Sir James Grant highly interested the learned members of tho British association with a description of his "youth giv ing machine," as It is called unscien tifically. Sir James calls tho instru ment a "neurostone." Dry cells supply electricity to the neurostono which acts directly on In active nervous centers; or those which are poisoned, In effect, by noxi ous gases formed in the system as a person grows older. Electricity, as Sir James Grant applies It, clears out, stimulates these nerve centers, gives new vigor to them and so greatly lengthens the span of life. Sir James told the scientists that by using tho neurostono ho himself has been enabled to give up eye glasses, which he had used for years, and that it has made him generally more active, younger. The fact that the neurostono Is tho first Instrument to aid the human di gestion by means of electricity has aroused intense Interest, especially in Canada, for some reason. At first the members of the asso ciation listened incredulously to Sir James Grant as If they knew a quack was 'expounding his fallacies to them, but after his lecture they crowded around him asking: "At what instrument maker's can I procure a neurostone?" It may be added that nearly all these savants are old men, so perhaps they were not thinking entirely of their patients. NOTICE TO TAX-PAYERS.

Each recurring attack of rheuma tism makes tho disease harder to control, but tho fact that it Is not in itself dangerous causes people to neglect it, awaiting a change or a settled condition of tho weather for relief. It is often only after the dis ease has become so serious as to in terfere with business that tho suf ferer will seek more than temporary relief. Chamberlain's Liniment is a remedy for rheumatism which any ono can apply. It not only gives prompt relief from pain, but in a large majority of cases It brings about permanent results. The first application will surprise and delight you as immediate relief is almost sure to follow. For sale by JOHN PREUSS. Steamer Flyer lawiiorn & Mcculloch, Owners. ivo. Marshfield Lvo.

ME Made Possible by Recent Robust, Constructive Republican ' ' Policy. Convention Between America and England in Effect Oct. 1 Its Blessings to Foreign Born Citizens. ORDER NO. 1007. The Tostnl Administration of Great Britain having concurred therein: It Is hereby ordered, That, commenc ing on the 1st day of October, 1003, the postage rate applicable to letters mailed In United States, addressed for delivery at any place In the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland, shall be two (12) cents uu ouuee or frac tion of an ounce. Letters unpaid or short paid shall bo dlsKttclied to destination, but double the deficient postage, calculated at s.ild rate, shall be collectible of the ad dressees upon tho delivery of the un paid or short paid letters. G. V. L. MHYDR, Postmaster General. Behind this simple statement Is n vast amount of Republican construc tive legislation which resulted in the significant accomplishment, set forth by the Postmaster General. It Is elo quently prophetic of a world-wide pen ny postage, for which the credit will bo due to a Republican administration. Sixth Uiilverxnl Iotnl CunKres. The Sixth Universal Postal Congress convened In tho city of Rome, Italy, April 7 and continued until May 20, 1000. Sixty-five countries. Including the United States, were represented. The assembly Ans for the purpose of dis cussing the postal systems of all nations nnd, If possible, agreeing upon measures for the lnipiovement in nil practical ways, of the regulations governing In ternational Intercourse through tho malls. The first congress of this kind met in Berne, Switzerland, in 137-1. The United States Poslofllco Depart ment was represented In this World Postal Congress by two delegates the Superintendent of Division of Foreign 'Malls, ns In previous postnl congresses, and the Hon. Edward Rosewntcr of tho Omaha Bee, who had nlso served In the preceding postal congress. Mu fnr Uiilurmil I'cnny Potnne. At this Universal Postnl Congress representatives of the United Stutes proposed a universal two-cent postago to all nations. The 'Hon. J. Ilcnnlker Heaton, M. P., who Is tho father of the two-cent Idea In England, speaking of America's action ut the Rome conven tion, In standing out for a universal two-cent postal rate, said : "The British members stood coldly by. They did not recognize that this was a great historic occasion, a worthy porallel of that solemn scene on July 4, 177(1, when the Declaration of Inde pendence was adopted; for If tho Americans ore willing to adopt a penny postago to all paits of the world, It fol lows that they are willing to establish It to the British Empire and form with US a 'Itcstrlctlve Postal Union.' " The Hon. Whltelaw Held, America's Republican minister to tho Court of St. James, praised the work of the Ameri can delegation and solicited tho friendly co-operation of the British government at a Fourth of July banquet speech In London In 1000. Mr. Bold said: "Tho American people hoped for closer and cheaper communications with nil other nations as the best means of promoting better acquaintance and perpetuating lrlendship. They were gratified to find that the British apostle of penny postage (Mr. I lea ton) at tills moment focusing his efforts on what ought to bo tho easy task of persuad ing the authorities on both sides of the Atlantic, that It was as cheap to carry a letter from London to New York ns from London to Calcutta ; or from Now York to Manila and quite oo useful." American JIoimiIiIIc-imin I.cml (lie "Vnj- So It has come to pass that the Unit ed States, under Its Republican admin istration, has finally succeeded In en teilng into a convention with Great Britain whereby nftcr tho 1st of Octo ber this year, a two-cent postage rate will obtain between this country and England, Ireland, Scotland und Wales. We already have such nn arrangement with, Canada, Mexico, Cuba, Panama nnd our colonial possessions. This great accomplishment Is universally recog nlzod as the proper