TO Keep Hatreds Alive.

Why will men disiuherit their child
rem? No surer and more fruitful and
more lasting cause of family discord,
of ruin, hatred and every evil and ugly
passion can be named than such an
attempt by the grave to arrogate to
itself the power and authority of disci-
pline and retaliation over those re-
naming In life or to be born.
Animosities which last for gener-
ations, and steadily increase in inten-
sity as time goes on, are thus kindled.
Better let great estate be wasted
in the hands of the disipated and dis
solute than leave it to bring so dread
full curse, both to those who receive
it and to those to whom it is denied.
The arrogance which leads man to
assert in his will ability to continue
management of his property after he
is dead like that he exercised during
his life is contrary to the law of nature
and to public policy.
1t is vain assumption in a mortal.
A dead man is very dead.
With him should die also his ami
mosities and his prejudices. The best
legacy is legacy of justice, and the
worst a legacy of injustice. ce.-St. Louis

What is Man Coming To?

The other day the eyes Of Chicago
girl were wet with tears because of a
postponed wedding.
She was ready.
The man in the case wasn't.
He was in bed, played out, ex-
hausted-a wreck.
His excuse was that it was the prop
er thing for bachelor to mark his
entrance into the married state by
series OF farewell blowouts to his male
friends.
This modern idiot guzzled and
feasted until he was only few re-
moves from insanity.
Result-humiliation for good wo-
man.
There are some things about custom
that make one yearn for the good old
days, when mans wedding prepara-
tions consisted of greasing a pair OF
boots and procuring. new suit of
homespun.
1t was primitive, but it didn't make
necessary the services OF either under
taker or doctor.
Reform lies in the hands OF the wo-
men.
They can insist on good sense.
The man who acts the fool Just be-
fore marriage can be trusted to do it
some more before the bloom is off the
honeymoon.
The fellow who takes part in q free
for all drunk and gorging bee, simply
because he is going to unite his life to
that OF good woman, insults her by
his very act and should be shown the
door, even though the minister is
waiting and the guests assembled

Another Philippine Leak.

Miss B. M. Hull of New Haven,
Conn, who is teaching school in the
Philippines, has written an intering
letter, extracts from which are printed
in the NeW York World. In this letter
Miss Hull says, Somebody made some
money out of this educational move
ment. At the outset $136,000 was
spent for books, which were sent
around to probably half of the towns
in the archipelago. 1t would be no
exageration to cay that fully 100000
of the money was thrown away, for it
went for books that can't be used here
in decade. We have here histories
that no child in my school will be able
to understand in five years, geo.
graphies that dismiss the Philippine
islands in two sentences and arithme-
tics that no child will be able to work
with until he has had at least two
years training in English. This might
be forgiven ard attributed to the
ignorance of the needs when first send
ing out books, were it not that only
recently we have received another in
stallment equally valueless. Every
day or two something leaks out to
cultivate the suspicion that the half
has not been told to the American
people concerning the situation in the
Philippines. Somebody is evidently
making money out Of the entire Philip
pine movement. We know it is not
the government, and we know that the
American people generally are not
profiting by it; but 1t stands to reason
that policy so entirely at variance
with American principles, 80 expensive
to our public treasury and so wholly
unpromising as to practical benefits,
must be productive to some people,
else the elephant would not be on our
hands. The Consn1oner.

Organ, Dying, Grasps at Straws.

John E. Organ of the Salem Monitor
last week took exception to an article
which recently appeared in The 1ele-
phone. In his vulgar and uncultured
style be descends to personal abuse OF
the editor Of this paper. To me this
has been fight for principle and |
have never gone down to the degrad-
ing depths inhabited by this Individual.
When Organ says that the majority Of
the Democrats OF Dent, Phelps, and
Crawford counties are opposed to
Senator Farris he lies knowingly and
maliciously and does it for the purpose
of injuring the party which has re-
pudiated him and relegated him in
disgrace to oblivion.

KAsKAsKIA DECLARED DEAD.
The Post Ofice I'm Once Thriving
Illinois Town Has Been
Abolished.

