rnard about the eonnty jail last night was doubled. A. tnidnitrbt four bip officers tood H the Illinois street corner of the Rloomy bastile, while grouped in the court and alone the Dearborn and Michtpan-street ftonts were at least a dozen more euards. Several detectives were stationed i various parts of tbe buildinc, and the pedestrian wbo stopped to loiter in the deep shadows cant by the grim walls was quickly overhauled and scanned. The doomed Anarchists wr visited to-day by orty delegates who are on their wav borne from tbe Kniehts of Labor convention at Minneapolis. Tbeu visit was for the purpose of expression condolence and the hope that the Anarchists -will obtain a new trial.

Preparations for the Execution Governor Oglesby'e Position as to Commutation. t'hicaeo Special to New Tork World. The eooer judgment of nearly every person In Chicago whose opinion is worth anything is that tbe seven Anarchists in tbe county jail will be handed Nov. 11, accordine to their sentence. Some few tbiak that the Supreme Court may jrrantastay of execution pending argument, but it wonld be Lard to find one whose expectation coes further than tbat There is nothing for the Supreme Court to interfere about in the ease. Tbe best lawyers in Chicago have said so. No one but a few enthusiastic friends of the condemned men dispute it. There is trim evidence tbat the execution is certainly expected in the luiet preparations going on in the jaiL State Attorney Grinnell showed to-day what he thought about tbe result of the appeal. A thief had pleaded guilty to petit larceny and Judge Baker wan about to sentence him to the county jail for thirty days. Mr. Grinnell interposed: "In view of what is to take place in the jail Nov. 11,"' be said, "I prefer that this man's sentence should expire before tbat time, because it is desirable that as few prisoners as possible should be in the jail when such a tremendous event takes placet.'' Jndsre Baker acceded and nade the sentence fifteen days. Soon afterwards another criminal was to be sentenced, and Mr. Grinnel said: "Your Honor, I am opposed to jail sentences at the present time. If it is necessary that any prisoners should be confined, they should be kept in siation-bou6es until after the execution takes place. Nov. 11." It is understood that as many prisoners as possible wi'l be taken from the jail between now and the time of the execution. It shows tbat Mr. Grinnell is very confident that the sentence will be earried out, and the anthorities are not overture that tbe precautions tbey have taken will protect the jail from assault on that 4ay. There have been a good many executions in the Cook county jail, but it has never been thought necessary before to keep prisoners away from is t tbe time. Even tbe Anarchists themselves have no real hope tbat tbe execution of their seven friends can be prevented or delayed. George M. Sloan, the Anarchist leader whom Mayor Roche refused permission to speak on tbe execution a few daya ago, said to-day that he had given od all hope, and fully expected tbat the banging would take place. "The execution will be followed by riot and bloodshed," be said, "but it surely will take place. Tbe Supreme Court is so completely under tbe dominion of the capitalists that the judges will not dare to interfere." The only possible chaace for escape for tbe seven, besides a favorable decision from the Supreme Court, is in mercy from the Governor. Some few persons have affected to believe that at the last moment Governor Oglesby, Wbo is a tender-hearted old man, would interfere to prevent sucb a horrible event. Bat the Governor gave a clear indication to-day of bis intention to do oo sucb a thine, lie was in tbe city to welcome the Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, who are holding their annual meeting here. In the course of bis speech of welcome Gov. Oglesby made tangible allusions to the Anarchists. "Tour organization commends itself to the admiration of tbe public," said the Governor as he was bringing bis address to a close. "It is your purpose to secure your rights without force or violence." And be added significantly, "Recent events sbow that it will not do to appeal to force. Ibe man who bas been brought to want through the fatal absorption of theories, will at last find himself not potent enough to stand against tbe majesty of tbe law. There bave been cases in this fair land when hungry men with hungry wives and children at home bave listened to the flashy sentences of men who thought they could interpose themselves between the laboring people and tbe steady march of law and order and of justice. Deeds of violence followed, and all too late they found they were not potent enough to change tbe tide of affairs. We bave a system of laws handed down to ns from Great Britain and our own land for nearly one thousand years. Out of this system bas grown a code based on tbe good sense and justice of tbe world. Who shall say that we, in a day, in a week or in a year shall decide these are wrong and shall dare to set them aside? Appeals to tbe justice of tbe people will always, in the end, result in justice, but violence and tbe outrage of tbe laws and of justiee will meet with inevitable punishment." Every one of these pointed sentences was received with ringing cheers and great enthusiasm. The speech was taken as a plain declaration tbat the Anarchists need hope for no mercy from tbe Governor. A few minutes afterward tbe temper of the audience was again shown when it cheered to the eeho the speech of Chief Arthur denonncing speciScally bombthrowers and those who sought to overthrow society by force.

