The Best Physicians Had Given Him Up, But Neuropathy Cured Him. Mr. Henry-A. Groce, one of the pio- neer residents of Elgin, Ill, was saved from "a terrible and lingering death from dropsy and heart disease by means of the wonderful discovery Neuropathy, which teaches that derangements of the brain centers are the principal cause of many diseases. He says: “It is about five years since I took Dr. Miles’ Neuropathic Treatment for dropsy and heart disease. My condi- tion was extremely critical. I experi- enced great difficulty in breathing and could not lie down without smothering. My limbs and body were badly swollen and I became very weak. I had been under treatment by the best physicians of Elgin, and was growing worse every day. They could do nothing to relieve me, and, in fact, gave me up to die. As soon as I consulted Dr. Miles he showed me that my doctors had failed to understand my case and said he could help me. It was wonderful how soon relief came. It was almost in- stantaneous. I was soon a well man. The cure was truly wonderful consider- ing my age, which was seventy at that time. I am now seventy-six years old, and able to enjoy life.” Mr. Groce is only one of the many hundreds of remarkable cures effected by Dr. Miles’ discovery regarding the “Brain Centers.” The Doctor’s repu- tation as a specialist is national. His Heart and Dropsy Cure is a marvel Every person afflicted with disease of the heart, stomach, kidneys, nerves or dropsy, which often complicate each case, should send the Doctor a deserip- tion of his case, and he will send you one thousand testimonials, his Book, and $2.50 Treatment free, Address, Franklin Miles, M. D., LL. B,, Dept. N, Grand Sanitarium, Elkhart, Indiana. A goop thing that didn’t get pushed along :—“Reddy” Walker. Rurus MEvERs is a lucky man. When- ever he comes out for office he always has nothing to run against. WHAT’s the difference between Uncle Alex Crffroth and Charley Uhl? “Your Uncle Alex” is a has-been, while Char- ley Uhlis both a-never-was and a never- will-be. Cuarrey Unr and “Reddy” Walker know by this time that the endorse- ment of the Scull faction is worth about as much as the emty honor of a Democratic nomination. Trae Somerset Scull paper says that one Joseph E. Thropp has been per- manently retired from politics. The same can be truthfully said concerning one George Timothy Scull. Bolters usually have a rocky road to travel. A. HEatoNx RorerrsoN, of New Ha- ven, the recent Democratic candidate for Governor of Connecticut, has set a good example of taking defeat goed- humoredly and light-heartedly. His congratulatory telegram to the vietor- ious Republican candidate was as fol- lows: ‘*Struck by a cyclone. Have just crawled from under. Before I look around I want to extend to you my congratulations for your safety.” Ee Do ~or be afraid of trusts. If they furnish a better article at a cheaper price, they are serving well the general public, and if they attempt to corner the market and put up the price, the laws of trade will settle them as the laws of trade settled the bicycle trust, the shipbuilding trust and the cream- ery trust that went “busted,” and so the laws of trade will settle every trust that attempts to rob the people. The trusts that furnish a better article at a cheaper price, will live because they ought to live—Ex. Paixt No. 1 is the bauner Republican voting precinct in Somerse’, county, or in the United States, so far as heard from. At the recent election Paint No. 1 gave Roosevelt 95 votes, and Parker none. Paint No. 2 gave Roosevelt 150 votes, and Parker one. The balance of the Demecratic ticket didn’t get a vote in Paint No.2. Paint No. 3 gave Roose- velt 72 votes, and 7 to Parker. They know how to paint things in the three Pints, and in Conemaugh township the voters are also onto their job. Conemaugh gave Roosevelt 304 votes, and to Parker 8. New Baltimore was the only precinet in the county carried by the Democrats. The vote there was, Roosevelt, 6 ; Parker, 26. SureLY the days of the millennium are dawning, for we notice that a bet- ter feeling is prevalent in this vicinity between the striking miners and those who are working. Men who a few months ago would pass their fellow men without speaking, are now getting very sociable, and many of them are even expressing a willingness to go “gcabbing,” as they have been calling it. Even the most obstinate of the strikers are getting sociable enough to “cass” the other fellows to their faces, and it’s only a question of time until they will be é@mbracing them. - No strike ever was won by refusing to speak to others, and when men resort to such baby tactics, they only make fools of themselves, if nature has not already done that for them. Iris claimed by the Bocialist man- agers that their party cast 600,000 votes on Tuesday. The Prohibitionists claim to have given their presidential candi- date 300,000 votes. How many votes were cast for Watson, the Populist candidate, is not known. The number, however, is not likely to exceed 300,000 or 400,000. The united Populist and Socialist vote will certainly not exceed 1,000,000. At present writing President Roosevelt’s plurality is fixed at over 2,000,000. It is evident that even though Judge Parker had received the entire Socialist and Populist vote he would still have been badly beaten. Of course there were alarge number of Democrats who did not vote, how many cannot now be estimated. But, never- theless, those who are advocating that the Democratic party should adopt a most radical platform so as to catch the Debs and Watson votes will find cold comfort in these figures. For such a program would certainly repel many more votes that were cast for Judge Parker on Tuesday than the number of Democrats who abstained altogether from voting, and a candidate advocat- ing it would apparently be still more than a million votes short of success.