THE APPOINTMENT OF DEMAS.
When President Mckinley ap-
pointed the negro Demas to be
naval officer at this port, he placed
in the Republican dumping in this
State very obnoxious and dis
gusting spider. The appointment
of Demas has aroused the indig-
nation and resentment of the reg

which is now being heaped upon
the President here and elsewhere

self. Mr.. Mckinley cannot pre-
tend that he was ignorant of the
factsthat Demas was a currupt, un-
scrupulous and tricky politician
and offensive to the respectable
people of his race, bacause the re-
cord OF the man was laid before him
before the appointment was made
out. The truth is Demas has been
rewarded for the work he did in
pulling delegates away who were
pledged to Reed and delivered
them to Mark Hanna at the st.
Louis convention, consequently
the prize, which this disre putable
negro receives for his treachery, is
one of the best and most lucrative

CUR p

To whom it may concern, es-
pecially those who have suffered
from kidney trouble. l have
been a great sufferer from kidney
trouble and catarrh of the blad-
der for eighteen years. Have
he'd several hemorrhages of the
kiddevs attended with a burning
feverish sensation of the bladder,
and severe pains in my hips,
back and shoulder blade, and
could not rest on one side but a
few minutes at a time It was
painful for me to turn on the 9TH
er side. / suffered SO much
last month that I could
not walk across the floor without
suffering great misery. l have
used almost every medicine adj
vertised as good for womcn's all
ments and kidney, bladder and
blood diseases, and drank the
well known mineral waters at the
watering places, and put myself
under the care of various physi-
clans, but in all these treatments
have not felt such an improve
ment as since using DIR. Hobbs
Sparagus Kidney Pills. l do not
suffer so much with rheumatism,
sleep reasonably well, have a
splendid appetite, do not feel sore
in my limbs nor have such an un-
usual thirst for water. The fever
in my bladder has nearly disap-
peared, and | attribute it all to
DR.. Hobbs Sparagus Kidney
Pills and his little liver pills, and
I cheerfully recommend them to
all who have suffered likewise.
AS have felt such q decided
change for the better in so short
a time, I shall continue the use of
his medicines, hoping and believ-
ing if anything will cure me they
will.

Der more and it is worth more to

As I listened I fell to thinking
how much pleasanter life would
be if we all possessed this gift
and grace.
A member of our Bible class
once repeated the legend of the
saint whose life was holy that
the angels were allowed to offer
him any gift he might choose.

"Isn't it strange, said
another, 'tthat we do not speak
words of kindly appreciation
ofGener since we enjoy them our
selves so much?"
Thoughtlessness, preoccupation
in ones own affairs, or the fear
of being considered f1atterers
were suggested as reasons for
this neglect. Thus the talk went

many housekeepers would echo

don't always forget the organist
and members of the choir. After
attending service in a strange
church gentleman stopped and
spoke to the organist, telling him
how much he had enjoyed the
music. The organist thanked
him for his kind words and said,

years, and you are the first per-
son that has ever spoken an APP

Don't let your organist have a
chance to say that. Then there
is the Sunday-school superintend-
ent and teacher. You know they
are doing, a good work. Tell
them SO. They will be happier
and work better. Then go home
and through the week to husband
or wife, to children, servants,
neighbors and strangers, speak
at every opportunity the appre-
ciative word until it becomes
second nature, and you will be
loved because you have the gift
of appreciation and the grace of
