There is much talk in the organs Of

proposed revival of McKinlcyism on q
moderate scale is called; and there is
an apparent belief on their part that
the president can be cajoled or bull
dozed into signing the bill-if the SEN
ate should pass it-on the ground that
it is what he asked for. II it really
were what he asked for there would be
some ground for the belief; but 1t no.
toriously ID not. Calling il an "emer-
gency revenue bill," no matter how
often repeated, cannot blind the intel.
ligent public to the fact that IL il moth.
ing of tho kind. There is not the
slightest reason-beyond Dingley's
grandiloquent proclamation--to sus-
pect that 1t will ever be revenue pro-
ducer; and the grandiloquent proclae
nation is not supported by single
fact. It is absolutely certain, more
over, that if It were 10 become law
within the next six months its first
effect would be to reduce revenue in
stead Of increasing 1t, because Just as
soon as 1t seemed in any degree prob
able that IT would pass. tho market
would be glutted with all the articles
upon which the duty il increased. It

Tired Feeling

Makes you seem "all broken up" with
out life, ambition, energy or appetite.
1t is often the forerunner of serious ill
ness, or the accompaniment of nervous
troubles. 1t is positive proof of thin,
weak, impure blood; for, if the blood is
rich, red, vitalized and vigorous, it inn
parts life and energy to every nerve,
organ and tissue of the body. The
necessity of taking Hoods SarsaparilIa
for that tired feeling is therefore apparent
to every one, and the good it will do you
is equally beyond question. Remember

perhaps do their bodies good and also
clear their minds enough for them to
understand that some things shoald
be let alone.n We call it a Timely
lick" with the troubles of another lost
turtle in mind. Somebody, having in
his hear a love of nature in the orig
inal, brought from Grant river fine
turtle and placed it in the Lancaster
horse fountain basin where it sported
about admired by all, and its presence
lulled into momentary forgetfulness
the harships of our noble beasts of
burden by the happy delusion that
that they once more freely roamed
their wild and native heather; but the
boys could not let the turtle abide in
peace, and finally they swiped it and
carried it away. The only motive a
boy could have in stealing the turtle
would be love of murder: the pleasure
of Killing it to slow music in some Sc
cluded spot where some more humane
person could not interfere in the VIC
TINS behalf. The world will not

that, and he will finally land in jail,
