Y 11 TATTERED BATTLE FLAG OF THE FIGHTING TENTH PENNSYLVANIA REGIMENT To be Carried in the Dewey Parade in New York. Additional Local News. Qualifications for a Politician. To be a successful and respected politi- \ cal leader, u man must be ut all times i conscientious and self sacrificing. lie I must be an obedient servant of the peo ple. He must labor energetically for] the welfare of his neighbors, answer all i letters whether stamps are enclosed or j not, never take a place that is not given j him by a popular election, but bestir himself at all times to secure places for others. If even so much as a suspicion arises that he is '"in it for boodle," that he "farms" aspirants for office, or manip ulates matters so as to bring grist to his own mill, he becomes an object of con tempt, as he should. And he must not resort to double-dealing in order to keep everybody feeling good, but must be j frank and open, show his whole hand j and trust to the reasonableness of the i people and to time, to vindicate the I wisdom and virtue of his actions. De- ! ception only postpones the day of wrath, i Any man who lacks energy, or who is J easily annoyed, hud better stay out of politics. The Machaevellian politician j may obtain a few brilliant successes, but j he will not last. Even those who lack j high instincts of honor themselves, and j who are neither honest, truthful, nor j trustworthy, admire those principles in others. And, as the majority of people ! are honest, they will not long tolerate a j man whom they regard as a rogue. The j local politician who can truthfully aver j that he never took a dollar from a candi- i date, who takes an interest in every ; election, and always tries to elect the j best men, never loses his influence. On j the contrary he grows stronger all the, time. This may appear like a thankless task, but it always wins in the end. There is nothing truer than this, that virtue is its own reward, and it is equally true that vices of every kind bring their own punishment and humiliation.— Punxs'y Spirit. Our Admiral's Return. This is Dewey week. And all the land is ringing with the praises of our gallant Admiral whose triumphant re turn to the native shore has taken the country by storm. As a fitting souvenir of the occasion, The Philadelphia Inquirer secured a picture of the Olympia leaving Manila Harbor for the long voyage home. This has been handsomely reproduced in ten printings with a portrait of Ad miral Dewey in one corner and will be presented free with every copy of next Sunday's Inquirer, October 1,1899. It is a beautiful picture and a most appropriate memento of the glorious achievements of the third American Admiral. In adition to this there will be a bright colord section, an interesting magazine section and all the customary wealth of special features and as that day's issue will be full of the accounts of the enthusiastic reception of the Admiral in New york city there is sure to be on enormous demand for it. Owing to the immense amount of labor necessary in the preparation of these pictures the edition is limited and it would therefore be well to order it ahead in order to be sure of getting a | copy. Story of a Slave. To be bound hand and foot by the i chains of disease is the worst form of i slavery. George D. Williams, of Man i Chester, Mich., tells how such a slave was made free. He says: "My wife i has been so helpless for tive years that ! she could not turn over in bed alone. After using two bottles of Electric I Hitters, she is wonderfully improved | and able to do her own work." This I supreme remedy for female diseases ; quickly cures nervousness, sleepless ness, melancholy, headache, backache, fainting and dizzy spells. This miracle working medicine is a godsend to weak sickly, run down people. Every bottle guaranteed. Only 50 cents. Bold by I L. Taggart, druggist. CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THUKSDAV SEPTEMBER 28, 1899 FLAOCiINQ THE FAST MAIL. How an Illinois Woman Accomplished it and Gained Her Object. lowa Rcgirrjr. The stage has been outdone again, and Lincoln J. Carter's famous "Fast Mail" will have to take a back seat. Saturday afternoon the depot platform at Evanston, 111., was the scene of a far more thrilling scene than could be pictured on any stage. Shortly after 3 o'clock a man and woman came running into the depot and asked the time of the next train for Kenosha. They were told that the fast mail went through in a few minutes, but that be cause of the grade at that point the train could not be stopped without losing a quarter of an hour, and for that reason it was against the com pany's rules to flag it. It was four hours till the next train, and the man and woman, Mr. and Mrs. Nathan Allen, of Kenosha, pleaded, cried and begged until finally the station agent telegraphed the division superintendent. Back came this cruel answer: "Much as we would like to accommodate from a humanitarian standpoint, it will mean the loss of thousands of dollars to the road, and it is absolutely impossible to think of flagging the 3 o'clock fast mail at Evanston." Mr. and Mrs. Allen had been summoned home by a message that their child was dying, and they would give anything to catch the train, but the delaying of the United States mails was a dilemma the rail road officials could not untangle and they had to refuse. The man sat down on the platform and sobbed like a child, but not so the woman, for there was still one hope. Presently the mighty roar of the great flyer tearing into Evanston at the rate of fifty miles an hour caused Allen to look up and toward the train. Standing directly in the path of the fast mail, and too far away from the depot to be saved by survived spectators, was Mrs. Allen, frantically waving a red-lined golf cape. Allen closed his eyes, expecting when next he opened them to see his wife terribly mangled, but there was a man aboard that flying engine who could do something, and who did do some thing. Engineer Mernard reversed his engine and stopped that fast mail as a Northwestern fast mail has never been stopped before, for the woman who had been waving the signal had fainted and fallen on the track. When Allen opened his eyes, instead of seeing his wife torn to pieces, she was safe .and sound in the arms of the blue jacketed and grimy engineer. Mr. and Mrs. Allen were put aboard and comfortably cared for, and in a short time they were at the side of their stricken child. WONDBHPULCURE OF DIABHHOEA. A Prominent Virginia Editor Had Almost Given Up, But was Brought Back to Perfect Healh by Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy—Head his Editorial. From the Times, Hillstille, Va. I suffered with diarrhoea for a long time and thought I was past being cured. I had snent much time and money and suffered so much misery that I had almost decided to give up all hopes of recovery and await the result, but noticing the advertisement of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diar rhoea Remedy and also some testimon ials stating how some wonderful cures had been wrought by this remedy, I decided to try it. After taking a few doses I was entirely well of that trouble and 1 wish to say further to my readers and fellow-sufferers that I am a hale and hearty man to-day and feel as well as I ever did in my life.—O.

Brown, Kalamazoo, Mich., says: "Kodol Dysptpsia Cure cured me of a severe case of indigestion; can strongly recommend it to all dyspep tics." Digests what you eat without aid from the stomach, and cures dys pepsia. R. C. Dodson. Sly Troubles spring from idleness and grievous toils from neediest} oares.

One Minute Cough Cure completely cured ine," writes Helen McHenry, Bismark, N. D. Gives instant relief. 11. O. Dodson. Sly He who can suppress a moment's anger may prevent a day of sorrow. For wounds, burns, scalds, sores, skin diseases and all irritating eruptions nothing so soothing and healing as DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve. Mrs Emma Bolles, Matron Englewood Nursery, Chicago, says of it: "When all else fails in healing our babies, it will cure." R. C. Dodson. Sly Much doing is not so important as well doing. A diseased liver declares itself by morosenesa, mental depression, lack of energy, restlessness, melancholy and constipation. Herbine will restore the liver to a healthy condition. Price 50 cts. L.
