New Era in State Fairs.

At the meeting of the state board OF
agriculture held at the capitol here, it
was decided to add from Is to 25 per

For racing prizes, $4,000 has been hung
up by the association, this amount being
$500 more than that offered by Mime

bring together the fastest aggregation
of horse flesh ever seen in the west. The
association elected officers as follows:

Push Work in Both Houses.

Just how to expedite legislation and
still give time for the proper considera-
ton of the numerous bills demanding at
tention, is something of puzzle con-
fronting both branches. At the sugges-
ton of Senator Hatten and other chair
men of the more prominent committees
in the senate arrangements are now be-
ing made to plan committee meeting
schedules so that conflicts in hours can
be minimized The plan is TO arrange a
time card programme and thus insure
the attendance OF all the senators at
the more important committee meet
ings. If this can be done, the considera-
ton of bills will be fastened and the
senators can proceed along more sys-
tematic lines of work.

SCIATIC TORTURE
PAIN SUFFERED BY Mr.. MARST0N
AS GREAT AS MORTAL CAN STAND.
For Six Months He Could Not Turn in
Bed-He Tells of Remedy Which
Has Given Perfect Relief

For Six Months He Could Not Turn in
Bed-He Tells of a Remedy Which
Has Given Perfect Relief
The case of Mr.. Marston shows that
sciatica can be cured, and no one afflicted
by it should allow himself to be dis
heartened. He was first stricken about
year ago, and for six months he suffered
pain which he thinks the most intense
that any man could possibly stand.
Asked about the details of his remark
able recovery, Mr.. Marston gave the fol-
lowing account: "I was attacked by e.
nurnbness or dull feeling just back Of my
right hip. I didn't know what the mat
ter was, but thought it was simply a
stiffness that would wear away IN q
short time. 1t didn't, however, and
soon the pain became SO very bad that
every step was torture for me. When !
finally succeeded i'll getting home, twas
inst as much as I could do to reach my
room and get to bed.
1.-THE doctor was sent for, and when he
had examined me he said had sciatica.
He prescribed for me, and advised me not
to try to leave my bed. The advice was
unnecessary for I couldn't get out Of
bed if wanted to. Tt was impossible for
me to turn from one side to the other.
The moment I attempted to move any
part of my body, the pain became so ex-
cruciating that would have to lie per-
fectly motionless.
81 suffered this torture for six months
without getting any relief. Then dis
charged the doctor, and on the advice of
a friend bought box of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills and began to take them, three
at dose, three times a day. Twas de-
termined to give them a thorough trial.
1.-TWO months after began to use
them I was able to leave my bed and
walk about the house, and a month later
/ was entirely cured and able to go about
my work as usual. I think DIR. Williams
Pink Pills are the best medicine ever
used, and heartily recommend them to
anyone who suffers from sciatica."
Mr.. Marston is a prosperous farmer
and may be reached by mail addressed
to Charles p. Marston, Hampton p. o.,
New Hampshire. DIR. Williams Pink
Pills have cured other painful nervous
disorders, such as neuralgia, partial par
alysis and locomotor ataxia. They are
sold by all druggists.

to the position of state treasurer in 1888
and 1900. In 1902 came his nomination
for lieutenant governor. He was elected
to this Office the same year and reelected
at the election last fall. Mr.. Davidson
has never pushed himself to the front,
it is said On the occasions of his NOM
ination for the assembly and for the po-
sition of treasurer, both honors were
forced upon him, and at the time both
events took place he was not present.
Being i'll and weary over the struggle
necessary to get. his measures through
the legislature the governor asked Dav-
idson to accept place upon the repub-
lican ticket. The request could not be
refused, and now the fortunes of poll
tics have placed the lieutenant governor
in the most coveted office in the state.

Roads Deny Stopping Plans.

Following closely upon the heels of
the declaration by railroad officials that
improvements in the state were to be
stopped until the feeling of enmity and
adverse legislation ceased. comes the
denial of any such project from the pres
idents of the Chicago, Milwaukee & st.
Paul and the Chicago & Northwestern.
In letters received here, these magnates
declare that the reports are untrue and
that they have no intentions of block
ing the many improvements planned for
Wisconsin The value of the denial of
the report is merely a matter of con-
lecture, and until some action is taken
or a considerable time has passed with
out any move on the part of the roads in
stopping Improvements, it will be hard
to judge the truth of either side.

THE SIMPLE LIFE.
Ways That Are Pleasant and Paths
That Are Peace.

1t is the simple life that gives length
Of days, serenity of mind and body
and tranquility of soul.
Simple hopes and ambitions, bound
ed by the desire TO do good TO ones
neighbors, simple pleasures, habits,
food and drink.
Men die long before their time be-
cause they try to crowd too much into
their experiences-they climb too high
and fall too hard. A wise woman
writes of the good that a simple diet
has done her:
Il have been using Grape-Nuts for
about six months. began rather
sparingly, until / acquired such a ik-
ing for it that for the last three
months / have depended upon it al
most entirely for my diet, eating moth
ing else whatever, but Grape-Nuts for
breakfast and supper, and believe
could eat it for dinner with fruit an !
be satisfied without other food. and
feel much better and have more
strength to do my homework.
When I began the use of Grape
Nuts l was thin and weak, my muscles
were so soft that l was not able to do
any work. weighed only los pounds.
Nothing that I ate did me any good.
/ was going down hill rapidly, was
nervous and miserable, with no ambi-
ton for anything. My condition i'm
proved rapidly after / began to eat
Grape-Nuts food. 1t made me feel like
a new woman; my muscles got solid
my figure rounded out, my weight in.
creased to 126 pounds in a few weeks
my nerves grew steady and my mind
better and clearer My friends tell
me they haven't seen me look so well
for years.
II consider Grape Nuts the bert food
on the market, and shall never go
back to meats and white bread again. .

Madison, Wis. March 20.-Now that
adjournment of the legislature is being
talked of seriously among the solons,
all eyes are turned upon Lieut.. Gov.
Davidson as the successor 70 Gov. La
Toilette, who will, as soon as the session
is over. assume his duties as United
States senator from Wisconsin. At
present Mr.. Davidson has little to say
regarding his induction into the office
vacated by Mr. La Toilette, but is pay
ing close attention to his duties as pre-
siding officer Of the senate. Hardly had
Gov. La FolIettes boom for the United
States senatorship been launched when
the friends Of the lieutenant governor
were predicting great things for their
leader. No man of prominence to-day
can lay claim to the adjective self
made" by a better right than that Of
James o. Davidson. Davidson arrived
here from Norway at the age of IS,
friendless, penniless and in a strange
land, and 80 years of time finds him at
the head of great commonwealth. In
1892 he was named for the assembly
from Crawford county, and his work in
the legislature resulted in his election

clamor for Two-cent Fare.

The clamor of the people of Wiscon-

more convincing character day by day
and.th assembly has shown its inclina-

passing a measure containing that pro-
vision. 1t has been suggested that be-
fore the senate acts upon the measure
an investigation made by the railroad
rate commission, instituted under the
pending bills, and two years from the
present session report be read to the
senate. If the necessity for two-cent
fare is seen the measure will be passed,
and in all probability become law.
