People age quickly in this American
life. and instances of preservation OF
youthful strength axd vigor in mature
years are pointed to as remarkable. We
are educated to believe in early decay of
physical beauty and strength, especially
in our women, and permit the decline to
continue with a passing sigh. Most wo-
men have worn look in the early twen-
ties, the figure loses it's roundness, the
face the glow of youth, and from that
time on they age rapidly. All this is
wrong and unnecessary. Let everybody
to whom this word may come, men and
women alike, consult DR.. Greene, and
learn from his great experience the cause
of your trouble, and secure his Invaluable
advice. DIR. Greene, discoverer of the
famous Nervura, and many other won
derful remedies, invites consultation at
his Office, 35 West 14th ST., New York

sands of happy people testify today to

vice of this great specialist and the mar
velous curative power of his remedies.

ian is at your disposal for the asking.

A Town Where Marriages Are Scarce Hal
. Sensation.
Fort Gaines, Ca, Oct. 26.-Joseph
Culpepper, a young merchant OF this
town, is candidate for mayor on a
matrimonial platform, and is at pre-
sent the most popular man in Fort
Gaines. 1t all comes of his wisdom in
throwing off the state of single blessed
ness and in wedding Miss Pearl Brown,
thus giving Fort Gaines it's first mar
riage in seven years. This is an i'm
portant little city of $500 inhabitants,
and the absence of the marrying pro-
pensity among the young people much
concerned the wise people of the vii
lage.
Every step known was taken to
arouse the young people. The pulpit
and press emphasized the Importance
of marriage in a community, and at
last when it was whispered that Mr..
Culpepper was courting Miss Brown.
the village began to hope that it would
become infectious. The town was
hilarious at the wedding. and there
was more excitement than there has
been over the result of the last two
presidential elections. Mr.. Culpepper's
friends say they will run him on the
platform, and there is no
doubt of his success.

A Kansas Judge Coins a Word.

They were discussing various things
in the clerk of the Supreme Courts office
the other day, that is, party of judges
were. Finally the talk drifted on the sub
ject of coming words and phrases.
Mr.. Justice Allen made the remark: ''I
coined new word the other day. 1t is a
good one, think, and perfectly natural,
but have been unable to find it in any
dictionary. It is 'enforcibility.
The lawyers present studied awhile,
and finally agreed that the word would be
very useful, and fit certain cases exactly.
Chief Justice Doster delared that he
once used word that exactly described
a certain case, and it seemed to him that
it was by far the best term to apply. The
word he used was "obtention,'' meaning
the act of obtaining. Judge Doster final
ly discovered the word in rare old work
on interstate law.

The Growth Of Democracy.

1
Discussing Democracy and it's growth
in November Lippincott's, Fred. Perry
Powers truly says:
1.-THE growth of Democracy is moi
due to any prior notions OF the su
perior virtue or wisdom of the masses
of the people. but to the thoroughly
demonstrated selfishness, greed, vice,
and military ambitions of kings and
mobiles. The people have undertaken
to govern themselves because for gen.
Grafton after generation the gentlemen
misgoverned them: if they were not
sordid or selfish, they certainly made a
good thing out of it for themselves. and
the multitude bore the blows, shed the
blood, and paid the bills. till they
wearied of it. It was when the gentle
men we're in undisputed possession Of
all branches of the government that
Parliament passed stringent laws to
prevent workmen from combining to
get better wages, and repealed the
statute of apprentices, which had been
the law of England since Elizabeth,
because it obstructed the employers in
getting cheap and especially child Ia
Dor. Men were transported for seven
years for combination and left to dis
cover by accident that the government
had been compelled by an outraged
public sentiment to pardon them.
Eight years before the reform act of
1882 a Parliamentary committee report
ed that the courts had often and sew.
erely punished workmen for combin-
ing to reduce wages, raised, but had in
no case punished employers for com
bining to reduce wages.
ut is not abstract theories about the
superiority of the masses or reven about
the rights of man that have spread De-
mocracy, but the way the gentlemen
have governed.
+ u n
With this growth of Democracy there
has been remarkable increase in hui
name sentiment, and in all forms of al
truistic effort. Not till man In every
class became something of political
factor did the more fortunate members
Of society feel much interest in improv-
ing the intelligence, the morals, and
the surroundings of the less fortunate
members ofsociety. Next to the gospel,
and because it is itself inspired by the
gospel, Democracy has done more than
anything else to inculcate belief in the
brotherhood of man, to mitigrate suf-
fering, and to promote peace. Three
generations of Democracy have remov-
ed from the human race burdens that |
thirty generations of kings and mobiles
would never have lightened. 1t is in
credible that political institutions
should be degraded and undermined
by SO beneficent force, and that, in
proportion as their civilization rises,
and their social crimes are repented of,
and the ethics Of Christianity receive
a more extended application by them,
nations should approach political dis
integration and anarchy"

In some parts Of Maine the people live
to be very old. An old man of 30, living
quite distance from the nearest town,
requiring some family groceries, sent his

the son failed to show up with the pro
visions in time his grandfather, cente-

As was predicted, the Cuban question
assumes a clearer aspect with the inaug-
uration Of the new Liberal cabinet in
Spain. The report that sagasta's policy
includes amnesty for American prisoners
In Cuba as well as for Cubans who have
been condemned to imprisonment on the
Island OF Ceuta, and autonomy or home
rule for Cuba, similar to that enjoyed
by Australia or Canada, indicates that
peace may not be long delayed,
While the Cubans have all along de-
clared that they would accept nothing
short of absolute independence, 1t Is
stated that leading men among the in
surgents are willing to bring hostillties
to a close upon fair basis, which win
secure to the oppressed people of the
island liberty and their full share in the
government. In this settlement the
United States government will see that
the full measure OF justice is done,
OF course il is impossible to tell at this
time how far Spain is willing to go in this
regard until the details of the sagasta
policy are officially meAe known. Up 10
the present we have had only the state
ments of newspaper correspondents in
Madrid and Washington, They appear
to speak as from authority, however. and
Judging from all the signs a settlement
on some basis will soon be proposed by
the Spanish government. II 1t is salts
factory to the Cuban leaders the war
will end; II not, the services of the United
States win be required. In the mean
time, in whatever negotiations that take
place the interests of this country will
not be permitted to suffer.
