Yes, He Had the Cheek!
EDITORS REPUBLICAN

EDITORS NEPUBL ICAN:
Is it true that, after getting $1,000 of
old lady Daubney's money, DR.. d.
had the cheek to charge a DOCTORS
bill of $1U0 and take that from the
old lady too? A public answer will
oblige. MANY REPS.
Yes, it is all true, except that $40 Of
the 500 was paid by George Daubney
before he died; and the rest ($sO was
paid by Mrs. Daubney, and she holds
a receipt for the same. So persons
who have seen the receipt tell US.
BY the way
Ii Geo. Daubney had in fact and
beyond dispute, made to DIR. Daub-
ney an actual, outright gift of $1,000,
in three successive parcels of gilt
edged securities-the very cream of
OF the whole estate-and it was all
known and understood by Mrs. Daub-
ney-would there have been a
thought in the minds of either Mr.. or
Mrs. Daubney of PAYING a paltry
medical bill of $500 to one who had
already received seventy times 800?
Would any man with an ordinary
sense of decency or propriety have
even thought of receiving more pay
from such wonderfully liberal rela.
tive?
Doesn't the unnaturalness OF
making such bill, and receiving
such pay, seem to absolutely contra
dict the story of those remarkable
gifts?
On second thought this isn't case

Catarrh and Malaria.

People who are or have been affect
ed by catarrh are most subject to
chronic malaria. The explanation is
this: Malaria is germ disease. Germs
find their way into the blood through
the mucous membranes. If the
mucous membranes are healthy the
germs can not enter the blood.
This is why some people
do not get malaria. But
if the membranes are affected by
catarrh, even slightly, the malaria
germs find easy access into the blood.
Pe-ru-na is the remedy. 1t not only
destroys malaria germs, but so re-
stores the mucous membranes to
health, that no more germs can find
entrance. Pe-ru-na is the most reli-
able remedy for chronic malaria. 1t
cures by graduating the germs from
the system.

Mustnpha Bey Goes Home.

Washington, Sept. a9.-The state au-
thorities are somewhat surprised at the
abruptness in which Mustapha Bey, the
recently recalled Turkish minister, took
his departure. His last visit to the state
department was in the latter part Of
June, when he babe a formal adieu. II
is said that the minister's inability to
stem public opinion regarding the Ar
menians, also failure to carry out the
sultan's mandate concerning claims
against Americans in the orient, had
much to do with this unseemlv haste.

For Senator 42nd Senatorial District,
d. A. LYONS.
A Supervisor for Elma.

The democratic county convention
did at least one sensible act at Cresco
last Saturday, when it nominated
Steve Riley for member of the Board
of Supervisors. Mr.. Riley has grown
up from boyhood here in Howard
county and is familiar to nearly
everybody in this vicinity as sturdy,
Industrious and honest farmer, with
good business sagacity and fair edu-
cstion. He is just the kind of man
whom the people in this part of the
county want to look after their inter-
ests. His character is above reproach
and if elected, he will keep watch
full eye on the interests of Howard
county and see to it that our finances
are economically and honestly admin
istered, to the end that the burdens of
the taxpayers shall be lightened to
the greatest degree consistent with
good management;
Aside from Mr.. Riley's personal
fitness, it is conceded by all that the
southwestern part of the county is
justly entitled to member on the
Board of Supervisor. We hope Mr..
Riley will receive the support of the
voters of Elma, regardless of party
Elma News-Register.
The PLAIN DEALER joins in the
hope expressed in regard to the
support of the Elma voters. We also
hope to see democrats and republi-
cans who hope, at some time to see
Cresco have a representative on the
board giving Mr.. Riley a hearty
support. Cresco casts fully one fourth
Of the vote of the county, and pays
fully one fourth of the taxes and is
always without representative on
the board. The PLAIN DEALER is
willing to give its support to any
good business man of Cresco, republic
can or democrat, at the election next
year, solely on the ground that the
principal villages are entitled to rep
resentation. With view to this enc
we hope to see Mr.. Riley elected
And when Cresco has a candidate
we ask Elma to remember and recip
rocate, what Cresco may do.

Public Opinion accuses the DEBORAH
Republican of furnishing supplements
pertaining to the case of Daubney VS..
Daubney for the use of newspapers,
and DIR. Daubney before the republi-
can convention at Cresco made the
same accusation. As this is the only
paper in the district that has used
supplements of that matter, we can
give that story its quietus as most en-
phatically false. When the article
appeared in the Republican we tele-
phoned to Mr.. Bailey and asked
him to furnish us 5000 copies of that
matter with the reply of Judge Will
lett to Public Opinions article. Mr..
Bailey positively declined to supply
us with the supplements, or to sell
500 copies of the DEBORAH Republican
containing those articles. We then

before Judge Fellows wherein DIR.
Daubney declares himself to have
been the owner in his own right of
$1,000 of personal property that was
taxable, when he gave in his assess
ment, and his oath before the assessor
after having given in but $94, is of
the utmost Importance to DR.. Daub-
ney, and he and his cappers better de-
vote attention to that. The vital
question as to those two oaths is which
is false; both can't be true, and from
DR.. Daubney's general intelligence it
appears to have been a care Of wilful
perjury.

