"Iorturing Helpless Things. The
Clinch Valley News has frequently
called attention TO the barbarous GUS
tom Of carrying fowls head down

which there were several coops
packed and damned with chick

piled on each o.her, the chickens.
everyone OF them, had their mouths
open, printing ror breath. They were
to be shipped. What condition were
they in when they reached their des-
tination?
Chickens are not the only "help-
less things tortured. Watch the
driver swing his heavy whip and
lash his horses, fairly splitting the
hide of faith 'ul, tired animal,
which has more sense than his driv-
er! 1t ought not TO be necessary to
have police officer TO compel us TO
treat dumb, helpless things humane

religion we ought to become more
merciful and considerable.

Thick Headed.

We are all more or less "thick
headed" or "hard headed" and re-
fuse TO learn. A certain farmecr laid
by his corn last week with q heavy
double shovel pillow. tearing up the
roots of the corn. He said he awlays
IN ade good crops, and il did corn
good TO break the roots. Pity. but he
wont learn, and IL is no use 10 talk.
Another was driving a high-spirited,
skittish, young horse with bride
which had large heavy "blinds. {"
The horse could only see in front OF
him, and was scared nearly into fits
by what he heard but couldn't see.
The horse OF average intelligence,
with good eyes, will seldom scare at
anything he can see, unless il be
som' TN ng very unusual, and seen
for the first time.
But he he's been using these old,
tor.uinS "blinds" all his life, and
wont lean. It's no use to talk. We
are stubborn and thick headed set.

Are They Democrats?

We may not know just what
a real true Democrat is, techni-
cally speaking, but we do In, W
who is not true Democrat. lie
is the man who says that unless his
man is nominated in the primary he
will vote for the Republican nomi-
nee. This man is, asSurcdly, not Il
good Democrat. The man whose
principles are SO loosely thrown to.
gether that he can vote either way
upon a slight provOcation or disap-
pointment, shows clearly that he is
rs much one rs he is the other, and
not very much of either. lie is
neither fish nor fowl, but either, as
the occasion may require. lie is a
political anarchist, and will be heard
in the ranks of the AgItators when
ever there is anything TO agitate
about. To abide Dy the will of the
majority is Democracy. To aigtate
and kick out OF the traces because
you can't have your own way, is
silly, presumptous, and i'm short, not
democracy and any party is better
off without such dead weights.

Eat What
You want of the food you need
Kodol will digest it.

You need sufficient amount of
good wholesome food and more than
this you need to fully digest it.
Else you can't gain strength, nor
can you strengthen your stomach if
1t Is weak.
You must eat In order to live and
maintain strength.
You must not diet, because the
body requires that you eat suflic-
lent amount Of food regularly.
But this food must be digested,
and it must be digested thoroughly.
When the stomach can't do it.
you must take something that will
help the stomach.
The proper way to do Is to eat
what you want, and let Kodol di-
gest the food.
Nothing else can do this. When
the stomach is weak 1t needs help;
you must help it by giving it rest,
and Kodol will do that.

large crowd was standing by the
balloon, while the initiation was in
progress, and several of the men were
asked by the manager 10 hold the
ropes of the balloon until the gas had
filled the bag sufficient for an Assem-
sion. Cox was one of the men, and
when the time came for the ascension
and everybody released their hold,
Cox was standing on a rope attached
to the balloon, and before he could

STOLE BASE; UNCONSCIOUS

Chicago, Sept. THE strain OF
stealing to third base and the excite
ment attendant upon the play is be-
lieved to have overcome John Hos
sang, who is now unconscious In a 10
cal hospital. He is a member of the
Hamburg amateur baseball team.
During a game he dashed from second
to third base, just beating the ball,
which was thrown by the catcher OF
the opposing team. He was called
safe. but instead Of arising lay still on
the ground He was taken to the hos
pital. where his case has proved a
puzzle. as an examination showed no
signs OF physical injury.
