GLADSTONE Is DEAD.
"GRAND OLD MANI
PASSES AWAY.
His Demise Had Been Long Expected,
Owing to His Years and Suffering
Death Was Faced with Fortitude and
Welcomed as a Friend.
Nation NIourus Him.

William Ewart Gladstone, England's
greatest statesman Of this century, died
at Hawarden castle at o'clock Thurs
day morning.
1t is a simple story, this record of the
closing hours of life which, more than
any other, perhaps, has Influenced the
lives of his fellow countrymen during
two generations. The pain, which, though
intermittent, was most cruelty severe for
the last nine months, had gradually sub
sided for three Or four weeks past. This
was due, not so much to the use of NOR
phine, which was employed more or less
since January, as to the fact that the
nerves themselves had mercifully ex-
hausted their capacity for suffering.
Drugs We're used sparingly during the
last ten days, the result being that Mr..
Gladstone was conscious and clear in
mind, except for brief spells of delirium,
due chiefly to weakness.
Gladstone we'll knew on Tuesday that
his hour had come, and plainly the
thought brought him sweet content. He
was conscious most of the time, but al
most beyond the power Of speech or mo-
ton. His great mind was still active. and

THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
S from mothers ignorance; or more
4 frequently from q mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suffer"
and young women are so taught.
There is little truth and q great deal
of exaggeration in this If young
woman suffers severely she needs
) treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take their
daughters to a physician for examine
& ton; but no mother need hesitate to
write freely about her daughter or
herself to Mrs. Pinkham and secure
the most efficient advice without
4 charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address is
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
Thomson, Centralia, Pa, shows what
neglect will do, and tells how Mrs.
FHkham helped her:
My health became SO poor that I
had to leave school. was tired all the
time, and had dreadful pains in my
Sds and back, was also troubled
with irregularity OF nenses. 1 was
sery weak, and lost so much flesh that
ny friends became alarmed. My
bother, who is firm believer in your
emedies from experience, thought per-
laps they might benefit me, and wrote
5 gou for advice. / followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia E Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills as
you directed, and am now as well as I
eTer was. have gained flesh and have
ssgood color. I am completely cured OF
q gularity."

DEATH IN A STORM.
Life and Property Lost by Tornado in
Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin,.


Storms Of wind, hail and rain ravaged
widespread sections of the Northwest. In
Eastern Iowa cyclones brought death and
disaster to scattered communities, and in
Illinois, Wisconsin and in Southern Kan
sas cyclones and high winds leyeled frame
buildings, killed some stock and damaged
crops. In all the afflicted sections wires
were blown down and early details of the
disaster were meager. Almost all the vast
territory mentioned was rain soaked and
wind blown The cyclones moved the
usual narrow paths of from eighty rods
to eighty feet in width, and swept for a
distance of twenty miles or less.
The cyclone passed north Of Clinton,
Iowa, between the towns of Charlotte
and Riggs, at 4 o'clock in the afternoon,
doing an immense amount Of damage and
killing ten people, as far as reported. The
storm, after leaving Upton, passed be-
tween Clarence and Stanwood, swept
south through Lost Nation and Elwood,
running north near Delmar, touched the
lower end of Jackson County, and, cross
ing the Mississippi at South Sabula, Iowa,
struck Illinois between Savanna and
Thompson. Trees were uprooted and
buildings wiped out. The storm passed
two miles southeast Of Riggs, on the Mil
waukee Railway, and ruined everything
in it's path from southwest to northeast.
In the vicinity of Cedar Rapids the cy-
clone first appeared one mile south OF
Stanwood at 1920 o'clock in the afternoon.
Great damage was done to property in
the vicinity of Upton, Charlotte, Quig-
ley, Clarence, Elk River, north Of Wheat
land, and near Maquoketa. 1t is esti-
mated that not less than twenty-five peo-
pie have been killed, while the number of
injured will not be less than fifty. Many
saved their lives by fleeing to cellars.
The cyclone which struck Preston,
Iowa, destroyed most of the buildings in
the town and killed Charles Floy, his
wife and three children. The bodies Of
two Of the children have not been found.
In Ringgold County, southwest Of Des
Moines, the buildings Of j. A. Miller, east
of Blockton, were swept away, and Miller
and his daughter were injured. The lat
ter had both legs broken. At Maloy the
schoolhouse and Chicago Great Western
depot were wrecked.
Two cyclones from southwest struck
the village of Stilman Valley, ILL.,, the
larger going north, doing but little dam
age. The smaller one struck the south
west side, passing across the town, level
ing ten houses, one church and several
barns and damaging dozen houses, one
church, creamery and the Great West
ern depot. NJ. Nelson, his wife and two
children, and one johnson are reported
killed, and about twenty persons are
more or less injured, nome fatally.
In Joliet the wind and rain storm
! swept through the city and blew down
the big tabernacle where Evangelist Will
Jams has been holding revival meetings.
A cyclone passed seven miles north Of

