Immigrant* in Demand.
A silent but titanic struggle is now
la between two great economic forces
In this country, ssys Broughton Bran-
denburg in the Technical World, anil
the bone of contention la the Euro-
pean immigrant. It takes people to
work the thousands of great mills In
the Industrial sections of the north
and east; and labor that is cheaper
Is In such demand as to be powerfully
attracted. The vast undeveloped
reaches of the south and west can-
not be made to become productive
without population, so that from the
vanguard of th< nation builders comes
the unceasing cry of "People, people,
more people!" A railroad 1b imme-
diately Interested In the transporta-
tion of people and their belonglugB
from the eastern renters of popula-
tion which are the points of Ingress
of European Immigrants to the dis-
tricts where they are going to make
habitation; but It la more profound
ly Interested In permanently estab-
lishing a thrifty stock In the fertile
regions which it taps, Inasmuch as
every step of progress the settlers
make raises the value of the railroad
by Increasing Its business. Tho trans
continental haul Is sufficiently profit-
able only to enable the railroads to
bold their own In the sparsely popu-
lated strip lying between the Missis-
sippi valley and the Pacific coast. To
broaden single lines of track Into such
great four-track routes bb the New
York Central, for Instance, It Is nec-
essary that the railroads traverse as
populous and prosperous n country as
Mew York state. Every railroad man
knows this; hul the public either for-
gets It or has never thought of It.
That is why the railroads are the
leaders In the grand battle to wrench
the Immigrant out of the hnnds of
the eastern employing agencies, which
get first call on him when he leaves
Ellis Island, and which have the ad-
vantage of ready cash Instead of glow-
ing opportunity to offer him.
Sever* Congestion of tha Kidneys
Soon Cured by Doan's Kidnty Pills.
Richard M. Reared, a prominent
business man of 231 So. Orange St.,
Newark, N. J., says: "Working nights
during bad weather
brought on a heavy
cold, aching of the
limbs and pain In tho
back and kidneys.
Sev«re congestion of
the kidneys followed.
Besides the terrific
aching there were
whirling headaches,
and I became exceed-
ingly weak. My doc-
tor could not help me, and 1 turned
to Doan's Kidney Pills, with the re-
sult that the kidney congestion dis-
appeared nnd, with It, ull the other
symptoms. What Is more, tho cure
has lasted for eight years.”

“By Their Fruits.”
A prominent ru*»ltsber In a great
city deplored tho existing corruption
In public places, and resolved to place
himself before the people as a candi-
date for pure and untainted govern-
ment. He aspired for the office of
mayor. His Journal spread over the
city as a huge white blanket of moral
persuasion, which on Sundays treb-
led In thickness. The publisher's
supporters surged from house to house
and endeavored to convince an Indif-
ferent people of their opportunity at
the polls. Magnetic orators held forth
ttelr hands in appeal and swayed
great audiences Into reverberating ap
plause. The last shot had been fired,
and weary workers retired, confident
luat on the morrow ballot boxes
would be filled to bursting with the
vote of an aroused and Indignant peo-
ple. Reluctantly, on the night the
election the publisher was compelled
announce his defeat. To sympa-
thising friends the rejected candidate
expressed his regrets. He sincerely
deplored the fact that the people had
not taken him and his efforts more
seriously. “How can you persuado
the public to be serious,” questioned
nn intimate friend, slyly, “when for
these many years you have been flood-
in' thU community with comic sup-
plements?"

Falls Already Ruined.
“Niagara falls are already ruined,"
lays the eminent hydraulic engineer,
Alton D. Adams, In Technical World
Magazine. “Already enough water
rights have been granted by New Y ork
state nnd Canada to divert all the wa-
ter whleh^now. falling over both the
American and the Canadian falls,
makes the great cataract one of the
nutural wcuders of the world. If the
capitalists and promoters who now
hold franchises were all to establish
plants, the entire flow of Niagara
river would be diverted Into under-
ground channels; and the might)
difs over which the torrent now
pours in resistless grandeur would be
left rugged and bald and dry. Mr.
Adams sees email hope In the pro-
posed treaty between the United
States and Great Britain. He does
not believe that Canada will be
wti-mg party to any treaty which will
cut off tho great income It enjoys from
leasing Niagara power. His plan is
to excavate and dee*pen the channel
leading to the American fall, which
will otherwise run dry long before
tne Canadian or Horseshoe fulls will

A citizen of Colorado has offered $2,500
in prises for growing an acre of grain
from choice selected seed, considering
quantity and quality, to the schoolboys
and girls of that stute under 18 years of
age. The Journal of Education says
this is the first offer of the kind, but It
is the beginning of a line of Inspirational
prizes that Is likely to become common
before long. _

Henry D. Moorman. 26 years old,
the youngest county Judge In Ken-
tucky. was recently ilected In Clover-
port and af few days ago performed
his first marriage ceremony. He says

marriage Is too sacred a ceremony for
Judges to perform. Says Judge Moor-

cil convened at the old Creek capital
Okmulgee. The council will probably
be In session ten (lays and the nature
of Its proceedings will depend very
largely upon whether the Curtis bill

