Washington, when she went there as
the first lady in the land. She was a
farmer's daughter, and her ways were
plain. The Hon. A. M. Pratt, of Bayou,
O., telling of the lives and loves of the
Garfields some years ago, said:
“Mrs. Garfield sought and taught
scholars in painting and drawing in
my, then very insignificant, village.
She did not get very large classes and
lived in my house, the guest and i
friend of my then wife. The future 1
president was frequently* entertained
at my table; he a young, strong, great- !
hearted, large-headed youth, but' two j
years from college, hopeful, full of life
and push; she graceful, sweet, ami
able, retiring, with a disposition as
lovely as a star-lit sky—both poor, i
Their fortune was their youth, health. j
hearts, intellects, hope and, glad am I
to say, love.*’
Mrs. Garfield before her elevation, ■
was very often compelled to do much
of her own housework. Ten years be
fore she went into the White House
she wrote her husband, from their
J farm home, a letter which shows the
* lines of her character, and which, in
part, is as follows:
“I am glad to tell that out of all the
toil and disappointments of the sum
mer just ended I have risen up to a
victory; that silence of thought since
you have been away has won for my
spirit a triumph. I read something
like this the other day: ‘There is no
healthy thought, without ' labor, and
thought makes the laborer happy.’
Perhaps this is the way I have been
able to climb up higher. It came to
me one morning when I was making
bread. I said to myself, ‘Here I am,
compelled by an inevitable necessity
to make our bread this summer. Why
not consider it a pleasant occupation
and make it so by trying to see what
perfect bread I can make?’
“It seemed like an inspiration, and
the whole of life grew brighter. The
very sunshine seemed flowing down
through my spirit into the white
loaves, and now I believe my table is
furnished with 'better bread than ever
before; and this truth, old as creation,
seems just now to have become wholly
mine—that I need not be the shrink
ing slave of toil, but its regal mis
tress. making whatever I do yield me
lts best fruits. You have been king of
your work so long that maybe you
laugh at me for having lived so long
without my crown, but I am too glad
to have found it at all to be entirely
discontented, even by your merri
ment."
Mary Lincoln’s Ambitions.
Mary Todd Lincoln, wife of the
other American president 1o meet
death by assassination, held from
early youth the ambition to marry
a man who should rule the nation.
She picked out as her choice Abra
ham Lincoln, and this at a time
when her selection seemed to have
little of recommendation in it. She
refused the offer of marriage of
Stephen A. Douglas, and wedded the
man she was sure was to go to Wash
ington as the chief of America. She
realized her ambition and went to the
capital, holding her first reception
Dolly Madison.
March 9, 1S61. This is how an old
timor recalls that occasion:
“Mrs. Lincoln stood a few paces
from her husband, assisted by her
sisters. Mrs. Edwards and Mrs. Ba
ker, together with two of her nieces,
and was attired in a rich pink moire
antique. pearl ornaments an(J flowers
in her hair and hands. She is a
pleasant looking, elegantly appearing
lady of perhaps 40, somewhat inclined
to stoutness, but. withal, fine looking
and self-possessed."
It was the proudest day of Mrs.
Lincolms life. Laura C. Holloway, in
speaking of the influence of Mrs. Lin
coln of official America, is inclined to
the belief that much of unfortunate
effect was due to Mrs. Lincoln's lack
of tact.
Plucky Dolly Madison.
Of a happier tone was the White
House experience of Dorothy Payne
Madison, wife of the president of
that name. Her family came from
Virginia, and she, herself, despite the
fact of her North Carolina birth, al
ways took pride in referring to her
self as a daughter of the Old Do
minion. When her family removed to
Philadelphia and joined the Quaker
sect, Mistress E»orothy was brought
up in that severe doctrine. She mar
ried, very young. John Todd, a Phila
delphia lawyer, and was a widow at
22. Her second marriage—to the
then Congressman Madison—took
place less than a year after the death
of Mr. Todd.
Mrs. Madison's disposition was of
the sunniest. She proved an inval
uable ally when her husband was
elected president and moved to W ash
ington. At that early day of our his
tory, Washington was little less than
a wilderness. Steamboats were just
coming in, railroads were unknown.
Five hundred mile trips on horse
back were frequently taken, even by
women. The times were rough. Mrs.
Madison, however, with the softening
influences which were hers from
i birth, made of the president's home
a court of politeness, fashion and
charm. She made for her husband
friends by the hundred and was never
happier than when presiding at the
parlor cabinet. That was her history
for awhile—the mainspring in the
scheme of happiness. Then came the
darker side of things, wars and
rumors of wars, the bayonets of the
British gleaming in the Washington
sunshine—and American officials in
danger of sudden death. Just how
the volatile lady bore herself under
these changed conditions is well
shown in a letter she wrote to her
sister at Mount Vernon:
"Tuesday, August 23, 1814.
‘‘Dear Sister—My husband left me
yesterday morning to join Gen.
Winder. He inquired anxiougly
whether I had courage or firmness
to remain in the president's house
until his return on the morrow or
succeeding day, and on my assur
ance that I had no fear but for him,
and the success of our army, he left
me, beseeching me to take care of
myself, and of the cabinet papers,
public and private. I have since re
ceived two dispatches from him, writ
ten with pencil; the last is alarming,
because he desires that I should be
ready at a moment's warning to en
ter my carriage and leave the city;
that the enemy seemed stronger than
had been reported, ar.d that it might
happeir they would reach the city,
with intention to destroy it.
“1 am accordingly ready; I have
pressed as many cabinet papers into
trunks as to fill one carriage; our
private property must be sacrificed,
as it is impossible to secure wagons
for its transportation. I am deter
mined not to go myself until I see
Mr. Madison safe and he can accom
pany me—as I hear o£ much hostility
towards him. Disaffection stalks
around us. My friends and acquaint
ances are all gone, even Col. C., with
his hundred men, who were stationed
as a guard in this inclosure. French
John (a faithful domestic) with his
usual activity and resolution, offers
to spike the cannon at the gate and
lay a train of powder which would
blow up the British should they enter
the house. To the last proposition I
positively object, without being able,
however, to make him understand
why all advantages in war may not
be taken."
Rachel Jackson’s Sad History.
A very sad history was that of
Rachel, wife of President Andrew
Jackson. Early in life she had con
tracted a marriage which had result
ed unfortunately, and, on a divorce
being granted—or. as was thought at
the time, granted—she married An
drew Jackson. The repetition of the
report that this marriage took place
before a divorce had positively separ
ated the woman from her first hus
band, Robards. so worked upon Mrs.
Jackson as to aggravate a heart affec
tion which had given her much
trouble.
The fact that a second ceremony
positively united Jackson and the
daughter of Col. John Donelson, was
ignored in the gossip attendant upon
the lives of the parties, and in the
campaign for the presidency made by
Rachel Jackson.
Jackson, his enemies made much
capital of the situation. Just as she
was preparing to leave for Washing
ton to rule as mistress of the execu
tive minsion. Mrs. Jackson overheard
a gathering of women in a room ad
joining hers in a hotel discussing h»r
with a freedom and malice that re
sulted in her complete prostration
and subsequent death.
Other Ladies of the White House.
Other women who have graced the
White House have, each, their places
in history. Martha Washington, Lucy
Webb Hayes, Julia Dent Grant, Mar
tha Patterson, who aided her father,
President Johnson; Mrs. Andrew
Johnson, Harriet Lane, the beloved
niece of President Buchanan, AbigaiJ
Fillmore. Mrs. James K. Polk, Letitia
Christian Tyler, Angelica Van Buren,
Mrs. Martin Van Buren, Louisa Cath
erine Adams and Martha Jefferson.
Their impression on their country’s
future has been scarcely less defined
than was the mark made by the dis
tinguished men whose names they
bore. For the social influence is every
bit as important as the political influ
ence, and its victories, though unoffi
cial, just as pronounced.
THE ADVANCE OF JAPAN.
1
Its Recent History Recalls the Feats
of Cyrus the Great.
The rapidity of Japan's ascension
from obscurity to the front rank of
world powers may well seem marvel
ous to contemporary onlookers, but it
is by no means without a precedent
in the history of Asia, which from
time immemorial has been the cradle
of quickly'developing empires, says
the New York Sun.
Considerably less than half a cen
tury elapsed, for instance, between
the date when Cyrus the Great
emerged irom his highland principal
ity of Persia proper, and the death of
his son Cambyses, yet in that interval
was created a monarchy which was
destined to endure for upward of two
centuries and which spread from Sa
markand to Smyrna and from the Cas
pian to the Second Cataract of the
Nile. Less than 50 years was needed
to erect upon the. ruins of the Hellen
istic kingdoms founded by Alexander’s
successors the immense Parthian
realm which stretched from the Eu
phrates to the Indus, and which in
historical fact as well as in the ima
ginative picture drawn by Milton in
“Paradise Regained” remained for
centuries the unconquerable counter
poise of the Roman world. Within
less than seven decades after the
death of Mohammed the sway of the
Caliphs reached from the . Hindu
Koosh to the Pyrennees, and in less
than two generations the' enormous
dominion evolved by Genghis Kahn
and his descendants extended from
the neighborhood of the ViBtuls, to
the China sea.
That Japan would beat China to the
might
ground in the w&r of 1894-95
have been taken for granted from the
moment that the former power adopt
ed the military and. naval metlods
and the perfected ‘weapons of the
west. But that ihe island empiro of
the Pacific, which as lately ait :i867
had no.war fleet and whose warriors
were still limited for weapons of of
fense to the sword and the tow,
should have been able in the wa * of
1904-05 to defeat on land and »ea the
colossal of European powers
ibtedlv an achievement
most
undoubtedly an
under all the circumstances must be
pronounced unparalleled in the his
tory of the western world. Even be
fore the outcome of her contest with
Russia had justified Japan's claim to
a place in the first rank of nations the
demonstration of military and naval
efficiency made by her in the war with
China had led the western powers to
relieve her from the odious regime of
exterritoriality by which China and
Turkey are still humiliated. Not until
August 1. 1905, however, had any
Christian state entered Into an agree
ment based on the assumption that
Japan would have quite as much to
give an ally as she could receive. The
Anglo-Japanese treaty, signed on the
date just named, was based on that
assumption,
When the signatures-have been at
tached to these negotiations we «i»«n

