Cheers for Governor EIlerbe.

Governor Ellerbe in his inaugural address
comes out squarely and strongly in favor OF
the dispensary law. He believes the dispen-
sary the solution Of the liquor question.
The great mass OF law-abiding citizens will
endorse Governor Ellerbe in his manly and
fearless declaration in favor Of the best liquor
law that South Carolina has ever had.
The liquor element Of the State will be
sadly disappointed II they counted on him at
friend to the license system. Liquor gets q
black eye in the inaugural address Of Cover
nor E llerbe, and blind tigers may find in II
nothing on which they can base hope.

Largest Arena In the World,

After triumphant tour of Europe during
several seasons, Buffalo Bill and his great
Wild West exhibition was located at Chi
cago, and excited almost equal interest with
the great Worlds Columbian Fair in 1898.
The next year this wonderful exhibition
was given before enormous audiences for
several months at Ambrose Park, New
York. In '95 it toured the principal cities
OF the East, and last year it was seen in the

A Chance OF a Lifetime.

Labor is necessity and skilled labor is
always in demand.
The VERMONT WATCHMAN offers the
chance Of lifetime to any young man or
young woman, who Is anxious to be well
equipped in the battle of life. The condi-
tions are very simple. Arrangements have
been made by THE WATCHMAN to give a
thorough business education to the person
who secures the largest number Of sub
scribers to The WATCHMAN before Septem-
Der 1, 1897.
A life membership certificate in Spencer's
Business College, Kingston, N Y, will be
given to the successful canvasser, which
will entitle him, or her, to instruction in all
branches of Commercial, Stenographic
and Topographic course.
The Combined Life Scholarship, includ-
ing the above three courses, costs $50.
This amount of tuition is given to the sue
cessful contestant, surely an offer worth
contending for.
Each unsuccessful competitor will be al
lowed to retain ten per cent OF the money
he has received for subscriptions, and thus
earnest effort will not be unrewarded.
Persons desiring to compete must notify
The WATCHMAN before June 10.

"There is less hesitation nowadays among
intelligent people in attending to the be-
ginnings of poor health. 1t is we'll known
that disease Is progressive and cumulative,

any organ of the body. II people would
consider headaches, rheumatism, neuralgia,
sleeplessness, indigestion and languid feel
ings in their true light and as seriously as
they deserve to be and make stand against
them at once by means OF Paine's celery
compound, there would be q wonderful
diminution in the amount OF kidney, liver
and heart disease"
Anyone who reads the heartfelt emphatic
letters that have appeared here from men
and women who owe their health and often
their lives to Paines celery compound will
be impressed by the sincerity in every line.
"This great modern scientific invigorator
and health-maker is doing an enormous
amount Of lasting good these June days.
Its success in making people we'll has had
has cured thousands of cases of rheumatism
and neuralgia, many of long standing that
have been despaired Of by friends and ply

Compared with other remedies, its per-
manent cures stand out as mountain does
beside a mole hill. If all the men and wo-
men who have entirely got rid Of nervous

sleeplessness and such organic troubles as
kidney, liver and stomach diseases by its
help, during the past year alone, could be
brought together, what an army of grateful

WASHINGTON, ID. C.-Congressman
Pete j .Otey has distinguished himself by
active aud honorable service in the house of
representatives, where he was sent from the
Sixth district of Virginia. On the floor of
the house and in the committee room he is
q conspicuous advocate OF measures for the
advancement of good government. In what
honor Paine's celery compound is held in
the family of this distinguished legislator
appears from the following letter:
Dear Sirs:-For years have been great
sufferer from nj uralgia, and during the past
winter was advised to try your Paine's
celery compound and used two bottles Of
it with great benefit. 1 was so much
pleased with it that persuaded my brother
John Floyd, to use 1t. He had been having
bad form of nervous dyspepsia, and now
after using the compound for two months, is
80 much improved that we feel sure third
bottle will complete his cure. Every one
has spoken Of the marked change for the
better in his appearance.
Respectfully,
Mrs. Mallie Floyd Otey.
This is one of some 10 or 20 letters from
United States Congressman or members
OF their families, that have recently appear
ed in the newspapers here, heartily recon-
mending Paine's celery compound.
One OF the most eminent physicians in the
city, being interviewed by one Of the papers
says:
"Pane'e celery compound markes a tre-
mendous stride in the cure of diseases.
mo remedy has ever succeeded in driv-
ing out the underlying causes OF nervous
and organic tronbes so surely and rapidly.

at West Georgia was 102 years old. He

extreme old age was the cause of his death.

MOUNT VEsUvIUs is again in eruption
An area of 1900 yards long by 800 yards

activity of Vesuvius, on December 16, 1851,
which emptied the crater, 1t has never again
relapsed in condition Of total quiescence.
At intervals, varying from few weeks or
months to few years, it has broken out
into eruption, sometimes emitting only
steam, dust and scoriae, but frequently also
streams OF lava. The years 1766-67, 1779,

notable prominence and ability, preferably
one who has had previous experience as a
diplomat. 1t is betraying no official secret
to say that the president regards the Span
ish mission as the most important foreign
post which he is called upon to fill. The re-
Spain have received the most thoughtful
consideration from Mr.. Mckinley. 1t is
not true, as has been stated, that he has
definitely decided on Cuban policy, but it
is a fact that circumstances may so shape
themselves that an early adoption of some
line of conduct will be necessary.
