Some years ago when suffering
with an uncommonly severe attack Of
diarrhoea, Mr.. w. B. Guinnip, of At
co, Pa, received through the mail a
sample bottle Of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy. He
says: II found it to be one Of the
most effective remedies 1 ever used.
1t gave me almost immediate relief.
1t has no superior and 1 think no
equal. No bad effects follow the use
of this remedy. 1t is pleasant to take
when reduced with water and sweet
ened. Children like it. 1t never fails.
1t is the most perfect remedy ever
produced for bowel complaints" For
sale at % and so cents per bottle by
all druggists.

OPPRESSION.

During the last campaign we heard
much about the Oppression" of the
West by the money power of the East.
Just how this money power has OPP
pressed the West is well illustrated by
the case of the Sullivan county New
Hampshiro) savings bank, which has
just had to stop expressing and shut
its doors. The bank was an old one,
and was a place of deposit for the saw
ings of many people who worked hard
in order TO be able to save something
The laws of the State did not forbid the
managers of this bank to invest deposit
tors money in western farm mort
cages, and the greater part of the ac-
cumulated savings lntrusted to the in
stitution was so invested. At the re-
quest of many persons the president

whose honesty and good judgment had

for general and regular wear, so select
a bright blue, a messy bright green, or
a warm tan bark brown The last
named has had great vogue and was
the shade of the garment in to-day's
picture. To be correct, a jacket should
fit jauntily to the figure at the back,
and suggest the moulding of the figure
beneath the arms and over the bust
line but should not follow curves in
front, nor fit the waist This makes a
loose front, that neither bags, "em-
pires" nor Boxes" and yet that sug-
gests all these, and is in perfectly good
form.
A double breasted effect fastening
with a big button on the shoulder and
one at the hem of the jacket, is being
little overdone, for the buttonless rag
ged edge fastening from chin to hem is
not new, though it looks well, and the
very prettiest thing is a fastening a lit
tie at one side, the buttons being just
below a couple of jauntily turned re-
vers. These revers can fold close, the
one under the other, for stormy wealth
er effect The newest collar gives all
the becomingness of the stand up effect
to which we are accustomed, but is so
nicked out at the back that the clumsy
and grotesque highness at the back is
avoided. The pictured jacket was fin
ished by a narrow edge of embroidered
bright braid outlining all the edges but
that of the skirt. Fur used in the same
way is not so new, nor so youthful and
jaunty, but, whatever you select for
finish, jacket you must have.

deceived by western loan agents, and
about three-quarters Of the money has
been lost. The banks deposits amount
ed to $1,250,000, and as the agent of per-
sons who were not depositors the pres
idert invested 100000 more. 1t is re-
ported that scarcely any of the money
for which he is responsible as an agent
rather than as bank officer can be re-
covered, Nearly all of this money was
owned by persons of small means
Woodworking farmers, factory en-
ployes, widows, orphans. There We're
included the school and library funds
of Claremont, New Hampshire, and
$4,000 of the funds of the Episcopal
Church. The loss will cause much suf-
fering. For example, a widow eighty
years old, whose savings have been
swept away, must so to the poorhouse
A woman of sixty-five years, who had
laid by $4,000, the savings Of life of
hard work in the factories, now has
nothing for her old age. The county
authorities say that they must provide
during the coming winter for many
worthy persons who have lost all they
had. The fact seems to be established
that the money was lost because the
officers of the bank relied upon the rep

