Don't be satisfied with temporary re-
lief from indigestion. Kodol Dyspepsia
Cure permanently and completely re-
moves thi complaint. 1t relieves per-
manently because it allows the tired
stomach perfect rest. Dieting won t
rest the stomach. Nature receives
supplies from the food we eat.
The sensible way to help the stom-

is LONG LIFE TOBE DESIRED?
The Sad Ending of a Once Dis
tinguished Man.

The advantages CT prolonged life are
not always apparent. Certainly life
must have lost most of its attraction
for man who has once tasted the
sweets of influence and power and finds
himself in his declining years drift
ing, in poverty and obscurity, to-
wards an unknown grave.
Just day or two ago there died un"'
der circumstances such as these
man who had sat in congress with
Abraham Lincoln and the other giants
of those days, who had been governor
of the state of New jersey before the
war, and afterwards governor of the
territory of Washington, and who had
been the holder of other Offices of trust
and distinction. He was the author of
the bill that created the life saving
service of the United States.
The man was William a. Newell.
He died in a small bedroom in a cheap
boarding house, and only through the
casual acquaintance of the adjutant
general of New Jersey with the facts
and that officials prompt aud com
mendable action was his body rescued
from complete neglect and final inter-
ment in the Potter field.
Fame Gin most instances is but a
transient visitor. The man to whom
it comes grasps it but for year or
two and then, swiftly, silently sees it
slipping away. Power lasts for day,
wealth is tleeting, popularity is as
eyanescent, almost, as the wind. He
who has them all cannot be certain
they will last out his life. Indeed, the
probabilities are that before he has
reached the allotted. three score and
ten of the psalmist these things thai
have made life rich in promise anC
fruition will have reached their full
maturity and then have crumbled into
dust.
What does life hold for him then
Everything that has made it beautiful
has passed from him and in old age
there is nothing far him to live upor
save the memories of st.attainments
He has been power in the land, anC
he sees the veriest tyro in his profes
sion enjoying wider clientage thar
he can claim: he has had wealth, ant
grim proyerty stares him in the face
he has been the center Of circle o
admiring friends, and now there is NJ
one to care for his wants, to solace hi
declining years, or to mourn his ulti
mate departure. Life can scarce b.
sweet to him from whom all that mad
it sweet has been taken away.

A man talks about owning his bust
ness. But, as a matter of fact, his
business owns him. His whole life is
regulated by the demands of the bus
mess. The time at which he rises,
his breakfast hour. the time given to
meals. are all determined by business
obligations. He rushes through lunch
because he cant spare the time from
business" 20 eat leisurelY. He won't
I take rest because he is needed at the
store or office. He is in fact an abso-
lutte slave to business. The results
which follow this slavery are to be
seen on every hand. Men dyspeptic,
irritable, nervous, with drawn faces
and hollow eyes, sit at the desk or
stand behind the counter until they
collapse in a fit of sickness. or taken
away by heart failure. Those who
cannot escape the eXactiOns OF bust
ness will find frier.d in DR.. Pierce's

been given for change, except that
a few small-bore politicians who are
too cowardly to strike direct want to
hit their own governor in the back.
There is nothing more despicable in
politics than the conduct of the BUSH
whacker who always seeks a cowardly
way to do things. The Springfield
Register says is not at all prob
able that majority of the members
of the house will concur in this piece of
Legislation, which would never have
been sanctioned by majority of the
committee, and which would never
have been placed on the calendar if
the speakers chair was filed by a
man who would regard the rules of
the house or pay attention to COM
mon fairness.
The indirect way in which the
Shermanites are fighting Gov. Yates
is exciting the contempt of decent re-
publicans over the state. All people
like an open fighter.

THERE seems to be general concur
renee in the opinion that the success
of Tom l.. johnson in his candidacy
for mayor of Cleveland gives him
prominence as candidate for United
States senator in the event of the cleo
ton Of democratic majority to the
Ohio legislature. But he cannot get
the senatorship without a contest for
the position. Like Mr.. johnson, Mr.
Mclean, of Cincinnati, is in Ohio
politics, and is equally original and
daring in his methods. Between
these two experts the battle for the
prize of the senatorship would be
spectacular.

THE RESULTS THUS FAR.

The net results to date of our boast
ed new "world policy" as summar-
lied by the New York World, are not,
it must be confessed. particularly en-
couraging. From Porto Rico comes
a petition signed by 5000 of our new
wards begging for work or other re-
lief from the misery and starvation
that are killing them. Since Novem-
Der nearly 5000 Porto Ricans have
emigrated to the Pacific islands.
They were at least able to live at home
under Spanish rule. AS further in
dication of the failure of our unin-
structed and too-confident attempt to
govern the island the news comes that
''nearly every town in Porto Rico has
an empty treasury"
In the Philippines the latest army
reports admit the killingof 10000 of
the natives, while our own losses have
been above 5000. We are having
some success in rebuying the inhab-
itants-the bill of sale from Spain not
having been recognized by them.
But how long they will stay bought
appears to be a question of doubt
among those who know them best,
for Gen. Bates, who has just returned
from an important command in the
Philippines, tells the president that
''we shall need 10000 soldiers there
for some time to come.''
In Cuba, as result of substituting
dictation for negotiation, and creating
suspicion when we might easily have
inspired trust, we are facing a
disagreement that threatens to pro-
long military occupation, with all the
cost and danger which this implies.
1t is of course true, as we have
heard from so many orators and ed
itors, that the American people can
do anything that any other nation can
do, only great deal better. But
isn't the demonstration a little slow
in coming, so far as our capacity for
governing others is concerned?
