4 Thousand Tongues

Could not express the rapture
of Annie H. Springer. of 1925
Howard street, Philadelphia,
Pa, when she found that DR..
Kings New Discovery for Con.
sumption had completely cured
her of a hacking cough that for
many years had made life bur-
den. All other remedies and doc.
tors could give her no help, but
she says of this Royal Cure-''it
soon reno ved the pain in my
chest and | can now sleep, sound
ly, something l can scarcely re-
member doing before. I feel like
sounding its praises throughout
the Universe" So will everyone

b1t1on, or money, or pride.
But men are slow to believe that over
work sometimes kills; a man hates to ad-
nit that his health ever needs any particu-
lar care. He feels miserable and " out of
sorts - but tries to bluff it off" until he
gets fat on his back, unable to do stroke
of work. He becomes obliged to spend no
end of money for doctors and even at that
can hardly save his life.
How much more sensible, and in the end
how much cheaper at the first signs of ply
sical weakness to write to DR.. R. " Pierce,
chief consulting physician of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo,
N. Y, and obtain, free of charge, the ad-
vice of a skilled and educated physician
who has a wider reputation for the success
full treatment of chronic diseases than any
other physician in this country.
In a letter to DIR. Pierce, Mr.. ]. w Brittin, of
Clinton, Dewitt Co., Ills, (P. o. Box 49, writes:
" For over year was troubled with liver COM
plant. Had no appetite, could keep nothing
my stomach, and had severe pains in my
stomach and bowels. I doctored with home
doctors but did not obtain relief until friend
advised me to take DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. I began taking it at once and after
taking four bottles I think myself cured, as I
can eat anything want and my food never
hurts me-"

While the farmers and mer-

the fall, when the cotton and to-
bacco is being marketed, the bus
mess men and planters on the w.

soon enter upon their money sea-
son, which comes at this time as
a result of their truck crops. The
merchants at all the stations
along the line are now displaying
heavy stocks Of goods to tempt
the people into whose hands the
money will fall first. The farmers
buy goods during the year on
time that are to be paid for in the
Spring just the same as our farm
ers buy expecting to pay in the
fall. The prospects for their truck
crop are said to be unusually
bright, and if the prices are all
right prosperous season is in
store for everybody.

ter Signifies: Some Reflections for
Argus Readers.
Daily Argus of Saturday.
On the morrow throughout the
Christian world the glad song will
be, Christ is risen from the dead,
and men and angels will sing Hal
lelujahs to the resurrected Lord.
Flower-decked affairs, peal ling or
gans, glorious TIE Deums and
worshipping millions, throughout
the Christian world, will proclaim
the grapdest truth ever given to
man, that death has been con-
quered by the Son of Godl
On that first Easter day, in far
away Judea, the angel who kept
watch in the rock-hewn tomb
told the story of the resurrection
Of the body which through the
ages has brought comfort to
countless millions of bleeding
hearts who mourned their dead.
"He is not here; He is risen," has
been whispered by the voices of
angels to hearts that cried out in
agony above newly made graves
through the centuries that make
up the worlds history. To the
souls that have been crucifed on
dark Good Fridays the beautiful
story Of the Resurrection brings
hope and comfort. Because the
tomb where the Saviour lay is
empty, save for the Whitley winged
angel who guards the sacred
spot, Christendom rejoices and
keeps the glorious Easter Day.
The agony of the cross is past;
the silent sleep in the tomb is
over; the risen Christ proclaims
that ''death is swallowed up in
victory" and saints on earth and
saints above sing hallelujahs to
Him who hath put all things
under His feet, even that last
enemy, Death. /"
Easter lilies, like sweet white
swinging censers, will carry the
story of the Resurrection far out
upon the winds of heaven; human
voices will chant songs of tri-
umph in Gods temples and holy
priests will tell of the love and
sacrifice Of the blessed Saviour
for mankind. The beautiful Eas-
ter Day finds the world eager to
listen to the story of the Resur>
rection, whether told in song, in
the fragrance of spring fowers
or from the lips Of priest and
pastor.
The world is growing better
and each Easter Day fnds it a
step advanced towards the mil>
lenium time.
Those accustomed to welcome
Easter with reverent rejoicing,
as day of the highest spiritual
significance, a1e apt to feel re-
gretful, if not resentful, at the
apparent secularization of this
"queen of feasts," in the popular
observance that has ia recent
years become so conspicuous.
The decoration Of the shops, the
display of flowers IN the streets,
the Easter emblems in the win
doWs, seem to cheaper the exalted
sentiment Of the day. Yet al

THE AMERICAN SOLDIER.

The reports from the Philip
pines of the service of our troops
thereare of nature to cause every
American heart to swell with
pride. There has not been one act
of cowardice nor step ofretreat
and good generalship has been
supported by a soldiory whose
courage, patience and fighting
would make the honor page Of
any country stand more glorious
ly forth in it's history.
The campaign in the East has,
however, peculiar qualities which
commend those who are engaged
in it to the hearts of their counts
rymen. To-day, and for the past
few weeks, it is being fought
chiefly by the citizen soldiers,
not one of whom has until within
a few months seen shot fred in
battle, and they are all conduct
ing themselves with the precis-
ion Of regular troops and of vet
erans. Take the list of killed and
wounded, whose fearful length is
printed from day to day. They
are from the volunteers, the boys
from the plow. the clerks from
the stores, and officers who had
only until within less than a year
looked upon soldiery as military
picnic, a playtime period for ar4
mory drills and dances, a matter
of uniform and Irritation. Bnt
back Of this existed the real sols
dier's spirit, the fighting capacity
which belonged to the Old Guard,
thearmles of Marlborough, Crom-
well and Frederick the Great,
Being called upon to exhibit it
they have responded with such
splendid courage that the nation
which sent themforth begins to
realize the potentiality of the
race and to know that it is peos
ple of strength in War as in the
othe channels through which it
has attained grandeur.

THE PEN GETS $4,000.
Committees Warrant Endorsed
by Capt Day.
News ard Observer.

The penitentiary appropriation
deadlock was broken yesterday.
And the public till is this
morning 500 poorer because
Of the break, that amount being
paid by State Treasurer Worth
to the executive committee OF
the new board.
He refused on Wednesday, it
will be remem bered, to honor the
lorder Of the committee, Messrs,
Osborn, aud Travis, for this
amount. This refusal he based
on the ground that the question
of the right to manage the penis
teutiary now bling in litigation
he could not pay out the States
money until officially advised by
the court as to who was the
proper person to receive it,
The failure to get this money
made things lock quite serious
for the penitentiary. It would buy
many things this $40 900 for
many things were needed by the
institution aud there were no
funds with which to purchase IF
crops were to be raised on the
State farms they must first be
| planted. To do this new stock
and farming implements must be
obtained, fertiliz ers must be pur.
chased and seeds bough'; to say
nothing of supplies for the cons
victs.
The Fusionists had let things
generally go to wreck and ruin.
To repair the damage the Lagis.
lature had appropriated $50, 900
and now because of litigation
over the management Of the in
stitution the appropriation was
not available, the State Treasurer
not caring to take any chance on
the decision of the Supreme
court.
The Gordian knot was cut by
Captain Day. AS the money was
to be spent in improvements that
must be made, no matter which
side won, he yes erday morning
endorsed the warrant of the exc
cutive committee Of the new
board This done the State
Treasurer was relieved Of all re
sponsibility and he promptly
forked over the $4,000
'The .penitentiary ought not
to be crippled said Capt. Day,

to be bought they ought to be

The warrant was signed by "E.

Mr.. Travis left on the noon

ought to be expended.
