Who would think that railroad engine

Tuesday was stopped Oh its way to Char

when Engineer Lewis saw dark object
abe ID on the track. He at first thought it
was a man, but as it did not move he
seized the hell cord and gave the cattle
alarm. The object grew bigger, but re-
manned motionless, and the engineer threw
on the brakes. The train slowed up alb
ruptly, and as it drew near the object the
engineer saw something that astonlshed
him, There, Just in front Of him, was a

"I Am So Tired"

Is common exclamation at this season.
There is a certain bracing effect in cold air
which is lost when the weather grows
warmer; and when Nature is renewing her
youth, her admirers feel dull. sluggish and
tired. This condition is owing mainly to
the impure condition Of the blood, and its
failure to supply healthy tissue to the va
rious organs of the body. 1t is remarkable
how susceptible the system is to the help to
be derived from a good medicine at this
season. Possessing just those purifying,
building up qualities which the body Graves

The Supreme Iudgeship.

We wish at this time to call the
attention of the voters of the county
to the matter of the election of the
Justice of the Supreme Court. In
the confusion and excitement of local
politics there is danger that this mat
ter will be lost sight of, it is exceed
ingly important. The only two can
didates in the field are Mr.. Pinney
and Mr.. Ellis. They are both Dem
0crats, so there is no political feature
in the canvass. Mr.. Pinney is uni
versally conceded to be a very able
and very honorable man; certainly
much ADLER man that Mr.. Ellis.
Mr.. Ellis is 65 years of age while Mr..
Pinney is 81. The Justices of the
Supreme Court hold their offices ten
years. We think the state already
suffers seriously by having too old
men on the bench. This is a matter
of common complaint; of the five
that are there only one is under sew
enty and some are on for many years
yet. We think Mr.. Ellis age a Sc
rious objection. We know no reason
why Mr.. Pinney should not receive
the unanimous support of the state.
While democrat he is not partisan
or politician and has devoted his
life to industrious and honorable
professional service. Such opposi-
