More Protection for Children.
(From the Cleveland Leader.)

(From the Cleveland Leader.)
1t is unfortunate that under the
present system of government there is
no adequate means of protection for
children subjected to the torture
which is of the mind and heart rather
than of the body. Society has not yet
devised sufficient defenses against
heartless men and women who destroy
child life or blight it's best possibilities
by Indifference, neglect of duty and the
denial of the loving tenderness which
children crave and need. That is a
step still to be taken in the evolution
of humanity

The estate of George Washington,
after lying dormant in the Circuit Court
of Fairfax county. Va. for more than one
hundred years, was reopened Thursday
by the appointment of an administrator
for the undistributed assets. The APP
point.nent was made upon the applica-
zion of Lawrence Washington, of Alex
andria, and S. w. Washington, of
Charles Town. heirs-at-law of George
Washington. Roberto. Lee. OF Fair.
fax county, was appointed administra-
tor. He is grandson of Gen. Robert
E. Lee aud great-grandson OF Light
Horse Harry Lee. Gen. Washlngton's
chief of staff. The object of the pro-
ceedng is to recover lands in Ohio which
which were granted to Washington by
the British Government, and later by the
United States in recognition, of his mill
tary services in both governments. 1t is
hardly hoped by the heirs to recover the
specific tracts of land granted to Wash
ington. since these were, through mis-
take, subsequently, gr-nted to actual set
tiers upon them. But in default of such
recovery the heirs expect to obtain from
Congress sum of money equivalent to
their value. whether their value at the
time the grant to Washington or at the
present time is not known If the heirs
should be awarded by Congress the pres
ent value it would run up to hundreds OF
millions. as the site of the city OF Gin
cinnatti is embraced IN one of the grants.

Shake In A Bottle.

Now is the time when the doctor gets
busy, and the,patent medicine manutac-
turers reap the harvest, unless great care
is tafen to dress warmly and keep the
feet dry. This is the advice of an old
eminent authority. who says that Rheu-
matism and Kidney trouble weather is
here. and also tells what to do in case of
an attack.
Get from any good prescription phar-
macy one-haf ounce Fluid Extract DAN
delon, one ounce Compound Kargon.
three ounces Compound Syrup Sarsapa-
rilla. Mix by shaking in bottle and
take a teaspoonful after meals and at
bedtime.
Just try this simple homemade mix
ture at the first sign Of Rheumatism, or
if your back aches or you feel that the
kidneys are not acting just right. This
is said to be splendid kidney regulator,
and also certain remedy for all forms of
Rheumatism, which is caused by uric acid
in blood, which the kidneys fail to filter
out. Any one can easily prepare this at
home and at small cost.
Druggists in this town aud vicinity,
when shown the prescription, stated that
they can either supply these ingredients,
or, if our readers prefer. they will COM
pound the mixture for them.
