In this era when so many men wear
their political beliefs loosely, in this
time when the voter who went 70 bed

der the necessity of clothing himself
in the irrevocable gold standard, or of
having no democratic garments to

say, belong to party which has
never struck its flag which will not
desert it's creed, which stands today
just where it stood on the day OF its
birth, which glories in its principles
in the hour of defeat, which believes
it has message to mankind and a

never cease the struggle to restore our
government to the democratic ideal

great men who framed it.

A ray of spring sunshine crept in

Agnes Norwood had once been a

beauty to which she seemed to belong;
but her Gethsemane had come at the
supreme hour of her life-at a time
when she was radiantly happy-and
It's dark shadows had wrapped them
selves so closely about her that

rate their gloom. 1t was in May that
she had promised to be Arthur Came

gone death had claimed him. There
had been a short illness, a sudden
harm, and then the end. The brilliant

rhe only reality was the great wave
of desoladon that had settled down into
her heart when that which represented
all that life had for her was carried out
If her sight.
Since then the days had come and
gone alike, as one long painful dream.
In vain had the anxious parents and SYM
pathetic friends tried every expedient
TO waken within her the old passion
for music In those other days Agnes
sweet voice had thrilled large audiences.
The congregation ofthe First church had
not forgotten the Easter solo of last
year They were eager to, secure the
same singer for the coming Easter. But
Agnes refused to see any one, and in an
swer to all entreating letters on thessub-
iect wrote a 6rm refusal-it was impos-
sible for her to sing. 49,.

A Wonderful Discovery.

Broadland, S. OAK, March 2S.-Quite q
sensation has been created here by the
publication of the story of G.. w. Gray,
who after a special treatment for three
months was PROSTATE and helpless and
given up to die with Bright's Disease.
Bright's Disease has always been consid-
cred incuraoie, but evidently from the
story told by Mr.. Gray, there is a~remedy
which will cure it, even IN the most adj
vanced stages. This is what he says:
81 was helpless as q little babe. My
wife and ] searched everything and read
everything we could find about Bright's
Disease, hoping that would be able to
find remedy. After. many failures my
wife insisted that ! should try Dodd's
Kidney Pills. 1 praise God for the day
when decided to do so, for this remedy
met every phase of my case and In q
short time Twas able to get out of bed,
and after few weeks treatment I was a
strong, well man. Dodd's Kidney Pills
saved my life"
A remedy that will cure Bright's Disease
will cure any lesser Kidney Disease.
Dodd's Kidney Pills are certainly the
most wonderful discovery which modern
medical research has given to the world.
Tenderness is wisdom; there is none
in life but needs it and may Learnt.
