rs m MAN IS STRONGER THAN IIIS STOMACH. The stomach is'the vital center of the body It the organ from which all other organs are fed. A weak stomach means a weak man. There never was a strong man with a weak stomach. What is called "weak stomach" is in general a diseased condition of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition, which prevents the proper digestion of the food which is taken into the stom : ach, and so reduces the nutrition of the body. When all food is taken away the body starves. When the food eaten is only digested and assimilated in part it only nourishes the body in part, and so the body is partly starved. And this starvation is Tt in every organ of the body dependent on the blood which is made from food. The great variety of the cures per-formed-by Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is due to its remarkable power to heal diseases of the stomach and allied organs. It cures through the stomach diseases seemingly remote, but which have their origin in a diseased condition of the stomach and the other organs of digestion and nutrition. "Weak" heart, lungs, kidneys and weak ness of other organs is cured with the cure of the weak stomach. Mr. Thomas A. Swarts: Box 103, Sub-Station C Colutubu, Ohio, writes: "I was taken very sick with severe headache, then cramps in the t. 1 1 ,nt,A nf AiirMtt thru Icidnev sioraacn, w ......... - and liver trouble, and my bad- got weak 90 I could scarcely get around.

" IV YOl COI LD KNOW. If you could know the half of all I yearn to be to you, Dear Heart? Each day that dawns I struggle to be strong ana ao my part; Yet when at last night comes softly down, I humbly pray "Ebrd, grant me still to prove my ten-, der love, just one more day. Just one ' more day to strive to rise .above small troubles, petty care, That my cramped soul may break its earth fogged bonds, at last to - dare To face the future and to gladly live with courage new, , Loyal and cheerful facing toward the light for truth and you. And yet I feel in spite of all the heights which I can never scale. In spite of all the many tests in which I daily fail. That my deep love, more deep and pure and strong than I can ever show. You somehow, through my failures, doubts and fears, will come, to know. The dreary clouds can't hide the sun for aye, it glimmers through ; The sweet, wet violet, struggling ' through dead leaves, still shows its blue. And so I trust, though oft I strike love's chord with clumsy band, You feel the melody I tried to play, and understand. -Cosmopolitan. SUNDAY SELECTIONS.

' The diners at a popular Now York restaurant are said t., have had the privilege of witnessing wi .amusing lit tle Incident one evening not long ago. An Anglicized young .man scntcd himself at a table at which there was . only one other person, a writer well known throughout the -country, Imt evidently a stranger to the newcomer. The welter Is a. man whose dress is always fastidiously neat, but by no means fashionable In cut or expensive in material. When the young man took his seat, tho writer glanced up ut him firirl QAnlntr frlm It- r-na .1.. mKi.m he knew, returned to his study of the bill of fare. The young man languidly placed . his monocle in his eye, and, screwing up his face to keep the glass In position, treated the cr truent nt tho tsihln tn a prolonged stare. The stare ended abruptly, however, for suddenly tho writer looked up. Quick na thought he nolzt-d an empty tumbler and, applying it to his right eye, stared gravely through its bottom at his vis-a-vla. The monocle was dropped in u very few seconds, and then the tumbler was replaced on the table. ; But the young Anglomanlac's face was crimson, while that of the writer remained grave and unmoved, and through the dining room rustled the sound of Kome f thing that suggested repressed mcrrl i ment.

