STANDARD OF TRUE REFINE
MENT.

A certain punctilious old gentleman
used to say that no true lady would
ever wear stocking with hole in it.
The same idea was voiced by young
girl Of later generation, who declar-
ed that she never felt like a lady when
there was a button off her shoe. Each
put into words an appreciation of the
fact that more is required than out
ward correctness of appearance to
mark the woman whose innate inn
pulses are all toward refinement.
As the man of thorough breeding is
to be recognized bv his bearing to his
interiors, rather than by his conduct
to his equals, as the good housekeeper
is judged by the condition Of her col
lar and pantries, rather than by the
state of her parlors SO is the truly re-
fined lady distinguished more by the
unnoticeable minutiae of her dress
than by the general outward effect
The truths stated above are obvious
even to the casual observer, and while,
like all propositions that involve a
line of human conduct, they are sub.
ject to the traditional exception, yet
in the main the rule holds good in
every civilized land under the sun.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs Of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; efFectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation,
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man.

No Doubt About 1t.

Gen. Wheeler, chairman of the
House Committee on Territories, 1t is
asserted, has no hope of getting up
the bill for the admission Of New
Mexico until the tariff bill is disposed
of, aud then It will be in regular or
der Delegate Smith, of Arizona,
whose bill for the admission of his
territory has already passed the House,
says there is no doubt about favor
able action in the Senate.
Daily Texarkana Democrat., 1894-01-09
In Olden Times

People overlooked the Importance OF
permanently beneficial effects and
were satisfied with transient action;
but now that IL is generally known
that Syrup Of Figs will permanently
cure habitual constipation, well in
formed people will not buy other Lax
atives, which act for time but finaIjy
injure the system.

Cures Others

Willc cure You, is true statement OF the
action Of AYERS Sarsaparilla, when
taken for diseases originating in impure
blood; but, while this assertion is true Of
AYERS Sarsaparilla, as thousands car
attest, it cannot be truthfully applied to
other preparations. which unprinciplcd
dealers will recommend, and try to inn
pose upon you, as Gust as good as
Ayers" Take Ayers Sarsaparilla and
Ayers only, if you need blood-puriier
and would be benefited permanently.
This medicine, for nearly fifty years,
has enjoyed a reputation, and made a
record for cures that has never been
equaled by otherpreparations. AYERS
Safsaparilla eradicates the faint Of he
reditary scrofula and other blood dis
eases from the system, and it has, deser-
vcdly, the confidence OF the peoplc.

rr.c,tinridpe and Congress-.

The constitution of the United States,
article |, section D, says: Each house
shall be the Judge of the elections, re-
turns and qualifications of its own
members. Each house may de-
termine the rules of its proceedings,
punish its members for disorderly b.
havior, and, with the concurrence Of
two-thirds, expel a member. Similar
powers are granted TO all Legislative
bodies TO enable them to protect them-
selves from being compelled 10 associ-
ate with disreputable characters elect
ed to membership.
A few years ago the Ohio Legisla-
ture, then Democratic, expelled a
member of their own party on learning
that he was at one time convict in
the Michigan penitentiary. More re-
Gently the Illinois Legislature sent a
committee to learn whether member
of that body had ever been an inmate
of the Ohio penitentiary, with view
TO his expulsion ii the accusation
proved true. In 1881 Congress denied
a seat to the delegate from Utah,
George g. Cannon, because he had
four wives and was living in open
violation OF the laws of the United
States.
Congress is now called uTon to per-
form the same high duty in the case OF
Col. w. G. +. Breckenridge, of Ken
lucky, who, ly his own evidence given
in the Pollard Breckinrid 20 case, has
proven himself disqualified to sit in
Congress with the respectable, law
abiding members of that body.

FRANK HATToN was born at CadlZ,
Ohio, in April, 1915. His father was
editor and publisher of the Cadiz Re-
pub lean. In his ninth year Frank
Hatton began his journalistic career
as printers devil in his fathers Office.
Later he became foreman in the Re-
publican Office and afterward succeeded
his father in the editorial chai' of the
paper. From the place of his birth
he removed to Mount Pleasant.
Iowa, in 1868, and under the super
vision of his father edited the Mount
Pleasant Journal. After the death of
his father, in 1874. Hatton bought a
half interest in the Burlington Iowa
Hawkeye. Only few years were nee
essary to make him the editor-in-chief
and sole proprietor of the Hawkeye,
which under his management became
one Of the leading newspapers OF the
West. Under the Hayes administra-
tion he was appointed postmaster at
Burling on in November, 1879, and af-
ter the death OF Garfield, in Septem-
Der, 1881, President Arthur app int d
him First Assistant Postmaster Cen
eral to succeed James n. Tyner. La er
on, when Postmaster General Gresham
handed in hi resignatit n, Hatton was
appointed to fill the vacancy. His
public career ended, Mr.. Hatton re-
turned to his favorite field Of .ournal-
ism, and was editor successfully of the
National Republican, the New York
Press, of which he was che of the
founders, and the Washington Post, of
which he was editor and proprietor At
the time of his death. The Pest, as
the Burlington Hawkeye, owes its sue
&c to his ludicious management dur
ing period of five years. Mr.. Hatton
was yal party man, an able public
officer, and family man." In the
civil war he serv- d the Union side in
an Ohio regiment, where he remained
as private until the end Of the war.

Gresham Obeys Grover.

Secretary Gre sham must feel pretty
uncomfortable these days when even
the Democrats pitch into him. There
was nothing heater in Senator Hill 5
speech than the suggestion that the
Republican party must bear share in
the responsibility Of the mischievous
and ridiculous Hawaiian policy of the
present administration, because Secre-
tary Gresham, a former Republican, is
Secretary of State. OF course Senator
Hill meant nothing more than dig at
Cleveland for the selection of 80 recent
a convert to the Democracy as Judge
Gresham, a defeated candidate for the
Republican nomination for President.
But il Is probably unjust TO hold Gres-
ham responsible for the diplomacy OF
the present administration. Cleveland
considers the heads of the departments
a, mere clerks OF the President. There
is no reason e. believe that he looks
upon the Secretary OF State in higher
light. He Indicated tho policy to be
pursued toward Hawaii and Gresham
-obeyed orders.

Fewer Immigrant, Cominy.

Unskilled labor in the Eastern
States often cries out against the COM
petition of foreign immigrants who are
willing u work for half the wage
Amer can workingmen receive. Even
some highly skilled mechanics favor a
rest lotion of immigration by imposing
a tax of $50 or SlC0 head on every
newcomer. The abandonment OF the
American standard OF living and Or
wages would, however, stop the i'm.
migration TO this country quicker than
a head tax The effect of hard times
and the downward tendency OF wages
which the threat OF the Wilson bill
has already caused is shown in the