MATTERS AT THE CAPITAL

The Interstate Commission Makes an Order in Favor of Cattle-Shippers. Facts and Fipures from the Annual Report of the Governor of Dakota The Territory's Frorres3 and Lare Population. BIGHTS OF SHIPPERS. The Interstate Commission Ordere that Proper Facilities lie Extended. Washington. Oct 21. The Interstate-commerce Commission to-day rendered a decision in the case of Keith & Wilson, live-stock dealers at Covington, Ky., against the Kentucky Central, the Louisville & Nashville, and the Pittsburg, Cincinnati & St Louis railroad companies. In this case it is alleged that the railroad companies against which complaint is made bave denied, and continue to deny and refuse to Keith & Wilson, complainants, reasonable and proper facilities for receiving and forwarding live stock ever their lines, and that they subject Keith & Wilson to the payment of terminal and discriminating charges not imposed on other shippers of alike kind of property. The com mission decide that until the railroad companies provide some suitable and convenient place at Covington where tbe complainants may ship and receive live stock free from other than the customary transportation charges, the defendants should be, and shall be, required to receive from, and deliver to, comolainant's live stock at their own yards. The commission decide however, so that this order may conform to tbe final determination of a suit now pending in the Supreme Court of the United States, between Keith & Wilson and these roads, that leave will be given to either of the parties to tbe proceeding to apply for a modification of the commission's order at any time after the determination of such case in the Supreme Court DAKOTA TERRITORY. Annual Report of Governor ChurchGrowth and Prosperity of the Territory. Washington, Oct 2L L. K. Church, Governor of Dakota, in his annual report, Bays the Territory has bad another year of wonderful growth in population and wealth, due to extensions of railroad lines into rich agricultural and mineral regions. Twenty-three million eight hundred and eleven thousand four hundred and forty-five acres of public land remain unoccupied. During the past six years over two million acres of Dakota lands bave been entered; the population of the Territory is estimated at 508,477, an increase of 66,000 during the year; the assessment of property in tbe Territory is $157,034,365, an increase of nearly $25,000,000 during tbe year; the bonded indebtedness of the Territory is $1,093,600; the area of sown wheat this season is estimated at 3.809,389 acres and the yield at 60,000.000 bushels, nearly double the product of last year; tbe value of live stock m the Territory is $42,828,338, an increase of $500,000 per year for seven years. The growth of educational facilities bas more than kept pace with the grewth of population. As to tbe admission of Dakota as a State, the Governor says deep interest is taken in the question of division and admission, and whether admitted as one or two States, there are many reasons why the people should not be longer deprived of the right to manage their own affairs. He does not express himself as having a preference in tbe matter. He indorses tbe Dawes Sioux reservation bill, and asks for the appointment of additional judges. MINOR MATTERS. The Military Instructed to Restore Peace and Order on the Crow Reservation. Washington, Oct 21. Some days ago the Secretary of the Interior received a telegraphic report from Inspector Armstrong, on the Crow Indian reservation, in Montana, stating that the details of the tronble as reported by Special Agent Howard were substantially correct, and urging tbe immediate arrest of the "medicine man" and his seventeen lawless followers as absolutely necessary to prevent tbe demoralization of the whole tribe. Acting upon this information and tbe suggestion of Inspector Armstrong, the Secretary urgently requested the War Department to take prompt action to carry out tbe recommendation of tbe inspector, and in reply was furnished with a copy of a telegram from General Terry, stating tbat General Sheridan, while at St Paul, bad directed General Ruger to go to Ft Custer and the Crow agency, and to give personal attention to the direction of matters there. A subsequent telegram from Inspector Armstrong, urging immediate action on the part of the military, was referred to the Secretary of War. who to-day notified Secretary Lamar tbat the military bad been instructed to to take such action as would prevent an outbreak and restore peace and quiet on the reservation. ; Indiana Pensions.

