While the Presidents Life Hangs in the
balance Remarks Col. Bryan.
Lincoln, Sept. 9.-Colonel Bryan
in his COmmOner, under the caption
of "The Nation MOurns" discusses
the assault on the President. He
says in part:
"Beneath the partisanship of the
individual lies the patriotism of the
citizen, sometimes dormant, it is
true, but always active in hours of
peril or misfortune. While the
Presidents life hangs in the balance
there are no party lines. The grief
of personal friends and close politi-
cal associates may be more poignant,
but the sympathy is not more sim
cere than that extended by political
opponents.
"There is no place for anarchy in
the United States. There is no
room here for those who commit,
counsel or condone murder, no mat
ter what political excuse may be
urged in its defence. The line be-
tween peaceful agitation and vic.
lence is clear and distinct. We
have freedom of speech and freedom
of the press in this country, and
they are essential to the maintenance
Of our liberty. If any one desires
to criticise the methods of govern
ment or the conduct of an official
he has perfert right to do so, but
his appeal must be to the intelli
gence and patriotism of his fellow
citizens, and not to improve socia
or political conditions by the shed
ding of blood.

All Doctors have tried TO cure Ca.

bleed. The powerful acids used in the
inhalers have entirely eaten away the
same membranes that their makers
have aimed to cure. while pastes and
ointments cannot reach the disease.

It wasn't a Missouri editor, but a

The summer is the time to put away
eggs Tor winter sales. Richard Graham
Of the Ontario agricultural college has
been trying different methods Of pre-.
serving them, and prefers water glass.
Water glass is known to chemists as
sodium silicate. 1t can be obtained
from druggists, who, il they do not
have it 10 stock, can obtain it from
their wholesale houses. 1t sells at from
seventy. five cent to n dollar a gal
Ion. Mix one gallon with five gallons
of boiled water, which is as strong as it
can be used, although it a be mixed
with ten gallons. For the strongest
solution the eggs must be perfectly
fresh. There is a drawback to the
water glass method; the shell easily
bursts in boiling water. This however
may be prevented by piercing the shell
| with a needle. In most packed eggs
the yolk, sooner or later, begins 10 set.
tie on one side and the egg begins TO
depreciatc. This does not happen when
water glass is used, and the eggs retain
a surprising freshness. In one test il
was found that ten per cent solution Of
water glass preserved the eggs 50 ef-
feclual!y Tia, at the end of three and II
half months eggs that were packed On
August 1t, appeared perfectly fresh.
a gallon Of water glass will preserve
fifty dozen eggs.

say it was, but a trip a few miles in the
country in any direction is all that Is
necessary to dispel this idea. A person
can go one mile west Of this town and
by standing up in n buggy or wagon
you can count just AL ,O92 shocks Of
wheat. How many do you suppose
could be counted il a person was up in
a balloon about half a mile. After
carefully figuring the proporiionate
