The Power Of the Press,

"The power of the press" is a
common expression, but few really
realize its actual power. Deer
thinkers do not hesitate to assert
that half the crime of our country
may be traced to this source. But
great as is the influence of the
press, it cannot begin to equal the
power of Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters over disease. Most diseases
originate in a weak stomach, The
Bitters strengthens the stomach,
purifes the blood aud cures consti-
patton. 1t will tone up the nervous
system and stimulate inactive kid
neys, AS an appetizer it is une-
qualled. 1t cures sick people, and
an occasional dose regulates the
bowels and prevents well people
from being sick. If you want to
get well, and keep WELL use Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters.

WE CALLED THE TURN.

Some ten or dozen days ago, or
soon after the death Of General
Manager Glham, we stated that
we knew Mr. Fordyce well enough
TO know that he weuld offer Mr. j..
A. Edison the place made vacant by
the death of the manager. We had
several knowing ones in railroad
circles to doubt our position, but
we did not lose faith in the same.
even after Mr. Green was appoint
ed, for we recognized that his ap-
pointment would be short lived.
Not that Mr.. Green is not compe-
tent to ill the place, but that Mr..
Fordyce wanted his old co-workera
with him, for be understands them
and they him, and we have expect
ed the denouement daily. We re-
gard Mr.. j. A. Edison as one OF the
safest railroad managers in the
south, and if he don't take the kinks
out of the rails on the X. C, P. &
G.. road and put his trains to run
ming on time, we will be badly
fooled.
While we could have wished the
Cotton Belt to have retained him
for we have the kindliest feelings
Tor the above road, we are glaC
that the change he made does mo-
lose his identity with our city.

Summer Comfort.

There is a constant demand for
gasoline stoves, Why? Because
the new gasoline stoves work per
fectly, keep the kthen cool and
pleasant, and do away with the
bother of having wood and kindling
around, But the chief reason is
on account of the cheapness OF
gasoline, as compared with other
fuel for cooking purposes.
by actual test it has been found
that four gallons of gasoline will &C

the fines he imposed on those VIC

A Land Tide.

Recent observations with the seismo-
graphs at Mauritius have led to the sug-
gestion that not only the ocean and the
atmosphere, but even the land, may
experience the effects Of daily tide
running round and round the earth as it
revolves on its axis. But while the
tides in the air and the sea are due
more to the moon than to the sun, the
supposed "land tide" arises solely from
the suns action. Moreover, it is caused,
not by the attraction Of the sun, but
by its heat. A wave of depression is
supposed to follow the sun from east
to west, caused by the extraction Of
moisture from the soil. At Mauritius it
Is found that there is relative up
heaval Of the land to the west Of the
place of observation from morning I'M
til evening, and relative depression
on the same side, or an unheaval to the
east, during the night

Expressive Americanfsm.


when I go over to the old country
am going to get lot of clothes to
bring back with me" said Well-knoWn
Windsorite, who went abroad recently.
"Oh,. said his hearer, IF that is the
case, I have brother who is tailor
in London, and will give you letter
of introduction. and write him telling
him to use you right
In course of time the traveller stepped
into the tailor shop in London and pre-
sented his letter of introduction. He
got a warm handshake from the tailor,
who said he had received a letter from
his brother telling of the travellers ex-
pected arrival, but could not under
stand part of the letter. The letter,
when produced, read:
Dear Brother: The bearer, Mr. ---,
is from our place and wishes to get q
lot of clothes in London. He has all
sorts of money. Soak him. Yours af-
fectionately."
The part of the letter that could not
be understood was the concluding
phrase. The traveller of course under
stood the Americanism, but managed
to keep his face straight while he gave
it favorable construction. He saved
the laugh until he could have it on his
American friend.

have been run all over Seward County,
as well as into the adjoining counties
of Morton and Stevens, and across into

Sacred Fires.

The sacred fires of India have not all
been ext1nguished. The most ancient,
which still exists, was consecrated
twelve centuries ago in commemora-
ton of the voyage made by the Par
sees when they emigrated from Persia
to India. The fire Is fed five times
every twenty-four hours with sandal
wood and other fragrant materials,
combined with very dry fuel. This fire,
in the village Of Oodwada, near Bulsar,
is visited by Parsees in large numbers
during the months allotted to the pre-
siding genius of fire.
