    THE FALLS Cl I V TRIBUNE , FRIDAY , JULY 26 , 1907
Chinese Woman Editor.
Mrs. Ohnng , UieCliiiiPRO woinnn
editor , re former nml cnonil be-
nefnetor of ! u r BOX , lins just eele-
brnle'1 the lirst aiiniviTHiiry of her
new ontorpritH1 , tlie uewpnpcr for
women which she publisher in
' 1if Peking. In the yenr thnt hns
elnpsed since she Intinched her
first issue upon a population
which had never beheld n paper
that sort before.tho circulation
has grown from nothing to a list
of more than 1.000. Furthermore -
more , she is making money out of
it , though profit was not her plan.
Her purpose may be stated in her
own words :
"To open closed doors to the
mind of the Chinese woman , to
liberate her from the four walls of
her home , which she has never
dared or cared to leave in mind or
body , is an object worthy of strife.
If a change can bo brought
about I believe it will bo largely
duo to the work and power of the
press. "
A busy life this woman editor
must lead. She dieates all her
editorials , covers the local stories ,
writes her own heading and over
sees the making of the paper.
In addition to HUB , uhu looks out
for the business end of the under
taking. All the advertisements
pass through her hands , and they
bring her in on an average about
$200 a month. From the sale of
the paper she reali/ee in the
neighborhood of180 a month.
The paper sells at one copper cent
a copy , a copper cent being worth
one-half 'of the American cent.
But as the printing of the sheets
and the cost of the paper on
which they are printed are prac
tically the only expense Mrs.
Chang has to meet , and as both
labor and paper are very cheap ,
she can hardly help making money
oven at that low subscription rate.
The columns of the new paper
show an artful miuglinu of the
purely feminine with broader and
more awakening things. Mrs ,
Chang gets the news that home-
keeping women are naturally in-
tcrested in , and works out from
that in a manner to open their
eyes gradually to the fact that
there is a world outside their
homee. For several weeks she
ran a series of articaleson fashions
for women , and at another time a
number of recipes for cooking.
Items on the rearing of children
appear frequently in her columns.
But , together w th all this , she
prints telugntphic news from all
over the world , diplomatic matters
home and foreign alTairs , religious
and educational and commercial
items , the imperial edicts of China
And news of the social world.
But , most of all , Mrs. Chang's
paper is an instrument for uplift ,
ing the condition of women in

Market Letter.
Kansas City Stock Yards ,
July 22 , 1907. Although cattle
receipts were 01,000 head last
last week , the general market
ruled strong all week on desira
ble kinds , except that cows and
heifers lost 15 to 25 cents the lasl
two days of the week , and calvet
declined 50 cents. Run today is
20,000 head , including 7,000 cat
tle and calves in the quarantine
division , and 2,000 calves in
native division. Market on led

ers a shade lower , gras beef
steers weak to 15 lower. Grass
cattle from Kansas pastures have
been coming freely since the mid
dle of last week , and medium
kinds have declined 15 to 25
cents in that time , as they come
in compctstion with the bulk of
quarantine offerings , which sell
at $4 to $4.85. Good heavy grass
stcers are in demand and sell at
$5 to $5.35. Top on dry lot steers
today is $7.10 , equal to the best
price last week , and most sales of
dry loiters are at $6,50 and up
wards , corn and grass steers at
55.75 to $6.50. Buyers arc pay

and heifers , cows at $2.50 to
S4.75 , heifers $3.75 to $5.75. An
clement of strength here today
an all killing grades is a small
run at Chicago , and many east-
irn orders being filled here that
are handled from Chicago when
the supply is sufficient. Liber

be hopelessly on the clown grade
last week , but eastern shippers

Thursday here , materially bene-
fitting prices on light weights ,

Packers have been putting away
meat for some time , and spread
in prices is widening each week
us a result of discrimination
against heavy packing hogs. Top

to $5.90.
Mutton supplies arc small , and
confined mostly to small hands
of natives , as Arizona is the only

