Mr. Will Bronaugh is wearing glasses, he says his trouble has he gun, before the marriage ceremony is announced, madam rumor says it will take place in June. I would like to have the privilege of answering the deacon from Mace donian, when he asked why his church was not invited to take place in the Union services with the A. M. E., the M. E. and Second Baptist on Decora tion day, my answer in part would be thus: These three churches are work ing for the advancement of the race, and we are using every effort to Btamp out immorality. We cannot say this of the Macedonian, take Mrs. Florence Chrlsman and daughter from the Macedonian, and nothing but Im morality and vice will be left, and as long as this church has such a corrupt preacher as the one they have and as long as he continues to buggy ride with the Pool girl so long it will re main to its self and not be recognized by the other three churches. Tho Pools could not lead in the Second Baptist church Is why they left and organized the Macedonian, being cor rupt themselves, of course they could not get any joiners but corrupt ones. for It Reaches More KANSAS CITY MO.; So they took only two moral members, the ones I mentioned. The Second Baptist is marching on to victory. The Rising Son says some of tho teachers In K. C. are corrupt, I say the same about the Macedonian. THE NEW PYTHIAN HOME.

Glosslne, queen of all hair tonics Is the most wonderful remedy for tho human hair ever discovered and has astounded the whole world by its mi raculous and mysterious power in lengthening, straightening and beauti fying the human hair. It is the result of long years of careful study and tho earnest researches of Miss Helen Mar tin, a beautiful and attractive woman who is acknowledged to be the most skilful and famous beauty doctor of the day. She Is a wonderful and most magni ficent specimen of womanly grace and beauty, and although now "8 years of age she scarcely looks to be Hn. When j nsked by what mediums she had been able to so successfully preserve the attractiveness and beauty of youth. Miss Martin said, Why it Is very sim ple to me and every woman be she i wni, or to1"'''''!, young or old or us UK,V "s Km 1,st'lf ru bi'come pretty, shapely and graceful If she will only do as I advise. As a child I was never considered pretty, In fact 1 was not even thought to be good looking and for this very reason ever since I was a girl of sixteen I havo made a study of such agencies and materials which Uml to beautify and adorn the human person. In the glorious vegetable world which nature has so bounteously be stowed upon us there are hundreds of innocent mediums which after my long ! life "f 8,ll(ly nn'1 llm'HtiKlltl)" lav been aide to successfully blend and formulate into various preparations which enchnnce and preserve tho life and beauty of tho hair and skin. I owe my own good looks nnd youthful appearance to these preparations which urc" the results of my life long work. As to Glosslne I have never known It to fail to cause the hair to grow long, straight, soft and luxurious. It mat ters not bow harsh or kinky it may be and I care not. If It. be short broken, splitting at tho ends or fallng out Glosslne will positively make It soft, straight and pliant. It will give to the hair lustre, length, life and beauty and no head of hair can be so harsh nnd refractory but. that Gloslne will make it so pliant and wavy that. It can ho dressed with ease and in any prevail ing style desired. It will restore gray hair to Its for mer color, make the hair grow out on all halil spots, ami on tho temples when the hair Is usual y (bin and un sightly. Glosslne is highly, sweetly and most delicately perfumed, and Its color nnd siibslslency Is very at Trac tive to all. Seeing our great success and with the desire to (rude upon our reputation gained by long years of honest dealing nuiivrous unscrupu lous firms art trying to fool the pen pie into buying spurious ami harm- decided to give a full sized package of Glosslne to any render of this paper male or female who will send their name and address.

