A Surprised Physician.
A dying patient RECEIVERS through the in
terposition of humble German.

Chicago, Nov. Is.
Some weeks ago DR.. c., very reput-
able and widely-known physician, living on
c. Street, was called to attend very
complicated case of Rheumatism. Upon
arriving at the house he found a man about
forty years of age, lying in Frustrated and
serious condition, with his whole frame
dangerously affected with the painful dis
ease. He prescribed for the patient, but
the man continued to grow worse, and on
Sunday evening he was found to be in a
very alarming condition. The knees anG ell
BOWS and larger joints were greatly in
aamed and could not be moved. 1t was
only with extreme difficulty that the pa
tient could be turned in bed, with the aid
of three or four persons. The weight of
the clothing was so painful that means had
to be adopted to keep it from the patient S
body.
The doctor saw that his assistance would
be of no avail, and left the house, the mem
bers of the family following him to the
door, weeping Almost Immediately the
grief-stricken ones were addressed by an
despair of the family, and now asked them
to try his remedy, and accordingly brought
forth bottle Of st. Jacobs Oil. The poor
wife applied this remedy. The first apph-
cation eased the patient very much; after
a few hours they used it again, and, Won
der of wonders, the pain vanished entirely!
Every subsequent application improved the
patient. and in two days he was well and
out. When the doctor called a few days
after, he was indeed surprised.

a File in
the NOiSy&
Bv PHILIP MANILA.

TIN APPLICABLE stood with long
face while the train from the
county seat pulled into Fullerville.
1T was the day of the opening of
the Posey county fair and Fullerville
was all excitement. A big crowd
stood on the depot platform to see
the silver cornet band from the coun-
ty seat disembark. Also to watch
the detraining of Hon. Joshua
Griggscom, who was to be the orator
of the day, and other notables who
were expected on the train.
Jim AppIegate alone of all Fulleryille
took no interest in the arrival either
Of the silver cornet band or Hon.
Joshua GriggscOm. He only sat on a
cracker box in front of Bascom's
grocery store and chewed sullenly on
wisps of straw that he pulled now
and then from bale that lay by him.
Neither did the prospect of the
grand parade to the fair grounds
which was to take place in two hours
awaken any responsive thrills in his
bosom. In fact, the parade was what
was giving him most uneasiness.
For in his minds eye Jim Applegate
saw Sam Upper riding on bay
horse in the front of the procession.
Sam Topper with great red sash
around his waist, big blue badge,
with the words assistant marshal on
it, pinned on the left breast of his
coat.
"5he won't look at me all day
long" sighed Jim to himself. "She
won't see nobuddy but thet gul
burned Upper jest because he's as
sistant mershell with a red sash and
hedge"
Jim Applegate sat and chewed the
straws and the end of his own bitter
reflection. Jim would have repeated
the words of Gilbert's famous song,

Her platform is only the cradle.
Her speeches are funny and few

But all that is said
Is only vague little 600"
But how baby's rights are respected!
One nod of her dear, downy head,
Whenever she thinks she's neglected
And down to her feet we are led.
She lifts up her voice in a minute
Her protests are loud and are long!
Each household affair she is in it,
To see there is nothing goes wrong.
The right to twist limbs that are dimpled
In every eXtravagant way;
To maui and to tease
The cat at her ease
To crow and to creep all the day.
The right to love that is pureSt-
The right to mothers own Lowell
The right to a guide that is surest
To lead her wee footsteps above.
Her sweet little mouth she upraises,
Az pure as rose, dew impaired:
The right to our kisses and praises
oh, these are her rights Ger the world

Jim's attention was disturbed by
an earnest colloquy which was TAX
ing place in front of him between
the silver cornet band and the drum
major. They stood alone in front of
the grocery store, their red coats
and gold braid rejecting back the
bright rays of the morning sun and
almost striking blind the admiring
eyes of the half hundred residents of
Fullerville, who stood at a proper
distance gazing in open-mouthed
wonder at the respondent beings be-

HOW to Prevent Diseases.

Diseases are better prevented than
cured, truly says Mirror and Farmer,
Where lice are found cholera follows,
for they are caused by one and the
same thing-flth. The utmost cleanli-
ness is necessary in the houses and in
the grounds. The yards should be
often spaded up. If the houses and
coops are kept clean the fowls will free
themselves of vermin with the dust
bath. Whitewa sh is one of the most inn
portant articles in poultry manage
ment, and should be used freely. Light
sandy soils are best for poultry kept in
confinement, as the rains carry down
many impurities.

huttered her handkerchief at him, but
he did not see it. Julia Simmons,
standing next to her, pulled a rose
from her dress and threw it at Jim,
who caught it. He also caught look

stretched Jim lifeless in the road. Ev-
erybody was appIauding. Everybody
shouting, Bully fer Jim Applegate."
Jim was the hero OF the day.
"Why, Sue" said Sam Topper, in a
much aggrieved tone, as he glanced
down at his red sash and his blue
| badge. ''All tn girls in town are plum
crazy to walk aroun' with me, an here
you say you won't go down an hev
some sody water, and yet I'm a-wearin'

Sue looked across the street, where
stood Jim Apologize in his borrowed
regimentals, and with handkerchief
knotted coquettishly around his neck.
Julia Simmons was hanging tight on
one arm and another girl chung to the
other arm of the hero. He looked
across the street with a triumphal
glance at Sue. He saw her drop her
head and look sadly at the ground.
He hurriedly turned his fair charges
over to Lem Bowling, who was stand
ing conveniently near, and hastily ex-
cusing himself hurried across to Sue.

