AN INDIAN CRADLE SONG.

Swing thee low in thy cradle soft,
Deep In the dusky wood
Swing thee low and swing aloft--
Sleep as a papoose should,
For safe in your little birchcn nest
Quiet will come md peace and rest.
II the little papoose is good.
The coyote bowls On the prairie cold,
And the owIet boots in the tree,
And the big moon shines on the little child
As it slumbers peacefully.
So swing thee high in thy little nest
And swing thee low and take the rest
That the night wind brings to theel
Father lies on the fragrant ground,
Dreaming Of hunt and fight,
And the pine leaves rustic with mournful
sound
All through the solemn night;
But the little papoose in his birchen neat
L swinging low as he takes his rest.
Till the sun brings the morning light.

ralgia. sleeplessness, pain or dull ache in
the back, "a desire to urinate often day

Uric acid. or brick-dust deposit in
urine are signs of clogged kidneys, caus-
ing poisoned and germ-filled blood.
Sometimes the heart acts badly, and

dangerous form of kidney trouble.

world wide reputation for its wonderful
cures of the most distressing cases.

Two Pointed Questions Answered.

What is the use of making better
article than your competitor if you can
not get better price for it?
Ans.-As there is no difference IN
the price the public will buy only the
better, so that while our profits may be
smaller on single sale they will be
much greater in the aggregate.
How can you get the public to know
your make is the best?
If both articles are brought prom
inently before the public both are GER
tain to be tried and the public will
very quickly pass judgment on them
and use only the better one.
This explains the large sale on Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy The people
have been using it for years and have
found that it can always be depended
upon. They may occasionally take up
with some fashionable novelty put
forth with exaggerated claims, but are
certain toreturn to the one remedy they
know to be reliable, and for coughs,
colds and Group there is nothing equal
to Chamberlain Cough Remedy. For
sale at Remnants Pharmacy.

self to be in the employ Of some we'll

states that he is employed by Phil
adelphia firm, who wanted to hire wo-
men to make artificial flowers, and
after they had learned the art would
give them steady employment at good
wages that representative OF the
firm would be around at stated periods
to gather up the results of their labors.
But it was first necessary that the sum
of $3.50 should be paid in advance in
order to cover the cost of the "moulds
and to assist in paying for the instruc-
tons that would be given by a lady
whom the firm would send on in few
days. The individual failed to appear
to arrange for the instructions, and a
large number of women have been
swindled out of the $3.50 they had
paid the fellow. Kick him out if he
calls on you. He answers to this de-
scription Age,about 80 years; height,

The message of President McKin-

HE message OF PRESIDENT Mchln-
ley was read on Monday to both
Houses of Congress. A large part of
the paper is taken up with review
of the war with Spain and the causes
leading up to the conflict. Contrary
to expectation, he made no intimatiOn
as to what the policy of our govern
ment will be in regard to our new
territorial acquisitions-no recommen-
dations whatever as to the form OF
government for the Philippines. His
views upon the financial situation are
brief and unimportant. He recon-
mends a standing army of 100000
men, and endorses Secretary Long s
plans providing for the construction
of the following warships: Three bat
tie ships of 1880 tons displacement,
to cost 100000 each three ar
mored cruisers Of 10000 tons displace-
ment, at an estimated cost Of 81 ,000,-
900 each three protected cruisers OF
5000 tons displacement, to cost
$2,15O,OO0 each, and six cruisers of
. 400 tons at a cost of Sl.l4l 800
each. These estimates do not include
the cost of armor and armament. He
favors the construction of the Mica
raguau canal, and asks Congress to
take appropriate action looking to
the control of this enterprise, He rec
ommends an appropriation of 81 ,O0O,-
900 to make an exhibit at the Paris
exposition in 1900, and favors action
by Congress looking to the celebra-
ton of the one hundredth anniversa-
ry of the founding Of the city Of Wash
ington. The Dingley tariff bill does
not seem to meet expectations, and 1t
is estimated that there will be def
cit of $ll2,OOO,Ooo at the end of the
present fiscal year. During the past
year there was paid for pensions
$l49,O82,892.
