When War is Declared

Against mans happiness by his stomach,
enemy may be pacied and brought speedily
and easily to terms. That potent regulaor,
of digestion, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters
disciplines the rebelious organ thoroughly.
Indigestion arises from weakness OF the
stomach and the food In 1t, for want of the
power to digest, decomposes and acidfies,
giving rise to heartburn, flatulenee and pain
besides multitude of symptoms both
chaDgeful and perplexing. But peace soon
reigns when the stOmachic Is resOrted to and
used with persistence. Dyspepsia gives a
rise to morbid discomposure of mind. and
even sleeplessness and hypochondria In
chronic cases. To the complete dismissal of
these the Bitters Is fully adequate. Liver
complaint. constipation, debility, rheuma-
tism and malaria are completely subdued by
this genial medicine.

A Revolution in Cheap Solid Literature.

A Revolution in Cheap Solid Literature.
The Forum, year ago, took the bold and
unprecedented stand OF reducing IS price
from S5 year to S3-the first instance of
so solid periodical being put forth at so
popular price. Literature OF this class has
always been high, because it is written only
by the very best writer's and because there
had hitherto been but comparatively small
reading public that was thought to appreciate
it. The Forum proceeded on the SUPPOSE
ton that the spread of intelligence and the
ever increasing independence of thought in
the United States, opened up very much
larger field for serious literature CT the very
highest kind than had ever been suspected
1t tried the very bold experiment. therefore,
of reducing its price by half. The year
since this reduction in price was made has
beeh the duilest year in two decades. Yet
the increase of circulation and influence has
been so great that The Forum has already a
larger circulation than all the other Ameri-
can, non-illustrated monthlies put together.
1t has made the discovery that the number
of serious students OF important subjects is
very much larger in the United States than
anyone had supposed and very much larger
than the number in any other country. The
Forums circulation in the United States is
larger than the combined circulation Of the
three great British Reviews in Great Britain
larger than any similar periodical enjoys
anywhere in the world.

Tennessee's sunday Law.

Several Tennessee Adventists VINO
were convicted for working on Sunday
were fined from 50 to $3.50 each. All
refused to pay as matter of princi-
pie, and went to Jail. The Adventists
believe that Saturday, not Sunday, is
the proper day to observe. and as they
keep Saturday sacred. they make it
point to work on Sunday.
We think they are over-zealous.
The Jews observe Saturday. yet the
better class of them abstain from their
usual avocations on Sunday. through
respect for the Sunday laws.
There is no reason the Adventists
should not do the same. The state
has power to establish a weekly day,
and in so doing it wisely selected thg
day considered sacred by the great
majority of its citizens. 1t is the duty
of the minority. whether they are inf
dels. agnostics. Jews. Mohammedans
or Adventists. 10 submit to the will of
the majority in this matter. precisely
as the minority submits to the major
ity at an election.
The state has no power to give the
weekly rest day religious character.
That must depend on the individual.
1t may ordain that all shall abstain
from labor on a certain day each
week: but. so that he obeys this law.
the individual may spend the time in
any manner he sees fit. There is no
constraint upon the Adventists to de-
vote the day to religious duties, or to
hold it sacred. The law does not
compel them to observe the Christian
Sunday, any more than it does to OBJ
serve the Jewish Sabbath. 1t merely
declares that no one shall perform
labor on Sunday: and there is no good
reason why the Adventists should not
obey that law. Their claim that it is
a matter of conscience not to obey it
is absurd.

A NEW BUSINESS.
To Buy Chickens for the
Big Cities.
\ Ready Market for Chickens. Geese.
Ducks and Turkeys to be Es-
tablfshed in this City.

Gentlemen arrived here the other
day to look for location to establish
a business that will be new to this
section OF the country. They want to
establish poultry packing house and
they say Cape Girardeau is cOnven-
iently located for an enterprise of
that kind. The business of the enter
prise will be to purchase poultry,
dress it and ship in refrigerator cars
to st. Louis, Chicago and New York.
The gentlemen say they can handle all
the poultry in this section. They will
pay the highest market price in cash
at all seasons of the year.
The enterprise will require cOnsid-
cradle capital and it will be a big
thing for the farmers who often have
to sell their poultry at prices that are
outrageOusly low.

