DEAR DR.-You will perhaps think strange
that have not written to you before this, but
/ thought it was no use to write until L had
something to tell you. Now let me tell You
to tho glory OF our Heavenly Father and to
the credit and skill of DIR. Bye that my face
is entirely healed up. for which l shall ever
feel grateful to you both. Please accept my
grateful thanks and shall not forget to recon-
mend your treatment whenever eau. From
your humble servant, CALEB LAWSON.
NOTE:
The success of Dr. D. NJ. Bye's Combination
Oil Cure for Cancer and Malignant Diseases is
undoubtedly the greatest known III modern
times, or ever known.
The company is curing more real cases Of
Cancer than all the other Cancer Specialists in
the United States combined.
DR.. ID. NJ. Bye, discoverer of the Combination
Oil Cure, after devoting twenty-five years to
the study of malignant diseases, has given to
the world one of the most potent remedies for
the radical cure of those diseases ever produced
by mortal man. Many hundreds have received
the benefit OF these remedies and are now re-
joicing in perfect health, while hundreds of
others are now receiving the treatment; and
all who are afflicted have the opportunity to
avail themselves of it.
DIR. Bye is n great humanitarian and desires
everyone, rich aud poor alike. to receive this
boon to suffering mankind, that they may be
healed aud have their terrible torturing misery
removed and a perfect cure given them. Send
for free book and prices of Oil. Address, DIR.

PENSION DECISIONS.

Assistant Secretary Reynolds has rendered
three decisions in pension appeal cases. In the
first he holds that while the Commissioner of
Pensions is forbidden by law to suspend pay
ment Of pension pending proceedings to an
nul or reduce it, nevertheless, in case such PEN
sion is annulled, all unpaid pension apparently
accrued at the date of annulment becomes il
legal and must not be paid.
IN the second case, the Secretary holds that
the law forbidding the Commissioner to re-
duce pensions without 80 days notice does
not apply to cases acted upon before its pas
sage.
In the third case it is held that as the act
rensoning the children Of a soldier, who are
under 16 years of age expressly provides that
the pensions shall begin from the date OF filing
the application for the pension, claimant who
was over is years old when the act was passed
has no claim for pension at all.

each article. There are stores where nothing
but whole wheat stuffs are sold. and diet lists
without number are circulated among the
households and are abided by most strictly.
One gets little tired OF whole wheat after
conscientiously trying 10 10 of its forms,
but 1t is a good idea, healthfnl certainly, aud
worthy of limited imitation for other COM
munities.
Another love of the New Englsnders not so
sweet and commendable as whole wheat. is
their slavish devotion to smells-to all smells.
To one who believes with Sidney Smith. or
Shakspere. or Ben Jonson. or whoever said it,
that g There is no smell so pleasant as no smell
at all, this devotion is deplorable. The New
England women are particularly lavish with
perfumery, but this is not all. In many of the
houses two Of the rooms-at least. the parlor
and spare bed-room-are kept tightly closed
year in and year out, and one walking through
a room is distinctly conscious of many varying
odors. The soap.dish may be traced instantly
to its lair, pair of shoes or boots does all it
can to emit a well.defned leathery odor, closets
smell of clothes, dining rooms smell of food,
halls smell of wet umbrellas and macintoshes,
cellars smell OF coal and ashes. and the odor OF
cooking utensils is not bsnished from the
kitchen closet This makes it very convenient
in finding things in the dark, and one can APP 4
preciate dogs ability to scent, but to some
folks fresh air has valuable fragrance. If the
New England housewife would but value fresh
air as she does whole wheat, life in her country
might be doubly heathful.
The Pilgrims will not soon forget New Eng
land, where they learn to appreciate Baked
Beans and Brown Bread and Baked Indian
Pudding and "Blueberry" Pic and Whole
Wheat and elm trees aud crowded streets and
old churches and Revolutionary landmarks
and Puritan prejudices and they only hope
that every Convention may be as enjoyable as
the Boston one.

A prominent Cincinnati lawyer and politi-
clan who was in town the other day was conf.
dent that the Republicans would elect their State
ticket in Ohio this year by large majority. He
said that Gen. Bushnell was one of the best
liked men in tho State, and friend of both
Mckinley and Foraker. He was man who
could keep down any friction that might arise
between their followers While Mckinney
would have his home delegation behind him

was of the opinion that Allison was the second
choice of Ohio Republicans. The Democrats

Gen. Buckner also has host of friends, but his
advanced age will no doubt preclude the posi-
blity of his election. Mr.. Carlisle's stand on
the silver question has made him hosts of
