Story of a Slave.

To be bound hand and foot for years
by the chains of disease is the worst
form of slavery. George D. Williams,
OF Manchester, Mich. tells how such a
slave was made free. He says: "My
wife has been SO helpless for five years
that she could not turn over in bed alone.
After using two bottles of Electric Bitters,
she is wonderfully improved and able to
do her own work." This supreme RENE.
dy for female diseases quickly cures ner-
vousness, sleeplessness, melancholy,
headache. bachache, fainting and dizzy
spells. This miracle working medicine
lis a godsend to weak, sickly, run down
people. Every bottle i, guaranteed.
Only so cents. Sold by T. R. Shaw,

Sine wan ProbabIy sen.

Washington, March T.-It is
learned that the purpose of the
government to acquire the island
of st. Thomas for a reasonable
consideration from Denmark, has
not been abandoned, nOtwithstand-
ing the statements attributed to
the Danish ministers indicating a
decision not to part with the island.
While it is not contemplated that
any pressure should be brought to
bear upon Denmark on this mat
ter, it is still. believed that the last
announcement in the case is per
haps only an evidence of a pur-
pose on the part of the Danish au-
thorities to secure a higher price
for the island than the United
States had regarded as proper
1t is probable that no active eff
fort will be made by our govern
ment to hasten the negotiations on
this subject, but having learned
that the finances of the island
showed deficit last year of $75,-
900, in spite of the most rigid
economy in the administration. a
sum charged up against the home
government, it is believed that
our terms will ultimately be ac-
cepted, if reduced to a concrete
proposition to pay So, 900, 900 for
st. Thomas and st. Cruise.

to mistake the abbreviation Sh. for

Truly = Generous Man.

Some days ago fine milch COW
belonging to Willie Prater and his
MOI her was killed by a stray shot
from target gun, near the Oil
mill gate. Although no ore knew
who fred the gun. but merely be-
cause the cow was killed near Mr..
w. r. Moore's premises. he paid
to the owners yesterday $50 for
their loss. For such sum Mrs.
Prater and her son desire to ex-
press their kindest thanks to Mr..
Moore.
Inasmuch as Mr.. Moore, mana
ger. of the Oil Mills, was in no way
personally responsible for the loss,
the payment of the cows value to
the owners is indeed very liberal.
