FATHER OF TWINS AGED 50.
Fact Net Unusual Says Aged rOOklyu
Student of Eugenics.

New York, May 23.-Dr. David AL
lyn Gorton, OF Brooklyn, the S0-year-
old student of eugenics, who has just
become the father of twins, says that
there is no reason why man should
not be father when 100 years old.
He cited the cases of many other
men who have become fathers at adj
zanced ages, notable Dr. Harvey W.
Wiley, who became the father of a
boy a few days ago, at the age of
66, and of Andrew Carnegie, whose
daughter was born when he was 81
years old.
The twins were born on April %
They are as we'll as any babies could
be. The mother is about half the ply
sicians age The twins are being fed
on milk, cereals and fruit, and they
will never be allowed meat For Al
years the father has lived on vege
table diet Most persons, he de-
clares, eat too much, especially meat
Hard work, he said is a tonic and {
panacea for all Ills.

rug SECRET OF SUCCESS
Genuine Merit REQUIRED to Win the
Peoples Confidence.

Have you ever stopped to reason
why it is that so many products that
are extensively advertised, all at
once drop out of sight aud are soon
forgotten? The reason is plan-the
article did not fulfill the promises Of
the manufacturer. This applies more
particularly to a medicine. A medi-
cinal preparation that has real cura
tive value almost sells itself, as like
an endless chain system the remedy Il
recommended by those who have been
cured to those who are in need of it.
In an interview on the subject a
prominent local druggist says TAKE
for example, DR.. Kilmer's Swamp-Root
a preparation ! have sold for MANY
years and never hesitate to recommend
for in almost every case it shows i'm
mediate results, as many of my Gus
toners testify No other kidney rem
edy that | know of has so large
sale"
The success of DR.. Kilmer's Swamp
Root is due to the fact that it fulfila
every wish in overcoming kidney, liver
and bladder diseases. corects urinary
troubles and neutralizes the uric acid
which causes rheumatism

Chattanooga, Tenn, May 23.-For
the week ending yesterday the condi-
tons are quite varied, according to
The Tradesman The long, cool, wet
weather has delayed crops in all ways
and retail trade has been disappoint-
ing. Where anything like normal ap-
pears, the improvement is rapid. Fruit
is being shipped from the South in
quantity. Collections are reported
somewhat slow in the South. Hay
crops reported unusually good Cot
ton will have relatively small acreage.
Large exports of cotton with large i'm
ports are reported. New vegetables
are coming in, quantity and prices are
easire. Provisions are reported some
what lower. Chothing is dull for the
cold weather has delayed the usual
demand for summer goods. Shoes are
normal in demand. Good yields Of
wheat and corn are confidently anti
cipated. Generally through the South,
trade conditions are near normal but
demands are rather for small quanti-
ties than is usual at this season. The
area of flooded lands has moved
south and is now PRACTICALLY between
Baton Rouge and the sea.
The condition of the soil, when the
water recedes, can not be expected to
Ne favorable to any paying crops this
year.
Iron and steel are fair and expand
ing demand Excepting where flood
conditions prevail. the general con
dition of the business of the country
may be considered fairly good. The
new industries of the week as reported
by The Tradesman for Georgia are in
detail as follows:

Albany 100000 turpentine compa-

THE PASSING OF TAFT.

The reputation of President Taft
appears TO be approaching the final
point. The nearer the date for the
convention approaches the more COM +
rlete it becomes. Surveying the field
| in all parts of the North and West it IS
evident that only a minority of his
PARTY is behind him, and that is the
faction held together by the cohesive
power of official spoils.
Taft himself stated in several of
his speeches in Ohio that as Ohio
went would settle the. contest. Taking
| him at his own word it must be con-
Ceded that Roosevelt is the master of
his party. Whipped in his own state,
Taft can hardly hope to secure the en-
dorsement of a denomination at Chi
cago. The battalion of office holders
! from the South cannot save him. The
common decency and ordinary sense
of his party will repudiate the idea Of
permitting postmasters and revenue
officials from the South, representing
nothing tangible in the shape of
party support, to control the nominal
ton under the conditions that exist.
The country has been treated to a
series of complete surprises, beginning
with Illinois and closing with Ohio.
Sixty days ago the idea that Roose-
welt could defeat Taft in his home
state would have been regarded as the
! height of absurdity In fact, when
Roosevelt entered the race the ten
dency was to belittle his candidacy in
every way and to predict his speedy
discomforture. The reverse has been
the case. Wherever the former Pres
ident has really had a square deal be-
the result would have been in New
York under conditions of ordinary DO
litical decency it is difficult to say.
Taft simply secured that state by COS
rupt political methods that discredited
his candidacy throughout the nation.
Roosevelt still lacks sufficient votes
to control the Chicago convention.
But such victories as he has had are
more than sufficient to bring Southern
delegates. looking solely for the loav-
es and the fishes over into his camp.
Ohio in all likelihood will give hi0l
the bulk of the delegates yet to be Sc
lected The convention will meet with
the definite knowledge that the greater
number of the delegates instructed ~
the people in states where a genuinely
popular wish has been obtained arc
committed to Roosevelt. That it coul,l
invite tremendous disaster at the
polls by disregarding this and forcine
Taft's nomination is incredible The
, Republican managers are not fools.
