Has stood on its own intrinsic merit while
generation after generation has used it with
entire satisfaction and transmitted the know
ledge of its worth to their children as a valuable
inheritance. For over so years the demand for
it has steadily increased. 1t has probably
saved more lives and relieved more suffering
than any other remedy. 1t was devised by an
old fashioned, noble hearted Family Physician
for the good of his fellow men. 1t is mar
vellous the number of different diseases it will
cure. Be not afraid to trust what time has
endorsed. Every Mother should have it in the
house, dropped on sugar suffering children
love it. Its electric energy everlastngly
eradicates inflammation without irritation.

AN EDUCATION DILEMMA

AN hOCOAAlONA A L DAA H h MI A.
 The week just past has been an exciting one among the young gentlemen of the University who have been taking the spe- cial course in prizs. fighting. Two months have elapsed since February 18th, and those who took the prize fighting course are unanimously of the opinion that that Is long enough for any discrepancy between the law and their studies to elapse. But 1t won't elapse. Therefore number of the young gentlemen of the University have with great relhotsnce torn themselves away from Sl.uif coiIeae 7outies ana their dear teachers and are travelling. They do not appreciate the advantages which the State prison offers as @ place for quiet meditation and mental ripeniDg. The prison library is good one, but they don't want to use 1t. There Is good religious instruction there, based on Yale theology, but they will have none of 1t if they can help it. There are cages there, but they prefer to look upon or out of the baseball cage of the gymnasium. So they have fled and are fleeing. Their posi- tion is not comfortable one, for they fear that those members of the faculty who are opposed te a special course in prize fight ing may not fully sympathizs with them, and may add to the terrors of the State law the terrors of University law. If this should happen It is possible that the spe- cial course in prize fighting would be sbandonded for good, and thus one branch of education at Yale would receive go. | we're setback

Remarks for the Benefit of "A Lover
 of shams.o
 Tothe Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 I noticed in your paper su article "Rs- marks by Lover of Shamsn in which the able Clover of Shams" had some criticisms to make on 6 song that was sung the other night by the Second Glee club at church entertainment. Whoever your valued cor respondent is. I should have advised 8 more careful study of the words before publishing them. Surely, If he were judge, he would have known the difference between 8 lot of bums singing in 6 saloon and 8 chorus of trained voices such as has been the reputation of the glss clubs at Yale college for the last twenty years. This song has been sung In nearly every prominent city of this country and this Is the first time that they have been accused of polluting the minds of their audiences. Perhaps your witty reporter Is of vul- gar turn of mind and osn sec vulgsrity where others would not think of looking for 1t. sincerely hope that in the future the glee clubs will be spared from singing before reporter of such fsstidious tastes.

A Pension Fraud.

itron1 the ct LouiH 1tODe-DemocFat
 ''One of the most interesting pension cases I ever investigated" said ". R. Marshall. formerly special agent, "wss in the state of Indiana. For a number of years a woman had drawn a pension, and the department noticed that the receipts were signed very differently to the last payment than to those that preceded them. was sent to look up the matter, and st the house met young giEl who said that her mother was dead and had w!lled her the pension, and she proved 1t by @ badly written document. She then asked me, with perfect innocence, why che bad 10 sign another name to the receipts. Upon inquiry l learned that her father, for whose death the pension was drawn, had died before the way, and her mother mar ried again after she began to draw pen sion. She had often wondered before she died why she had to take the name of 6 man she had never heard of and be called his widow. hut the attorney said that 1t was all right, and had told her that where men were killed and left no widows the government provided in their names for these whu were widows during the war. The attorney had died few weeks before the investigation, 60 could not be pun ished, but the daughter's legacy was TO longer of any value"

