Beauty

The most beautiful thing in
the world is the baby, all
dimples and JOY. The most
pitiful thing is that same baby,
thin and in pain. And the
mother does not know that a
little fat makes all the differ
ence.
Dimples and Joy have gone,
and left hollows and fear; the
fat, that was comfort and
color and curve--all but pity
and love--iis gone.
The little one gets no fat
from her.food. There is some
thing wrong;itis either her food
or 'food-mill. She has had no
fat for weeks; is living og what
she had stored in that plump
little body Of hers; and that is
gone. She is starving for fat;
it is death, be quick!
SCOTS Emulsion Of Cod
Liver Oils the fat she can
take; it will save her.

SPRINGFIELD REPUBLICAN LOOks
FOR HANDWRITING ON
THE WALL.

There are not wanting experiences
admonishing the republicans not to
presume too much upon their victory
Prosperity-the full dinner pail-is the
most treacherous of ground on which a
political party can plant itself in laying
claim to the support of the people. No
party knows how to command prosper
ity for more than brief period. The
election Of 1872 is still easily within the
memory of men of middle age. The
republican victory was a sweeping one
even after many leading republicans had
left the party in protest against the
tendencies Of the fret Grant administra.
ton. The spirit exhibited by the vic,
tors was needless and intolerant. A
great commercial prosperity reigned and
it was theirs, and it was to continue,
now- that the opposition has been
thrown down so heavily. Never were
triumphant party hopes and promises
more quickly and rudely rushed. With.
in a year from the reelection of Grant
and the going of Greeley to his grave
with a broken heart, came the great
panic Of 1873 and depression extend
ing over five years, compared with
which that Of 1897 was mild. The
democrats swept the country in the
election Of 1874 and elected the presi.
dent in, 1876 on the face of the returns
and this in spite Of the great hafNlicap

DEMoCRACY'S DEFEAT.

The democratic party was defeated in
the country Tuesday after one Of the
most brilliant and aggressive campaigns
IN its history. under strong and popu.
lar leadership and with absolute rights
| on it's side. This is result that is diff
cult if not impossible to explain on the
theory of considerate and intelligent
action on the part of the electorate.
Certainly, on the paramount issue as
presented a large majority of the peo.
pie. if they had studied the question
divested Of party affiliations could not
have failed to stand with the democrats
But party clamor and party nisrepre.
sentation doubtless in a large majority
o. cases prevented any calm consider
alton of the paramount issue presented
by the democrats. Mr.. Bryan, in his
speech of acceptance made the issue
clear and it made deep impression on
the conscience of the nation. Had the
election taken place at once Mckinley
would have been defeated. But from
the appearance Of that speech the tac-
tics of the republican leaders changed,
and every effort was put forth by them
to prevent the issue from being seriously
considered. Prosperity" and .sLet
we'll enough alone" we're dinned into
the ears of all who would listen, and the
most vicious Misrepresentation Of the
plans and purposes Of the democratic
party and its candidate were kept be-
fore the members of their party by
the republican leaders and speakers
until the rank and file Of the republican
party would only see through their pre-
judices instead of through their unbiased
judgment.
The conditions that permit such per.
version of the peoples thoughts could
not fail to bring to the mind Of the stu
dent of history the beginning of the de-
cline and fall of the Roman empire and
the destruction Of italian freedom. De