ural sleep. During Wednesday there was
a slow Pickering of vital flame, and there
were only occasional intervals Of semi
consciousness until the end came, at :
o'clock Thursday morning.
The Retrospect.
James Madison was President Of the
United States, Sir John Moore had fallen
at Coruna, Napoleon Bonnparte had
reached the summit of his glory in his
triumphant assault upon Vienna, and the
beginning of his tragic decline in the di-
yorce of Josephine; Wellington, with
Waterloo reckoning him on, had crossed
the Duoro, the Pope of Rome was pris-
oner, the battle of Wagram had been
fought and won, and all Europe, from the
Spanish peninsula to the Netherlands and
from the borders of Siberia to the Irish
sea, was under sword in 1909, the year
that gave William Ewart Gladstone to
England and humanity.
OF a lineage remarkable only for its
rugged honesty and unquestloning de-
yotion to the sovereign power, the son OF
successful East IndiS merchant who
had earned baronetcy by his achieve
ments in commerce, he seemed predestin-
ed upon his entrance into public life to
become the representative statesman OF
the middle classes. That he had come to
them with hands full Of promise was evil
dent from the beginning of his career.
Double honors from Oxford at the age OF
%. q member of Parliament at the age
of %. Lord of the Treasury and Under
Secretary of State in the Peel govern
ment at the age of %.
Gladstone's commercial treaty with the
French, which gave new life to BRITISH
trade, his wonderful ability as budget
maker, his direction upon business princi-
pies of the vast machinery of the empire,
something never known before, won to
him the hearts of the mercantile classes,
home and colonial. For over sixty years
Gladstone has been in public life. For the
greater part of sixty years he has Ia
bored to turn England from her medieval
folhes, superstitions and bigotries.
For the better part of sixty years
this figure has stood amid the wa;'e1fng
and cowardly policies of Europe, stead
fast supporter Of truth and justice, sub
lime example of the power of courage and
the nobility of man.
Gladstone's battles were not alone for
British trade and British prosperity, but
for British manhood and British prdnci-
pies. Their influence has been felt to the
renotest corners of the globe. He gave
to modern political thought width and
depth of iiberality and a humane coIorang
that will i,lumine the hearts and die
minds Of his felloMmen.

Useful Things to Know by Those Who

A good complexion depends largely
on the proper circulation Of good blood
throughout the body. Good blood de-
ponds upon the assimilation of digested
food of the right quality.
Anything which interferes with the
proper circulation of the blood tends
to make the complexion poor; for exam
pie, tight lacing, tight shoes, tight neck.
bands and tight Wristbands. Many
cases Of red nose are due to some form
of pressure.
Red hands, too are often due to some
blood; for example, tight gloves often
produce redness and coarseness of the
hands. In early youth redness of the
hands is as often as not due to impeded
circulation and to their exposure to
cold winds after they have been
washed.
When redness of the hands proceeds
from chapped skin-a very frequent
source of trouble-the remedy is to dry
the hands very thoroughly and to
strengthen and soften the cuticle by
means Of glycerine rubbed on While the
hands are moist, and also of putting on
and wearing loose kid gloves at night.
Glycerine is a safer application than
yaseline, because vaseline increases the
growth of hair on the face and hands.
A simple but effective remedy to re
move the swelling and inflammation of

sists in three drops of turpentine and
the yolk of an egg, beaten together very
thoroughly. Rub the sprained part ev-
cry morning and night with this.

A SCHOOL GIRLS BATTLE.
From The Mail, Milford, Ind.

Miss Emma Rybolt, a prepossessing
school GIRL of Milford, Ind, is of more
than usual intelligence. and is ambitious
to rise in the literary world.
in the fall of 1885, said Mrs. Rybolt,
emma was taken i'll. She was close
student and her work began to tell on her.
She grew weak, pale and nervous, and
complained of pains in her back, chest
and limbs. The doctor said she was a
victim of nervous prostra ton, and should
hare been taken from school weeks ear
lier. She grew worse her nerves were so
tense that the least noise irritated her
and she had a fever and a continual
twitching in her muscles. The symptoms
were much like St. Nitus dance.

TRENTON. JAM. u, 1S9S.-The coming
designation of Governor Griggs to become
Attorney General of the United States has
given Secretary of State Wrurts some con-
Germ. as there is no precedent for such an
act under the existing constitution, and
,Mr. Wurts had to decide how to designate
the Acting Governor in the commissions
that will be issued.
The constitution provides that the Presi-
dent of the Senate shall succeed to the
executive office on the death, resignation,
removal from office, absence or inabllty
to discharge the duties of his office on
the part of the Governor, but in referring
to such an event speaks of the Acting
Governor as the person administering

Grey has been called upon for an opinion,
and nnder his advice Secretary Wnrts has

Of the Senate and Acting Governor
In the text of the commission the
wording will be something like thfs:-1,
Forter NJ. Voorhees,, President of the Sen
ate and administering the government OF
the State of New Jersey, by reason of the
resignation of John w. Griggs, the Gov
ernor," etc. 1t is possible, however, that
the Legislature may at once pass a Dill
defining the exact title to be used by act
ing Governors. This the Legislature is
competent to do, and it would probably
select a briefer designation than the one
above noted, which, in the sense of
law on the subject, quotes the language
of the constitution, with, perhaps, need