Those Queer "Promotion Examinations." Washington Special. The expensive, dishonest, and ineffective "examinations for promotions." so called, have been resumed, and this week they will be finished up so far as the War Department is concerned. The sentiment against these examinations is becoming so strong tbat it is believed tbey will be discontinued before long. At present they merely make tbe clerks a great deal of unnecessary trouble ard worry: consume much time which might be better employed: cost a good deal of money, and result in hardly any practical advantage at all. It is said that the Civil-service Commissioners are becomnig alarmed at tbe large outlay of money rendered necessary by these examinations, for stationery, etc, and foresee a deficiency in the appropriation on this account, which they fear Congress may not be disposed to make good. Politics and Office-Holding. Washington, Oct 21. Civil-service Commissioner Edgerton to day returns to the attack in regard to tbe interpretation of the civil-service law, and says tbat clerks of both parties can band together, contribute for political purposes, and that members of such political organizations are eligible to appointment as members of examining boards. ' These views are in direct conflict with those expressed by Mr. Oberly. Mr. EJgerton fully expects the President to sustain blm. The general belief here is that Commissioner Lyman will side with Mr. Oberly. thus leaving Mr. Edgerton in a minority. A Rook to Room General Sheridan. Washington Special. A friend of General Sheridan says that the public need not be surprised before long to see a book on the war issued which; while not apparently intended for that purpose, will be used as a means of setting on foot a campaign for the Republican presidential nomination. It is not understood that General Sheridan is a party to this movement, or tbat he even knows that such a plan is in contemplation, but the book is far advancedand is under the immediate auspices of a rich Western Republican who takes a very active interest in national politics. Receptien to an English Temperance Worker. New York, Oct 21. The National Temperance Society gave a teception yesterday afternoon to John Taylor, president of the National Temperance league of Ureal Britain. Mr. Taylor said that, in England, thirty years ago, tbe advocates of temperance could have been'

