Have charm of their own when they are not weak and feeble, but hale and hearty, enjoying the sports and pleasures of youth though they cannot participate in them. The whole secret of sturdy old age Is this: Keep the stomach and organs of digestion and nutrition in per feet order. The young man who does not think of his stomach will be made to think of it as he grows old. It is the "weak :" stomach, incapable of supplying the adequate nutrition for the body, which causes the weakness and feeble ness of old age.
 Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery lures diseases of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition. It makes the "weak ? stomach strong, and so enables the body to be fully nouIished and strengthened by the food which is eaten.

MARTINELLI WILL REMAIN.
Monsignor Scalabraini Not to be Pa
 pal Delegate.

Washington, December S.-The report ed assignment of Monsiguor Scalabraini of Placenza, Italy. as the successor or Cardinal Martinelli, the papal dele gate in this country, is regarded as very improbable by officials of the dele gation in this city
 Monsiguor scalabraini is regarded as one of the ablest ecclesIastics of the church in Italy and for some years has been in charge of his present diocese in Placanza. He has become very much attached to his people, so much so, in fact, that when some time ago he was offered a position in the church which meant elevation to a cardinalate, he re- fused to leave his assignment. The ex- pectation here is that Cardinal Marti- nelli will remain until spring.

JOHNSTON DID NOT
 ASK FOR OFFICE
FORMER GOVERNOR DECLARES
 VISIT TO WASHINGTON WAS
 ON PURELY PRIVATE MATTER. ASKED NOTHING FOR FRIENDS.

Former Governor Joseph F. Johnston returned from Washington Saturday night and brought with him various polit- ical rumors as to his presence in the cap- ital city.
 My visit was purely of a personal na- ture,' said the former Governor yester- day afternoon, "and I went to Washing ton to attend to strictly private busi- ness"
 'Did you call on the President" was asked,
 Certainly. I went to the White House to pay my respects to the President and he treated me very cordially. He Invited me to lunch with him and I accepted the invitation.
 'I told the President" continued Cap tain Johnston, "I had come to ask noth- ing for myself or any of my friends. The report that I went to Washington on a political mission is unfounded as I went on private business as I have just stated"
 Since former Governor Johnston ar- rived in Washington rumors galore have been telegraphed over the country by special correspondents, some saying Cap tain Johnston had gone to see the Pres ident to consult him about recognizing what is called the Shelley ohnston movement in Alabama and 1t was inti- mated that he desired to control Federal patronage in this state.
 Captain Johnston denied all of these reports positively and insisted that his business was of a private nature. Some recent stories sent out by correspondents, however, assert that Captain Johnston has in contemplation of a movement in loh al fo hn ct ta1 f,xy Senator McLaurin in South Carolina.
 Gen, Charles M. Shelley, whose name Is coupled with that of the ex-Governor, denies any knowledge of the purpose of the latter's visit and says he did not know Captain Johnston had left Birming- ham until so informed by son of the ex-Governor.

Or. A. ]. Dickinson Breaches Eloquent Sermon at First
 Baptist Church
"ELIEZER THE OAMAF ENE"
Sketches ldyI of Woolng of Rebekah by Ellezer the Friend of Isaac. Proposes a Remedy for
 Domestic Troubles.

Dr. A. J. Dickinson filled the pulpit at
 the First Baptist church yesterday at
 Il o'clock services. He preached an
 eloquent sermon on ''Eliezer, the Dam asene" The text was from Gepesis "A
 27: Being in the way the Lord di1 lead me" A rlea for a return to old tune sacred regard fer lcve affairs was made as tho remedy for domestic trou- ble and divorce suits.
 The preacher pointed out some of the reculiar beauties of the Hebrew Idyl as brought cut in this chapter and 'n the Idylic books of Ruth, Ester and the apocryphal book of Tobit. Then he sketched the idyl of the wooing of Re- bekah by Eliezer. the paranymph of Isaac. The scene in Abraham's tent, where the faithful servant Is sworn and sent on his mission; then the scene at the well before the city of Nohor; the scene in the house of Bethnel, and the return to Canaan where each described so that the characteristics of Eliezer, Rebekah and Laban each came out in detail.
 Then he turned to Eliezer as "the lead of the Lord"
 Showing how his Icing lead cn his mission was due to his entrusting him self to the Lord and devoutly reoogniz- ing his leadership step by step. To his getting himself under way. Here the preacher showed plairly the absurdity Of seeking leadership from God when we were not in the way and in Gods way. Then he showed how God lead him through his own stanctified common sense.
 God Gives Us Common Sense.
 "We overlook the fact that God gave us common sense to be His angel to go before us. So consecrated sense Is the gift and also the instrument of God in leadership" In applying the Scripture lessons to the different missions of life
 he said this about getting married: "One of the most important missions | of human beings is that of instituting a home and seeking helpmate therein. | Nowhere else does he need so much di-
 vine guidance as in a problem like this | which faced the faithful Eliezer. Here
 he seeks to invoke Gods guidance, get | in the way, use his sanctified common sense. In this age of divorces and do- | mestic infelicity we need this preached into our ears. Iris vain for sacred con- clave of ecclesiastics to inveigh against divorces In marriages that never ought to have been made. The remedy lies in a return to that sacred regard for love affairs which the Bible and especially the Song of Songs teaches.
 More Conservation Needed. we need more consecration in court ing affairs. There we need to invoke God to take the lead, as did Eliezer of ole. l. therefore, plead with these young people who will ere long enter upon this sacred mission, which will determine their happiness or woe during half of their lives, to invoke God to consecrate their common sense that he may lead them in the way of happiness and holi- ness. Marriage must not only be legal ized but Christianized if 1t is to be what should be-"
 There were many wise and humorous points in the discourse, which was heard with rapt attention by large audience

LABOR MEN DO NOT
 REST ON SUNDAY Day Spent in TranSacting Com
 mittee Business WILL ELECT OLD OFFICERS Mahon Busy In Assisting the Local Labor Leaders Who Are Di-
 rectng the Street Car
 Strike.

Scranton Pa., December S.-Notwith-
 standing that this was Sunday many of the delegates to the convention of the American Federation of Labor did not cease their activity, the day being given up to the transaction of committee busi- ness. The executive council went into session early and did not adjourn until long after noon.
 One of the busiest men among the dele gates was ". D. Mahon of Detroit, Pres ident of the Amalgamated Association of Street Railway Employees. He was in frequent conference during the morning with local labor leaders, who are direct ing the street car strike in this city. It is probable that MT. Mahon and President Mitchell of the Mine Workers will be delegated by the executive coun- cil to take charge of the strike. Later in the day a delegation from the allied building trades of Philadelphia arrived here and had an interview with MT. Mahon on the street railway situation in that city, where a strike is said to be among the probabilities of the near fu- tllre

Wants Piano Makers.

What is looked upon by many of the delegateS as the most vital question that will come before the convention is that of trade autonomy. The matter of trade Jurisdiction Is also expected to cause a long discussion on the part of the wood workers, who make the point that the piano makers are woodworkers ana should come into the union instead of having an independent organization.
 At this time it seems reasonably cer- tain that all of the present officers of the federation will be reelected.
 Among the cities that have entered the campaign for the next place of meeting are Atlanta, Buffalo, Los Angeles, Mill waukee, New Orleans and San Francis CO., Portland, Ore, wants the convention in 1905 the year the exposition is to be held in that city.
