By an act of congress passod a year

Is now Incorporated under the laws

While by uo means nilnliiitxlng the

declaration of the society's failure to

number of business men In New York,
wishing to cooperate with the l(ed

An editorial In the Outlook, calling

It was a Swiss gentleman, Henri
Dunant, who founded the great Ked
t'roaa work. A man or wealth, he
was traveling with his servant In
northern Italy at the time of the
dreadful battle of Solfcrlno (June 24,
185 ), when 300,000 men faced each

bought her victory at the coat of

THE POINT OF THE PROVERB
An old proverb advisee the ahoe-
maker to stick to hla laat. It meani
that a man alwaya succeeds best at
the business he knows. To the farm' r
It meana. stick to your plow; to tbe
blacksmith, atlck to your forge; to
the painter, stick to your bru«h.
When we make eiperlments out of our
line th r are likely to prove expeu-
alve failures.
It la amusing, however, to remark
how every one of u* secretly thlnka
he could do aorne other fellow's work
better than tho other fellow himself.
The painter imagine* ho can make
paint better than the paint manufac-
turer; tho farmer thinks he can do
a Job of painting better, or at leaat
cheaper than the painter, and ao on.
A farm hand In one of Octave
Thamt'a storleH tells the Walking
Delegate of the I'alntcra' Union, "Any-
body can slather paint;" and the old
line painter tell* the paint aalesman,
"None of your ready made mixture*
for me; I reckon I ought to know
bow to mix paint."
Tho farm hand I* wrong and the
painter la wrong: "Shoemaker, atlck
to your laat." The "fancy farmer"
can farm, of course, hut It la an ex-
pensive amusement. If It Rtrlkca him
ai pleasant to grow strawberries at
Afty cents apiece, or to produce eggs
that cost him Ave dollar* a dozen, It
la a form of amusemrat, to be *ure,
If he can afford It, but It's not farm
Ing. If the farmer likes to Blosh
around with a paint brush and can af-
ford the time and the expenae of hav-
ing a practical painter do the Job
right pretty Boon afterward, It's a
harmless form of amusement. If the
palnter'a customers can afford to
atand for paint that comes off In half
the time It should, they have a perfect
right to Indulge his harmless vanity
about hla skill In paint making. But
In none of those cases does the shoe-
maker stick to his laat.
There la Just one class of men In
the world that knows how to make
paint properly and have the facilities
for doing It right; and that la the
paint manufacturers—the makers of
the standard brands of ready-prepared
paints. Tho painter mixeg paints;
the paint manufacturer grinds them
toprther. In a good ready-prepared
paint every particle of one kind of
pigment Is forced to Join hands with
a particle of another kind mid every
bit of solid matter Is forced, as It
were, to open Its mouth and drink In
Its share of llqseed oil. That is the
only way good paint can bo made, and
If the painter knew how to do It he
has nothing nt hand to do It with. A
paint pot and a paddle are a poor
substitute for powcr-mlxers, buhr-mllls
and rollennllla.
The man who owns a building and
neglecta to paint It as often as It
needs paint Is only a degree more
short-sighted than the one who tries
to do hU own painting or allows the
painter to mix his paint'for him.

Aa the clock atruck ten, Cowlea—
Junior of Caxton & Cowles, tbe manu-
racturlng chemlats—sent up his card.
Cowlea wa* bidden to go up and enter, clertT'In ~ amazement
the *1( k-room.
"Well, what Is It?" Caxton asked,
not too cordially. ' It's that infernal
contract—eh?"
"Yep."
"I knew It! I knew It! I knew
we were in for a muss, sooner or later.
It waa a fool thing from the very
start. You never ahould have made
It"
"Well, It waa a pretty broad con-
tract," Cowlea confessed. "I'm not

Hewes would henceforth buy his aal-
soda muck more cheaply.
The appearance in hi* private offlon
of the elderly receiving clerk from
Washington street Interrupted hi*
thought.
"What'a that, Burrell?"
"The bureau of encumbrances hid n
man down below. Just now, to clear
the street. We've got barrels of sal-
soda down there to burn."
"What!" Hewes's desk chair spun
around and he faced the receiving

"Yea, sir. Didn't you order It?"
"Well—yes, I did order it, Burrell,
but—"
"It got there all right. Say, we've
got sal-soda on the street, sal-soda on
the ground floor, sai-soda upstairs;
there's more of It out on the piatf rm
that'll have to go on the roof, I gueis.

me see. We were to furnish them with
something like two thousand barrel*

to
the deliveries to be made when they
called for them. That's the sub-
stance. Last week they wanted one
hundred barrels at one delivery. It
was all nonsense, of course. They
couldn't possibly use It all ut once and
It noarly wiped out our stock of sal
aoda—but I gave It to them."
Cowles avoided tin eye of the In-
valid and stared across the bed, falling
Into contemplation of the bottles on
the medicine table.
"Now," he said softly, "they want
two huudred and fifty barrols more,
before noon to-morrow!"
"Two—hundred—and—fifty!" Cax-
'on shouted.
"Um-m."
"Why, hang It!" Caxton cried, test-
•ly. "I don't believe they've even got
storage facilities for another two hun-
dred and fifty barrols there! It's a
put-up Job."

