why you should give them to me: Not
counting six years devoted to the ac-
Quirement Of an education, four years
passed in performing the duties Of a
notary and seven years as an employee
of the government, have worked ten
bours a day for twenty years. That
makes 1900 hours During those TWEEN
ty years | wrote 400 volumes and 35
plays. OF each Of the 400 volumes an
average of 1000 copies have been
printed and sold at francs each. The
30 plays have each been performed on
an average 100 times. My books
save produced 11,S53,6OO francs; my
plays have produced 6,36O,6OO francs.
Taking 8 francs day as the average
pay of a workingman, and as there are
300, working days in the year, my
books have paid for twenty years the
wages Of CO.. people and my plays the
wages for ten years Of BAT people But
the last figure must be multiplied by 8
to include the provinces, making 1,O41,
and adding 20 for the ushers, chiefs of

all these years, not counting Belgian

to be one Of Cupid's strongest cards.

were heaped upon the unlucky plant

strument Of the death Of Baldur the
Beautiful, who was beloved by all the
gods except Loki. the mischief maker.

connive at ways to put Baldur out OF
the way.
But while the sorrowing gods were
heaping curses upon the plant the god
dess Of love stopped them and. catch.

Baldur, exhorted them all in memory
Of the bright. beautiful. gentle god to

"Baldur IL dead. indeed" she said

spirit is love. Let us use the very

SCIENCE OF NERVOUS SYSTEM AND EYES.
The Relation Of the Eyes to the General Health.

There Is no more noteworthy incl
dent in the progress OF civilization than
the tremendous addition in recent years
to the amount OF work habitually per-
formed by our organs of vision. as a
result Of schools and the enormous out
put Of the modern printing press
largely read by artificial light. No
other function of the body has been
subjected to 80 great a change Of work
and stimulus: so 1t Is but natural that
large proportion of our population
should suffer from the effects Of eye
strain. Defective eyes are almost as
common as defective teeth, and exert
far more deleterious influence upon
the general health than is commonly
known.
How III Effects Are Produced.
Hyperopia a congenital defect Of the
eye) is OF very common occurrence and
affords a marked example OF nervous
strain or exhaustion resulting from the
constant overuse OF the eye nerves and
muscles in the effort to meet the de.
| mand for good vision which all eyei
possess. This effort is oft-times un.
consciously exerted; and while good
vision may be maintained, yet 1t Is al
tremendous expenditure OF nervous
force which may refiexly affect thu
whole nervous system, causing either
symptoms of irritation or exhaustion
which may exhibit as any Of the fol
lowing disorders, viz: Nervousness
chronic headaches. insomnia. braii

JUNIOR PROM
LAST NIGHT

The Junior Prom given at the Nor
NAL last night was one OF the distinc-
tive society successes of the season.
This is the first of a series Of society
events that may be expected from time
to time now that the school has a flt-
ting place to gather for social pur-
poses.
Last night was really the formal
opening of the new auditorium for the
Lewiston public and that portion Of
the building was shown up beautifully
by the tasteful and artistic decorations.
The guests were met in the lower
hall last evening by members Of the
Junior class and directed through the
building to the head OF the stairs on
the second floor where President and
Mrs. Black assisted by Misses Urch
and Kettenbach acted as the reception
committee.

gressional committee at Poplar
Bluff Monday to elect a demo-
cratic nominee by the primary
plan and ordered a general pri-
mary election in all counties in
the district to be held on Satur-
day, May %. We indorse the
committees action-the primary
is the proper plan. The bosses
can't hide the "pea" in primary
like they can in a convention,
thereby thwarting the will Of a
majority. The candidate that
was instrumental in bringing
about the primary should have
the hearty support of all good
democrats, because he has shown
that he is not afraid TO come out
in the open and present his claims
to the plain people, The candid
ate that does this will have ouI

Some Words of Justice.

As there are quite a number Of rumors
throughout the county relative to the
failure of Nunnelee & Randel, | feel
that it would be but an act of justice
fQT me to make an explanation through
the papers OF the county as to the real
facts relative to the failure of this firm
as have found them from what per-
sonally know myself, and what l have
gathered from the books of the busi-
ness.
From the books, and from observa-
tion on my part, have found that the
financial troubles of the firm began
shortly after they entered into business,
and the cause of the same was not by
direct fault of either Mr.. Nunnelee or
Mr.. Randel, but at that time they sui
fered quite heavy loss, and since that
time they continued the business until
the failure with the hope, suppose, of
finally getting over their difficulties.
The books show that each of these part
ners invested $t733.30 in the business,
the greater part of which money was
raised by mortgaging their respective
real estate.
At the time Of their assignment
was present, representing quite num-
Der of their creditors, and took part in
all the proceedings. The creditors ap-
pointed me, together with w. II. s.
Miles, to wind up the business for them.
AT that meeting Nunnelee e. Randel
made. a statement to their creditors
showing less than Si00 difference be-
tween their assets and liabilities, al
though by reason CT having to sell the
goods at a discount, and because some
OF the accounts are not good, the cred
itors will suffer quite a loss. Also, at
that meeting Nunnelee G Randel made
a statement Of all their property, real
and personal, outside of the business,
and offered to turn the same over to
their creditors. The creditors, OF their
own free will, and because, as they said,
OF the fairness of Nunnelee & Randel,
refused to take any deed to their homes,
and told them they could retain their
homes and separate personal property
In no place is there any sign OF either OF
them ever having decided any OF their
land to their wives. Nowhere in the
books, which haYe examined, navel
found any sign Of an intention to de-
fraud their creditors or any one else,
and from ali my observations do not
believe that either of these parties
came out Of this business with anything
except that property which they offered
to their creditors and which their cred
itors permitted them TO retain.
/ desire to say that in this matter
represent only the creditors. | make
this statement because | feel it to be
but mere act Of justice to Nunnelee &
Randel, because | feel that in view Of
the many rumors the people ought u
know the true facts, and because | fee
that am merely doing what any gooc
citizen ought to do--that is, TO defenC
the honor and reputation of his fellow
man whenever the same is in danger.

The office of sheriff is one OF the
few that the law permits the

been sheriff before his present
term, but has never succeeded
himself, and he asks the office
again at the hands of the voters,
knowing that it will end his term
If he is again successful.
He is a native of Ripley coun-

has spent the greater part Of his
life here, being educated in the
schools of the county. His age
is 43 years. He is married and
has a family, having eight child

| in all. He has made a very CON-
pentant and satisfactory official
and needs no endorsement at our
