In recent article a prominent
physician says, SIT is next to impossi-
BILE for a physician to get his patients
to carry out any prescribed course Of
hygiene or diet to the smallest extent:
he has but one resort left, namely, the
drug treatment" When medicines
are used for chronic constipation, the
most mild and gentle obtainable, such
as Chamberlain's Stomach and Liver
Tablets should be employed. Their
use is not followed by constipation as
they leave the bowels ina natural and

dren Are Near Starvation.

Boston, Oct. 29.-Jos. Taylor, whose
extradition for alleged enbezzlement In
South Africa. was sought by the Brit
ish government, was freed, Tuesday.

States marshal to liberate the prisoner

months has been pressing the case.

mitted in 1900. The British govern
ment claimed jurisdiction and contend
ed that under treaty between the

sultation with the state department

question of extradition between the

not between the United States and
England and that no extradition treaty
existed.

embassy at Washington received.
Tuesday, directed that all action in the
TAYLOR prosecution should be dropped
forwith. 1t is said that during Tay-
lor's three months in Jail on charges
which have been proved groundless.

THE PRESIDENCY.
An Article Written in 1900 by
Theodore Roosevelt
While Governor Of New York, Before
Vice Presidential Nomination.
He Then Knew and Now Fully Appre-
ciates responsibilities.

Boston, Oct. 29.-In an article written
for the Youths Companion. which will
be published, next week. Theodore
Roosevelt gave his ideas of the duties
and responsibilities Of the President of
the United States. President Roose-
welt wrote the article in 1900 while he
was governor of New York and pre-
vious to the Republican national con-
vention which nominated him for Vice
President. In it the President says:
The President of the United States
occupies a position or peculiar i'm
portance. In the whole world there is
no other ruler, certainly no other ruler
under free institution, whose power
compares with his. OF course, there is
the enormous personal factor of the in
cumbent himself to be considered en-
tirely apart from the power of the Of
flee itself. This is merely another way
of stating that in any office the per-
sonal equation is always of vital con-
sequence.
1.-The senators are the constitutional
advisors of the President. The secre-
taries who form the cabinet advise him
on matters of general policy when he
SD ucSiIcS w I'LL Tie oCIiutS, tic du~
vice and consultation are obligatory
under the constitution. The senators
have no right to dictate to the Presi-
dent who shall be appointed. but they
have an entire right to say who shall
not be appointed, for under the consti-
tuition this has been made their duty.
Although many men must share
with the President the responsibility,
there is upon him always heavy bur-
den of responsibility 1t is easy enough
to give a bad administration, but to
give a good administration demands
the most anxious thought, no less than
very unusual powers of mind.
There is every reason why the
President should be held to n sharp ac-
countability alike for what he does and
for what he leaves undone. But we in
jure ourselves and the nation if we fail
to treat with proper respect the man
who in the highest Office in our land is
striving to do his duty.
Altogether, there are few harder
tasks than that of filling well and ably
the office of President of the United
States. But if the men at the close of
his term is able to feel that he ha~
done his duty well, he has the satisfac-
ton of feeling that he has performed
one of the great worlds tasks and that
the mere performance is in itself the
greatest of all possible rewards"

has known years Of grim trial, when
the country was menaced by malice,
domestic or foreign levy, when the
hand of the Lord was heavy upon it in
drought or flood or pestilence: when
in bodily distress and anguish of soul,
it paid tie penalty of folly and a fro
ward heart. Nevertheless, decade by
decade. we have struggled onward and
upward: we now abundantly enjoy a
vor of the Most High we are striving
earnestly to achieve moral and spirit
ual uplifting The year that has just
closed has been of peace and of over
flowing plenty. Rarely has any people
en- joyed greater prosperity than we are
now enjoying. For this we render
heartfelt and solemn thanks to the
Oliver of good and we seek to praise
Him not by word only but by deeds. by
the way in which we do our duty to
ourselves and to our fellowmen.
Now. therefore. !. Theodore Roose-
welt, President of the United states,
do hereby designate as day of gen.
eral thanksgiving, Thursday, the 9th
of the coming November. and do recon-
mend that throughout the land the
people cease from their ordinary occu<
pations and in their several homes and
places of worship render thanks unto
Almighty God for the manifold bless
nigs of the past year.
I'm witness whereof I have hereunto
set my hand and caused the seal OF the
United States to be affixed.
