Simmer Complaint Prescription.

SIMMER Complaint Prescription.
MIR. EDITOR:
If it Will not take too much of your
valuable space, we would like to give
the mother readers receipt for sum-
mer complaint in children, given us
Yeas agoIoy an EN- nent physician.
He said: keep your childI5u's liver
right and vou will have no trouble
with summer complaint" And here
is his prescription, which we have
tested many times and have never
known it to fail.
Go to a reliable drug store and get
eight grains of calomel, l6 grains OF
prepared chalK, mix thoroughly.
For child one year old or less, di-
vide into II powders, give one every
three or four houts, according to the
severity of the case, until four are
given. In three or four hours give u
teaspoonful of castor oil with two
drops Of laudanum. If the patient Is
not decidedly better repeat the treat
ment next day. This, however, we
have seldom found necessary. In
case of much debility little quinine
and glycerlne and rain water, which
your druggist will prepare, given in
teaspoonml doses three times day
for a few days, with care for the diet,
will bring the little sufferer around
all right, and you will have the tats-
faction of saving your child much
suffering aud yourself DOCTORS fee,
IL you use promptness and common
sense.
II young mothers would only re
member that the worst thing they
can do in the beginning of this dis-
ease is to give any medicine to check
the bowels. If nothing else is a.
hand give castor oil which will carry
Off the offending matter Give II,
little water as possible, but for nour-
ishment give the beaten white of an
egg with little sugar stirred into it
and for a change flavor it slightly as
you would for frosting cake. This
is good to supply a coating for the
stomach and bowels, which is sorely
needed.
If the above does not materially
improve the condition i'm "a or Is
hours. send for physicien for there
is danger of complications, in which
cose we would take no chances.
For a child Is months old or over
divide the prescription into only
eight powders.

THE PRESIDENT SPOKE.
HE Said Rebellion May Delay, but 1t Can
Never Defeat the Mission of Lib
erty and Humanity,

Plattsburg, n. Y. Aug. 16.-Presi-
dent Mckinley left his hotel yesterday
morning and was driven down to the
auditorium on the grounds of the Cath
Ollie summer school of America, at Cliff
haven, on Lake Champlain. The road
from the hotel to the summer school
grounds was lined with people anxious
to get glimpse of the president. A.
the president entered the auditorium
the spectators arose and sang song
composed for the occasion. Rev. NJ.
j. Lavelle, president of the Catholic
summer school, introduced Presi-
dent Mckinley. As President McKin-
ley arose the audience applauded,
cheered, waved flags, haudSerchiefs
and parasols until he made motion
for them to dcsist. He had not in
tended to speak But the warmth of
the greeting which was accorded him
evidently caused him to change his
mind. lie said:
Whatever the government of the United
States has been able to accomplish since last
met you here has been because the hearts of the
people have been with the government of the
United States, our patriotism is neither sec
tlonal nor scctariun. We may differ in our
for country Loyalty to the government Is our
national creed. We follow all of us, one flag.
II symbolizeS our purposes and our aspirations;
II represents what we believe, and what we
mean to maintain, and, wherever it huuts it Is
the nag of the free, the hope of the oppressed,
ana, wherever IL Is aSsailed, with any sacrifice
II will be carried TO a triumphant peace
We have more flags here than we ever had
before They are in evidence everywhere
saw them carried by little ones ON your lawns
ana as long as they carry their huRs in their
little hands there will be patriotism In their
hearts Taut flag now floats from the homes of
the Millions even from our places OF worship;
II Is seen from our schoolhouSos, from the
shops the factories, the mining towns ana it
waves from the camp of the pioneers In the dis
tant outpost ana on the umberman's hut In
the dense forests. 1t is found in the home of
the humblest toiler ana what it represents is
dear to his heart Rebellion may delay, but 1t
can never defeat the blessed mission of liberty
and humanity,
The president spoke slowly and de-
liberately, in a moderate but earnest
tone. Only once did he raise his voice,
when 'he said that the flag, wherever
it is assailed, will be carried to tri-
umphant peace" The cheering which
interrupted his speech at this point
fairly shook the roof and he was un-
able to make himself heard for nearly
n minute. AT the close of the presi-
dents speech the audience Joined in
singing THE Star Spangled Banner"
and they sang it with a will. The au-
dience then formed in line and filed
across the stage and shook hands with
the president.

Through Il Rich Comfy.

The preliminary survey of the ST.
Louis, SLOAN and Southern Railroad to
run from 81, Louis to Fort smith and then
on south to Texas has been completed from
Pomona, Mo, to Fort smith, Ark, by Chief
Engineer ]. B, Policy. A portion of the line
has been let to contractors, and work has
begun on the first 100 miles between Pomo'
ma and Fort Smith. The total distance is
2iS miles. The route is desirable from
financial view, as 1t has combined the least

MULES FOR THE ARMY.
Already 900 Have Been shipped to Ma
nIla and More win Follow-Win
Make "A Pack Train.

