Poetry and Prose.

The ablest writer's in England have
revived the Walt Whitman controver-
sy. Several of them assert he was
beyond question the ablest man
America has produced Able thinker
he was, versatile as a versifier. prodi.
gious as phflanthropist, knowing as
a student of woman and Bohemian to
the marrow of his bones. Personally
Whitman was lovable character. I
knew him Intimately twelve years and
was pallbearer at his grave, but a few
names like Hawthorne, Holmes, Low
ell and, last but not least, George Ar
mold find a warmer place in nay heart.
And, seriously, was anything ever said
in verse that couldn't have been bet
ter told in prose? A few skeptics, like
the writer, doubt it.

A GREAT INSTITUTION.

1t is unusual that a single institution in a
city OF 1000 people will overshadow In i'm
portance every other interest, but such is
the case with the American School of
Osteopathy, and A T. Still Infrmary at
Kirksville, Mo.
A stranger in Kirksville is immediately
impressed with the idea that the town il
sustained by this institution, in fact,
kirksyille has been made what it Is to-day
by DR.. Still and his famous School and
endowed institution of its kind in the
United States.
DR.. Stills school enrolls over 700 students
yearly and each student is required to At
tend four terms of five months each before
completing the course of study. There are
ticing in every state and territory of the
Union. About two-thirds of the states
have passed special laws legalizing the
science.
This school teaches every branch taught
in medical colleges except drugs and
thorough is the teaching in anatomy that
over one hundred human bodies are dis
sected yearly by the students.
AT the Inhrmary, patients from every
part OF the country and with almost every
form of disease are constantly under treat
ment. For the past fifteen years almost
every train coming to Kirksville has
lief by the science of Osteopathy. BY the
thousands who have left the institution
benefited by the treatment, the science has
been heralded to the world safe and
rational method of cure Several years ago
free clinic was established in connection
with the practice department of the school
and this Is still in operation. Hundreds of
the worthy poor, who are unable to pay for
treatment, are treated every afternoon by
the senior students free of charge.

Five minutes later the jury filed into
the court room, where Scotty Bur-
rows, in the custody of the sheriff,
was gripping his chair arms with
whitened knuckles and glancing nerv-
ously at his wife, who, pale and wide
eyed, clasped her baby to her bosom
and painted as the judge looked over
his spectacles at the foreman.

Capitol to Be Extended.

IhlS session of congress will in all
probability authorize an extension of
the United States capitol which will
cost several million dollars, and in
crease the size of the building fully
one-third. Under the old conditions
such an expansion of the already spa
clous structure would probably have
appalled, the men who are frequently
called upon to communicate with
widely-separated points in Uncle
Sans biggest Office building. Now
they can regard the growth with Sc
renity, for the capitol has, all its own,
as complete telephone system as is
to be found in the average city of TO-
900 inhabitants, the exchange being
connected with more than 300 tele-
phones throughout the building
Steps are also to be taken to give
the capitol more efficient system of
fire protection, for, whereas, the mass
i've structure is, in it's construction,
we'll safeguarded against fire, it's
rooms contain vast quantities OF rec
ords, books and documents of value
which would be rapidly consumed
were not means at hand for quickly
extinguishing the flames. The .provi-
sion of a modern fire department is
all that is needed to make the con-
gressional community a little city by
itself, for it already boasts a police
department that numbers more men
than are on the pay roll of the average
small city; postoffice that does a
tremendous business, and an 1nstitu-
tion-the office of the sergeant-at-arms
performs all the functions of
a bank When the new Office build
fngs are completed. the capitol will
also have it's own underground rail-
way system.

weight of many tons.
1t sometimes requires a higher de-
gree of heroism to break the chains
of pernicious habit than to lead q

lady writes from an Indiana town:
From my earliest childhood I was

ness is health, melancholy is disease.
Cheerfulness is just as natural to the
heart of man in sound moral and
physical health as color is to his
cheeks, and whenever we see habitual
gloom we may be sure there is some
thing radically wrong in the animal
economy, or the moral sense.
Sydney Smith once gave a lady two

to remember all the pleasant things
said to her, another to keep a box Of
sweets on the mantelpiece and ket-

trivial things in themselves, but life

Description Of Persian sheep.

A traveller, giving an account of the
Persian sheep in 1898. says: THE
tails frequently weighed eight or ten
pounds, and they have six or eight
horns, some of which stood out hori-
zontaly and caused a great deal of
bloodshed when the rams engaged
with one another. Both the wool and
flesh of these sheep were greatly val
ued."

Is forced into the senate chamber
each minute. and yet the novel task
is performed SO scientifically that
there is not the suggestion of a
draught in any part of these vast
rooms.
In this betterment of things in gen.
eral at the capitol, there has, as NAV
be imagined, been no special effort for
economy. The men in charge have
gone on the theory that there can be
nothing too good for a "billion-dollar
congress-. and the men who, as the
result OF the recent election, come
back to congress after an absence of
some years, will be very likely to open
their eyes in amazement. The TWEEN
tieth-century congressman sits in a
chair that cost $25: has his shoes
shined free of charge at a bootblack
stand that cost $55; and is served
with drinking water from coolers
which cost $26 apiece, and each of
which will hold SIT worth of min
eral water. The speaker of the house
of representatives has a new mahog-
any desk that cost $12O, and may rest
on a leather couch for which Uncle
Sam paid out $50. There are ninety
toilet rooms in the capitol. and four
teen bathtubs have been installed for
the use of congressman. These tubs
are all cut from blocks of solid mar
Bile, and are equipped with shower
apparatus and other up-to-date ad-
juncts.

Captured Fugitive.

Officer Frank Whitworth has returned from Izard county, Ar kansas, where he arrested and brought back Charles Boyd, who was indicted at the recent ses- sion of the Butler county grand jury on two charges. One charges him with incest with his daughter and the other charges him with having ravished the little girl. He was placed in jail in default of $1, 900 bond.
 To MT. Whitworth is due all the credit of bringing this man to justice. The grand jury in- dicted him and supposed that he was residing on Cane creek, in this county. Afterwards it was learned that he had. flown and the search was practically aban- doned when Mir. Whitworth took up the hunt, with the result that Boyd is now in jail. Poplar Bluff Citizen.

WHEN THE KIDNEYS ARE AILING. The Urgent Need of Prompt Restora- tive Measures is Something That Every One Should
 Understand.
"A Stitch in Time Saves Nine.''

Slight disorders in the kidneys or uri- nary organs are more serious than most people think. The first warning synp- toms should receive prompt medical treatment to ward off Bright's Disease or some other dangerous malady. When the kidneys are ailing and the symptoms become sufficiently pronounced to be noticeable the condition calls at once for prompt measures to stay the progress of the disease. Prickly Ash Bitters is the remedy needed. Taken on the ap- pearance of the first symptoms, such as pain in the back, puffiness under the eyes, irregularities in the urine, digestive disorders, it will save the victim incal- culable misery and suffering, mental torture and expense. Used at the begin ming of the trouble it cures quickly. Used in the more advanced stages it will win back health and strength as rapidly as circumstances will possibly permit.
 Accept no substitute. Insist on having
 the genuine Prickly Ash Bitters with the
 large figure in red on the front label. Sold at Drug Stores. $l.OO Per bottle.

While in the Capital Hotel barber shop a few days ago Gov. Davis was told that that a man bearing his name had been fined and sent to the county farm for a misdemeanof. The governor made a few inquiries among those in the shop as to the mans correct name, and when being convinced that his name was Jeff Davis issued instructions for his immediate pardon.