conn ted on one's fingers. To-day the liquor-

question is one of intense interest there, and practical temperance is pnmiDK groona oauy. Resolutions were passed deploring the organized and determined assault upon the Sabbath heinir made bv the brewers, distillers and lienor sellers nnder the guise of the Personal Liberty League, to keep the saloons open on Sunday, and exhorting all good citizens to oppose legislative candidates in sympathy with Sunday saloon opening. THE FARCE OF PROHIBITION. How the Prohibitory Lew Works In Atlanta A City of Free Whisky. F. D. M.'s Atlanta Letter. As my tribute to the practical workineof legal and arbitrary prohibition in Atlanta, I can truthfullv say that I never before saw so Cinch promiscuous drinking and drunkenness as I have seen in Atlanta during the last three days. I am sure every Northern newspaper correspondent will indorse me in this statement so far as their individual experience is concerned. There is not a city in the United States in which the sale of whisky is more open and pub lic than right here. There are various devices to cover it but they are so open and transparent that tbey are laughed at There are one hundred and fiftysix saloons in Atlanta in which whisky is sold openly and very bad whisky it is. All this is done under a cloak of hypocrisy. Prohibition is hypocrisy, anyway, and never more luridly shown up than in this stagger at it . You can walk into any saloon in Atlanta ana ask for "nerve tonic," ard you will be promptly furnished with a big glass of whisky. Beer is sold without restraint Outside of a saloon at the Markham House end of the railroad station bave been seen every morning from fifteen to twenty barrels of empty beer bottles, as a result of tbe twenty-four hours preceding. Upon the left side of the street as you walk up to the artesian well from the Kimball House are three saloons, where you can get all tbe redeye and poison yon crave. The law forbids the sale of "malt beer," so you can buy all the "rice" beer you are anxious for, which is made in "Charleston."' The fact is it is regular old "beer," and is made to a great extent by Christian Moerlein, of Cincinnati In the Kimball House the bar is open, and behind it is a big sign "Rice Beer; non-intoxicating," and half a dozen bar-keepers are jumping to serve the crowd with regular old laser beer, delivered by the bottle. While whisky does not appear openly, except in its effects, in the Kimball House, it is not the less a fact tbat it is served to its gnests in enormous quantities. Fifteen or twenty bell-boys ar kept running to the rooms of guests with white paper parcels containing pint and qnart bottles of whisky, and there is a busy industry in the lower regions of tbe bouse in preparing the pint and quart flasks for the demand. What the eale of "rice beer" and whisky bas been in the Kimball House alone during the visit of President Cleveland it would be hard to calculate, and if the statement of the number of gallotis could be given, it would be received with incredulity. Close to the Kimball House is a saloon which used to be famous as the "Big Bonanza." There is also the "New Era," and further up. at the corner, Beerman's "Soda-water" place. There is also another place in the line, in front of which is the sign, "Quart bottles of wine for sale." In any of those places you can buy any liquor you desire in any quantity you please. In and out of these places for the last three days and nights, at all hours, bave been staggering drunken men, with months full of ribald profanity and obscenity, and, meanwhile, the total prohibition law is on the statute books and is flourishing wonderfully. The barkeepers and proprietors of the gin-mills in Atlanta are reaping a golden harvest under the present iaws, which lets them out from paying any license and-at tbe same time leaves them a loop hole tbrout u which to sell oceans of beer and whisky. If ybu go into one of tbeae places and very elegant they are in furniture and bar appointments you will see a sign in one place reading thus: "Rice beer, non-alcoholic." and another like this: "Nerve tonic, non-alcoholic." And yet when you order you will find that the first is straight Cincinnati beer and tbe second a redhot specimen of straight sour mash or rye whisky, as you may elect "In tbe "Big Bonanza" the genial host stands behind a great punch bowl filled with whisky. When you ask for a little "nerve tonic" be takes a tumbler, dips it full of the "nerve tonic" in tbe bowl and" sets it on the counter, accompanied by the . usual glass of -water. You take your drink, pay your fifteen cents and get out If you don't get out, a policeman will help you out and go back for a drink. This morning I took a stroll about town in company with Mr. Paul Wolff, a well-known Washington correspondent Tbe street from tbe Kimball House up to the artesian well was full of drunken people, and all the saloons crowded and uproarious. At the corner we saw a pitiful sight. It was a twelve or thirteen-year-old boy trying to get his drunken father home. The small boy was manfully trying to support and quiet his father one one side, while a sympathetic citizen was helping to bold up on the other. Mr. Wolff and I strolled across the city to the new Capitol building, and down Washington street past the handsome residence of Mr. Julius Brown, and near there we oaw another illustration of the beauties of prohibition as a coercive measure in Atlanta or anywhere else. This time the case was reversed, and we saw an Id gentleman bring home his son, a handsome young man of twenty-two or three, eo intoxicated tbat it took tbe father oi one side and the coachman on the other to wlk the young man up to the handsome house in which they disappeared, while Mr. Wolff and I looked on. I do not know which was the more pitiable sight, the son taking home tbe drunken father, or the old father taking home bis drunken son. In any of the numerous saloons the "nerve tonic'' is sold in quart bottles to any extent and to anybody, black or white, who has the money to pay for it Upon each bottle is a label with this inscription, "Southern nerve tonic, highly recommended for all kinds of nervous diseases, non-alcoholic driDk. Dose, one wine glass full before eash meal, or more, as occasion may require. Made by the Southern Nerve Tonic Company, Atlanta, Ga," Now, this "nerve tonic" is nothing but straight Atlanta w'-r or blended whisky of a bad charcter made ia Kentucky and in and about Cincinnati. This is an unprejudiced and truthful account of how prohibition is working in a city where popular sentiment is against it in spite of the face of the vote tbat carried it Mr. Cleveland's coming and going called attention to this matter, and I have given nothing in regard to it that every observant visitor to Atlanta will not readily substantiate as simply the truth.

This is something which can only be safely decided by common sense and experience. Two questions can be safely asked in connection with the purchase of a new implement, and if they can be answered affirmatively the purchase ought to be consummated if at all possiole. One of these questions is will it perceptibly improve the product? The otherwill it cheapen production? A convenient vessel for the fowls to drink out of is made by sawing off about six inches of the top of a nail keg and setting a common washbasin in it The rim of the basin just laps over the edge of tbe keg. and the contrivance is elevated enough to keep the fowls from scratching dirt into the water.

