In the Garflold-Hancook campaign there was a big Democratic meeting at a certain place in tit. Charles county, in this state. A number of distinguished Dumoorutio speakers were thore, and we had a day of it The writer was then a small child, bat one of the speukers mudo a very profound impression upon bis mind. The spoaker was no other than Champ Clurk. No one asks now, "Who was Champ Clark?" but then be was a new star in the Armament. We had a number of speeches, and the children were very tired. I can t spea for the grown people, because the good Democrats there would not have owned to being tired, I know, after sucb a die play of eloquence from their great party leaders. At any rato I was tired, but my mother whispered : "Thore is ouJy one moro speech,' aud I wus much relieved. A blond young man was introduced as Chump Clark of Pike county. He came forward with a pleasant fuce and manner thut nt once attracted my attention. Be began in this way : "I am reminded of the boy who kill ed a possum and expected to enjoy possum dinner the next day. The fara ily was about to sit down to the dinner table when a wagon drove up uud neighbor's family came in. Tho head of the house announced that the visitors had come to dinner. There was no room at the table for our young friend, the sportman, and he waited, with his eyes anxiously fixed on the dish of possum The guests had good appetites. Finally there was only one piece of possum left, and one of bis own family took that. Then the possum lover busted right out a-cryiug. The disappointment was too much fur him. "My friends," continued Mr. Clark, 'I am in that same condition. When I heard the first speech, I thought, well- that is pretty bad, but still I have some thing left to say. Then there came the next speech, and the next, and when the last speaker finished I just busted right out a-orying, because there was not an other thing left for me to say. " But there was, and he said it too. He awakened that audience till, you could hoar its applause a mile away. I think that that was probably the first time Champ Clark ever spoke in St Charles county. He carried book home with bim the thanks and appreciation of a good many of bia bearers that day. St Louis Republic You Nice New Womanl This may be the era of tho new vrom an, devoted to intellect, philanthropy politics and science, aud ignoring pretty feininiuo fuds, but one would not suppose her reign an entirely com pro honsive one to rend ull the literature of fashion that is boinir published,- and not only published, but read with uvidi ty. Perhaps the new woman hersolf has been unable to eliniiiiiito wholly from hor complex anil superior being the fond, trivial records of toilets, gowns, textures unci trimmings aud can uot resist an indulgence more or less socret in the sumo. At any rato, there has been un tinio when women genera ly dressed more becomingly and so well as the preseut.

IMIIRVILLE. ft fi YORK. H.f. Bow Mine Are Bought Nowaday. The time has passed when mine prop erties are bought on assays. The higher the ore goes the more suspicions the in vestor becomes. A mining proposition, to receive attention in these days, must have a reasonable assay value, and must stand the test of expert examination. A low grade camp, it is said, is better in the long run for the mine owner, and infinitely better for a community in which such mines are situated, as more men are employed and more money is taken out than in camps where the mines are narrow and rich. This is shown in the Ccsur d'Alenes, where over 60,000 tons of ore are mined monthly to produce 10,000 tons of con centrates. Every one is benefited where such conditions prevail. Mine investors have become suspicious because in the past they have been most unmercifully worked by unscrupulous mining men and promoters. Mine ex porting has become a science, and it is a difficult thing to improve upon a mine expert of national reputation, and only men of this character are employed to pass upon a mining proposition the pur chase of which involves tbe expenditure of large sums of money.

President Isaac Lewis ot Sablna, Ohio, Is highly respected all through that section. He has lived in Clinton Co. 75 years, and has been president of the Subina Bank 20 years. He gladly testifies to the merit of Hood's 8ursa- parilla, and what he says is worthy attention. All brain workers find Hood's Sarsaparilla peculiarly adapted to their needs. It makes pure, rich, red blood, and from this comes nerve, mental, bodily and digestive strength. "I am glad to say that Hood's Sarsapa rilla is a very good medicine, especially as a blood purifier. It has done me good many times. For several years I suffered greatly with pains ol Neuralgia In one eye and about my temples, es pecially at night when I had been having a hard day ot physical and mental labor. I took many remedies, but found help only In Hood's Sarsaparilla which cured me ot rheumatism, neuralgia and headache. Hood's Sarsaparilla has proved Itself a true friend.

