For q Few Weeks.
The Daughters Health Will Soon
Return.

Languor Will Disappear and Nervousness Go.
Mothers with daughters that are yet
young often ask themselves:
"How can my girls be saved from ner-
vOnsness and lifelong weakness?"
1t falls to the mother with her clear,
thoughtful eyes, to see that the health and
future happiness OF her daughters is not
sacrificed to excessive study, or to any un-
necessary excitement. The signs of falling
health and weakness: Pale cheeks. languid
behaviour, colorless lips, growing thinness,
irritability-all these ring alarm in her
mind, for they point, each with its separate
finger, to but one cause-thin watery blond
and an already impaired nervous system.
toms of such tendency to change this I'M
fortunate habit of the body. The real nerve
food, Paine's Celery Compound, il used
with the attention to regularity that any
able physicians prescription requires-iths
remarkably effective blood maker and nerve
food is the formula OF no less eminent
scientist than Prof. Edward Z Phelps, M.
d, L. l.. d., of the Dartmouth Medical
SCHOOL,, if taken as Prof Phelps urgently
advises, is sure to cause forthwith clearly
observed change in the tired, badly nour-
ished body. -' @ ors.4ts, IL rpfc Hs,to,r.
A single week viii show that the ''run-
down" system is appropriating more of the
food that is taken into the body, and rapidly
building up the weakened parts. Languor
will disappear; the spirits will be raised; the
nervous affections, dyspepsia, neuralgia,
and depression that went with the former
exhausted condition, will no longer afflict
the nerves.
For everwrOught worried parents, for
thin, pale children, for the aged who are
most apt to be afflicted with rheumatism
and sleeplessness, and for any who lack
strength there is nothing that progressive
physicians rely on so invariably as Paine's
celery compound. 1t makes new blood. 1t
stores the nervous tissues all over the body
with fresh material. 1t builds up the brain.
1t cleanses every bit of harmful humor from
the blood and sends it briskly through the
arteries laden with food for the deepest,
most vital tissues.

Which Side Was Right?

From the Detroit Journal.
Looking back oyer the campaign of 1892
and recalling the arguments and promises
and predictions of the democratic orators
and organs. the platform with its ringing
declarations tor reform, etc, the people of
the United States may well wonder ii it is
possible for political party to hit wider of
party has done in its attempt to fulfill its
pledges and prove good its politics. The
difference between its promises and its per-
formances has been measured, the falsity of
its arguments and predictions has been
demonstrated, and today the democratic
party finds its strongest condemnation in
the record it has made. 'foa
On the other hand In looking over the
campaign of 1892 from the republican side,
we find the republican papers and speakers
were guilty Of no extravaganza in the use
OF words to explain what the election of
democratic president and a democratic con-
gress would mean to the industrial and COM
mercial interests of this country, and to the
whole people. What they did say was
Kissed and booted by the opposition as
partisan claptrap. yet the dreful results
then predicted were not one-half as serious
and far-reaching as have been actually re-
allied from the change ordered in 1892.
This fact Is verified in the mind OF every
man who has memory that can be trusted
for two years and few months.
The man who came the nearest to the
truth in forecasting what would happen In
case the democratic party came into full
control of the government was James G.
Blaine. Very few republicans predicted
such direful consequences as did he, but
time has proven that he did not overdraw
the picture in any of its details.

