The Time to Sleep.

The truth of the old adnge that ono hour
of sleep before midnight is worth two hours
after midnight is questioned by DIR. Z. p.
Colby who states that he has made some
study of the subject while in tho naval
service during the war. Tho ships com
pany on ship boGrd-officers and men alike
stand four hours watch day and night,
with tho Interpolation of dog watch of
two hours to change the time of each set
of men on successive days. These men
are therefore obliged to get their required
sleep very irregularly, but in moro than
two years observation Dr. Colby could
never discover that the watch officers and
men were not as fully refreshed by their
sleep as were the officers of the ship who
We're required to stand no watch at all.

Populists and Republicans are likely to

doubt whatever that the Republicans will

The last senate had n Democrats Of all
shades, just one-half the body, and the
present senate is Republican in just
about the same way. The result is that
there is no absolute party responsibility.

A LITTLE STORY.

The Boston Advertiser tells this little
story Of one of the battles that was won
for sound money by hard and heartv
fighting. the whole stress and temper
and strength Of which seems nearly for

vivid remembrance:
In the year Of our Lord 1891, an cleo
tion for governor took place in Ohio
The chief opposing candidates during the
preceding campaign were a man named
Mckinley and man named Campbell
The same Mckinley The same Camp
bell The principal issue in that cam
paign was the question Of free and un-
limited coinage OF silver dollars at the
ratio to gold OF 16 to l. Campbell was
the Democratic nominee. Mckinley was
the Republican nominee. The same
Campbell. Likewise the same McKin-
ley, aforesaid. The Democratic platform
contained a free coinage plank: yea,
verify, the regular and regulation 16 10
free silver coinage plank. Democratic
platforms generally did, in that year

Campbell all the way from Cleveland to

LET Us REASON TOGETHER.

II needs mo ghost to come and tell u.s.
that the sooner dyspepsia IS remedied.
the sooner we shall enjoy that right to
which our ancestors laid claim in the
Declaration Of Independence-"the pur-
suit OF happiness" a man blessed with
a good digestion-provided he has enough
to eat-is happy. There are hosts OF
people with ample means to whom the
sole consolation Of a healthy pauper is
denied. Hostetter's Stomach Bltters is
certain, prompt and thorough medlci-
nal agent through the use Of which
sound digestion, and the nerve tranquil
ity which its disturbance causes, can be
recovered. Biliousness, malarial and
kidney trouble, constipation and rheu-
matism are also remedled by this hne
corrective Of a disordered condition OF
the system. Appetite and sleep are
greatly improved by It.

Down in Maine recently persistent
sewing machine drummer tackled a house
in which lived an old bachelor who hadn't
a sewing machine. The agent was per-
sisten and the bachelor Obdurate, until
finally the latter said he positively
wouldn't buy a machine unless a woman

agent hunted around. and in six weeks
had found an elderly but excellent maid
en- lady who had been waiting for some
good man TO speak out TO her, and actu-

the bachelor. Then he made sale OF
a machine Tho bachelor thought he
was lucky. II he had been clever he
would have taken a woman who already
