THEY TWO.


~ AAio' ldhh a. XII
They are left alone in the dear old home,
After so many years
When the house was full of frolic and
fun,
OfchildIsh laughter and tears,
they are left alone! they two-once
morei
Beginning life over again,
inst as they did in the DAYS of wore,
Before they were nine or ten.
And the table is set for two these davs.
The children went one by one,
Away from home on the SEPARATE WAYS
When the childhood days were done.
How healthily hungry they used to be-
what romping they used to do!
Ano mother-for weeping-can hardly
see
To set the table for t,oo.
They used to gather around the fire
While some one would read aloud.
But whether at study or work or plav,
twas loving and merry crowd.
ana now they are two that gather there
Al evening to read or sew,
And 1T seems almost too much to bear
When they think of the long ago.
All, well ah, well! tits the way Of the
world!
Children stay but little while,
And then into other scenes are whirled.
Where other homes beguile
But 1t matters not how far thew roam.
Their hearts are fond and true,
AND there's never home like the dear
old home,
Where the table is set for two.-Youth,s
Companion.

A PROOF OF
OSTEOPATHY.
Testimony From One Bedridden For
Five Years.
Collie Forlines, Here in Columbia
Under Treatment of DR.. Ammer-
man, Tells His Own Story.

Collie Fo"lines is a young man 81
years OF age, whose home is near
Lynnville, in Giles county. He is
now in room at Sellars' restaurant,
a bedridden cripple from rheu-
matism, but as smiling as a May
morn, because he has hope; and DR..
zimmerman Is the cause of his hope.
The young man has not been able
to get In or out of his bed, without
help, for two years. For year he
has not been able to turn himself
over In bed, or to move his right arm
or HE right leg the least bit. In ad-
dition to these stiff joints, he was
sore to tue touch all over, and suf-
tered great pain when he had to be
dressed or moved.
Now, well he is still in bad fix;
really pitiable conditions; but be
thinks he has been greatly i'm
proved.
You see," be said to a HERALD
/! reporter, II can move this arm some
Two weeks ago when DR.. Ammer
man gave me his first treatment,
could not move 1t the least bit. You
see can move my right leg also
that 1 could not bulge before. But
what you cannot see," he smilingly
remarked, lis how sore I was, and
how much better I feel now. The
treatment has not Strengthened me
out yet, or changed my looks much
but it has removed the soreness and
improved my feelings wonderfully
Next to the improvement in my feel
ings, the most noticeable improve
ment is that now / can turn myself
over in the bed, which / have mo-
been able t. do for fourteen months
When / think of these things, anC
remember that ] have been under
treatment only two weeks, 1 am en-
couraged to nope that the Doctor
will have me up and about by
Christmas. On crutches, perhaps
but / will enjoy the Christmas
nightly if 1 can get about even OF
crutches."
II have tried everything I coulc
think or hear Of" he continued
"these last five years, but this treat
ment is the only thing that has eve
done me any good or given me any
hope"
1t was sad and pitiful to look a
the young man in his drawn ant
helpless condition, but it was beau
tiful to witness bis cheerfulness anC
his patience and his hope.
He is poor boy. His family ant
friends are barely able to give hin
his board here, and DIR. zimmerman
out of the goodness of his heart, i
giving him treatment free.
The HERALD sincerely hopes tina
he may be able to take up his BET
and walk by Christmas.

IT HAS RELATION TO THE SULU TREATY.
He Claims that the Republican Par
~, with the Approval of the Adj

Theory that the Constitution Does
Not Follow the Flag.

kalamazoo, Mich, Oct. 11.--Wm.
Jennings Bryan took cognizance OF
the letter sent to him by Assistant
Secretary of War Meikleiohn, which
was given out Tuesday, and prepared
a reply to it. The reply says:
VIM. j. Bryan's Response.
at am in receipt of your favor of the
is true that the president, two months
after the signing of the treaty, sent TO
Gen. Otis the instructions which you
quote. You will note that the treaty, or
agreement, as the president describes,
was confirmed and approved subject to
the action of congress, and the only eX-
ception that he made was that in regard
to article 10. relating to slavery. You can
but know, however, that since the presi-
dent sent those Instructions, the repub-
lican party, with the approval of the ad-
ministration, has adopted the theory that
the constitution does not follow the flag,
and therefore, the thirteenth amendment
does not interfere with slavery in the
Sulu archipelago.
The Porto Rican Law.

trine that the people of Porto Rico are
