A POWERFUL sEARCHrIGHT.

The latest invention Is that OF a sig
nal light which-it Is claimed will PEN
citrate the heaviest fog for distance
Of half mile. II II is success many
accidents on both land sad sea can be
averted. Much interest Is being man
ifested In the discovery, the same as
in any other invention that Is intended
TO save life. This is the reason SO
many people hive been interested In
Hcstetter's Stomach Bitters during the
past 50 years. It is recognized as the
best health maker and blood purifier
in existence, and with good health and
blood disease cannot find foothold.
1t Is therefore specially adapted to
persons in ill-health and who suffer
from heartburn, indigestion, dyspep-
sia. constipation. or malaria, fever
and ague. Try It.

soft coal in Chicago has risen to s.
ton. as compared with 1915 on Sep

tributed to the denand caused by the
cold weather, which while not severe

DIR. T. J. SHUEY MAKES
IMPRESSION AT QUINCY

Says the Quincy Herald: Dr. Il. j.
Shuey, of Rock Island, preached to
two large audiences yesterday. not
withstanding the inclemency of the
weather. His morning sermon was
especially inspiring, and many ex-
pressed the opinion that it was the
best sermon they ever listened to.
His subject was. How to Develop
Spiritual Life He said, in part:
There is nothing so disastrous as
sentimentalism in the church. What
we want is the genuine coin and not
a counterfeit. To be spiritually
minded does not mean to neglect the
things of this world. nor to be COM
Pletely engrossed with the glories of
the world beyond. To be engrossed
with the things of this world is ma
terialism, while to think solely of spir-
itual things is fanaticism. To be spir-
itually-minded means that social and
business ties are to be made sacred.
Christianity is intended to develop
character. \ man who is not a Chris
tian may have some divine thoughts
and may make some progress in the
divine life. But the Christian gets rid
of his past sins and is placed in n
position where he can develop a Chris
tian character. We enter the king
dom of Jesus Christ for the purpose
of preparing for the advanced life.
One condition to a spiritual life is re-
joicing. 1t is disastrous to the spir-
itual growth TO grow gloomy over
things we cannot help. Forget The
things that are behind and press
forward. Then we need to live an
open life. Enmity must be eliminated
from our hearts. 1t is suicidal for us
to poison the spiritual life with en-
nifty and hatred. Let your frankness,
candor, honesty and sympathy be
known to all men. Then we must have
loftiness of soul. We must lift our
selves above the little, insignificant
difficulties of life and not allow them
to disturb us. Then we must be de-
vout. We must have communion with
God. When we seem friendless we
must make our wants known to God
and he will send us friend and will
bring peace into our lives. The peace
of God passeth all understanding.
This peace can be obtained through
Jesus Christ"
\ pretty incident occurred at the
close of the morning sermon when an
entire family, consisting OIL husband
wife, son and daughter, went forward
and united with the church. There
were two confessions at the evening
service. Many from other churches in
the city are becoming interested in
the meetings and speak in highest
praise of DR.. Shuey as an evangelist.

Dewey Again in His EIement.

Admiral George Dewey is once more
in his element-and upon it. He has
assumed command of the ships col
lected in Hampton Roads for the
West Indian war game" This is the
most powerful feet that ever hOisted
the stars and stripes; but the honor
and the responsibility are none too
great to match the fame, the prowess
and the ability of the hero of Manila
oay-the greatest and best beloved of
living sailors. The American people
were not overwhelmed to take last
summers "war game" seriously. The
public had confidence enough in the
men behind the guns, but there was
no admiration for or faith in the men
who maneuvered the ships. No such
potent means of insuring public re-
spect for last summers game could
have been taken as simply TO send
Dewey to sea again. Now everybody
knows that when the quiet, low-voic-
ed, neat little gray-haired man gets
his ships under way there will be
something doing" We are all glad
that the something" is only prac-
tice. but certain that it will he good
practice.

The Next Congress.

The journal clerk of the house has
just completed the unofficial list of
the congress elected two weeks ago,
and it shows after all districts have
been heard from that the 5Sth con-
gress will consist of 20S republicans
and rs democrats. Populists, silver
ties and representatives of the other
new parties viii disappear from the
house with the close of this congress,
and the few who are left will affiliate
with the other parties, and only re-
publicans and democrats will appear
in the new list. In this list there are
131 new names, 20 of which represent
the increased membership of the
house provided for under the appor-
tionment based on the last census
Leaving out of consideration the 90
additional members of the next house,
the net change from the present mem
bership is 102.
Representative j. III. Ketcham, of
New York, who will have served 80
years when the Fifty-eighth congress
expires. is the Nestor of the house.
His service has been interrupted, how
ever, and Representative Bingham, of
Pennsylvania, who holds the longest
record for uninterrupted service, is

Too Good to Be True.

Congressman Babcock denies that
he said there will be a special ses-
sion of congress next year to revise
the tariff. The report was too cir
cumstantiaI not to have had a sub
stantial basis. 1t is probably only
another example of politician
frightened at his words when they
get into print.
1t deserves to be said, however, as
tire New York World remarks. that
there has been nothing in Mr.. Roose-
velt's many speeches since he succeed
ed to the presidency to warrant the
belief that he favors touching our mo-
nopOly-sheltering and worse than war
tariff. The whole tenor of his talk
has been against it. His main idea
seems to be-and it is pretty certain
that this will be the dominant note
of his message-to attempt to side
track the tariff issue by appointing a
commission to inquire into it, and
to make a great ado over ''supervis-
ing" or controlling" trusts without
disturbing the law which permits
them to monopolize the home market
and fix prices to suit themselves. He
is more concerned in shielding lambs
in Wall street against the dangers
of over-capitalization' than in pro-
tecting the great body of the people
from paying monopoly prices for the
necesSaries of life.
1t will be a great boon to the dem
ocratic party in 1904 if the president
shall agree with Mark Hanna that

The poor but pious Standard Oil

only $45,OOO,OOO. or As per cent upon
its nominal capital, instead of $4s,-
100000, or IS per cent, as for the last