Money struck bY LIghtning.

Fragments of 4 two-dollar treasury
note were presented at the sub-treas-
ury for redemption yesterday by a
resident in one of the counties of
Maryland.
This was struck by lightning" he
said. as he exhibited the two peices OF
the note The note had apparently
been burned lengthwise through the
middle. leaving the top and bottom
margins. The burned portion that was
missing was from a half to one and
one half inches wide. The edges of
the remaining parts were charred.
The man said his home in the coun-
try was recently struck by lightning;
that the note was in a cupboard at the
time. and that the lightning. entered
the cupboard, burning the note as de-
scribed.
The number and seal on the parts of
the note were legible and genuine and
consequently the note was rendeemed.

TRIPTO THE COUNTRY
Saw a Fine Country and
Fine Crops.
Through the Best Agricultural POr-
tfon of Cape Girardeau County
"A Prosperous and Cour-
teOus People,

AdOlph Ruediger. President of the
Cape Brewery x Ice Co.. returned
home Thursday evening from a trip
through the north part of the county.
He was accompanied on the trip by
+. II. Engelmann. William .Regen-
hardt. Peter Lehner, William Paar
and John Thomas.
Mr.. Ruediger was delighted with
the country he saw and the people he
met. He says he never saw finercrops
growing than he saw on this trip. In
fact, says Mr.. Ruediger ''the crops
are so immense that the farmers will
not get through taking care of them
before Christmas unless they can en-
plOy additional help" The party
visited Appleton, Oak Ridge, Fried
helm. Frona, Attenburg and Pocahun-
tas, and the merchants of these thriv-
ing villages were found busy as bees.
The towns are surrounded by rich
agricultural country and the farmers
are all well-to-dO. They patronize
their village merchants and thus help
to make their section of the country
prosperous.
The people. Mir. Ruediger says, are
kind and courteous and are always
pleased to meet strangers in their
midst. Mr.. Ruediger made this trip for
business as well as as for pleasure and
we are pleased to learn that he has
secured the trade Of the saloon-keep-
ers in the villages he visited for the
celebrated Cape Beer. Some of these
solOon-keepers have been sending one
hundred dollars or more per month
to the big English syndicate in St.
Louis for beer. They had never been
called on before and asked to patron
iZe our home brewery, but they will
hereafter sell Cape Beer and they are
glad to be able to get their supply of
beer in their own county.

LOW RATES.
On Wheat Shipped to
jackson.
Col. Tiedemann has secured Low
Freight Rates for the jackson
Mills.

The consolidated mills of Jackson
are reaching out for wheat. Col.
Tiedemann has secured special low
rate on wheat over the Iron Mountain
railroad and he has agents travelling
all over Southeast Missouri buying
wheat. This week the Jackson Branch
of the Iron Mountain road hauled
thirty-eight car loads of wheat to
Jackson in one day. They are getting
wheat from every shipping station on
the Belmont Branch of the Iron Noun
tain as well as from towns on connect
ing roads. The Iron Mountain can
afford to give the Jackson mills low
rate on wheat for that road gets two
hauls out of it. 1t hauls it to Jackson
and then after it is manufactured into
flour it hauls the flour to the Southern
market.
The managers of the Jackson mills
are wide awake. energetic, up to date
business men and they are preparing
to get corner on the wheat in South
east Missouri. They do not pay any
more for wheat than the mills of Cape
Gira~deau pay. but they do more
hustling. They go after it, and they
are getting all they can handle. Farm
ers west of this city who used to haul
their wheat to our mills now haul to
Gordonville and Dutchtown and sell
it to the agents of the Jackson mills
and the wheat is shipped by rail to
Jackson. The farmer is glad to have
a market near at home for his wheat.
He saves time in hauling and he saves
for while he may not get quite
so much for his wheat near at home
he does not go to the city where he
would spend some money.
We are pleased to see our Jackson
millers reaching out for business: and
we are pleased to note the fact that
they are getting business.

