 Genuine FeminInity.

Her picture is run in with the ad and her testimonial Is surely heap fulsome for a yolun- sary contribution. In the course of Ter remarks she says, T abhor a per tuned woman. It is to take short, 1erky Diff at this remark that I emerge 4fon my cave and leap into the fracas, love perfumed woman. I think a speffumed woman is the real thing in s9 emininity-the daintily perfumed 1woman. who, when she swishes by you, has something about her that makes you vaguely remember the old honeysuckle covered porch that you knew quarter Of century ago: who carries with her the suggestion of asphodelian dales and starlit meadows It isn't particularly because of the elusive, hop-smoky, n-of-Daphne fragrance that the perfumed woman daintily emits that I think she's the one and only real thing in long draE- cries. It's because she typif1es the fem mine woman. Gimme a Tyre, or a harp, or a fuglehorn, or kazoo-any old thlng-that I may sing the praises and the glories of the feminine wom- an. She was here in the worlds early dawn, and she's going to be right here alongside of Us when we're having SPAS round trip excursions to Mars! Ig6 because she's feminine that she's a4orable! It's because every once in awhile she gets her work done early so she can go upstairs and have 8 good cry;' It's because she erushes us Into pulp with her because; it's be- cause she admits our premises and de- nies our conclusions; it's because she'll begin to purse her lips for baby talk when she sees an infant block away; it's because she loves roses and lacey things and only $2 per pound candy; it's because she gives us the reproachful eye when we ought to be sewed up in blanket and clubbed; it's because she'll dig and delYe and scrape and scrap for her husband and her little ones until icy stalactites hang from the roof of Gehenna; it's because she dabs her eyes with little wad of mouchoir until her nose is red when she sees real human suffering; it's just because she's feminine, Bill. and therefore such a derned big sight better than we are, that she had us on the lope and plum loco over her ever since the days of the Hyksos kings Of Egypt Gimme a lute that may chant of the physical, mental, moral and spiritual loveliness of the perfumed, who is also the feminine woman!

TACK IN His LUNG.
For Seven Years It Had Been There
 Until He Coughed It Up

Until He Coughed It Up
 A boy F years old, driver by occu, patton. writes Dr. Andrew " Jova of Newbucg and complained of having had a severe cough with expectoration for seven years. Last April he said that the cough had been worse for three weeks; he was unable to eat and felt weak. He had a slight hemorr haze few days before. The tongue was thielzly coated. Expeetoration was profuse and fetid. Respiration, Al; temperature, 104 degrees Fahrenheit; pulse, 146. Physical examination of the chest showed, on the left side. percussion normal; there was an exaggerated respiratory murmur over the entire lung with slight rough ness. On the upper side percussion was normal The respiratory mur- mur was slightly bronchial. In the lower part, especially over the back and side, percussion was dull, and there was almost complete absence of the respiratory murmur. Two or three nights later he coughed up tack seven-eighths of an inch long, we'll preserved except that 1t was covered with rust and thick, dark mucus. On the following morning the respiration was 30; pulse, 100, and temperature. 102 degrees Fahrenheit. From over the lower part of the lung came a gurgling sound and over a circum- seribed space about two inches in dt- ameter caverpous breathing. Three days later the respiration, pulse and temperature were normal The patient rapidly recovered and soon was able to resume his occupation, but he still coughs little, and there Is some dull ness over the lower part of the lung, with broncho-vesicular breathing. His mother says that seven years ago, when he was 10 years old, he swal- lowed tack while playing. He had experienced slight choking sensation at the time, but it soon passed away. He had coughed ever since, however, and she consulted several physicians, who ridiculed the idea of the tack and told her the boy had bronchitis.-New York World.

