A Sad Death.

According to an Exchange there was
a very sad death down in the PecOs
valley the other day, and the incident
shows the rapidity with which crops
grow in this country. II knew friend
who planted some airly cowcumber
seeds says the unfortunate mans neigh

felt sumethin' CROWN round his legs.
He looked, and I'll be gosh abbergasted
il it wasn't them vines a-growing and
a-twistin' round him. He put his hand
in his pocket for knife and found a
cowcumber that had gone to seed. He
yelled for help, but before anyone could
reach him the vines had checked him to

About one month ago my child, which
is fifteen months old, had an attack of
diarrhoea accompanied by vomiting. l
gave it such remedies as are usually
given in such cases, but as nothing gave
relief, we sent for a physician and it
was under his care for week. AT this
time the child had been sick for about
ten days and was having about twenty
five operations of the bowels every
twelve hours, and we were convinced
that unless it soon obtained relief it
would not live. Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera. and Diarrhoea Remedy was
recommended, and decided to try it.
l soon noticed change for the better; ;
by its continued use complete cure
was brought about and it is now per-
fectly healthy.-C. l.. Boggs. Stump

A lot of hoodlums who thought it
would be great fun to exercise their
small wit on modest looking woman
on Staten Island ferryboat, found that
they had unwittingly selected as their
victim the wife of Roosevelt Rough
Rider. Worse still, the Rough Rider
was on the boat, and the wife com
planned to him. A man who had taktn
part IN the charge of San Juan Hill was
not likely to stand idly by while a crowd
of callow youths affronted his wife.

COMING To HIS SENSES.

The President Realizes That Larger
Army Is Needed in the Philippines.
WASHINGTON, June 18-The opin-
ion is rapidly gaining ground that,
while the president Is still trying to
stave off the sending of further large
army to the Philippines, he has come
to recognize the probability that a
large body of troops will soon have to
be called for. While there is no doubt
that our present force in the islands
can ably cope with the Insurgents in
an engagement. yet their numbers are
not sufficient to conquer the country,
holding all ground that is taken, and
gradually cutting down the dominion
under insurgent control.
The presidents reluctance to call
for the troops. that are now almost
universally conceded to be necessary,
is leading to some very severe cIiti-
cism, which may bring about disas-
trous results. Some who have talked
with him and with war department
officials today say that the president
has come to realize that something
conclusive must soon be done, and that
if decisive blow is not given the
insurgents soon, he will yield to neces-
sity and call for large force of Yolun-
teers. 1t is said that if he concludes to
make the call. it will not be by states,
but that volunteer officers who have
shown ability will be commissioned to
raise regiments where they may,
without respect to state lines.