— Pittsburg Post. THE ABLE LEADERS. The New York World says: Under the able leadership of Wil- liam Jennings Bryan, Nebraska has given a plurality of 75,000 to Roosevelt. Under the able leadership of Tom Taggart, Indiana has given a plurality of 60,000 to Roosevelt. : Under the able leadership of Henry G. Davis, West Virginia has given a plurality of 30,000 to Roosevelt. Under the able leadership of David B. Hill and William F. Sheehan, New York above the Bronx has given a plu- rality of 210,000 to Roosevelt. Under the able leadership of Pat Mc- Carren, Brooklyn has given a plurality of 1,800 to Roosevelt. Under the able leadership of James Smith, Jr., New Jersey has given a plu- rality of 75,000 to Roosevelt. The Republican ticket did not suffer from a lack of able leadership among the Democrats. Complimentary Votes. There are some things no man has a right either to ask of another, or to grant for himself. The highest right and the most sacred privilege of citi- zenship resides in the elective fran- chise: Every ballot cast iz supposed to register certain political convictions. A man has no more right to barter those convictions than he has to barter his faith in God, or the virtue of his home. In a popular election a single ballot may decide a cause. Compli- mentary votes count for or against just as much as any other votes Unlike complimentary tickets to a supper or an entertainment, they add materially to the net results. Asking a man for a complimentary vote, other than the vote he would cast, is to ask him to ab- dicate his highest civil privilege. It is a mistaken sense of courtesy that yields to such a request. The request ought never to be made; or if made ought to be courteously, but firmly refused. Every man ought to honor in another the same prerogatives he claims for himself.—Altoona Tribune. Bryan’s Fatal Jaw Bone. A little late, to be sure,but neverthe- less candid and true, is the following editorial statement in the New York “World” of November 9: The extreme and unnecessary state- ment in the platform—'Protection is robbery”—branding as criminal a policy as old as our Government, hurt the Democratic candidate in the chief doubtful states, all of which are heavily interested in manufactures. Bryan wrote that fool thing into the Democratie platform and the Demo- cratic party accepted it. The result is as it should have been: Four years more of Protection. Will the Demo- eratic party learn anything from this overwhelming defeat of November 87 Probably not. It is not built that way. —American Economist. Goosebone’s Frigid Weather. Goosebone Weather Prophet Elias Hartz, of Reading, Pa., has made his first prediction for the season, in which he foretells a severe winter, with great snow storms and big ice crops. “The bone,” he says, “is dark all the way through, and the winter of 1804-06 will be severe. It will start in early in November, and we may expect very cold weather.” THE BLUE LAWS. The agitation for the repeal of Penn- sylvania’s blue laws continues, and much is being written on the subject. ThE STAR'S sentiments on the question are voiced to the letter in the follow- ing editorial from the Connellsville Courier: “So wide and so marked has become the sentiment against the Sunday blue laws, that it is quite probable the present Legislature will materially modify them, A bill to that purpose will be introduced and it will likely pass. It should pass. The present laws are not observed and it is not right nor just that fanat- ical persons should invoke them against the weakest, poorest and most defense- less class of offenders, and permit the rich, strong and most flagrant culprits to go free. Who, for example, would attempt to stop the operation of the railroads? Yet the vendor of peanuts and soda water is arraigned before the outraged majesty of the law and fined for his infraction of the statute that was made before soda water and pea- nuts were known to the human stom- ach, or at least to its indulgence. There is another and a stronger rea- son, however, why the blue laws should be repealed, and if Christians would consider it carefully we doubt not but that they would agree. : All experience has been that efforts to legislate Christianity into men and women have proven dire failures. The Christianity of Christ was not forced. He did not go about with a club com- ‘pelling the Apostles and the people to follow Him. He ruled by Love and not by Fear. The blood of the Martyrs, it will be remembered, was the seed of the Church. Will the Church fail to profit by its own experience? Finally, it has been the policy of the republic since its foundation, and it has been an undeniably wise policy, to eliminate religion from the Constitu- tion and the Laws. This is not a sec- tarian government, but a government of and by all the people. There are in sections of this country many good people whose religious beliefs are en- tirely moral and who are excellent citizens. They also believe in keeping holy and setting aside one certain day in the week for worship. Yet that day is not the Christian Sabbath. Why, in justice and in equity, should they be compelled to observe the Christian Sabbath, when the Christians are not compelled to observe their Sunday? Is this not a denial of personal right not contemplated by the Constitution? The Courier is not to be understood as advocating the abolition of the Sab- bath