Divorce in Jackson County.


During The past Two yeais 6oo
divorce cases have been filed IN the
Circuit Court at independence, Mis-.
souri,. Fully as many more have been
filed during the same period IN the
Circuit Court in Kansas CRY.
The divorce suits filed in I%ndepen-
dence nearly exceed the marriage
licenses, and in some monihs the excess
Of divorce applications over those Of
marriage applications is alarming.
Recently fifty-iour divorce cases we're
taken under consideration, and for the
same length of time only eighteen mar
riage licenses were granted. Three
fourtbs of the applicants are women.
Charges of iDfidellty are few in COM
parison with the charge Of abandon
ment. During the past four years
divorce applications have increased SS
per cent.

Globe. Boston, Mass.

The Post Clerk scheme is q novel
one, but certainly it has the merit OF
utility, for the present postal system Of
money orders is not only clumsy but
expensive.
The idea is simplicity itself. 1t is to
have the government bills so printed
that there are blank spaces which
could be filed out like a check. When
not filled they pass current as money
just as they do now, but when filed out
to pay a small bill, say at some distant
point, they must be endorsed by the re-
%ceiver, and cashed at the postolfice.
After that the bill is worthless as cur
rency. The only expense would be q
two cent postage stamp for government
fee on the face of the bill when It was
converted into a check.
1t is calculated that this system woult
prevent a great deal of the present IN,
convenience which people iud WHIT
wish to pay a small bill, say a subscrlp
ton for a paper or a magazine, whel
such bill has TO be sent by mail, and o
course everybody knows there is a Ger
tam risk in sending ordinary none,
through the mails.
The idea embraced in the bill whic
went before Congress last year me
with great favor, not only among con
gress and inauciers, but was also favor
ably commented upon by the press
/, the country. The practicabllity an
the simplicity of the scheme appeale
to everybody.

Lawrence Bash vas recently buried
New Salem Church, Boone County,
Mo In 1851 MIR, Bash left his home
in Boone County and went West
in search of his fortune among
the gold fields of the West. He
located in Virginia City, New, and
went into the livery business. Among
his first acquaintance was the penniless
young Irish prospector, Mackay. The
two were soon good friends and we're
always together.
One day in the course of a CONVERSE
ton, Mackay remarked that If he had
$40, 900 he could develop a claim that
some time would yield large returns

Lost chances.

The fact mai Thomas b. Reed was
offered the nominations for VIC presi-
dent on the ticket with William MeKin-
lev IN 1896 and declined It, reminds
the New York World that there are
four instances in our history III which
very eminent men missed the presi-
dency by refusing the second place
their party's national ticket. Daniel
Webster refused to run with William
Henry Harrison and again with Zach
airy Taylor. His not immodest estimate
of his own merits would not permit
him to be tail of any lesser mans kite.
Hence we had Presidents Tyler and
Fillmore when we might have had Presi-
dent Webster. Benjamin F. Butler, of
assachusetts, disdained to run with
Lincoln in 1864, and that gave us
President johnson, while Butler lived
to spend a considerable fortune IN VAIN
efforts to reach the position which, not
knowing it, ne spurned. Roscoe Conk-
ling was given an unrestricted liberty
to name the vice-presiden,ial candidate
by he Garfield leaders in 1880, and III
stead of taking it himself bestowed it on
Chester Alan Arthur, who thus became
president. President Roosevelt, it is IN
teresting 20 remember, would not be il
the white house today If he could have
had his own way at the Philadelphia
convention in 1900, where he protested
to Tue last moment against being ''shelv
ed in the vice-presidency."

WEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed Aourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds its
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes i'm
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you CAM
deceive yourself any longer
Begin with the first though
to take SCOTS Emulsion. J
it isn't really 81
much the better; you will sool
forget it and be better for thu
treatment. If it is consump
ton you cant expect to B.
cured at once, but if you vii
begin in time and will b
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh ali
rest all you can, eat all 20
can, that's the treatment an
that's the best treatment.
