TAFT's APPEAL TO THE SOUTH

TO Prejudice.

to Prejudice.
HOT SPRINGS, Va, Aug. Ell
VIM. H. Taft today delivered an ad-
dress before a large audience of re-
publicans. and in it he made a strong
and VIGOROUS appeal to the solid
south" to break away from the
democratic party and join the repub-
licans.
Everybody having the interest
of the country at heart would
rejoice to see the solid south
broken as a democratic asset" and
then followed a review of the demo-
cratic administrations with the in
terrogatOry as to what benefits the
south had derived from them-as to
how much they had contributed to
its material and Industrial develop
ment. He maintained that the demo-
Gratis had done nothing for the south
and we're doing nothing today, but
that on the other hand the re-
publicans were taking steps every
day looking to its development in
an industrial and commercial way
He then dwelt upon the lack of in
fluence that the south had in the
executive branch Of the government
and said it was because it had always
been found in the democratic column.
and that it would continue to be so
until it came over to the republican

DID YEARS WORK IN A NIGHT.
College Man Who Proved the Worth
lessness of Examinations.

Some college professors insist that
the examination system is a failure
and they can cite instances which
they believe bear out their side of the
case. Onesof these faculty men, a re-
cent graduate from large university,
said:
when | was in college there was a
man of great capacity who had neg
lected one course from his freshman
year when he got condition. When
it came down to- his senior year he
had to make 1t uD, but he let it go
until the very last set of examinations.
Then he had to get it off or lose his
degree.
This man knew so little of German,
the course in which he was deficient,
that he could not even read the print
ed words with ease, let alone under
stand them. But he passed the ex-
animation.
'He went to a man in his class who
was proficient in German armed with
sets of examination papers in that
course for about six years back. They
picked out the recurrent questions I'M
til finally they saw that there were
enough which were included in the
various papers of each year to in
sure a passing percentage.
This man, who as | said was of
great capacity, then proceeded to
memorize a correct answer to each
of these questions. He had a keyword
for each question, so that he would
recognize it even if it were not worded
exactly as the one on a previous pa
per.
with this sort of work, which took
him about all night, he went into the
examination and passed off a years
work triumphantly."

A Peculiar Name.

There is a post hamlet in Cass
county, Missouri, with nothing pc
culiar about it except it's name, and
that is Peculiar. It's origin, accord
ing to local tradition, was as follows:
When the settlement had become
sufficiently populous to need a post
office, one of the prominent citizens
sent a petition to Washington to
have one established In due course
the petition was granted and he was
asked to suggest a name that would
please the people. He replied; The
people are not particular so long as
the name is peculiar"
Thereupon the post office was chris.
tened Peculiar, and the name has
never been hanged.-Sunday Mag.

The Orchard Cases,

Harry Orchare who testified in
the famous Boise, Idaho, trial that
he was hired to murder Gov.
Steunenberg,. has pleaded guilty
at his own trial Judge Woods
will sentence the man March Is.
The confession of Orchard, fol-
lowed by the acqittal of the men
he charged with having procured
him as the murderer of Gov.
Steunenberg, formed one of the
most interesting chapters of the
history of criminal trials in this
county.

A Blessing, Not a Blow.

Here's good one" said the tele.

now, brethren, l commend you to

We'll, the careless operator at the
other end handed the message to the

At THE TOMB OF THE mlNos.
Ancient sepulcher Object Of interest
to Travellers In China.

Every traveller in China goes to the
tomb Of the Mings If he stays more
han a few days in Shanghai. The
Chinese consider the Mings the great
EST rulers of the ancient kingdom,
and they rank second only to Con-
fucius. The tomb is composed of two
colossal figures facing each other, and
deliberately carved in the style affected
by Chinese artists centuries ago. Seen
in Central Park or Versailles they
would look grotesque enough but
standing as they do among bleak and
lonely hills, outlined against the clear
blue oriental sky, they have a rude
grandeur and imposing simplicity
which make them seem fit guardians
of imperial dust.
1t is not an easy journey the tourist
must take If he wishes to pay his re-
spects to the stone giants, nor Is it
trip advisable for a woman to un-
dertake, as it lies through a region
where hatred of the white devils" is
considered as much a part of the
Chinaman's religion as the worship of
his ancestors. A donkey and a guide
are necessary, and 1t is also wise to
get party of sightseers together for
the excursion if possible, and to go
we'll armed, for once foolhardy trav-
eler started forth alone from the hotel
on the Rubbing Well road, Shanghai,
TO visit the tomb of the Mings, and he
was never heard of again. There are
many places in the purlieus of Shan
ghai even where 1t is imprudent for a
white man to venture alone in broad
daylight. An extra donkey is also
needed to carry provisions as well as
the cameras, for most tourists want
a picture of the towering images
which have so successfully withstood
the wear of the centuries.

how A COLD
IN THE HEAD and
NASAL CATARRH
CAN BE CURED
ParaCamph Is Daily DemOnStrat-
ing Its Marvellous Curative
Properties.

At this time of the year, Cold
In The Head and Nasal Catarrh
are most prevalent. Many users
of Paracamph are not aware that
it will relieve and cure these
ailments.
Don't dose your stomach with
powerful drugs which always leave
a bad afterefect and in a great
many instances do serious harm,
but try Paracamph. You will be
agreeably surprised at the results.
Take a small quantity on the
end of the finger, put it well into
the nostril and snuff hard, so as to
get the remedy up into the chan
nels of the nose and until it runs
back into the throat. DO this
until the channels of the nose are
opened; then rub the outside of
the nose and forehead Thoroughly
applying Paracamph freely, as this
will stimulate the circulation, re
move congestion, open the pores
and draw out the fever and in
iammation by inducing sweating.
When Paracamph is used in this
manner, it goes Immediately to the
diseased and inHamed membranes,
cooling, soothing and healing the
same. 1t also kills the disease
germs.
The principle of Paracamph is
direct contact. 1t opens the pores
of the skin, one of the mediums
through which the body throws
off its impurities, permitting the
soothing, healing oils to penetrate
direct to the interior cells, and
removing all soreness, fever and
Inflammation by inducing perspi-
ration.
This treatment should be re-
peated several times and always
upon arising in the morning and at
night before retiring.
After a thorough trial, if you
are not perfectly satiied with the
results, go to your druggist and
he will give you your money
back.
Paracamph has relieved many
sufferers, and will cure without
harming. 1t does not as many
other remedies do, deaden the
nerves; but stimulates them so
they may perform their natural
functions.
Paracamph is sold and recon-
mended by f. G. Duerson. 34eow

the streams suffer a little from contami-

from rOadways.
