attributes that make a nation a great

but give promise of that grander
future which awitits u.-e when in the
development of mauirer years we
reach the stature of manhood that is

that wherever it Ihuts there justh-e

amid all this beating of drums and
selMaudatkns as we sound the sym
phony of national greatness conies a
minor strain of warning. The proud
est of the world's nations have fallen
through careless disregard of their
welfare. The height of grandeur to
vhl.-h reached these old empires, but
served mor? strongly to mark the con
trast, wh?n, plunging headlong', they
fell In all the degradation of social
eJiipwreck. So It Is well amid the
toasting to remember that possession
does not imply perpetuity, and as the
trite maxim has it, which continues to
be quoted because It cannot be im
proved: " Eternal vigilance is the
price of liberty."

Philippine question failed the moment
It resolved itself into an attack upon
the American army. The invect'.ves
lavished upon General Wheaton by

not have committed th!s blunder.
From the foundaton of the lepublic

measures of 1S12, President M.tdlsin
would not have succeeded h.myeif and
the Democrats would not have re-
j taiued power In :!ie state and nation
; up to lS.'i. Indeed, we might include
;the administration of John Qutncy
j Adams, for he was. like Fulfils King,
j& "war' Fc'derallst and was rwog
jnized as such when President Monroe
I made him secretary if state. As a
matter of fact the Democracy owed
las unbroken rule of the country up to
IS l1.1 to the unpatriotic attitude of the
Federalist party in 1S12-14.
There is good reason for believing
that If the Democratic party of the
North had given a hearty support to
the war for the union. Mr. Lincoln
might not have been his own success
or, not because of any fault on the
tart of Mr. Lincoln, but because of
the many severe disasters to our arms
almost up to the "eve of the presiden
tial election of 1S64. The Democratic
party threw away its chances for suc
cess by its senseless desertion to the
slave power and the "solid South."
Just as the Federal party was dragged
into bankruptcy and ruined by Its
frantic dislike of Jefferson end Madi
son. The Federal party of 1S12-H
staked its fortunes on opposition to the
war. and was ruined. The Democratic
party of 1SS1-64 staked its fortunes
on opposition to the war and was
ruined; was out of power for 23 years.
Its ablest men, line Tilden. Thurmnn,
Seymour, Pendleton, HendrleKs, were
discredited In any large popular In
fluence for years, beeiuse they had
been branded as " copperheads " by
eheir conduct during the nation's strug
gle for life. Lesser men, like Voor
hees, who had stooped to vulgar per
sonal abuse of the Union soldier, were
victims of public contempt outside
their own narrow provincial field. As
late as the presidential campaign of
I1S76, more than 10 years affr the
,war, Robert G. Ingersoll's most pow
jerful campaign speech was bas-d upon
j Tillman's unpatriotic attitude daring
j the Civil war. The same feWing of
; devotion to the flag was evident in
1 England during the Boer war, wh-n
J the Liberals, who had n t fomented
(its outbreak, nevertheless stood firm
jly by the British flag. It is a case
(where bbjod is thicker than watr.
There were thousands of Southern Un
ionists, like Early and Wb-kham. who
became bitter fighters on the 'VnfJ

of a calm world and a long- peace.
So long as our armies are chiefly com

to fight and, if need be, to tie, we
can afford to feel proud that the

The difference between these youn-old people
pic is a tlttlcrcnco
from? How is
answer is that all
and assimilated,
of digestion and assimilation are tlioroughly perfotmed. It is from
the nutrition extracted from food that physical vitality is produced.
It is quite possible to eat heartily and yet lack vitality because the
nutrition in the food is not extracted. This happens when there is
disease of the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition.
Then the food is imperfectly digested and the nutritive values are
largely lost. The consequence of this loss of nutrition in general is
physical weakness and in old age it is the forerunner of senile decay.
Strength then in youth or old age is only a question of sutTicient
food which is properly digested and assimilated. If vital strength is
produced from food under these conditions, it is evident that this
vital strength may be preserved while the stomach and its associated
organs are kept in a healthy condition.
It is imperfect digestion and loss of nutrition caused by disease of
the stomach and the other organs of digestion and nutrition, to
which in general loss of vitality may be attributed.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery cures diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion and nutrition in young or
old. It enables the perfect digestion and assimilation of food, from
which alone the body receives its strength and by which it preserves
its vitality.
"When I wrote you for advice, I was feeling very miserable with not simply oue ailment
but a general debility," writes Mrs. Martha Jones, of Clarrnuuit, Surry Co.,' Va. "I pur
chased a bottle of ' Favorite Prescription and also one of ' Golden Medical Discovery ' nml
a bottle of ' 1'ellcts.' 1 soon began to improve and continued taking them nutil 1 was feel
ing so well I discontinued. That was last spring, and 1 continued feeling as well as could
lie expected of an old taJy st itnty-thrte )iw$ tJ age. t have so much faith in your medi
cine; 1 feel that the number of my days has been prolonged by taking it. 1 recommend
Dr. Pierce's medicines every chance I get. I think there is no medicine enual to our
for old people. It makes their declining days easy and cheerful. I would say to the aged
especially, take Dr. Pierce's medicines, they will help and cure also."
"I was a sufferer from chronic diarrhea for five years," writes Mrs. Mary M. Aaron, of
Rolla, Phelps Co., Mo. "I tried different remedies which would give me relief for a short
time only. My trouble would return as bad as ever. I consulted you in July, I9, and by
your advice commenced using Dr. Pierce's remedies. I took two bottles of the M'.olden
Medical Discovery,' three vials of the ' Pellets,' and some of the ' Fxtract of Smart-Weed,'
as you advised. I have not had any return of my trouble since using your medicines. Am
now stienty-one years old, and I never had anything to relieve me so quick. I think Dr.
Pierce's medicines the greatest on earth. Ms thanks to you for your advice and thanks to
Almighty God for restoring me to health through your hands."
One of the consequences of partly digested food is the clogging
of the system and corruption of the blood by the accumulation of
waste material. In such a condition some outbreak of impure blood
is quite liable to take place, and the lack of vital force resulting
from loss of nutrition makes disease a hard thing to fight under such
conditions. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery not only cures
diseases of the stomach, but it purifies and enriches the blood, elimi
nating from it the poisons which produce disease.
"Three years ago my husband was taken sick," writes Mrs. C. S. Towle, of San Ardo,
Monterey Co., California. "He had three carbuncles. Two on back of the neck and one was
in region of kidneys. It was six inches in diameter and he had the best doctor we could
get. He attended him two months end then said he could do no more for him; that he hud
so little vitality there was nothing to build on; that a change might do him good. The
children insisted on his going away, but I said no, if he must die, he should die here in our
own home, hut if he could lie raised from that lied of sickness I could do it with Dr.
Pierce's medicines. We bought one bottle of 'Golden Medical Discovery' and a vial of
Dr. Pierce's Pellets. My husband had not been able to sit tip, even to have his bed made.
When he had taken one ljottle of the medicine he could sit. up and go out of doors, and
when seven had been taken he was in lietter health than for five years previously, lie is
now seventy years old, and can do good day's work."
As a tonic for old people there is no medicine superior to ''Golden
Medical Discovery." It strengthens the stomach, purifies the blood,
and so gives new life and new strength.