Washington, Aug, 10. The problem
of transportation in the Philippines
has been under consideration by the
war department for some time. 1t is
expected that at the end of the rainy
season it will be necessary TO move the
troops some distance from the railroad
and at the present time the means of
transportation are not sufficient for a
large army and extensive operations.
The difficulty has been met by send
ing mules to Manila in large num-
bers. The quartermaster's depart
ment has already shipped about 900
of these animals and will send 900
more very soon. There are nearly ., 900
more owned by the department, which
will be sent if needed. These animals
will not only be used for transporting
supplies in wagons, but it is intended
to organize pack train for carrying
guns and equipments where teams can
not be utilized. The indications are
that the campaign after the rainy sea-
son is to be conducted not only along
the railroad, where Gen. Otis has con-
fined most of his operations, but that
the interior of Luzon will be pene-
trated.

NATIVES UP IN ARMS.


Manila, Aug. II, via Hong Kong,
Aug. 1G.-Arrivals and mail advices
from Negros and Cebu agree that the
insurrection is gaining strength re-
markably in both those islands, which
had hitherto been counted as the most
friendly in the archipelago, and which
received with the greatest cordial
ity Prof. Schurman, president of the
United States advisory commission
for the Philippines, at the time of
his memorable tour. Outbreaks are
feared, particularly. in Cebu, where
some of the leading men have gone
over to the insurrection. Many of
the wealthy inhabitants are preparing
to leave the island. The results of the
autonomist government in Negros are
disappointing Insurgent bands are
operating there, as they did in Cuba,
destroying much plantation property ,
claims for which are being presented
to Gen. Otis. Officers of the United
States gunboat Wheeling, which has
returned here from cruise along the
northern coast of Luzon, report that
the insurgent forces occupy every viii
lage.

1t is funny how the location OF that
postoflice has wabbled. First there
came the directions from the Depart
ment to put it in the Robinson build
ing. But the lots named in this let
ter were not the ones on when the
Robinson building is located, but on
the north side of the square. The
postmaster accordingly wrote for
more explicit instructions, and got
word to move into the Acers building.
In the meantime letters had gone to
the Departmental it now trans
pires-to the effect that there were
three joints in the block in which the
Acers building is situated, and the
Acers lease was cancelled by wire
and saturday the postmaster re-
ceived the following letter.

The Dispensary.

The action taken by the legislature on
the dispensary or state saloon PROPOSE
ton is undoubtedly the best that could
have been adopted. A number Of
schemes for the enforcement of the idea
were advanced, but none Of them stood
the test of law when subjected to the
scrutiny of learned attorneys. The dis
pensary committee of the senate, COM
posed of temperance men and friends of
the idea, labored earnestly for nearly
two months to frame a pratlcal measure.
with the result that when the bill reach.
ed tue house Rev. Carhart, president
and representative of the Anti.Saloon
League, appeared before the committee
and declared it was unconstitutional in
many respects and unsatisfactory to him
in its scope and character. These peo-
pie wanted, not dispensary, but pro-
hibition bill, and when the legal aspects
of the case was considered this was the
only disposition that could have been
made Of the matter with any possibility
of being upheld by the courts. But the
people did not vote for prohibition, and
the state had just emerged from an un-
satisfactory experiment with that pro
position. The vote by which the bill
was rejected in the house was not parti-
san. but the vote by which the senate
submitted the question of repeating the
dispensary clause of the constitution was
strictly so. The people will vote two
years hence to repeal the dispensary
clause, or to uphold it, as the case may
be, and in the meantir the license law
will remain in force. There is nothing
to the talk that the state is now without
a law governing the sale of liquor. The
courts of other states have decided that
constitutional provisions like the dis
pensary proposition are not self execut
ing and that existing law remains in
force and effect until the legislature alb
rogates it by the enactment of repeating
statutes. Aberdeen News.

The Sioux Falls Press Of the 18th says
The people of South Dakota will well
come the news that the First regiment
of South Dakota volunteers will soon re-
turn from the PHILIPPINES. Alderman
Dolittle has so announced last night on
the authority of Senator Pettigrew who
had it direct from Secretary of War AL
ger that the South Dakota boys will be
discharged at once.
The boys enlisted for the war with
Spain. They served their country faith
fully until peace was declared and have
served as faithfully while restraining
Aguinaldo and his impatient follow
ers.
Not all will return who went away.
Some have died of disease, some have
been slain in battle, and some will re-
main in Manila to engage in business,
but those who return will receive a
royal welcome from their friends in
South Dakota.

Electricity as applied to the workings
of mines and mining machinery is com.
ing to the front with giant strides. The
waterfalls of the country are being uti
lized in way that sounds like the read
ing of fairy tale. Power, generated
by the fall of water, is being transmit
ed over wire to mines and mills which
are located so miles away. This power
is ample, not only to run all the machin-
cry in the mill and hosting works, but
affords light in the mines, making its
dark est recesses almost as light as day.
