HOW TO DIE EASY.
The Secret Sought for by So Many at
Last Revealed

There is no man who has thought of death at
all seriously but has both wondered whether, nd
hoped that, his death when it comes will he easy
and painless The prevalence of this desire is
well shown by the strange preference shown by
suicides for means Especially opium, morphine
and chloraD that shall carry them quickly and
painlessly into the next world. There was once
a court Jester or fool who was condemned to
death by the king for some impudent remark
but as measure of mercy was allowed To choose
his own mode of death. He told the king one
day that his choice was made, and said, when
asked how he preferred to die, ''Of old age, sire"
His clever reply saved hslif
Now the best way to save yourself from the
Sufferings of death is to remain alive and happy,
and cwiously enough the same means that will
insure this will also insure being born easily To
be born easily and painlessly is of as much I'M
portance to our mothers as for them or us to die
easily or painlessly. There is no doubt now that
the terrible throes and agonies of child birth and
the dangerous commissions shock and exhaus-
ton of this trying period may be avoided by the
use of the greatest tonic and nervine, Scotch
Oats Essence
Not only does it insure easy birth and freedom
from its dangers, but makes strong robust chill
dren, plenty of pure rich milk, and freedom of
the child from spasms, commissions and the like
a certainty. The Oats Phosphoids in Scotch Oats
Essence makes rich milk strong bones in the
child, and thus averts Ricketts,. 1t also keeps the
bowels regular and prevents nausea and sick
ness, and averts the nervous troubles of child
hood, such as commissions, lockjaw, paralysis
and the like.
Taken by the mother 1t saves her trouble
months before, makes easy the trying period,
and affects both herself and her offspring for
good. Scotch Oats Essence is the most wonder
full remedy Of the century.
Every bottle Of ScoTCH OATS ESSENCE manu-
featured by the company will now have on its
pasteboard wrapper $4,000 forfeit guarantee
that it does not contain a particle Of opium
morphine, choral or any other narcotic

A VERY OLD AND COSY DIVORCE coUnr.

ANhhf OLD AND COSY DIVORCE COURT.
Chinese husband may divorce his wife
LOT number of causes; incompatibility,
inert, drunkenness, disobedienoe, unfaith-
Iuiness, or failure In duties toward husband
or his parents. The process is very simple
The husband calls together his relatives and
presents the case to them in the presence of
ms WIFE The company vote on the ques-
ZION. LII the ground for divorce is suffi-
Gent In their eyes, bhe man and woman sign
papers of separation by dipping their fin
gers In Ink and making a mark at the foot
of the agreement.
If the divorced wife has parents or near
relatives she goes and lives with them. If
not, she is sold by the husband to sort of
matrimonial agent, who finds for her an
other husband or resells her to the keepers
OF low houses. A second or third wife is
sometimes simply turned into the street by
her husband without formal process of di-
vorce.
!nf1deEty or the suspicion of martial un-
talthtulness IS the strongest ground for di-
vorce. A husband does not ALWAYS wait to
nave the question decided, but takes the
law into his own hands and beats his wife
TO death. When he takes her in fa0rante
detlctu the law gives him the right to kill
both her and her lover. But he must kill
them both; it is murder to put one to death
and let the other go free. Among the river
people or canton the pair are sometimes
tied together and thrown into the water.
Sometimes the paramour buys the husband
Off In such a case the gallant goes into
Punishment and the wife is often sold as a
slave.
A wife can not bring claims for divorce
against her husband. If, however, when
she is with child he deserts her and remains
away for three years or more, she is at
liberty to marry again. But if he is absent
In affairs Of State or business, twenty, or
even thirty years, the marriage still holds,

Two Girls Fight With Vicious Buck
From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.

