Too Great a Risk.

In almost every neighborhood
someone has died from an attack of
collie or cholera morbus, often be-
fore medicine could be procured or
physician summoned. A reliable
remedy for these diseases should be
kept at hand. The risk is too great
for anyone to take. Chamberlain's
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rene
dy has undoubtedly saved the lives
of more people and relieved more
pain and suffering than any other
medicine in use. 1t can always be
depended upon. For sale by Cox q

John G. Shield, millior aire anC

500 young men in his employ and
gave them these keys to success:
s'The man who is not polite is 80
times out of 100 failure.
"IIigh moral character is the
best commodity business man can
keep in stock.
"You can't be good salesman

"You can't aim too high and be
sure and pull trigger before you get
wobbly.
breathe pure air. Associate
with good companions. Drink
plenty of pure water and nothing
that will intoxicate. Take plenty
of wholesome exercise. By little
training you will have an outfit
which will take you far on the road
to success in business.
"Learn how TO save. Give the
money you are spending for tobacco
and drinks to your wife to put in
the savings bank. Don't ever in
vest your savings for the sake of
the income. It's very dangerous.
"The big head is the worst dis
ease that ever attacked young

"The fellow who only thinks or
diuarily and lives ordinarily and
doesn't much care will never go
''Don't lose your temper. Let
the other fellow lose his.

found themselves really in need of
earning their daily bread have been
those who have made the success

GEN. MILES is "mentioned" by
eastern democrats as an available
candidate for the presidential nomi-
nation. Possibly he will be accepta-
BILE to our eastern friends, but to
Southern democrats never. Miles
is a military man, if anything, and
not a statesman. 1t will be re-
membered that it was Miles who
ordered a blacksmith to rivet irons
upon the limbs of Jefferson Davis
while a prisoner at Fortress Monroe,
an act altogether unnecessary and
brutal. There is considerable diff
ference of opinion as to who is the
proper man for democracy to put
forward, and many have been spoken
of, but we believe that Miles pos
sesses less qualifications for the
place than any yet suggested--even
Bryan not excepted.

Spring Ailments.

There is an aching and tired feel
ing; the liver. bowels, and kidneys
become sluggish and inactive, the
digestion impaired. with little or no
appetite, no ambition for anything,
and feeling that the whole body
and mind needs toning up. The
trouble is, that during winter, there
has been an accumulation of waste
matter in the system. Herbine will
remove it, secure to the secretions
right exit, and by its tonic effect,
fully restore the wasted tissues and
give strength in place of weakness.

An Almost Forgotten Tragedy.

Knoxville, Tenn, May 90. =
Some very interesting facts have
developed in connection with the
recent celebration of the first ami
versary of the terrible disaster in
the Fraterville mine nearCoalCreek.
On the morning of May 10, 1902,
only few minutes after 167 men
and boys had entered the mouth of
the mine to go TO work an explosion
occurred which entombed the entire
number. Of that vast number not
soul lived to see the light of day
again. Dependent upon the persons
who met death were: One grand
mother, aged seventy years; one
mother-in-law, one aunt, ten
mothers, ninety-nfne wives, 142
daughters, lO2 sons, eleven
children, age and sex not given;
one niece, two grandsons, one
granddaughter, two brothers and
nine sisters, total of 383. Nine
children were left without father or
mother. Forty-three children were
under one year of age and thirty
six were between two or three
years.
A relief fund amounting in all
to 100000 was raised TO care for
the families. Only $4,000 of this
amount remains and this cannot last
longer than another year at most.
Ten cents day has been paid for
each child's support, where the
child was under eight years of age.
This money was drawn in advance.
Fifteen cents per day has been al
lowed for children over eight years
of age and for adults. This sum
has almost been sufficient to support
every family left without fathers
support. In a few instances the
disposition of some of the women
has been to buy more clothes with
this money than bread and meat.
When a widow or daughter married
her pension was cut off, the Relief
Committee having decided on this
action at the start. Nine names
have in this way been stricken from
the rolls during the year. AS a
result of the disaster 210 suits were
filed against the Coal Greek Coal
Company, the aggregate amount of
damages asked being close to 49,
100000. Of this number of suits
all save forty have been compro-
missed by the company on a basis
of 1920 and costs. 1t Is claimed
that in each suit which has been
compromised the interested at
torneys have received nearly one
third of the total amount given, al
though they have had comparative
ly little to do. AT the recommend
alton of the Relief Committee those
women who have been paid these
sums of money have invested in small
homes, the fact that they have re-
ceived the money not serving to cut
them off from the pension list.
Contrary to expectations the fami-
lies of the dead miners have not
scattered Almost without ex-
ception they are living in the vicini-
ty of Coal Greek. Although many
offers to adopt children have been
made to mothers, all, So far as
known, have met with refusals,
mothers not being willing to give
up a single child.
In Fraterville mine more men are
working to-day than went into the
mine on the morning of the terrible
explosion. There are 215 names on
the roll of employees and the ca
tastrophe of one year ago is almost
forgotten in the routine of every !
day life.

BUYING AN EXPOSITION.

When the exposition held a few years ago at Omaha had closed, It dis appeared as a mirage might One week a town of spectacular architec- ture stood on the fair grounds. So It appeared the Saturday the exposition closed. On Monday a swarm of aOO workmen poured in through the gates -and. in a twinkling the wonder city vanished. Not even the lagoon was left.
 Months before a wrecking company had bought the whole exposition TOT about $2o,OOO. As soon as the Tar had closed they hurried steam derrlcks, special cars and workmen to the grounds and forthwith began demoli- tion.
 The bricks that lined the lagoon and paved the sidewalks were taken up and shipped to Chicago The buildings were horn down: all the lumber was sent away: and the plaster was thrown into the lagoon. Whole sections or the roofs were lifted bodily upon the cars. The miles and miles of fence were taken down. Train load after train load of lumber, building materials. fur- ntture including thousands of chairs, in fact, everything that makes up the plant of an exposition. were sent to the company's great Chicago depot. Nothing was wasted. The hinges and locks on the doors were removed
 sorted and shipped. All the thousands of trees, shrubs and plants that dotted the exposition grounds were scien- tifically loaded on the cars and sent east. F1agpoles flags and type writers by the hundreds shared like fate Even the great panorama of the battle of Gettysburg was taken. Two weeks l from the close of the exposition the l grounds were bare and level. There was no water, These things were put into shape and sold. The company l has an immense store in which goods l are for sale. from needle to an an l chor"-furniture builders supplies lumber, flags. hinges and all the objects and materials used at expositions-ant
 not only these. but many more. for this