nation, which 40 years ago was cen
turies behind Europe or the United
States in the arts of offensive and de
fensive warfare, linked by treaties not
merely commercial, but: political, to
some of the most enlightened
mighty states on earth. ; ^ ■
ONE MAN'S EXPERIENCE
IN WESTERN CANADA.
There Are Thousands of Opportunities
in the Land of Opportunity.
To the Editor.
Dear Si?:
The following experience of an Illi
nois man who went to Western Can
ada six years ago is but one of the
thousands of letters that could be re»
produced showing how prosperity fol
lows the settler on the fertile lands of
Western Canada. This letter was
written to the Chicago agent of the
Government of the Dominion of Can
ada and is dated at Evarts, Alberta,
April Sth, 190":
“It is six years the 5th of this month
since I and family landed in Red Deer,
family sick and only $75 in my pocket.
Bought a $12 lot, built a 12x14 shack
and went to work as a carpenter.
Next May sold for $400 (had added
16x18 building to shack). Purchased
two lots at $70 each.and built a 23x28
two story building and sold for $950.
Filed on a quarter section 33 miles
N. W. of Red Deer and have spent
three years on it and am well pleased.
Quarter all fenced and cross fenced,
wire and rail, 2(4 miles of fence.
House 29x31 feet on stone foundation.
Last year was my first attempt to
raise grain, 1% acres of fall wheat,
yield grand, but was frosted August
2nd, was cut August 16th and made
good pig feed. Had 1acres fall rye
that I think could not be beat. A
farmer from Dakota cut it for me; he
said he never saw such heavy grain
anywhere. Strawr was 7 feet high. "I
had 4 acres of 2 rowed barley on fall
breaking that did not do so well, yet
it ripened and gave me all the feed I
need for stock and seed for this
spring. I did not have grain threshed,
so can't give yield, but the wheat
would have gone at least 25 bu. to the
acre. Have a log stable 31x35 feet,
broad roof and two smaller buildings
for pigs and chickens.
“I have lived in Harvey, Ills., and
know something about it. I have been
hungry there and though able and !
willing to work could get none to do.
One Saturday evening found me with
out any supper or a cent to get it with.
A friend, surmising my situation, gave ■
me a dollar^ which was thankfully ac
cepted and later paid back. Wife and i
I are thankful we came here. We
were living near Mt. Vernon. Ills., as
perhaps you remember visiting me
there and getting me headed for the
Canadian Northwest, and a happy day
it has proved for me. I have not
grown rich, but I am prospering. I
would not take $3,000 for my quarter
now. The past, winter has been a
hard one, but I worked outside the
coldest day (52 below) all day and did
not suffer. We are getting a school
started now that is badly needed.
“Our P. O., Evarts, is about 15
miles; there is another office 6 miles,
but it is not convenient to us. Wife
and I would not exchange our home
here for anything Illinois has to offer.

