To subrlit to all operation, is to volun-
tari,y endanger ones life, without the
slightest hope of being bene+tted.
Mr.. William Walpole, is a wealthy
planter residing at Walshtown, South
Dakota, and is well known all over the
state. Under date of January goth, 1895,
he writes; About thee years ago, there
came under my left eve a little blotch
about the size of a small pea. 1t grew
rapidly, and for the past year, shooting
pains ran in every direction. I became
alarmed and consulted a good doctor,
who pronounced it cancer, and said that
it 1nrst be cut out. This [ would Ii t
consent to, having little faith in tie IN

was alarmed at my condition. Ee44iEg

Cancer is not incurable, but the only
means of curing it is to rid the blood Of
the disease. S.S.S. never fails to do
this, but it is the only remedy to be re
lied upon. 1t is guaranteed purely
vegetable, and cures Cancer, Scrofula,
Eczema, Catarrh, Rheumatism and any
other disease of the blood. Other blood
diseases often develop into such alarm
ing conditions that the doctors think an
operation necessary. Scrofula, for in
stance, often diseases the glands of the
neck to such an extent that an operation
is looked upon as absolutely the only
relief. This is also a grave error, as the
disease is in the blood and a real blood
remedy is the only cure.
An operation never did cure blood
disease. Beware of the knife!

UnfulfilIed.

Morning sunlight ills the room
Where the maiden at her loom,
With hand like fitting snow,
Moves the shuttle to and fro.
While she sings the hours away
Dreaming of the coming day,
When the world with praises sweet
Views the pattern all complete.
Happy birds on buoyant wing
By her open easement sing;
Zephyrs watt from summers bowers
Fragrance sweet from waking flowers
And the sunbeams softly shed
Rainbow hues upon the web;
All the glory of its beams
Mingling with her poet dreams.
But cloud comes DER her way
Soon to hide the golden day,
And mid deepning, dark ming gloom
Falls the tissue from tie loom.
Breathes a voice in sad reproof,
"Life has more of warp than wool,
From its pattern incomplete
AL must disappointment reap.
And the hope and pride of years
Bring but SORROW, pain and tears
But when death the hand has stilled :,
May our dreams not be fulfilled?
And tile Threads unwoven here
Float beyond this earthly sphere,
Where each tiIament and strand
Gathered by an unseen hand
Every tangled thread unwound-
All in place at last be found
In that perfect web of JOY
Earth or time can ne'er destroy?

Bryan O. Lin.

William J. Bryan of Lincoln, Neb. is the
candidate. [Old News.
Bryan O'Lin and his wife,
And his wife and mother,
They all went over
The bridge together.
The bridge broke down
And they all fell in;
1.-The deuce take you ALL"
Says Bryan O'Lin.
Mother Goose.
Bryan O'Lin, Nebraska Bill
Built silver bridge to cross at will,
Over the creek and muddy flats
IW1xt the popuist camp and the democrats
And the rabble crossed it, with shout anG
din
"a noble bridge"
Says Bryan O'Lin.
Bryan O'Lin has a silver tongue,
silver charm round his neck is hung,
And populists, socialists, anarchists, all .
Are ready to follow his beck and CALL
The great Herr Most declares with vim,
That Bryan O'Lin
Is the man for him.
Bryan O'Lin is the candidate
That sponged all other names off the slate
Old silver bugs, with silver hair,
Like "Silver Dick" Bland weren't anywhere
The Teller and Boies went down ker-hop,
While Bryan O'Lin
Came up ON top
Bryan O'Lin pledges speedy relief
10 poor martyred CoXeyites when he is
Chief,
Ard under his reign it is coming to pass,
That no tramps will be ordered to keep of
the grass
"The White House will be, when my reigr
begins,
A refuge for Migrants"
Says Bryan O Lin.
Bryan O'Lins is the dubious place,
or pretty smart lawyer and very bad case
Cheap talk of cheap money and what it viii
do
Is the basis of claims which he knows are
untrue.
All sincerity is lacking, mere talking to wiz
Is a weakness that's fatal
To Bryan O'Lin.
Not far in the future, there lies, perhaps,
The event OF silver bridge collapse;
Its luckless builders depend in vain
On its silver planks as they break in twain
AS the bridge goes down and tley all fall in
The deuce take you all ~
Cries Bryan O'Lin.
Now Bryan OLin may prepare for trip,
Up Salt River with Sewall in Sewai's best
ship,
With silver for ballast, populist crew,
Let the craft make swift progress till lost
from our view
And may this prove to be, sure the wish is
no sin,
The political exit OF
Bryan O'Lin.