ILLINOIS. The Dempsey Divorce Case Peculiar Features Connected with the Litigation. Marion, Oct. 21. Judge St John announced his decision in the Circuit Court, yesterday, in the Dempsey divorce case. There are some peculiar features attached to the case. In 18S4, while Mrs. Mara Woodworth's combination wac in the zenith of its notoriety, and was campaigning against Satan in this and adjoining counties, Thomas Dempsey, who acted as business manager or financial agent found time apart from his spiritual and worldly duties to engage tbe affections of Ida, the fifteen-year-old daughter of J. N". Wheeler, of Fairmount township. After a good deal of resistance Miss Wheeler was finally persuaded into an alliance with the evangelistic tramp, and a marriage was contracted without her parents' knowledge or consent The young wife followed her husband's fortunes for over two years, enduring cruelty and neglect At last, at Muncie, a little over a year ago, the situation became unbearable, and Mrs. Dempsey left and returned to her father's bouse. When she returned home she took with 'her about $75 worth of household articles. Dempsey executed a bill of sale for these articles to his brother, Richard, and tbe latter brought a replevin suit to recover them. The jury, after being out a short time returned a verdict for Mrs. Dempsey.

The startline discovery was recently made that the roof of the Warren-avenue Baptist Church, in Boston, had not been properly constructed, and was in danger of falling at any time. The Sole support for the roof of the great building consists of three iron rods one and onehalf inches in diameter. It is said tbat it will cost nearly $200,000 to repair the church, which is one of tbe lareest in town. Every day's investigation into the case of P. R. Wurman, superintendent of the Cincinnati Commercial Agency, who disappeared mysteri 'tisly last Sunday and has not yet been heard from, goes to show that tbe first story of the affair was a hiehly colored sensation. The opening of the office eafe by experts yesterday revealed nothing, and thus far all the claims aeainst Mr. Warman presented to the receiver are less than $600. Nothing whatever is known of Warman's whereabouts. The House Beautiful. New Tork Commercial Advertiser. Furniture en suite is a relic of barbarism. Stained glass is very beautiful, bat imitation stained glass is an aDomination. The stork, the "cat-tail" and the sunflower are three things which have had their day in household art Cut flowers about a room in winter are now considered rather tasteless decorations. Growing palm3, ferns and tbe like bave taken tbeir places. A revival of an old fashion is seen in the use of wax candles instead of gas. to furnish the light on festival occasions. They give a soft light, which is very much pleasanter than the gas jet's glare. In handsome rooms the heavier pieces of furniture, including pianos, organs, book-eases and the like are now always made under the supervision of tbe architect of tbe house, and made to seem an inalienable part of it The newest lamp shades are made of iron, with a lining of cathedral glass; the iron frame is fanciful in design, with graceful lines covering the glass, or bands of iron simply clasnine in a dainty fashion the panels of color, through which a strong light pours with exquisite beauty. In handsome houses, carpets on the floors are considered almost" as much a relic of barbarism as would be rushes strewn upon them. The proper floor must be of hardwood, or a colorable imitation thereof, scantily covered with rich rugs. The fad has much to recommend it Mantels in really well-built houses should not require mantelboards or lambrequins. These were originally devised ony to hide hidenusness of the mantel in the ordinary "contract built" house. A well-designed mantel looks better without them, and tbey are tbe worst of dustcatcbers. , Steam heat is a boon, but steam heaters are horribly u-gly in handsome rooms. All sorts of devices bave been used to conceal them, but the "heater" shows through almost ail. The best is a cabinet for books or bric-a brae, so shaped that its hollow back will completely cover the unsightly array of metal tubes. A pretty screen for the lamp can be made from a small fan by attaching a long piece of wire at the top. bending it over to keep in place upon the chimney; then take a tiny buuch of ostrich tips, a bunch of artificial flowers, or pressed sea mosses, attach to the center of the fan, and hold in place by a bit of bright ribbon. Large rooms are always bar and inhospitablelooking in private houses. The "parlor of the period" is a thing of tbe past It should be broken up always by screens, masses of plants, and othr devices, into a number of sma.'i nooks and corners, each of which should have its own dominant note and central point of ornamentation. Nails with ornamental heads of brass, iron or rough copper, are much used in interior decoration, often for apparently holding in place the heavy wall papers which simulate stamped leather, and such materials. They can be used liberally, with good effect, by observing the rule of never putting a nail where it does not seem to serve, as a nail, some useful purpose. Mock Turtle Soup. Take a calf's head with the skin on, split the skull, remove the brains, put the head in cold water and let soak one hour. Then wash it thoroughly to get rid of all the blood, put it in the kettle, cover it with cold water and let it simmer gently for an hour, removing the scum as it rises. Then lift it from the kettle, and when it is cool cut the meat from tbe bones into pieces about an inch square. The skin, which is the beat part of it, and the nnderlying fat must be carefully preserved, and also the brains and tongue. Cut the skin and fat into dice, and put them, along with the broth, into a bowl. Now, take a skillet and fry in it two or three chopped onions; when they get brown, add three or four pounds of veal and lean beef, and cover them with the broth. Put in two or three fresh carrots and turnips, a bunch of savory, thyme, marjoram and parsley, some allspice and whole black nerper. and the bones and trimmings of the bead, and let all stew gently for three hours. Then take it off the fire and strain it through a tamis, and you have the stock. For the tbe thickening, put a piece of butter tbe size of an see into a saucepan, and as it melts mix in the same quantity of flour, stirring well. Then stir into it enough of the stock to make the desired quantity of soup, and a little of the meat, a squeeze of lemon-juice, and the yolks of three hard-boiled eggs, mashed, and put it where it will simmer very slowly for an hour. While this is cooking, take the brains, mix them with bread-crumbs and egg, shape them into balls, and fry them brown and drop them into the soup. A squeeze of lemon juice over each plateful improves it for many tastes, as does a little Madeira wine. Tbe old lady who, when dying and almost speechless, beckoned her daughter to bend over her to receive her final messages, and murmured with her last breath, 'A1 wavs keep the kettle full of hot water," is no subject of ridicnlefor housewives. Most of them have been in extremities where her course seemed to them entirely natnrai. To be in a hurry for the cupful of boiling water that is needed for a certain disb, only to find the kettle dry, is a tax upon the patience that is hard to meet. Insisting that the kettle must never be placed upon tbe stove unless filled, and examination into the matter on every visit to the kitchen, are the onlv remedies for tbe tronble.

