Republican nomination for county attor-

The Conquest of the Heart Of Sally

The Conquest of the Heart Of Sally B.
Forty years ago. daring surgeons
did not so often undertake to better
natures work, make joints where
none had been, remake organs that
had not fulfilled their functions.
Alvin Carter, despite his cheerful
ness, had ever silently rebelled against
his crutch. And when the idea was
born to him that he might have his leg
broken and made straight, he never
halted till he found surgeon willing
TO add his skill TO Alvin's money and
pluck.
Three years with scarcely a days
vacation had won for him promotion
and the confidence of officers as well
as of fellow employees. Thus Alvin
had the great eye and sympathy of the
governor himself behind his brave
venture into unfamiliar realms of
surgery. When Alvin came through
with two straight legs, the trifiing
shOrtness of one being corrected by a
high heel. he gladly accepted the di-
version of a trip to the Front while
he was learning TO walk on two feet
Fresh from those exciting scenes, he

The Scramble for Wealth.

II there is sad thing in the world.
1t Is the spectacle Of the men and
women who. in their mad scramble
for wealth, have crushed out Of their
lives sentiment and the love OF all
that Is beautiful and sublime. The
very process by which they seek to
win the means OF enjoyment kills the
faculties by which they can enjoy.
When the average man wins his
wealth he finds himself without the
power Of enjoyment. for the enjoying
side OF his nature is dead. He finds
to his sorrow that the straining, striv.
ing life is also a starving one.