At Washington the attempt to cut down thewaResof the women employed in repairing the mail sacks has arotied a storm of indignation. "These women have tbe most unwholesome, repulsive and ill paid work that Uncle Sam has to dispense, " says The Woman's Trib une. It is as much as a person accus tomed to breathe pure air oan do to per form an errand at the back part of the postofflce where these filthy mail sacks are in use. But women work over them at piece work, and can earn but from 50 to 00 cents a day. Yet when there is an attempt to reduce the price, women complaining are told by the authorities that if they do not care to work at the price they need not, as there are plenty of others who would be glad of the op portunity. " Senator Call has introduced a resolution to put the women on daily wages. Patroolxlnc Infanta. A characteristic) instance was given at a dinner party lately of the present day tendency for children to patronize their parents. At a preparatory school the children were told to write down what they thought to be the object of educa tion. One small boy wrote, "Tbe object of education is to be able to talk for your father and mother when yon go abroad," and another boy, doubtless re membering the oft repeated reflection at home, when he bad fallen into some scrape, that "the holidays would soon be over and be wonld be safely back at school," wrote, with uncon scions cyni cism, "The object of education is to get yon onto your parents' way. "Gentlewomen. Paine's Celery Compound. Mrs. Sample Owes Her Strength ! Ali Remedies. to This the Best of For the unfortunates who lie awake, staring at tbe ceiling and oonntiug tbe strokes of the dock, every sleepless night is an eternity. Mrs. J. A. Sam- pie of 1658 Broadway, New York city, was afflicted with insomnia until her nerves were on the verge of pros tration. She thinks her condition was dne to indigestion. Here is what Mrs. Sample says: "I have used Peine s celery com pound with marked and decided bene fit. It is especially useful in insomnia, arising from indigestion and poorly nourished nerves. "I should add that my grand-daugh ter, Vera HaQeigh, was so thin and puny at the age of ten as to cause the greatest anxiety. We had no difficulty in inducing her to take Paine's celery compound. Today the roses bloom in her cheeks, and I never taw a healthier, stronger child than Paine's oelery compound has made her. " . The brain is the center of the nerv ous system. Sleep alone rests this vital organ, together with the nerves. Dur ing Jhewsjrinjrhoursthen tern works inoepsantly. Poor fleep means a poor nervous condition, and prolonged insomnia leads in every case to prostration, aud too often to dread insanity. The mischief that results from weakened nerves is ruuoh greater and more destructive than most folks even dream of. The all-important thing for nervous, run-down persons, and for those who are losing sleep is that Paine's oelery onmponnd builds np the whole physi cal system, and by improving the di gestion and regulating the nerves it in sures sound, refreshing sleep. In win ter most women and many men lead hothouse lives. A flagging appetite, a disposition to pick at this dish and that, rather than to eat a square meal, is among the early indications of fail ing health. Thou comes delay in fall ing asleep and the fretful, uneasy feel ing the next day. Deliverance from suoh a miserable condition by tbe nse of Paine's celery compound has caused men and women from every section of the United States to write sincere, hearty words of praise and thankfulness for this grand invig orate ir. People enjoying perfect health sometimes wonder at this gratitude; but whoever has suffered from prostra tion of the nerves, of which insomnia is one of the symptoms, will under stand how hard it is to overstate the torment of this condition. And who ever has been made completely well by Paine's oelery 00m pound feels that no words can overstate the joy and grati tude suoh persons feci. w This is the state of mind of thou sands of nervous, sickly broken-down persons who have used Paine's celery oumpound and been made well. Mrs. Sample tells of the happy result in the case of her grandchild. One ot the most conspicuous instances of tbe remarkable power of Paine's oelery oomponnd over debility is shown in the relief it has afforded children. Of course the dose is adapted to the age of the little patient. The oomponnd pur ifles the blood and oorreots any tend enry to constipation. Pale, puny children are made vigorous, rosy and healthy by this incomparable remedy.
