The Best Remedy for rheumatism.

From tie FaWha0en az " Register.
Mr.. James Rowland, of this village,
states that for twenty-five years his
wife has been a sufferer from rheuma-
tism. A few nights ago she was in
such pain that she was nearly crazy.
She sent Mr.. Rowland for the doctor,
but he had read Of Chamberlains Pain
Balm and instead Of going for the ply
sician he went to the store and secured
a bottle of it. His wife did not APP
prove of Mr.. Rowland's purchase at
first, but nevertheless applied the
Balm thoroughly and in an hour 5
time was able to 90 to sleep. She
now applies it whenever she feels an
ache or pain and finds that it always
gives relief. He says that no medi-
cine which she had used ever did her
as much good. The % and so cent

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure Deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an intlamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
Stachian Tube When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing. and when it is entire
ly closed Deafness is the result, and I'M
less the inflammation can be taken out
and this tube restored toits normal con-
dition, hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by ca
tarrh. which is nothing but an inflamed
condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for
any case of Deafness Caused by catarrh)
that cannot be cured by Halls Catarrh

THE WEST VIRGINIA EDITORS.

The eighth annual session of the
West Virginia Editorial Association,
held at Weston last week, was the best
in the history of the organization.
Nearly hundred representatives Of
the newspapers, including some of the
most influential and brainy editors in
the State, were present, and able pa
pers prepared for the occasion were
read and discussed.
The hospitable city of Weston threw
wide its gates, and from the time the
editors entered as expectant visitors
until they left as charmed and obi
gated guests nothing was left undone
for their comfort and pleasure. We'd
nesday at noon the editors reached the
city, and were met at the depot by a
reception committee Of thirty-fve cit
liens and a band Of music, by whom
they were escorted to headquarters,
and thence assigned to their stopping
places. 1t was a royal reception, and
under the influence Of this warm wei
come the first impressions were most
favorable ones. The public and pri-
vate houses were gaily decorated with
flags and bunting, and the whole town
seemed TO be in holiday attire.
The first session was held Wednes-
day afternoon. President ]. Sldell
Brown, of the Kingwood Argu8, pre-
sided. Mayor Charles B. Goodwin
welcomed the editors on behalf Of the
people of Weston, and was followed by
Mr.. Robert L. Bland for the local press.
President Brown responded in good
style for the association. The balance
of the afternoon was taken up in dis
cussion of various topics and routine
business.

WEST VIRGINIA has gotten some
attention from the President the past
week. Yesterday Mr.. Charles Bur-
dette Hart, the accomplished editor
of the Wheeling htelhgencer, had his
hearts desire fulfilled when the Presi-
dent named him for minister to Colon
bia. Mr.. Hart will, we are sure, fill
the position worthily, and We extend
to him our sincere congratulations.
The President has also nominated JOS
eph H. Gaines, of Charleston, to be I.
S. district attorney for West Virginia,
and it is said that John X. Thompson
will be appointed marshal in few
days. The fight for collector Of in
ternal revenue now lies between A, B.
White and Thomas E. Davis, George
NJ. Bowers having dropped from the
race.

The new board of directors of the
hospital for the insane at Weston will
meet next Tuesday, and it is intimated
that sweeping changes will be made,
Republicans being installed in the
places now held by Democrats. We
have recently taken advantage OF an
opportunity to make careful inspec-
ton of this institution, and we think
no one could fail to be impressed with
the fact that it is under the most ex-
cellent management. This asylum is
a monument to the progress Of Chris
tan civilization. To make it the foot
ball of politics is nothing less than a
crime. We do not mean to say that
it cannot be conducted as capably by
Republicans as by Democrats, for of
course it can be. But we protest
against making a change simply for
partisan reasons. So far as we have
learned, no charges have been made
concerning the efficiency of DIR. Crum-
hacker, the present superintendent,
and if he is deposed it will simply be
to give a Republican his place. I'm
less the board has a more efficient man
for the place they cannot be justified
in making a change, and if they make
dangerous political experiments with
this asylum in which the people are
so deeply interested they will be held
to strict accountability. We know DR..
Crumbacker to be an honorable gen.
tlemar a physician in the front rank
of his profession, and an executive Of
fcer whose record speaks for itself dur
ing the time he has been in his present
position. He has under him an eff
cient and trustworthy corps Of assist
ants, to which fact the poor unfortu-
mates to whom they minister bear liv-
ing testimony.
We are sure we voice the desire Of
the thinking people of the State when
we deplore partisan influence in the
consideration of this the greatest char
ity in West Virginia.

