A Prominent Republican Politician
Brings Up in Jail.

Rodney Foos, a prominent and we'll
known Republican politician of this state,
has been arrested and put in Jail in Dem
v"r Colorado, charged with stealing
books from the library of the Methodist
University of that city, and pawning
them. Zoos was formerly secretary Of
the Republican State Executive Commit
tee, which position he held several years.
He was later elected clerk of the Supreme
Court, filling that office one term and
executive clerk to Hayes when he was
Governor. When the Democrats came
into power under Bishop, Foos opened a
law office and subsequently formed a
partnership with Attorney General Pill
lars. His law practice was inconsiderable,
and consequently he was in great fnan-
cial embarrassment. A little later on he
turned up at Washington, begging for
an office, which he failed, however, to
get, and was thenceforth lost sight of un-
til the news from Denver gave an ac-
count of his final downfall. He was ad-
dicted to Incorporate habits, and being
man of very moderate ability as a lawyer
was not able to make a living when
thrown out Of office.
Those who know him best do not at
tribute his downfall to dishonesty but to
dissipation and financial embarrassment
and the natural result of q career that
had no other purpose than the possession
of petty offices.

Worth Remembering.

Now that good times are again upon US,
before indulging in extravagant show, it
is worth remembering that no one can
enjoy the pleasantest surroundings if in
bad health. There are hundreds of mis-
cradle people going about to-day with
disordered stomach, liver or kidneys, or
a dry, hacking cough, and one foot In the
grave, when scot. bottle of Parker's
Ginger Tonic would do them more good
than all the expensive doctors and quack
medicines they have ever tried. 1t always
makes the blood pure and rich, and will
build you up and give you good health at
little cost. Read of it in another column.

Travellers meet with many
incidents as well as accidents.
They endure many hardships
as well as to share the fat OF the
Land. Once upon n time a
young man who was travelling
from the cradle to the grave,
who sought fame, fortune and
relics, the latter Of which in.
cluded a wife. In passing
through the State OF Ohio, he
accidently or otherwise heard
of the Little Dutchman In
Napoleon, Henry county, Be-
ing rather of an inquisltlve
turn of mind he began to n,
quire into the history of this
individual, when his curiosity
soon became excited and he
resolved to call upon this s elf
same person, before he got very
much nearer to his grave. He
thought that he would here find
much valuable matter whic h
would assist him in filling up
his very interesting Diary, and
sure enough he travelled not in
vain, his widest imaginatlons
were here completely over
whelmed, and he wondered that
he had not earlier heard of or
discovered this wonderful Foun-
tain where the Balm OF Life is
annually dispensed to thous,
ands. Yes, where all the very
best and most popular medi-
cines known in the entire
world are kept in their purest
states for the relief and cure OF
the afflicted and suffering, where
even the dying can be made to
feel that they have reached the
haven of rest. He not only
found here all the necessary
and proper remedies for restor-
ing the diseased and crippled
condition Of the physical body,
but he found a large stock Of
the choicest food for the brain;
that which produces thegrowth
Of the mind, viz: Books. These
were well selected and calcu-
lated for the young as we'll as
the old. And did the people
but know that to cultivate a
good healthy mind in the child,
will do more to develop agood
healthy body than all the medi-
cine in the world, they would
invest more literally in good
books for the children. And
yet, nevertheless, this is a fact
which can and has been sue
eessfully demonstrated many
times by the best scientists in
the world, This traveller was
much pleased with these two
stores in one large building be-
ing SO successfully managed for
the welfare and wellbeing Of the
human family, SO much so that
he bas concluded to make Napo-
leon his future home, where he

to interest you let me tell you an incident
connected with it.
About two months ago l went with
Mrs. Smith to purchase a new dress.
While we were In the store examining
some rich silks Mrs. Winslow came in.
She informed us of the destitute condition
of family she had just visited. The
father had been sick and unable to work !;
the mother had been toiling to support
her family. She was now sick, and three
of her children. One was lying dead in
the house. They were so poor that they
had not sufficiency of either fuel or
food, and were threatened with being
turned into the street that very day.
"Mrs. Smith asked if they were worthy
people. Mrs. Winslow assured her they
were, and giving their address she urged
Mrs. Smith to visit them. Mrs. Smith
had just decided to buy dress from a
costly piece of silk. L will not purchase
the dress now, she said to the shopman
And turning to me she remarked, | feel
it my duty to visit these people and
supply their necessities before purchas-
ing any thing for myself. Will you
accompany me?"
did so. We found the family in
great distress. They were Christian PEG.
pie, and had been praying to God to send
them help. Mrs. Smith Immediately
paid the rent, besides ordering fuel and
food. She has since sent them many
little articles of comfort. L feel better
she said, than if 1 had bought a new
dress. I will remake my old one, and
will wear it to the wedding.
And this is why Mrs. Smith wore
that old brown silk dress She is moi

The old brown silk dress will preach me
lesson of charity-charity in judgment
and charity, which is love toward the
