Every government and almost every
department has its secret codes of signs,
figures or words devised by some clever
code composer for use in the transmits.
sion Of messages Of supreme importance
and with regard TO which secrecy is Of
vital consideration. One which is SAID
to be the cleverest of all those now in
use is employed by the United States
state department. 1t is called the
''sphinx. " The "sphinx" was devised
by one Of the officials in the state de.
partlnent and isas susceptible to changes

dreds Of messages have been sent by il.
and it deties all attempts TO unravel it,

4 Case Of Heart Eail..rs,

She was much frightened but noticed
that in intervals in which her stomach
did not annoy her, her hearts action
became normal. Reasoning correctly
that her digestion was alone at fault
she procured the proper medicine TO
treat that trouble and with immediate
good results. Her appetite came back,
the choking spells became less frequent
and finally ceased. Her weight, which
had been greatly reduced, was restored,
and she now weighs more than for
years. Her blood soon became pure and
her cheeks rosy.
The case is OF general interest be-
cause the disease is very common
one. That others may know the
means of cure we give the name of the
medicine used-Dr. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People. These pills con-
tain all the elements necessary to give
new life and richness to the blood and
restore shattered nerves.

Poor digestion often causes irrenalar-
ity Of the hearts action. This irreen-
larity may Be mistaken for real, organic
heart disease. The symptom are
much the same. There Is, however.
~ast difference between the two; or
ganie heart disease is often incnrable;
apparent heart disease is curabIe If
good digestion be restored.
A case in point is quoted from the
New Era, of Greensburg, Ind. Mrs.
Ellen Colsom, Viewpoint, Ind, =
woman forty-three years old, had
suffered for four years with distressing
stomach trouble. The gases generated
by the indigestion pressed on the heart,
and caused an irregularity Of its action.
She had much pain in her stomach and
heart, and was subject to frequent and
severe choking spells, which were most
severe at night. Doctors were tried
in vain; the patient became worse,
Respondent, and feared impending
death,

change we received tickets. which only

edly the choice OF a majority here. as
between the two men.
Some prejudice exists against Mr.. Ely
son among the Populists: why IL is. l
do not understand. unless II be that he
has been al the head OF the Democratic
party in the State and they hold him re-
sponsible for all the evil deeds done by
the unprincipled ballot-box suffers
throughout the State.
Many claim that the party owes II 70
him for party services. while others think
II would be had policy TO put him up for
the reason that he cannot command the
support of the Populists. In a very heat
ed discussion on this subject a few days
since. / heard a prominent man Of that
party ask one OF Mr.. Ellyson's admirers
If he wished TO disfranchlse twelve thou
sand voters OF the State, for. said he. at
the coming election the Populists desire
TO vote with the Democrats. but, II you
nominate Ellyson we cannot do so.
Col T. F. Goode is the choice OF large
