"BUNCOMB BE"
it Don't Always Pay to be skepticaI.


When a newspaper writer and proof
reader that works nights can feed
himself out of dyspepsia, which most
all that class suffer with, it is worth
while to know the kind of food used.
This man says:
Being a newspaper writer and
proof reader, also a graduate in medi-
cine as well, though not practicing,
makes a combination that would pro-
duce a skeptic on the subject if any
thing would.

food I was eating at the restaurant.
One day I saw package of Grape

local disturbance at all, but it had the
effect of causing the observance of
precaution being the better part of
valOr, and some smacks spent the
night in deep water.
Shipping was notified in this mes
sage that it was dangerous and would
continue so for the next two days
north of Cuba. That led many to
predict some force of disturbance
here within short time. The warn
ing message, however, which had no
local bearing, was as follows:

The Conclusion.

I'm the great change which had
come over the nation when Its
activities we're resumed hur-
riedly as if to make up for lost
time, and men went back to their
tasks shame-faced for nasty ac-
lions and with a reawakened faith
in government and country, the
capital appeared deserted. Gone
were the tents of the armies, and
the grass began to peep up
through trodden fields where men
had marched and drilled when pre-
pairing for war. A nation unified
was striving by action to expunge
from history a page that had
promised ill-when faith faltered
and men went mad. The blot was
to be erased, and followed by
pages of glory where wrongs were
righted and laws upheld in UNI
wavering respect. That natural
reimbursement which inevitably fol-
lows times when men have been
tried and aroused to deadly earn
estness began. The lesson was
being learned that the people
themselves will find a way, and
that bloodshed is the recourse of
fools and impulsive men. The
American people were thrusting
brawny shoulders and willing
thews to the wheel of progress,
and driving it forward again as it
had been driven but few times be-
fore, and the old shibboleth of the
country, In unity there is
strength" was being demonstrated
anew. The amazed foreign govern
ments of the world had resigned
themselves to their former atti-
tude of jealousy, but had been
driven to respect more keenly the
inherent strength OF country
which could so determinedly rally
and bravely face an outward foe.
