him and put his opponents In power
the new government viii owe a debt Of
gratitude to the United States, and this
country will have a better foothold for

Thus. not only will the State Depart

the Americans, but IL will place itself
in a fine position for preventing further
troubles among the countries Of Central
America, the place where more fighting
Is done with less bloodshed than In any
other part Of the known world.

RichmOnd.-The Supreme Court
of Appeals of Virginia decided that
voters may pay the poll tax. which is
essential to qualification, in person.
by messengers, by check or by pos
tai order. This reyerses the Nor
folk court which compelled the city
treasurer to place on the voting list
only such men as had paid the tax
in person-that is, by bodily appear
ance before the treasurer The SUI
preme Court held that the consti-
tuition in requiring personal pay
ment' simply meant that the voter
should use his own money, and that
others should not pay for him.
Norfolk.-Judge Martin, of tho
Court of Law and Chancery, here.
who rendered the lower decision,
on the poll-tax case reviewed by
the Supreme Court. said that that
body did not reverse him, but rather
reversed itself. his opinion having
been largely based upon argument
and quotations used in a previous
opinion by the Supreme Court.

WISE WORDS.

Character is what we make of life's
conditions.
1t takes more than good living to
make the good life.
No day is long enough to waste
any of it in nursing enmity.
The holy life is the one that is
healthy all the way through.
The unanswered prayer finds its
fruitage in the disciplined heart.
The man who is going to heaven
never tries to take up all the road.
No man is as good as he might be
who does not try to be better than he
can be.
No man needs our pity more than
he who is Indifferent 10 the SORROWS
of others.
It's always safe to deny the au-
thority of an opportunity that
thrusts itself in on duty.
The steps downward are so many
and so small that men seldom recog-
nize the grade.
There is some moral disease pres
ent when the sight of another's hap
piness gives us pain.
1t is often worth while to do an
apparently fruitless act for the sake
of acquiring a helpful habit.
Idleaess makes the hours YEARLY
long and the days woefully short.
He can never know any deep JOY
who can laugh at the sorrows of an
other.
The proof Of an education lies il
a mind so titled that p-ejudices gail
no root.-From Sentence Sermons,

For thirty years Lydia E. Pinkham's

town, the Winchester City Council

ules largely increased, and some of
them doubled The tax on the
amount of business done by local
merchants was increased. despite
the fact that more than q dozen fail
Ures among merchants have been re-
corded in the past year.
The tax on property of public
service corporations was increased.
and that on insurance companies and
express companies was doubled. 1t
is claimed by councilmen that the
immense jug business handled by
the express companies in shipments
of hqdOrs and beers from outside
points. will more than compensate
for the increase Salaries and ap-
preparations for the year remain the
same. Winchester voted out the sa-
looms in May. 1908. depriying the
town OF nearly $4,000 yearly reve-
nue. An immense amount OF beer.
whisky and other liquors are shipped
