The crown Of womsnhood 10 mother hood-
But uneasy lies the head that wsars the
crown or anticipates this coronation when
there Is lack of womanly strength TO bear
the burdens Of maternal dignity and duty
The reason why 90 many women sink under
the strain Of motherhood Is because thew
are unprepared.
II unhssitstingly advise expeStapt moth
ers TO use DIR. Pierce's Fsvorite Prescrip-
ton, writes Mrs. ]. w. 6. Stephens. of Mia
Northvm berland Co. Va. The reason for
this advice is that DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
sSftp'ion is the best preparative for the
maternal function. No matter how healthy
and strong woman may be, she cannot
use Favorite Prescription n a prepare
tive for maternity without gain OF health

Dement'S received from the use of -Fsvorite

the baoy's advent practically painless 1t
has IN many cases reduced days of suffer
ing to a few brief hours. II has changed
the period Of anxiety and struggle into q

The Republicans were not in favor of
better schools last fall, when nearly
every prominent one in the county
voted against the increase OF the coun-
~ levy for schools. Maiden Spring
District, which is strongly Republican,
voted largely against the increase of
levy, but the other district increase was
defeated. Candidate Harman's Sposi.
ton On this question was never known.
He was SILENT as was the republican
organ OF the county. Evidently they
believe. Where ignorance is bliss 1t Is
oily TO be wise"

Judge Lewis act in resigning the dis
trict attorneyship as soon as he was
nominated was play to the galleries.
and his act was well calculated before
he took 1t. The President, after the
election, no doubt, will restore him to
his own place or give him something
better for making the sacrifice. Watch
the prediction. Few republicans die.
and none resign except for something
better. We have known some to re-
sign like Lewis did and fail to reach
the goal for which they were striving.

SENATOR HARTMAN SOMER.SAULT

Senator j. y. Hartman, who was
nominated last week as candidate FOL
superintendent of schools by the Repub.
hcan State Convention, gave out the
following which was published in tn,
daily papers OF the State, under date
OF May 20: Having tired of political
life, and having accepted call t.
preach from the church at Graham
Va, the first and third Sundays in each
month, | have decided to retire from
active politics, aud devote the rest OF
my life TO the ministry, and to such
business pursuits as will not tend 10
weaken my influence as preacher.
While L believe that preachers can. and
under certain circumstances ought 10
TO take an active part in politics, vet.
for the sake Of those who do not think
as do it seems better ior me 10 take
this stand. l have today mailed Gov.
Montague my resignation as senator
i will not be candidate To-,
reelection etc.
The following week the Clinch Valley
News said editorially:
Senator j. n. Hartman has again
withdrawn from politics" This time
he goes farther than in any Of his
former withdrawals" and sends in his
resignation TO Governor Montague as
senator from this district. However
The public, who remember Mr.. Har-
mans several former Withdrawals will
want TO wait until the next campaign
is over before accepting this last an
nouncement."
Those OF us who have been familiar
with Mr.. Harman's frequent CONVEX.
slons were not very much surprised al
This last somer-sault. Ii is 10 be pre.
sumed that the senator has had new
light, and feels that activity in politics
viii not weaken his influence AS a
preacher" and decided to ignore those
"who do not think as L do" and let
them think" as they please.
This changeable preacher has made
big break this time. He stood fairly
good chance to be reelected senator
from this district, but has no chance
whatever OF being elected superintend-
ent OF schools, and after the election
in November will be forced TO the ne.
cessity of issuing another sprocIama-
fion." He opens his campaign Oh the
21st at Marion.

trict, and Is himself staunch republi-
can. II cannot See that the New Con-
sttuton has hurt our people either
politically or otherwise" said Mr..
Slemp, "and for my part, 1 have but
little, il any, sympathy with the fight
that is being made upon it."
1t will be remembered that at this
time John S. Wise was trying to upset
the New Constitution, and II he sue
ceeded, Slemp and all other congress
men-elect would not get the certificates
Of election. Wise did not succeed, and
how is it now? All the Slemp's and
their pie-eaters are abusing the Con-
stitution, as the burden OF their song
and about the only thing they talk on
the stump and in the hollows and by
ways, and you will continue to hear
again. Now how is this for consistency?
But the New Constitution Is here TO
stay and their song will soon be thing
OF the past.
While the above suit was pending
and Wise was securing signers of the
republican members Of the legislature
TO aid his suit, the Southwest members
we think, refused to sign his petition
because OF Slemp's influence with them.