Kaskaskia, at one time the capital
city of the state of Illinois, will soon
be wiped out of official existence by
an order of the postmaster general.
Only five families now live in the
once prosperous town, and the de-
partment has decided to abolish the
Kaskaska post office and accommo.

Time was, says a Washington spe-
cial to the Chicago Inter Ocean, when
Kaskaslda was q thriving town-a
mushroom growth of rough-hewn
dwelling and canvas shelters-a CEN
trail point in the then western wilder
ness, and a trading post known far
and wide. 1t was predicted then that
one day Kaskaskia would become the
metropolis of the west, and vie with
far eastern New York in size and
prominence, for the town was sit
uated on the Illinois river, navigable
then for the largest vessels, and was
located at point where the worn
trails from the south, the north, and
the east united and swept westward
in the broad path followed by the
pioneers in their journey toward the
setting sun.
Gen. Lafayette once honored Kas.
kaskia by q visit, and stopped be-
meath the roof of one of the few
houses still standing within the linn
it's of the town. He predicted great
future for the bustling place. But
other towns more desirably situated

still. The Illinois river took hand

ABOUT NOSEBLEED.
Taken in Connection with Other
ptOms 1t Is Rather
Significant.

Mos sebleeds are slight and
really t insignificant moment, and
are pr perly regarded as worthy of
only passing attention.
On the other hand, if occurring in
rapid sequence, or if the bleeding is
excessive, serious weakness or even
death may result, says Youths Conn
panion.
Nosbleed is commonly caused by
some injury like a blow or fall, or
again, by the finger nail. Picking
the nose often results in the forma-
tion of an elevated point just within
the nostril, which under continued
picking may develop into a spurlike
elevation-frequently the site of
bleeding.
Nosebleed is somewhat significant,
taken in connection with other symp-
toms, as initiatory of typhoid and
other fevers. Occasionally vessel
inside the nose becomes swollen or
varicosed, and it's rupture may cause
one or several attacks of very free
hemorrhage. The greatest number
of cases in which repeated attacks
of nosebleed occur are due to some
disorder of the nose itself, and are
frequently associated with symptoms
of obstruction to free breathing
through the organ, and thus may be
an indication of the necessity fol
local treatment of the nose.
Of the many household remedies
in vogue for the relief of nosebleed
one may observe that all are success
full in the ordinary cases, while in
rarely persistent cases, for example
in those known as "bleeders," none
seems thoroughly effective. Cold
seems to be one of the best, and is
applied in number of ways. Ice
may be held to the nose externally,
particles inside the nostrils.
OF course the ideal treatment for
nosebleed, and the only one invart-
ably effective, is to find the bleeding
point and apply pressure to it. This,
however, as it requires special ap-
paratus for illuminating the interior
of the nose, is only applicable by the
| physician.
Alum is also one of the best house
hold remedies for the control and
| checking of nosebleed. 1t is to be
used in solution of one or two heap
ing teaspoonfuls to a glassful of wa
ter, and may be snuffed into the
nose or applied in spray by an atom
izer or by other means. Peroxide
of hydrogen, which may be found in
nearly every household, is among the
really valuable remedies for check
ing nosebleed.
In case of serious or prolonged
hemorrhage from the nose the serv-
ices of a physician are required, to
whom should be left the direction of
| the systemic treatment.
In children, repeated bleeding at
the nose requires attention, since it
indicates need of systemic treat.

condition of continued congestion of

delicate lining of the interior of the

Local Paper.