Who will appear In Kansas City some time during this summer. The following furnishes rich commendation as to her worth in her chosen line of work. Miss Tooley will lie assisted by Miss Nora 1 loiiglass 1 the brilliant young pianist of the Prof. N. Clark Smith Studio of Chicago. Five years ago .Miss Lillian Tooley, of Missouri, came to the Anna Morgan Studios, XL.". Fine Arts llullding. il cago, III., as attendant. During the first two years of her service lu (he Studios she recognized the value or the work taught there and the benefits to be derived, and quietly began to acquire, mostly through her keen ob servation of I lie teaeliers, pupils ami their work, a knowledge of the art of reciting. On Wednesday evening, May the Mb, Miss Morgan, Hie founder and direc tor of the Studios tendered her a tes timonial recital which was largely at tended hy the patrons and friends of tho Studios. It was a pleasant sur prise to all present to see bow much of the truth in the art of expression Miss Lillian has aeqiilreil, ami her program was a varied and entertain ing one. During the past year she has had a number of engagements la nnd about Chicago ami in Indiana. Last summer Miss Tooley gave thirty five recitals in Missouri, and has many return dates for the ruining season. Her friends all join in w ishing In r the success hhe so richly deserves. Miss Morgan's Introduction was full of praise ami coinmemlat Ion, not only of her artistic ability as a reader but of her sweet oml amiable disposition which has won many friends for her during her five years of association In this Studio. The closing remarks made by Miss Tooley expressing her gnil it mli' to Miss Morgan ami the teaeliers were deeply fell by all present. On this occasion Miss Tooley wan the recipient, of many tokens of ap preciation In the form of words of commendation, flowers, checks, etc. TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Miss Lilly Tooley is perfectly quali fied to give a complete program of recitations, monologues and songs, und does not require the services of any assisting artists aside from her ac companist. I heartily recommend her to church es ami clubs who desire an entertain incut. She Is sure to please. ANNA MORGAN, Founder and Director The Anna Mor gan School of Expression. Fancy Prices for Relics.

NUMBER i HAD TO HAVE EXERCISE. And He Got It By Bumping Into tha Fighting Editor. Thud, clatter, hrruinp! The editor looked up from the con genial task of spoiling someone else's story. "Sometimes," be said, "I feel sorry for spring poets." Ho blue-penciled nnntber half col umn Into silent nothingness, and panned again to linrk to the sounds of utrlfn coming from the next room. "It seems to me," be said, "that tneso squeals are in some wise ta miliar to mine ears." He telephoned a "stop" message in to the lighting editor's den. and tho next moment that heated and dusty functionary nppi a red leading a bat tered wreck by the car. "This Is the fourth llnin lie's been up this week," aid the man of mus cle. "Can't I nnish him?" The editor held up a merciful hand. Then In a kind ami tender voice ho spoke to the poet. "Why have you returned four times?" he asked. "Most of your brethren find oncn enough." "My doctor tells n.e I must get some violent exercise," the poet said, "and this la the only way I can af ford to take It." linden Answers. Duty of a Gentleman. On one occasion, having returned from playing poker at the club, my grandfather said : "When n man Ih hnrd up he should borrow; but he must devote his en ergies to paying back and remaining the equal of the man from whom he lias borrowed. If he cannot pay back, let him be (rank iiIkhiI it; for it is better to steal than to cheat." And again: "To ride straight and to shoot Ftralght, to win money cheerfully and to lose It cheerfully, never to be boor ishly In debt or swinishly drunk, to enjoy Mowers and music, ami If pos sible to be In love with at least oim good woman, Is half the duty of u gen tleman." "What's the other half, grandpa?" I had asked Mm. "Why, to be n gent lemon, of course." Gouverneiir Morris. The People's Schooli. The schooU belong to tho people, and will bo what the people make them. It fl n mistake to suppose that school oMIcet'H and teachers aro tht only ones that have to do with the making of the schools. Tho peoplo set tho pace for the tenchers and school otllcers. If a school officer does not meet tho Ideals of the people he Is turned out at the 11 1st elect loll. If a teacher does not meet the bbvila Oi thn peoplo tho teacher Is quickly reached through the school otllcers. So It gets back to the pcopln In the cnil. The man that thinks the schools are not good enough should set him self about having them Improved. It Is astonishing how much one person can do to Improve the schools when ho sets himself about It.