Hires Rootbeer Cannot be Initiated.

1t is doubtful if any modern commodi-
ty. except money, has been counterfeit
ed more than Hires Rootbeer. BY pro-
grcssive and costly advertising this arti-
Gle has attained a trademark peculiar
to itself, and its wide popularity and i'm
mense sale is an irresistible attraction
for the unscrupulous imitator. Justice
however, is beginning to realize that the
public must be protected from such
practices as is evinced by the decision
Just rendered by Judges Finletter and
Gordon in Philadelphia, Court Of Com
mon Pleas No. 3. restraining George y.
Hires. a namesake of Mr.. Charles (.

Smiles Irradiate the Countenance

When those atrocious bodily troubles, chills
and fever, dyspepsia, kidney or rheumatic
disorders, yield, as they invariably do, to tn e
benign action of Hostetter's stomach Bitters,
a remedy of mprehensive use, pure in com
position, unobjectiOnable to a delicate palate,
and thorough in effects. Sick headache, loss
of appetite, flesh and sleep, ma Isea heart
burn, are among the physical annoyances
obvated by the Btters. They are in the
nature of signals OF distress displayed by a
disordered stomach liver and bowels, and
disappear with the cause that produced them.
But these signals should be needed AT once.
Then the woe beg)n look ofchronic I'll health
will speedily disappear, and vigor and COM
fort restore a ch eerful aspect TO the face. That

Indigestion is often taken for consump-
ton. The word consumption means
wasting away, and dyspeptics often
waste away as badly as consumptives.
The reason people waste away is be-
cause they don't get enough to eat, or
they don't digest what they do eat.
If the latter is your trouble, take Sha-
ker Digestive Cordial. This will help
you to digest your food and stop your
loss Of flesh.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made from
herbs, banks and the juices of fruit, by
the well-known Shakers at Mount Leban:
on. 1t possesses great tonic and diges
tive powers.
Shaker Digestive Cordial has cured
many supposed consumptiyes who were
really dyspepticsD. by simply helping
their stomachs to digest their food, thus
giving them nouriShment and new
strength.

Friday night public meeting was
held in the opera house, when num-
Der of papers on pertinent subjects
were read by members of the associa-
ton and invited guests. Later an
elaborate banquet was given at the
Camden Hotel, where were gathered
the editors and their friends and most
of the prominent people of Clarksburg.
The menu was frst-class one, elegant
ly served. The toasts were numerous,
wit and eloquence were at high-water
mark, and altogether it was most
delightful affair. 1t was 2 o'clock
when the festivities ended and the
meeting finally Adjourned, after pass
ing resolutions expressing the appreci-
alton of the members for the unmeas-
ured inequalities Of the people of Wes-
ton in general and of the individuals
in particular who had made the en-
tire meeting such an unbounded sue

Friday was devoted to an excursion
to Camden-on-Gauley, the terminus Of
the West Virginia and Pittsburg Rail
road, eighty miles from Weston, where
basket picnic was held. General
Manager Kunst, who was indefatiga-
bic in his efforts to entertain the edi-
tors, had provided a special train for
this delightful trip, and fully two hun
bred persons availed themselves Of his
kindness. The road runs right into
the heart Of West Virginia, through
the forest primeval, and following, as
it does, the Elk and Gauley rivers for
a part Of its route, passes through sin
gularly picturesque and beautiful seen
cry, a splendid hotel, which is be-
coming more and more popular as a
summer resort, is located in a most de-
ightful spot overlooking the Gauley,
"far from the madding crowd" Lunch
was served on the spacious porches of
the hotel, the famous salt sulphur wa
ter beng used as the digester. In the
afternoon the party visited the i'm
mense saw mill near by, where thor.
oughly modern and up-tO-date plant
picked logs from the river and con-
verted them into marketable lumber
at tie rate of 10000 feet day. Two
great band-saws ate their way through
these enormous logs at a rate that
would make an old-time saw-mill man S
head swim, and machinery carried the
boards and slabs right where they
were wanted, and manipulated them
so as to utilize every part in the most
advantageous manner 1t was a Won
derful sight. In the boom adjoining
the mill were twenty million feet of
logs waiting their turn.
