After reading some hundreds of
opinions as to the cause of Mr.. Bryan
defeat, the concensus seems to be that
his ideals are too high to be appre-

that he is too good to be trusted with
the executive administration of the
government. Not literally, as in the
olden time, but figuratively, the world
continues to stone its prophets and
cruelty its saviors.

How to Prepare Simple Mix
ture to Overcome Disease.


To relieve the worst forms
of Rheumatism, take a tea.
spoonful of the following mix.
ture after each meal and at
bedtime:
Fluid Extract Dandelion,
One-half ounce; Compound
Kargon, one ounce; Compound
Syrup Sarsaparilla, three
ounces.
These harmless ingredients
can be obtained from our
home druggists, and are cas-
lily mixed by shaking them
we'll in a bottle. Relief is
generally felt from the first
few doses.
This prescription, states a
well. known authority in a
Cleveland morning paper,
forces the clogged.up, mac.
tive kidneys to filter and
strain from the blood the
poisonous waste matter and
uric acid, which causes Rheu.
matism.
As Rheumatism is not only
the most painful and tortur.
GUS disease, but dangerous TO
life, this simple recipe will no
doubt be greatly valued by
many sufferers here at home,
who should at once prepare
the mixture to get this relief.
1t is said that a person who
would take this prescription
regularly, a dose or two daily
or even a few times a week,
would never have serious
Kidney or Urinary disorders
or Rheumatism.
Cut this out and preserve
1t. Good Rheumatism pres.
criptions which really relieve
are scarce, indeed and when
you need it, you want it bad
ly. Our druggists here say
they will either supply these
ingredients or make the mix
ture ready to take, If any OF
our readers so prefer.

The following paragraph
in the Presidents message
aroused the animosity OF a
large number Of persons
throughout the country and
was also the basis for the
statement that President
Roosevelt wanted another
term:
I'VE are trying to secure
equal opportunity for all; and
the struggle for honesty is
the same whether it is made
on behalf of one set of men or
another. In the interest of
the small settlers and land
owners, and against the en-
Uttered opposition of wealthy
owners Of huge ilocks of
wandering sheep, or of cor.
porations desiring to rob the
people of coal and timber, we
strive TO put an end TO the
theft of public land in the
west. When we do this and
protest against the action OF
all men, whether in public or
in private life, who either take
part in or refuse TO stop such
theft, we are really engaged
in the same policy as when we
endeavored to put Il stop 10
rebates or to prevent the up
growth Of uncontrolled mon
opolies. Our effort is simply
to enforce the principles OF
common honesty and common
sense. 1t would indeed be
ill for the country should
there be any hat in our
work."

It's Bad Manners!

Columbia Mo. Feb. g.
When a husband goes to bed
with a well-flled jug of wills
ky under the pillow and
drinks it all himself, he may
be guilty of bad manners in
not permitting his wife to join
in emptying the jug, but he
has not been guilty OF drunk
enness sufficiently to furnish
grounds for divorce, accord
ing to the ruling of Judge E.
W. Hinton in the Boone Coun.
ty Circuit Court yesterday.
The court will not dissolve
the bonds of matrimony in
such cases, except upon proof
of habitual drunkenness. One
particular instance does not
prove the habit.
The case that brought about
the opinion was that of Lula
against William Greenberry
Acton.
Much evidence was pro-
duced to prove that William
Greenberry Acton put a Jug
OF Bourbon under the pillow.
William Greenberry Acton
and his attorney asserted that
the defendant had not drunk
all of the whisky, and there
was only one such incident,
anyway.

Tess that he drank the Jug of
whisky all by himself.
1t was then that Judge Hin.

servation that even If the hus-
band had consumed the whole
OF the jugs contents, which
was not at all clear, it did not
furnish grounds for granting
q divorce, but merely proved
his bad manners in not divid.

Not Gaining ANY.

Long division, a writer in
the New York Sun declares,
is the Waterloo OF most of the
middle.aged women who apply
for city positions. One wo.
man took some time off from
work TO learn how TO do long
division. The teacher told
her a million times, more or
less, that when the -divisor
would not 60 into the dividend
she must put a cipher in the
answer.
One day the teacher come
along and looked over her
shoulder and saw fourteen or
fifteen ciphers in the result,
while the correct answer could
not have had more than three
figures in it. The teacher
was patient with Ler, and ask
ed her where she got all those
ciphers.
"Why," she said, looking
slightly worried, "you told
me that when tie division
wouldn't 60 to put down a clip
her, and it wouldn't go all
these times, and I haven't got
to the end yet, and don't see
as I'm gaining on il a bit"

"a NATION OF VILLAGERS. 4"
American Economies Seen Through
English Eyes.

G. Bernard Shaw. In Everybody's
Eighteen years ago the London Fabian
Society, in a book entitled Fabian Es-
says" called attention to the trust devel-
opment in American industry and ex-
planned its significance. The writer OF the
essay directed to this point, the late Will
liam Clarke, had no idea that there was
anything reconcile in the industrial phe-
nomenon he dealt with. or that the exist
ence and operations of the Standard OF,
trust were a terrible discovery OF his own.
The facts were not rev TO me. nor to any
of the writer's with whom was associated
as editor of the essays.
What Clarke, though he had Travelled
and lectured in America, did not fully
realize was the stupendous denseness of
the Americans ignorance of their own
Countrywide childishness which enables
them to remain simple New England vii
layers in the complicated hustle of New
York and Chicago, never revising their
ideas. never charging their consciousness.
never losing their interest in the ideals OF
the Pilgrim Fathers.
A year or tive ago. however, II suddenly
occurred to them that the village shop
keeper was in difficulties. To their SYM
pathetic inquiries he replied that the
trust was to blame. And 80 the simple
villagers said: How wicked. let us put
the trust In the stocks at once" And
that is what they are trying to do at pres
ent, not having yet noticed that the trust
Is too strong. the stocks too small. and

Sentiment in Business,
From Success Magazine.

1 know there is not much sentiment in
our present order OF business. Yet we
will never call out the fine heroisms of
men until business in some way has been
made the perpetual body of the noblest
sentiment Of the heart. Business ought
to be made into a working form for the
Golden Rule. Even as things are, we
sometimes hear Of a man who does what
he can to order his business in the light
Of this lofty ideal In the depression
Of 1893 a manufacturer in the west de-
termined not to let the hard times break
up his working force his economic family
He had scores Of men and women work.
ing for him. He could have shut down
and let these workers walk the hopeless
streets-these workers who had built I'D a
fortune for him. He could have given
them over to an enforced idIeness to the
fang of want or the worse fang OF public
charity.
But this business man. with a light on
him from the Mount Of Olives, this un-
worldly wise man, went right on with his
factory. losing money with open eyes for
a year. He sacrificed goods, he mort
gagged property. he borrowed money. that
he might see his men through the perilous
crisis. This Is practical loving; this is
religion in action.
