One account states that a little soil is
placed in half an orange from which
the inside has been removed. In this
soil is placed the seed which it is de
sired to grow. As the roots burst
through the skin of
the orange they are
cut with a sharp knife. The process
is repeated until the roots evince no
further desire to penetrate. The out
side of the orange is then varnished
with a secret varnish , and the young
tree planted in an ornamental pot.

Mrs.llrooks Became So "Weak She Thinks
Sho AVoultl Have Died But For
I > r. Williams' Pink Pills.
Mrs. Sarah L. Brooks , of No. 45 Lin
coln Park , Chicago , Illinois , gives the
following account of ner cure from dis
tressing spells of vomiting :
"For five years off aud on I was
treated in vaiu by different doctors for
relief from a stomach trouble which
showed itself in frequent and trying
spells of vomiting. Part of the time I
was able to work and again I would bo
confined to bed for three or four days in
succession.
"My stomach was at times so delicate
that it would not retain even plain water.
The spells would sometimes occur at in
tervals of half an hour , and would leave
me so weak that I would be compelled
to lie down between them. I would
have several of them during the night
following a day of such attacks. Finally
I became so weakened that I had to give
up working altogether. I weighed only
ninety-four pounds.
" Last January I read about Dr. "Wil
liams' Pink Pills for Pale People in one
of the Chicago daily papers and bought
a box and began to use them. After I
had used half a box I found that I could
keep on my stomach the food I ate. I
was encouraged by this and kept on
using the pills for four months. At the
end of that time the vomiting spells had
ceased altogether and niy weightveiit
up to 142 pounds and is still growing.
" I think I surely would have died if
it had not beeu for Dr. Williams' Pink
Pills for I sometimes vomited clear
blood , and for three or four days at a
time I could not eat a bite of anything.
One doctor said I had chronic inflamma-
fion of the stomach , and another said
my difficulty was a cancer , but none of
their medicines did me any good at all.
finally I concluded that I did not have
.blood enough to digest my food and I
began the treatment that has cured me.
I can eat anything now , and have
strength for all kinds of work. I always
keep Dr. "Williams' Pink Pills on hand ,
and I recommend them to my friends
because I know they cm-ed me. "
Dr. Williams'Pink Pills agree with the
most delicate stomachs and strengthen
the digestive organs until they do their
work perfectly. They are so'ld by all

