NOT 4 SUCCESS.

UIeNeIand Leader.
The Toledo Blade, in a long and learn
ed editorial, makes a vigorous assault
upon the Leader for saying that the pro-
hibitiOn law does not prevent the use and
sale of liquor in Iowa. In another col
umn of this issue will be found dispatch
from Dubuque, Ia, giving the opinions
of Interal Revenue Collector Webster on
this subject. He is on the ground and
ought to be posted. He says he has this
year issued 232 more liquor licenses than
were issued last year, and that the use of
liquor in Iowa is ON the increase. This
ought to settle the question. In the face
of such evidence it is rank abSurdity to
say that prohibition is a success in Iowa.

THEIR BUSINESS BOONING

Probably no one thing has caused such
a general revival of trade at PattersOns
drug store as their giving away to their
customers of so many free trial bottles of
DR.. Kings New Discovery for Consump-
ton. Their trade is simply enormous in
this very valuable article, from the fact
that it always cures and never disap-
points. Coughs, colds, asthma, bron-
chitis, Group, and all throat and lung dis
eases quickly cured. You can test it be

A SENSIBLE CONCLUSION

PitSburg Chronicle-Telegraph
Gen. Clinton B. Fisk announces posi-
lively that he would not accept the nom-
ination for Governor of New Jersey if
rendered by the Republican or any other
party; that he is out of politics except
that he will work to secure the election
of members of the Legislature who will
favor temperance, regardless of their
party leaning. The General, unlike most
of his fellow PrOhibitionists, regrets the
repeal of the local option law of 1888
and desires to see it restored, as it was a
long step forward in the good cause.

personal memoirs in LippiHcott'S MGga-

boy in Baltimore bookstore. at d salary
of two dollars a week. And | enjoyed

cess, the advance orders for it exceeding
fifty thousand copies. When Mr.. Childs
bought the Philadelphia Ledger. i'll De

the paper was losing $3.50 day. 1t had
been selling to the subscriber for a penny.
a figure Mr.. Childs felt to be absurd con
sidering the war prices for material
He doubled the price of the paper and
advanced the rates of advertising
There was, as he expected, some imme-
diate falling off in patronage, but the lost
ground was soon recovered. For several
years he spent from twelve to fourteen
hours day in the editorial room. The
average annual profit of the paper has
far exceeded the sum Mr. Childs paid for
it. His first paper is full of entertaining
Renaissance. Mr. Childs says the older
James Gordon Bennett was quiet, un-
Obtrusive, forcible man. and eminently
practical. "Childs," he once said. "how
unfortunate it is for a boy to have rich
parents If you and | had been born
that way, perhaps we wouldn't have
amounted to much" In the July paper
Mr.. Childs will give his recOllectiOns of

THE best medical writer's claim that the
successful remedy for nasal catarrh must
be nOn-irritating, easy of application, and
one that will, by its own action, reach all
the remote sores and liberated surfaces.
The history of the efforts to treat catarrh
during the past few years obliges us to
admit that only one remedy has com
pletely met these conditions, and that is
Elys Cream Balm. This safe and pleas
ant remedy has mastered catarrh as
nothing else has ever done, and both ply
sicians and patients freely concede this
fact. The more distressing symptoms
quickly yield to it. May 2330.
