The Democratic party, with its I'M

with the Democratic party, this year,
is II does not even furnish a good dis

Chamberlain's Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with It's
good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity of Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy. 1t not only cures colds
and grip effectually and permanently
but prevents these diseases from re-
sulting in pneumonia. 1t Is also q
certain cure for Group. WhoopinG
cough is not dangerous when ms rem
edy Is given. It contains no opium or
other harmful substance and may be
given as confidently to a baby as an
adult. Il is also pleasant to take.
When all of these facts are taken in.
to consideration II is not surprising
that people in foreign lands, as well as
at home. esteem this remedy very
highly and very few r willing 10
take any other after having once used

Would IL Be Wise?

1t is conceded that the Democrats
are not on record or the tariff question.
This being the case, would 1t not be
unwise to trust tariff revision to the
party opposed to the principle of pro,

free trade, bringing industrial depres-
sion, hard times and the inevitable
lowering of prices on farm productsl

Had No Use For Her.

A certain small village in the West,
far removed from the noise and hustle
Of commerce, boasts a female preacher,
and the ladys duties are many. One
day she may visit the sick, another
attend funeral and the next bsptize
a baby. One afternoon she was pre-.
pairing the sermon for the following
Sabbath when she heard timid knock
at the parsonage door. Answering
the summons, she found bashful
young German standing on the step
twirling bis straw hat in his hands.

sI.oo A YEAR.
Worlds largest Diamond.


In jewellers circles great interest
has been awakened by the announce.
ment that cutting operations have
been begun on the great Jagersfoutein
Excelsior, the largest and finest dia-
mond in the world. The stone was
held for ten years before its owner
could make satisfactory arrangements
for It's cutting. which has now been
undertaken by firm in Amsterdam,
Holland. 1t was transported from
London TO Amsterdam under special
protection, and carpeted room, with
a specially made safe, has been pro-
vided for its care during the progress
Of cutting and polishing.
The responsibility OF handling and
guarding so precious stone may be
gathered from the fact that its value
may be almost anything. When dis
covered it was estimated to be worth
million dollars, but in It's finished state
it will command a fabulous price.
1t was found on June 80, 1898, at
Jagersfontein, in the Orange Free
State, South Africa, The stone wss
picked up by native while he was
loading truck, and although white
overseer was standing near him, he
managed to secrete and keep it on his
person for some time. In this case,
however, it did not appear that he
proposed stealing the gem, but only
wished to deliver 1t personally to the
manager. This he did, aud .es
bonus he received $3.50 and horse,
saddle and bride.
The diamond weighed in the rough
exactly 97l carsts, or about Z ounces
avoIrdupois 1t is Of a beautiful
blush white color, and shaped like
the broken of end of All icIcle. The
diamondiferous monster measures
three inches in length, one and one
half inches in thickness, two aud one.
halt inches IN greater and one and one
third inches IN least breadth The
Excelsior has now been broken into
sixteen pieces, the three largest Of
which are lS5, All and l30 carats,
respectively. These individual gems,
in themselves OF extraordinary size,
will be, when fully cut aud polished,
among the finest in the world, aud
value of the original stone will thus
be multiplied.

he heard before be departed from the

A farmer, who had bought a horse
from a dealer. said
THAT horse you sold me balks,
bites, kicks, runs away and tries 10
batter down the sides Of bis stall.

I wouldn't part with him for $500"

GOOD ADVICE.
Here's Some Pertinent Advice.

Anything that a man really wants
is cheap enough il he has the price.
Your advertising should make him
want your goods. Mere offerings at
bargain prices aren't a good basis for
attracting business year in and year
out. The best sort OF a bargain is to
show the good qualities OF an article
in such strong light that when the
prospective customer learns the price
he viii Immediately see for himself how
cheap il is Which suggests in con-
clusion another prominent rule: State
the facts and let the reader draw his
own deductions -
Evening journal., 1904-11-16

People may "guess' what you have
in your store; if you tell them they'll
know.
The man who wants to be busy to-
morrow must plan for something to
happen tomorrow.
A close margin makes a good friend.
A plain statement helps TO sell goods,