OF THE DAY
Dispersement of White House Treasures
Many people believe that the White
House has been irretrievably ruined
by the modern and garish way it has
been remodeled by President Roose
velt. The beautiful white marble man
tel over the fireplace of the East room ,
at which many of the fathers of the
'Republic had warmed and meditated ,
or chatted with visitors and statesmen ,
was torn out and sold by auction for
two dollars and a quarter. It was
rescued from a junk shop in Alexan
dria by a patriotic gentleman Colonel
J. E. Sickels , who owns a fine colonial
iflome near Washington , and it now
, 'adoras his dining room. Nearly all the
( fine old furniture that was so appro
priate to the old White House was sac
rificed at the same sale. A beautiful
sideboard that had graced the state
dining room and had held the dishes
and glassware from which diplomats ,
statesmen and their wives and sweet
hearts had eaten and drunk , which
was presented to the first President
Harrison , was sold to a saloon-keeper
for a trifle , and now does duty in a 7th
street dive. The beautiful chandeliers ,
with their thousands of cut glass pen
dants , which were imported from
France at enormous expense to the
government , were torn out and re
placed by the tawdry selection of a
modern gasman.
Many ladles when visiting tho White
( flouse to view these historic and price
less relics have shed tears when told
[ > y the attendants that President
Roosevelt had ordered them removed ,
Und they did not know where they had
been removed to.
President Roosevelt Is an iconoclast ;
he wants novelty and loves excite
ment. The memories of former great-
ness nnd the reminders of the great
men of the Republic are to him as
nothing. All these priceless treasures
of former days that other Presidents
have cherished and cared for have
been dispersed never to be gathered
again.
Ship Subsidy Resuscitated.
The whole Roosevelt administration
seems saturated withe idea that a
ship subsidy bill must be forced
through Congress. The latest high offi
cial to attempt to coerce Congress is
Robert B. Armstrong , Assistant Secre ,1
tary of the Treasury. While Secretary
Bhaw and others of the cabinet have
veiled their desire for this robbery of
the people for the ship trust , they are
quite as strongly for a ship subsidy
Dr thcdr under strappers would not be
fleclaring for it. The occasion taken
by Mr. Armstrong to inoculate others
with this Republican policy of subsidy
was the national convention of the
American Institute of bank clerks ,
held at St. Louis Aug. 25. He de
clared that the upbuilding of the mer
chant marine was wormy of the best
thought and activity of nis hearers ,
and further said :
"Just why some of the American
people objected to government assist
ance in supplying American rolling
stock for a highway of commerce that
has been in existence since creation , I
am unable to understand.
"They had not objected seriously or *
successfully against government aid to
the transcontinental railroads , and he
asked why they should protest when
it is suggested that the government
help place upon the bosom of the sea
ships that fly the American flag. "
So we may expect if Mr. Roosevelt
and a Republican Congress is elected ,
to see strong pressure brought to boar
upon Congress to load up the people
with an enormous tax for Morgan and
his steamship trust.
Mikado Has Job for Roosevelt.
The Mikado of Japan evidently has
taken the measure of President Roose
velt and knows that It is not as a
statesman but as a warrior that he is
valuable. According to a special cable
from France to the St. Louis Post-Dis
patch a Paris newspaper says : a
"We have it from a trustworthy
source that the Mikado will ask Presi
dent Roosevelt , in the event of his de
feat in the coining election , to become
commander-ln-chief of the Japanese
armies in the field. "
The advisers of the Mikado have
doubtless come to the conclusion that
Mr. Roosevelt is to be defeated for it
President , or the offer would not have
been made , and that the President has
the offer under consideration is proba
ble , but will await developments
fore deciding. With Roosevelt in Man
churia there would be "something do
ing" : all the time , and if the Japs could
stand the pressure they would either fi
drive the Russians out of the East or
perish in the attempt. With Colonel
v
Roosevelt in command we should get s
some news of what was transpiring , , - ,
for It would be an insignificant news

