Character.
History, if perused in a proper
manner, may bo of great service
to the youthful reader. Iu read
in? history we should seek, not
only to store up in memory its
most important facts, but also to
inquire in regard to each of them
what useful lesson it is calcula
ted to impress upon the mind.
The human heart is the same in
every age. The inspired Volume
declares "As face answereth face
in water, so doth the heart of
man to man :" therefore it is that
from virtues and vices, the suc
cesses and failures, of those who
have lived before us we may de
rive many useful suggestions for
the regulation of our own con
duct. If we read history in this
way we may be able to mention
some useful thought or reflection
it has suggested to our minds. I
think it has impressed upon my
mind the importance of charac
ter. I observe in reading history
th'it we appiove or condemn, ad
mi -e or detest, each individual
according to the character which
is ascribed to him, withoui re
gard to lus ran it or station.
It is often the case that eleva
tiou of rank or the glitter of
wealth will prevent just views of
the character and real worth of
those thus favored by circum
stances ; but the judgmentof his
tory is iu most cases much more
impartial. There vice, which in
its day was sheltered from con
demnation by elevation of wealth
or rank, is brought forth to re
ceive the execratiou which it just
ly merits ; while virtue, for a
time hidden in obscurity, is held
up to receive the honor and ap
plause ever bestowed upon it by
the conscience and better judg
ment of every rational being.
The royal murderer, against
whom in his days of regal splen
dor none dared to whisper a note
ot condemnation, is held up to
the execration of all coming ages;
while some act of noble generosi
ty, performed by the humble
peasaut without thought of exci
ting observation, is by the same
imjvartial record often handed
down to elicit the admiration of
all sucffeding generations. This
should impress on our minds the
great truth that the elevation
which is the result of external
cirvumstaucos is short-lived and
will noon pass away, but that
which results from true worth of
character is permanent and abi
ding. It is true that our names may
never descend to posterity, but
our character will go with us into
another stato of being. Leaving
all tlsio behind, this only will re
main with us, proving a treasure
or countless worth, a germ which
contains the elements of future
bliss or a curse, a germ of end
less misery and remorse. The
character we jtossess is far more
importaut to us than any circum
stance of our being. On this de
pends our wellbeing lar more
then on outward circumstances.
This Is a troth which has been
taught by the wise and good of
all ages, but it is a truth which
nvin is very slow to learn. The
happiness we enjoy or the wretch
edness we endure depends much
more upon the temper of heart
we cherish than ujnn our out
ward condition. Many who have
endured many privations and
much suffering have yet been
cheerful, happy, and even joyful.
"Happiness," as some one very
beautifully observes, "is a way
hide Cower, never found when di
rectly nougat, but growing all
along the ath of duty."

