DolIy,s Natural History.

When Dolly's papa asked her one
day what was worse than a giraffe
with a sore throat, after several mo-
ments' serious thought the youngster
replied warily that she did not ''ker-
zactly know
why" explained the parental, ''a
centipede with chilblains!"
That the humor sank deep into the
child's mind was amusingIy evil
denced week later. Taken to the
Natural History museum, Dolly stood
in awed wonder before the ostrich
exhibit, while her elder read aloud
the description appended.
Upon hearing that an ostrich pos
sessed six stomachs, quick as a flash,
Dolly interrupted eXcitedly:
"Now, L can tell papa what's worse
than a giraffe with a sore throat or
centipede with chilblains-it's an
ostrich with a stomach ache!"-N

In 1899 the Sangerlust celebrated it's

In distress, I was advised totry Perrna

A CATCH IN HIS BACK.

Palmer, Oregon, April 14th.-W. J..
UppendahI of this place has had a great
deal of trouble recently with his back.
Every time he went to do the least bit
of lifting he used to have what he
called "a catch" in his back. He says:
''It did not have to be very hard work
to give me such a severe pain that I
could not move.
Il suffered quite long time before
I heard of Dodd's Kidney Pills. I used
four boxes and now can work as hard
as any one and my back is as stout and
strong as it ever was.
My wife used some of the pills too
and she thinks there is nothing that
beats them.
81 can positively recommend Dodd's
Kidney Pills to anyone who has pain
in his back for I know they will
cure it,

Fictitious.

It is very seldom that we pay much at
tention to reports circulated IN reference
have always considered. that reports of this
nature were more or less fictitious and got
ten up for the purpose of creating demand
from the public. But the publication in
various papers of the wonderful results OBJ
tanned from using that famous remedy st.
Jacobs Oil, and from the fact that 1t IS
remedy for outward application only, led
US to make trials of it in our own family
One, a case of lumb ago of long standing
which had previously resisted every form
few applications of the Oil. Another was a
sprained ankle, with severe pain. Tins
was instantly relieved and permanently
cured in a few days by the use of st. Jacobs
Oil, while for severe toothache and neuralgia
it acted almost like magic, so quickly did the
pain depart after the Oil was applied. Our
own experience in using the Oil, as above
indicated, was so highly satisfactory that
we determined in the interest of the gen
eral public to make a thorough local inves-
tigatiOn among dealers and others who have
sold and used St. Jacobs Oil. Recognizing
Messrs. Taylor and Co. as headquarters for
all proprietary medicines, we called at their
Brlggate Store, and on making known the
object of our visit to the general Manager,
he stated that their three stores in Leeds
were selling more than a thousand bottles
of st. Jacobs Oil every week, and the trade
was constantly increasing-that it was the
most popular remedy sold and was highly
spoken of by everyone who used it. The
Manager said he had heard hundreds of
people say they had been permanently cured

Peruna a Preventive and Cure for Colds.
Mr. C. F. Given, Sussex, N. B., Vice
President of ''The Past-time Boating
Club writes:
Whenever the cold weather sets in
1 have for years past been very sure to
catch a severe cold which was hard to
throw off, and which would leave after
effects on my constitution the most of
the winter.
Last winter l was advised to try
Peruna, and within five days the cold
was broken up and in five days more l
was a well man. 1 recommended it to
several of my friends and all speak the
highest praise for it. There is nothing
like Peruna for catarrhal affIicfiOnS. 1t

me greatly, and three more effected a

Democratic state Campaign Opened
Last Night in Brooklyn Hill,
GrOut and Others Speak-PIatfOrm
Demands Public Ownership of
Anthracite Mines.
New York. Oct. 1.-THE Democratic
State Campaign was opened tonight
in Brooklyn. Speeches were made by
David r. Hill. Edward NJ. Grout.
George Raines and others. Among 9TH
er things Mr.. Hill declared that we are
confronted with gigantic combinations
of corporate capital monOpolizing the
production of the earth and the manu-
features of our artisans, arbitrarily nix
ing prices, making corners in the neces-
sites of life. and the extent and null
tiplicity of whose operations are sub
stantially unlimited by law and uncon-
trolled by statute, who corrupt legiS-
latures and congresses and dictate the
governmental policies of subserVient
governors and presidents.
On the plank of the state platform
demanding ownership of the anthracite
mines, Mr.. Hill said:
THE proposition is neither startling,
revolutionary, socialistic, nor paternal,
but is constitutional, necessary, expe-
dent. and above all, ii is right. 1t is
simply reasonable and necessary ex-
tension of the general policy of public
ownership already largely prevailing
in the municipalities of the country.
This proposition does not commit the
party to any other projects of public
ownership whatever their merits, IL
any there may be-"
Mr.. Hill said the coal question was
a national one. and added:
IF 1t is not, why did the President
himself recently intervene and sum-
mon private citizens to the White
House for conference and exercise his
official influence in regard to matter
over which ne had no jurisdiction? He
was not acting under any statute. He
had no authority for any legal inter-
ference on his part. He himself has
made 1t a national question, and he
and his party are now estopped from
otherwise regarding 1t.
1T is a national question because the
impending coal famine involves the
welfare of the whole people of the
United States, and such a famine
should be prevented from ever occur
ring again, which cannot be assured
under private ownership and control
1t is the province of wise statesman
ship to provide against just such emer-
gencies in the future. There is no
permanent remedy proposed by any,
body except that suggested in the
Democratic platform"

OBITUARY..


Mr.. ]. A. MERCER, formerly of Sa-
vannah, but for many years a resident
of Montreal. Canada. died in that city
last Sunday. The Montreal Star says
his dSath came quite suddenly. AL
though he had been ailing for some
days, and his general health had been
poor for quite a long time, his friends
were far from expecting such a sud
den close in his career. About o'clock
in the afternoon he was seized with
hemorrhage and passed away in a few
minutes.
Deceased was born in 1916, at st.
Athanase d'Iberville. He followed the
classical course Of the Jesuits, at their
college in this city He then took up
insurance as a business and continued
it many years, but during the regime
of his brother, the Hon. Honore Mer-
cier, as premier. he was confidential
man to the premier and his cabinet
He was then known as the Mayor of
Government Hall, and those who sought
the premier at his offices on st. Gabriel
street, seldom got to him without the
sanction of Joe" MERCER For some
years after the death of his brother,
Mr.. Joseph Mercier dabbled in various
matters. including a scheme for wash
ing out gold from the waters and shores
of some of the Yukon lakes.
1.-TWO years ago he was appointed
by the provincial government as an
inspector of benevolent societies
throughout the province and was al
most as we'll known throughout the
western section of the province as his
famous brother. He leaves a wife,
three daughters and two sons, one of
whom is Mr.. Joseph MERCER, advocate
of Montreal
Mr.. MERCER was we'll known in Sa-
vannah, having lived here prior to
1890. He was identified with the ship
ping interest of Savannah for many
years, and one time was in the grain
business on the Bay. Mr.. MERCER is
a brother-in-law of Messrs. Joe and
Emmett O'Connell of this city.
