two exceptions" were very clever fell
lows, or words to that effect.
Seriously, the outcome of the Demo-
cratic Convention was, with possibly
one exception no more nor less than
farcical. 1t exemplifed the truth OF the
saying, that the Democratic party III the
county has lost its cunning. The gen.
tlemen nominated are, doubtless "clever
fellows" honorable citizens, with all the
virtues of the average man but we VEN
ture to say that, since the Democratic
party gained power in this county.
twenty-five years ago, it has never pre-
sented for the suffrages of the people a
list of candidates for public PLACES SO
conspicuously untitled to discharge the
duties of those places as the candidates
nominated in this year of grace.
These are not merely, the words Of a
partizan journal they express the sober
conviction of large majority of the
people Of Cecil County, regardless of
party and they furnish to the Republic
can party of the county its golden OPP
portunity.
The Democratic ticket can lie beaten
overwhelming, from top to bottom and
will be beaten if the people are given
half chance or rather, if the people
will take advantage of the opportunity
and will say to Republican party man.
ayers, at the coming primaries, that
there must be no treading in the foot
steps of Democratic dotards.
The action of the Republican Con-
vention will settle the issue of this cam
paign. 1t can nominate ticket that,
from the start, will be the harbinger OF
victory or it can founder in the mazes
of senile politics and, as result, pre-
sent ticket that, as between it and the
Democratic ticket. will be "six of the
one and half.dozen OF the other"
The Republican voters of the county
can take the matter IN their own hands
and we believe they will do so. They
can and we believe, will say so plainly
that the warfaring man, though fool,
may understand, that the Republican
ticket must be selected from among the
best men in the county, men whose fit
ness will, at once, be recognized and
whose nominations will be an earnest
to the whole community that the
excellent local record of the Republi.
can party during the past two years will
be continued.
Let every Republican voter in the
county attend the primaries and give
expression to his choice as to who shall
rule over US.

The first experiment was made Sa, urday
night from an elixir compounded by him

been a confirmed morphine eater for the
past 20 years. She is about 60 years Of
age, and acquired the habit when she
was about 40 years of age, and 1t grew on
her to such an extent that she has eaten
from 90 to 25 grains daily for the past 10
months, and for the past six months she
has been unable to attend to any work,
no matter how light, and has eaten and
slept most o. her time on . lounge. Sat
urday night Dr.. Hermann injected two
drachms of elixir into her arm, and there
was no perceptible CHI snge in her appear
ance for several hours. When bedtime
came she retired without taking her GUS
tomary dose of morphine, and for the
first time in years she slept soundly dur

ing greatly refreshed. The family was
astoLished at the good results, and the
old lady felt as though she was Is years
younger. Que got up, ufesseu herself,
walked to the table and ate a hearty
meal. The elixir brought the color back
to her cheeks, the sparkle to her eyes and
new blood in her veins. She has not
taken particle of morphine since, and
says she has no desire tor it.
Mr.. George Buchanan, member of a
clothing company and II leading business
man, was given a dose yesterday. He
had been a sufferer from general debility
for years, and sometimes is 80 run down
that he can hardly attend to business.
After the injection. for an hour, there
was no change in either his appearance
or feeling, but presently his cheeks flush
and brightness commenced filling his
eyes. The good effect increased until he
was livelier in spirits and acted as though
he was a new man. He is the happiest
man in town, and says that, if the effects
of the elixir wear away, be will have
more at any cost. The other case was
that of man who tried it out of curios
ity and derived no results from its use.
Several other physicians will make tests
of the new discovery this week.

mich COW and a large rattlesnake oc.
CURED recently on the farm Of Mr..
Joseph Carter in Bib county, Ala
Mr.. Carter had turned his cows into a
fresh pasture where there was some
very fine grass. which they began to
eagerly devour. A small ditch ran
through the pasture, and on its banks
the grass was very thick. The cows
were feeding in a bunch on the bank
Of this ditch when they scented q rat
tlesnake and moved away with the
exception of n large, black COW.
She stood for a moment looking in
the direction the snake was supposed
to be. The grass was very fine in that
direction, and the COW soon made up
her mind. She ventured a little fur
ther forward, occasionally stopping
and looking about her, evidently try
ing 10 discover the snake. She had
moved forward perhaps ten feet from
the point where the animals first scent
ed danger, when without tho Gus
tomary warning rattle the snake
struck and buried its fangs in the low
er jaw OF the COW. The COW did not
run away, but backing slowly q few
feet she stood still several moments,
lashing her tail from side 10 side. Then,
with a mad below, she plunged for
ward directly toward the spot where
the rattlesnake was lying hidden In
the grass. The snake was on the alert
