Who is permanently located in Mari,

ing. He has had such remarkable
success in nine years practice that

your disease, no matter how long it
has existed, or the character of the
disease, or how much treatment you
may have tried, for unless you have
consulted DR.. Swinburne you have not
half tried to get well. This talks loud,
YOU ought to hear it, for it means
health to many who are miserable.

The American Soldier.

'Tis a far, far cry from the minutemen
And times of the buff and blue
To the days of the withering Jorgenscn,
The hands that hold it true.
'Ti5 a far far cry from Lexington
TO the isles of the China sea,
But ever the same the man and gun,
Ever the same are we.
For the blood of the sires atBunller Hill,
Through countless fierce campaigns,
Is as red and eager in peril still
In the depths of the chidrcn's veins.
And the heart and the eye support the
hand,
No matter what odds there be
Ever the same thy sons, oh, land.
Ever the same are we.
Not Il Valley Forge, nor a Wilderness,
Nor hail of a Cuban steep,
Can take ono iOt from our fearlessness,
Who daily thy honor keep.
We carry the flag through varying
From the sign of the old pine tree
To the Stars and Stripes in the Philip
Ever the same are we.
And the lad with the fresh unshaded
mouth
Fights as his fathers fought.
And the man from the north and the man
from the south
Do as their fathers wrought.
And whether from city or farm we come,
We answer the call with elee--
We heroes upspring at the beat of the
drum
Ever the same are we.

The Busy Candidate.

How doth the busy candidate,
Improve each shining hour:

At home or on IL tour.

And preets you cordially,
And hopes that you will iirmly stand,
And cast your vote for me-
You meet him everywhere you go,
No matter where it's at,
He Srects you pleasantly, also,
And always does it pat.
lie helps along in every cause
Rattle or ball or fair:
lie buys Il ticket for them all,
And yet has change to spare.
He goes to church and Is dcvout,--
Next day he's at the fair,
Where you can hear him loudly shout,
Bet fifty on the mare!'
Wherever men do congregate--
Yes, and women. too
There you'll find the candidate
To show his colors true.
lie is the mark for every bum
Who strikes him for a loan;
The dozen friends he had last week
Have to a thousand grown.
He's hustling ere the break of day.
He scarcely stops to eat

Before November bleak.
Then pity him, ye voters all.
His lot is sad and hard,
Give him a little help, tho small,
And he will you reward.

CRIMINALITY OF WOMEN AND
MEN.

IN an article on women and the Emo
tions," by Professor Mantegazza in the
Humanitarian, there are some interesting
statistics showing that those modern So
biologists who hold that women are men s
equals in the field Of criminalty are
wrong. Here are some of them.
Man bears false witness 100 times to d
woman's seventeen.
Man for forgery and counterfeit COIN
ing was convicted 100 times to Il woman s
eleven.
In France women are summoned before
the tribunal four times less than men.
In France in 1850 women delinqucnts
were fourteen to 100 men.
In Italy in the same year there were
only per cent,
In Algeria we have ninety-six male de-
linquents and only four women.
In England and Wales between 1884 and
1872 there were twenty-four women 10
100 men, all for the moro serious offcnses.
In 1871 DIR. Nicholson found In the pris-
ons I'm England S2lS men and LII women.
In Bavaria from 1869 TO 1896, I'm a popu-
lntion consisting solely of peasants. the

The Cow That Kicked Melinda.

She went to milk the COW with her hair
flufed round her brow,
And Il happy little smile upon her lips
Her hands were brown and strong end
she trilled a happy song
But-how many of the safest of us slips
The hired man ran in and made a fearful
din,
AS he hammered on the little cook
house window,
And he filled the house with fright as he
yelled with all his might:
"The COW has kicked Melinda
That silence for n while could be heard
for half mile.
And the horror of 1t sunk in cve.y
heart;
But when the shock was over, like bull
calves into clover,
You ought to've seen that little house,
hold start.
They found the story true, for she was
black and blue;
And her granny pipcd an orler thro'
the window:
"If the milk she mili;nd is spilled, tEcn
the animal must be killed,
The COW that kicked Melinda"
In splendid halls adorning you sit tomor-
row morning.
And spread your little napkin for a
feed:
If you're disappointed much and your
teeth do frequent touch
Something that Is very tough indeed;
As you struggle and you sigh to masti-
cate YOU Try,
And the trolley gong is sounding thro'
the window,
Your spirits l might scar IL I whispered
in yOur ear.
That's the COW that kicked Melinda"

An Excellent Example.