HAPPENED AT BAD TIME.
Minister's Fall Significant in View of
Previous Words.
In a small church in one of the min
ing towns of Pennsylvania was a pul
pit both antique and unique. It was
about the size and shape of a flour
barrel, was elevated from the floor
about four feet and was fastened to
the wall. The ascent was by narrow
winding steps.
A minister from a neighboring town,
a man of great vigor and vehemence,
preached there one Sunday. While
preaching he bent forward and shout
ed out with great force the words of
his text:
"The righteous shall stand, but the
wicked shall fall.”
Just as these words escaped from
his lips, the pulpit broke from its
fastening, and he fell out and rolled
over on the floor before his congre
gation. In an instant he was on his
feet again and said:
“Brethren, I am not hurt, and I
don't mind the fall much, but I do
bate the connection.”
ELEVEN YEARS OF ECZEMA.
Hands Cracked and Bleeding—Nail
Came Off of Finger—Cuticura Rem
edies Brought Prompt Relief.
"I had eczema on my hands for
about eleven years. The hands crack
ed open in many places and bled. One
of my fingers was so bad that the nail
came oft. I had tried so many rem
edies, and they all had failed to cure
me, I had seen three delete; s, but got
no relief. Finally I got a cake of Cuti
cura Soap, a box of Cuticura Ointment
and two bottles of Cuticura Resolvent
Pills. Of course I keep Cuticura Soap
all the time for my hands, but the one
cake of Soap and half a box of Cuti
cura Ointment cured them. I recom
mend the Cuticura Remedies to all
suffering with eczema. Mrs. Eliza A.

