THE GOOSE THAT LAID GOLDEN
EGCS

Ought not to have been slain. Her fate
was wholly unmcritcd. She was most
useful fowl. There are lots of bipeds of
our race who don't know hat rs much as
she did. Conspicuous for their folly
among this class are the people who per-
siStently dose themselves with violent
drugs, which either have a tendency to
aggravate the complaints they are
claimed to cure, or else to cause a most
pernicious disturbance of the system.
Among intelligent physicians the use of
drastic" or violent medicines has passed
away with other fallacies like blistering
and bleeding. The Doctor Sangrados
are an extinct race, happily for mankind.
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is the best
possible substitute for drugs in malarial,
dySpeptic or bilious cases, and when the
kidneys or bladder are inactive, or where
there is tendency to rheumatism. 1t
is also an uncQualled tonic and medicinal
Stimuant.

And now comes Chickamaugn. Hardly
had the revolving car wheels ceased thcir
revolutions in transporting the veterans
who had assembled ut Louisville to their
homes before the bell rang for another
outing of veterans to celebrate the open
ing of the National Park on the battle
fields about Chattanooga.
This is cmphatically period Of war
celebrations. The veterans of each army
are forgetting how to fight with all the
natural hate Of wars invasion, and are
learning how to hand shake and embrace
with all the affection of u reconciliation
that is all the more cordial on account of
the strength given to the rebound by the
force of the original cause. The vctcr-
ans are getting to have nothing else TO
do but to celebrate. They ought not to
have anything else to do. They did their
"do" in the war, and the government of
the United States ought now to abolish
the pension roll and take charge of the
veterans on both sides, providing for
them series of "fetcs" that would oc-
cupy all their time until they crossed
over to the great majority.
Louisville set the government good
example, if il adopts this suggestion
Louisville furnished the best beef and
the best whisky free, and every veteran
on both sides would be satisfied il the

II will not be on account of the lack
of natural and even practical artihcIal
advantages that Austin does not develop
into great manufacturing center, Du'
If il does not it will be because its people
were unworthy of such prosperity, too
weak to keep themselves in the tide OF
prosperity. That will never be, how
ever. Austin has not been resting on It's
oars for some years and it will not cease
to pull for the harbor Of great prosperity
until It is safely anchored there.

the Louisville bill of fare.
The Pops want the government 10
support everybody, the free saver men
want the government to make everybody
take 30 cents for 81, and we only ask
free excursions, free beef and free
whisky for the veterans of both armies

The Republicans have tuned their in.
strumcnts to songs of lamcntation for the
presidential canvass of 1896. What arc
they going to do? They cannot play the
sad music of depression in the face OF
overlooking prosperity. They have no
other tune to play. The same wave of
prosperity has submerged the high tariff.
They tinkcrcd for while with n revival
of the force BILL but the reunions of the
blue and gray in patriotic fellowship were
too much for any hope from the agitation
of the force bill What issues can they
resort to? The Democrats have brought
back prosperity to the country in spite
of the debt hcaping administration OF
Mr.. Harrison backed by the billion Reed
Republican congress. The Democrats
are nttuncd to the loudcst pcans of pros
pcrity with promises Of even greater
by n further modification of the protcc-
tive tariff. The Republicans have but
one issue, and that is an advocacy of
sound money, but the Democrats are
equally sound on that ISSUE and ms far
Ms we can sec the Republican party is
PLAYED out. 1t has outlivcd its usefulness
and has no other pabulum to sustain its
pcrpctuity.

\ physician in a Southern city. who
rejOiceS in the good old name of Elijah,
tells an amusing story Of himself,
which, as he is Il truthful man, is cred
tied and enjoyed by his friends.
He is a member of the Baptist church,
but one sunday morning he went to
the Presbyterian church for the pur-
pose Of hearing an old friend of his
boyhood, who was passing a few weeks
IN the city, and had been asked to
preach.
The physician was Il little late, as
physicians have Il right to be, and on
entering the church just as the text
was announced, he was somewhat star
tied by the apparently personal and di-
rect question, addressed from the pull
pit, What dOest thou here. Elijah?"
The ermon which followed reassur-
ed. him, but in telling the story he al
ways says that for q moment he felt
as If all the blood in his body were in
his face.