disappointing. There wa a good
deal of red fire and hurrsl boys,
but a lack of real, effective good
accomplished in behalf of lIr. En-
cry. His speech was ramb ing and
pointless, with good deal of big I
and little u-the personal E,ronoun
being conspicuous from start to
finish. He does not want to go to
Congress, yet he accepts the chance
offered him like a drowning man
grasping at Il straw. He says he is
a Lincoln Republican, yet he enters
contest against the regular nomi-
nee of his party. A beautiful
specimen of a Lincoln Republican!
A regular burlesque on the term.
His platform is cunningly put to-
gether, and is intended to catch
"suckers' from all parties. He
straddles every issue; carries water
on both shoulders, and ponders to
every political taste. In his whole
speech he does not advance a single
argument against the election of
Mr.. Sibley. Not the least excuse
or apology does he-a Lincoln Re-
publican-offer for assuming the
role of party wrecker. His plan
is to catch Republican votes with
the understanding that the Demo-
Gratis will vote for any man in their
mad desire for revenge upon Mr..
Sibley, and will flock to the sup
port of Mr.. Emery-a Lincoln Re-
publican! We think that some
body will be badly fooled and
sucked-in by this farce. All Dem
ocrats are not fools or idiots, and
they know they have a friend and
a faithful, popular representative
in Mr.. Sibley, who has proven him
self to be too good a representative
to be turned down by the people of
this district at the mere behest of %
few disgruntled politicians who are
after his scalp for their own per-
sonal benefit.

ing him their support. Judging
from the equivocal meaning of his
remarks upon this important ques-
tion it appears that he has deter
mined to assume a sort of luke-warm
position in the matter so as not to
offend his coterie of followers who
are possessed of variegated political
ideas. 1t is the general impression
that as this is one of the most per-
tinent issues of the campaign that
Mr.. Emery should have dealt with
it conclusively in his platform and
not shifted the responsibility by
stating that he will be governed, if
elected, as the will of the majority
at large demands. By this it may
be inferred that in event of Mr..
Bryan being elected Mr.. Emery
would vote with the members of
Congress who are in favor of chang
ing our present monetary system.
Now that Mr.. Emery has assumed
the role of a political leader there
is no good reason why he should
not give expression to his personal
convictions and not endeavor to
court support by attempting to con-
form his ideas to suit those of al
most every political belief, for in
this he can never succeed to the
satisfaction of any class. Were he
to come out boldly and state his
position he would at least command
the respect if not the support Of all
parties. Mr.. Emery's attempt to
sit down on two stools at once is
certain to result in a fall.

Do You Want a Change?

In the above five words is the
issue Of the political campaign this
year, in county, district, state and
nation. The Omaha Bee says this
is a simple question that every citi-
zen will ask himself before he casts
his ballot and the verdict will de-
pend upon the conclusion reached
by a majority of the $1,000, 900
voters who will record themselves
on one side or the other next No
vember.
1t cannot be gainsaid that the
American people are as prosperous
and well to do this year as they
ever have been. Do the American
people want change?
Does the great army of wage
workers, who are better fed, better
clothed and better housed now than
they have ever been, want a
change?
Do the American farmers. whose
products are in steady demand at
good prices at home and abroad,
want change?
Do the merchants and tradesmen
of this country, who are doing a
larger business in the aggregate
then ever before, want a change?
Do the manufacturers and en-
ployers of labor in mill and factory,
whose products are marketable now
at fair profit, want a change?
Do the professional men, whose
services command higher remunera-
tion than ever before, want a
change?
What would any of these classes
gain by a change.
This is the poser which neither
Mr.. Bryan nor any of his champi-
ons will be able to answer satisfac-
torily. They will talk about the
Declaration of Independence, about
the crime of 1873, about the beau
ties of free silver coinage, about the
disasterous gold standard, about
the menace of imperialism and
militiarism and about the repacity
of the trusts. But all these sub
jects are overshadoWed by the
question that dominates all men
who are constantly striving to bet
ter their condition, but do not will
fully and deliberately expose them
selves and their families to a relapse
to the distressing hard times eXper-
fenced before the advent Of Nc
Kinley and the ascendancy of
Republican politics that have re-
stored confidence, raised the
national credit and set the wheels
of industrial and commercial activ-
ity into motion.

EMERY AND HIS PLATFORM.

