Rev. T. Dewitt Talmage, undoubtedly
the greatest living divine, occupies in the
hearts and minds of the people position
of pre-eminent esteem and regard. No
other preacher is so widely known, no
other clergyman is SO distinguished
throughout the world. A great orator and
writer, his sermons have the widest dis
semination, until there is scarcely family
where his name and works are not known.
When such man, a recognized leader
and teacher of the people, testifies by his
written testimonial that DR.. Greene's Ner
vura blood and nerve remedy has helped
him and that he recommends its use fol
invigoration after over-work, to restore
the strength, energy, nerve force anC
vitality of the system, when for am
reason they are lost, weakened or i'm
paired, those who are sick and suffering
who are weak, nervous, without strength
energy and ambition, who are discouraged
and disheartened by repeated failures to be
cured, in fact all who have need of {
strengthening and health restoring med.
icine, can take renewed hope from the
words of this great preacher, that Dr.
Greene's Nervura is the one remedy
among all others to give them back the
health and strength they have lost.
Rev. DIR. Talmage says:

SALARY SNllIIR
Legislature Convinced the Fee
System is a Failure.
MANY BILLS CROWDED INTO ONE
A Measure That Makes Salaries Uniform
According to the Population Of the
County for which II is Intended
Has Many Supporters.

All matters touching on official salaries
are of interest, since the introduction of
Senator Williams bill. The present
Legislature believes that public officials
draw altogether too much money for
their services. That fact is proven by the
large number of bills already introduced
cutting off the fees of county officials and
placing them on straight salary basis.
Not only have there been large num-
Der of bills for separate counties, but
there are large number Of blanket mea
sures pending, all of which look to the
reduction Of salaries of county officials.
Perhaps the most comprehensive bill
of this nature which has yet been drafted
Is the one which is now in the course of
preparation and which will be introduced
some time next week. The bill Is the
work of the farmer members of the house,
who have formed sort of close corpora
tion and have been holding meetings
weekly in the Office of the state board of
agriculture The bill is q blanket meas
ure and fixes the salary of each official in
each county of the state. These salaries
are based upon the population and wealth
of the counties, and before finally decided
upon will be submitted to the delegation
from each county for their approval All
fees are abolished and the officials are
placed on fiat salary.
The salaries provided for Hamilton and
Cuyahoga counties are the hi chest. They
are; Probate judge, auditor and treasurer,
~, 600; clerk and sheriff, $4,000: prose-
cutor and recorder, SO, 400; commission
ers. $4,000; inflrmarry directors, $1,000
In other counties the salaries will range
downward from this maximum figure
In some of the smaller counties, little
over 81 900. The men who are drawing
the bill have gone at 1t systematically,
and in many cases the salaries are in odd
numbers, such as S1,73o, etc. They are
going through the list of counties alpha
betically, and the salaries for Stark
county have not yet been determined.
The bill is to be most thorough, cover
ing every conceivable phase Of the situa
ton, from the fixing of the number Of
employees in each Office, which is placed
in the hands of the court of common
pleas, to the fixing of their remunera-
tion, which is left to the county COM
missioners. All fees collected are to be
turned into the county treasury.

