more active foreign policy, especially
with regard to France. England and

II you have a gray-haired mother
In the old home far away,
Sit down and write the letter
You put off day by day,
Don't wait until her tired steps
Reach heavens pearly gate,
But show her that you think of her
Before it is too late.
If you've tender message,
Or a loving word to say,
Don't wait till you forget it,
But whisper it to-day.
Who knows what bitter memories
May haunt you if you wait?
So make your loved one happy

We live but in the present,
The future is unknown;
Tomorrow is a mystery,
To-day is all our own.
The chance that fortune leads to VI
May vanish while we wait,
So spend your life's rich pleasure
Before it is too late.
The tender word unspoken,
The letters never sent,
The long-forgotten messages,
The wealth of love unspent,
For these some hearts are breaking.
For these some loved ones wait;
So show them that you care for them
Before it is too late.

Monday TO obtain Munyon's Paw-Paw

of our best known citiZens-a number
of doctors obtained a bottle. One of
them volunteered the remark that he
had heard Of the curative qualities of
the remedy and would give it thorough
trial. One of our leading lawyers took
dose before he left the office and said
that she expected now to live as long as
Methuselah did" Most people seem to
have an abiding faith in this remedy be-
lieying they are going to be cured.
One old gentleman said that he be-
ieved in Muny0n and in Munyon's
Remedy that Munyon's Rheuma-
tism Cure had cured him of a
chronic case Of Rheumatism that afflicted
him for more than fifteen years.
Another gentleman said if this rem
edy is as good as his Kidney Cure it
should fiR1 its way into every home in

had cured him of bad case of kidney
ailment.
The professor would possibly have felt
a little abashed could he have heard
the warm praises that welI-dressed
lady showered upon his family remed-
les which she said she kept continually
in the house.
The crowd was SO great at times that
the attendant was unable to hand out
the bottles fast enough and one or two

with dyspepsia, catarrh, or has anything

Anew Service Without Parallel.

There is ample justification for the
claim made by the Chicago Record
Herald that its readers enjoy every
day in the week, Sundays included, a
news service that is without parallel
in range and completeness. In addi-

of The Record Herald, that paper re-
eeives the complete news service of the
New York Herald, the New York World

it is considered that its news columns
are supplemented by all the special fea-

Washington. ID. T.. May D, 1904.
Since Congress adjourned many Sena-
tors and repre- ,entatives have remained
in the city advising with each other
and the President concerning the com
ing convention at Chicago, and the con-
duet of the campaign. There was a
notable gathering at the White House
on Sunday, with these ends in view. At
the conference were Senators Hale, ALI
son, Aldrich, Spooner, Platt of Conn.,,
Speaker Cannon and Secretary COurtel-
you. 1t was announced that over five
hundred delegates to Chicago are
pledged to vote for the President. In
view OF the great popularity of Speaker
Cannon, and his sterling common sense,
as we'll as the desirability of having a
strong man from the west on the ticket
as Vice-President, he was urged to per-
nit his name to be used for that posi-
ton. 1t is doubtful it Mr.. Cannon will
consent, he is so we'll pleased with, and
fitted for, the speakership. All agreed
that there must be a steady upholding
of protective tariff; that the personal
attacks upon the President shosld be re-
PEELED with vigor; and that it would be
easy to show that the Republicans have
made the best record in the matter OF
regulating the trusts.
