is accompanied by mental eccen-

She thinks that "Uncle Toms

was merely a medium through
which God expressed his cOndem-
nation Of human slavery. She
argues that, ,unaided, should we have
been quite incapable Of writing the

is the fact that although she turned
out other books, they made nothing

object, about the sizs of a kernel of wheat

Was America Ever Disc0vered2

At the time WREN Columbus started in
search of the New World, nearly every
man, woman and child in Europe insisted
that there was no New World to discover
When he came back, crowned with sue
cess, large proportion of these good
people adhered to their theory; and if
they were alive today many of them would
doubtless insist that America had never
been discovered at all. A man will give
up an, thing in the world more readily
than a pet theory. For example, look at
the individuals who s,ill maintain that
consumption is incurable. DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery has cured
thousands upon thousands of cases. and
will cure thousands more, hut these peo,
pie can't give up their point. Neverthe-
less the "Discovery" will cure any Ca g
of consumption, if taken IN time.

The symptoms of Biliousness are un.
happily but too we'll known. They differ In
different individuals 10 some extent A
Bilious man is seldom breakfast eater.
Too frequently, alas, he has an excellent
appetite for liqnids but none for solids of a
morning. His tongue will hardly bear in
spection at any time; if it is not white and
furred, it is rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order and Diarrhea or Constipation may be
a symptom or the two may alternate. There
are often Hemorrhoids or even loss of blood.
There may be giddiness and often headache
and acidity or tiatulence and tenderness in
the pit OF the stomach. To correct all this
if not effect a cure try Green's August
Flower. it cost but trifie and thousands
attest It's efficacy. 2.

The rainfall for the past week was

above the normal in the eastern
part of the State. Counties in 9TH

The temperature for the week
was about the average throughout

The average sunshine was re.

The weather for the week has
been very favorable and most cor

GETTING READY SOON.
Miller and Mortimer Anticipate
the Result of Their Coming
Trial and Prepare
to Die.

John Miller's wife called at the Jail
Monday evening, having been sent
for by her husband. Jailer Harry
Atchison stood just outside the
cage while the colored man and his
wife conversed. AS stated in the
LEDGER yesterday, confinement
and anxiety have begun to tell on
the confined negro individually
of a reticent disposition-he has
become gloomy and morose. His
thoughts are troubling him. The
officers of the Jail are now keep
ing close watch on their prisoner
as it is feared that he contemplates
suicide.
Yesterday, he bundled up all his
clothing, save those he is wearing,
and when his wife visited him last
evening he gave her the roll and
and instructed her to take it home,
saying: "Do what you think best
with all my things. l know l am
going to die soon and 1 am ready.
| will never see you again with the
eyes of a free man"
Miller's wife dosen't seem a bit
affected by the perilous position of
her husband; on the contrary she
called him foolish and laughed at
his fears.
Mortimer, Miller's partner, wrote
a long letter to a Pike county friend
this afternoon. In it he said: 81
haven't long to live; good bye. l
hope I will see you in the other
world" He continued in this
strain through several pages OF
note paper, concluding with, "God
bless you, good bye"
1t is believed that Miller and
Mortimer are making an effort by
this means to excite the sympathies
of the public, but the theory that
they have made a confession not
yet made public is also a good one.

man go about seeing that every
body kept clean. Again, we will
turn to the records of the courts
here and find a great many divorce
suits. There's another vice. How
are you going to stop it? Well, the
great national caterer will tell you
to stop marrying-don't marry,
and you've got 'em! There wont
be any divorces then.
"The next objection | have to
this Ubiquitous law is that it is I'M
Christian. I lay the challenge
down boldly. From Genesis to
Revelations can you find reference
to prohibitory laws? Not one; but
you will see the injunction from
time to time against the excessive
use of wine and against drunken
ness, but not oncd will you find a
line telling you not to give away,
sell or barter Intoxicating liquor.
"My hearers, as sue as the sun
that sat in the West this evening
will rise in the East tomorrow
morning, that sure will you strike
down religious liberty with the
adoption of that pink of iniquity,
the Local Option law. There is
no grander calling in this world
than that of a minister-iti is the
grandest to which a man can as
pire. [ would rather be a preacher,
were l good enough, than be Presi-
dent.
Il have other reasons why this
law should not be adopted. 1t is
a fraud, a humbug, a cheat, adelu-
sion and a snare. l could give you
fifty other reasons but | haven't
the time. l am like the boy whose
father was a minister; and one Sun
day, when the congregation had
assembled, the little fellow came
running down to the church,
almost breathless, and said:
"'There are ten reasons why Pa
can't be here this morning; first, he
died last night and he's dead. l
guess l don't have to tell you the
other nine"
Mr.. Shewalter closed with the
reading of some very interesting
figures, drawing a comparison be-
tween Prohibition Maine and whis-
ky-cursed Missouri. He began with
the populations of 1920, when
Maine led by a large majority. Fol
lowing them by decades he landed
Missouri in 1880 with her millions
against the thousands of poor old
Maine. The speaker showed the
increase of population in Maine
for thirty years to have been only
eleven per cent, while insanity in
creased ffty-six per cent.
The audience left the house
highly delighted with the address
of the evening,
