The country has heard the lusty shout
'0rurn the racals out" by which is to, be
understood q Willingness on the partoi
Democrats to serve their country fora'con'
s;deration. The country has heard another
ory-"Giys us, q ehanse!" from which Is
to Be inferred the desire Of the Democratic
party to be changed into a party 'ot Office
and power, l o'H
Itamay' be that there are yoter3of r no1

10 give the Democrats q chance out o.
oicuriosity, to See what they would do with

almost a quarter OF a century 1t has beheld

let's see whether it hes learned enough te

Harptrs Weekly discusses in this very
f5rclble manner the idea Of a change:
The desire OF change Is not sLrong Ia q time
o~tgeneral occupation, prosperity, and conse'
0uept contentment. Should there be apanit
and business c~onyulsion within a year, the
dominant party would be thrown out as the

1910. But should there be general business
tranquility, mills running, labor employed

Iben change would have q suspicious and
not a seductive sound. IL would mean,
among other things, = clean sweep OF the
civil service, a vast cloud OF oormoranis set
Ting uson Washington and every chitl
centre Of patronage in the country, and
eIectually blocking the whole machiaeiy Of
government at the very moment that us con

This alone would alarm the true cor

chance, also, would be supposed 10 extend TO

hope Of the Democracy Lies, therefore, In nd.

simply "theo etical" to argue that because
the desire OF change Is q powerful factor Ia

overthrow q party OF the most patriotic and

country Is prosperous and content, In order
to replace It with one whose past conduct Is

A Dogs Tail as a Telegraph.

Last week when a student who rooms
in one of the downtown blocks was
coming out of his room, he was stopped
by the excited tenant of the room next
to his, who wanted to know if he kept
a telegraphic instrument in his room.
On being answered in the negative the
aforementioned tenant became still
more excited, and told long story
about hearing some one telegraphing,
apparently inside the wall. He had
noticed it several times, and, being
somewhat of an operator, had even
made out to read parts of the message,
but could make no sense of them, as
they were evidently in cipher. Conse-
quently he was beginning to have Wis
ions of internal machines, and was
scraping together in his memory the
various Irish agitators of whom he had
expressed an unfavorable opinion, for
the purpose of having them bound over
to keep the peace; also, he was about
to order coffin Immediately, in which
to keep the pieces when the machine
went off The student, when the man
had got far enough along in his story
to propose visit to the nearest life in
surance office, remarked that there
was only one explanation for the curl
GUS phenomenon-his chum kept dog
which was in the habit of lying in the
corner of the room near the wall, and
the wagging of his tail against the foot
board probably produced the mysteri-
Gus noise. The order for the coffin
has been cancelled and the insurance
agent has lost customer, while the
badly frightened tenant is congratula-
ting himself on being the only telegraph
operator who has ever succeeded in
reading the wagging of a dogs tail

A False Impression.

A Detroiter who was taking newly
arrived Englishman around town the
other day happened to pass carpenter
shop, and the Englishman remarked
that he had always heard that Ameri-
can workmen were rather slovenly and
careless.
"We will go in and see," was the
reply, and they entered and sat down
to wait for the boss. The carpenter
was using his brace and bit to bore
holes in frame of some sort, and after
each hole was bored he had to insert
wooden wedge. When he had bored
hole he would walk off two feet and
hang up his brace, which would be
wanted again in about two minutes.
After whiting out each wedge he would
turn and place his knife on shelf, and
every time he wanted his hammer it
was on the bench six feet away.
''Ah! l find l was sadly mistaken"
said the Englishman, as they finally
departed. "Why, that man had as
much order and system as any work
man L ever saw in England. He must
have occupied four-ffths of his time
walking back and forth for and with his
tools"
Eyes, he was working by the day,
you see!'' explained the citizen as they
walked on.-Detro1 Free Press.

we highly prize, has long been yielding.
more and more to the temptations of
the cup. We had observed it with
great regret, but being man of great
independence of character, his friends
generally felt that no words of warning
would avail anything. Among his
household is a beautiful daughter of
eighteen summers, who was alarmed at
the danger her beloved father was in,
and who determined to rescue him if
possible. Last September, Just after
his departure from home, she wrote
him this affectionate letter:
"MY DARLING PAPA: have thought of you
almost every moment since you left home.
and If you love me as love you. you will sign
this pledge and keep it, If your stomach feels
bad, get the doctor to give you something.
"With all my love, CORA"
soemnly promise my daughter, Cora, that
will not drink one drop of anything intoxi-
eating for one year, except as medicine when
ordered by physician.
Please sign this as soon as read.
No sooner did the father receive this
touching appeal than he signed it and
returned it to his daughter. We re-
ceived call from him a few days since
at the Tribune Office. His face fairly
shone, and tears of joy came to all eyes
as he narrated his wonderful delivery
from the rum demon. He showed with
unspeakable pride the letter of his
daughter, who loved much and accom-
plished so much by her love.--IoaOGi

She always said; In Heaven, 1 knoW;'
And told us we could go to him.

Relics Of Recent Old Times.

Charles j. Huse, of West Dresden,
Me-, while excavating for cellar for ~
house, opened what seemed to be an old
cellar. In one corner and below the
bottom of the original cellar, he found
deeply embedded in the soil a small
iron box, the contents of which are of
some value and quite curious. Among
the articles was gold cross curiously
engraved and with Latin inscription.
There are two Spanish dollars, one
American dollar dated 1904, a number
of English and American copper coins
prior to 1901, and some papers which
are so much decayed that nothing can
be deciphered. There is also very curl
ously wrought gold ring, somewhat
blackened, but still very beautiful, and
a few small silver and copper foreign
coins. Boston Globe.

The Medical Profession and Alcohol.

James L. Perryman, A. NJ, NJ. D.,
in suggestive article upon "The De-
structive Effects of Alcohol" writes:
My own observation in reference to
the influence that the physician has for
veal or woe upon human society leads
me to conclude that every one of them
who can be won over to the side of
Temperance is as great an auxiliary to
this cause as he is useful and powerful
in staying the ravages of disease. The
writer has known number of melan-
choly instances where drunkenness and
premature death were brought about by
the prescription, example and advice of
the physician. These cases that 1 re-
fer to were young gentlemen of a
high order of ability, endowed with
every manly attribute, with bright
prospects for the future, also of honor
able parentage, but step by step they
were allured to their doom by this fell
destroyer, dissipation, and at last filed
drunkard's graves. One case that was
of peculiar interest was that of young
man who had never drank in his life
until he was stricken down with ty-
phoid pneumonia and his physician pre-
scrbed for him whisky and wine. He
slowly recovered, but when fully con-
valescent it was seen by his friends that
the liquor which had been pre-
scribed for him had aroused that
demon of drunkenness that had
slumbered in his system for quarter of
a century. He then became the most
confirmed sot that 1 ever knew, and
died in a fit of delirium tremens. And
1 will venture this assertion, without
the fear of successful contradictions:
that there is not a practicing physician
of any responsibility who has not seen
many such cases. When we reflect,
then, upon the grave responsibility
that rests upon the good physician, it is
enough to startle him when he thinks
of the almost innumerable caravan of
fellowbeings that moves every year ito
the pale realms of shade through
drunkenness and dissipation, many of
whom perhaps might have been saved
if the physicians in every community in
the civilized world had been sufficiently
aroused to the deadly influence of alco-
holic stimulants.n