Philosophers say that affairs should always

be conducted with a view to the greatest good of the greatest number. Dr. Bull's Cough Syruo has demonstrated itself to be of the greatest good to tbe greatest number of sufferers. CROSS EYES. Their Cause and Cure. BY Dr. BARKER, the Oculist & Aurist. Beautiful eyes are an ornament to tbe countenance: and any deformity, no matter how slight, not only mars, but makes a lasting impression upon tbe disposition and development of the individual. The remarks of the rude and thoughtless are among the earliest and most painful recollections of these unfortunates. In many instances they become so morbidly sensitive that the mention of cross eyes to them is almost torture. Nor is tie appearance alone concerned in this defect; but the functions of the eye also suffer to such an extent that one eye is nearly blind and the other weak. A cure, then, involves restoration of sight, as well as personal aooearance. KINDS AND CAUSES." There are seven kinds of cross eyes, which may be produced from various causes, among tbe most common are children imitating those whose eyes are turned, looking at the nose, paralysis of an ocular muscle, sore eyes badly treated, measles, fevers, whooping-coujjh, teething, worms, stys, injury, nearsight, oversight, etc., etc., or they may be congenital (from birth). BEST TIME TO BE CURED. Crossfeyes ean be cured at any age, but the improvement in sight is not so great in middle-age as ia youth. Children born with this deformity should be treated as soon after dentation as possible. In youth, the squint is not fully established usually but one eye is at fault binoeular vision is more easily established, the measuring power of distances and dimensions is not destroyed; besides the teudency to make the child cross, shy, bashful or vicious, is obviated, and the impediment to proper education, for want of vision, is removed by curing while young. TUE TREATMENT. The theory of curing cross eyes, as taught in the schools and practised by oculists generally. is the same throughout the country. But few oculists are able to measure the degree and direction of the squint, hence it is that they "cut and try," and the attempt to cure ofteu proves futile, without a second or third operation, which, if anvthing. is more complicated than the first. We wish to call attention to our NEW AND PAINLESS METHOD of treating this deformity. It is done at one sitting, in a minute or two, and requires no confinement, bandaging or after treatment. The patient eaa re-' turn home at once positively cured. Without egotism or bombast, we believe that we cure more cross-eyes in a month than the average oculist sees in a year. As evidence of our success, we append the names of a few of the hundreds of our patrons as REFERENCES, who are so easy of access that those interested can see for themselves what our patrons say after the lapse of a year.
