No mystery about it. When the
Shakers offered some time ago to
give away a bottle of their Digest
i've Cordial to any one who might
call at their New York Office, there
was a great rush and a great many
people thought they were crazy,
Subsequent events prove it to
have been a very clever advertising
transaction, for although they gave
away thousands of bottles, it was
in the end profitable; nearly every
one that took a free bottle came
back tor more and paid for it with
pleasure, saying they had derived
better results from its use than
from any other medicine they had
ever used
There is nothing so uniformly sue
cessful in the treatment Of stom-
ach troubles as the Shaker Digest
i've Cordial, and what is better than
all, it relieves at once.

John F. Henshaw, the comedian of "The (New) Nabobs," is no less humorous on paper than on the stage. While play ing a recent engagement a matinee girl fell in love with him and sent her auto graph album to him with request that he write pleasant thought or two in it. This is the pleasant thought or two he wrote:
 Awake the chords that are sleeping
 In thy heart, oh, lady mine,
 And blend thy voice with the music
 In a melody divine.

WINTER AT HAND.

Everybody realizes the approach Of
winter, ana there are some who DO 30
with considerable trepidstion as to Its
eiIecte. Whether or not the season 10
to be severe remains to be ascertained
by experience; although the indiea-
tions are that 1t will partake considera-
bly, OF n rigid character ut lehst In the
earlier part. This suggests that those
who have the welfare OF the poor in
their immediate attention should moi
he slow In meeting the responsibility
resting upon than, but should make
preparations early. And those wha
are fairly well provided for may now
find 1t oppOrtuns to think Of tho cold
cneerlessness OF poverty at such a sea-
son, and OF the brightness that come;
OF charity well-besta and may
ind happiness In their generosity to
the needy. Winter is at hand, but II
is hoped that liberal hearted people
will do their full share In averline
suffering which would come were 1t no
for the display Of divine love exhibit,'
In generous souls among men.

POLICE AND FIRE COMMISSION.

The Mayor has filled the two

mission. As the board is framed now
1t is supposedly composed of two Demo-
Gratis and two Republicans. But wheth'
er they are two TO two or three to one,
there is no mistaking the fact that the
oom mission lie not representative Of the
people who reside here and who pay
the taxes. A section 10 represented,
but another and very considerable
number lie not. Evidently the present
constitution OF the police and fire com
mission has been made for a purpose;
even blind man can see that. Unless
every sign fails the people will soor
realize fully the game that is beiDl
played In municipal afiairs.

THE STORY OF MENIoSE.


Cities that like ours are becoming
famous Tor their beneflcent climate
aad that consequently attract health
seekers afflicted with various diseases
should in timo take lesson from the
experience OF Mentone, France. This
city is situated by tho coast OF the
Mediterranean and enjoys an almost
tropical climate. In later years It has
become a verltable Mecca for invallds,
especially patients suffering from con-
sumption. FSrty yesfs ago the inbst-
itants c. Mentone ard vicinity were a
healthy, Mrong race, to whom the
diseate mentioned was about un-
known. But as wealthy individuals
came TO the place, firmera and labor
ers abandoned their farms AMI work
hops In order 10 make money as
nureea ami walters anu servants.
Thousands OF consumptlvs persons
died in the city and were buried, and
the hacterla-or whatever 1t 10 that
transmits the siokness-wete let loose
In the soil, the air and the water. The
result is that today the whole city and
vicinity are filled with men and wo
men dying Of consumption. Had
there been from the first suflcien'
sapitafy regulations. the story OF Men
tcne would have been different.

NOT REPRESENTING MoRMONs.

In a dispatch from Kansas City,
Mo-, 1t Ia said that "Bishop Andrew
j. Stewart OF the Church OF the Lat
ter.day Saints Of Chih.ahua, Mexico,
is In the city in the interest Of the
Mormon colonies OF noRlhssn Gezieo'"
From time to time there have been
similar references Ia the press dis
patches aud in leading news
papers. The fact Ia thAs Mr..
Stewart is not representing
the Mormon colonies of northern
Mexico in any official capacity what
ever; nor Is he Bishop Of any OF the
ecclesiastical wards In Mexico. He Is
associated with colonization move
ment under his own personal direction,
and so far as We know 1t Is a perfectly
legitimate business enterprise on the
part OF himself and nssoclateF.
But any effort to connect II
with Mormon ooloniz alton In
Mexico, in official association with
the Saints there, Is wrong. Mr.. Stewart
IL, we understand, a Mormon, and IL
deelrous Of securing Mormon colo niat,
for his land grant; bu. all his opera.