parture in Jamaica trade is due to the
great depreciation in the value of
sugar. That the island is capable OF
producing enormous quantities of these
fruits is evident from the fact that last
year the grower chiefly interested in
this new enterprise shipped no less
than 100000 punches of bananas to
New York and oranges in equal pro-
portion. After paying the American
duty a considerable part of these car
goes of Jamaica fruit is reshipped to
England. Knowing this, a number of
English capitalists have formed COM
pany which will undertake to carry
the Jamaica fruit direct to the English
market. In this way the cost of freight
VIII be much diminished, and that part
of the profit which has gone hitherto
to the American middleman will be
saved. Five steamers have been char
tered by the company, fitted with re-
lIlSStdtor space SuLlcleII W Holo q
cargo of 10000 punches of bananas and
an equal number of cases of oranges.
Special men, skilled in the manage
ment of the cooling chambers, will be
carried on board each vessel, and it is
confidently expected that the fruit will
arrive in England in as good condition
as it is apt to be in when it reaches the
United States. II the experiment sue
ceeds, it is hoped that the prosperity of
Jamaica, which has been affected
greatly by the depression of the sugar
trade, will be restored.

IN ELECyRIC cor.
country.

Many people know that a goat can
give shocks, but it will be news to them
that a goat which can give electric
shocks has been discovered. This cleo
trio goat is located in Fresno, Califor-
mia, and can fairly be claimed as anoth-
er of the evidences of the glorious eli
mate of that region. To make people
sure that there is such a goat the name
of it's owner and the circumstances sur
rounding it's discovery and use are
faithfully and particularly given. Some
time ago the animals owner, B. G.
Hensly. discovered that the other ami
mails who were the companions of this
goat studiously avoided the latter.
One morning Hensly took Billy by the
horns, when he was amazed by receiv-
ing an electric shock that knocked him
over Subsequent experiments showed
that the goat was an electric battery
the horns being the poles. In the night
the tips of the horns CLEAN with light,
and if steel wire be so placed as to
connect the horns sparks are emitted
as from dynamo. But that is not all
the wonder. Mr.. Hensly has a mother
in-law who has been paralyzed for a
number of years. 1t was very natural
and thoughtful on his part to conceive
the plan Of trying the goat on his
mother-in-law. The result has been
her complete recovery by the sys-
tematic application of the electric cur
rent from the horns of the wonderful
goat.
This wonderful goat is said to be
making money for it's owner as heal
err Perhaps when all the western peo-
pie are cured it will come east. 1t
would do d large business in the East,
where people are Intelligent enough to
appreciate its scientific quality.

Most of the people of this region have
already had one Thanksgiving Day this
year. That was the day after the cleo
ton when they realized that the coun-
try had been saved from the peril that
threatened it. They will perhaps not
feel as warmly thankful to-day as they
did then, for they have had time to
get over the first rush of joy and graft
tude, but they have not yet forgotten
their fear and their relief, and they
will be more really thankful to-day
than usual. And those who cannot feel
thankful for the result of the election
can join with the governor of Arkansas
in feeling thankful "for the privileges
yet preserved to us of still persisting
in our task of making those now CROP
ing in the darkness of selfishness and
error know the right, and knowing,
dare to maintain it." So we can all
be thankful for "the state of the coun-
try Most of us, too, can find reason
for thankfulness in personal matters,
and it is within the power of most of
us to make somebody else thankful
Those who take special pains to make
somebody else thankful to-day will
have the best Thanksgiving. 1t will be
especially fitting not to forget in an
excess of thanfulness over "the state

of those who live in this part of the

Consul General Crittenden reports
from Mexico that Mexican tobacco
may take the place of the fine grades
of Cuban tobacco in the markets of
the world. The report is an exhaustive
review of the tobacco resources of
Mexico, and presents the subject in a
new and important light. General
Crittenden makes no. mention of the
Cuban war as a cause of the depletion
of Cuba's tobacco product, but he
points out that under normal conditions
Cubas soil has become impoverished
until it can yield no more. Under these
circumstances, the consul general says,
the worlds requirements of what are
generally known as Havana cigars
can be supplied only through the use of
Mexican leaf tobacco.

two established religions, the Anglican
and the Scotch Presbyterian, while the
government also helps the Methodists
and the Roman Catholics. The colon

high a price to pay for what they re-

present systen for eighteen months
only, instead of the usual seven years.