A CONDITION AND A TH HEORY.
 The New York Evening Post orders Sen stors Calvin s. Brice of Ohio, David B. Hill and Edward Murphy, ir., of New York, John R. McPherson and James Smith, jr., of New Jersey, Arthur P. Cor. man and Charles H. Gibson of Maryland, Johnson N. Camden of West Virginia, Donelson Caffrsy and Edward D. White of Louisiana, John J. Morgan and James L. PuRh of Alabama to either vote for the Wilson bill or get out of the Democratic party, and It calls upon other organs of the Democratic party to issue a similar order.
 This interesting performance shows what the Democratic party has come to. Ia order to get votes Its leaders gave 1t in. to the hsnda of the theorists who deserted the Republican party because it had con- servatism and patriotism enough to keep 1t from following them to destruction and taking the country with 1t, and now those same theorists are openly at- tempting to rule or ruin the Democratic party. They have already ruled 1t almost to ruin and they fully intend to carry out their programme. They are better Demo- orats now than the old originals. It will be interesting to see the result of the con- test. The theorists have driven a great many Democrats into the Republican party, and there will be more to follow, for the theorists can't possibly act with sense and moderation.

Sunbonnets and Gown to Match.
 The rule for little girls gowns seems to be that they shall seem simple and washs- ble and suggest the freshness of newly laundered wear. Dear little sunbonnsts are worn to match the siDgham of the gown. These bonnsts can be bought ready made in the usual patterns of ging- hams which can be easily matched In ma terisl for the little frock. Round waists prints to match the dress are much worn. Girls as old as ten are not too much young ladies to look very sweet h such rigs. 4 tasteful party dress for e girl of from siI to nine years is sketched here.

A Railroad Man'. Wonderful Mem.
From the Anaconda Standard


 From the Ansconda Standard
 A well known railroad man told the fol- lowing story the other day; "when was at Mandsn. N. D. we had a man wkose memory of car numbers was really re- marksble. When a train whistled into the yard he would step to the platform, and, without a book or pencil, would stand and watch the cars go by. If any one was standing near he would converse upon whatever subject occurred, and when the conversation was ended he would step into his office and make a complete ard sccu- rate record of the train, beginning at the first car and ending with the csboose. Sometimes, just to test him, we would get him Co begin at the cAboose and write the numbers tle other way, or else begin h the middle of the train and work both ways. He never made a mistake that remember. Car numbers, the names of the rosds to which they belonged and their relative petition in the train would all be recorded accurately. His was the most remarkable memory that I ever knew of

A PLEASING VISION.

A great many thoughtful and we'll dis. posed people are wondering how this poor old world Is going to get out of the scrape 1t Is in. They feel that the situation Is de- eidedly strained and that unless there Is a great change for the better soon the human race will not be able even to get living for itself. These melancholy people need faith, and they can perhaps find some stimulus to it in what N. Berthelot,a a scien- tife Frenchman, Is able to see In the future. He says that chemistry can be re- lied on to set matters right and to furnish dsliverancs from many of the social evils of the day. This will
 be accomplished in part by utilizing the
 heat of the sun and the central heat of the
 earth. The latter will be obtained by shafts
 two miles deep, and modern engineers
 are equal to this task. Chemical trans.
 formation will be easy with such a source
 of heat at command. When energy can
 be ohesply obtained, food can be made from carbon taken from carbonio aoid,
 hydrogen taken from water, and nitro. gen taken from air. The work vegetables
 have so far done science will soon be able
 to do better, with far greater profusion,
 and independently of ths seasons or microbes or insects. There will then be no passion to own land, beasts need not be bred for slaughter, man will be milder and more moral. The reign of chemistry will beautify the planet, and there will be no need to disHgure 1t with the works of the agrioulturist or with the grime of factories and chimneys. It will recover It's verdure, the flora of the earth will be a vast pleasure garden, and the human race will live In peace and plenty. This is pleasing vision and after what we have seen during the last fifty years il would be risky to say that there is not as much truth ss poetry in 1t. When the hu, man race can buy peace and plenty at the chemists 1t will be all right If 1t can gel | the price,