The first time I saw Abraham Lin

me shall never forget. 1t was in the
days of my early youth, just before the
civil war, when had already been i'm
PEELED by some unknown though adj
verse influence to enter journalism in q
southwestern city on tho border.
Lincoln had very recently emerged
from comparative obscurity into nation
al reputation through his memorable
canvass in Illinois with Stephen A.
Douglas for the United States senator
ship and had been defeated. He visited
the city where then lived as pro-
spective candidate for the presidency
and had announced to speak on the
issues of the forthcoming campaign, the
long deferred struggle between freedom
and slavery. The public was eager to
hear him, for it had read his famous
debates with Douglas as reported by the
press, and no had in consequence an i'm
mense open air audience. The reporter
who had been assigned to tho meeting
failed at tho last moment to appear. and
went in his place rather reluctantly,
admit, for I cherished a most violent
prejudice against the man on whom I
had never laid eyes. Like Charles Lamb,
I had damned him at q venture.
The cause Of the prejudice was that,
though native New Yorker, had been
reared in tho southwest. had had
southern boys as chums at college. I
had been much in the cotton states, and
/ was the son of a strong Wing. The
Wing party had always favored and
been in sympathy with the south (they
we'll deserved the name dough faces),
and had been bred in my fathers po-
litical school, which as a boy had ac-
copied unhesitatingly. The very name
of abolitionism was detestable to me.
had a place very near Lincoln on
the balcony from which he spoke,
though expecting to give only an alb
stract of his address, for tho newspaper
represented. was opposed to him and
his convictions. He moro than realized
my anticipations. Hc was, thought,
tho ugliest, most awkward, most COM
mon looking man had ever seen. To
imagine him president of tho republic
almost made me shiver. The first words
he might speak would, felt sure, repel
me even moro than his personal appear
ance had.
That long, lank, disjointod figure,
half leaning on the iron railing, that
sallow, angular, unsymmetrical face,
those few clumsy gestures still live in

Good Roads.

Another feature of the present road law

been demonstrated time and again that much
better work can be done by day labor with
the commissioner TO oversee the work. The

contract labor is so poorly done that we are

In all such cases as the above the clerk and
supervisor, acting with the commissioner,
determine the manner and kind of work to
be done. Why not amend the law SO that
tine town board will have the power to con-

What woman can be is thus
described by the Colorado Sun: A
woman can be SO mean and she can
be so nice. She is seldom between.
She is mean all the way through
when she worries a man about her
petty jealousies and mean insinu-
tions. She is nice all the way
through when she gives him a
word of encouragement for his good
deeds, and in this way induces him
to do better. She is mean all the
way through when, because of her
extreme vanity she makes another
woman suffer. She is nice all the
way through when, out of the
goodness of her heart, she gives
another woman joy. She is mean
all the way through when hospital
ity is trouble and corteous words
a bore. She is nice all the way
through when she speaks pleasant
words every day and finds no
trouble in being gracious. She is
mean all the way through when
she holds up her husband or chill
dren to ridicule, She is nice all
the way throug when che finds out
the best that is in them and en-
courages it and them until they are
better than good. Sometimes she
is a combination of meanness and
Iniceness, and the one that comes to
the surface will crowd out the other.
That's what we women want to
pray for. To lose all the mean
ness and be as nice as we possibly
can.

Senator Burrows predicts that
the coming congress will be oblig-
ed to take some action in regard to
Cuba. And the best action it can
take, provided it believes that we
must have the island under our
flag, is to make Spain a square,
spot-cash otfer--say of $50, 100000
for it. That would be much
cheaper way of getting it than by
provoking a war with Spain. But
the best way to do is to pass reso-
lutions of sympathy with the in
surgents and let it go at that.
Anything further than that would
depict this government as carrying
a chip on its shoulder on behalf Of
all the dissatisfied people on this
continent.

Concerning the Importance of
wearing heavy woolen undercloth-
ing, the Philadelphia Ledger says:
The warm days Of Indian summer
make us careless Of flannel and fur
mace fires. 1t is well to get rid of
both for awhile, but the flannels
should be at hand and the fires all
ready to light, for the cold snap
may mean heavy doctors bill to
the unprepared, In all cases the
fannels should not be forgotten,
and they should never be of infe-
rior quality--it is more economical
to ges the best and by care make
them last longer, and it is more
hygienic as well. Econmize on the
hat and coat and dress, but spend
all you can on really good wooden
or silk underwear.
