Godfrey said, and turned across the
lawn. He walked with head down and

Can you make anything of it?" I
asked, but he only shook his head.

Godfrey paused to look about him. The

The Newest Discovery in Chemistry

This is 4 recent discovery Of Dr..
Pierce, who is head Of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo,
N. Y. Experiments at DR.. Pierce's
Hospital for several years proved that
there is no other eliminator of uric
acid that can be compared to it. For
those easily recognized symptoms of
in1ammation-as ~backache, scalding
urine and frequent urination, IS well
as sediment in the urine, or if uric
acid in the blood has caused rheuma-
tism, it is simply wonderful how sure
~ "Anuric" acts. The best of results are
always obtained in of acute
rheumatism in the joints, In gravel
and govt, and invariably the pains and
stiffness which sc frequently and per-
sistently accompany the disease rap
idly disappear.
Go to your nearest drug store and
The citizen-Republican. (Scotland, Bon Homme County, S.D.) 1???-19??, 1916-01-06

simply ask for a 50-cent package of
"Anuric' manufactured by DR.. Pierce,
or even write DR.. Pierce for a large
trial package d0c). If you suspect
kidney or bladder trouble, send him a
sample of your water and describe
symptoms. DR.. Pierce's chemist will
examine it, then DR.. Pierce viii report
to you without fee or charge.
NOTE. "Anuric' is thirty-seyen
times more active than lithia in elimi-
mating uric acid, and is a harmless but
reliable chemical compound that may
be safely given to children, but should
be Used only by grown-ups who actu-
ally wish to restore their kidneys to
perfect health. by conscientiousIy
using n box-or more in extreme
cases-as "Anuric" thanks to DR..
Pierce's ackieyement) is by far the
most perfect kidney and bladder cor
rector obtainable.

that the glance treasured him.

WASHINGTON Not a Radical,

In his younger days Washington
seems to have been something of a
political idealist. His Imagination was
full of the romantic virtues which poets
ascribed to the ancient Romans, and
he expected to find them repeated
among the colonial statesmen. Sad ex-
perience caused him to lower his hopes.
He lost the belief that men would con-
duct themselves properly without re
straint. my opinion of public virtue
Is so far changed that 1 have my
doubts whether any system, without
the means Of coercion in the sovereign,
will enforce due obedience to the or
ders of the government" This was
one of his condolences to Madison be-
fore the constitution had been framed.

A Lafayette Gift
To Washington
the fatal cold

"HE Marquis de Lafayette was
the commander of the French
national guard at the time of
the destruction of the Bastille,
and he directed and assisted In razing 1t.
The key fell into his hands, and a few
months after the demolition of the
prison he sent 1t by Thomas Paine,
who was In London at the time, to
General Washington. Lafayette at di-
vers times presented gifts to Wash
ington, whom he adored. The CORE
spondence between the Frenchman
and Washington in regard to the key
Is most interesting.
Lafayette wrote: "Give me leave, my
dear general, to present to you a pic
ture Of the Bastille as it looked a few
days after l ordered its demolition,
with the main key of the fortress of
despotism. 1t Is a tribute which l owe
as a son to my adopted father, as al
aid-de-camp to my general, as a mis-
sionary of liberty to its patriarch"
In reply Washington said: II have
received your affectionate letter of the
18th March, 1890, by one conveyance
and the token of the victory gained by
liberty owe despotism by another, for
both which testimonials of your friend
ship and regard l pray you to accept
my warmest thanks. In this great
subject Of triumph for the new world
and for humanity In general 1t will
never be forgotten how conspicuous a
part you bore and how much luster
you reflected upon a country in which
you made the first displays of your
character"
The picture mentioned was a pen
ell sketch and hangs beneath the glass
box containing the key in the old hall
at Mount Vernon. 1t attracts invari-
ably the attention of the visitor to
beautiful Mount Vernon, which is a
storehouse and treasury of Washington
relics.
In his French Revolution" Carlyle
refers to the taking Of the key across
the Atlantic to lie on Washington's
hall table, and in giving the number
killed at the capture of the building
(eighty-three of the ~besiegers and one
of the besieged) he adds, 1.-THE Bastille
fortress, like the city of Jericho, was
overturned by miraculous sound"
