For a Nice Suit of Clothes. Panting, Overcoating or Fancy Vesting. Helen Gould with her own bonds was dealing out Lot coffee to frozen firemen who lind been fighting fire at the Windsor hotel. That is the sort of girl Hulen Gould is. If we nrc going to have a child of the nation, who in all the nation will not say that Helen is the sort of a child we want? If we are to talk about our child then "our Helen" is the child we want to talk about. Kindly rail nnil examine my stock of Im potted and Domestic Woolens. A tine stock to elect from.

One week $ 15 Oae month 50 One year G 00 THURSDAY AUGUST 10, 18f9 "THE CHILD OF THE NATION.' Miss Julia Dent Grant, the daugh ter of General Fred Grant, the son of Ulysses S. Grant, is to marry a continental prince of Polish extrac tion. The European press in speak ing of the approaching nuptials are -wont to refer to Miss Grant by the -would-be felicitous term of "the child of the nation." Of course this is all sentimental word play, but if it is to be indulged in why not do it with some effort to observe the fit ness of things? There is no particular reason why 3liiss Julia Dent Grant should be styled the child of the nation, 3ays the Spokesman Review. "When licr nunt Nellie married Algernon Sartons, in 1873, some of the foreign papers gave the bride a similar title and, as these fanciful notions go, it was perhaps not out of place. She -was the daughter of the president, the biggest warrior this country has produced. This fiction does not descend through families, however. It does not appear that Colonel Fred has ever done anything to warrant his daughter bcins called the child of ttie nation. When he was twelve years of age he rode into Jackson, IMiss., at the head of the federal army, but that was not nn ac complishment which should permit of titles being passed down through his descendants. The present General Grant is a good im hired, honest, heavy, fair-minded, dull, respectable, logy and uninteresting individual, who has left no imprint on American listory and who would have dropped out of sight long ago had he not occn the son of his father. Now, Miss Julia Dent Grant is a very estimable young woman, but she is not the child of the nation. The nation is not going to allow its child to mnrr n foreigner, how ever worthy he may be. If we arc to have n child of the nation why not have one deicrviiig of the title ? If the nation is to have n girl all its own, why not pick out one like Helen Gould? When Julia Dent Grant was entertaining people nt the legation in Vienna, Helen Gould was entertaining the poor little ragged outcasts of New York. When Julia Dent Grant was loitering in Hamburg with Mrs. Potter Palmer, Helen Gould was putting free beds for the sick poor into the New York hos pitals. When Julia Dent Grant was riding in liottcn How in London, Helen Gould was giving the United States government cash for the re lief of suffering soldiers at the front. 'When Julia Dent Grant was leading geraian at Newport, Helen Gould was sending cots for invalid volun teers at Montauk. When Julia Dent Grant was arranging the preliminaries for a foreign nalriuonial alliance, 'A political labor party is being started in New York. According to the speeches made nt its organiza tion it will not, ns Senator Plummer aiys, start at Omaha and end in oblivion. It will start at New York and cud in jail. The Filipinos wnnt seven millions for the Spanish prisoners they hold. This is a pretty large sum, consider ing that it is nenrly one-third of what we paid Spain for all the islands, with nil the Filipinos thrown in. A good drug sign.