"What time did they stop?"
"I guess It waa about quarter
twelve, John."
"That'a right. I—I'll swear I never
thought they'd deliver It," sighed
llewes. "Well—put It wherever you
can, llurrell."
The painful superfluity of soda upon
his hands pursued John Hewes
through Thursday morning; and when
after lunch Cowles' card was brought
him, he felt no proper cordiality.
What the devil had he come for, any-
way? Was it to enjoy a brief seance
of politely veiled gloating?"
But the Junior partner of Caxton &
Cowles wore a frown of annoyance as
he entereu.
"I suppose you've got it in for me,
Mr. Hewes?"
"Hey? Wny?" Howes asked ab-
ruptly.
"What! Hadn't your people put in a

A LAND OF OPPORTUNITIES.
Inducements Held Out by Western
Canada Are Powerful
A recent number of tbe Winnipeg
(Manitoba) Free Press contains aa
| excellent article on the prospects ln
Western Canada, a portion of which
we are pleased to reproduce.
The agents of tbe Canadian Gov*
ernment, located at different centres
in the States, will be pleased to give
any further information as to rates,
and how to reach these lands.
"Just now there is a keener Inter-
est than ever before on the part of
the outside world, In regard to the
claims of the Canadian West as a field
of settlement. At no previous time
has there been such a rush of Immi-
gration, and the amount of informa-
tion distributed broadcast Is unprece-
dented ly great.
"In the majority of the States of
the Union and ln Great Britain the
opportunities for home-making and
achieving of even a modest oompe-
tence are at tbe best limited. More-
over, according to the social and in-
dustrial conditions prevalent in those
communities, the future-holds out no
promise of better things. It Is not
strange, then, that energetic young
men should turn their eyes to Can-
ada's great wheat belt, where every
man can pursue fortune without the
hindrance of any discouraging handi-
cap.
"The inducements held out by West,
ern Canada are powerful and made
manifest by the great movement now
ln progress. That the prospects are
considerably more than reasonably
certain Is borne out by the history of
the country and its residents. The
promise of gain is powerful, but when
added to It there Is the prospect of a
corresponding social and civil eleva-
tion, It should prove Irresistible to
young men of a particularly desirable
class for any new country.
"The Canadian West is alive with
opportunities for the young man who
alms at becoming more than a mert
atom in the civil and national fabric
Some of the eager young fellows whe
fkrrlve on the prairies dally are des-
tined to become more than merely
prosperous farmers. In the near fu-
ture great municipal and provincial
development will be ln the hancls of
the people. The stepping stone to
both financial prosperity and civil
prominence Is. and will be, the farm.
For every professional opening there
are hundreds of agricultural openings.
The Canadian prairies are teeming
with opportunities for the honest and
industrious of all classes, but they
are specially inviting to the ambitious
young man who seeks a field for the
energy and ability which he feels in-
herent within him. The familiar cry
of "Back to the soil!" Is more than
a vain goundng phrase when applied
to Western Canada."

KIDNEY_TROUBLES
Increasing Anions Women, But
Sufferers Need Not Despair
THE BEST ADVICE IS FREE
Of all thediseases known, with which
the female organism is afflicted, kidney
disease is the most fatal, and statistics
show that this disease is on the increase
among women.
MrjEmma Sawyer
Unless enrl v and correct treatment Is
applied the patient seldom survives
when once the disease Is fastened upon
her. We believe Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound Is the most effi-
cient treatment for chronic kidney
trouble* of women, and la the only med-
icine especially prepared for this
purpoac.
When a woman Is troubled with pain
or weiffht in loins, backache, frequent,
painful or scalding1 urination, swelling
of limbs or feet, swelling1 under tho
eyes, an unensy, tired feeling1 In the
region of the kidneys or joticcs a
sediment ln the urine, she should
lose no time In commencing treatment
with Lydia E. Plnkhams Vegetable
Compound, as It may be the means of
saving her life.
For proof, rend what Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound did for Mro.
Sawyer.
" I cannot exprem the terrible unff-rlng I
had to endure A deranuomcnt of tb feninls
organ* developed nervou* proration and a
asrlous kidney trouble The doctor attended
me fur a mr, but I kept Retting worse, until
I waa unable to do anything, and I made up
my mind I could not live I finally deeM-d
to try Lydia E. Hnkhnm'* Vegetable Com-
pound aa a last nwort, and I am to-<lav a well
woman. I cannot pr*i«e Ittnohighly, ami I
tell ererv ritTerlnu woman about my cam."