O, Keep Affection For Husbands While Plcklnic t'p Intellectnnllty Along the Way Misa IUtcb MUtke Sen tlmentalltr For Chicago clubwomen vehemently refute the assertion of Ilallie Eruiinie Kives, the novelist, that Chicago women's interest in club life is destroying their domestic love and filling the divorce courts. Ia an swer to her charge the women want to kmm what Miss Rives knows about love. Dr. Juiia Holmes Smith says Miss Rives', views are "the expressions of immaturi ty" and questions the authoress' right to pass upon the emotional side of clubwo men. Moreover, Chicago women sny the demands of club life prevent "idle mar riages." As for real love," says Mrs. Caroline K. Sherman, "no influence on earth can swerve" it. Expressions from Miss Rives which re ceived the heartiest denunciation from the women were based on her exclama tion, "Imagine the sensations of a Chica go clubwoman who happeus to be kissed!" 'I don't think Miss Rives knows what she is talking about. Most clubwomen of Chicago aro already married, and as love and kissing are essential to marriage she Is evidently on the wrong tack," said Dr. Fiances Dickinson, head of the Har vey Medical college. "I was in club life from 1SSG to 1S04, and in all that time no one ever asked uic. to indorse her ap plication who was not already a married woman, and I don t know or a aivorce among clubwomen of Chicago. "If tho statement be true that woman insists unoii surpassing man and leading him, whose Is the fault? Doesn't he tell her when' he proposes that he will be her slave? Doesn t he say he is willing to devote his whole life to her happiness? If he is not in earnest, what is woman to believe, and what is she to do about it? That is the time of all others a woman expects a man to bo truthful, earnest and honest, ft is the man's fault if the wom an is not contented. He- should not make such promises if he does not expect his life companion to hold him to them. Show me the women's club that is a re treat for divorced women. If it were not for the women's clubs, the probabilities are that many women wouldn't have the cultivated wit to withstand some of the unexpected occurrences of married life so as to make it even tolerable." Dr. Julia Holmes Smith had the fol lowing to say: "The young woman must be extremely young to talk in this way. I think it is the expression of immaturi ty. . It seems to me, in the first place, the yovjug person knows very little of life, less about women and nothing at all about men. An estimate given by a tyro of any institution is necessarily brimful of ignorance, and certainly in this case of some conceit, because the young person sits in judgment, not upon her pe"ers, but upon those who have had long experience of life, for the clubwo man of Chicago, as of other cities, is no immature girl, but in 09 cases out of 100 is a woman rich in experience of life in all its phases the experience which goes to make up a perfect woman, that of sweetheart, wife and mother. In my judgment the number of divorced women would be found to be much fewer among clubwomen than among those whose ideals of life are bounded by desire for charming environment, extravagant liv ing and sentimental devotion. "It is an impertinence to assume that Chicago clubwomen are so intelligent they are beyond love, and also a grave in sult to a pure woman that she goes through a cataclysm of love in her teens and before she has reached the age of 20 experiences of the heart that men do not know until they are much older. My ex perience with young women goes to show that before 20 their experience is with books and with music. While they may be good chums with the boys, genuine passion is the exception. That women's clubs are the means of eliminating love from the feminine temperament is abso lutely unworthy of discussion. .: would like to see this young woman when she has really grown up and attained the measure of the perfect woman, nobly planned, 'to warn, to comfort and com mand,' and not to analyze her sensations when being kissed. Mrs. Lucy 'Flower, former member of the board of education, said: "You don't hear of as many scandals as you used to. omen s clubs have helped to prevent them. The right rort of a club is making the woman broader. This talk of the club alienating the woman's affections from her husband 13 all tommyrot. Mod ern conveniences give the woman more time than she used to have. It is not in-, dolence that makes her idle. When I was young, we used to have to make our own yeast, soap and bluing. A woman would be a fool to spend her time doing these -things now. I believe clubs increase marriages. They prevent some loveless marriages perhaps. If a woman had noth ing to do, she might be tempted to marry to provide herself with occupation." ".Before the women's clubs came into existence the tendency of women was to be more spiritual and emotional than In tellectual," said Mrs. Caroline K. Sher man, member of the board of education. "The mission of club life should be to equalize these qualities. Perhaps the ef fort of some clubwomen to change their social life -all at once has caused them to appear mure masculine than they should be. v hen the clubs induce women to be come less womanly than they were, then they are a dangerous institution. It is nonsense to say that the interests of club life are likely to deprive women of the power of loving. Love is a quality which no influence can swerve." Miss Margaret A. Haley, actuary of the Teachers' Federation, said: "What's good for the gander is good for the goose. If clubs are good for men, they are also good for women. As far as the effect of clubs on love is concerned, it is my belief that women have too much sentiment al ready. Love does not do any harm in the world, but sentiment does, and if the wo man's club results in extricating soft heartedncss from women it is doing a good thing. Clubs have a wholesome ef fect, but no woman should belong to more than seven clubs." Miss Catherine Uoggin, president of tho Teachers' Federation, said: "The mistake of most people is that they think sentimentality is love. Many times wo men marry on sentimentality instead of love. If tho clubs can teach women what is right, they will be doing a good thing. It's a good thing, too, that all women do not get married. There aren't enouirh good men-to go around."

