WARNING or THE SOUL.
Writer'S Desires Expressed in Most
Beautiful Pross Verse.

Through every grass-blade in the

bush and tree; through the song

with all the energy the sunbeams had
poured unwearicd on the earth since
Sesostris was conscious of them on the
ancient sands; with all the life that
had been lived by vigorous man and
beauteous woman since first in dearest
Greece the dream of the gods was
woven; with all the soul-life that had
flowed long stream down to mel
prayed that ! might have a soul more
than equal to, far beyond my concep-
ton of those things of the past, the
present, and the fullness of all life;
not only equal to these, but beyond,
higher and more powerful than
could imagine: that l might take from
all their energy, grandeur, and beauty,
and gather 1t unto me; that my soul
might be more than the cosmos of life.

whose nerves are very sensitive, as is
often the case with talented persons.
There is a simple, easy way to get rid
of coffee evils and Tenn. ladys ex-
perience along these lines is worth

Almost from the beginning OF the
use of coffee it hurt my stomach. By
the time l was fifteen / was almost a
nervous wreck, nerves all unstrung, no
strength to endure the most trivial
thing, either work or fun.
There was scarcely anything
could eat that would agree with me.

more trouble than it was worth. I

water, but there was so little food

the greatest parade of a religious char

brought to a close Sunday the ceme-
terry celebration of the founding of the
Roman Catholic diocese of Boston,
which was begun on Wednesday last.
1t is estimated that fully 10000 men,
representing the Holy Name Societies
of the Roman Catholic churches in the
five counties which constitute the did,
cese, with over $50 priests, participant
ed, marching to the music of 100 bands.

The day was begun with solemn
pontifical mass at the cathedral of the
Holy Cross, with Archbishop O'Connell
as celebrant, and Cardinal Gibbons oc-

Says He Never Said Old Sold
iers Deserved No More
Than Other Citizens.
KUHN ANSWERS BACK.
SAID OLD SOLDIERS OF HENRY
COUNTY FURNISHED HIM WITH
EVIDENCE NOT EASILY DIS.
PUTED.

Hagerstown, Ind, Nov. I'm the
most emphatic manner, Judge Barn
ard, the candidate for congress. de-
nounced as maliciously false certain
statements contained in a letter writ
ten by T. H. Kuhn. the democratic can
didate, and sent to old soldiers over
the Sixth district.
The statement which Judge Barnard
pronounces as unqualitiedly false is
that some years ago, when Barnard
was a candidate for judge of the Henry
circuit court, his opponent was an ole
soldier; that Barnard went about over
the county saying old soldiers deserv
ed no more than other citizens and
that they had already received all they
ought to have.
Barnard's speech before a large aud
fence sizzled with indignation wheT
he pronounced the charge a deliberate
lie. All old soldiers in this section
have received this letter and unite in
resenting the attempt to secure Their
votes. Judge Barnard declared his
friendship for old soldiers and said the
best that was possible to be obtained
for them was none too good.
