Peoples National Bank, of Sis
tersville, Tyler county, West Vir-
inia, has had a success which is
unusual in a city where there are
so many banks to divide up the
business. The officers Of this in
|stitution were the officers Of the
Farmers & Producers National
bank, the majority Of the stock OF
which was quietly acquired by 4
syndicate unbeknown to the Off
GERS. Upon learning of the situa-
|tion, the banks officers immedi-
|ately conceived the idea of start
ling a new bank and secured sub
scriptions to more than the re-
quired amount of capital stock
the first time that they circulated
lit. The bank began business jan
uary 8, 1903, with capital stock
of $4,000, and already it's depos-
it's aggregate $462,500. The bank
has a surplus and undivided profit
account of $11,25O. The officers
are G. B. West, president; A. D..
McVey, vice president T. G. Neal,
cashier, and John Kinkaid, assis-
tant cashier. The directors are
|G. B. West, Samuel McCoach, Ed
Roome, Clint Moore, G. B. Sle-
maker, A. D. McVey, Andy Bru-
ner, James Henaghan, J. Y. Nc
Naught, A. B. Hunt, T. C. Neal,
John Kinkaid, Charles E. Bailey
and D. E. Thoenen.
The prospects for the future of
this bank are very good, as it is
continually opening new ac-
counts. When the bank was fif-

The gates are open. You can

velous land by intelligent labor
and intelligent thinking. You can
be what you will, and it is as true
today as it was 127 years ago;
when the American flag was born.
Of course, there are ills. There
must be when the affairs of life
are guided by human minds and
hands.
But, compared to the benefits
that are being showered on nearly
100000 people, they are moth
ing,
1t is the best country on the
face of the globe, and the flag, the
emblem Of progress, equality, lib
erty, charity, kindness, should
float over every home in the land
at least one day in each year-lest
we forget.

The one hundred and twenty
seventh anniversary of the adop-
ton of the Stars and Stripes as
the National emblem by Congress
finds it today flying in more bril-
liant honor than ever before and
with its glory untarnished. On
land and sea it has never been
lowered in disgraceful defeat, and
with each succeeding year it has
come to mean more and more the
protection of American citizen

world.

Weak


Are due to indigestion. Nlnety-nine of every
one hundred people who have heart trouble
can remember when 1t was simple indiges-
ton. It is q scientific fact that all cases Of
heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable to. but are the direct result of indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting it up against the
heart. This interferes with the action Of
the heart. and in the course of time that
delicate but vital organ becomes diseased.

1t is a great convenience to have
at hand reliable remedies for use in
cases of accident and for slight in
juries and ailments. A good liniment
and one that is fast becoming a IA
vorite If not a household necessity,
is Chamberlain,s Pain Balm. By ap-
plying it promptly to a cut, bruise or
burn it allays the pain and use the
injury to heal in about one-third the
time usually required, and as it is an
antiseptic it prevents any danger of
blood poisoning. When Pain Balm is
kept at hand a sprain may be treated
before inflammation sets in, which
insures a quick recovery. For sale by
all druggists.

President Acts on Pardon Cases.

The President has denied three applica-
tons for pardon, and has acted favorably
on the five following cases:
He has pardoned Samuel NJ. Alfred, con-
vlcted In the Indian territory of larceny
OF small amount of cotton. and sentenced
in January. 1904. to Imprisonment for a
year and day in the United States peni-
tertiary. The pardon recommended by
the district attorney and judge, for the
reason that Alfred was a boy of seven
teen. was led into the commission of the
offense by older criminals, and made a
full confession. which resulted in the pun
ishment of his older co-defendants. He
has been in prison for more than six
months.
He has granted a pardon conditioned
upon the payment of costs to Charles
Parks. who pleaded guilty in Mississippi
of embezzling post office funds. The at
torney and judge reported that the en-
bezzlement was only a technical one. which
was repaid before any prosecution, and
the court suspended its sentence pending
an application for pardon.
He has committed, to expire July l. the
sentence of Stella Davis. convicted in St
Louis of counterfeiting, and sentenced to
Imprisonment for five years, of which she
has served one-half The application for
pardon was initiated by the district at<or-
rey and judge. who believe that the prison.
ell has been sufficiently punished, for the
reason that she was doubtless influenced by
her husband, who was also convicted of
counterfeiting. and sentenced to seven years
and because the prison reports indicate that
she has been completely reformed.
He has RENTED forfeited recognizance
taken 81 the District of Columbia on May l.
1866, In which Jonas Webster was defend
ant and Josephine Simms surety.
He has committed. to expire July 1, the
sentence of James p Considine, who was
convicted in the southern district of Ohio
for post office robbery. and sentenced in
1901 to Imprisonment for five years in the
Ohio penitentiary He has served the great
er portion of his sentence. The district at
torney and judge believe he has been suffl-
GENTLY punished and reformed
