"A girl should never marry a fellow until she's got another man s honest opinion of him. She can always get such an opinion, Kittens, even where she has no father or brother. There's always a straight chap somewhere around whom a girl can go to, and that sort of man will never refuse to be honest with suoh a girl if she will be honest with him and if she will heed what he says when he puts the facts before her and not go off on that silly tangent of reforming a man after marriage! If a girl likes to play the role of a martyr and that sort of thing seems to appeal to a lot of girls it's about the surest way to a perfect hell on earth (for give me, Sis, but that's the only word) that she can findl" See the whole letter in the DECEMBER Number of The Ladies' Home Journal Of All Dealers at 15 Cents a Copy THE CURTIS PUBLISHING COMPANY, PHILADELPHIA, PA.

It Is persistently re ported from San Juan de Martinez, province of Plnar del Rio, that Congressman Pino Guerra, who 1b charged by the prosecuting Judge of San Juan de Martinez with being the leader of the Insurrectionary plot In that vicinity, and who Is evading capture, now has a following of over fifty men, anil It Is said that other friends of the con gressman, former officers of the revolu tionary army, have similar followings. General Rodriguez, commander of the rural guards. Informed the Associated Press that there Is absolutely confirmatory evi dence of these rumors and showed the cor respondent the replies received by tele graphic Inquiries made to the commanding officers In Plnar del Rio, all of whom de nied that anything had occurred beyond what had already been reported and stated that the country between San Juan de Mar tinez and Guanez, where the insurgents are reported to be, Is all open, consisting of tobacco fields. All the officers of the rural guards discredit the report that Congress man Guorra has uny considerable follow ing. In the entire province of Plnar del Rio there are at present about 400 rural guards. C.ilonel Piedra, who Is wanted in Havana In connection with the finding of arms at Cerro, a suburb of Havana, Is supposed to have gathered together a band of about twenty Insurrectionary comrades near Batabano.

CLOUD ON THE LABOR HORIZON Strike la Building; Trades Mar later, 'ere with Construction Which la Now at Hlah Water Mark. NEW YORK, Nov. 24 R. G. Dun A Company's weekly review of trade to morrow will say: Fundamental conditions are unchanged, although higher temperature at many points again checked sales of heavyweight wearing Apparel and other seasonable merchandise. Labor conditions In the build ing trades have not Improved and another serious struggle may occur which would be most unfortunate In view of the large operations under wav and contemplated. Otherwise the situation Is satisfactory and the outlook bright with mercantile collections steadilv improving. Holiday trade gathers impetus as the season ad vances. Comparisons with last year's fig ures continue favorable, this week's gains being swelled by the holiday a year ago, but equilibrium In this respect will be re stored neit week. Leading industrial un dertakings report little Idle machinery and there is less complaint regarding car short age, railway earnings thus far available for November exceeding last year's by 6.4 per cent. Foreign commerce at this port for the last week showed a loss of I1.0S9. 032 In exports and a gain of (63,177 In im- fiorts as compared with the same week ast year. It Is customary at this time of year to find a general quieting down In the iron and steel business, normal conditions do not prevail this season. Although the leading Interests have prevented any sen sational inflation of prices, all divisions of the market have hardened sufficiently to accelerate the operations of consumers who believe that It is the part of wisdom to prepare for future requirements. Activity continues at textile mills, but the primary markets for cotton goods were decidedly disturbed by the violent advance in raw material. Quiet conditions continue In the market for parker hides, chiefly because orders cover deliveries so fur Into the future that Hellers are indifferent regarding new busi ness. Leather remains quiet because of tho light offerings of such varieties as are wanted. New Kngland footwear factories aro hurrying contracts for delivery be fore the close of the year and also cutting the next season's goods. Failures this week numbered 23 In the Tnlted Ptates against 205 last year and thirty-four in Canada compared with thirty a yetfT ago.

Solitary t'onflnement is Fnnl.bment Meted Out to Promluent Illi nois Teacher. PEORIA. 111.. Nov. 24. Newton C. Dougherty has pleaded guilty to five of the forgery charges against him and will be taken to the Jollet penitentiary either tonight or tomorrow. lie appeared before Judge Worthington at 10.45 o'clock this morning, plead guilty and was given a sentence of from one to fourteen years on each of the five counts, the same to be concurrent. Tho prisoner accompanied by W. L. Irwin one of his attorneys, his son Ralph and a deputy sheriff left this Jail at 10:30 o'clock. As he left the building Dougherty said to the Jailer: , . "Well, I guess I'll have to do It." All Property Turned Over. In the court room there were TOO spectators who had heard that the former educator and financier would plead guilty. Attorney Irwin addressed the court. He said that Dougherty had turned all of his property over to him and that he (Irwin) had been given right of attorney to settle the affairs of the prisoner. He added that Dougherty's property would amount to more than the school board defalcations. He admitted that Dougherty had beer, careless and that he stood willing to take his punishment. Judge Worthington replied as follows: "I find it necessary to send him to the penitentiary, as the law provides. It will be a severe punishment. In count No. 200 the sentence will be confinement in the penitentiary at Jollet, 111., for an Indeter minate term not less than one or more than fourteen years, solitary confinement. In counts 21, 240, 43 and ?.H tho same sen tence. That Is all." While the court was rpeaing Dougherty looked straight ahead of him mid did not move a muscle. He SHid nothing when i the sentence was pronounced and was j taken back to Jail, escorted by his nttur ' heys. Million Hollars Mlsslna. j Dougherty's action today whs as unex j pected ss it was astonishing, ho having last weca pieaoea not guilty to the sanm charges. Rut the refusal of Judge Worth ington to quash the Indictments against li i in and tho fact that the November grand Jury is now in session ready to return others that would tie free of any of the errors charged In the first so tightened tho colls aro'ind the prisoner that lie could see no way out. He therefore threw him self on the mercy of the court, trusting that his old friend would deal as leniently as possible with him. This marks the. closing scenes of the most astounding school fund robbery ever brought to puhllo notice. For twenty-five yearn Newton C Dougherty, as city superintendent and foi nearly twenty years as secretary of 1 1 1 board, had almost absolute control of the school funds. He Issued script and handled notes and checks as if they, were his own property. As president of the Teorla National bans he was enabled to cover up his peculatlorf so well that from June 30, 1904. to June 30, 1905, the school fund shortago amounted tn $940,000. While all of the books of the I board have not been examined by a special auditing committee now at work, It Is cur rently believed thai the aggregate amount of money taken will reach $1,000,000. The Strnngjest Thine that could happen would be a case of con stipation that Dr. King's New Life rills wouldn't cure. Guaranteed. 25c. For sale by Sherman & McConnell Drug Co. Deal In Oranite Grove..
