BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION.

The skin is the seat Of an almost end.
less variety Of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action Of the skin.
2 TO Have a smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations Of
arsenic and potash and the large number
Of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per-
manenty the ugly blotches and the red,
disfguring pimples.

THE CASE OF HENRY YoUrsEY.

The conviction Of one of the alleged
conspirators OF the Goebel case is thus
referred to- in a fair spirit by the Chit
Scago TribIne:
Henry Youtssy has been adjudged
guilty Of the murder Of William Goebel
and sentenced 10 life imprisonment.
The trial Which has ended thus is in
Some RESPECTS unique and 1t does not
reflect much credit upon kentuck. jus
ticf. The fact that this was the third
OF the Goebel murder trials in which
the jury was made up of an abnormal
preponderance of democratic jurymen
is not reassuring. But the unique feat
ure of the case is found in the unex-
5pected and difficult question of court
practice which Judge cantrill was
called upon 10 decide. owing to The un-
precedented mental and physical col-
lapse of he prisoner during the trial.
The judge granted postponemeLts for
tive days ard then ruled that ths trial
should goon. H. decided that the law
gave no option except to carry a trial
to the end when il was once begun. In
ease the prisoner was found guilty he
said he would postpone the sentence
until the question Of sanity had been
passed upon by a jury. In accordance
with this ruling the witnesses were
heard and the trial proceeded With the
prisoner lying on a cot within sight of
Iaths Jurors. His body was present but
his spirit Was absent. Under these
strange conditions the jury was com
lpelled to bring in verdict. The idea
that the man was shanlming has been
thoroughly dispeiled by the nature OF
!, his actions ana by the testimony OF
medical experts. His attorneys hold
! that il, is unfair TO try a man when he
lis unconscious and cannot speak for
himself or advise with his counsel. This

stances can hardly be just, and it seems
inhlsnan. Under American law a pris-
oner is supposed 10 be innocent until he
has been proved guilty. The spectacle
of a man placed in jeopardy of deatt
sentence while i'll and unconscious Is
unpleasant to contemplate.

HAPPIEsT CLASS Of People.

In writing of The Happiest Class Of
People" in the Woman's Home Conn
panion for October John Gilmer Speed
arrives at the following conclusion: II
have told you who are the unhappiest
men and now it is my pleasant duty to
speak of the happiest state. Solomon
indicated it in his petition. Give me
neither riches nor poverty. There is
in that. as in most OF the proverbs
both definition and description. Neither
riches nor poverty. i need say. little
more. We all know what the alterna.
tive is-that middle state where the
income safely exceeds the expenditure.
Then man can be happy-and he have
a good temper and a robust digestion
Fit does not make much difference what
goes on around him. He is safe, and
for the time being at least his family
is secure. The best thing about this
happiest state is that it has within it
such tremendously large class. 1t is
not only a man here and there that be-
longs within it; the men are legions. In
this country it embraces all of the great
middle class. And the very great ma
inriiy of them do not even know that
theirs is the happiest state; they DO not
dream now we'll they are off. Some of
them, being wrong headed men, envy
their richer neighbors:: some others
throw away their valuable suficiency
in he entaeavort to get riches: some
Others get riches and are not as happy
as they We're before. Let those who are
in this happiest state continue III it il
they can, for the world at large and
the country a home has great need of
them. They constitute the great con-
SENTATIVE force-the force which pre-
vents the democratic country from go
ing pell nell to smash; they represent
the solid honesty which stands midway
between ihe madness of a too rapid So
scial reform and the Unsuitable greed OF
the INSCRIPTIONS who look upon the
whole world as a gold mine that be-
longs TO them by right OF inheritance or
purchase. Happy should be the land
where this class is very great; and ii is
Greater in the United States than any
where else in the world.

PEOPLES PARTY PLANS
WILL MEET THE DEMOCRATS
HALF WAY.

KANSAS CITY, Mo, May 25.-John W.
Breidenthal, of Topeka, a member of the
executive committee of the Peoples
Party, came to Kansas City today, to
engage headquarters for the Peoples
Party national committee during the
Democratic national convention. The
committee will be in position to confer
ncans or the Democratic national con-
vention which may be appointed for that
purpose. When asked whether his party
would ask that a conference committee
be appointed to discuss candidates and
the making of a platform with the DEM
ocrats, Mr.. Breidenthal said:
The Peoples Party committee will be
here during the Democratic national con-
vention, and is profoundly interested in
the action of the convention. There are
lot of Democrats in the South and
East Who would resent any interference
on our part with the deliberations of
that convention They do not look at
things exactly as Western Democrats do,
and for that reason we will not take
the initiative, but If the Democrats want
to confer with US we will be here. That
is all 1 care to say about it,
The object of your coming Is to in
sist upon the nomination of Towne for
vice-president, is it not?"
Il do not want to express myself fur
ther on that subject or say more about
the nature Of our instructions than I
have indicated"
