SOWING DISCORD.

1t occurs to many patriotic people in
this country that in his addresses as he
goes through the country, Mr.. Bryan is
sowing a variety of agrarian seeds that
will sprOut and grow in the future in
such way as to seriously disturb if
they do not lead to the destruction of
our system of free government, it mat
tiers not whether he is elected president
or not. This opinion is expressed, not in
spite against Mr.. Bryan, but in COM
passion for the people and the country

democracy fooled the populist convention
into the nomination of Bryan at st.
Louis. The fact is now patent that
they meant to do it and by their tactics
they intend to wipe out the populist par
ty, in which you found so much virtue
and true patriotism, and you are the very
first man to desert the populist ranks and
welcome them to build upon the ruins
of the populist party. Well may they
exclaim, "Et tn, Brute"

FEEDING 4 BABY.
A Physician Says Many Of Them Are
stuffed Ont of Existence.

Babies are put through some very try
ing processes, Thousands of them are
literally fed to death. A medical sIatis-
tician who knows what he Is talking
about. says that for one case of actual
starvation or suffering from lack of food.
there are ten thousand babies that are
positively stuffed out of existence. Their
mothers n nurses, bless their hearts,
are so anxious that the little ones shall
lack for nothing hat they force food upon
them when they do not need. 1t. and Use
when they know they have had enough.
Anon the chief causes of disease among
children are too requent feelings, too
much food. and that in a highly concen-
t1ated state
Not long since a physician was called in
to attend a baby that was restless, cry
ing, fretting and made life a burden to
the family by its crossness. There was
no apparent disease, except slight fever
ishness and some bloating of the stomach.
After a careful survey of the case, the
doctor asked what the child was fed upon.
"A number of prepared foods were men,
toned. and he found that the baby was
actually getting enough nourishment to
supply the needs of n ordinary adult in
good health. The baby's liver was being
worked to death. the stomach was dis
tended and the assimilation overtaxed
INTO an infantiIe pate de foie gras. The
doctor cut down the supplies to about
~qua of the usual amount, and left
the most rigid instructions as to the care
of the little sufferer.
He says that few people realize that at
birth a chi1d's stomach can contain little.