Trouble Narrowly Averted.
Upon what ticklish terms the
business of Cuban pacification
is occasionly conducted isshown
by the particulars which have
just leaked out of a projected
uprising- Triente , which re
cently gave Governor Magoon
some anxious hours. At the
palace absolute ignorance is
professed of anything- the
shape of disturbance , but the
interesting fact remains that an
uprising was projected to take
place on July 12 and would
doubtless have been started had
it not been for the vigilance
of United States army oflicers
detailed on secret service.
Nothing could better illustrate
the irritability of some of the
Cuban leaders than the triviality -
ity of the cause which started
the movement in the direction
of the woods.
All the trouble arose over the
efforts of Captain Robert Alex
ander , Eleventh United States
infantry , quartermaster of the
American garrison in Morro
castle , Santiago , to beautify the
grounds about the old fortress
by setting out trees. Unluck
ily he selected cocoanut palms
for the purpose and having se
cured from an acquaintance one
hundred young trees had them
properly placed. While the
captain was congratul a t i n g
himself on his efforts to improve
Cnban property without cost ,
for all the work of planting was
done voluntarily by the soldiers
of the garrison , the rumor went
Hying through the whole pro
vince that the Americans ivere
planting cocoanuts on the Morro
and as it takes six years for a
cocoa to come into bearing it
was of course obvious that the
Americans intended to remain
for at least that period.
Patriots met in secret and de
cided to invoke the council of
General Loynas del Castillo' ' of
Havana , who is in a condition
of chronic agitatiou over the
question of the duration of tbe
American occupation , and that
warrior dispatched two emrai-
saries to Santiago to inves
tigate. They visited the Morro
and with their own eyes saw
Captain Alexander's coco-as.
There they were and nothing
could be plainer than the Ameri
cans were determined to remain
forever. The excitement in
creased , more meetings wert
held , arms were distributed tc
the number , it is said , of seven
iity.five riiles with amtmmitioi
tl and a rising was set for July li
under the leadership of on <
Rodriguz of Santiago the Gen
Ileral Camacho of San Luis.
The pi an was to begin opera
tions by "rushing" small isola
ted posts of rural guards , massa
creing the men and then as th
insurgent ranks increased , al
tacking Santiago itself , and i
possible wiping out the Amen
n can garrison. That there wa
a trouble in the air was soon evi
dent and Lieutenant Doughert
the American oflicer in charge of
the rural guards of Santiago
made ready to meet it and sent
a requisition to Havana for a
big lot of cartridger. The secret
service officers also went to
work and exposed the whole
plot several days before the date
set for the uprising. To the
leaders they read a lecture on
the subject of arboriculture as
practiced by American soldiers
in Cuba with a solemn" warning
to abstain from any interference
therein. This sufliced to check
their patriotic ardor and now
peace reigns throughout the
island.

Heart Strength
Heart Strength , or Heart Weakness , means Nerve
Strength , or Nerve Weakness nothing more. Pos
itively , not ono weak heart In a hundred Is , In it
self , actually diseased. It U almost always a
hidden tiny little nerve that really 1 * all at fault.
ThU obscure nerve the Cardli % or Heart Nerve
simply needs , and must hare , more power , more
stability , more controlling , more governing
strength. Without that the Heart must continue
to fail , and the stomach and kidneys also have
those same controlling nerves.
This clearly explains whyas a medicine , Dr.
Shoop's Restorative has in the past done co much
for weak and ailing Hearts. Dr. Snoop first sought
the cause of all this painful , palpitating. sufloct-
Ing heart distress. Dr. Shoop's Restorative this
popular prescription is alone directed to these
weak and wasting nerve centers. It builds ;
it.strengthens : it offers real , genuine heart help.
If you would have strong Hearts , strong dl.
cestlon. strengthen these .nerves re-establish
them as needed , wltlj

Nervous
Worn-Out
If you are in this condition ,
your nerve force is weak the
power is giving out , the or
gans of your body have
"slowed up , " and do their work
imperfectly. iThis failure to
do the work required , clogs
the system and brings distress
and disease. When the nerves
are weak the heart is unable
to force the life-giving blood
through your veins ; the stomach
ach fails to digest food ; the
kidneys lack power to filter
impurities from the blood , and
the poisonous waste remains in
the system to breed disease.
Nerve energy must be restored.
Dr. Miles' Nervine will do it ,
because it strengthens the
nerves ; it is a nerve medicine
and tonic , , that rebuilds the
entire nervous system.
"Several years ago I wag all broken
down. I was nervous , worn-out , could
not nleep , anil was in constant pain.
I doctored for months , and finally the
doctor said lie could do nothing for
me. I began taking Dr. Miles'
Nervine , and used altogether eight
bottles , and I became strong and
healthy , and now weigh 170 pounds. "
