according to the TimesLDemocrat with
out recalling an incident that occurred a
number of years ago in town out in
Kansas. l was spending a few days in
the pace looking after a cattle deal and
early one evening a patent medicine faktr
put in an appearance on the Court House
square. He was in a fine two-horse rig
and had q partner with a banjo who soon
drew big crowd. Then the fakir pro
ceeded to hawk cure-all liniment at a
dollar a bottle
The price was steep and the stuff went
slowly, and l noticed that at each sale he
wrapped up the bottle in a sheet of white
paper upon which he ostentatiously pen
ciled large cross. When four or five
were disposed of he called on the purchas-
ers to bring up their wrappers and handel
over a crisp dollar bill in exchange for
each. 1 am doing this simply to intro

AT that the sale picked up and when he
had repeated the little comedy of selling
the nostrum and redeemlng the wrappers

other to get to the buggy. and every now

The Philadelphia Record says: Our old
friend 'embalmed beef turns up once
more, as canned roast beef. in the requi-
sitions of commis.ary officers az Manila"
The Record drops into error respecting
"embairned" and canned roast" beef in
supposng them 10 he Identical as a num-
Der Of other of our contemporaries have
done But they are entirely separate and
distinct The "enn balmed' beef was not
canned, but was shipped to Tampa raw,
In quarters, after having been treated
with a chemical compound for the pur-
pose of preserving it. There was. how
ever. almost as much complaint about
the canned roast beef as about the
'embalmed' article. Many of the men
refused to eat il, and threw away their
rations of it. They said it lacked taste
and nutritious properties. and might as
well have been called dessicated hash, or
exDurgated pork, or abridged soap grease
as roast beef. A Second Georgia man
who had considera experience with the
stuff at Tampa gives it as his opinion
that it is the meat residues from
the extracts factories; that after all Of
the juices have been extracted the leav-
ings are compressed into tins and labeled
roast beef" 1t does seem strange chat
this country, great and rich as it is, and
having comparatively inexhaustible sup
ply of first-class canned goods TO draw
upon should compel its soldiers to eat
food against which well grounded objec-
tons have been made. Is the govern
ment under obligation 20 anybody to fur
nish a market for this alleged canned
roast beef"

THE QUAY CASE.

It was by a very slender majority--a ma
jorlty of one-that Mr.. Quay was denied
admission to the Senate. He felt almost
certain that he would be admitted. He
and his friends were constantly urging
the Senate to act on his case. They would
not have been so urgent if they had be-
lieved that there was serious doubt of his
success.
MIR. Quay is very popular with many
senators. His friends are not confined
to the Republican side Of the chamber.
Senator Daniel of Virginia made a ve.y
strong speech in his favor, and it was ex-
pected that Senator Vest would vote for
him. If this expectation had been real
lied Mr. Quay would have been given the
seat for which he commended.
If Mr.. Quay had been admitted,
however precedents would have been dis
regarded and strained Interpretation
given the constitution. 1t is better that
the doors of the Senate were shut against
him than that precedent should have
been made that might have been product
i've Of many evils unforeseen. Had Mr.
Quay been admitted the Governors of Del
aware and Utah would each have appoint
ed a senator, and the Senate would have
had to admit them. Now in each of these
states, as in Pennsylvania, a senator will
have to be elected by the Legislature
before they can have full representation
in the Senate
The vacancy in the Pennsylvania sena-
torship was not one that the Governor of
that state could hll And yet the Cover
nor undertook to fiji it. The Legislature
failed 10 elect a senator. Mr.. quay could
not secure an election, but he had the
power to prevent the election of anybody
else-that Is. his friends would not consent
10 the election of anybody else. The dead
lock continued until the Legislature adj
journed, and then the Governor appointed
Mr.. Quay. It is suppcsab.e that Mr.. Quay,
finding that he could rot be elected,
planned to prevent an election, and to set
into the Senate through an appointment
by the Governor.
The people are demanding that they
shall have more power in the election of
United States Senator's than they now
have. The Quay plan would take from
them about all the power they possess in
the matter. It would practically give the
Governor the right to appoint senators.
1t Is doubtful If Mr.. Quay will ever
again sit in the United States Senate. Eie
will still be a power in the politics of
Pennsylvania. unless he decides to retire
from politics altogether, If he retires Il

An Odd Sort of Hymn.

This is Moultons story-Moulton, Of
Standish, says the Lewiston Journal
Moulton is a Democrat Being a Dem
ocrat, he allows that the ether side will
swallow anything that the party leaders
mix up for them. That is always a fav-
orite allegation OF the other side-or both
sides
Moulton says there wss once an old
minister of his acquaintance who believed
every word there was in the Bible and
everything that appeared IN print with
the sanction of the church. Especially did
he tie 20 Gospel Songs, selected 20
" The choir would have liked 10 get
something a bit more up-to-date, but the
sed minister wouldn's have it. He said
that those songs had been good enoush
for the brothers and sisters of the church
before that day, and he guessed they were
good enough for the present generation
So he continued to sing Gospel Songs
No. 2"
One day some young scapegrace in che
church pasted into that copy of the hymns
devoted to the pulpit desk, printed sir
of very secular song. But so deftly
was the pasting done that 1t would have
taken keener eye than the dim vision
of the old parson to have detected the
fraud.
on Sunday he opened the singing book
90 read the first hymn. He always open
ed by chance, and took the first one the
came to hand. He opened to the page of
deceit. He set his specs on his nose and
commenced to read in a sonorous voice.
I'm a double-j Ointed huckleberry ach-
ing for a fight"
The aged parson read the first line
through. SO sure was he of Gospel
Songs No 3" that he had never stopped
to think that there could be anything
wrong.
Rut there uas q spio1,eripo fro,,, ~,
back pews-and he stopped! He looked
at the line more closely. He shut the
book on his finger and scrutinized the
cover.
Twas all right The cover bore the
words, Gospel Songs. No ." 1t was
surely his book. There were the marks
OF his usage He opened again and set
ting his glasses more firmly, read the
second line.
Il can eat pound of liver raw or
fried"
The Old parson stopped again. Judging
by the laughter. mufled, but none the
less distinct, there was something wrong
with the hymn.
He looked at the line again.
Brethren" said he in a puzzled way
"that doesn't read just right for the sa-
cred songs of holy day. I don't seem
ever to have seen that hymn in this book
before, though I thought l knew every
word of it. 1t is strange-very strange.
But'-and here his voice grew frmer and
his tone louder-"there is no doubt about
this being Gospel Songs No 2'-this book

tried and tested in the church. ] will
therefore, read the other two lines of this
first stanza:
Il can slick a brace of catamounts and
eat EN- when I'm tight

Two months ago my father, who is IS
years old, was stricken down with Bilious

every two hours. l called in our family
doctor and told him what l was doing. He
said it was the right treatment and ad-
vised that 1 continue 1t. He called again
the next day and saw the effect of the
Tonic and gave nothing himself. Within

grown strong. Although IS years old on