Before being used it is steeped in hot water un til it is quite soft and is then beaten be tween two smooth stones, which causes it to separate into filaments, which can thus be obtained of any strength and thickness. Thus the seamstress has a considerable amount of labor before she commences with tho real work in hand. Finally she squats on the ground (for no native' stands to work or do anything else who can possibly help it), and, tak ing her needle, bores two holes in tho edges of the rug or garment on which she is working. ' The thread is then pushed through with tho butt of the needle, drawn tight, and two more holes are made with a like result, the skewer pro gressing very slowly compared with the Hinglish needlewoman, but fast enough for a country where time isJpf no value whatever. -T The skin upon which the seamstress is working is dampened with water before sbo commences, and as the damp thread and hide dry out it brings the work very closely together. This is carefully attend ed to, and the work is not allowed to get dry until finished, when the seamstress lays it flat upon the ground, pulling it this way and that and mixing and ar ranging the hair for several hours, until, the -skin being generally dry, it is impos sible to find the joint or hem with the naked eye.

By Telwrrapb to the Morning Htar Tampa, Fla., July 13 Captain C. P. Walts, of the ill-fated brig L. F. Muo8on, Mobile to 8agua LeQrande, is in the city en route to Mobile. He himself is a physical wreck and tells a most thrilling story of tbe wrecking of bis vessel. The suffering of Cap lain Watts acd his men is something which is almost too horrible to be pat into words. Wrecked upon a little raft, without food or water, under a blistering sun for three days, followed by huge, gloating sharks, seeiog vessels pass within hailing distance and then fade into distance, was almost too much for human to stand. He says: "Tbe men. beaten and battered by the wreckage, lay more dead than alive upon the raft, and many of them with wounds which had begun to mortify when they were rescued. "Sunday, while about two hundred miles west of Tortugas, the vessel was literally battered to pieces 1n a storm. Almost in an instant all on board real ized that tbe vessel was sinking. The life boat had been made ready and provisioned for several days. All hands rushed to lower it, and in their haste the boat was overturned and rendered useless to them. They but had time to climb upon the after- house when tbe vessel sank and left them twisting in the eddy of the water where tbe vessel bad been. "For three days, the crew, lashed to the top of the after house, were upan the tossing waters of the gulf, the improvised raft upon which tbey sat being covered a foot or more with water, and keeping that depth all the time. Thus for three days their bodies were under tbe water. The lashing waves soon tore the clothing from the men and their naked bodies were exposed to the tropical sun. They saw four vessels loom into view and then disappear. When the nights came on chilling winds made the men shiver and suffer, to be fol lowed, by the blistering heat of a tron ical sun the next day. With dry and parched lips and throats they suffered only such agonies as can be expert enced, but not described. "Monster sharks followed in. their wake, and occasionally one more yen turesome tb an the rest would come and place his snout against the little raft. These harbingers of death were always with the unhappy and helpless crew. "Beaten and battered in a storm of a few days before three men were wounded. They could do nothing for themselves, and mortification set in soon and added to the horror of their situation." Captain Watts says he does not be lieve his men will recover from their .intolerable exposure, as when he left them at Key West they were in a nor rible shape. LYNCHING! PREVENTED. Disappointed Mob Makes Attack Upon In . offensive Negroes. By Telegraph to the Morning star. Kansas City, Mo., July 13. The mob which made a demonstration last 'night against the county jail, where Prank Holland and Joe Robert son, negroes, charged with an assault upon Miss Grace Davis, are confined, broke up at 3 o'clock this morning into disorderly groups which chased and assaulted dozens of negroes who bad given no offence. At an early hour to-day gangs of men were still hanging about the north end of the town, talking of the Davis outrage and threatening the negroes. An attack on the jail, if made, would have oeen repulsed, tbe police say. Nell You surely don't think Jenkins' wife pretty. Belle Certainlv not. Nell But you told May Sowers she was just lovely.

