says to every democrat in every pre-
cinct in the United States of America:
Sec to 1t that your opinion Is regis
tered and that your sentiment finds en-
preston in the councils of the demo-
cratic party See to 1t that the opln-
ion and the purpose of the majority OF
democrats in every precinct Is en-
pressed in resolutions and given force
in explicit instructions to delegates
representing that precinct. Then let
the county conventions instruct their
delegates to the STAGE convention ana
let the state convention instruct It's
delegates to the national convention.
Let the voice of democracy be heard
all along the line, and when the ma
jority shall rule then the best results
for the party and the country will have
been accomplished"

He Reused Her;

Philetus M. Helfer has established
college among the prisoners at Au-
burn, N. Y, the faculty being compos-
ed of convicts who are graduates OF
Oxford, Harvard, Yale and other
great universities.
Discussing his odd college scheme
recently, Mr.. Helfer said:
"But anything is good for convicts
that interests, cheers and encourages
them. Discourage them, scorn them
nag at them, and you rouse the latent
evil in them as it was reused the other
day in a frail and beautiful New York
typewriter girl"
'"This refined creature worked for a
rather cranky old broker. The broker
found a good deal of unjust fault with
her, but she was gentle and patient
and put up with him in silence.

up in a quite insupportable humor.
"Look at my desk" he roared. All

NERVOUS, FLY KITES,

Or. J. B. Mckenzie Of New York Puts
kiteflyins Ahead of Az Medical
Remedies-No other Form of Mild
Outdoor Activity So Beneficial, He
Declares.
Kitefyiny in tho early morning Is
the latest cure for neurasthenia, the
net complaint of faded society men and
women. 1t is advocated by DR.. j. b.
Mckenzie OF New York, who asserts
that 1t provides both the mental diver
sion and physical exercise that are es-
sential to cure.
One may plunge into the gay life OF
society with impunity, DR.. Mckenzie
declares, with no fear of suffering
from dlsordered nerves II this treat
ment is followed. He says that one
hour in the open air before breakfast
flying a kite Is better than all the rem
edies known to medical science. DE-.
Mckenzie explained his theory to a
New York American reporter the other
night.
physicians have been prescribing
open air exercise for tired and worn
nerves for years. he said, "but while
outdoor exercise is certainly beneficial
they have neglected most important
point-that OF insuring similarly bene-
fetal exercise for the mind.
III good results are to be obtained
from outdoor exercise in cases OF neu-
rasthenia, 1t Is imperative that tho
mind must have the same relaxation
as the body.
with this in view, have worked
out my theory of kitehying as cure
for patients suffering from the nervous
Ills brought on by long protracted In
diligence in the nerve racking func-
lions of society. Probably any other
exercise which entailed the same
chance for mental rest and change and
the same amount Of physical exercise
would answer the purpose as well, but
I have chosen the kite as perhaps the
best suited in every respect to produce
the desired effect
az have not put my theory to real
practical test, but am confident that
the kite cure will be decided success.
II would advise patients suffering
from neurasthenic troubles to go into
the parks with kites, which they can
spend an hour daily in flying. They
can 20 alone or In party, us they
| please. The effect Of merry chat at
sunrise in the open air on topics Of
outdoor interest would be OF beneh-
cial nature. In two weeks l believe
that almost any ordinary case OF In
somnia or other nervous affection
could be cured.
"You may ask me why have chosen
the kite as cure for these maladies.
| You want to know why half mile or
mile constitutional in the morning
would not be just as effective. Well,
| I will tell you. A man walks mechan-
ically. His mind is free to dwell upon
what subjects it pleases. He may
think about dinners or dances or may
worry about finance, but still he keeps
on walking automatically. That Is just
the trouble with early walks. They
are OF no value to the .neurasthenic pa
tient unless his or her mind Is taken
away from the customary events OF
daily life,. from the worries and cares
Of the day.
"Kitefying, while 1t gives the same
opportunity for physical exercise as
walk, requires the attention, OF the
patient 1t needs close watching and
has Just enough mild excitement con-
nected with it to hold the attention Of
the patient"

Veterans DuInu Fast.

More pensioners died during the
past year than fought on either side
at the famous battle of Shiloh In
1862. This was the statement
made in the house when the $780,
600, 900 general pension bill was
up for passage.
1t was shown that As, 76s names
had been stricken from the nations
roll by death. OF this number, 31,-
20l were Civil war veterans. It
was predicted that in nine years
Civil War veterans will be as
scarce az are Mexican war veterans
today.
The McCumber act, which puts
the soldiers on the pension roll ac-
cording to age, without examina
ton, increased the annual pension
roll over els, 900, 600.
In 1905 there we're ,0o4 900 PEN
sionsrs, the highest number ever
known, but the next year this
dwindlsd TO 9s5, 900, and notwith-
standing the increase during the
last year on account of the Nc
Cumber bill, the number went
down to 967,37l. This number is
now the smallest since 1898.

Commencement Exercises.

The school term of the indie.
pendent School District OF Ceredo
for the years l907-s has passed
beyond the summit and nothing re-
mains but the semblance of the
fact that it has been one of the most
successful terms IN the history Of
the district. While there were not
as many graduates this season
as on former occasions, yet many
have been prepared to such degree
that they will receive their sheep
skin next year. Hundreds who sue
cessfully passed the examinations
received their promotion cards with
anxious and fast beating hearts,
while those who failed to come up
to the requirements of the schools
were retained in the same grade for
another season.
The exercises of the Ceredo- Ken
ova schools began with the annual
sermon to the graduating class, This
was followed with appropriate exer-
cises Tuesday afternoon, May 10,
by Miss Leah Harris Primary class
at the kenova building.
On Wednesday afternoon the par
ents of the two towns were invited
to be present, that day being termed
"parents' day" at both buildings.
On that afternoon besides pleasing
cantatas works in art and other
studies of the pupils were placed on
exhibition in order that the patrons
of the schools might see the prog
ress tue children have made the past
term. AT both places the exercises
were witnessed by large numbers of
people, each room being filled to it's
utmost capacity.
Thursday evening the Eighth
grade Of the two buildings held forth
at Wright's hall. This grade of
both schools consolidated in render
ing "The National Flower" The
manner in which the operetta was
rendered showed tina, the trying
hours of rehearsal had not been in
vain. So accurate and to tie dot
did each one respond it seemed
as though the whole affair were
worked with metronome.
Miss w. May Williams presented
the Ceredo class for promotion to
the High school while Prof. K. o.
Saunders introduced the Kenova
class. In nice and well worded
address Supt. q. Otto Grady pre-
sented each member of the class
with a certificate which entities the
holder thereof to enter the High
school next year.
Friday night the exercises culmi-
mated when the High school render.

school sang chorus, "Song Of

actment of the drama. Miss Anna

Miss Fern Wright, for graduation,
Supt. Grady presented the gradu-
ate with a diploma, and the school
sang another chorus, "Anchored. 4"