For Hardening Drill.
Hardening an ordinary drill in sul
phuric acid, states the English Me
chanic, makes an edge that will cut
tempered steel or facilitate cutting
hard rock. The acid should be poured
into a flat-bottomed vessel to a depth
of about one-eighth of an inch The
point of the drill is heated to a dull i
cherry ijed, and dipped in the acid to
that depth. This makes the point
extremely hard, while the remainder
remains soft. If the point breaks, re
harden, but with a little less acid in
the vessel.
The extraordinary popularity of fine i
white goods this summer makes the
choice of Starch a matter of great im

makes half the usual quantity of Starch
necessary, with the result of perfect

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

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

ble can be entirely overcome by using
Defiance Starch, as it can be applied
much more thinly because of its great

INFANT MORTALITY is sometMng friglitful, We can hardly realize that of
all the children bom in civilized countries, twenty two per cent., or nearly
one-quarter, die before they reach one year; thirtyseven percent., or more
than one-third, before they are five, and one-half before they are fifteen!
We do not hesitate to say that a timely use of Castoria would save a ma
jority of these precious lives. Neither do we hesitate to say that many of these
infantile deaths are occasioned by the use of narcotic preparations. Drops, tinctures
and soothing syrups sold for children’s complaints contain more or less opium, or
morphine. They are, in considerable quantities, deadly poisons. In any quantity
they stupefy, retard circulation and lead to congestions, sickness, death. Castoria
operates exactly the reverse, but you must see that it bears the signature of
Chas. Hi Fletcher. Castoria causes the blood to circulate properly, opens the
pores of the skin and allays fever.

Letters from Prominent Physicians
addressed to Chas. H. Fletcher.
Dr. A. F. Peeler, of St. Louis, Mo., says: “I have prescribed your Castoria
in many cases and have always found It an efficient and speedy remedy.”
Dr. EL Down, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: “I have prescribed your Cas
toria in my practice for many years with great satisfaction to myself and
benefit to my patients.”
Dr. Edward Parrish, of Brooklyn, N. Y., says: "I have used your Cas
toria in my own household with good results, and have advised several
patients to use it for its mild laxative effect and freedom from harm.” t
.Dr. J- B. Elliott, of New York City, says: “Having during the past six
years prescribed your Castoria for infantile stomach disorders, I most
heartily commend its use. The formula contains nothing deleterious
to the most delicate of children.”
Dr. C. G. Sprague, of Omaha, Neb., says: ‘Tour Castoria is an ideal
medicine for children, and I frequently prescribe it While I do not advo
cate the indiscriminate use of .proprietary medicines, yet Castoria is an
exception for conditions which arise in the care of children.”
Dr. J. A. Parker, of Kansas City, Mo., says: “Your Castoria holds the
esteem of the medical profession in a manner held by no other proprie
tary preparation. It is a sure and reliable medicine for infants and chil
dren. In fact it is the universal household remedy for infantile ailments.”
Dr. H. F. Merrill, of Augusta, Me., says: “Castoria is one of the very
finest and most remarkable remedies for infants and children. In my
opinion your Castoria has saved thousands from an early grave. I can
furnish hundreds of testimonials from this locality as to its efficiency
and merits.”
Dr. Norman M. Geer, of Cleveland, Ohio, says: "During the last twelve
