A Domestic Hen.

Zoe Jererson used to tell this one:
 ''In the spring of 1892. being in the vicinity s( West swanzey. N. H.. I drovo Sver to call on my old friend. Den Thompson. It happened. that :alled at an inopportune time. as ths women folk were housekeeping. In fact, I noticed as I drove up to ths house that the clotheslines in the yard back of the house were laden with carpets
 "Den was very anxious that should look over his prize fowls, in which he took especial pride. We went out into the big yard back of the house. Al Den was pointing out to me his favoel ttes we noticed one old hen going through some queer antics. She was pecking away at something on tho ground, lifting 1t in her bill and drop ping 1t again.
 Whats tho matter with the old Biddy, anyway. Denr I asked.

IN BED
 AND OUT After Taking Cardui, the Woman's Tonic, Mrs. Mills of Uyalde Says She Feels Like a
 New Person.

Uvalde, Tex.-"I was in bed and out, writes Mrs. Thos. c. Mills of this town, "and could not do any of my llouseWork. have taken three bottles of Cardui, the Woinan's tonic, and am now able to do it myself and feel like new person.
 "I am so thankful for your advice and will always keep Cardui in my house.
 You should certainly waste no time in getting bottle of Cardui, if you feel that you need tonic.
 No one can know so we'll as you, whether you need one or not. If you feel weak, tired, languid, lazy, unable to work or take an interest in the things and people around you; if you are cross, irri- table, easily vexed, feel like crying over trifles, and in general what folks call "out of sorts" you need tonic-you need Cdrdui, the woman's tonic.
 You need not be afraid to take Cardui freely and regularly, for as long time as yoa feel it helps you. It is perfectly harmless, contains no drugs to form a habit, and can do you nothing but good.
 While Cardui is medicine, it is mild medicine, not a powerful dangerous, drug compound, that may exert possible dan- gerous after-effects.
 No, its mild, beneficial action is per- fectly safe, and does not interfere with any other medicine you may be taking, but its tonic action will help any other good medicine to do you more good.
 Try Cardui today.

Very Misleadinq.

Battersby came across this interest. ing item in the household department: If men would answer their wives kindly and courteously when asked for money it is undoubtedly true that the amount requested would not be half as much as it would hs if the husbands reply was surly and antag- onistic"
 Battersby read this item over twice to make sure he grasped it's meaning, and just then his wife entered the room.
 George" she said, q want some money"
 Battersby smiled affably.
 "Yes, my dear." he pleasantly fe. marked. "and how much do you want:''
 Mrs. Battersby stared at him in amazement.
 q said I wanted some money.",
 This tirae she spoke with much dis tinctness.
 "And l asked you how much you wanted" Batt4rsby merri]y reminded her.
 Fifty dollars" she snapped.
 Battersby almost tainted. He had imagined she was after $5 and that his genial tone would cut the amount to $2.5O.
 But he handed over the fifty with. out further ado-and then tore the misleading item into infinitesimal fragmcnts.- Plain Dealer

Chicago, H., Oct. 19.-The six.

holders OF the Illinois Central road
as well as the October meeting oi
the directors, will be held at the gen

Is understood that beyond settling
the presidency OF the road for the
rest of the calendar year little will
be done. Under the present plan OF
the board J. T. Harahan will con.
tinue as president until January /.
when he will be succeeded presum-
ably by W. l.. Park. who now holds
the position OF vice president in

1t is a requirement of the pension
system of the Illinois Central that

that in Harahan's case the pension
which will be paid him for life will

be made. 1t would be doing a great
wrong to men, who are sacrificing
Inclination to duty, TO desert them
or even half-heartedly support them
in the crisis.
Now. turn to the Democratic ticket.
Nearly every man on it has been a
persistent seeker after office. Ev-
cry candidate for alderman. is now or
has been an active candidate for
mayor; the candidates for the other
positions have been conspicuously
identified with the Lang-LightfOot
machine for years, and they actually
made a race for the nominations. In
a widely advertised primary with
some thirty entries and eighty-eight
officers. less than 400 votes were
cast all day long, and candidates
were out openly working for the
nominations. Besides the candidates
themselves and the officers. city and
county Democratic officials, the po-
litical workers and the personal
friends of the successful candidates,
voting at their solicitation, it is prob
able no other Democrats cast a vote
at that primary.
Why are they seeking Offices that
don't pay for the time devoted to the
public business? We can under
stand why citizens may be induced
to serve on the general council, be-
cause they are interested in the city's
welfare and are convinced by others
that they owe this duty to the city;
but we can't imagine a man deliber-
ately seeking a position on one of
the boards. making a canvass for
votes for the nomination and allying
himself with machine politics to gain
seat simply in the interest of the
public veal Either ne has personal
ambition to subserve. which will con-
troll his actions in Office. or he has
some other motive. not related to the
service of the people.
Their attitude toward the Office,
the manner of selection and their
representative character unite TO
bind us to the ticket, which we en-
dorse by mailing it to the masthead.
There are grave issues before the
good people of Paducah this fall
They have experienced enough of the
present city administration to judge
OF its capacity and motives. and the
issues presented are whether the
people will strengthen the hands of
the administration with a general
council heartily in sympathy with its
plans and purposes. or they will put !
an adverse majority in the general 4,
council to hamper the administration,
thwart its projects and disorganize
The public service on the eve of a Il
campaign for the purpose
Of influencing the next election.

