OUR TICKET.

BEFORE the Virginian was per-
chased there we're some gentlemen
of the legal profession, and some OF
the same profession who do not
practice law, who agreed to give
all the legal advertisements tothat
paper which they can control.
1t is we'll to remark that the
ESTATES, and not the lawyer com
miSsi0nerS, pay for these advertise
ments.
We have more subscribers, bona
fde, than all the secular papers in
this county combined.
Within the next four weeks we
intend to enlarge this paper four
columns, without change of form.
We now advertise to insert all
legal and sale advertisements, not
exceeding three squares, for $3.50
cash and matter in excess, in the
same proportion.
If we must have ring rule here,
let us have the cheapest with the
largest circulation.
Come and look at our subscrip-
ton list and the papers sent out
from the office.

what might be of comparatively
little effect when alleged by infuen-
tial Christian journals, against an
irreligious man Of the world, is
probably fatal when alleged against
him. And in this case, it must be
remembered, the main facts are
admitted and fully established.
The final truth is that the only
chance Of Democratic success in
the present campaign lies in the
course indicated by the Indepen-
dent. The withdrawal of Cleveland
and the substitution Of Allen G..
Thurman's name on the Democratic
ticket would make sure a victory
that otherwise is hOpelessly thrown
away.

EXTRACTS from two Democratic
papers which recognize the gravity
of the situation are printed in
another column. The Dubuque
Telegraph, the most influential
Democratic journal published in
Iowa, demands the unconditional
withdrawal of Mr.. Cleveland from
the presidential field, while the
Macon Telegraph, the ablest organ
of the Georgia Democracy, foresees
nothing but defeat as the result
of the present campaign. Such
statements from leading Demo
cratic papers are striking proofs
of the decentralization and collapse
which have overtaken the party in
the middle of the campaign.-

1t will be seen from the articles
published in this paper that Mr.
Cleveland is in some trouble. In
deed, his campaign appears to be
approaching dissolution. Five pa
pers, of the religious press, thai
started out for Clevelanda lldeclart
their mistake in week. One Of
these is Baptist, one Congregation
alist, one Methodist and one CathO'
lie. We know nothing more than
we thought we knew before, But
these evidences multiplying as they
do simply tend to show that we
may be spared scOlding and quar-
relling. In a word, the North,
East, and West will settle the pres
idency on patriotic principles.

it has been but a comparatively few
years that large adventure has attract
ed general interest to those formidable
regions. One of the earliest of TIE
noted explorers was Sir John Frank
lin. who ventured into the polar realm
in 1915, and since the July of that
year nothing has been learned of him
or his companions. He had then
reached Melville Bay, north latitude
II deg. 4S min. The first expedition
for the relief of this party was begun
in 1s4s, and for five years there was

Whereabouts of the missing men, there
being thirty-eight different commands,

Physiology Of Digestion In Ruminants.

A general idea of the physiology of
digestion OF ruminants is essential. in
order to enable the farmer to feed his
farm-stock in the most economical and
advantageous manner Large quanti-
ties of grain are wasted yearly for want
of little practical knowledge of this
kind, while the health of animals is
often impaired by injudIcious feeding,
and growth is checked. The knowledge
re uired to enable one to feed intel
Ggently and economically is not diff
cult to acquire, nor would it take much
time to acquire it. A brief description
of the digestive organs of ruminants. or
animals that ''chew the cud." is neceS-
sary in order to explain the physiology
of digestion
Ruminants have four stoma hs or
compartments. The first. called the
rumen or pauneh, is the largest, COM
posing about nine-tenths of the mass OF
the four stomachs. The grass and hay
which the animals gather and swallow
GO directly to their first stomach, and
are stored up there to be ground and
macerated preparatory to tho real work
of digestion. Coarse food like hay or
grass. when eaten. is only partially
masticated; but while it remains in the
first stomach. it is subjected to q process
which soitens its hard fiber, and great
ly facilitates complete aolrItion during
the succeeding stages of diges-
ton. 1t is highly desirable, as
will subsequently be seen. to have
all the food eaten sub egted to tn.
macerating process tue rumen. Th,
second stomach, although described o.

SeqUels Of Disease.

A disease is often followed by other
diseases-one or more-resulting di-
rectly or indirectly from the first sick
ness. Sometimes these come from the
debility that eau ed the Irst disease,
whereby inherited or other tendencies
gain power to develop themselves
Thus malaria, fever, diphtheria, or
even . severe cold, may give rise to
which might otherwise
have been delayed for years, or, per-
haps with care, wholly escaped.
Sometimes these secondary diseases
are due more directly to the primary
disease. They are then caused either
BY the destructive effects of the first
sickness, at different points of the sys-
tenn; or by the clogging of the elimin-
ating organs with great quantities Of
debris; or by the inflammation of these
organs through the stress put on them
by the excessive work of elimination.
1t is to these sequeis of disease that
physicians apply the word ''sequele."
They are of.en more dangerous than
the original disease.
