They All Had Souls.

The following story is told of a CORE
spondent who has recently returned from
trip to the far west Of the United States
says Pearson's Weekly.
TWO men, who had been sitting to-
gether in the seat near the door of a
railway car became engaged in an ami
mated controversy, and their loud voices
attracted the attention of all the other

There is a good joke on Germantown
father and mother. who not long ago
found some difficulty in finding acceptable
names for their twin babies, who, by the
way, were girls, says the Philadelphia

clusion, paterfamilias struck a happy
idea, and decided to name his girl babies
Kate and Duplicate. Recently another
pair of twins appeared under the same
roof, this time the infants being boys.

happy and satisfied air, told the lord ana
master that she had named the boys Pete

The proposition to carry on a free silver
campaign in Florida with kind of Buffalo
Bill side show indicates that whoever is
managing the scheme has a somewhat
small opinion of Floridians. The mana
gers doubtless hope to catch voters with
a spectacular display, knowing full well
that they cannot depend upon gaining adj
herents to the declining craze by an APP
peal to reason. But we can tell the free
silver circus managers that the people of
Florida are not to be caught with cowboys

Hardin and BIacIsburn's Mistake.

The kentucky campaign is presenting
some curious phases. Mr.. Hardin, the DEM
ocratic nominee for governor. stands upon
a sound money platform. AT the first meet
ing In his joint debate with Mr.. Bradley.
the republican gubernatorial nominee. he
said he stood upon the platform with both
feet, and yet he declared his adherence to
the l6 to idea. His speech angered the
sound money democrats in the audience,
and If he PERSISTS in maintaining the posi-
ton he has taken he is certain to lose a
large part of the democratic vote. The
sound money democrats consented to his
nomination with the view of harmonizing
the party, believing that If he accepted
the nomination he would make his cam
paign in harmony with his platform. His
failure to do so may cost him his election.
blame.
Mr.. Blackburn is making the same sort
Of mistake. He is counting on his popu-
larity to re-elect him to the Senate. He
claims that of democrats nominated for the
legislature he already has a majority, thus
of the democratic caucus. But many of
those who are claimed by Mr.. Blackburn
as his supporters are sound money men.
They are very friendly to him for per-
isonal reasons, but it is by no means GER
tain they would vote for him for senator
if they should be elected to the legisla-
ture If the lines between the sound money
democrats and the democrats who favor
silver should be strictly drawn, the chances
are they would abandon Mr.. Blackburn.
His boast that he is "all right is thought
to be only bluff" In thinking he is
greater than his party he may be making
the mistake of his life. If he fails In get
tingfa reelection to the Senate he will
drop into obscurity to remain there the
balance of his days.

e Gov. Evans of South Carolina is not
pleased because it costs the state 5000
a month to maintain its force of dispen-
safy constables, and still they are unable
to successfully cope with the blind tigers
of the state. If the expense and the con-
stabulary force were both doubled the
blind tigers would probably continue to
flourish. The chief reason the dispensa-
ry law is not observed is because there is
a great and strong public sentiment
against it-not so much in favor of the
saleilof liquor as against the dispensary
system and the tyrannical manner in
which the authorities have been enforcing
it. A rational local option law would set
tie the whisky question in South Carolina;
the dispensary law will hardly do 1t.

How to Prevent Group.

SOME READING THAT WILL PROVE
INTERESTING TO YOUNG MOTHERS. HOW
TO GUARD AGAINST THE DISEASE.
Group is g terror to young mothers
and to post them concerning the cause,
first symptoms and treatment is the
object of this item. The origin of Group
is common cold. Children who are
subject to it take cold very easily and
Group is almost sure tc follow. The
first symptom is hoarseness; this is soon
followed by peculiar rough cough,
which is easily recognized and will
never be forgotten by one who has
heard it. The time to act is when the
child first becomes hoarse. If Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group viii soon disap-
pear. Even after the croupy cough
has developed it will prevent the
attack. There is no danger in giving
this remedy for it contains nothing
injurious. For sale by L. Stabler & Co.
