How Weyler's Wife Proved Herself Like
Other Women.
All doubt regarding the ability of
America to successfully invade Spain
after the conquest of Cuba, the Canaries
and the Philippines had been set at rest,
A terrific bombardment of the coast
paved the way for a land force. Before
the naughty hidalgoes could realize
their peril a victorious army was storm
ing at the gates of Madrid. The Span
iards made a last desperate stand. For
days the conflict ragged without ceasing,
and the fortune Of battle hung in the
balance. In her palace sat Mrs. Weyler,
sadly sewing and shuddering at the
hoarse booming Of the guns that tore
the town to pieces.
"Valerianor' she murmured. "My
husband, Val'-
Crash! The door flew open with q
bang, and in rushed General Weyler,
bloody and disheveled, followed by his
staff.
"Pasquita," be harshly ordered,
something to eat at nee for myself
and men! Quick"
Bursting into tears, she fed from the
room. With angry stride the general
few after her.
"Wha means this foolery?" he cried.

A certain novelist, not unknown to
fame, received from a lady an unstamp-

the plea that she could net obtain it at
the booksellers in her town. His reply
was worded as follows:

A Great ENGLISH s~tateyman's Secret.

The'secret of a celebrated English
statesman's long life was his systematic
way of eating. Every bite of food was
chewed thirty times before swallowing.
The result was he naturally enjoyed
good health. Most men and women
bolt their food, and eat things which
were never intended to be eaten. They
become costive, have a bad complexion,
lose flesh, are irritable and nervous,
and the first thing they know they are
''played out 1t is gratifying to know
that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters cures
stomach troubles. 1t is a purely
vegetable medicine that has stood the
test of many years 1t cures cases
which seem to be hopeless. Sufferer,

A LIGHT WOMAN.

She had as many loves as she had follies,
And all her light loves sang her praises,
But now beneath a tangle of sea hollies
And pale sea daisies,
Here at the limit Of the hollow shore,
Folly and praise are covered meetly DER.
We will not tell her beads of beauty over.
All that we say and all we leave unsaid
Be buried with her now, since there's no lover
But scHtters on her bed
Pansies for thoughts and woodruff white as she
And, for remembrance, quiet rosemary.
Here is the end of laughter, and here witller
Sorrow and mirth, here dancing feet fall still,
Here where the sea pinks flower and fade to-
gether,
Even ut the wind'awild will.
All, lull her softly in her quiet homel
She was your sister, sea, and light as foam.

A CRITICAL Time
During the Battle Of
Santiago.
SICK OR WE'LL, A RUSH
NIGHT AND DAY.
The Packers AT the Battle of San
tiagO dc Cuba were all Heroes.
Their Heroic Efforts In Getting
AmlnunitiOns and RatiOns to
the Front Saved the Day.

p. E. Butler, of pack-train No. 3, writ
ing from Santiago de Cuba, on July %,
says: "We all had diarrhoea in more or
less violent form, and when we landed
we had no time to see a doctor, for 1t
was a case of rush and rush night and
day to keep the troops supplied with
ammunition and r~ations, but thanks to
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Diar-
rhoea Remedy, we were able to keep at
work and keep our health; in fact, l sim
corely believe that at one critical time
this medicine was the indirect saviour of
our army, for If the packers had been
unable to work there would have been
no way of getting supplies to the front.
There were no roads that a wagon train
could use. My comrade and myself had
the good fortune to lay in a supply of
this medicine for our pack-train before
we left Tampa, and | know in four cases
it absolutely saved life"

We have received broadside containing
a speech made by the Hon. j. W. Breid-
enthal, State Bank Commissioner of
Kansas. before the Board of Agriculture
of that state. The subject of the address
is "The Farmer and the Banker, :" and
in the course of it Mr.. Breidenthal uses
this strange language for Populist:
Many farmers look upon the banker as
their natural enemy. This is probably
due to the misdeeds of many bankers in
the past, the disregard of the trust and
confidence reposeG in them by the public,
and to various other causes. I have
known bankers who frequently INDUCED
in ridiculing the farmer; ridiculing his
views with reference to banking systems
and ridiculing the idea Of farmer legis-
lating on the question of banking. This,
perhaps, creates the feeling of resentment
on the part Of the farmer. Farmers have,
from discussing banking system, finally
got around to point where they discuss
the banker. Discussing, did l say? Per-
haps cussing would be the better term.
There are many farmers, and others, who
have views with reference to O proper
banking system. 1t is perfectly legitimate
for them to discuss these views; but that
there ever existed any excuse for the gen i.
eral personal abuse that has been heaped
upon bankers, l doubt very much. Ad-
uniting, as l do, that there have been in :
diyidual cases where the cussing was JUS
titled, do not believe that as class the
banking fraternity is entitled to all the
abuse that has been heapsd upon them.
Think of a Populist confessing that 1t
is possible to paint banker in colors too
black, to ''cuss' him too much. Such a
sentiment uttered by Populist official
a year ago would have provoked shout
of disapproval from the Kansas Populistic
threat which could have been heard on
the Atlantic seaboard. Yet it is not re-
lated that the Kansas Board of Agricul-
ture even Missed Mr.. Breidenthal. Some
thing evidently has happened that has
softened the Kansas heart and Modified
the Kansas disposition. Perhaps the clue
as to what it is is to be found in an ad-
dress delivered before the same Board of
Agriculture by the land commissioner of
the Atkinson, Topeka and Santa Fe
Railroad. II appears from that address
that Kansas agriculture has been exceed
ingly prosperous the past year and that
the outlook for the future is most promis-
ing. Kansas is feeling better in conse-
quence, feeling SO we'll that 1t can even
smile upon the banker.

1t is most difficult thing for the ordi-
nary man to maintain what would be
called q rational equilibrium. The ten
dency to extremes is so strong. in the
average character that often insensib bly,

liefs and ideas, and is either unable or
unwilling to allow that others manners
