The readers of this paper will be
pleased to learn that there is at least
one dreadful disease that science has
been able to cure in all its stages, and
that is Catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure
is the only positive cure now known to
the medical fraternity. Catarrh be-
ing a constitutional disease, requires a
constitutional treatment. Halls Ca
tarrh Cure is taken internally, acts di-
rectly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces Of the system, thereby destroy
ing the foundation of the disease, and
giving the patient strength by building
up the constitution and assisting ma
ture in doing its work. The proprie-
tors have so much faith in its curative
powers that they offer One Hundred
Dollars for any case that it fails to
cure. Send for list Of testimonials.

PARENTS

who have children to send to school
had better look we'll into the mer-
it's of Shepherd College before
sending elsewhere, because our ia
cilities in every particular cannot
be equaled by other schools that
will charge you much higher rates
and yet give you inferior instruc-
ton. With a school like this con-
veniently located, there is no earth
ly excuse for well-to-do or even
moderately well-to.do parents to
let their sons and daughters grow
up in ignorance. Many of you
think that Shepherd College is on
ly teachers training school. 1t
is this, but it is much more. The
Normal Course is but one of many
courses of study offered in this
school. We can give your chill
dren a pretty well-rounded educa-
ton. We prepare them to enter
casually with advanced standing,
especially hereafter) the foremost
colleges and universities in the
land, where our students have
made and are making enviable rec
ords. We prepare your sons for
taking up civil, mining or electri-
cal engineering, the law, medicine,
or any of the professions, and give
them a good running start besides
Your daughters can become adopts
in vocal and instrumental music,
in elocution, and can take many
cultural subjects, such as litera-
ture, rhetoric, the languages (both
ancient and modern, } ethics, sociol-
ogy, ETC., etc.
People from other States who
have looked through our buildings
and inquired into the conditions of
admission and the courses of study
offered, have expressed themselves
as SURPRISED THAT SHEP-
HERD COLLEGES NOT JUST
SIMPLY OVERCROWDED with
students. The only explanation
that we can offer why this is not
the fact, is that our people are not
fully cognizant of these advantag-
es. Then there is doubtless a good
deal of Indifference on the part of
parents as to their children's edu-
cation. Since they (the parents)

There is nothing so pleasant as that
bright, cheerful, at-peace with the
world feeling when you sit down to
your breakfast. There is nothing so
conducive to good work and good re-
suits. The healthy man with healthy
mind and body is better fellow, bet
ter workman, better citizen than the
man or woman who is handicapped by
some disability, however slight. A
slight disorder of the stomach will de-
range your body, your thoughts and
your disposition. Get away from the
morbidness and the blues. Keep your
stomach in tune and both your brain
and body will respond. Little indis-
cretions Of overeating can be easily
corrected and you will be surprised to
see how much better man you are. Try

SUIT has been brought IN tne cir
cult court of Fayette county by State
Tax Commissioner G. W. Dillon, the
object of which is the removal from
Office OF Assessors ST. Carter and B. E.
Bart. Under the new tax laws, the
State Tax Commissioner is charged with
duty Of supervising the assessment the
ofproperty for taxation, and In carry.
ing out what he conceived to be his du-
ty under the law, Mr.. Dillon recently
went to Fayette county to look into
the matter Of assessing the leasehold
estates of tho county. He found that
the assessors had placed a valuation
upon them of $506,000. Mr.. Dillon
estimate Of the value of the leaseholds
is S., 6S5 900, and he instructed the
assessors to raise them to these figures.
They refused to do 30, and 30 he
brings suit to Gust them from Office.
The assessors at first refused to assess
the leaseholds at all, and it was only
when threatened with legal proceed.
ings that they finally listed them at
the low figure named. In his petition
asking for the removal Of the officers
Mr.. Dillon alleges that the assessors
have wilfully and fraudulently dis.
regarded the law and violated their
oath Of Office, and that they were in.
fuencsd to do so by the owners Of the
property.
This action OF Mr.. Dillon is most
patriotic and shows him to be "a fear
less citizen and an official who has a
high sense of responsibility in dis.
charging the duties of his Office. He
is resident of Fayette county, and
knows the enormous value OF the lease
holds held by the rich coal companies.
The law requires that they be assessed
and taxed, and because he means to
have the law carried out and because
it is just and equitable that this spe.
cies of property should be on the same
footing as other property, he is using
all his personal and official power to
this end. The coal men, of course,
are fighting him 6ercely, and he is
having an opposition that is bitter and
powerful. We hope he may stand BY
his guns, however, for it is a matter
that deeply affects the whole people.
The thing that will eventually make
West Virginia's new tax laws win
their way ia the fact that they assess
oil classes of property alike. We
commend the Board of Public Works
for it's efforts to see that tits is done
without fear or favor.

