Comforting For Lovers.

Never do we bear the physical discom-
forts of life with such apparent ease
as during the happy days of courtship.
Stiff collars and tight shoes are worn
with smiling faces, and the maiden
gliding in the dance heeds not the
stabbing little corn upon her light fan
tastic toe.
But though scorned and unheeded it
makes an impression that often shows
in the little maids temper after the
ball
At other periods of life, truly great
aches from little toe-corns grow! And
all so unnecessary when a 10 cent
package of Woodstock corn plaster will

benefits that would be fair to all of the
states. the national government may
give effective and continuous assistance
to the countrywide road building move
ment.
The road extension of the rural de-
livery system and the Inauguration of
the parcel post which will enormously
increase the business or the rural deliv-
cry routes, constitute reason sufficient
for the enlistment of the national gov
eminent in the good roads movement.
The jackson bill suggests a fair and
feasible plan of cooperation between
national and state authorities in road
building. 1t proposes a method that
would protect the national government
completely in the outlay of money. The
plan, too, is calculated to inspire activ-
ity on the part of state legislatures.
Under the cooperative system which
the Maryland senator proposes, there
could be no laying down on the national
government by any state government,
as their undoubtedly would be under a
law that distributed money among the
states for road building in accord with
population state areas or under any
other system that turned over money
without conditions, for countrywide road
building.

SENATOR SMITH AND LORlMER.

Senator John Walter Smith in long
defense of his record in the Senate points
with pride to his two votes against the
impeachment of William Lorimer, the
Illinois politician, who, he declares was
the victim of Lynch" law in the Senate.
Lorimer was given two exhaustive
trials byshis peers in the Senate. He
had every opportunity to make a good
defense and he devoted these opportuni-
ties largely to drawing pathetic pictures
of himself as poor barefoot boy and
paying tribute to his own qualities as a
man who always takes care of his
friends.
Lorimeriwas deprived Of his seat in the
Senate upon good and sufficient evidence
that bribery and corruption had been
used in his election and that he knew
about it. On the second vote merely
handful of reactionary Senators of the
stripe Of Boies Penrose. Of Pennsylvania,
voted for the Illinois man.
Talk of 'lynching" of Lorimer is the
most foolish twaddle that could be utter
ed by any man who has given any at
tention to the impeachment proceedings.
Mr.. Smith will find that the people of
Maryland are not prepared to take his
fantastic explanation. The conviction
is deep-rooted in the minds of the people
and Mr.. Smith will have to produce
facts before he will bring many to his
way of thinking He will convict no
one by his mere assertion that Lorimer
was the victim of legal "lynching."

A Believer In Spiritualism Answers
Our Correspondent Ham" and
Invites Him To Attend a Meeting.

| To the Editor of The Republican:
What do you think of Spiritualism?"
am very much surprised that you have
been asked this question, for we all
know that the portion of anatomy you
represent, however fresh, is incapable
of expressing an opinion on any sub
ject. This fact is demonstrated by the
article to which your trade mark is APP
pended. You merely express the opin-
ion of others, who, like yourself, know
nothing about the subject.
am also surprised to note in this re-
markable thesis OF yours that you admit
there is such thing as spirit return;
that there is something about the phe-
nomena impossible to explain by scien-
tific or natural means. But, willful igno-
rance and stiff-necked stubbornness, are
responsible for the claim that any COM
munication received from the spirit
world comes from evil spirits, the agents
of the devil. Spiritualists have to admit
that there are evil spirits, for the Bible
teaches this; and from the same source
is abundant proof that evil influences
are combatted by the spirits of those
interested in our material and spiritual
welfare.
You state that visions are seen by
reason of the fact that the medium or
Others in attendance have too much
mountain tea" aboard. You know
that this is not true, or you must have
a very accommodating imagination. If
you stuck to the facts you would have
less to say. have seen a great many
mediums, am personally acquainted with
scores of those who believe in spiritual
ism, and have never known any of them
to drink mountain tea, " much less be-
come intoxicated.
You state that the spirits frequently
get mixed. ! have heard on two or
three occasions some one in attendance
at Spiritual meeting deny that they
ever knew the person whose spirit was
supposed to be talking; others claimed
that they had no relatives by the name
given. | have taken the trouble to in
vestigate a number of these cases and
have found that, in every case so inves-
tigated, the parties making the denial
were denying the truth.
Now as to the spirits being evil:
have never known of single instance
where anything but the best of advice
was given by the spirits at one at these
meetings. The meetings are opened
with song, prayer and scripture read
ing. Lectures are frequently given by
the spirits which are the equal, If not
superior, to any ever listened to in an
orthodox church. Christ is magnified,
the inspiration of the scriptures upheld,
inhdels become believers, and humanity
is lifted up to higher plane of moral
and religious life. Can this be of the
devil? Can good come out of that
which evil?" TRY the spirits" and
see which is good and which is evil.
Why did the spirit of Samuel rebuke
Saul for calling him? The reason is
obvious TO anyone who has taken the
time to read little more than the 18th
chapter of First Samuel. Samuel
had, before his death, made known to
Saul the awful fact that the Lord, be-
cause of Saul's disobedience. Why
again? The evil spirits were ruling