1t is curious to note that the members
of congress who declaim most loudly
that prosperity il here were the ones
most urgent for the general bankrupt
law.
A Republican member during the de-
bate said:
sin my judgment this congress can do
greater good and confer benefits upon
larger number of worthy, honest and en-
ergetic people, and do more good for
the whole country by the passage of
just and fair bankruptcy law than by
the enactment of any other legislation.
During the last 10 years failures aggre-
eating nearly three thousand million
dollars have occurred. Portions of this
vast Indebtedness are found in every
community in the land.
"In this great aggregate of failures
may be found thousands in every great
commercial state of the union whose
very means of making livelihood has
been destroyed, whose hopes have been
blasted, whose honors have been impov-
erished and whose hearts are broken"
1t is doubtful if the house bill is that
sort of just measure, and 1T is not
thought the senate will agree to it.
Debts are paid by the sale of products
and services. 1t is just as proper to say
a dollar was bought by the bushel
wheat as to say the wheat was bought
by the dollar. The law Of supply and
demand obtains with money as with
anything else,
What a world of experiment and
utilities this is! Even the human body
does not escape, and the poor deluded
victims is induced to swallow compounds
and concoctions of more or less deadly
poisons, imagining them to be remedies.
So it is in our politics Some Joab ap.
proaches his fellows with the query,
"Art thou in health, my brother" that
they may smite them under the fifth rib.
These are not the fellows who, like
Judas, go out and hang themselves.
These Joabs find excuses. Protective
tariffs are to benefit wage earners, gold
standard is required by national honor;
and the disastrous panic that followed
the repeal of the Sherman silver pur-
chaGing law was to "restore confidence"
and bring prosperity at once.

SKILLFUL SURGEON
Performs Another Operation That is
Conceded to Be an Advance Step
in Surgical Science.

DR.. John. S. Pyle performed one of his
original and most masterful surgical
operations last Wednesday at the Ault-
man hospital The subject was Mr..
George Guinther, Of Kent who for the
past several years has been suffering from
an enlarged and diseased prostrate gland,
which has threatened his life and made
1t absolutely necessary for him to under
go surgical operation for its entire re-
moval. In this particular field DR.. Pyle
has been pioneer and was the first sur
geon to simplify and make public an
operation whereby the lives of a large
class of unfortunates could be saved. The
New York Medical Record, of August @,
1899, publishes his first case under the
caption of "a New Method of Removing
the Prostrase Gland" No sooner was
the report set in type until the details of
the operation were cablsd throughout
Europe and almost simultaneously the
medical journals Of both America and
Europe were commenting upon the
operation as the one destined to take pre-
cedence over all Others and to live in his
tory.
Mr.. Guinther, at the time of entering
the hospital was in an almost helpless
condition, and IL was thought he might
die before anything could be done. He
SO far improved by preliminary treat
ment that he was able to undergo the
operation and recover from the anesthesia
without the slightest bad effects. Drs
Kelly, Harmount and Sohilling rendered
able assistance.

Above all do not be persuaded to accept
some substitute which the dealer claims is
"just as good" on which he makes little
more profit. There is no other remedy in
the world of anything like the value,
power and efficacy of DR.. Greene's Ner-
vura in restoring health and strength.
Insist on having DIR. Greene's Nervura

WATERING TROUGHS.
COMMISSIONERS WILL ASSIST
THE TOWNSHIP TRUSTEES.
Watering Places In Each Township
Matter Being Considered.

watering Places In Each Township
Matter Being Considered.
Travellers through the county have
frequently noted the absence of watering
facilities at such places where the natural
conditions would make the maintenance
of watering trough entirely. feasible and
comparatively inexpensive. The matter
has been brought to the attention of
numerous county officials and the pro-
jeot discussed. The law will not permit
the expenditure by the township trustees
of more than $50 year for watering
troughs. 1t is manifest that the purchase
of such troughs as are required in nearly
every township in the county would
more than exhaust the allowance and
leave no fund for the maintenance of the
watering places. To obviate this en-
barrassing condition, the county COM
missioners have under advisement plan
that will effect the purchase of the
troughs and leave the townships with
sufficient funds to maintain them. The
plan of the commissioners is to purchase
a sufficient number of troughs which,
with those already placed, will bring the
av erage up to at least four troughs to a
township. These troughs will be placed
at the disposal of the township authorities
who will place them to the best advan-
tage. The commissioners agree simply
to purchase the troughs and the trustees
are expected to see that they are delivered
and ppt where they will do the most
good. The kind of trough to be used will
depend somewhat on the advice received
from the trustees, who will be asked to
offer suggestions. A we'll. known Can.
ton firm manufactures steel troughs
which are said to be very desirable for
that purpose, and the stone trough, which
has stood the test of time is also con
sidered 1t is probable that definite action