have gotten along tolerably we'll in
the world with a limited education,
they imagine their SONS and daugh-
tiers will be able to do likewise /;
but the law of human progress re-
quires that our SONS and daughters,
in order to have equal opportuni-
ties with us, must have an educa.
ton superior to ours. Lack of a
good education in this day means
lack of opportunity to make of life
success. Parents who don't
make the best possible effort in
this direction for their children,
handicap them for life and rob
them of the heritage due them, and
society of their usefulness. You
cannot afford to neglect opportun-
tiles so richly offered to you free
at the hands of the State in this
school.
But many parents have regard
for only their sons education,
thinking that somehow their
daughters will get along without it.
Don't be misled in this particular.
Our girls in order to make them
attractive and independent need
education and its refining influences
just as much as our boys. This is
really aOoman'S age, and girls have
to have the very best that schools
can give them in order to take
their proper place in society. The
girl of to-day must know how to
do things-how to support herself
if need be and how to run house
hold successfully. This ability
liberal education alone can give
her. Many young women have
already laid the foundation of ca
reers Of usefulness here and made
themselves self-supporting. Your
daughters can do likewise. If you
do your duty by them, you will
give them the opportunity: you
will send them here to school.

REPUBLICAN orators will probably
have a hard time explaining why IN
these booming times Of prosperity
wheat is down to 65 cents a bushel
and how the farmers can prosper al
auch a price while everything they
have to buy is at top notch.
The fact is, there is great. deal OF
humbug about this alleged prosperity
The unprecedentedly high cost Of liv-
ing is a great hardship on millions OF
people whose income has not been
correspondlngly increased, and it Is a
bitter struggle for them to make ends
meet.
THE trusts and the protected mo-
nopolies and bene6ciaries are about
the only class that gets much good
from the present era Of prosperity.

The Democrats Of the first district
have nominated Hon. Thos. s. Riley,
of Wheeling, as their candidate for
Congress. He is one of the ablest
men in the district, a man Of high in
tegrity and Democrat whose In
ffuence for his party has always been
helpful. AS Acknowledgement for
West Virginia under the last Demo
cratic administration Mr.. Riley made
fine record and was popular off,
cial. An intimate acquaintance with
him for many years enables ms. to say
in all honesty that we believe there
is no straighter or more honorable
man in the State, and if elected he
would be a credit to his district and
his State. We hope he may win, for
he is a man, every inch of him.
THE railroads of the East are yield
ing to public opinion, and the B. &
o. has followed the lead of the Penn.
sylvania and announced that it will
sell thousand mile books at 500, good
for the whole family. This is hight,
and the railroads are to be commend
ed for making the reduction.
But why should the man who buys
a trip ticket pay more than the fellow
who can afford mileage book2 1t
dosen't cost the railroads any more
to haul him, and if there is a fair
profit in carrying the one passenger
there must be in carrying the other.
What the people ought to have. and
what they are going to get, is straight
two-cent fare. The member of the
next Legislature Of West Virginia
who opposes this will commit politi-
cal suicide.
