LIKE FINDING MONEY.
C. A. Sexton Offers Popular Medicine at
Half Price.

C. A. Sexton, the popular druggist, is
making an offer that is just like finding
money for he is selling regular Soc bot
tie Of Dr. Howard's celebrated specific
for the cure of constipation and dyspepsia
At half price. In addition to this large
discount he agrees to return the money to
amy purchaser whom the specific does not
enre.
It is quite unusual to be able to buy
fifty-cent pieces for quarter, but that is
what this offer really means, for it is only
recently, through the solicitation of
Druggist G. A. Sexton, that this medi-
cine could be bought for less than fifty
cents. He urged the proprietors to allow
him to sell it at this reduced price for a
little while, agreeing to sell certain
amount. The result has justified his
good judgement, for the sale has been
something remarkable.
Anyone who suffers with headache,
dyspepsia, dizziness, sour stomach, specks
before his. eyes, or any liver trouble,
should take advantage of this opportun-
ity, for Dir. Howard's specific will cure
all these troubles. But if by any chance
it should not, G. A. Sexton will return
yonr money.

Apropos of modesty in politics, AL
len told story one day of an aspir-
ing citizen in Mississippi who used to
quote grandiloquently the familiar
saying: "The Office should seek the
man, not the man the office" A few
days later he was observed election
eering for himself in the old-fash-
aoned style, with whisky, cigars, etc.
Being reminded of his recent lofty
utterances, he answered: 81 still
maintain my position. The office
should seek the man; but, by CAD!
sab, the man should be around when
the office is looking for him. ."-Fran-

70 SNUFF VOLCANOES.
Startling Discovery Made by An
Australian.

Volcanoes can easily be extinguished,
says the New York Herald. A New
Zealand man claims (and there are
many who agree with him) to have
discovered a liquid by means of which
volcanoes may be extinguished quickly
whether active or threatening.
Many diseases of the human body
act in the same manner as volcanoes.
Dyspepsia, Rheumatism, Kidney Dis
orders, Female Diseases and many
others all begin with slight rumble
of pain and distress, and if not treated
in time will burst forth in all their
fury, causing all who are so afflicted
the most intense suffering and making
life a complete burden.
That liquid has been discovered
that will extinguish these volcanic
eruptions of disease, whether active or
threatening, Is not only certain but a
material fact.
DIR. DAVID KENNEDY'S FAVOR-
TIE REMEDY is this liquid discovery.
THE WONDERFUL CURATIVE
powers of this famous remedy have cut
a new path through the field of medi-
cine, sweeping with it a startling
record of tremendous success.

What's the matter with the rail-
roads? Accidents are so numerous
that they seem to occur every day.
Last winter there were numerous
accidents and the increase was said
to be due to the fact that the roads
were crowded with the business of
moving the crops. This summer
it seems the roads are overcrowded
with excursion trains. If it is hurry
that causes most of these accidents,
hurry to get great deal of work
done, it seems to be more profitable
to go slow for these casualties cost
the roads much money-money in
paying for the death or manning of
passengers, money to replace the
material occasioned in destruction by
wrecks. The Interstate Commerce
Commission has issued a statement
to the effect that for the three
months ending March 81, last, 900
people were killed and 1884 injured
in train accidents. Other kinds of
accidents, including those sustained
by employees while at work, run up
the total casualties to ST. killed and
1881 injured. This is greater
loss than that sustained by our army
in the war in the Philippines.

Centennial Celebration.

Chicago will celebrate the centen-
NAL anniversary of the permanent
settlement of that city the week of
Sept. 26 to Oct. /. The week is to
be devoted to great spectacular dis
play. The city will be the scene
of a series of municipal fetes such as
have been equaled only in the days
of the Romans. Two Of the most
popular features on the program will
be the military parade for President
Roosevelt, and vivid reproduction
of the burning of Chicago. The
parade will include large number
of United States regular troops, the
state MALTA, crack regiments from
different parts of the country and
many other uniformed organizations.
In the mimic confagration five hun
dred tons of Roman fire will be ig-
nited simultaneously on the tops of
the high buildings within the area
burned in 1871. In one of the parks
there will be reproduction of Fort
Dearborn, built in 1903. An indus
trial parade at night brilliantly il
Illuminated will be another spectacle.
There will also be superb fireworks.
automobile races, swimming races
and water polo contests, in which
the participants will be the famous
athletes of the country, and Other
amusements galore.
This will be great demonstra
ton. Chicago does nothing BY
halves.

know the English language sutfici-

Alaskan Boundary.

There seems to be a general mis-
apprehension Of the possible. effects
of the disagreement Of the commits
sion appointed to determine the
boundary of Alaska in dispute be-
tween the United States and Great
Britain. Each government in in
terest has appointed commission of
three. Now it is forseen that the
American commissioners will all
three stand for the boundary as
claimed by the United States, and
if the British commissioners all hold
to Canada's demands there will be
no decision. But in either case the
boundary as given in the treaty of
this government with Russia will
stand, because if there is no decision
by the commission, Great Britain
loses its case. 1t was Great Britain,
through the demand of Canada, that
appealed to this court of arbitration
which in any event must be final.
If four of the six commissioners do
not decide for the Canadian conten-
ton, ia very improbable conclusion)
then Canada loses its case, and the
treaty delimitation stands as the per-
manent boundary between this gov
ernment's possessions and those of
Great Britain.

A recent project is to connect the
east and west coasts of Scotland by
a ship canal. The total distance is
Go miles and it will cost S5o,ooo,ooo.
The Panama canal is question at
issue, but it will undoubtedly be
built in the near future. A wild
scheme is now discussed by the
newspapers of building a railway
that shall cross Behring strait
through tunnel 90 miles long.
Such road to connect with others
will require the building of $500
miles from Vancouver in Canada to
Behring strait and 400 from there
to connect with the Russian trans
Siberian. 1t may be seen that 5000
miles Of such road would pass
through territory from which little
trade could be expected.
