RECORD OF THE PAST

No Stronger Evidence Can Be

Look well to their record. What they have done many times in years gone by, is the best guarantee of future results. Anyone with a bad back ; any reader suf- fering from urinary troubles, from any kidney ills, will find in the following evi- dence proof that relief and cure is near st hand:

Mr. Patrick O. Dwyer, mason, of 62 White street, New Haven, Conn, says : " In 1896 when Doan's Kidney Pillschred me of backsche which always bothered me when I canght cold, which hurt me when I stooped, or straightened after stooping, which refused to disappear nn- der treatment of different medicines, I was only too pleased to let the people of New Haven know the fact through our newspapers. Three years from that date, or in the month of May, 1899, I just as ardently recommend Doan's Kidney Pills as I did when they effected the cure mentioned above. My advice to anyone suffering from kidney complaint is, call at # drug store, procure Doan's Kidney Pilis, take them as directed, and you will be surprised at the results."

CANNOT LOCATE GRAVE.

Trouble In Placing the Monnment for President Lincoln's Mother.

Recent investigation as to the site of the grave of President Lincoln's mother in Spencer county. Ind., has raised a serious doubt as to whether the exact spot can be located when the time comes for the Indiana com- mission to erect a monument and im- prove the grounds, and there is much question as to whether the stone that now marks the grave is really over the grave of Mrs. Lincoln.

Some time after the burial of Mrs. Lincoln the bodies of Dr. Cessna and Mrs. Gentry, pioneers of the county. were buried near the grave of Mrs Lincoln, but for many years no stone marked any of the graves. When the headstone was placed at out of the graves supposed to he that of the president's mother. there were con- flicting opinions regarding which grave contained the body that it was desired to mark, and the stone was placed in position without a certainty as to the faet.

Since then there hns heen mueb cis- cussion of the matter. but nu antisfac- tory conclusion has been reached. De- scendants of Dr. Cessna and Mrs. Gen- try now live in Spencer and Dubois connties In' none of them are able to say where the hadies were buried. except that the three graves were very close together

APOLOGIZES TO NETHERSOLE.

Washington I'nstor Disclaims Any Intention of Libet un Well- Konwn Aetrexa.

Rev. Dr. Chalmers Eastou. pastor of the Eastern Presbyterian church. Washington, made a statement to his congregation at the close of his ser- mon the other night with reference t , the suit for slander instituted aguins! him a few days ago by Miss Olga Nethersole. the actress. He said in Dart:

"When I quoted the words 'lewd ar. tress.' in speaking of Miss Olga Nether. sole in the role of Saphr. I had refer- ence not to her personal character. ut which I have no knowledge, but to the character of the role she is playing 1 had not the slightest intention of de - nouncing Miss Nethersole's personal character, but that of the persons she impersonated, involving, as it does, a widespread and pernicious inAnence upon society. This explanation is given so ast le as public as the original dia- course."

NOW AND THEN.

How ihs New York Journal Viswad the Expan- slan Polley Only Two Short Years Ago. "Lest we forget" some nf the bright and true things which young Mr. Hearst's Bryan organ, the New York Journal, said, It will be well to refer to bis dles

The chief organ of Bryan and Bryan- Ism In New York In the present cam- paign is this same New York Journal. Adopting the polley announced by the Democratic candidate himself at Indlan- apolis, The Journal is now loud and con- stant In Its denuncintion of "Imperial- lam" and Is doing Its utmost to as- slat In electing the man who haa de- clared that bls first act as president would be to call congress together for the purpose of withdrawing our forces and hauling down our flag In the Philip- pines.

Mr. Bryan's Inconsistencles In regard to the Pklilppine question have been frequently pointed out, and It Is In order now to point out the corresponding In- consistencies of his organ, the New York Journal. This can be done very readily and without the slightest difficulty by quoting from the editorial pages of The Journal during 1898 and 1899. The fol- lowing editorial opinions of The Journal are extracted verbatim from the files of that paper, and serve to show what its present opinions are worth. No

comments are appended. No comments are necessary. The public will make Its own comments:

New York Journal, Sept. 14, 1998. Don't give up a foot of the Phillp- pines!

New York Journal, Dec. 16, 1898. We have demanded from the first the annexation of Hawall: we demanded the war; we demanded the acquisition of territory in the West Indies and the re- tention of the Philippines. We now de- mand the government of our new terri- torles as Integral parts of this country.

New York Journal, Aug. 17. 1898. The capture of Manila has made us masters of the Philippines, and the American diplomat who would give them up would find it advisable to stay abroad for the rest of his life.