beginning which Is to result In a universal two-cent postage rate around the world. Important Til In km Arnoiiipllmlieil. Two other Important things that the Republican administration accomplish ed ut the Rome Universal Postal Con gress through Its representatives, must not be lost slcht of. One was the adop tion of a universal return coupon stamp, in exchange for which, upon Its presentation at a postofike In another couutry, the person presenting It shall receive a postage stamp of tho value of 0 cents, good In any country of the world, thus enabling people hero to prepay postago at regular rateH upon reply letters. The other significant concession was that In all World Postal Congresses to bo held In the future, tho United States U to bo grauted an additional vote, in view of its island possessions; so thai at all future congresses our country will bo entitled to two votes, as against ono vote each cast by every other na tion hi the world. Fraction! Ilcncflta to tho Feopl. No doubt the Democrats may lnquiro ns to what all this has to do with tho welfare of American citizens. For their enlightenment and Information it tfiay be stated that, nccprdlng to tho United States census of 1000, the for eign born population In the rUnited States at that time was 10.4G0.085. Tho population, born of foreign parentage (ono or both parents having been born In foreign countries) wns 20,198,030, or a total foreign population of 30, 030,024. The report of' tho Immigra tion Commissioner by years since then shows that 6,008,050 have slnco como to America, thus eking out the total foreign population at the present tlmo to 40,327,080. This does not take any note of Increase since 1000 In American-born children, one or both of whosa parents are of foreign blood. Estimat ing that only one-half of tills number 21,CC3,810 write one letter to foreign countries every two weeks, or 20 weeks each year, we have 120,083,0-10 letters written annually, which, nt the present rate of 5 cents postage each, amounts to nu expenditure of $0,409,152 annu ally. Under the present postal law foreign correspondents may send let ters to the United States "collect," but when they reach their destination tho recipient must pay double -postage. Fig uring the double postage on tho samo basis, the foreign population of tho United States pays during .each year, for postage under tho present system, $10,497,450. Under the new and cheaper postal charges advocated by tho Republican party, should tho 2-ceut rnte become universal, tho foreign population'- in the United States, to their direct cor respondents, would only pay $3,249,570 annually for direct postago and $9,748, 728; for letters ent to them from for eign countries "collect," la other, words, this Republican measure will save the highly esteemed adopted citi zens of our country, and those born here df foreign parentage $12,908,254 nnnually, In the necessary correspond ence with their loved ones abroad.. But perhaps tho Democrats do ' not think this is worth while. Soma GlnrliiK InconIitonolc. At present an American can send a letter 5,000 miles by land -say from Mexico to Alaska for 2 cents but must pay f cents for a letter of, holf the weight sent 3,100 miles to England. An Englishman pays 5 conts onu let ter crossing the Atlantic, 3,100. miles, and 2 cents on one crossing tho Indian and South Pacific Oceans,' 10,000 mjlcs, to (Now Zealand. All this Is to bo rem edied on October the first next, thanks to an enlightened Republican 'adiululu-. tratlon. ) World: Ii Ituaily tfir Reduction. It will probably be but a short' tlmo after the convention between this coun try and England goes Into effect,; luntlli, the dream of a universal 2-cent-letter postage, championed by the. Republican party, will be realized. Australia, New Zealand and Egypt havo already called for the 2-ceut rate. The Emperor of Germany has said that if EnglawT'es tnblishes a 2-cent 'postage- rate With the United States, he will have Ger many do the same. Francejiniltaly, South Africa, Japan, Belgium, - Hol land, Denmark and Sweden wouldtuued llttlo more than an Invitation to fol low suit. A 2-cent postal rato would bind all tho South American republics and tho United States still more closely togeth er Into a peaceful, reciprocal, progres sive, civilization, which would mean a more rapid development of both Ameri can continents and a new 'application of the Monroe doctrine. With these couutrles agreed, on tho object idoslred, tho continent of Europo nlone. would then be wholly outsido this compre hensive postal union, and then tho, continental powers would not long stand aloof from It. It has remained for tho United States to take tho lnltlatlvo In a' move to reap the great glory of being tho j.Ioneers of n world wldei2-cont post age. Mlll'inp of our citizens will feel almost as grateful for this beneficent aot as nillli'Ji.R of slaves did, whtn, th Republican party broke the shackles tiiul bound tl'em to perpetual plijuicul fi'rvlccs. BRYAN'S POLICIES DESTRUCTIVE. Mr. Taft Compares Republican and Uemocratlo Platforms. (From Mr. Toft's Speech of Accp-, tance.) Tho chief difference between the.Re-j publican and tho Democratic platforms Is tho difference which has heretofore been seen between the policies of Mr. Roosevelt and those which have been advocated by the Democratic candidate, Mr. Bryan. Mr. Roosevelt's policies havo been progressive and regulative;' Mr. Bryan's destructive. Mr. -Roosevelt has favored regulation of the busi ness in which evils have grown up so as to stamp out the evils and permit tho business to continue. The tendency of Mr. Bryan's proposals has generally been destructive of the business with re spect to which ho Is demanding reform. ' Mr. Roosevelt would compel the trusts to couduct their busluess In a lawful manner and secure the benefits of their operation nnd the maintenance of ths prosperity of the country of which-they are an Important part; while. Mr. Bryan would uxtlrpate und dqstroyitha, entire business In older to stamp out the rllH which they huve practiced. !i
