KNEW HIS BUSINESS.
Knew Something Besides What He
 Read in Books.

The wise, up-to-date modern doctor is no longer tied down to the hard and fast rules of what his medical books say he shall use and what he may withhold in treating his patient The successful doctor nowadays is the one who is quick to avail himself of any
 remedy, new or old, which holds out a chance of cure no matter whether 1t is Allo- pa athic, Homeopathic or neither one. pr. Jennison, in an interesting article on indigestion and dyspepsia says: Nine tenths of all people, who apply to me for | advice and treatment think they have this l ailment or that ailment, but find on close examination that their whole trouble arises from poor digestion.
 They have little appetite and If they do have an appetite the food they eat does
 them no good. Why? Because il is bp. half digested, causing thin blood, weak nerves, sleeplessness, aching bones, pains in chest forma ton of gases, belching, etc. They tell me they believe they have con-
 sumption, or heart disease, rheumatsEI, nervous prostration in fact most every dis- ease but the right one.
 In reality the whole trouble is In the stomach and nowhere else. Now what do I do with such people? I don't feet them on pre-digested foods like babies, nor "stom- ach bitters'' nor patent nostrums which know nothing about No honorable physi- clan will prescribe a remedy unless he
 knows what it contains and its probable effects.
 For all such patients have but one pre- scription. I advIse them to go to the near est drug store and get 50-cent box of Stu arts Dyspepsia Tablets. I use them with remarkable success in all cases of indiges- ton and stomach trouble, because 1 know what Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets consist of and what they will do. They contain the vegetable essences, diastase and govern ment test pepsin which are the things every weak stomach lacks to restore nat ural digestive vigor and if I had dyspepsia myself it is the one remedy I should take
 When a patient comes to me complaining of dull headaches, sour stomach, bad taste, nervousness, belching of gas or heart trouble which is generally caused from in- digestion I tell him to take one or two of Stuart's Tablets after each meal and as often during the day as he has any trouble, and I feel confident I have given that pa- tient the best advice I could giye
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are large, pleasant tasting lozenges, containing dias- tase and pepsin combined with fruit and vegetable essences. They are not cathartic and do not act on any particular organ like ordinary drugs, but simply act entirely on the food eaten. They are natural di- gestive, pure and simple.
 Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are sold by druggists at 60 cents per package through out the United States, Canada and Great Britain

THE IDEAL REPUBLIC.
SPLENDID PERORATION OF MR. BRY.
ANS SPEECH OF 4 ACCEPTANCE.

. Behold a republic resting securely
upon the foundation stones quarrled
by revolutionary patriots from the
mountain Of eternal truth--a republic
applying in practice aud prnrlaiming
tu the word the self-evidcnt proposi-
tiun that all men are created equal:
that they are endowed with lnalien-
able rights: that governments are in
stituted among men tn secure these
rights: that governments derive their
just powers from the consent OF the
governed. Behold Il republic in which
the civil and religious liberty stimu-
late all To earnest cndcavor and in
which the law rcstrains every hand
uplifted for "A nclghbor's injrry-a re-
public in which every citizen is Il
sovereign. but in which no Que cares
10 wear crown. Behold "A republic
standing erect while empires all
around are bowed beneath the weight
Of their own armaments-a republic
whose flag is loved. while other flags
are only feared. Behold Il republic in
creasing in population. in wealth. in
strength and in influence solving the
problems Of civilization and Fastening
the coming of an universal brother
hood--a republic which shakes thrones
and diSsolves aristocracleS by its silent
example and gives light and insplra-
tion TO those who sit in darkness.
Behold "a republic gradually. hut sure
Iy. becoming the supreme moral factor
in the worlds progress and the ac-
cepted arbitcr Of the worlds disputes
"a republic whose history, like the
path of the just, is as the shining
light that shineth more and more unto
the perfect day"

AS militarism seems to be the new
order of Americanism, it would not
be a bad idea to have a school estab-
ished in our region for the training
of the youth to the use of arms. The
modern weapon. such as machine
guns, Winchesters, etc, require
knowledge of the handling of them
and the sooner our boys become ac
auainted therewith the more efficient
will they be in supporting the author
ity OF our State and municipality
There Is no better location than Pas
caroula for a military institute.

A writer in the St. Louis Post. Dis
patch discusses the effects Of the trusts
upon the prices OF building material
| In 1897 he built a shed on his premises
and this year he built another of Lne
same size. For the first shed ouiit'
the lumber cost sl6.2S, the nails 70 Gus
and the locks and hinges 30 CENTS or
total OF $3.50. The material for the
shed this year cost: Lumber s29.oo'
nails sI.75, locks and hinges $l.25,
total OF $32. so, or nearly twice the cost
in 1897. He says: 81 received sl'lO
per day in 1897, and l receive the same
today. Three years ago worked six
teen days to pay for the shed this
Summer l worked thirty days to pay
for a shed the same size" Under the
Republican policy of protection the
trusts are enabled to secure almost
any price they desire for manufactured
articles and the burden has to be borne
by the laboring man. 1tseem strange
In view OF this that laboring men Will
vote for the Republicans In preference

LO, THE SUMNER GIRL.

