J lie truth is the country is in period of extreme political flux," lessly divided internally, with tin; are in and those who are out, and the only cohesive factor. ' . ' How long the situation will last, no one knows, but as long as it does last, there is little profit in wailing. Father Time is the best and probably the only physician. Kventimlly there will probably be a complete political transformation, with a Conservative party on one side, which Jlr. AVeeks can whole heartedly support, and a Liberal party on the other, which can be supported by men like AVilliam Jennings Bryan and Samuel (lompers. Political parties don't make issui; issues make political parties. When elements now in suspension settle, when issues crystallize, then the present high .political humidity will disappear, and the country will really return to Normalcy again. Outbursts such as the one in which the Secretary o.f AVar has in dulged, relieves the feelings, but that is the only relief discernible. The solution lies elsewhere., Ouill Kasy street is noted for its dearth The doctor has a cinch. If the patient well, he is a great doctor. If the patient dies, "God took him.

HOW rdt'ti t ii jx is I'mlilisli, iiml cheerily T toil, nml plant Ihe luscious radish in dark nml fertile soil; and any man is ciiihlish who would my ruptures spoil. Vet nhvnys nml forever there is tho pouchy sluite, who tries to sny things clever, who leans upon my pite. ami mocks my hrave emleavcr to keep my pea vines straight. "Oh, thererare many killers to knock your Harden cold," he says, "and Iiuhn and millers, the perils manifold, ' jind six-inch caterpillars, and cutworms fierce ,and bold. Too often I have seen them, where clinging herbage twines; and all these posts, between them, will' kill your cherished vines, and though you l'aris-jjreen them, they won't take in their sins. Your sweat runs in a river, your face is turning preen, your muscles throb nml quiver, you've worked so hard, I ween; far better take your flivver, and burn up gasoline. For all your peas will perish, your cabbages will die, the succotash you cher ish will burn up in July, and with a sorehead bearish, you'll wriiiji your hands and cry." And thus men cheer the fellow who strives to raise some peas; they stand around and 'bellow dire prophesies like these, until his streak of yellow gives him cold feet and knees.

It Is ridiculous, ab surd and preposterous, in fact, it is a pity and a shame to talk about Rheumatism. Trunk's Presclption for Rheuma tism and Gout sells for $1.75. This Prescription DOES NOT ruin the stomach. It DOES NOT depress the heart, at all the meat and good food you wish while taking Trunk's Pre scription. It DOES NOT contain any Mercury, Salicylate of Soda, Oil of Wintergreen or narcotics of any kind, 'but it absolutely and positively overcomes any kind of Rheumatism or CJout on earth.
