CITIZENS PLEASE NOTE.
Burin? the plavlog of the National
lie saw tne
hole in the
sack when he
was filling it.
But it was
such a little
hole that he
thought it
wouldn't mat
ter. Out of
that little hole
he lost his
grain while
taking it to
market.
It's that way
with holes in
the health.
None are so
small but life
can leak out
of them.
"I've got a little touch of indigestion"
says one man. Another says "my
stomach feels a little out of sorts." It
is just such little things which if neg-
lected intra n the total loss of health.
The one medicine for disorders and
tHuscs o! tin: stomach and organs of
digestion and nutrition is Dr. Pierce's
Gptden Medical Discovery. It increases
the activity of the whole digestive and
nutritive system clears away obstruc-
tions stops the loss the body sustains by
undigested or partly digested food puri-
fies the blood lrom the poisons resulting
from imperfect digestion and increases
the secretions of the blood - making
glands. "Golden Medical Discovery"
has a wonderful record of cures of so-
called "hopeless" cases.
Mr. Thofi. H. Kiidasill. of Henry Lincoln Co..
TJ. C-.sajs: "Alter having suffered from inaction
of th UVer and ail the troubles usually attending
such a condition for over twenty years and having-
deluged my Bystent with floods of medicine
from every available source and being only
temporarily benefited thereby I applied to your
Institution for treatment You instructed me to
take a course of Ir. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis-
covery whivli 1 am now doing. Although un-
abltojtrictly follow directions 1 have derived
more actual benefit from the few bottles I have
taken so far than from all the other remedies
together
Ai:j me to thank you for your prompt and
cpmrfrous attention to ray case as well as for the
g-ood rectived from it."

The movement for securing the

El Pao is oroereseinfir favorably. It
will be remembered that S. M. Davis

senators and congressmen calling
their attention to the arguments in
favor of the establishment of

replies from Senator Cockrell of Miss
ouri Senators Teller and Wolcott and
Congressmen Bell and Shafrotb of
Colorado. A few days ago Secretary

Representative Stephens enclosing

Davis as printed in the Herald and
requesting them to interest themselves
in the matter and introduce bills in the
senate acd the house for the establish
ment of a mint here If in their judg
ment the chances were good for the
passage of such bills. The following
replies were received:

ever It being probable that congress

believe anything can be accomplished
at this sasioa. But la the meanwhile
I will see the dlreotor of the mint and
have a full conference with him as to
wht is praotloable under existing
oonaitioss.

W....W...--W-.. ..W-..--W-....-V-..--K
Sauire Unrdinir had a hobby. It was
health. He would marry none but
healthy woman.
Gladys ttny had just romo from
year's stay with Lor grandparents
New York and was barely 10. Pretty
Well that is no word for it. Blio wa
Just as lovely ns a new Mown rone.
And she was as good as she wns pretty
and as loving as she was good and every
one would have 6cen it was out of the
question for her to marry Scjuire Hard
inc. a worldly man of 4(h with a shrewd
eye for the main chance.
She was just as unselfish as a sun
beam as impulsive as a kitten as guile-
less as a violet and cared nothing for the
position Squire Harding conld offer his
wife. She never knew what to say to
him when he came to Clematis cottage
as her home was called was afraid of
hid bass voice and shy of his facetious-
ness. and yet he came and rame and hft
father encouraged his suit and Gladys
was told she must agree to marry him.
Must because business was dull and
there was a mortgage on Clematis cot
tage and there was no sense in a oh-l
fusing such a chance. Of course she
would never have another like it in a life
time.
She had no mother but her brothers
protested telling her that she was
goose and at last the poor girl was har
assed into making a half promise that
"perhaps some time she would."
But her father at once set in motion
preparations for the wedding and sent
for Aunt Phopbe.
Aunt Phoebe was an uncommonly bkiil
fnl needlewoman but what was more in
Gladys' case she wns a person with
heart.
One morning she went into Gladys'
chamber and found the girl hastily put
ting away a letter a letter postmarked
New York and directed to herself in the
boldest and handsomest of chirography.
Having pnt the letter under lock and
key Gladys turned silently to be meas
ured for a new embroidered waist.
"Are you tired Gladys?"' Aunt Phoebe
asked.
"A little" replied the girl.
"Didn't you rest well last night?"'
"Not very."
"Gladys you are my dear dead sister's
child. Tell me what ails you.
"Oh auntie my heart aches!"
And she put her face on the broad wo
manly shoulder and burst into tears.
"There there dearie! I knew it was
heart trouble. Tell auntie all about it.
I don't believe you want to marry Squire
Harding."
"I don't I don't!" sobbed Gladys.
"Then yon shan't marry him! I'll put
a stop to this work sure as my name is
Phoebe Ray! I don t know how bow but
I will!"
One morning she presented herself at
Squire Harding's door and was shown
into his private room where be received
his clients.
Sit down madam sit down" said the
squire.
"The subject of my call is my niece.
"Ah!"
"Yes. I suppose you will be deeply in
terested in this?"
"Certainly certainly! Anything which
concerns my pretty little Gladysl Ah
that is an uncommon girl Mrs. Ray so
gentle so fair so healthy"
"Ahem!" croaked Aunt Phoebe omi
nously.
"What dear Mrs. Ray! Is not GlaJya
well?"
"Far from it!"
"Yon amaze me! Has some outrageous
disease approached that lovely girl T'
Aunt Phoebe shook her head and sol-
emnly said:
"Chronic."
"What what is it?"
"A heart trouble" pronounced Aunt
Phoebe solemnly. "What the poor child
suffers from it no words can tell."
"Yes yes! Well now my dear lady
what course ought I to pursue under
these remarkable circumstances? With
my peculiar views on the subject of
health my very decided views 1 really
cannot be expected to proceed as if fit
the circumstances were different."
"I don't know anything about that. I
cannot advise you. Bnt I feel aa if I
had done my duty.
"But I an I honorably retaaet? Can
I withdraw from my proposal?"
"My brother-in-law is of a very eholeri
temper. 1 cannot say. Bnt yew aright
be called away."
"I am called away. 1 have argent
business in Liverpool and I am tbe man
who should be on the spat. No indirect
agency will prevail. I shall go abroad at
once Mrs. Ray. And Miss Gladys she
Is very pretty no donbt may supply my
place in the course of a year with some
one who who has not the peculiar and
very decided views on health that 1 bold.
And you since you seem a lady of un-
common sense and superior ideas of the
fitness of things will perhaps use yeur
influence to to"
"Certainly to smooth my niece's path-
way of course."
So the conversation came pacifically to
an end and two days later the squire
sailed for Liverpool. The news came to
the Rays like a thnnderbolt for the fa-
ther and son had prospectively secured
a large slice of the good fortune from
Gladys' wedding the rich squire. But he
was gone for a year or more report said
and after a furious and senseless aor
against Gladys the poor girl wns left tn
peace.
When Aunt Phoebe went home to her
quiet seaside dwelling at Bay part she
took Gladys with her on a visit Md one
day she privately wrote a letter te Dock
Archer who she had learned through
Gladys' grandfather was a mst promis-
ing young man.
The result of this letter was to bring
the young gentleman alsa to Baypart Oh
a visit and the young people had plenty
of time In which to plight their vows and
take wise counsel with good A nut Phoebe.
Through her influence Archer was soon
prosperously established in life and now
in happy motherhood happy and rosy
