those jvho have labored
among people whose principal arti
cle of diet is rice, •'are apt to refer
to their lukewarm converts, as “rice
Christians,” because the converts so
termed care much more for the ma
terial than the spiritual food that
the missionaries dispense. Some
thing of the same spirit animates
Christians, young and old, in this
corner of the world, particularly at
holiday time, and among the youn
ger element when Christmas trees
and gifts are in order. The story
told recently by a Sunday, school
teacher is an illustration.
A couple of weeks before Christ
mas one of the small boys in this
teacher’s class .contracted pneumo
nia and died. He was much be
loved, and his death was fplt by his
classmates and the workers in the
school. His name was on the list
for a handsome gift^at Christmas,
and the superintendent of the school
decided that it would be a graceful
thing, and the boy’s family would
doubtless appreciate the act, if the
' gift set apart for the boy were sent
, to his homo, to be given..to a youn-
thoin with PuoceHs and profit. i g er brother or disposed of as his par-

a couple of inches at the end where
it joins the fern. Scoup out the

The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100,000 copies, a rooord

voted to the discussion of political,
eoouomio, and. social problems. To the

of .political .events'-as they arise from
time to time can not fail to interest those
who study pnblio questions.
'JPhe Commoner’s regular snboription
price is $1.00 per year. We have arrang
ed with Mr, Bryan whereby we can fur

College Bred Negroes.
An inquiry into the pursuits of
college bred negroes received 1,31-2
replies. Of this number one-half
are teachers, ond-sixth preachers,
one-sixth students and professional
men, G per cent farmers, artisans
and merchants and 4 per cent in the
government service. The teachers,
if competent, are all needed, but the
number of mechanics, farmers and
trades is significantly small. The
failure to engage in trade may not
be altogether voluntary, but the dis
position to crowd the professions is
as evident as among whites and
with less chance of success.—Louis

A Widow’s Offers of Marriage.
In a mining center some eighty
miles from Coolgardie, in Western
Australia, a carpenter died, and his
widow .had offers of marriage from
the doctor who attended the de
ceased, the undertaker, the clergy
man who read the .burial service,
the local apothecary who made up
the medicines and prescribed for
the departed and the custodian of
the cemetery where he was interred;
likewise from about a score of mine
managers and miners. She did not
accept one of the suitors andjjjfle-
parted far her home in Melbourne.
A Cantilever Bridge In Alaska.
The White Pass and Yukon Rail
way company has just finished a
cantilever bridge over the White
Phss canyon 850 feet in length, with
a clear span of 240 feet, and 275
feet high above the bottom of the
canyon in the middle. The everlast
ing ice had to be quarried away for
the supports of the bridge. When
tested with the weight of a massive,
rotary snowplow and two engines
coupled together, there was a xotail
downward deflection in the middle
of the-bridge of but five-eighths of
an inch.
Health and Beauty.

A poor complexion is usually
the result of a torpid liver or ir
regular action of the bowels. Un
less nature’s refuse is carried off
it will surely cause impure'blood,
Pimples, boils and other eruptions
follow, This is nature’s method
of throwing off the poisons which
the bowels failed to remove. De-
Witt’s Little Early Risers are
world famous for remedying this
condition. They stimulate the liv
er and promote regular and heal
thy action of the bowels but never
cause griping, cramps or distress.

the medicine as directed every ten