THE FIRST NATIONAL BANK
Chemistry Promotes Industry.

The chemist is becoming an in
creasngly important factor in our
daily life, and his efforts are almost
wholly directed toward lowering the
cost of production, either by finding
more economical processes of manu-
facture or finding uses for products
hitherto considered as waste" says
the September Popular Mechanics.
in an illustrated article. ''To these
ends many OF the larger Industrial
enterprises employ corps of chemists
with completely equipped labora-
tories. Possibly not one discovery
of value TO that particular business
is made in year, even two years.
but when il is made. it is worth to
that industry many times the cost
of its chemical department"
IL is stated that the University OF
Kansas was the pioneer in establish
ing a department of Industrial chem
istry. and the result has been i'm
portant and profitable Improvements
in several Industries. and the utili-
cation of number of products pre-
viously regarded as waste.

WE NAIL OUR FLAG TO THE
MASTHEAD


The Evening Sun has flung out a
banner at its masthead in the munich
pal campaign and drawn the fire of
the popguns on North Fourth street.
The Morning Prescription seems to
think The Evening Sun has lost its
independence in deliberately making
a choice of municipal tickets. The
Evening Sun will publish both tickets
for comparison; but il would be
morally recalcitrant, il this time It
should fail to emphatically endorse
one ticket above the other.
To explain: the men on the Repub-
lican city ticket are not politicians
and were induced to stand for the
election against their natural incli-
nations. Some of them were urged
by Mayor Smith to accept the nomi-
nations, after that their names we're
mentioned. and others allowed them
selves to be persuaded by various
citizens, interested in good govern
ment The possibilities for the Re-
publican nomination were discussed
about the streets for weeks before
the convention. and even the News
Democrat published three different
alleged states. all of which were
partly good guesses as to the nomi-
nees and partly bad, but all showing
that there was nothing concealed
about the names proposed. The
Democratic candidates for the pri-
mary were not known until they were
given out at Lang's drug store the
night the entries closed.
A machine made slate speaks for
itself. When political machine
names candidates. the choice always
consists OF men who can be handled.
Cast your eye over the names at the
head OF this column and honestly
ask yourself, whether the list looks
like machine product. Ask the
men, nearly all of them entirely new
10 public life. why they are running
for office, and they will tell you they
are not running, they are standing
for election, because some citizens
interested in good government per-
suaded them It is their duty to do so.
Not one Of them sought the nomina-
tion, and not a few had to be won
over TO accept the nomination by the
hardest kind OF persuasion.
That is why The Evening Sun is
DESTROYS that no possible misunder-
standing in its choice OF tickets may

THE PUBLIC FORUM.
Mr.. Bryan In LivcrpooI.

Mr.. w. j. Bryan, whose speech al
the Philharmonic hall last night
brought the British conference OF
the Y. NJ. c. A. movement to a bril-
liant climax, recalled by his person
ality and eloquence his great COM
patriot, Henry Ward Beecher. who
came to the same hall over 40 years
ago to plead the cause of the north.
The gospel of the two men was the
| same-the gospel of altruism-but
what a difference in the welcome.
Mr.. Beecher was howled down and
silenced by self-interested cotton
merchants who thought their bust
ness to be dependent on slave labor.
Mr.. Bryan had reception worthy
of a great ambassador of moral and
religious idealism.
In his delightful self-revelation
Mr.. Bryan proved a disappointment
and a SURPRISE disappointment as
master of pure eloquence. and a
SURPRISE very agreeable surprise
AS a man of deep moral and re-
ligious. convictions. The massive
head, smooth intellectual face, and
thin masterful lips spoke of power
and self-confidence; the kindly eye
of benevolence and humor, and APP
pearances were not falsified. In his
80 minutes address he displayed
abundantly all these qualities and
many more. What was missing was
a justification from the English
point of view of the designation of
"silver-tongued orator"
The voice was deep and resonant,
and the periods rich and easy-flow-
ing; but one found no trace of the
silvery tones and majestic phrasing
OF Gladstone, little of the compell-
ing beauty of Bright, and none of
the whirlwind equestrianlsm of the
typical American "spell-binder" IL
was strong, masterful, delightful.
and captivating speaking in a clear,
untiring voice, not unlike that of
Mr.. John Redmond, and with a die
tion borrowed from the well of pure
English, defiled only. If at all, by
pronounced American accent and an
American proneness to the vivisec-
ton of long words.
But II there was no silver in the
voice there was much refined gold
in the matter, and it is here that
the pleasant surprise came in. One
does not associate moral enthusiasm
and religious fervor with American
politics, and one remembered that
Mr. Bryan had thrice waded knee
deep in the miry intrigues of a presi-
Dental election. His magnificent
championship of the Y. NJ c. A.
movement as a maker of men, physi-
cal, mental and moral, his acknowl-
edgment OF his own obligation to it,
his glorification of the moral ele-
ment, his quarrel with Buckle for
excluding IT from his definition OF
civilization, and his mastery reply
to scientific atheism-all this COM
ing from the lips. and evidently the
heart, of an American political
leader was indeed surprising reve-
lation. IL was like hearing OF the
kaiser turning Quaker. or Roosevelt
becoming a local preacher.
Not the least delightful part Of
the speech was Its humor, and the I
