a woman to share the burden of his i'll
health. and that is what he does when he
asks her to be his wife. Ill-health in man
is almost invariably the result of disorders

a mans stomach is right and his liver
right. his blood will be pure and rich, and
his nerves strong and steady. When the
blood is pure and rich a man cannot suf-

scientific aid to the natural processes of

a man truly loved a

not marry her unless
he was absolutely
positive that he was
the very best man
in an the world that
she could marry.
According to this a
man would have to
be very conceited in
deed or remain a
bachelor.
This is going a lit

but in sober fact, no
man should marry
a woman so long as
he is the victim of
ill-health. No man
has a right to ask a

be his wife. but a

MIssoURPs GOVERNORS.
Interesting "reminiscences Of the
Rulers Of Our State Governor
Charles h. Hardin.
BY HON. B. G. BOONE.


Chas. H. Hardin, of Audrain Coun-
ty, was elected Gcgernor in 1874. His
competitors for the nomination were
Francis NJ. Cockrell and NJ. V. L. Me-
Clelland, and it is often erroneously
stated that Hardin beat Cockren
only one-sixth of a vote. This is,
however, an error, as he was nomi-
mated by one-sixth Of a vote over the
requisite majority, Col. McCleliand
receiving several votes on the last
ballot. His competitor at the election
was Major VIM. Gentry, distinguish
cd citizen and wealthy farmer of Pettis
County. Gov. Hardin was q native OF
Kentucky, a lawyer by profession,
quiet and reserved In manner, of
medium size, plain In drees, temperate
and frugal in all his habits, and 9
devout and consistent member OF the
Baptist Church. He had clear,
strong, methodical mind, and although
not an attractive speaker, he made q
strong and convincing argument. He
had served In both branches of the
State Legislature and was q clear,
el-headed, practical Law maker. He
was a member Of the State Senate In
1861, when that body passed the
Secession Ordinance, and was the only
Senator who voted against that meas
ure. The writer OF this suggested Mr..
Hardin for Governor as early as 1868
in a Communication from jefferson
City, written to the paper then pub
lished in Clinton. This was 10 years
before he was elected to that Office,
and before the writer was voter.
Mr.. Hardin made very popular Gov
ernor, and it was generally believed at
that time that he could have succeed
ed himselfif he had desired the honor.
Governor Hardin was very quiet and
reserved In demeanor, and his admin
istration Of public affairs was typical
Of the man--plain, frugal, economic,
unostentatious and practical and con-
served the public interest and resulted
to the general welfare OF the State,
He was a generous and liberal bene-
factor Of Hardin College, located ct
Mexico, Mo. He died at his home in
Mexico, Mo-, few years ago, honored
and beloved by all Of bis neighbors,
and his death was regretted by the
entire State.

Died Suddenly While Making . Speech
in the United States Supreme
Court Room.

WARRINGTON, d. o., January 49,
Augustus Hill Garland, Ex-Governor
of Arkansas, ex-senator from the
same state and Attorney General In
President Oleveland's first cabinet,
suddenly dropped dead in the United
States Supreme Court room shortly
after noon to-day.
Apoplexy, superInduced by age, was
the cause OF death.
The court had convened at noon,
when Mr.. Garland resumed q speech,
started Wednesday, In the case of
lawson vs.. Moore. He spoke calmly
and showed no strains of excitement.
He read law decision, and said:
"This, your honor, is our conten-
tion.n
AS he uttered the words he halted,
passed his hand before bis face, gasped
convulsively and fell heavily to the
floor, striking chair in his fall.
He was taken into the room of Chief
Clerk McKenney, where he died before
medical aid could reach him.