RULES FOR POPULARITY.
Eight Which Every Young Person OF
Either Sex Would Do Well
to Follow.

First-Remember that a good voice
is as essential to self-possession as
good ideas are essential to fluent Ian
guage The voice should be carefully
trained and developed. A full, clear,
flexible voice is one of the surest in
dications of good breeding, says the
New York World.
Second-Remember that one may be
witty without being popular, voluble
without being agreeable, a great talk
er and yet great bore.
Third-Be sincere. One who habitu-
ally sneers at everything not only rem
ders herself disagreeable to others but
will soon cease to find pleasure in life.
Fourth-Be frank. A frank, open
countenance and clear, CHEEKY laugh
is worth far more socially than pc
dantry in a stiff cravat."
Fifth-Be anna BILE. You may hide a
vindictive nature under a polite ex-
terror for a time, as eat masks its
sharp claws in velvet fur, but the least
provocation brings out one as quickly
as the other, and ill-natured people are
always disliked.
Sixth-Be sensible. Society never
lacks for fools, and what you consider
very entertaining nonsense may soon
be looked upon as very tiresome folly.
Seventh-Be cheerful. If you have
no great trouble in your mind you have
no right to render other people miser-
able by your long face and dolorous
tones. If you do you will generally be
avoided.
Eighth-Above all, be cordial and
sympathetic. True cordially and sym
pathy unite all the other qualities emu
merated and are certain to secure the
popularity SO dear to every one.

DEMOCRATIC TRuS m sAEDY

The Democratic party OF the State
of New York has declared for pub
lie ownership of the anthracite coal
fields. The proposition is that the ma
tional government shall institute con-
nation proceedings, take possession OF
the coal fields after compromising
their present pOsessOrs, and operate
the mines. The declaration of the
convention is as follows:
I'VE advocate the national owner
ship and operation of the anthracite
coal mines by the exercise OF the right
of eminent domain with just cOmpen-
ton to owners. Ninety per cent OF
the anthracite coal deposits Of the
world, being in the State OF Pennsyl-
yania, national ownership can but be
in the interest of the whole people.
Fuel, like water. being public
necessity, we advocate national owner
ship and control of the mines as
solution of the problem which will
relieve the country from the suffer
ings which follow differences between
labor and capital in the anthracite
mines. This course will insure peace
in the mining regions ard remove the
cause for differences leading not on
" to suffering, but. Outlines to blood
shed and insurrectiOn.

coal, not only in this State, but
throughout the whole country; insure
steady employment and adequate COM
pensation to labor: transfer children
from the mines to the schools; insure,
strengthen and preserve the stability
of the business interests and popular
institutions of our country. What,
ever differences of opinion may exist
over the propositions of public owner
ship, the propriety of that policy as
applied to anthracite coal mines must
be apparent to every citizen"
To understand the proposition, il
is necessary to remember that the
anthracite coal deposits are confined
to very small area The posessOr!
of these deposits have a monopoly tt
which every industry must pay tri
butte. When they choose to keep thu
men idle sooner than pay fair wage
to the men who dig the coal, the lif'
of the entire nation is disarranged.
To meet this unbearabel monopoly

Many of the Republicans who vo-
ted and worked for Bryan and silver
in 1896 have renewed their former
allegiance They satisfy themselves
by assuming that the old issue, in it's
broader sense is a dead one. and,
so far as it's minor aspects are con-
cerned, that Republicans in the sill
yer mining States are just as good
silver men as are their Democrat OPP
ponents. This befogs the minds Of
many and blinds them to the real
principle involved. They lost sight
OF the political fact that when they
give their support to the national
Republican party they are strength
ening the hands Of that party for its
continued warfare upon silver mining
or any other western interests.

ENACT ARBITRATION LAW

The State of Nevada is growing in
population and her industries are i'll
creasing. This being the case, it
might be a good idea for the Legis-
lature this winter to enact good
State Arbitration law for the ADJUST.
ment of differences between capital
and labor and thus prevent strikes
and lockouts in this growing AMI
rapidly progressing Commonwealth.
The State of Nevada should profit by
the experience of her eastern sis
tiers and when the time comes in
this State when arrogan. wealth will
tell labor there is nothing to arbi-
rate" there will be 4 State law that
will force arrogant wealth to submit
to arbitration. We submit this mere
ly as a suggestion TO the next Nevada
Legislature.-Ledger.
