A good honest. sQuare-deal medicine Of

Medical Discovery. Ii still enjoys an inn
mense sale, while most of the prepara-
tionS that have come into prominence IN
the earlier period of its popularity have
gone by the board and are never more
heard of. There must be some reason for
this longtime popularity and that is to
be found in its superior merits. When
once given a fair trial for weak stomach,
or for liver and blood affections, its supe-
rior curative qualities are soon manifest;
hence it has survived and grown in pop
ular favor. while scores of less merltoriouS
articles have suddenly flashed into favor
for brief period and then been as soon
forgotten.

Cleveland MoOreland.
Darling auEel how we ziss you
Since you left US AL alone.
Left ~ with the greatest sorrow
We have ever. ever known


On Wednesday morning, Jan. 2and,
the angel of death visited the home
of Mr.. and Mrs. T. NJ. Moreland, and
carried away to that celestial home
above their son, Cleavland aged IS
years, II months and II days. His
Illness, pneumonia, was of short du-
ration, and although suffering at
times was intense he bore it patiently
and all that physician and loving
hands could do was done, but he
passed away in perfect serenity. OH
that we could fathom the mysteries
OF death and see why our loved one
was taken away. It seems almost un-
bearable for us hut we know that God
in His infinite wisdom knows best
and his removal from earth was only
thS fulfilment of some divine purpose.
Cleavie is gone but will not be forgot
| ten. His place can never be filed in
our home and especially in hia. Nov,
when we go to auntie's, Obi how
/ lonely we will feel when we meet the
| other faces and his face to never see.
/ We often wonder in our blindness
why he should be taken away from
us just as he was budding into man
hood, but when life's rough road is
ended and we meet him on that
/ shore, we will know then why our
Cleavie could no longer with US stay.
A new made grave in Gray's quiet
grave yard marks the place where
our de~ Oaeavie's form must repose
In the mysterious slumber OF death
It'll the dearee of God declaring thG
dawn of the resurrection and the end
OF time is borne on angels wings from
the crystal battlements of heaven
May God comfort the mother, father
brothers and sisters in this sad aff1ic-
| tion is our sincere wish and prayer

General StoesseI Convicted.

The Russian courtmartial last week
convicted General Stoessel, the de-
fender Of Port Arthur during the Rus
so-Japanese war, on charge of I'M
necessarily surrendering the fortress
and of cowardice. The conviction
carries a sentence of death, which is
a tradition if not law III that coun-
try, but the court recommended to
the Emperor a communication to ten
years imprisonment in fortress.
This viii almost certainly be needed
by the Gar who will also probably
pardon him altogether High officers
of both the Russian and Japanese
armies have interceded in General
StoesseIs behalf before and during
the trial, but the military commission
was deaf to their sympathies.

Representative II. F. Broyles of the

resigned the Craftsmanship of the
House committee on eIeemOsenary
institutions The resignation was
based upon the action of the House
in making sharp cut in amount re-
commended to be appropriated for
the support of the insane asylum
after the committees figures had
been similarly trimmed in several
other instances. It seemed to DR..
Brovles that the best efforts of his
committee in caring for the institu-
tions in its charge were out Of har-
monv with the sentiment of the
House. rendering further tenure of the
position undesirable and Improbable.
Mr. Morrison, chairman of the appro-
priations committee, also resigned
that position on account Of much
criticism of his committee, but later
information states that the commit
/ tees held consultation, resulting in
the withdrawal of both designations,
and the gentlemen remain at their
