something OF q sensation In social and political
circles here. When Mr.. Davidson died, nearly
three years ago, Mrs. Dayidso nwas appointed
to succeed him two days after her husband 8

pointment Il WIS thought by Senator Me-

made, that she was being appointed to FIJI an
unexpired term. But when the appointment
was made 1T proved to be for four years. and
the many candidates who hoped to succeed her
found they would have to wait.
Last week Mrs. Davidson left to visit her
parents at Marshall, us has been her custom
for several years Tuesday the story gained

The Pleasures Of Youth.
WHAT WE MISS.

Do you remember the little things that
gave Us SO much pleasure when we were
young? With what zest did we sit down
to the table after our play was over and
eat the mush and milk our mother put
before us, which tasted like the nectar
of the gods. But as@we get older it
takes more to give us pleasure. sMush
and milk no longer tastes good to us,
and our digestion may be impaired. We
are told we canot eat this Or that because
1t is bad for the stomach. The fact is
that whatever our stomach Graves it
pretty nearly always digests. .What
is one mans meat is another mans
poison II there is something in the
way of meat, vegetables or fruit that
we long for, then our stomachs are
pretty sure to take care Of that article.
The reason is that the appearance of
] the 1onged-for article will cause the
saliva to pour forth from the glands,
the juices from the stomach are in
creased, and as consequence the
stomach does tie rest Through the
constant dinging into ouT. ears that GER
tain things are indigestible, we lose a
great deal In the pleasures Of the table
and our stomach is weakened by taking
many foods that are pre-digested or so
easily digested that the stomach is weak
ened from non-use, just the same as the
muscles Of our arms will become small
and weak if not used. The best advice
we can give to such a person Is to forget
what you are eating. Don't listen to
carpers or health-food cranks. Tone up
the stomach with DR.. Pierce's Golden