That lies halfway
Between the frost and flowers;
Her pink checks redden in the sun,
And, with greeting smile and nod,
She comes to earth upon bluebird's
wing
And tip-toes into June
On rosebuds blushing sweet
Beneath her dainty tread.
Gowned in a garniture of flimy white
Or fluffy pinks and blues
And every varying tint and shade
OF bossom-time,
She skins above the green earth's
breast
Just high enough to reach mems hearts;
She makes the world her own,
And man her slave,
And as a queen she reins
Upon her hammock throne,
Or sits in state upon hotel porch
Surrounded by her court;
The ribbons of her sailor hat
Are rainbow-tinted letters,
jects
OF her sway;
Her tinsel parasol
Is sceptred in her hands,
And from its shade she rules
retinue of swains;
Down by the sea
She walks the silver strand,
Where emerald waves break into foamy
white
And lay their broken bodies at her feet !;
] She murmurs nothings to hundred
ears,
And gives her smiles to honeyed tongues
That tell of manly hearts in thrall to
| her:
The lazy, lambent moon
Lies crescent in the sky
For her to hang her witcheries on,
And all the little stars,
With twinkling eyes that sparkle in
the blue,
Laugh silently to see
This sorceress of the summer time
Work moonshine into mystic spells;
The sunshine drops its dazzle
In her hair, her eyes, her smile;
The flowers fold their fragrance round
her
AS she moves;
The roses lay their leaves upon hel
cheeks,
The lilies on her hands,
And everything in sight is hers
She leaves the land
To meet the cool caresses of the sea,
And Neptune sets a short-robed queen
Upon his billowy throne;
The saucy waves come up to kiss hel
cheeks
And slip away, as laughingly she dares
Them to do their worst;
Sunburned, she stands upon the shore
And, gazing outward DER the sea, sht
weeps
For other worlds to claim as hers.
Up from the sea
To where the mountains touch the Sky
And bathe their dark-green brows
In silver clouds,
She takes her way,
All-conquering as she comes;
The waving trees
Bend down their sheltering boughs
To touch her passing underneath;
The gray crags soften
When she rests on them;
The murmurous hum of forest life
Grows still to hear her speak,
And what she says to any him
; Who worships her
In those primeval shrines
Is hidden in the hearts of flowers,
Where bees may come to gather it
And lock it in their hives.
She rules the mountains
AS she rules the shore,
A flirting phantom,
Frivolous and fair;
A dream of fluffy pink and white
That ne'er comes true;
A bright intangibility;
: A fantasy of music, moonlight, love ant
: flowers,

but of the nation and the race.
"Let them first school themselves
who would first school Others"
AS there is so much discussion pro

will add that tn abolish corporal pm
ishment you must educate the mother
teach her to value herself and make
the babies value her.

flying whims she will suffer the great
est anguish Il mother can endure-the
ingratitude of Il thankless child.
She must be consistent, and not
Taught at him one time and punish
him another. When she says no she
must mean it, 50 that she does not
feel bound to explain to child the
why's and wherefores.
Her face should show frmness and
expectation of obedience.
A punishment should be given in a
firm. never in an angry manner.
Look to the future good of the child

BOND SALE POSTPONED.

Governor Longino, says the Jackson
correspondent to the New Orleans
Picayune. is making fiscal investiga-
ton which he hopes will Justify him
in recalling the advertisement for bids
on. $3.50, 900 of State-h0use bonds, To be
sold October 2.
The procrastination OF the sale OF Il
fourth of the State.house bonds for
even one year would save in interest
in one year $4,000.
The Governor is determined to save
the taxpayers every cent he can, aud
with this view called on Auditor Cole
for an estimate of the receipts and ex-
penditures of the State for the nexj
two years. That capable and pains
taking official furnished the Governor
statement, showing the cash in the
treasury on the July account to be
1915, 600. and that the State will collect
in taxes for 1900 81, lOO O0O The priv.
ilege taxes for 1900 he estimates at
1870, 900, and from other sources about
100000 will be received. The State
will receive on privilege taxes for 1899,
yet to be collected, the sum of $780, 900,
and the polls for 1900 amount to $780,
600, making a total of 1854 900 as. the
States resources for the present year.
The liabilities for the present year
will be 50, ,52S,0O0 This sum includes
all the legislative appropriations for
the years l9OOand 1901, and the figures
that when the legislature meets in
January, 1902 there will be balance
of $4,000 in the treasury.
The Governor will carefully go over
the whole matter, and it is hoped that
he will be able to finance the States
affairs so as to avoid the sale Of bonds.
1t will te remembered in this connec-
tion that the State tax was reduced
under this administration half mill,
it being 81 mills last year.
