Mother an Her wedding Gown.


Here's a p 'cture of my mother Ii
her wedding gown, All me
I wonder If there ever was fairer
bride than she.
Not a wrinkle on her forehead, moi
a line denoting care
Caa be traced upon her features:
What a wealth of wavy hair
Fell away from her fair temples
And the smile she wore that
Gay
Was the smile of one whose sor-
row still were lurking far
away.
I can fancy that my father, as he
gszed upon her. then,
Must have held his head up proud
ly, favored DER all other men;
And. beholding the sweet beauty
of the face depicted here,
I imagine l can see him, young ard
ardent, standing near
I have loved land I can see him as
he caught her to his breast,
When the strength of youth was In
him and his lips Q hers were
pressed.
The picture of my mother, taken on
her wedding day,
Shows the face of one whose sor-
rows were all lurking far away
And a fairer bride than she has
never charmed a man, ] trow-
Yet there's one whose smile Is
sweeter than her smile was
long ago
One whose brow has many burrows
proudly looks sometime on
me. Az
And I see the fondest, gladdest
smile a man may hope to see.

Democratic party OF this county has
issued call for County Conven-
ton to be he'd at Middlebourne on
Saturday, June the I4th. 1t Is
urged by the committee that every
Democrat who can do so make ar
rangements to be present at the
Convention. All Republicans who
desire to reform and cease from
their wicked ways of voting are al
so invited to attend. The conven-
ton will be a mass convention so
all who attend will have vote.
We have not heard of any candi.
dates for any of the Offices to be
voted for this fall. 1t has been sug-
gested by a number of prominent
party workers that David Hick-
man and J. G May6eld be endorsed
as candidates for clerks of the Cir
cult and County courts. 1t IS
agreed by all that these gentlemen
are both good clerks, that the office
Is not a political one, that both
clerks treat Democrats with the
same consideration they do Repub-
licans, that they are not offensive to
any Democrat and are efficient Of
fcers In every way. For these and
other reasons 1t Is urged that the
Democrats can do no better thing
than TO endorse them on the coun-
ty ticket. This Is matter for the
convention to decide when 1t meets

ton. He Is an able lawyer, a fluent
speaker, gentleman of fine appear

nominated will make an active and
earnest canvas, and If elected a rep

of.
Let there be a general turnout to
the convention the I4th. While
It's true the Republicans have big
majority In this county, It's essen
tial and for the good of the people
of the county for the Democrats to
nominate good men and make as
active a canvas as possible. Ar

ton the 14th and let's do the very

MILLIONS A YEAR
INCREDIBLE AMOUNT OF MONEY
LOSTBYTHE WORKING CLASSES.
An Interview With George v. Hammond,
of Tacoma, Wash, a Man Who
Talks from Experience.

The money lost annually by skilled
workmen of all occupations figures up
to millions of dollars and is becoming
greater every wear. This amount of
money represents mainly time lost and
the serious effect upon the social COM
fort of the workingmen and their fam
lilies is evident. Mr.. George V. Ham
mond, of Tacoma, Wash, said the
other day:
'sI have lost my share of time but I
am thankful to say that have not been
losing any of late"
"You don't look. as if you had lost
much through sickness"
"No, and don't feel so. But the
fact remains that was very sick
man. I took cold along in 1889 and
rheumatism settled in my arms and
shoulders l suffered for three years
and nothing relieved me until in April
| 1892, upon the recommendation of my
sister, began the use of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People and found
relief in the second box. l took five
boxes in all and now am entirely cured
and have had no occasion to use them
since"
Mr.. Hammond resides at No. 61O
N. Steele street, Tacoma, Wash, and
at the request of the reporter made affi-
davit to his above statement before
James H. Dege, a notary public, on
July 5, 1901.
There is a popular idea that rheuma.
tism is caused by exposure to cold and
that some localities are infected with
it more than others. Such conditions
frequently promote the development OF
the disease, but, from the fact that
rheumatism runs in certain families
it is shown to be hereditary and, con-
seouently disease of the blood.
Frequently an individual, in whose
family rheumatism has not occurred
develops the disease, and when a dag
nosis of the case is made, it is general
| ly found that the ailment is due to q
arrangement of the blood.
External applications may afford tenn
porary relief, but to cure the disease il
is necessary to treat it through the
blood.
DIR. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People go directly to the seat of the dis
| order, prulfy1ng and enrlchlng the
blood by eliminating poisonous .ele
ments and renewing health giving
forces. They are a positive specific
not only for rheumatism, but for such
diseases as locomotor ataxia, partia
paralysis, St. Vitus dance, sciatica, neu
ralgia, rheumatism, nervous headache
the after effects of grip or fevers, and o1
other acute diseases, palpitation of tht
heart, pale and sallow compilations ane
all forms of weakness, either in male o.
female. DIR. Williams Pink Pills fol

1t is said that stammererS rarely, II
ever, show any impeachment of speech
when speaking in whispers. On this
fact a new method of treatment has
been advocated, which is as follows:
For the first ten days speaking is pro-
hibited. This will allow rest to the
voice and constitutes the preliminary
stage of treatment During the next
ten days speaking is permissible in the
whispering voice. and. in the course of
the next fifteen days. the ordinary con-
versational tone may be gradually en-
ployed.

indian Territory Coal Deposits.

Some idea of the value of the coal
deposits in Indian territory can be
gained when it is known the average
thickness of the vein is four feet, which
will produce 1000 tons to the acre.
These lands are leased in lots of 900
acres each, which means that $500, 900
to 4, ,OOO, 900 tons can be produced by
those leasing the land. On this output
the lessees pay royalty of eight cents
a ton. The output during the last year
was 1,9oO,127, as against 1,4O0, AL

In Burmah in Ceylon, and, though

Pe-ru-na is known from the Atlantic
to the Pacific. Letters of congratula-

merits of Pe-ru-na as catarrh remedy
are pouring in from every state in the
union. DR.. Hartman is receiving hun
dreds of such letters daily. All classes
write these letters, from the highest to
the lowest.
The outdoor laborer, the indoor arti-
san, the clerk, the editor, the states

ru-na is the catarrh remedy Of the age.
The stage and rostrum, recognizing
catarrh as their greatest enemy, are

Any man who wishes perfect health
must be entirely free from catarrh.
Catarrh is well-nigh universal; almost
omnipresent. Pe-ru-na is the only
absolute safeguard known. A cold is
the beginning of catarrh. To prevent
colds, to cure colds, is to cheat tcatarrh
out of its victims. Pe-ru-na not only
cures catarrh, but prevents. Every
household should be supplied with this
great remedy for coughs, colds and SO