Ship Subsidy to Be Revived. is
Of course Secretary Shaw directly Ic
Ictl
represents the President in his public tl
announcements and speeches. When tlhi
he spoke at the banquet given by the hi
New York Chamber of Commerce last hia
November at Delmonico's , he was en a <
thusiastic for the ship-subsidy steal , If n :
no other way could be devised of in tl
creasing'the merchant marine. As the tlp ;
Junketing committee of Congress , a
headed by Senator Gallinger , has been 01
holding metings all over the country
on purpose to gather evidence in favor
of the ship-subsidy bill , there is no
doubt' that such a message will be
forced through Congress if money and
influence will do it. President Roose
velt has virtually indorsed the pro
gram that Secretary Shaw spoke of
with so much favor , and the only
means left to stop the steal is for the
people to defeat those who voted for it
Nearly every Republican member of
the United States'Senate is on record
as voting in its favor , and several of
them are candidates this year for re
election. The bill was not voted upon
In the House of Representatives. The
Republican majority there feared the
people , but it is claimed that a ma
jority are pledged to do so when it
comes up at the next session. Every
candidate for Congress should be made
to pledge himself to vote against a
subsidy bill in whatever form it may
be presented , and also that members
of the Legislature will not vote to re-
elect Senators who favored it. It is
bad enough to be plundered by the
trusts through the protective tariff ,
which is an indirect form of subsidy ,
but to rob the people directly by grant
ing an enormous subsidy to the Mor
gan steamship trust would be a crown
ing infamy that the voters should
\ird against.
"Where Part of the Republican Cam
paign Fund Comes From.
The attempt to throw dust into the
voters' eyes by the pretense that the
Republican National Committee is
short of cash , is hardly-consistent with
the report that the head lobbyist of
the Panama Canal steal has paid to
Mr. Cortelyou ? 400,000 that he prom
ised Senator Hanna if the treaty was
ratified. There was considerable con
sternation when Hanna died amongst
the principal Republican leaders as to
whether that promise to Hanna would
be kept , but the chief Panama con
spirator kept his word and came up to
the captain's office and settled like a
little man. It was also reported that
a large sum , said to be $200,000 , has
been forthcoming from J. Pierpont
Morgan as part of the bargain that
gave his firm the control of the Pan
ama payment to the French company.
The support of President Roosevelt by
the Sun , which is largely owned by
Morgan , is doubtless part of the same
bargain. Panama has been an un
savory mess from its inception and
does not seem to have improved in
flavor since it has been transferred to
this country. That President Roose
velt should be even cognizant of the
bribery and corruption is unfortunate ,
but that he is benefiting by it person
ally is deplorable. ,
Political Potpourri.
The Republicans want "the support"
of Wall street , but they wish Mr. Mor
gan and Mr. Rockefeller would not be
so effusive about it as to attract at
tention. |
Senator Lodge wishes he had al
lowed those reciprocity treaties to
come to a vote in the Senate and the
business men of Massachusetts would
take more stock in his present pretend
ed reciprocity sentiments.
Teddy has met the terrible Turk and
vanquished him without even a smell
of powder , and if some other country
does not give our navy a job there will
be nothing for it to do but come home
and dance attendance on the Four
Hundred at Newport
Flour has gone up one dollar a bar
rel , but the price of radium has de
creased one million dollars a pound.
Carroll D. Wright , of the Labor Bu
reau , will have to get out another bul
letin and show that living expenses
are stationary , for flour and radium
will offset each other , according to his
way of figuring.
There is great rejoicing in Delaware.
Addicks has announced that he will be
candidate until he is elected or dies ,
and that every Republican , "especially
the colored brethren , should register
and be prepared to vote. There is a
rush to register , but the voting will not
proceed very lively until the cash is
produced.
The Republican campaign book
might be called an official document ;
should be entitled to free distribu
tion through the mails under frank ,
for it was prepared in a government
department. It is a wonder the Re
publican National Committee did not
have the gall to print the book at the
government printing office.
The Filipinos may be getting all the
freedom they are capable of enjoying ,
but the Americans in the Philippines
would prefer having a jury trial in
stead , of being tried by a Spanish
judge. If the Constitution had fol
lowed the flag to the Philippines , the
editors lately convicted of slander
would possibly be enjoying more com
fortable quarters.
The Republican campaign text book
out , and for the asking anyone can
learn the real truth about Teddy and
the trusts ; how to have reciprocity
without reciprocating ; how the door
has been opened in China , but we can't
get in ; how honestly and capably the
administration has run the govern
ment without fraud or guile ; and how
the Republican party has put up the
price of wheat for the farmer and re-
luced the cost , of living to the balance

Proof that Kidney Trouble can be Cured by Lydia E. FMliain's Vegetable Compound.
"DEAR MRS. PIXKHAX : I feel very thankful to you for the good
your medicine has done me. I had doctored for years and was steadily
growing worse. I had trouble with my kidneys , and two doctors told
me I had Bright's disease ; also had falling of the womb , and could nofe
walk a block at a time. My back and head ached all the time , and I was
so nervous I could not sleep ; had hysteria and fainting spells , was tired
all the tune , had such a pain in my left side that I could hardly stand
at times without putting my foot on something.
"I doctored with several good doctors , but they did not help me any.
I took , in all , twelve bottles of Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com

Wash , and feel like a new woman , can eat and sleep well , do all my own