ing the war with Japan, he was stripped of
one garment after another till the thing
almost became scandal, was sincere and
profound. Half OF Europe had never even
heard OF Ii before the news came that the
emperor had ordered one of his buttons
70 be cut Oh. From that time he and his
clothes became the gossip of the world.
Lii success in defeating the r. alp ing
rebels marked him ont tor high office At
the present moment he is nearly every
thing that human intelligence can compel
man to be. He is Niceroy of Pc chez
lee, Senior Grand Secretary of State, I'm

Senior Tutor to the Empire, Director
General of the Coast Defence of the North
and of the Imperial Navy, Northern Su-
penntendent of Trade and Ambassador
EXTRAORDINARY. man cannot very well
90 more Tor his country than manage the
army and navy, her hcme and fOrejon
affairs How far he has benefited by the
tenure of his offices nobody quite knows.
One enthusiastic writer declares him to be
as poor as Cincinnatus; another puts his
American. A Chinaman to the backbone.
it probably will not be found that he has
departed far from the elementary lines of
Chinese dishonesty. Lis grand claim to
recognition is his appreciation of the su-
pel1onty OF American and European en-
telprse. He has utilized foreigners to
educate his own countrymen. He en-
couraged their commercial activity to
teach the Chinese the direction of their
best industries. He disliked FOREIGNERS
out determined to put them to the best
use he could think of. He has made it a
business Of learning something from every
oody. There IS no interest, no industry,
no commercial establishment of the for
eigner IN China which he does not mean
IN time to supersede in the interests of
his own people. He created a new army
on foreign models: he built an iron clad
Meet and organized a splendid system of
coast defence; he founded arsenals and
shlp-yalds, military and naval colleges
he lad down railways and telegrar Ii wires
all this against an inertia and bitter con-
servatlsm but family Ineligible to us.
The war with Japan, though it proved the
incompetence and hopeless corruption of
his subordinates, did not invalidate the
general soundness of his policy. His pres
ent tour will probably have the effect of
encouraging him to pursue it still further.
u always keeps remarkably keen eye on
ms country's good, and one may be sure
that he has not come over here merely to
amuse otficialdom with his fine humor
and his opinions of American life and
manners. He will lay America under some
solld contribution to the welfare of his
own country. [Harper's Weekly.

Importance of the crisis which he said
free silver coinage would precipitate by
placing the country on level with Mex
leo and other free silver countries, driv-
ing gold to Europe, thus preventing in
ternaticnal bimetallism, he touched upon
the claims of Bryan that free silver would
benefit common people. The owners of
silver dollars in the event of free coinage
would be bullion owners, he said, and
they could be purchased by working men
only by the sweat of the brow.
''In all of Bryan's speeches." he con-
tinued, she appeals to laboring men, or
plain people, evidently seeking to receive
the support OF those of one vocation by
arraying them against another.
''This is the method of all of the most
dangerous demagogues of our time. They
are the peoples most dangerous enemies
and should be suppressed. They declare
for revolution and anarchy.
"An attack ON the supreme court is no
less menacing to all that law abiding citi-
zens hold dear When the court, COM
posed of men of great learning and unim-
peachable character, shall be packed to
become the creatures of a political fac
ton, where shall We find protection for
lives or property?
HE whose brains and heart are not
broad enough to comprehend the Ameri-
can citizen is not broad enough to pre-
side over the nation. The most serious
and threatening character of the Chicago
convention and candidate is the socialistic
spirit shown.
"The attack on Cleveland for the best
act of his public lite-the suppression of
an insane mob and enforcement of laws
is direct blow at the government, less
bold but as menacng and insidous as the
rebel attack in 81. When they indict
the president for regarding his oath of
office and putting out the fires of sedition,
they but declare for sedition, revolution

Literary News and Notes.

The September number of the Arena
contains "a most interesting paper on 1.-THE
Negroes Place in History by Professor
Willis Boughton OF the Ohio State Uni
versity. Perhaps there is no question of
more interest to the student of social evo-
luton than the rise and fall of the various
races of mankind, and perhaps no race has
occupied larger place in the history of
the nineteenth century than the African
negro. Professor Willis takes a most
optimistic view OF the future of the black
race, which he believes has great posi-
bilites before it.
Harriet Beecher Stowe is the subject of
an important article by George Willis
Cooke in the September number of the
New England Magazine. MI. Cooke,
whose books upon Emerson and George
Eliot lead us to expect good work from
him always III the literary field, writes
upon Mrs. Stowe with true understanding
and admiration, analyzing her character
and the great body OF her literary work to
get at the real sources of her influence
and power. His article, which is Illus
t1ated by many portraits and views OF the
places associated with Mrs. Stoves life,
will be read With unusual interest at the
present time. Warren F. Kellogg, )
