DIR. Miles'Nervine Cured
My Wife.

DR.. Miles Nefvine has been successfully
tried in thousands of cases of nervous disor-
derS, but never,has it made better record than
when used in the treatment of fits or spasns.
Thousands of testimonials prove this and in
nearly every instance the writer has stated
that the fits ceased after the first dose OF Ner-
vine was given. The statement is repeated
in the following:
"Seven years ago my wife commenced
having spasms or fits and | called in my
home physician and he said she was para
lived. He rubbed her with salt water and
gave her calomel and she eventually got
some better, but in a short time she had
another attack. She was confined tc her
bed for three months and the doctor could
not help her. She had fits frequently, some
times very severe. Her hands would cramp
so we could not open them and she finally
got so her Jaws would become locked.
Finally | saw the doctor was doing her no
good and ordered bottle of DR.. Miles Re-
storatve Nervine. She received so much
benefit from the first bottle that got some
more. She has taken a number of bottles
but has never had fit sinre taking the first
dose. She also thinks very highly of DR..

UNCLE JOE KICKS.
StrenuousIy Objects to Vice-Pres-
idenCy Being Thrust on Him.

"Unclc Joe" Cannon is quoted as
saving that if he should be nominated
against his will to the vice presidency
and elected he would take the oath OF
office, so that his salary might be re-
mitted to him, appoint private secre-
tary, a messenger and a telephone
clerk-all the patronage that goes with
the ofice-and "would never go near
the id place again" The Pbiladel'
phia Record recalls that he would but
follow a precedent set by Mr.. Wheeler
who was vice president in the Hayes
administration. Mr.. Wheeler was an
ardent fisherman and spent pretty
much all of his time while vice-presi-
dent Turing the fish around Malone, N.
Y. He was rarely seen about the SEN
ate chamber after he had taken the
oath of Office.

Baked AT K. OF P. GOAT.
Candidate Got Away and Sued a
Lodge for Assault.

John Curtis, lumberman of Hay
wood county, Kentucky, so years old,
did not like the treatment he received
while taking the second rank, Knights
of Pythias, at Canton, and has brougtt
suit against the lodge, charging as
sault. A warrant for the arrest of the
district deputy grand chancellor, Geo.
L. Hackney OF Asheville, was served
Friday. Hackney gave bond.
Curtis had already taken the fret
rank and was almost through with the
second when he backed down and re-
fused to go any farther. The lodge
members tried to reason with him and
prevent a scene. Curtis was in no
reasoning mood, and after fruitless eff
forts to get him to go on he was allow
ed to leave the hall.
The grand lodge will make an effort
to have the case thrown out of court,
as it would diYulge the secrets of the
order.

NEW PHASE OF MODERN LIFE
CIergymen Now Advertise in
Papers for Situations.

Clergymen advertlsing-not for souls
to save, but for something ION the
side" whereby they can earn an honest
dollar! This is what we are now be-
ginning to witness as the result of the
stress of modern life reaching out to
all crafts and callings, and last of all
to the ministry. A situation which
would have been unthinkable to past
generations now forces ministers of
the gospel to advertise for positions.
A number of the current church
publications contain advertisements
under the head of "Wanted" in which
clergymen seek parish, living, Or,
to simplify the matter, a "call." One
ingenious follower of the cross in a
northern state advertises his qualiica-
lions and desires thus; clergyman Of
large experience wants small parish;
is of good reputation aud musical"
Moralize as we may, or turn and
twist the matter as we can, there is
nothing here but natural compliance
with the exigencies of modern life in
which the preacher and the shoemak-
err alike must face a world Of business,
says the Albany Herald. Neverthe-
less, the idea is sufficiently novel TO
awaken curiosity as to where it will
end and how it would be received by
the priestcraft of old days.

SENTIMENTS OF A PATRIOT
HEARST DOESN'T REGARD PRESIDENCY
AS AN END, BUT AN OPPORTUNITY.
Declares That His Candidacy Is of No
Moment Except as 1t Bears Upon
important Public Questions.

William r. Hearst has been a target
at which many democratic arckers
have shot arrows OF vulgar abuse and
coarse Evaporation. Laying aside all
reference to the vile assaults upon the
personal eide of his character and con-
sidering here only the political phase,
he has been charged with being
seeker after the presidency for his own
selfish ACKNOWLEDGMENT and without
any regard for his country's interests
and the welfare of the people.
No candidate ever expressed more
patriotic sentiments than were recent
ly breathed by Mr.. Hearst in an inter-
view in the Philadelphia North Amer
lean. He said:
"The question of my nomination for
the presidential Office by the ST. Louis
convention is to me, as well as to the
party, one of minor Importance when
compared with the real problems that
the convention must determine.
"My own candidacy is OF no moment
except as it bears upon the greater
question of whether the democratic
party shall be dominated by that ele-
ment which does not look beyond the
Offices, or whether what l have been
pleased to term the progressive de-
mocracy' shall prevail.
81 do not regard the presidency as
an end, but as an opportunity. l would
not deem it worth while merely to be
pointed out as the man who is presi-
dent, but would give all possess to
b. pointed out as the man who, when
pr s.dent, stopped the trusts from rob-
bing the people.
81 am loyal enough democrat not
to have to be bribed by an Office into
supporting the nominees and platforms
of my party"
These words are sensible, patriotic
and democratic. The splendid and
faithful services of Mr.. Hearst in the
past should have saved him from ma
licious attacks by members of bis own
party-a party to which he has been
loyal and true.
