Our fellow townsmen, c. c. Bingham
and Boynton & Eastman, the druggists,
did not expect so soon to get favorable
reports from applicants who procured
from them free samples of DIR. Hobbs
Sparagus Kidney Pills.
The tests made so far by the users OF
the free samples, show that these
remarkable pills produce favorable
results with degree OF quickness hereto
fore unknown in the treatment OF Kid,
nev, Bladder and Blood diseases and
allied ailments.
Those who have used them have been
encouraged to persevere with the treat
ment, knowing that they could not
expect the five days treatment contained
in sample box, Notwithstanding the
remarkable results obtained so far,
would effect a complete cure. Kidney
disease is of imperceptible and insdious
growth: it takes months to develop
even the symptoms. Reason and expert
ence suggest that it takes more than a
few days to cure. Fortunately, DR..
Hobbs Sparagus Kidney Pills begin the
good work OF cure with the first dose.
The results are evident from the begin
ming. The delightful effects of these pills
induce the patient to continue their use
until cured. They are easy to take, easy
to buy, easy to get, and bountilul in
good results.

A raw egg, taken Immediately, will

White of egg, beaten up with loaf sugar

the advantages that have arisen from
our restless spirit. Among other things
it has aided in the maintenance Of one
language in general use. The children of
immigrants in our public schools learn
the language and the deeds of Washing
ton and4 Jefferson, OF Webster and OF
Clay. The home training in the tongue
of the foreign, Fatherland is trifle COM
pared with the American influence OF
school books, and the playground; for
it is hard to exaggerate the ties OF Ian
guage There ave been instances in our
history where whole counties in the
Northwest are exclusively Scandinavian
but the condition lasts only for a time,
by the reason OF the children's learning
our general tongue. Strange though it
may sound, there are fewer definite dia-
lects in our whole country than can be
found in Great Brtain-a kingdom that
could be almost packed away i'll one
state, New York. Yet in that small
country a Dorset man of low rank could
not understand Scotchman, and a
Cornishman would be practically for
eigner to both; but the national life in
the most remote corner of our Texas is
the same that courses in the piney woods
Of Maine, and the language is the same.
A wise and travelled Engishman who
landed in this country for the first time a
few weeks ago, stated to me that nothing
impressed, him here so much as the fact
that journey of 5000 miles overland,
and S,000.miles around brought him to
the same language, while journey OF
one hour to the continent of Europe,
carried him into entirely strange condi-
tions.
But the extension of territory and the
forward movement OF the people will
come to an end. In fact the end already
is in sight, and the tide Of population is
setting back upon the older states like
the back-water Of flood. A new cen
fury and new conditions confront us.
The call is for those who feel deeply and
think broadly, to guide our destinies as
we stretch forward to the unknown.
Now territory alone is insufficient for
the continued greatness of any country.
A concrete example is China with vast
area and teeming millions; all holding
together like pile of brick, simply by
reason of weight and not because OF any
actual union between them. Wealth
also is no guarantee; for if so why are

we called on to record the almost COM
plete decay Of Spain, though wealthy be-
You'd hearts desire two centuries ago
The Hindoo princes, puppets in power,
swaddled in the lap OF wealth and sur
rounded by the flashing glories OF gems
illustrate again the ooishness Of
resting on wealth for perpetuity. Terri
tory is nothing without national char
acter. Wealth is as much. Further
more, they that have relied upon the
sword have persisted by it. Alexander,
the Great, made no permanent enlarge
ment OF Grecian territory; the Hebrews
under David gained the full limits OF their
territory and enjoyed it only during one
reign the Roman Empire crumbled from
mere weight as soon as unse6sh devo-
ton was withdrawn. Any widely read
reader can multiply combinations.
The wise will consider these things in
their hearts as well as their heads.

Some Rambling Thoughts.
BY "NEMo."
(Copyrighted.)

Our country is so vast, and its range
of products and of climatic conditions so
extraordinary, that the greatest sale
guard up to this time against fatal sec
tionalsm has been the tendency of both
early and late immigrants to move from
one place to another subjugating new
territory, and forming new states.
Nature DEGREES that the material interests
OF Montana, for instance, shall differ
from those of the sea-board states, but
the travelled condition Of many thous-
ands OF Montauians guarantees an
expression OF opinion on their part
regarding public affairs distinctly more
national than could be expected from a
population narrowed to views purely
local. For small nation, restricted in
both space and possibilities great patr.
otto results may come from inhabitants
who do not choose to wander; but for
us, not crowded by neighbors, nor meas
ured in any direction by less than ten
hundred miles, the best promise of endur
ance is found in increasing knowledge of
one another's needs and problems.
We have been subjected to such a ire
mendous influx of foreigners and children
of foreigners, in the past thirty years,
that we easily find another great gain
from the restlessness OF our mixed pCpu-
lation. Notwithstanding the fact that
the inhabitants of some European ma
lions, have come here by hundreds of
thousands it is impossible to place the
finger on any one portion of our country
and say Here public questions are en-
tirclv settled by voters who are more for
eign than American in their ideas" Re,
garding our country as one great body,
it is safe to assert that no condition ex-
cept this one of mixing, would have en-
abled it to digest and safely dispose OF
the millions who have come to it from
every nation under Heaven. While there
is much to be desired in the direction OF
unity. nationally we have accomplished
task that might we'll have been re.
garded as impossible; the quiet, orderly
practically complete ABSORPTION of over
three times as many immigrants as there
were inhabitants at the birth of the
UnitedIStates. Each wanderer has come
promptly in touch with persons who
cherished the spirit OF freedom and ha:
become so imbued himself that we art
still one Union; inseparable forever, lei
us hope and believe.
