The general Republican attitude Of ex-
pectancy is i'll exact accord with the
Union Republican POSITIONS in accord
with the whole history of that organiza-
ton. The present favorable conditions
and opportunities of Republican politics
in this State have resulted from the
persistent and unwarering pursuit of
the idea of Republican unity in opposi-
ton to the Democrats by the Union Re.
publicans. 1t was the men now known
as Union Republicans who won the par
tal Republican victory in 1888; who won
the complete victory that was wasted
because OF factional division in 1895;
who won again in 1896 when the Republ-
cans were cheated out Of their victory,
by Democratic outrage and authority;
who won again in 1898, and still
again in 1900. 1t is undeniable that
from 1895 until 1901 the Union Re
pubicans have been the ardent and
indefatigable advocates Of and workers
for Republican unity upon u perfectly
fair and just basis. 1t was their con
cessions to the boilers that carried the
State for the Republican National ticket
in 1896. Ii was their concessions to thu
boters in 1898 that carried the State fol
the Republican congressional ticket ant
elected Republican legislature. 1t was
the agreement reached upon propositions
for party unity, made by the Union Re
publicans, that enabled the Republicans
to elect their National ticket and tn,
State and county tickets in 1900. With
out these incessant labors, without tles

The Absence Of 1t.

If there is any truth the saying
chat happiness is the absence Of all.
pain, mental and physical, the enjoyment
Of it can only be found in heaven. But
so far as the physical is concerned, it
is within easy reach; ut least measur-
ably so, as far as cure will 60. The
sum of human, misery in this line is
made up of greater or less degrees Of
physical suffering. The minor aches and
pains which afiict mankind are easy to
reach and as easily cured. There are
non in the whole category, which, IL
taken in time, cannot be cured. They
must in some form aflict the nerves,
the bones, the muscles and joints Of the
human body. They are all more or less
hurtful and wasteful to the system. st.
Jacobs Oil is made to. cure them, to
search out hidden pain spots, and to
cure promptly in u true remedial and
lasting way. Very, very many have not
known happiness for years till they
used it, and very many are putting of
cure and happiness because they don't
use it.

Color Ye,r own Pictures.

Some of our amateur photographers
may be interested in learning an easy
Way of coloring Il photograph nicely
without having first taken lessons in
drawing Or painting. This is the meth
cd: After you have printed your photo
graph, and before you mount it on card
board, hold it against the window,
placing the picture side toward the
glass; then sketch clearly on the back
of the picture the outlines of the parts
to be colored. When this is completed
place the picture side of the photograph
against a blotter and apply the desired
colors to the back of the picture, keep
ing within the sketched outlines. Then
prepare a mixture consisting of ten
parts benZine and one part vaseline,
and pour this yer the photograph. rub
bling it thoroughly into the paper with
the finger. Do this on the face and
back Of the picture. After the picture
has become transparent through this
process let it stand for an hour or two,
then dry it with a cloth and mount it
on cardboard. The color will show
clearly.

There We're few more devoted attach

Lord Beaconsfield and his wife. Lady
Beaconstield usually drove with his
lordship to the house, and was always

his and what speeches had told for or
against his party. Once when setting
him down at Westminster, as he was
about to make some very important
speech on Il burning question of the
day, her finger caught in the carriage
door when the servant slammed it. No
cry escaped her lips and the kind face
smiled back Mt Disraeli unru1fled by q

Fouyht for the Fiau.

"Uncle' Jerry Moore, an old colored
man, who says that he is about IS
years old, and who lives at 1905 Vim
cent street, has an interesting relic of
the Civil War in the shape of an old
tattered flag, which he got ut the siege
of Fort Wayne, Norris Island, Charles
ton harbor, about one mile from Fort
Sumter, says the Baltimore American.
The old flag has numerous bulletholes
in it, but it is in a fair state of preser-
walton. ''Uncle" Jerry has attached a
pole to it and hangs it out of the Win
dow every Fourth of July.
"Uncle" Jerry was born on Eutaw

Jerry was kidnapped, he said. by a
man who was going to send him to

pare in sleep-producing power with
sunshine. The worst soporiic is laud.
anum and the best is sunshine. There.
fore, it is easily understood that poor
sleepers should pass as many hours in
the sunshine as possible. Many women
are martyrs and do not know it. They
shut the sunshine out of their houses,
they wear wells, they carry sunshadcs.
they do all that is possible to keep off
the subtlest and yet most potent influ-
ence which is intended to give then
strength and beauty and ch~eerfulness.