NEW SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY.
; Kemarkable developments have
recently resulted from chemical
laboratory experiments on the
digestion of food. A most re
markable instauce recently took
place iu the laboratories of E. C.
; DeWitt & Co., of Chicngo, where
chemical experiments are regu
larly carried on. In the test re
ferred to, one tenspoonful of Ko
, dol, a preparation consisting of a
; combination of vegetable aculs
and the natural peptones which a
healthy stomach would contain,
! and the preparing of which is the
result of scientitic research and
experiments, were placed in a
glass tube containing 3000 grains
of food, consisting of mince pie,
molasses candy, sponge cake,
white bread, boiled ham, boiled
I potatoes, pork fat, roast beef,
cheese, hard boiled eggs, nuts
and baked beaus. This food was
placed in a tube in its original
state, the tube was placed in wa
ter and heated over alcohol lamps
until it reached a temperature of
103 degrees, which is the normal
temperature of the stomach. In
the short time of four hours the
entire mass of food was thorough
ly digested, the action of the Ko
dol having been more complete in
its work than it is possible even
for the most healthy stomach to
accomplish, and it is not believed
that there is one person out of
one hundred whose stomach
would have so completely digest
ed this mass of food. There are
preparations which will digest
certain classes of food, but the
great desideratum has been to
obtain one that will digest all
classes of food. This has been
found in this important discovery
Kodol is considered in medical
science the first discovery of a
preparation that contains the ex
act jucies and acids that are to be
found in a healthy stomach. Ko
dol contains them in just the same
proportions, constituting it an ab
solutely harmless preparation
and the most completely effective
digestaut known to science, lm
mediately relieving indigestion
and permanently curing dyspep
sia. Trout's Drug Store has been
fortunate enough to secure the
agency for Kodol.
Nltht Wit Her Terror.
"I would cough nearly all night
long," writes Mrs. Chas. Apple
gate, of Alexandria, Ind., "and
could hardly get any sleep. I
had consumption so bad that if I
walked a block I would cougb
frightfully and spit blood, but,
when all other medicines failed,
three ll.OO bottles of Dr. King's
New Discovery wholly cured me
and 1 gained 5 pounds." It's
absolutely guaranteed to cure
Coughs, Colds, La Grippe, Bron
chitis and all Throat and Lung
Troubles. Price 50c and fl.00.
Trial bottles free at all drug
stores.
HONEST DEBTS.
A local preacher at the conclu
sion of one of his sermons said:
"Let all in the house wbo are pay
ing their debts stand up." In
stantly every man, woman and
child with one exception rose to
their feet. The preacher seated
them and said: "Now every man
not paying debts stand up." The
exception noted, a careworn, hun
gry looking individual, clothed in
his last summer's suit, slowly as
sumed a perpendicular position.
"How is it my friend," asked the
minister, "that you are the only
one not to meet his obligations ?"
"1 run a newspaper," he meekly
answered, "and these brethren
here who have just stood up are
my subscribers, and, ."
Brutally Tortured.
A case came to light that for
persistent and unmerciful tor
ture baa perhaps never been
equaled. Joe ' Ooloblc of Colusa,
Calif, writes. "For 15 years I eu
dured iusufferable pain from
Rheumatism and nothing reliev
ed me though I tried everything
known. I came across Electric
Bitters and it's the greatest med
icine on earth for that trouble. A
few bottles of it completely re
lieved and cured me." Just as

night while feeling exceptionally
bad I was about to throw down
the evening paper when I saw an
item in the paper regarding the
merits of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure.
I concluded to try it and while I
had no faith in it I felt better aft

better than I have been in years,
and I recommend Kodol Dyspep
sia Cure to my friends and ac

CI0ARS FLAVORED WITH WINE.
During the last year thousands
of barrels of cheap domestic and
imported wine have been shipped
into the town of Rod Lion, York
county, where our friend Dr. C.
N. Trout is located. Yet the in
habitants are not wine drinkers,
and the town is a temperance
centre, with a number of flourish
ing prohibition and temperance
societies. The wine is used in
flavoring domestic tobacco for ci
gar manufacturing. Pennsylvan
ia seed leaf is dipped into tubs of
the spirit and allowed to drain
and dry. The wine imparts to
the tobacco a flavor which is
meant to resemble that of Havana
tobacco. One cigar manufactur
er used more than 300 barrels of
it during the year 1103.

OIRLS HAVE A CHANCE.
After 8 years we are to have
another leap year, 1904 being on
the calendar as such. It was
widely published in 189G that it
was tho only opportunity the la
dies would have for pight years
to exercise their ancient preroga
tive of proposing marriage to
whom they willed. But 8 years
have rolled around and those who
did not avail themselves of that
opportunity will have another.
The year 1900, as has often been
explained, was not leap year be
cause, according to the Grego
rian calendar, every year not di
visible by four without a remain
er, is a leap year, except it bo the
last in a century and then it is a
leap year onlv when divisible by
400 without a remainder. As 1900
was not divisible without a re
mainder it was not a leap year.

We have received the following
letter from Mr.Roy Kemp, of An
fcola, Ind. "1 was in bed four
weeks with la grippe and I tried
many remedies and spent consid
erable for. treatment with physi
cians, but I received no relief un
til I tried Foley's Honey and.Tar
Two small bottles of this medi
cine cured me and now I use it
exclusively in my family." Take
no substitutes. Sold at Trout's