From the st. Louis Globe Democrat.
FORT GIBSON, /. T., May 10.-I yeture to
give an account of the experience which
two young ladies. had with deer recently
near Eufaula, a little town some few miles
below this place, on the line of the Missouri.
Kansas and Texas railroad. The two Young
ladies', daughters Of respectable families,
living at the above named town, went out
in a carriage one evening recently for q
drive. They drove along the wide public
road for several miles without molestetion.
Suddenly while passing a dense under
growth Of grapevines and cypress near the
road, a deer of gigantic size with large
head of horns confronted the horse which
they were driving and commenced to butt
the animal with its horns.
The girls were frightened and did every
thing in their power to get the horse to go
on, but to no avail. Presently one of the girls
got out of the buggy with the hopes of
frightening the deer and running it into the
woods On alighting from the vehicle she
gave her handkerchief flirt, aiming to
scare the unwelcome visitor, but the deer,
instead of running, made for the young lady
with such fury that she was powerless to
get away. The deer kept butting her until
finally the young girl was badly gored. By
this tine the young lady remaining in the
buggy had come to her assistance, and now
commenced the fight for life or death
One of the girls seized the buck by
the horns while the other took a strap
from the harness. and plac-
ing it around the dun's neck, tied the other
end to q tree. After this was accomplished
the young ladies got into their buggy and
drove home, where some of the inhabitants
we're informed of the affair. A company Of
young men armed themselves and repaired
to the scene Of the battle. On arriving at
the place, to their surprise, they found the
buck tied to tree with leather strap that
had been taken from the harness on the
horse which the young ladies were driving.
The buck was shot down, skinned and
taken to town. The horns were presented
to the young ladies, the points numbering

The Republicans of Illinois have nomi.
mated for Governor Joseph W Fifer. The
candidate is a good campaign speaker and
represents the younger and more vigorous
section of his party. He enters the field as
the standard-bearer of the party now in
power, and it seems probable that Republi-
can Gov. Oglesby will be succeeded by Re-
publican Gov. Ffer.
Mr.. Fifer was born in the year 1912 at
Stauuton, Va. He was in his teens when
his father settled in Mclean county, Illinois,
to cultivate a small farm. The four years
beginning with 1857 were spent by young
Fifer In helping his father to clear the land
alternating this laborious occupation with
bricklaying. With his country's need he
joined an Illinois regiment as a private
soldier. Fifer was terribly wounded at
jackson, Miss, on July 10, 1868. He re-
covered from his injuries, and toward
the end of 1864 became a student
at the Illinois Wesleyan Univer-
sity, Bloomington, where he was
graduated in 1868 He had read law
about two years when, in 1869, he was adj
mitted to the bar. In 1871 he was elected
Corporation Counsel of Bloomington; the
next year, States Attorney. After eight
years continuous service in this capacity
he was elected to the State Senate, of which
he was a member four years. His services
as Senator gave him great local distinction.
Since his retirement from the Senate Mr..
Fifer until now has steadily pursued the
practice of his profession. His career is an
interesting chapter in American biography.

The CoIOred Man In Politics.

One of the most important political
movements of the day is that Of the COL
ored race towards independent political
voting. A colored Democrat some years
ago was such novelty that he was prac-
tically ostracized by his brethren and
mathematical as traitor. But with
the lapse of years and experience Of Dem
ocratic rule, the negro is opening his eyes
to the absolute wrongfulness OF playing
the permanent role of newer Of wood and
drawer of water for the Republican party.
The negro is beginning to realize that
In the great Republican states he is the
balance Of power. If the Pennsylvania
colored voters cast their ballots in body
for Cleveland, the electoral vote Of this
commonwealth will be placed in the
Cleveland column. Ii Is certain that
Cleveland and Thurman will receive
more ballots from the colored race than
ever before accorded to Democratic can.

doubtful states, New York, Ohio, In
diana and Illinois, where every vote will

Tne big convention of colored men IN
Indianapolis this week would have been
impossible four years ago and the Demo
cratic endorsement they enunclated would
have been inconceivabIe. But since
1884 Democratic president has giver
larger recognition to the colored rae,
than any Republican predecessor. He ha,
made James M. Trotter recorder Of deed
for the District Of Columbia in place o
the blatant demagogue, Fred. Douglass
and In his other appointments he ha
shown desire for the advancement O
the colored man. The latter remember
that 1t was Democratic mayor In Phila
delphia, who first dared to put colore
man on the police force. Democrati
executives in New York, Ohio an,
Rhode Island were the first to deman,
political equality for the negro, while th
negro was voting steadily the Republica
ticket.