~ ISPATCHES from Berlin, re-
ferring to the seizure by the
- British of a German vessel
in South African waters sus-
pected of conveying soldiers and sup
plies to the Beers, say that the respon-
sible press of Germany is keeping cool
upon the subject. The Neuste Mach.
richten points out that international
law is unable to fix a definite line be-
tween what is and what is not contra
band. While it regards Great Brit
AIMS action as an infraction of the law
In this instance it acknowledges that
there are many precedents. 1t says the
question is one of fact that is bound Id
arise in war in which a sea power is
concerned. The paper adds that the
matter Is now the subject of diplo-
matte negotiations, and there is every
reason to expect that Great Britain will
adjust the incident promptly and fairly.
This is timely object lesson for con-
temptation by those Americans who,
because some American flour was
seized by the British in the same local
ity, wanted to go to war at once. AS
matter OF common sense, when two
powers are engaged in a life and death
struggle the fine points of international
law as evolved by specialists seated in
comfortable libraries are very liable to
be overlooked if the suspicion arises
that third party is attempting any
funny business. This is true of both
individuals and nations: and the sem
sible man as well as the sensible nation
is the one who keeps we'll out of The,
Quarrels in which he is not directly
Interested and thereby avoids the pos
sibility Of being hit by a stray bullet.
England can be held to settlement
for any actual injustice done; but the
neutrals Who go nOsing around for
trouble which is none of their business
deserve very little sympathy when they
find it and don't like II.

Getting at the Facts.

HE GOVERNOR of Indiana,
Hon. James \. Mount. has
H thought out two remedies
for the trust evil. The first
Is 10 take the tariff OFF all articles col-
trolled By trusts in restraint of trade;
ana that seems Nery reasonable when
you are sure OF your facts. The
second is a law that will force CONF
binatlon. when it reduces its prices in
producer, to make exactly the same
price for the whole market. and of
such law the same thing can be said
The chief diIculty in this whole
! matter Is To get hold Of the exact
facts. Anybody can dcnounce trusts
but th2 trouble Is 10 secure a means
whereby an honest ana thorough in
quiry can be made into the operation
and effect OF great corporations. Until
this can be done legislation inspired
principally by the general prejudice
against trusts will he as likely to do
injury to legitimate and wholesome
enterprise as to protect the mass of
consumers.
For certain binds of monopoies,
such as light, water. telephone, tele-
graph or traction companies doing
business by the grace OF the people
who through their representatives vote
the necessary franchises, the best
safeguard that sc have seen advanced
by any student ot this question is the
suggestion of the editor OF the Engl-
neerlng News that the public, in its
laws ~ Incorporation, reserve the
eight 20 claim representation On the
board cf directors. This would apply

rado Wyoming. These require pay
ment Of taxes as conditions: Rhode
Island, Pennsylvania, Delaware, South
Carolina. Georgia. Florida Missis-
sippi. Tennessee, Nevada. Judge
Thomas NJ. Cooley, who Is certainly
as able authority or constitutional law
as this country has ever had, enter
sentcd. and that section ., article
XIV. of the constitution Is ineffective
so far as 1t is sought to he made
operative by Mr.. Crumpacker."
1t is poor cause which cannot
defend itself behind adroit interpre-
iy MIR. Wilson quotes the Fourteenth
amendment, and any one who can un-
derstand plain English must see, as
Judge Crumpacker asserts, that it's
mandate is perenptory that "whcn
the right to vote At any election
Is denied to any CT the male
inhabitants of any state above II
years of age ana citizens of the
United States, "OR IN ANY WAY
ABRIDGED, except for participation
in rebellion or othe: crime, the basis
of congressional representation therein
SHALL be reduced" TO be black is
not n crime. yet in some states male
inhabitants who are above II and AM
erican citizens are, because their skin
is black, and for no other reason
whatsoever, denied the right to vote.
Not only Is their right to vote
| abridged; it is more than that--it Is
Cancelled outright. Ignorance is not n
! crime, within the meaning of the con-
stituton, yet in some states men who
are in every other way qualified to
vote are disfranchised for ignorance.
1t may not be within the power Of
congress to say that property or a
literacy or n grandfather" test for
voting shall not be set up in any
state; but It is within the power of
congress to say that where the suff-
rage Is abridged the representation in
congress shall be abridged in propor-
ton; and the constitution on this point
Is not optional Dut peremptory.

BY the appointment yesterday of Mr..
samuel Williams to fill out the unex-

poor director, Judge Archibald did not
pass upon the legal point as to whether
vacancy exists in consequence OF

but he did make possible test as to
whether the author of the 100000 cleo

vate business in Ohio.