Franklin Citizen-Press.
On Thursday last Hon. Lewis
Emery, Jr., in a public speech at
Bradford, accepted the Democratic
nomination for Congress in this
district, but he particularly repu-
dated the Democratic platform and
presented one of his own in the
form of funny attempt to ''strad-
die both the Republican and Dem
ocratic platforms, with an endorse
ment of the "Middle-of-the- Road"
Populist party in favor of govern
mental ownership of railroads. Mr..
Emery also accepted the nomination
rendered him by a few alleged in
dependent Republicans who met in
Warren, some weeks since. as self
constituted delegates, and named
him as their candidate for Congress.
But it is now stated that since the
enunciation of his personal platform
i'll which thefundamental principles
Of the Republican platform were
practically eliminated, this element,
entirely disgusted with the evident
insincerity and trimming policy of
Mr.. Emery, will not give him their
votes and influence. 1t would be
strange, indeed, if any voter, claim
ing to be a Republican, would cast
his vote for Mr.. Emery standing
upon a platform of his own con-
struction which practically places
him in opposition to the admins
tration of President Mckinley on
some of the great issues now before
the country.
The "half-and-half " plan of Mr..
Emery to catch the Democratic
party vote is grotesque and anus
ing. In defining his views on the
question of expansion he practically
declares that "the Constitution fol-
lows the Flag" but Immediately,
attempts to qualify his position in
such a way as to soften the dose so
that it may not nauseate Republi-
cans whose votes he hopes to obtain.
On the financial issue he attempts
to dodge but in substance declares
that he is at present opposed to
any change in the "present cur
rency" unless Bryan should be
elected and in that case he would
favor the lG to ! proposition Of the
Democrats. If Bryan is not elected
his views on the currency question
are, so to speak, in the air. On
this proposition Mr.. Emery's dis
position to ''fool the people" is 50
very apparent that it will fail to
deceive any intelligent voter.

WHAT THE BOYS SAY
CongressionaIIy-Facts Worthy Con-
Sideration.

CongressionaiIy- Worthy Con-
sideration.
smcJnport Miner.
Mr.. Emery accepted the Inde
pendent Republican nomination for
Congress in the Bradford notifca-
tion meeting with a great flourish
of trumpets. What constitutes
this Independent Republican organ
ization? Who appointed the men
making up the delegation from Nc
Kean county in the conference at
Warren? The facts are that they
were self-appointed and represented
no organized body of electors. And
so it was in every county of the
district. The men who put Emery
in nomination at that conference
have been kickers in Republican
ranks for years past, with very few
exceptions. There was not dele
CATION there from any county but
what had representatives who had
bolted portions of the Republican
ticket in recent years. In fact
some OF them seldom vote any
portion Of it. Mr.. Emery will 80
on the ticket as the Democratic
candidate, where he properly be-
longs.
Kane Republican.
The Philadelphia Press says:
"The Bradford Star whose owner.
brother Of ex-Congressman C. W.
Stone, was candidate for the
Congressional nomination against
Sibley, now supports the whole
ticket, including Sibley. This is a
pretty generous return for the
slaughter of Cogressman Stone two
years ago." The Star is a Repub-
lican paper and that is why it will
support the Republican ticket.
Two years ago it supported Hon.
G. W. Stone for Congress, in this
district, 50 did the KANE REPUBLI-
CAN, the Smethport Miner, the Mt
Jewett News, the Port Allegany
Press, and all other papers in the
county with Republican leanings.
These papers, without exception,
now support Mr.. Sibley because he
is the Republican nominee. They
are not supporting Mr.. Emery be-
cause he is the Democratic nomi-
nee. And why should they support
him? Neither he nor any of what
is known as the emery gang have
ever helped Mr.. r. B. Stone in his
political aspirations. And what
did they do for Hon G. w. Stone
in his candidacy for Congress two
years ago? AS Mr.. Emery was in
the far west at that time perhaps
his oldest son, Delavan, can answer
that question. No truer Republi-
can than c. w. Stone lives on
Gods green earth, but he wasn't !
good enough for the "Lincoln'
Republicans Of Bradford. They |
69vn him the marble heart.
