THE UNIVERSITY.

The middle at the West Virginia
University has been settled by leav-
ing it unsettled. The board of re-
gents last Friday, by vote Of five to
four, refused to accept the resignation
of President Raymond, and though
the matter was discussed with much
vigor, there was nothing done to I'M
prove the situation. Regents Powell,
Kunst, Davis and Eastman voted in
favor of accepting the resignation. Re-
gents Mcmahon, Sturgiss, Brown,
Campbell and Hamill voted to retain
President Raymond in his position.
The regents considered the charges
against Profs. Armstrong, Hartigan,
Brown, Douthat and Stewart, but they
refused to dismiss them, as DR.. Ray
mond had recommended, though they
passed an order that in the future in
subordination on the part Of the pro-
fessors and students would be severely
dealt with
The most sauguine observers Of the
state Of affairs at the University can
scarcely be hopeful of prosperity under
the present situation. The faculty is
at loggerheads with each other, the
president is bitterly opposed by a
great majority Of the people of the
State, and the regents are regarded
with anything but respect. We hope
that the outcome may be better than
the prospect now appears, and we
think the proper course IS for the peo-
pie to support the University, with
the hope that out Of the present situa-
ton good may finally come. If DR..
Raymond is to stay, let's lock at his
good qualities-he has many Of them
and support him in his work. We
have always believed that he las the
welfare of the University at heart, and
it will be better to help than to him
der him.
We reiterate our opinion, however,
that several Of the regents ought to
send in their designations.

The Eminent Kidney
and Bladder Specialist.

There is a disease prevailing in this
country most dangerous because so decep-
tive. Many sudden deaths are caused by
it-heart disease, pneumonia, heart failure
or apoplexy are often the result of kidney
disease. If kidney trouble is allowed to ad-
vance the kidney poisoned blood will attack
the vital organs, or the kidneys themselves
break down and waste away cell by cell.
Then the richness Of the blood-the albumen
leaks out and the sufferer has Bright's
Disease, the worst form of kidney trouble.
Dr.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root the new dis
covery is the true specific for kidney, bladder
and urinary troubles. II has cured thousands
Of apparently hopeless cases, after all other

Root and its wonderful cures. Address

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to cure deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an lniamed con-
dition of the mucous lining of the Eu-
stachian Tube. When this tube gets in
famed you have rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is en-
tirely closed deafness is the result, and
unless the inflammation can be taken
out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed for
ever: nine cases out of ten are caused
by catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case of Deafness (caused by ca
tarrh) that cannot be cured by Halls
Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars, free.

But am confident, dear wife, that your

to have eternal life where love IS not.
for another life would be but naught If

been stained and polluted by the heart

we do not know which is the greatest

arms or he who journeys all the length
of life's uneven road. But love will be

the mother of beauty which brings us
