An Anecdote of Shelley.

The poet Shelley tells an amusing
story OF the influence that language
"hard to be understood" exercises on
the vulgar mind. Walking near Covent
Garden, London, he accidentally JOS
tied against an Irish navy, who, being
In a ~quarrelsome mood, seemed in
clined to attack the poet. A crowd of
ragged sympathizers began to gather,
when Shelley, calmly facing them, de-
liberately pronounced:
II have put my hand into the ham,
per. I have looked on the sacred bar
ley. I have eaten out Of the drum. I
have drunk and am well pleased. I
have said Knox Ompax,' and it is fin
ished."
The effect was magical. The aston
sshed Irishman fell back. His friends
began to question him. what bar
ley" Where's the hamper?" what
have you been drinking" and Shelley
walked away unmolested.

In 1897 I had a stomach disease.
Some physicians said Dyspepsia, some
Consumption. One said I would not live
until Spring. For four years I existed
on boiled milk, soda biscuits, and
doctors prescriptions. I could not
digest anything I ate, then I picked up
one of your Almanacs and it happened
to be my life saver. I bought a ffty-cent
bottle Of KODOL and the benefit I re-
ceived from that bottle all the gold in

FALL OF THE DISPENSARY.

After fourteen years full Of troubl.
and graft, Senator Tillman's pet scheme
has been voted out. The South Caro-.
lima state ~dispensary did not a little
net income, but it also yielded a big
crop of scandals, until the State legis.
lature decided to end its course, and to
adopt instead either county dispense
ries or prohibition.
It was Senator Tillman's force and
magnetism-his strong personality
that kept it alive, even after all felt
hat it could not endure. AL knew
that liquors could not be bought in
great quantities for the State without
the Intervention of graft, but many hes
itated because Mr.. T!llman stood brave
~ by his pet measure. He finally
yielded to some extent to public senti-
ment, and then the state dispensary
fell, never to reappear in a state in this
country. South Carolina could not keep
graft out of it, and no other State could
do any better.
County dispensaries are perhaps feas-
1ble because they purchase liquors in
smaller quantities, and yet in them rot
tenness is by no means unknown. How
ever, local option by counties seems to
be an acceptable plan for settling a
vexed problem. It enables wheng granted
in all its fullness the people Of a county
to say whether they will have prohibi-
ton, licensed saloons Or a county dis
pensary, and a vote can undo what has
been established. A vote is an
ascertainment of the will of sovereigns,
and as such it outranks all other forms
Of neighborhood settlement.

COST OF The PHILIPPINES.

There are two things that the Repub.
lican party strives to keep secret, name
1y, the cost to the people of the Dingley
tariff, and the cost to the people of the
Philippines. Both are conducted in an
indirect manner, especially the tariff
spoliation scheme, and it is impossible
to say what the extent of the taxation
mous-that al least ten dollars go into
private pockets to one that goes into
the treasury.
Theacost of the Philippines is put by
the annual charge at present is fifty
million dollars. We get nothing of
valuetin return. The trade to and from
the islands is insignificant, and it is not
increasing to any appreciable extent.
If all b facts were brought outfit the
people were frankly told how little they
are getting from the Philippines, and
how much tina little costs, a sentiment
would quickly spring up in favor of
getting rid of the islands.
Senator Clay. Of Georgia, is trying to
ascertain the cost of the Philippines to
this country, but the administration is
to pigeon-hole it, INC no
doubt they will succeed. The two sub
jects are sore ones to the Republicans,
and they are determined to keep from
the people the cost of either to the peo-
pie.
