Adjudged Insane.

The very few people who are willing
to be considered friends of the late
Apollo Rudulph will be panied to learn
that his recent attack of la grippe has
had bad effect upon his once massive
brain, which has given way under the
great mental strain and he has been
adjudged insane and is now occupying
padded cell and will soon be taken to
the lunatic asylum, where he is
certainly entitled to remain. Just
prior to his incarceration he broke
loose from his attendants. seized his
pen which is equally as powerful as a
cheese knife, and ripped off the follow
ing which originated in his sadly
demented brain:
A man by the name of Hite was
''held up' at Perrysburg last Sunday
night by three men, and robbed of $34.
No certain clue to the robbers has been
obtained, though there are some shrewd
suspicious. We understand it has been
learned that on Saturday night Blue,
of the Journal, had no stuff with which
to compensate his two office hands for
their weeks work; that the three were
seen at church together Sunday eve-
ming, a fact which of itself caused con-
siderable comment; that early Monday
morning Blue is known to have bought
l3 pounds of salt pork, half sack OF
corn meal, dog chain and an under
shirt, for which he paid cash: while
one oil his workmen appeared upon the
streets with a new paper collar and the
appearance of having taken bath, and
the other boy sported new socks, a
goose-Quill tooth pick and applied ST.
on lingering hoard bill. The people
are drawing their own conclusions, ol
course.
BY the above it will be seen that the
poor old "has been" is doomed to enc
his days in the mad house or the
Sentinel Office which is one and the
same thing.

per cent. of the enrolment. Where is

Tho Family Physician.

1t has been said, and truly, that the
family physician is your best friend.
There is no man in whom more conf
dence should be placed: no one to
whom person should be more free to
explain his condition. AS a rule the
gentlemen of the profession are kind
and gentle and we believe the true
physician has as tender heart as any
man living, ,and although he many times
inflicts pain, he always does it for the
bed, at all times of the night and in all
kinds of weather, to minister to the
wants of suffering humanity, and al
though he does it for money, the
patient also owes his physician debt
of gratitude which he should always
endeavor to pay.
Perrysburg is indeed blessed with a
number of very worthy gentlemen of
the profession. DR.. FL. A. Hamilton,
one of the pioneer physicians Of the
county, whose name is mentioned in
nearly every household not only in this
but adjoining counties, Is one who has
by long years of patient and faithful
service eudeared himself to hundreds
of families.
DR.. Rheiufrank, who embarked in
the profession in this place when but a
very young man has grown into d
lucrative practice and won an enviable
reputation as physician and surgeon
DR.. Bowers, who grew from youth tc
manhood in this place, worked his way
through college and was regarded as {
very bright student, and settled dowI
to the practice Of his profession here
is physician who is worthy and ha
won the confidence of the people.
DR.. Brainard, who practices Hom9p
athy, is considered an able practitioner
and is truly worthy the respect ant
confidence due TO his professional
ability.
People are always divided in regar'
to their choice of physicians just a
they are in regard to politics an,
religion, but in this place, we ca
point with pride to all of them an
truly say they are worthy that respec
and confidence due the worthy an
skilled practitioner.

We are not so sure about the correct
ness of the code of ethics which forbids
lawyers and doctors to solicit business
OF to advertise themselves as specially
well qualified to handle certain class
of cases. If a man intends to build
house and lets it be known, contractors
and builders call on him by the
score and solicit the job and nothing
is thought of it. And yet "they are
all honorable men," Merchants are,
as class, men of brains and intelli-
community us do their fellows who
practice law and medicine. Imagine,
il you can, the absurdlty of mere hants
having code of ethics which forbade
them to insert anything in the news
papers save the simple announcement
of name and place of business. AT this
point, too, it might be we'll enough to
pause and reflect on the effect such a
code would have upon the newspapers
themselves. The builder who seeks
the job of building your house points
with pride to such and such editices as
samples of his handiwork. They stand
as eloquent witnesses TO his assertions
that he is skilled and capable work
= man. Doctors and lawyers, however.
cannot do this, at least not openly, and
if done at all subjects them to pro-
fessiona shame and disgrace. Seri.
ously, we have no sort OF sympathy
with charlatans, quacks and pretenders
in any of the callings of life; but we
fail to see wherein there is anything
inherently wrong in either doctors OF
lawyers advertising in modest, sensi
bic way, nor in their soliciting patron
age in the same manner. The mere
antiquity of IL custom more often com
mands Our respect and fealty than or
account Of any inherent merit the Gus
tom itself may possess.-Ex.

There are three kinds of grip
nervous, catarrhal and gastric-and
each kind is meaner than the others.
Forty per cent, of the catarrhal grip
ends in pneumonia. If you have nerv-
Gus grip you will want to commit sui
eide with the blues. If you have
gastric grip you will wish you were
dead forty times a day. This is all the
material points Of difference between
the various kinds of this despisable
Ia grippe.

Fortunately there is but one Republic
can party in West Virginia and every
Republican belongs to it. Thisis what
wounds the feelings OF our friends on
the other side. Their own case is in
striking contrast. Their forces dwell in
several well-delined camps. To say
nothing OF harmony, it has been found
impossible to establish any approach to
peace among them.
There is u world OF trouble over the
senatorial question alone-enough to
disorganze stronger party than the
Democracy of West Virginia is in this
period OF its decline. Republicans are
not banking on this, but it will help.
What gives encouragement to Repub-
licans is that there are more OF them
than Of the other fellows in West Vir-
ginia. This means that West Virginia
is Republican state, which in turn
means the dawning of better day for
the rising young commonwealth.
Don't bother your Democratic heads
about Republican discussions. There
are none. Look to your hearths, my
lords"