The strength which comes to us
from eating nourishing food is better
than stimulation, because it is new
strength.
The health which belongs to a
strong body, we'll nourished by
proper food (properly digested), is the
only health that is lasting.
The difference between Shaker
Digestive Cordial and other medi-
cines is simply that it helps nature to
make strength. 1t does not profess
to cure sickness, except as that sick
ness is a result of weakness caused
by food not properly digested.

the last word. 81 fear Herbert is sad
tlirt. He is taken with every pretty
face. But of course he will never
marry a woman who hasn't money.
He is quite rich, you know-my elder
brothers heir. Herbert took the
name with the property, and dropped
his fathers. Altogether it is quite q
story. 1t is the wish of his family
that he should marry Miss Fortesque,
a charming girl, wealthy and accom-
plished. They have been quite fond of
each other from childhood. OF course
he has told you all about her?'
"No."
Naughty boy! However, you nat
urally did not think a man of the
world meant anything. serious by at
tentions which he could not very we'll
avoid under the circumstances"
Dora felt the sting conveyed by the
words, and it reused her pride.
ooh, certainly not! We were only
friends for the time, as you imply. Is
he engaged to this lady?"
81 really do not know. Herbert is
not communicative; but 1 presume
there is some understanding between
them"
And in Dora's ears sounded, like a
far off echo, his words of the morn
ing. No doubt he had meant to tell
her of his engagement to another wo-
man.
There was not much sleep for the
girl that night; but when morning
came she resolved that no one should
guess her secret, so with perhaps
rather louder laughter than usual she
ate her breakfast, and talked so gayly
that she hoped no one suspected her
misery.
Oh, to be at home! But not for
worlds would she have proposed go
ing that day, nor for several days af-
ter. Then, at last, she did go.
She babe Mrs. Downing a gay fare
well, thanking her in rather extrava-
CANT terms for delightful visit. But
all this forced gayety did not deceive
the woman of the world, and when
Dora was gone, her conscience
pricked her little.
''Yet what could do?" she thought.
'To be sure Dora is pretty; but Her
bert would be throwing himself away
if he married poor country girl.
They will soon forget each other@ 1
shall invite Herbert and Miss For
tesque together by-and-by. Dora is
young-she'n get over it."
Her letters to the girl were few and
short: only once she mentioned her
neDhew.
"Dear Herbert has gone to Europe
again with his friends" she wrote,
and Dora felt that he could not have
lover her. She never dreamed that
Herbert had written to her twice, and
The Florida agriculturist. [volume] (DeLand, Fla.) 1878-1911, 1897-04-07

Mrs. Downing had kept back the let
tiers.
That winter, while a guest at q
house party, Dora met Col. Seabury,
handsome though elderly man. 1t was
not long before he was attracted by
Dora's pretty face and quick wit. He
singled her out for his companion in
te moonlit sleigh drives or skating
excursions. She was his most frequent
partner in the dance, and it soon be-
came evident that he was in love with
her, and that she encouraged his at
tentions.
1t was no surprise to any one, there
fore, when Dora announced her en-
gagement, so coolly and quietly that
Mrs. Allison, her friend and hostess,
exclaimed, "Why, Dora, don't you love
him." and then became frightened
when she saw how pale and wretched
the girl became.
But after the first spasm of miser-
able recollection, Dora bravely deter
mined to forget. Her betrothed and
her friend both urged an immediate
marriage, and as there was nothing
to wait for she consented, and was
soon in whirl of preparation. -
Mrs. Allison insisted that the we'd
ding take place at her house, and
Dora could not but feel glad of it.
She stipulated that Martha should
come to the marriage, for she knew it
would break her faithful heart if she
were not present. She also arranged
that the old woman should continue
to live in the cottage which had so
long been her home.
Mrs. Downing had gone to Italy for
her health, and it was with feeling
of relief that Dora realized she could
not be present at the wedding. To
Colonel Seabury she never spoke of
her mothers friend, and to no one
did she breathe the name of Herbert.
They were married, and her almost
doting husband carried her off to Cal
ifornia and the Southern States for
their wedding tour. His unvarying
kindness and patience with her many
vagaries touched all that was best in
Dora's nature, and though she could
not give him wifely love she did feel
for him grateful affection.
At last the northern spring opened.
Colonel Seabury was anxious to be in
his own house again and introduce
his young wife to his friends. Dora
found her new home spacious and
beautiful; her husbands money was
spent freely on any alterations she
suggested, and she told herself that
she ought to be very happy.
But she could not forget. Some
times, as the summer days came. the
remembrance of the last year filed
her with heart-sickness which terri
fled her.