Bv Teiegxapn to tne Morninst star. Reading, Pa.. July 13 The strike of the 2,700 employes of the Beading ron Company, - including the- tube works, the Ninth street and the Oley street mills and the sheet mill, is end ed, after having lasted ten weeks, since May 6th. The men met this afternoon when the proposition . of Vice President Spink was submitted to them and it was unanimously ce- cided to accept the offer. The men cheered as the motion was passed end ing tbe long strike and giving them higher wages. ; They win now return to work next week, as soon as the a rious departments can be put into readiness to resume operations. The resumption of work at the plants in this city will enable the Blandon and Seyfert rolling mills to resume. Tbey were compelled to stop work shortly after the strike began, as they are de pendent on -the Reading Iron Works for their product. The new scale of wages will be the same as that paid by the company in August, 1899, which was the boom pe riod of iron prices. The men willo back to work on Monday in all de partments which are able to resume.

THE DROUGHT IN THE WEST. Situation Becomes Worse Each Honr. Corn Crop Almost a Total Failure. By Telegrapn to tne norning Star. Kansas City, Mo., July 13. Despite local thunder storms, accompanied by slight rainfall in western Missouri last night, the drought that is burning up vegetation in Missouri, Kansas, Okla homa and Indian Territory is still un broken. The Kansas City weather ob server says: "Tbe atmosphere ' is so uniformly heated to such a great altitude that it makes precipitation almost impossi ble. Clouds may gather and a few drops of rain may fall, but the lower stratem of air is so hot that the ram drops would be transformed to vapor in passing through it." There is no relief in sight and the situation becomes worse each hour. Several days ago, one-fourth of a corn crop in Kansas was hoped for. Tbe estimate now must be still further reduced. Prayer for rain will be offered in scores of churches in- Missouri and Kansas to morrow. The Kansas City live stock market is a victim to the sun. Many feeders are holding back in hope that the rain may succor them. Each day brings them nearer to the inevitable and com mission men are flooded with letters indicating that next week is the long est ihey can hold out. TWINKLINGS.

Professor Rein of Bonn university says in an exhaustive work on lacquer that "among tht many well developed branch es of Japanese art industry lacquer work undoubtedly takes first place. In no oth er have the feeling for art and artistic ability of the Japanese their free phiy of fancy aud their admirable perseverance and skill iu executing their richly figured pictures, developed earlier and more." Japanese lacquer ware is distinguished for its lightness, elegance, solidity aud the beauty aud spirit of its decoration, and principally by several valuable ele ments in tho material itself, such as great hardness, in which it excels all others, without showing brittleness or cracking, for its luster and mirrorlike surface and its . resist n nee to a number of ageucies which attack and destroy common resin ous lacquer varnish. Professor H. V. Vogel sttyH the simple black Japanese lacquered dish is proof against acid and alcohol. Hot cigar ashes or even boiling water do not affect it. It is these charac teristics which distinguish Japanese lac quers from European aud American imi tation, which are all prepared from resin ous varnishes and have none of the prop erties of the Japanese product. There is a great variety of single color Japanese lacquer ware black, red, green ish yellow, green, brown of various shades, cloudy light green, dark "green nod a variety of other shades almost too numerous to mention. There is a peculiar lacquered yellow wooden ware made in Nojiro, a small town north of Akita, near the Japan sea, that differs from all other varieties, inas much as the natural grain of the wood is clearly shown and beautifully, preserved, while usually the material used is entire ly concealed beneath the opaque coating of lacquer. This ware is of a transparent, yellow or brownish yellow color, through which the reins or spots of the wood show up under a high luster, which adds greatly to the beauty of the ware.

Jeweler's Review. Don't Be Critical. Whatever you do never set Up for a critic. We don't mean a newspaper one, but in private life, in the domestic circle, in society. It will pot do any one any good, and it will do you harm if you mind being called disagreeable. If you don't like any one's uose or object to any one's chin', don't put your feelings into words. If nny one's manners don't please you, remember your own. People are not all made to suit one taste. Recollect that. Take things as you find' them unless you can alter them. Even a dinner after it is swallowed cannot be made any better. Continual fault finding, continual criti cism of the speech of this one and the conduct of that one, tbe dress of the one and the opinions of the other, will make home the unhappiest place under the sun.
