They got into power by appeals to the

impeached. The people rose UP in their

A pike County Miracle.

Velpen, Ind, June 17.-Wm. Q. b.
Sullivan, a farmer OF this place. and
who is q brother OF ex-Representative
Sullivan of Pike and DUBOIS counties,
has had a remarkable experience re-
Gently.
Mr. Sullivan is 40 years OF age. n
has been a citizen OF Pike county for
80 years. For two years he has suf-
fered with kidney trouble and rheuma-
tism. His shoulders and side were
very sore and stiff, and his back was
so a he could hardly s~traighten up at
all. He had palpitation of the heart,
and a smothering which was very dis
tressing. He used three boxes OF Dodd's
Kidney Pills, and is as strong and well
as he ever was. He ~pronounces his cure
a miracle. MIR. Sullivan's statement OF
his case is startling.
"A month ago l was a cripple. To-
day / can do a hard days work every
day, and have not a single ache or
pain"
Dodd's Kidney Pills have done some
wonderful cures in Indiana, but none
more miraculous than in the case or
of Mr.. Sullivan.

A MacIean and n Campbell.

When Sir Archibald Camppeh was
governor of New Brunswick he CHANGED
to meet with an aged Highlander OF
the name OF Maciean. who had done
brave soldiery service for his country.
and had borne himself we'll in many a
fierce encounter. After his discharge
he had settled in the woods; but things
had not gone smoothly with him., and
his circumstances were quite straiten-
ed. Anxious to befriend him, his excel
lency invited him to make his home at
government house, where he could find
easy work to do in backing boots and
shoes and such like little things. The
old man was quite indignant, the hot
blood mounting to his cheeks, and,
drawing himself up to his full height,
he replied, with all the dignity or a
lord:
ma, ma. sir-na, ma. A Maciean new
or blackit a boot for a Campbell"
He preferred with independence on
the farm to ease as a mental In a rich

Education Has An AII-Round value.

A good college education also stands
for the investment OF power. The stu
dent invests power and power he
takes put; for education creates ana
increases power. Two forms 1t special
ly promotes, which modern life de-
mands: the power to think and the
power to will. The power to think Is
the greatest intellectual power. n
DOW er of knowledge is the power or the
which gathers up and holds
the harvests of many a field; the pow
er of thought Is the power of the mill
which grinds these harvests into Hour
for the use of man.. h power or
thought is ths power to see. TO foresee,
to reason. to judge, TO infer. 1t Is the
power which every study of the college
helps TO train. Language gives dls~
elimination: science, observation. an
alysis and synthesis-the taking apart
and the putting together elements or
thought: history, comprehension n
philosophy, self-repletion and self-dis-
covery. In some way-and the exact
way is still u~nknown-the man VINO
pursues these and the other studies OF
the college four years becomes a think
or. When he entered college he knew
little, and could think less; when he
leaves college, his knowledge is still
limited enough. but he has gained d
distinct power to think.-Success.

FIx Can't ne Drowned.

Whatever other fate might befall It,
naturalists agree that the common
house fly cannot be drowned, and many
ton thereto.
Included in such tests was the i'm
mersion of a fly in clear, cold water,
with a piece of cardboard to fit the
glass and floated so as to keep the in
sect beneath he surface.
So little did the fly trouble about
such an obstacle that 1t kept near the
bottom OF the glass, and there for a
quarter OF an hour ran about as freely
as I'm the fresh air, while ii at times
crawled across the under side of the
cardboard, as on the ceiling Of a room.
After being immersed for twenty
minutes the fy's movements were less
active, and at twenty-five minutes 1t
turned over upon it's side, apparently
dead. It"hung suspended in the water,
just under the pasteboard, which kept
it from rising to the surface, and there
1t remained for another twenty-five
minutes.
1t was then taken out and placed on a
sheet Of paper, looking, to all appear
anca dead. Its next fate was TO be
buried by being covered by about a
teaspoonful Of fine salt.
AT the end of fifteen minutes the sa-
line was shaken off, the fly having thus
been completely covered, either by wa
ter or by salt for sixty-five minutes.

thunder followed in rapid succession.
The wind howlad through the streets
and the elements were in an uproar for
nearly half an hour. The three ele-
ments of electricity, wind and rain
caused considerable damage in the
city, although not of a serious nature.
One man was slightly injured, houses
were ignited. trees were blown down or
broken, sidewalks were torn up, cellars
flooded and the street car service was
checked by a number OF cars being
disabled. Camp Northcott was all but
wrecked, and taere were many narrow
escapes from serious injury under the
falling tents. Gravest peril of all was
that which befell the crowds in bathing
at Harriet island, where hundreds were
snatched from a surging Of water Ike
