E. Chamberlain, conceded to be the speediest war-horse in the democratic corral, is being groomed for governor nextyear. But a nom ination ten months hence might mean two different results. If the democrats are really in earnest in seeking Mr. Chamberlain’s nomina tion for the campaign they will choose the path of wisdom and not push his candidacy too soon. Inman “has slain his thousands" of republi cans, “and Chamberlain his tens of thousands.” The question of ensilage follows in the train of the newly awakened in terest in dairying in this county, and the rains falling at the time of clover harvest have acted with emphasis upon the admonition to the farmers to build silos so that their crops could be taken care of without danger of loss by reason of unseasonable rains. With silos, the hay can be stored di rect from the mower, and while the clouds are weeping the modern clover grower need not be longing lor sun shine. Chicago lias now produced the nickle in-the-siot photo. You walk up to a little machine about six feet high and four feet wide and drop a nickle into a slot. A shutter opens and your picture is taken on a small sheet of tin which falls into a chem ical solution, causing the picture to be developed, then it drops into a pan of clear water which washes the plate, and it falls on an apparat us which forces it into a little brass frame. A bell rings and you pull out your picture all complete, the whole operation having taken not more than twenty seconds. This is said to be the only automatic photo graphing machine in the world, mid Chicago is the city of its production. Harry Gilmore, son of a colonel in the regular army, and a candidate for admission to the United States military academy at West Point, has challenged his tutor, the Rev. Will iam Tatlock of the Presbyterian church at Saranac Lake, N. Y., to tight a duel, because of differences leading out «if .111 argument upon a question in mathematics. The prob lem presented was “How much greater than three-fourths is four- fourths?" Young Gilmore, after de liberating over the problem for some time, gave the answer as one third Ili« tutor disaureed with him. hold Ing that four fourths must naturally be one-fourth greater than three- fourths, whereupon an exciting dis cussion ensued, and the challenge to deadly combat resulted All Sara nac I-ake is so much interested in the affair that the problem in mathe matics has been completely lost to wiew. Yet they may entertain a human longing after all to see a question of fractions definitely set tled. and to see it settled with pis tols, swords, or axes.

Wom en, weak, nervous, "just able to drag around,” find themselves confronted with coming maternity. They have not strength enough for themselves, how ran they have streugth to give a child? We don't look for the birth of strong ideas from a weak mind. Why. should we expect the birth of strong children from weak mothers ? The way to ensure health and strength to mother and child is to use Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription as a preparative for motherhood. It brings the mother’s strength up to the requirements of nat ure, so that she has strength to give her child. It nourishes the nerves and so quiets them, It en- courages a natural appetite and induces refreshing sleep. " Favorite Prescrip tion ” makes weak women strong and sick women well. There is no alcohol in "Favorite Pre scription ” and it is free from opium, co caine and all other narcotic*. 1 from Salem.
