The New York World and Post

OF course the extravaganza claims
OF the Parker boomers are taken witt
grain OF salt. While his fitness fol
and claims to the nomination have
been subjects OF discussion fol
months, no one believes that he viii
have anything ike the number o
delegates set out above.
Senator Cockrelps friends conf
IDENTIFY believe that he will go into
that convention with a strong back
ing and that his pre-eminent qualifi
cations and fitness for the Office viii
keep him to the front and that HI
stands good chance OF capturing
the nomination.

Butler, No.
Dear Sir: We suspect you'd like
the tale, how a woman beat two
hard ware dealers In Girard, Pa.
We tried our best to get those men
to sell Devos lead and-sinc in that
bright town; and failed. Reluctantly
took Mrs. E. R Bowman, druggist.
They said they couldn't sell paint
for more than $1.25 sgallon. Mrs.
Bowman can. She has sold about
oil the paint that has been sold there
since.
She knew Devoe; had sold our art
lists materials. Had some sense and
force, besides; she easily learned that
cheap is dear in paint, and told the
people.
Mr.. Burt Young bought q gallon
Devoe for rooms that had always
taken q gallon Of other paint; had
hall left.
Mr.. E. d. Hiler, iewelsr, painted
Devoe, and says 1t goes iurther-no
particulars.
Mr.. John Hanna, grocer, thought
it expensive before be bought It;
brought back nearly hall ofhispaint,
and said it was the cheapest job be
ever had.
Mrs. Bowman reports universal
satisfaction. So much for q cheap
paint town with q bright woman In
1t.
Yours truly,
+. W. DEvoE 4 Co.,
New York and Chicago.
P.S--Gough 4 hess sell our paint.

MILLIONAIRE's POOR STOMACH

MILLI0NAIRE'S POOR STOMACH
The WORKOUT stomach of the over
fed millionaire is often paraded in
public prints as a horrible example
Of evils attendant on the possession
Of great wealth. But millionaires are
not the only ones who are afflicted
with bad stomachs. The proportion
is far greater among the toilers. Dys-
pepsia and indigestion are rampant
among these people, and they suffer
far worse fortunes than the million
aire unless they avail themselves ola
standard medicine like Green's Au-
gust Flower, which has been favor.
ite household remedy for all stomach
troubles for over thirty five years.
August Flower rouses the torpid
liver, thus creating appetite and In.
surfing perfect digestion. 1t tones
and vitalizes the entire system and
makes lite worth living, no matter
what your station. Trial bottles.

Asks LarQe Sum for Injuries.

The personal injury case of JOS
eph Hebert against the Interstate
Iron company is on trial in the dis.
trict court before Judge Dibell.
Hebert is suing to recover $l5.5OO
damages for injuries alleged to
have been sustained by falling into
ditch near the Lincoln mine at
Virginia. He was employed at the
mine and was on his way home
when the accident happened. In
support of his claim for damages
he sets forth in his onplain thai t
the ditch was unprotected and that
he fell into it through no careless
ness on his part.
The complaint also alleges that
the plaintiff sustained a fractured
leg and concussion of the brain, but
when questioned as to the latter in
jury by the defendants attorney he
admitted that he did not know the
meaning of the word. To simplify
matters he was asked "if he had a
dent in his head" and he said that
he did not, further stating that he
had never told his attorney that he
did.
Hebert is represented by Alexan
der Marshall and J. De la Motto and
the Interstate company by Theo
Hollister..-News Tribune.

MAY GET AMERICAN SHIPS
Russia May Have to Have Warships
Built Here.

st. Petersburg, Nov. America is
likely to profit by Russia g large naval
program. Russia is fully determined
that the maintenance of the empire g
position in future as a frst-class power
will be impossible without an adequate
navy. If the losses the Pacific fleet has
already sustained should be followed by
disaster to Vice Admiral Rojestvensky.' 8
squadron, it will be necessary not only
to rebuild the whole navy, but to in
crease it's strength.
The disposition is to turn towards
France, Germany and the United States
and a great plant at Libau, or on the
banks Of the Neva, directed by Ameri-
can brains, and possibly in association
with French and German enterprise, is
one Of the possibilities of the near flu
ture.
Among the Americans here negoti-
ating with the Russian government is
J. E. Wilson, who is trying to sell an in:
vention of smokeless powder perfected
by Scotchman named Archibald, who
once was a resident of the United
States. The particular merit claimed
for the powder, which is adapted tc
heavy artillery, is quick drying quail
ity, ordinary smokeless powder takiri
several months to dry.
