OBITUARY.
Vilena Rathburn Kingsland, wife Of
Ira Kingsland, passed away Tuesday,
July 21st. She was born in Bristol,
Nov. IA, 1S47, daughter Of George and
Sallie Rathburn. On Dec. 30, 1865, she
| was married at Monkton to Ira Kings
land, and 80 years of their union were
spent in Bridport. In her early married
life she united with the Methodist
church, and since that time her allie
glance has never wavered. Mrs. Kings
lands life was an eventful one and many
times she has walked hand in hand with
sorrow. Her child died in infancy. Once
her home was burned. Her father and
mother were taken away, and in 1901
her husband suffered a severe shock of
paralysis. Subsequent attacks left him
| helpless. Owing to rheumatism, she
could not walk without the aid of
crutches ~ years ago. and for eight
years she had been confined TO wheel
chair. Finding it difficult to procure
suitable help, and deprived Of the kind
attention of her husband, she decided to
close her house and pass her remaining
days with old friends. For eight months
| they have been in the family OF Mr.. and
Mrs. James Swinton, where tender
hands cared for the frail body until all
was over. Last March she Joined the
"Shut-in" society, and derived extreme
comfort from the letters and cards
received. 1t has been remarked that
never, while at her last home, was she
heard to murmur at her lot. Whether
loss, pain or death, it was accepted with
resignation. The funeral was held at the
Swinton home Thursday, July 23rd.
Friends and neighbors contributed lovely
flowers and the Ladies' Aid of the
Methodist church presented beautiful
pillow. According to her request, the
officiating clergyman was Rev. Mr..
Slocum, former pastor.

Some of these people are skilled in all

COFFEE DRINKING.

A Doctor Says 1t Weakens the Heart.
"In my opinion" says a wsll-known
German physician, mo one can truth
fully say coffee agrees with him, as IL
has long since been proven that caffeine.
contained in coffee, Is an injurious,
poisonous substance which weakens and
degenerates the heart muscles.
For this reason the regular use OF
coffee, soon or late. causes a condition
of undernourishment, which leads TO
various kinds OF organic disease.
Convinced OF this fact, I have often
sought for some healthful beverage to
use instead OF coffee. At last / found
the thing desired in Postum. Having
had occasion to forbid people using
coffee, whose hearts were affected. L
have recommended Postum as a bev-
erage, since 1t is free from all injurious
or exciting substances. / know this
from results in my own family. and

Invites Disaster.


A sort of personal political doctrine
has supplanted original party policy
and principles; the solemn declarations
Of Republican platforms are violated
with impunity, and the principle Of
protection to American industry no
longer commands decent respect among
n large element of Republicans. To an
extent the party has stolen the doc
trine upon which the Democratic party
has gone to ignominsous defeat with Il
single exception in forty years, and il
may possibly succeed in ENGRAVING that
doctrine into the party expression Of
faith at the coming national conven-
ton. Free-Trade Is no longer held TO
be the instrument of disaster, the les
sons of experience having been forgot
ten. The cry is for the bars to be ,et
down; American labor has no claims
that are paramount TO the cheap labor
Of foreign countries, Free-Trade and
reciprocity in competitive products
takes precedence over the time-honored
principle of protection. The people
have become so hypnotlZed and infat-
uated yer certain policies as regards
corporate wealth that every other vital
principle of Republication Is side
tracked.
1t will be indeed remarkable IL this
does not result In disaster in the near
future. 1t certainly invites it.
The feeble hold the principles of the
Republican party have upon the masses
of those who claim to belong to that
organization is cause for genuine APP

Director General John Barrett OF the
bureau OF American republics, is very
confident that the greatest benefit de
rived from the cruise of the fleet will
be the good impression it will make
among South American countries. And
the chief value of this will lie In the
fact hat it was wholly outside the
purposes of the administration when
the cruise was planned.
In his address before the American
Political Science association, Mr.. Bar
rett showed the Importance of preserv.
ing the integrity of the Monroe doc.
trine and declared that our naval de.
m~onstration. intended primarily for
practice and its influence on the great
powers of the world, would greatly
strengthen u relations with South
American countries. convincing them
that we are abundantly equipped to de-
fend our position against any nation.
The recent work Of h Latin Ameri-
this country the need of paying more
attention 10 our Immediate neighbors,
who are destined to become important
factors in American development. And
we assume that Mr.. Barrett believes
the time propitious for beginning an
active campaign in Latin America. that
we may secure the commercial pres
tige TO which we are entitled.
1t Is a fact that owing to neglect on
the part of our merchants and anu
facturers, and also a lack of interest
on the part of the government in the
maintenance of steamship lines between
this country and South American ports,
European traders have gained an ad-
vantage which never should have been
theirs. and from which they can be dis
lodged only by prompt and Intelligent
effort.

complished much toward clearing the
way for the invasion; the prominent
part the administration took i'm as

congress was another link In the chain
Of fortultous events, and now the cruise
OF the fleet focuses the attention of our
neighbors Oh this country as their
great ally and protector. Surely the
hour is here when we should seize the
fruits so temptingly displayed and
thereby cement relations which have
been held all too loosely.-Toledo

land of Washington.
But Washington is to be studied for
his great personal qualities and mans
hood. The demands of his country took
him away from sedentary pursuits and
made him what he was, a man of act
ion. He liberated thirteen colonies and
made them Il nation. Vested with deS-
potic power, he returned ii to the peo-
pie. He chose a republic instead of im-
perial and personal ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
He held office so long as the interests
of his country demanded, but no longer.
His administration was pure and ele-
waited, no corruption ever found place
under his rule; he sank not to the
groveling level of partisan politics, but
represented party and faction by his
majesty and weight of his character.
His appointments were of honest and
able men, and this example, is not lost
to the republic, though degeneracy has
reached it.
lie taught us love Of liberty and
country. He showed his respect for
man and free government. He taught
by the wisdom of his action rather
than by any set theories. He laid down
in his farewell address those sound
maXims that we enter into no entang-
ling alliances with foreign nations that
we repress party rage and sectional
feeling. and, above all. that we cherish
the union of these states, as the palla-
dunn OF our liberties. and our only
hope.