The average man has not high
opinion OF the local newspaper. He
has less opinion of the man who
edits it. He thinks merchant counts
for twice as much, lawyer possibly
four times and as between the editor
and the banker, the comparison would
be odious. Still, how would the town
get along without a newspaper? What
would be thought Of it? Could it not
almost as easily spare a merchant, a
lawyer, or even, in some instances, a
banker?
Assuredly the local newspaper is
valuable as news medium. But this
is not all of its value. 1t is worth
something In the way of helping the
town; in booming public interest.
But it possesses also a distinct value
to every individual. What would real
estate be worth in 3 town which had
no newspapers. 1t is ever considered
how much the business and prosperity
OF individuals are benefited by articles
in the local newspapers. We know of
d case not thousand miles from JEFF
fersron City where man made $3,-
900 by an article in the local newspa-
per. But the editor never received a
cent for it; was not even thanked or
commended, and only heard of it Incl
dentally.
Then let it not be forgotten that
every newspaper is worth dollars to
every citizen. Why then should it not
receive greater reward for its work
and be elevated to level with other
great institutions in the community p

Col. Organ reasserts and repeats, as
il to strengthen, all the vile ISLANDERS
and malicious les he has published
about Senator Farris, and then says
the courts are open for libel suits.
This is but the feeble cry and dying
wall of political giant (P) who has
been stripped Of every former prestige
and power, and no has seen go down
forever the stai his political hope.
Fate is sometimes cruel. Twenty
years ago defeated by John w. Farris
for the State enate; sixteen years
ago defeated by Z. M. Mansfield; later
on defeated for Congress-; beaten for
the Senatorial nomination by Senator
Goodykoontz; four years ago defeated
in his efforts to carry Dent county for
Chew by Farris, "the corruptionist";
defeated in Dent county primary for
Senator on February s, 1902, by
"Johnnie Boodle"; and on May at
the Senatorial convention here with.
out even delegate to present his
name, and that too by the unanimous
nomination of thu man he ad DETAINED,
Hon. Frank H. Farris, is enough to
dethrone the real oa of a strong man,
much less an imbecile like Col. Organ.
Yes, the courts are open, but Senator
Farris has no desire to sue you,
Colonel. Not because he is afraid Of
any charge you have made, for they
are as false as Satan and as sulphurous
as hell, but for two reasons. He
knows, like many others, that you are
not accountable for what you say and
do; and secondly, If you were no sub
stantial damage could be shown as the
result of your ISLANDERS, for as he said
in his speech here, your articles and
their effect rem nded him OF the story
when the young lady was asked why
she allowed the young man to hug her.
Her reply was that it did not hurt her
and it seemed to do him q great deal
of good. So your SANDERS have not
damaged him, and they have evidently
saved you from "busting." And even
if they had damaged him he knows
that a judgment, even for costs, against
you could only be collected by selling
some wild land or taking slow note
and both OF these are worthless.
My sympathy goes out for you,
Colonel in your dire extremities and
! will esteem it a pleasure to keep
your political name fresh in the minds
of your countrymen by strewing this
ties over your grave in the Dent county
hills by proper reference to you, from
time to time, through the columns Of

G. w. Roberts of Elizabeth, W. Va.

case hopeless till he used Electric
Bitters and applied Bucklen's Arnica
Salve, which treatment completely
cured him. When Electric Bitters are

salve exerts its matchless healing

Army Station Off Watch Hill Exchang-

 Fishers Island, N. Y, Aug ,26.-Sev- eral hours after midnight last night the search light of the army station at Napatree Point, off Watch Hill, was exchanging signals with light at Fort Trumbilll, New London, and con yeying presumably some information to the army officers regarding prepara- tions for the war game between the army and navy which is to begin next Friday at midnight. Residents of this island have for weeks been deeply in terested.in the plans for the war game, and the presence of large camp of artillerymen, among whom the strict discipline of actual wan time is, al- ready. enforced, has of late. added to that interest. ,. From tl hill road near the center of the island it is possible to look down upon the military reserva- ton and observe from distance the hustle of activity within, but no near approach to the fort is possible as sen tinels promptly challenge all corners. The heavy guns on the island are ex- pected to boom frequently within the next ten days, and owners of summer hotels and other property within two or three miles of the fort are living in fearful anticipation of a time when their windows may be shattered and their buildings otherwise damaged by the concussions.

It is small stick of wood, some ten inches long. having space of about six inches in length hollowed out and roughly lined with brass. Therein the native print CTS set their type. The stick holds but line, because the native printers will set but line at a time The in- teresting trophy will be forwarded to Big Six" typographical union, in New York, of which MT.
