except by those who do not happen to
know some one who has used the med
icine. The remedy is rapidly making
q national reputation al the most re-
markable curative agency of the age.
Testimonials from far off states are
neither wanted or needed here at
home. The people who live here. and
have used the remedy. are telling their
friends about 1t. That is the princi-
pal cause OF the great demand for It.
We are told that Root Juice con-
tains Golden Seal for the mucous lin

Washington the Place.

From the Baltimore Sun.
The completion Of the greatest en-
cheering work ever achieved by man
the digging Of the Panama canal
should certainly be signalized by a
celebration in keeping with the i'm
portance Of the event. A national ex-
position Is suggested, and the Sun
months ago pointed out that Wash
ington was the city in which it should
be held. 1t Is the capital of the ma
tom there the canal was authorized
and planned and from that point the
work has been directed. Being the ma
tion's capital, tba celebration would
have national significance that it
would lack IL 1t were the enterprise
Of some other city. The Sun brought
out these points long ago. It is graf
flying to see that the Washington
board of trade. chamber OF commerce
and other civic bodies have taken the
matter In hand and are planning a
comprehensive campaign to secure
this great national event for the ma
tional capital.

SIR JOHN SOANE'S WHlM.
The Practical Joke a Celebrated Man
Played on Posterity.

The Practical Joke a Celebrated Man
Played on Posterity.
One Of the most famous of postmor-
tenn jokes was that perpetrated by the
donor of the celebrated Soane museum
OF pictures and other valuable objects
dart to England, the late Sir John
SOane, who died in 1887. In his will
Sir John made provision for the open
ing Of three sealed cupboards on GER
tain specified dates in the presence Of
the trustees. In 1S66-that is to say,
almost thirty years after the death of
the testator-the first Of the mysterious
receptacles was with much ceremony
and breaking Of seals opened in the
presence Of a committee of men, with
the then president OF the Royal acad-
envy, Sir F. Grant. at their head. In
stead OF a priceless treasure or some
evidence that would throw an entirely
new light upon some doubtful incident
in political history the contents of the
cupboard proved to be worthless ac-
counts, letters and stationery.
Twenty years passed by, and the in

disappointment OF 1866 was again
famed into flame at the prospect of
breaking the seals Of the second cup
board, at which rite there were pres
emit, among others. DR. Alfred Water
house, r. A., and Sir fhen Dr. B. w.
Richardson. Like the cupboard men
toned in the well known nursery
rhyme, Sir Johns second cabinet
proved "bare' of any sensation, the
contents being chiefly composed OF let
tiers relating to certain long forgotten
family quarrels that had not even the
merit Of being interesting. IL some of
those authorized to be present at the
opening Of the third aud last recepta-
Gle OF mystery were dubious about the
profit that would accrue by letting the
light of day fall upon the contents
thereof after sixty years. darkness, one
at least. Sir B.tW. Richardson, looked
forward with una bated interest to that
day in 1896 when the last seal would
be broken and the mystery solved, but
he, alas, died just two days before the
ceremony was performed, and the fact
that Sir John had played 4 practical
joke upon posterity was duly confirm
ed by the presence of a collection OF
perfectly worthless letters and papers.

BULLYING BY Capital.
From the New York World.

From the New York World.
There will be no panicdn Milwaukee
because certain representatives of
capital have intimated that, governed
by socialists, money will not seek in
vestment there. Capitalistic interests
rarely appear In worse light than
when they make up their minds to
punish somebody for voting contrary
to their views. They tried that expe-
riment on the populists OF Kansas
once, and it was not long before they
were suing for peace. The ferocious
socialists who will control the Mil
waukee government are for the most
part fairly decent citizens of the AM
erican type. Among their bloodthirsty
demands are such atrocities as these:
That the traction companies shall
sprinkle the streets. that every pass
enger shall have seat, that there
shall be municipal gas plant that
bread shall be sold by weight and
that corporations shall pay taxes just
like poor folks. In this case, as in
some others, the terrors OF socialism
lie chiefly In the name. Capitalists
who have investments in Milwaukee
should bear up bravely as possible.
They will get their money back. the
socialists will turn a lot of rascals
out, and both Of the old parties, re-
formed to some extent. will be saw
ing the country as usual at the next
election.
