Must Change It's Policy.

Here is what the PHILADELPHIA
Telegraph, Republican ne~spa-
per of high standing, has to say
at is universally recognized that
never before in the history of the
country was money so corruptly,
openly and recklessly used as dur
ing the last campaign by the Re-
publican party. The Republican
leaders Haunted their corrupt prac-
tices in the eyes of the coun try.
They systemstized the crime of
prostituting the ballot, of buying
up voters, of "frying the fat" out
Of the manufacturers, who were di-
rectly and pecuniarily interested in
the party's succes-which fat was
to be used, and was used, for the
most corrupt purposes. The man
ufacturers were not appealed to to
contribute TO campaign funds in
order that the excellent principle Of
protection should be maint aimed
inviolate for the welfare of the
country; but they were told, with
brutal bluntness, that, they must
contribute in order to serve their
own pecuniary interests. Never
before in the history of the psf
ties or of the country did the sue
cessful presidential candidate of q
party give one high Office after
another TO men who had no other
claim to present above that Of any
other citizen, except that they had
contributed, directly lr indirectly,
large sum to the campaign fund,
which was used to buy voters in
blocks OF five or 500. No matter
how glorious the history of the
past of the Republican party is it
cannot expect TO succeed in the fu-
ture if it continues the practices of
1883 and 1889. The young and
vigorous men who are growing up
and preparing TO take sides in poll
tiles are not going to ally them
selves with a party that openly
and hagrantly contemns political
honesty, that openly prostitutes
The ballot, that squeezes money |
from an interested class Of citizens
FOR the purpose of buying votes,
and that distributes offices of trust
and honor and responsibility among
those who gave the most literally
TO the corruption fund. The Re
publican party must change its pol
ICY end conduct of this year and
asst If it Is to continue to enjoy the
popular favor and to live along in
The twentieth century. IT will live
by deserving to live, and not other
wise. II will not survive many
like the last because it
should not do so. IL was bad
enough that parties should nam
ain that the public Offices were
lot public trusts, but private SPOTS.
It Is infinitely worse to declare
hem prizes to be awarded those
who gave most largely to funds for
eorruptin2 the ballot.

The Human Breath Poison

The Paris correspondent of the
Medical Press and circular reports
that at the last meeting of the Acad
emie DIES Sciences Prof. Brown s, =
guard referred to some experiments
he had conducted with a view to
determine who, if any, were the
toxic of the human breath.
In condensing the watery vapor
cowIng from the human lungs, he
obtained poisonous liquid capa-
bic of producing almost immedi-
ate dea'h This poison is an aka
loid (organlc), aad not microbe
or a series OF microbes as might
have been imagined,
He injected this liquid un aer the
skin of rabbit, and the effect was
speedily mortal. fhe animal died
without commissions; tGe heart and
larger vessels were engorged with
reddish blood, contrary to what is
observed after ordinary death when
the quantity os blood is moderate
and of dark color
In concluding this eminent phys
iologist said that 1t was fully
proved that respired air contained
a volatile toxic principle far more
dangerous than the carbonic acid
which was allo one of its constitu-
ents, and that the human breath,
as well as that of animals, contains
q highly poisonous agent.

Mother q.

There are upon the skin of every hui
man being, child and adult alike, 1900
900 pores. Through these pores in the
form of insensible perspiration, is ex-
PEELED more than one-quarter of the
nourishment taken into the system.
The i'm portance of keeping open these
perspiration valves upon child's body,
is second only to thBt of promptly di-
costing the food eaten. 1t was to open
the pores of the skin and to assimilate
the fool that DIR. Pitcher formulated
Castoria. Loose bowels, constipation,
fesers and eruptions which are so con-
slant among nfants and children, and
which kill one-third of all children be-
fore they are five years old, arise prin-
cipally from these two causes. 1t is
from the wonderful results attendant
upon the use of Cas- toria in regulating
the stomachs and bowels ard keeping
open the pores of the skin, that Casto-
ria acquired its world wide reputation
With plenty OF water for the body,
pure air for the lungs and Castoria TO
ass simulate the food, there need be no
for sickness among chill
dren. Castoria is a vegetable prescrip-
ii on without morphine or other narcotic
properly. Thirty years extensive use
has given it history yer attained by
another medicine.

EUide nee against Himself.

Among the many things the saw
mill man has to contend with in
this part of Georgia is the lack of
} erfect titles to the lands on which
he purchases timber. Numerous
troubles result therefron and as a
rule, we are waited on every day by
some native who claims that we are
cutting timber from land that has
been in his possession for years l..
although we have leases on il from
other parties. A few days since
our general manager was called on
by one Of these persons, who told
him that he must stop cutting on a
certain lot that we had just begun.
"Have you the titles to itp' was
the first question put to him.
II have" was the reply. and he
forthwith pulled from his pocket a
dirty, aged looking roll.
The general manager took 1t and
carefully read them through, then,
turning to the would be owner,
said:
81 can't notice such documents
az those"
"Why2' asked the astonished
man.
Because" replied the general
manager, holding the paper up be
tween him and the light, "this deed
was written just twenty-five years
before the mill WAS built that made
this paper"
The climant took his papers and
went sadly away without another
word.-Atlanta Constitution.
