a Treasure.

When Lincoln was practicing law q
client came to him and wanted to
know II something couldn't be done to
protect him from his wife He said
she locked him out nights and threw
dishes at him and battered him up
with a club. She scolded him day and
night and consistently and continuous
iy made life miserable for him
"Have you thought Of getting d.
vorceT' inquired Lincoln
mo. no: don't want q divorce
Why. wouldn't leave th' old woman
for anything"
"You wouldn't! After all that abuse?
And why not?''

Odd MARRIAGE Belief,

An unmarried man or woman OF
marriageable age Is something that IS
rarely seen in the Fill Islands. The
reason Of this IS not far to seek. The
natives believe that If person dies
while in an unmarried state his or
her soul Is doomed to wander about
through endless ages OF eternity In an
intermediate region between heaven
and hades. at the end Of each moon
they are allowed to look Into heaven.
but are never permitted to enter.

Colonel Roosevelt in his speech
at Hathaway, Montana replying
to the charge that be wanted to
be King said ''The constitutional
monarch of the present time
comes nearerssbeing a cross be-
tween a perpetual vice president
and a leader of the four hundred
than anything else I know.
Those who watched the career
of the great hunter will realize
that the position of governmen-
tai figure head would not suit
the strenuous one.

The News and Courier is hard

The News and Courier is hard
of hearing when it is asked sim
pie question. Last week we
wanted to know how it was that
in 1910 the vote of Charleston
was considered by it as fraudu-
lent, and this year it is clean
Notwithstanding there was about
1900 more votes cast than lL
1910. Two years ago Charleston
went for Blease, this year it
went for Jones and what we
want explained is does this make
the 1912 election taintless. The
News and Courier did the people
of that county grave injustice
in 1910, or the fraud screamers
give their attention to
those the morning daily of Char
lesion has given certificate of
purity.

Deafness Cannot Sc Cured

BY Iocalappllcatlons, as they cannot reach the
diseased portion Of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness, and that is by constitu
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an IN
famed condition Of the mucous lining Of the
EuStachian Tube When this tube gets lnfam
ed you have rumoling sound or imperfect hear
Ing, and when 1t is entirely closed DEAFNESS is
the result, and unless the Inflammation can be
taken out aud this tube restored TO its norma
condition hearing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out Of ten are caused by catarrh. which is
nothing but an inaamed condition OF the nu
cous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
case OF Deafness (cauSed by catarrh) that car
not be cured by Halls Catarrh Cure. Send tor

The Republicans carried Maine

The Republicans carried Maine
Monday by a small majority,
elected the governor and gained
two congressman. The leglsla
ture will be Republican on joint
ballot which means a Republi-
can senator. It will be remem-
bered that at the last election
Maine elected a Democratic gov
ernor, and the press proclaimed
Gas goes Maine so goes the ma
tion," but we do not think there
is any significance in this, the
National Democratic ticket will
win regardless of how Maine
went.
