At this distance it looks as though llanna
could wait and win tbe full term Senatorship
despite Forakcr and his heelers. With
Hanna a candidate, and MoKJnley and
Sherman known to faror him, his opponents
would have an uphill road to trawl to beat
him lu Ohio.
The President-elect is reperted a being
threatened with an attack of tbe grin. The
politicians have had a tight grip on lilm for
some time past, and are not likely to loosen
their hold for a long time to come. This last
phase of the disease may uot prove filial, bnt
there have been instances on record where it
has had fatal effects.
Thk election of Israel W. Durham, the
nntl-Combliie leader of Philadelphia, is
pUasaut news to bis many friends through
oii t the state, lie is to be congratulated upon
the. handsome majority with which be enters
upon bis Senatorial duties 6,851 to 67. In
tbe matter of. majorities, he is entitled to
r.ink as the banner State Senator.
I'Koi'Kusoit OoBHttrr, ruminating in the
quiet of his retreat in San Francisco, la
ment the decadence of the noble art and
lines it as bis opinion tliat "there is too
niiiclr of theatricals in pugilism tlieee day,"
This is a fine counter on tho.e persons wbi
have seen Professor Corbett ami Professor
.Sullivan on tbe stage and have complained
tlnit there is too much pugilism in our
theatricals these days.
It is sincerely to be hoped, 011 every
account, that the coming head of tbe nation
will adopt no plan which will make lilm
merely a figure-head. Tactful consideration
for members of a Cabinet is one thiug and a
very desirable thing, too. But to surremlor
proper executive influence, prerogative and
leadership would be most unbecoming a man
called to tbe Chief Magistracy of this great
li, public.
Congressman Woodman has wado a sug
gestion before the House Committee on Ways
and Means that, In spite of its tincture of
excise and abandonment of tbo fundamental
principle of revenue, is not without merit.
It is the imposition of a tax of ?50 a thousand
on cigarettes manufactured in this country.
It is an internal revenue, proposition with a
jv-iiity-liaclciBBt -It is argued iu tbe first
place that such a tax would, oven In view of
the restrictions it would place on the con
sumption of cigarettes, raise an important
amount of revenue. While it would not de
prive the adult smoker of bis customary
linarctte for it is a lamentable fact that
there are adults who have succumbed to the
cigarette habit, formed, probably, iu infauey
it would keep the pernicious and dastruc
tive article out of tjis mouths of those to
whom it is most dangerouschildren.
The first annual report of Mr. B. F.
tlilkebon, tbe Commissioner of Hanking,
giving the condition of the Iiuilding and
Loan Associations of the state for the year
1S93, has been receivad. From it we learn
that there are 1,121 associations in the state.
The borrowing members numbered 70,141,
and tbe non-borrowing, lT-1,716 ft very
healthy proportion. The total receipts for
the year were $41,505,301. The Department
in a- investigations found 17 associations In
solvent, and they were placed in the hauds
of receivers. Ten of these were in Alleiheny
county, and were generally what are called
National Building Associations. No building
association official now doubts the wisdom of
e.tablibhing the supervision exercised by
tins Department, however much be may
hive objected to it at first. Mr. Qllkeson
de-orves much praise for the efficient manner
in which he has discharged bis duties. The
recommendations that he makes to the
Legislature should receive careful considera
tion, and adopted with suoli amendment as
they may think nesessary.
The way to build up a community is for
neighbors to stand by one a Bother. Buy
nothing abroad that may just as ad van
tagsously be purchased at home. If yon
have money to loan you can generally find
mnie enterprising individual or corporation
at home th.it will pay fairly and regularly
for tbe um of it, aad at the same time giving
security that your own familiarity with
home aff.uiB tells you is sufficient. By thus
investing at home you not only find a safe
place for your idle money, but you have the
satisfaction of knowing that you are
ing in enterprises that will give employment
to those iu whom you feel a neighborly in
teiest, and thus are directly instrumental in
building up tbe section where increase of
bukiuesi, menus increase of prosperity to all
the various interests iu which you are most
concerned. You loan your oney, more
over, to tlo.be who do not consider the pos
sissiou of means a crime, nor tbe
holder of a mortgage a highway robber.
There an- in mv people in Shenandoah be

Urge returns have not materialised. If yoo4

Miss Wright is 22 years old, and was

romantic love affair. In the fall of
1896, while Miss Wright was visiting
one of Sir Edmund's oastlss In War

was hemmed In by flames In one of the
wings of the building. Sir Edmund saw
lier danger, wrapped himself In a nbeet

up the Insensible beauty, wrapped hr
In the sheet and ran through the flames
to safety. Sir Edmund's hair and eye
brows were burned bo that he was quits
bald and his sight was threatened.

HOW TO FIND OUT.
Fill a bottlo or common water glass with
urine and let It stand twenty-four hours; a
sediment or settling indicates a diseased con
ditllm of the kidiioys. When urine stains
linen it is positive evidence of kidney
trouble. Too frequent desire to urinate or
pain in the back, is also convincing proof
that tbe kidneys and bladderare out of order.
WHAT TO DO.
Tborels comfoit In the knowledge so often
exprested, that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root,
the great kidney remedy, fulfills every wish
in relieving pain iu the back, kidneys, liver,
bladder and every part of the urinary pas
sagos. It corrects inability to bold urine aud
scalding pain in passing It, or had effects fol
lowing use of Manor, wine Of beer, aud over
comes that unpleasant ueossslty of being
compelled to get up many tinise during the
night to urinate. The jalld and the ex
traordinary effect of Swamp-Root is soon
realized. It stands the highest for its wonder
ful cures of the most distressing cases. If
you need a medicine you should have the
best. Sold by druggists price fifty cents and
one dollar. For a sample bottle and pamph