New York Journal. Aug. 10, 1898. American blood has been spilled at Ma- nila Every drop was a sacrifice to the cause of liberty, No retrent from the Philippines!

New York Journal, July 1, 1838. Men who use their brains to think with are not to be bulHed by phrases. "Imperialism" for instance. That word comes down like a portcullis before a gnod many minds, and the blows of fact and argument beat against it In vnin. The Philippines are in point. A splendid naval victory has made us masters there. Should we keep them or give them up? An "imperialism" which means the spread of American power, free institutions and human hap- plness is not an "Imperialism" to be feared by anybody who has faith In the vitality of this republic and confidence In the democratic principles on which it is founded.

This list of quotations from The Jour- nal before the gammon of the "para- mount issue" had struck It. might be continued to double the space given here. but the ahove ought to suffice to show the sober sense of The Journal when In Ita rigbt mind.

Campaign Notes.

An Austrian has patented sn elec- Ho apparatus for preventing a colll- alon between trains, having an auto- matic brake-operating device on each ngine, with wires beside the track, having contacts arranged at Intervals to close a portion of the circuit and stop a train following too closely.

Hand brakes, to assist in the stop- ping of tralna were introduced as early &#' 1849. Twenty years later the air brake was patented, which enabled power from the locomotive to be trans- mitted through hose simultaneously to the brakes of all the cars In a train- s wonderful Invention, In 1863 the coaches were connected by patent oonplers, another measure of strength and safety.

Considerableattention, says the Rail- way and Engineering Review, is being devoted .to the project of opersting the cross town lines of street cars in New York with compressed air.

The Kind You Have Always Bought

A Mammtied Fox.

A wonderful old oak fell the other Jay In the royal forest of Ait-Lietze- zoercke. It had flourished for more than 400 years, and there was not in the entire forest another tree quite an stately or robust. The head forester, hearing of its fall, ordered that it be cut Into convenient sections and re- moved. While thia was being done the workmen noticed that the hase of the trunk was hollow, and a closer Inspection showed that there was some kind of an animal within this broad cavity. It proved to be a fox, which had been severely wounded, and had sought shelter in this retreat. As the body has been completely mum- mifled, it Is supposed that at least 200 pears have passed since the poor ani- tual went Into the tree to die. The body, when found, was enrled up, and so admirably was it preserved that one would have said Reynard was sleeping .- N. Y. Herald.

A Atriy of Virginia.

When the District of Columbia was first established it was ten miles square, and took in the city of Alex- andria. After some years Virginla de- mired to have the part in that state receded, and the part of the square In that state was turned back to the Jurisdiction of Virginia. Recently there has been shown a disposition to let part of the old territory in Vir- ginia come back, possibly becanse the government Is likely to expend more money in improvements if It holds the territory than Virginia is ever likely to do. Gen. J. M. Wilson has approved in his official capacity a proposition to retrocede Virginia territory np to two miles of the original Virginla line of the district. This will, if agreed to, put under the jurisdiction of the United States a strip of Virginia which It Is desired by several per- sons to subject to a plan of extensive Improvement .- N. Y. Times.

The Universal Meridian, The meridian of Greenwich Is gen- erally accepted as the starting line from which to reckon longitude and time all over the earth. But objections are from time to time raised against the universal adoption of the Green- wich meridian for such purposes. Re- cently Italian savants have emphasized these objections by pointing out that on the meridian of Greenwich clouds and bad weather are frequent, interfer- ing with astronomical observations. They suggest that the civilized world sbould agree to adopt the meridian of Jerusalem as a common reference line. hecause there the skies are clearer and the possibility of making Palestine nen. tral territory would eliminate politienl objections .- Youth's Companion.

Had to Be Taught.

a Returning from school witb pumpkin seed in her hand. a little girl informed her mother that her teacher had tought her that the seed was white but the pumpkin was yellow. The mother asked: "What is the col- or of the vine?"

The five-year-old said that her teach- er bad not tanght ber that.

"Ent." said her mother, "you know you have seen the vines In the gar- den."

"Of course I have, but we are not expected to know anything until we have been taught."-Cincinnati En- quirer.

Not Prepared.

An ecountrie Maiue preacber was re- cently driving along a country road. and. overtaking a young man tramping his weary way on foot. invited him to a seat in his sleigh. After be was com- fortably seated tbe preacher rolled the whites of his eyes up under the visor of his cap and said, in sepulchral tones: "Young man, are you prepared to die ?""