THE WOMEN OF INDIA.
Mrs. Annie Besant Tells of Their
Peculiar social Conditions.

Mrs. Annie Besant's observations
of women in India. during a recent
visit to that country. led her to think
them very Intelligent, and. while their
standards and methods of education
differ materially from those in other
countries. according to their own es-
innate of learning. many Of the wO-
men are highly educated. Reading
and writing are not a part of their
education. however. as all their
knowledge is acquired from ''Pu n
dts who go from house to house
every week to give oral instruction
in philosophy and literature to the
entire household. so the memory is
wonderfully strengthened by this
process of training the mind quickly
to grasp and retain all the infOrma-
tion entirely independent of books for
reference.
India women are peculiarly sim
pie and childish in character, yet
very different from other Europeans
of the same class. Northern and
Southern India, says Mrs. Besant,
are two distinct countries in all the
laws and customs which effect wo-
men. In the north the ''Purdah'' is
in full power. and the women look
upon any publicity as an outrage.
while IN the south their position is
quite different, yet men and women
do not meet freely in society. Mothers
and grandmothers have great in
fuence and authority in the family
and home life. and in outside affairs
as we'll. for an Indian will not act in
d public matter against the advice of
either one. In Southern India very
young children are married. and il
the infant husband dies his youthful
widow can never marry again.

EUROPEAN IDEAS OF WOMEN.
People of the Old World DO Not Tn
derstand American WomanhoOd.

We all know what England and other
countries of the Old World think of
the American girl, who has been pub
licly described, discussed. analyzed
increasingly over there for the last
few years. What the transatlantic
opinion of our women generally has
not been so freely divulged, and is
not. therefore. familiar. But educa-
ted Europeans, notably Britons.
Frenchmen, Germans, Italians, wheth-
er they have travelled here. or observ-
ed our wandering sisters abroad,
make no secret of their views: are in
clined. indeed, to seize occasion TO
enlighten us on the subject.
Their concurrent testimony is that
our women are spoiled-spOiled by
the constant fiattery, indulgence and
homage of all their masculin kindred.
associates and acquaintance. They
deprecate the concessions continually
made to them, the special favor always
shown them. the anxiety displayed to
conciliate them. Our friends across
the water say that they are treated as
superior beings: that what We call our
appreciation of them is little lese than
worship: that it Injuries US as we'll as
them: that it will. in time. injure both
irreparably. They are in dead earn
est. and seem to be deeply troubled
that we do not establish much need
ed reform.
Europeans base their idea OF our
treatment of our women on their treat
ment of their women. Between the
New World and the Old World there
is. in this respect. marked difference
certainly. Their view is one of COM
parison. If they are right, we must
be wrong. We are entirely conscious
of the great consideration we give
women. of the difference we pay them.
We do not regard ourselves as in eX-
cess. but the Europeans as deficient in
this regard. They should initiate our
example. we hold, not We theirs.
which. to our mind. would be retro
gressive. We are epained when abroad
at the degradation of the sex in the
rural regions: AT their lack OF educa-
ton and opportunity: at the manner
in which they are kept down. The OLD
world seems to consider women infe
rior: its conduct toward them indicates
this: and many foreigners avow it.
and insist on il. We put women on
our level. and do the best we can 70

point. in Defendfnc Murderers.

There are three favorite ways Of de-
fendiug man accused of murder. The
first is TO set up an alibi: the second is
to allege that the homicide was CON-
mitted in self-defense: the third is. to
claim that the victim died not Of vio-
lepce, but of desease. The gunshot
wound. it is contended, would not have
proved fatal if there had not been a
akness Of the heart The sledge-
hammer blow from the defendant S
fist would not have caused death ii the
brain had not been weakened by alco-
holism. This third kind of defense,
especially resorted to in a case where
one ruhian kills another. since it is al
most always easy to prove that the
victims habits were such as must
necessarily weaken physical vitality.