Rights — Not Mere Charity Pa-
tients—Late Years Show Marked
Improvement lr. Their Status.
When we learn that most of tha
blind are born of the poor, we get
some realization of the sad state of
those thus afflicted. "Poor and blind"
Is a phrase of ancient import.
In modern times there has been
much alleviation of their condition.
"With the Improvement In cleanliness
and In sanitary appliances at orphan
asylums and houses of refuge, blind-
ness has decreased In the United
States In recent years." And there
has been a marked change In the life
of those suffering from the affliction
They are no longer the ^gnorant, de-
pendent, wretched cIubs of days pre-
ceding Intelligent public provision
for their needs. Much of the change
Is due to the blind themselves, whose
eagerness und hopefulness has led them
from dependence Into useful and hon-
orable careers.
The I'nlted States had held a dis-
tinct place in the work tor the blind.
It had not taken the European atti-
tude that what work was done fo1-
these unfortunates was in the nature
of charity, but has put them In a

the other wards of the state, the pub-
lic school children. The education of
the blind forms an Integral part of
our educational system.
In this country a blind child re-
ceives the same instruction as Is
given In the best common ichooU
They are taught the elements of voca:
and Instrumental music. They are
trained in some simple handwork, the
Intention being that they may beeom"
self supporting. It Is believed ther)
Is a larger proportion of self-support-
ing blind persons in the United States
than in any other country.
Statistics show that scarcely two-
tenths of the graduates from lnstltu
lions for the blind practice the handi-
crafts learned therein. Most of tha
graduates resort to various branched
of the musical profession, teaching the
elements of vocal and instrumental
music, playing upon organs, tuning
pianos, or trading In musical instru-
ments. Some graduates take petty
agencies, and with a guide go about
the country, peddling on their owd
account. Others, favored by frlen
find employment In some of the t
tabllshments where hand-work, com-
bined with a certain amount of head-
work. Is required. A few work dllt
gently at their trades, and earn an
honest and comfortable livelihood/
In New York city education for the
blind has made great progress. A re
cent article in the New York Worl 1
calls attention to three graduates of
the New York Institution for the
Blind; one, Mr. Eben Murford, who
manages a factory in which only
blind men are employed; Prof. Carl,
professor of mathematics at Columbia
university, and Thomas Dagnia, th?
organist.
A book whose aim Is to direct the
blind how best to employ tlielr time
has appeared in France, the author, a
famous oculist who at the age of 62
was suddenly stricken with blindness.
The book Is unique, deals with the
heart of things, shows what are the
dally frets of the blind man—which
mount into so much of the tragedy ol
his life. One thing that specially Im-
pressed us was the evil accruing from
telling a blind man lies, the admoni-
tion always to be exact In statements
made to the sightless. If a man lack-
ing eyes cannot put trust In those with
whom he holds converse, life is made
very dark for him indeed. Two ways
of adding to the joys of the blind per-
son's life also were of much Interest
one, taking him to the theater, a good
Beat In the front near the middle hav-
ing been provided and the play pre-
viously explained, then, as the play
progresses, the stage setting should be
pictured. Another happy suggestion
was the reading aloud of plays, the
different parts taken by different Indi-
viduals. And one readily saw th3
pathos of the remark that the unfortu-
nate blind have to listen to bo much
perfunctory reading.

Moon Lunacy.
How much basis Is there for the
notion that the moon li a cause of
lunacy? In a book recently publish-
ed In London the author, Basil Lub-
bock, who Is a traveler of experience,
says:
Many a time have 1 hauled a sleep-
ing man out of the glare of the tropi-
cal moon for fear of its direful beams,
and many a time have 1 had the like
service done to me.
If lucky, one gets off with "moon
blindness,” or a queer and unpleas-
ant contraction of the muscles of one
side of the face, but Idiocy, says Mr.
Lubbock, is often Induced. It Is cer-
tainly a very old and widespread
opinion, though perhaps It has never
been adequately tested by science.
“COFFEE JAGS.’’
Peril Eliminated.
"I am sorry,” said the doctor, "but
your little girl will not be able
speak for several days.”
"Then it will be safe.” said the anx-
ious mother, "for me to invite the min-
ister to tea, won't If?"—Judge.
The Doctor Named Them Correctly.
Some one said "Coffee never hurts
any one.” Enquire of your friends
and note their experiences.
A Fhila. woman says
"During the last 2 or 3 years I be-
came subject to what the doctor call-
ed ‘coffee Jags’ and felt like I have
heard men say they feel who have
drank too much rum. It nauseated
me, and 1 felt as though there was
nothing but coffee flowing through
my veins.
"Coffee agreed well enough for a
time, but for a number of years I have
known that It was doing me great
harm, but, like the rum toper, I
thought I could not get along without
It It made me nervous, disordered
my digestion, destroyed my sleep and
brought on frequent and very distress-
ing headaches.
“When 1 got what the doctor called
'coffee jag’ on, I would give up
drinking It for a few days till my
sumach regained a little strength,
bm t was always fretful and worried
and nervous till I was able to resume
the use of the drug.
About a year ago I was persuaded
to try Postum, but as I got It In res-
taurants It was nothing but a sloppy
mess, sometimes cold, and always
weak, and of course I didn't like it.
Finally I prepared some myself, at
home, following the directions care-
fully, and found It delicious. I perse-
vered In Its use, quitting the old cof-
fee entirely, and feeling better and
better each day. till I found at last,
to my great Joy, tnat my ailments had
all disappeared and my longing for
coffee had come to an end.
"I have heretofore suffered Intense-
ly from utter exhaustion, besides tha
other ailments and troubles, but this
summer, using Postum, I have felt
fine." Name given by Postum Cci-
Battle Creek. Mich.
There’s a reason.

Postum Coffee properly. They do not
'et It boil long enough
