A Deception Easily Practioed.

Is the offer of reward for "any case of catarrh not cured" by certain cures" Nothing is said regarding the number of bottles required, and therein lies the deception. Ely's Cream Balm is an elegant preparation, agreeable to use and immediate in its beneficial re- suits. It cures catarrh. You can rely upon the fact that it contains no mer- cury nor other injurious drug; 50 cents

DOGS.

There are dogs and dogs: dogs quad
ruped, and dogs biped. There are dogs
thoroughbred, dogs mongrel and dogs
OF low degree. Some dogs are pamper-
ed, well fed and clothed. There are
dogs who live peaceably, and even rec
ognize the belligerent rights OF the
whole canine race, but the common
right to eat no dog has ever been
known to yield. he will forage, steal,
or even commit murder to appease his
appetite. It is fair to make a distinc-
ton here. 1t is the four-legged dog who
possesses this reckless instinct. His
cowardly master, though holding many
traits in common, stops at murder. He
only steals. 1t is strange infatuation
some people have for dogs. 1t is partic-
ularly SO because the mania takes
deepest hold on the man least able to
maintain dogs. Now and then there are
exceptions, but the rule is that the OWL
er of several dogs is likewise the father
Of several children, and also the vic
tim Of indolent habits. His income is
small, his exchequer low, and he has
hard pulling to make ends meet. The
paternal instinct somehow prompts
him to try to feed the children, while
his hungry dogs prey upon his neigh
bors. The poor beasts soon advertise
themselves, and their master as well.
They make a daily detour Of the back
doors and the will-pails Of half town.
ship. The poor brutes extend their ter
ritory as the supplies happen to be
short, after returning gaunt and hungry
from too much exercise.
If every created thing has its use,
these poor dogs must be included, like
wise their masters. The starving cur is
a scavenger if nothing more; the mas
ter-but this is a condition Of society.
not a theory. The dogs, like the poor,
including their poor owners, are always
with US. Perhaps they induce watch
fulness on the part of the housekeeper,
especially the servant girl. To leave
her back hair on the back stoop, or her
tooth brush in the kitchen sink would
be at the risk of losing them. 1t en-
courages the habit of locking doors and
picking things up before she retires-
There should be remedy for this dog
curse. Perhaps an asylum or dog
man benevolent institution would meet
the case. A place where the beef bones
cheese rinds, old clothes and sour beer
could be sent by kind-hearted people
might be utilized for the support OF this
suffering fragment Of humanity. The
father and his dogs provided for, it
would require less TO support the fam
ily and so reduce the expense of living.
Wealthy people Of benevolent turn
might consider this. The suggestion is
made gratuitously.

THE PENALTY FOR PETER

| Senator PETER is in great danger or q

must answer for 1t to that legislature
| which Kansas has just elected.
With every opportunity 10 study IL,

passed what Populism is. II has led
Kansas into the company Of Mississippi
and Missouri, it is true. but net for a
love of Mississippi or Missouri, but De-
cause Of dissatisfaction with every
thing and everybody.
Six years ago almost it sent Senator
PETER to the United States senate 10

time Kansas expected Senator Pei1er 10
take Plutocracy by the throat and
choke It into submission. Forsootn,
Kansas did most sincerely believe that
PETER at least would do something on
the TiIlman order-at least denounce.
PETER has not denounced. He has
been a gentleman IN the senate. He has
mildly protested and let it go at that
He has gained among all senators
sort of gentle respect, and no man
among them would stroke the wrong
way one hair Of his head or of his long
beard. He mas not been the Socialist

not rolled a freazied eye and lolled
tongue tipped with fire He has not

cautered like lunatic. And he has not
been satisfactory above all because he
has Won from the great newspapers OF
the country such things as these from

can party because his head was sore or
his heart sour He joined the Populists
presumably, from genuine patriotism.
He was a Union soldier, and entitled to
the presumption of being thoroughly
patriotic. Nature built him on the Pop
ulisf;c pattern. No man in all the coun-
try IS more thoroughly representative
of his party than Senator PETER. But
he is in no small danger Of losing his

PETER is in danger Of losing his head.
All that Kansas has yearned for, PETER
by nature, training and inclination is

ance in him. He is in danger and the
