NIissouri silver Ticlet RnIed ONT.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, Oct. 26.-The
state supreme court, sitting en- banc, decided
today that the silver party's state ticket
could not be printed on the official ballots
The decision is not yet written out, but 1t
is understood that the petition filed is con-
sidered irregular, it having been alleged
that fully 200 signers had participated in
other conventions. The silver party
ticket was made up of the democratic presi-
Dental electors. and the republican state
ticket 1t was opposed in the courts by
the democratic state central committee

goes to war lie will
ingly and knowingly takes his life in his
hands. Death waits for him on every
hand, and he goes to meet 1t calmly and
fearlessly. He has offered his life, and he
is willing to give it. In ordinary affairs,
a mans life is pledged i'll another way.
He assumes obligations that he must live
to fulfill. Carelessness of health in this
case is worse than undue carelessness
would be in war. It is every mans duty
to preserve his health to the fullest and
to live as long as he can. The sick man
can't do mans full duty in the world.
A man who is weak from loss of flesh,
whose nerves are run down, whose blood
is impure, who shows from his sunken
cheeks and hollow eyes and lingering
cough that he is on the direct road to
death or consumption, can in no way per-
form the full duties of a man. If he lets
these things go on, it is because he pre-
fers disease to health--death to life. He
can be cured surely and quickly by the
use of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. Thousands and thousands of
people have testified to the wonderful
effects of this most marvellous medicine.

SEEDS BORNE FAR by WATER.
Float Away and Give the Parent
Plant Room 10 Grow.

1t is good for plants to keep as much
apart as possible, says n writer in St.
Nicholas. If the seed fell straight to the
ground, and the young plants all grew up
together around the parent one, they would
starve each other out. For plants are like
people and when crowded too closely to-
gether, fall to fighting among themselves.
Their struggles are very bitter ones though
we do not see or hear them The plants
that are strongest in these silent battles
end by getting the light and air and water
and food they need from the soil, while the
poor weakltngs are left to Starve and die.
To prevent too much of this wasteful
crowding and struggling, old Dame Nature
has invented many a clever little scheme.
river banks, their fruits often fall into the
water, and are carried down stream by the
current sometimes finding landing places
on the banks, and so growing up into new
and buckeyes travelling along in this easy
fashion? There are the fruits of the trees
they grow on, Fruit is the part OF the
plant that incloses the seed, with the seed
morning glory seeds are truly fruits as
are apples or Strawberries though we COM
monty use the word only ior those that are
good to eat.
1t often happens that, on small islands in
rivers, trees and flowers are found that do
not grow on the neighborlng banks. These
have come down the river sometimes from
the mountains where 1t rises, In the shape
of fruits, and have found lodging on the
island during high water. Sometimes
fruits are thus borne quite out to sea, and
then they may be caught up by ocean
currents and carried long distances. 1t has
been said that Columbus first formed the
notion that there might he land beyond
the western ocean on seeing some strange
nuts that had been washed to the shores
of the Azores from far away America.