day, but it does think that there ought to be more freedom of conscience as to its observance. and that public sentiment will be stronger in preserv- ing its integrity than any laws that are or can be made.” The Sweet Sorrow of Parting. “Good-night,” he said ; the parlor light Was soft and dim and low. 2 “Good-night,” he breathed again ;“Good night, It’s time that I should go.” She rose and smiled into his eyes, Then shyly bent her head. : “Good-night,” he murmured, loverwise ; And then, “Good-night,” he said. “Good-night”—Ten minutes later, they Were standing in the hall, But he was on his homeward way. “Good-night”—he was so tall Her head came barely to his heart, And she was fair and slight. “The hour has come for us to part,” He said, “and so, Good-night.” “Good-night”—A half an hour had gone; He had his hat and cane And said that he must hurry on, Then said “Good-night” again. “Good-night,” ‘“Good-night,” night,” and so “Good-night” they ever sighed ; "T'was really time for him to go; “Good-night”—the door swung wide. “Good-night.” he said, and took her hand; An hour or so went by; “Good-night”—They could not under- stand The grayness of the sky. ‘Good-night,” again, and then *Good- night ;” Upon the steps they stood; “Good-night”—he kissed her fingers white, As every lover should. “Good- “Goon-night”—The eastern sky grew pink As though about to blush; *Good-night’’—The stars began to wink, The breezes whispered “Hush.” Soon on their ears there clanged a knell That smote them with affright— The ringing of the breakfast bell— That time he said “Good-night !” —Chieago Tribune. Heard Over the Mutual or Amish Telephone Line. . A lady living out in the country says that a short time ago she was awakes ed about three o'clock in the’ morning by a furious ring of the telephone is her house. Feeling from the wildness: of the ring that somebody was bleed: ing to death, or that somebody's ‘louse wag on fire, she seampered downstairs. and nervously seized the receiver, only to hear a feminine voice up in: the Amish corner shreik the folowing mes- sage in Pennsylvania Dutch: “Mer hen unser. si shun. gaschlocht: dem morria. Shick de Bevy iver a vile noof far a mess leverworsht. De s& sin gore dihenkers fet, en ich denk unser monsleit kenna now sauerkraut en schpeck fressa tsu era satisfaction.

Sour stomach, belching, gas on stomach and all disorders of the stomach that are curable, are instantly relieved and permanently cured by the use of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. 8. P. Storrs, a druggist at 297 Main street, New Britain, Conn.,says: “Kodol Dye- pepsia Cure is giving such universal satisfaction and is so surely becom- ing the positive relief and subsequent cure for this distressing ailment, I feel that I am always sure to satisfy and gratify my customers by recommend- ing it to them. TI write this to show how well the remedy is spoken of here™ Kodol Dyspepsia Cure was discovered after years of scientific experiments and will positively cure all stomach troubles. Sold by E. H.

The fearful things that the types make innocent mortals say are calce- lated to make the recording angel weep, but usually they drive the victim of their depravity to something more strenuous and lurid in the shape of language. Here are a few examples: A popular and prominent man im England was once called upon to ad- dress an assemblage whieh greeted him enthusiastically and with shouts. The newspaper which reported the meeting said innocently, “The vast concourse rent the air with their snouts.” A provincial paper, in reporting the speech of a celebrated politician, in- tending to add as a comment, “and the masses believed him,” instead of which by a typographical error the additiom read, “and them asses believed him.” An enthusiastic editor wrote, “The battle is now opened.” But alas, the compositor spelled the word battle with an “0” and his readers said they had suspected it all along. Rev. Dr. Todd was given some relies to present to a museum. In his speech he alluded to the “lives of the saints.” When his remarks were published they came out “lies of the saints,” and this so enraged the giver of the relics that he demanded their return. An instance of a faithful effort te 1 "follow copy” occured in a New York newspaper office. The reporter. whe wrote a very bad vertical hand, put down that zigzag flashes of lightning played among the clouds, and in the proof it came out that “218,009 flashes™ played among the clouds. A lecturer before a temperance so- ciety told his audience in describing his journeys that he had merely had “=. taste of Naples and Rome.” He was horrified the next day, in reading s report of his lecture to see that he had merely had “a taste of apples amd ram.” Mr. Gladstone on a certain occasiom was reported as accusing Lord Har rington of “shaving his head.” “Shav- ing” ought to have read, “shaking.” Most readers will recollect similar - examples. There is the case of the learned reporter who wrote: “The bride looked au fait.” It appeared “all feet.” MOTHERS PRAISE IT. Mother: everywhere praise One Min- ute Cough Cure for the sufferings it has relieved and the lives of their little ones it has saved. A certain cure for coughs, croup and whooping cough. A. L. Spafford, Postmaster, of Chester, Mich. says: “Our little girl was um- conscious from strangulation duringe sudden and terrible. attack of croup. One Minute Cough Cure quickly re- lieved and cured her and I cannect praise it too highly.” One Minute Cough Cure relieves coughs, makes breathing easy, cuts out phlegm, draws out inflammation, and removes every cause of a cough and strain on lungs.
