There is a very unsavory scandal
in the public schools of Washing

They are all shouting in concert
that it must be hushed up.
Friends of Senator Burton in
Kansas do not believe that he took
the case which resulted in bis con

violating the law, and they are not
going to desert him in this dark
hour of his career.
The heroic survivors of the

A fifteen-year-old Jewish lad got

Our Democratic Mends are mak
ing a great to-do about the row in
the Republican Convention of West
Virginia. They do not seem to
comprehend the fact that such
little dissensions are simply a sign
of active interest in public affairs.
See Cuba, for instance!
Hobson and Bankhead are hav
ing great fun with each other down
in Alabama. Tlu; letter derides
the former's proposal for a 82,000,-
000,000 navy, and points out that
such an appropriation would cost
Alabama alone nearly $7,000,000.
But Hobson kisses the women and
babies and moves triumphantly on,
The postal frauds should help
rather than harm the Republican
party. Our postal department is
the greatest organization in the
world, having grown from 75 post
offices in Franklin's time to 70,000
now and from 300 employees to
250,000. There has been an
amazingly small percentage of
fraud.
Many petitions are being receiv
ed in Congress for the establish
ment of a parcels post. The com
ing of such a valuable adjunct of
the mail service is only a question
of a short time. Why should the
American people be tyrannized
over by four monopolistic express
companies? We ought to be able
to send ten or twenty pounds by
mail as the Germans and English
are.

Good Spirits.
Good spirits don't all come from Ken
tucky. Their main source is the liver—
and all the fine spirits ever made in the
Blue Grass State could not remedy a bad
liver or the hundred-and- one ill effects it
produces. You can't have good spirits
and a bad liver at (he same time. Your
| liver must be in fine condition if you
1 would feel buoyant, happy and hopeful,
j bright of eye, light of step, vigorous and
successful in your pursuits. You can put
j your liver in fine condition by using
j Green's August Flower—the greatest of
all medicines for the liver and stomach
and a certain cure for dyspepsia or indi
gestion. It has been a favorite household
remedy for over thirty-five years. Aug
ust Flower will make your livei healthy
and active and thus insure you a liberal
supply of "good spirits." Trial size, 25c;
regular bottles, 7">c. At all druggists.

When the republic had been set up
In France in 1848, wrote the Baroness
Bonde, the first attempts of the en
franchised people to use their new
powers resulted in the election of the
most miscellaneous assembly that had
ever tried to govern a country. A mem
ber nominated from Rouen went to
Paris and selected his seat. He had
hardly taken it when his next neighbor
turned and stared at him. The Rouen
man, embarrassed, turned up his coat
collar, but too late.
"Sir," said his lynx eyed eoitengue, "I
believe I had the honor of sending you
to the galleys for murder In IS—, when
I was Judge. You had strangled the
servant of the cure who had brought
you up, and robbed the worthy man.
Oblige me by resigning Immediately."
The next day the Monlteur announc
ed that there was a vacancy for Rouen,
but did not tell why. (

Letter to Balcom ft Lloyd.
Emporium, Pa.
Dear Sirs. Here's a bully one.
Mr. Dooley (not of Chicago), painter,
Lancaster, N. H , got the job of painting
the Episcopal parsonage. He was used
to a paint, a spure as Devoe, but weak
and short-measure —he didn't know it was
weak or short-measure. Dooley survey
ed the job, and said it would take 20
gallons.
Mr. L. F. Moore, our agent, offered to
give 10 gallons Devoe. Accepted of
course.
Eleven gallons did it; the 10 plus one.
Mr. Moore isn't painting parsonages on
shares this year!
Yours truly,
F. W. DEVOE & Co.

A man only finds life when he loses

A Wonderful Saving.
The largest Methodist Church in
Georgia, calculated to use over one
hundred gallons of the usual kind of
mixed paint in painting their church.
They used only 32 gallons of the Long
man & jVartinez Paint with 21 gallons
of linseed oil. Actual cost of paint made
Was kss tban 81.20 per gallon.
Saved over eighty (380.00) dollars in
paint, and got a big donation besides.
EVERY CHURCH will be given a
liberal quantity whenever they paint.
Many houses are well painted with
four gallons of L. & M., and three gal
lons of linseed oil mixed therewith.
Wears and covers like gold.
These Celebrated Paints are sold by
Harry S. Lloyd. 1

A disordered stomach may cause no
end ot trouble. Wh< n the stomach fails
to perform its functions the bowels be
come deranged, the liver and kidneys con
gested, causing numerours diseases, the
most fatal of which are painless and
therefore the more to be dreaded. The
important thing is to restore the stomach
and liver to a healthy condition, and for
this purpose no better preparation can be
used than Chamberlain's Stomach and
Livei Tablets. For sale by L. Taggart.

bottles of Thompson's Barosma, Kidney
and Liver Cure and was completely cured,
having had no return of the disease
since. For sale by R. C. Dodson.

John Oliver of Philadelphia, as follows:
'■l was in an awful condition. .My skin

sides, no appetite, growing weaker day
by day. Three physicians had given
111 c up. Then 1 was advised to use
Electric Bitters; to my great joy, the
