SnChemic Wisdom.

Some time ago it transpired that some
government authorities consulted the
Sioux chiefs concerning their wishes in
the matter of education for their young
men.
The old fellows We're ready for the in
quiry and at once replied, i'll effect, that
they wanted "two things taught-the
English language and agriculture"
In the country those two accomplish
ments comprise about all that is indis-
pensable to content and success.
Though moderate i'll demand and sen
sible in selection, they furnish the idea
primarily in the minds of the writers of
public school law-that the people S
money should be used only for popular
education i'll the elementary course.
1t comes to pass, therefore, that all
public money spent in high-school
tuition is so much taken from the edu-
cation of the true beneficiaries of the
law-the primary element of the school
population.

Horrors.

The Cumberland Nc"S, among others,
entertains fear degenerating into the
shivers that Bryan, if elected, will pack
the supreme court with judges who will
give the icy quietus to the gold value of
United States bonds.
Mr.. Bryan has a distinguished prece-
dent for such a course in the action of
president Grant in the construction of
the legal tender Act, when the people
were compelled by packed court to re-
ceive money i'll payment of all debts
which the government itself would not
take in payment of certain current dues.
Even the retroactive provision, especi-
ally Objectionable, was especially upheld.
Mr.. Bryan could not possibly do worse.

There's something about the little
black dress that touches a man in a very
tender spot. He pats the little one on
the head, puts some pennies in her hand,
swallows hard and ~tlien-starts out to
make his children fatherless. There
is no doubt that many a man is taken
from his family by neglect of simple
precautions which would preserve his
health. Disease generally begins nova
days in "stomach trouble" because the
meals are hasty and the food not Iii
gested. From that beginning come dis
orders of the blood, liver, kidneys. heart
or nerves. The use of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, for. diseases
of the organs of digestion and nutrition
will avert the catastrophe of more seri-
Gus disease. 1t strengthens the stomach,
puriies the blood, nourishes the nerves,
and builds men up in both brain and
body.
