Howell Jones got the laugh on Rev.
Bernard Kelly at Emporia few days
ago according to the Usage City Free
Press which prints the following story:
"Rev. Barney Kelly was expressing his
opinion of Governor Morrill, in a very un-
christian manner in the Whitley hotel
parlor at Emporia last Friday. Speak
ing of his support of Morrill, in 1894,
Kelly said: Il had better have been say
ing my prayers than supporting him.
Whereupon Howell Jones said: you are
like Lord Wolsey. Had you served your
God with half the zeal you served the
governor he would not now desert you in
your age.'"

Nearly every citizen of Jackson and
Jackson county know or at least has
heard of Mr.. Fred e.. Miller, the owner
of a wood and coal yard on the corner of
Mechanic and Washington streets. If
there is any one thing Mr.. Miller is proud
of it is the fact that eveyone who knows
him or had any dealing with him knows
that his word is as good as his hand
About year aud half ago Mr.. NJ IL
Ter, whose health has always been very
good, began to fail and the food which
he took did not seem to be properly as
simulated. He felt general weakness
overcoming him and he consulted his
physician and took his prescriptions, but
without getting any relief.
But here let us repeat Mr.. Miller's
own statement as made to a representa-
i've of thu Industrial News:

caused severe pains in the stomach.
Sleeplessness, which would last from
three to four nights before l would be-
come exhausted l would fall asleep
towards morning. My business suffered
for the care that / was unable to give it
in my exhausted condition
This stage of my condition did not
come all at once for l carried in my
memoranda a statement that the manu-
facturers of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets
made in the Industrial News for almost
year before l tried the Tablets.
The day began to take them l was
suffering severely, the pains that only a
dyspeptic knows of. In one hour after
taking tablet the pain was gone.
You cannot know my surprise and
pleasure, but from that moment l took
hope and began to study the directions and
diet as recommended. took six boxes
then, tie see if l had been permanently
benefited, I left off taking them and
waited in fear expecting to see the old
trouble return, but to my greatest satis-
faction waited in vain.
In one week from the time l began to
take the tablets l was sleeping sweetly
as baby. The fear of eating was gone.
My food did me good. 1 was happy,
likewise my wife and children aud l
gladly give this testimony. l am As

l am not acquainted with Prof. Nansen
himself, who is man about 80 years of
age, but know his family and relatives
well and am satisfied from what / know
of the disposition of the man and the
conditions surrounding him that he must
have made a remarkable discovery.
''He had no doubt started home when
he was frozen in and it is not strange
that he did not send more definite infor-
nation by the native messengers, as the
natives are not civilized.
'From what l know about Nansen
believe he will make no report until he
reaches Norway. Even though be may
reach other points first, on his way back,
he will wait until he gets within the
dominion of the Norwegian government
before he makes his report.
"The ice usually breaks up to permit
vessels to pass through, about the last of
April although in exceptional early sea-
sons the break up, has occurred as early
as March. In the ordinary course of

way until some time in June and l don't
look for an official report from him be-
fore the middle of June.

Why This Favoritism?

Silver can be proftatly produced inl
this country ut go cents an ounce. 1t is,
now selling here for fraction over SO,
cents.
The mine owners ask, and the Chi,
oago convention is ready to agree, that
the government shall make their prod
uct worth $1.29 for coinage purposes.
Why this favoritism? If the govern
ment-which means the taxpayers--is
to double the value of silver bullion,
why may it not logically be asked to
double the value of wheat, corn, cotton
and potatoes by making an unlimited"
market for them at fictitious price?
The silver product of this country is
relatively of minor Importance. Its real
value in 1895 was about $50, 900, 600.
The copper product was worth $3S, OOO,-
900, pig iron $l05, 900, 900 and soft coal
$115, 200, 000 Why should these prod
ucts be sold at commercial rates and
silver be doubled in money value by act
of congress?
The silver craze is, at bottom, the
most unjust ratcrnalism and the worst
bunko game ever attempted in this
country. New York World.

How to 1,educe a 17ouple Chin.

A doab,e chin can be banished by
correct breathing. The woman with a
short neck must hold her head high,
even stretching her neck until conscious
of the tension of the cords. She should
also practice dropping her head and let
ting it roll liatlossly about. This will
give graceful poise to the head, and
the exercise of the muscles will help
consume the extra amount Of fat Lung
exercises in breathing are the best cure
for excessive stoutness. The best time
for this is before dressing i'll the morn
ing and after undressing at night. Five
or ten minutes exercise every day will
reduce the flesh in wonderfully short
time. Stand erect with the head and
chin well up, and rise upon the toes at
each inspiration, holding the breath
moment, then expelling it forcibly and
completely, coming down on the heels
at the same time. Another good breath
ing exercise is TO draw in a full, deep
breath. Retain the breath while count
ing Is and then slowly expel it.
