ALL IN PRINTING TRADE COUNCIL CLEVELAND THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. The well-known newspaper correspondent, "Bruce-Grit" (J. E. Bruce,) has not produced anything in recent months the equal of his communication on "My Country, 'Tis of Thee," published on the first page of this paper. Read it carefully and thoughtfully. ATTEMPTED SUNDAY SCHOOL "COLOR LINE." The fight over the action of the sub-committee of the executive committee of the Cuyahoga County Sunday School association, barring its Afro-American members from participation in the May festival held Thursday evening, was terminated on Monday evening at a mass meeting of our people held in St. John's church, by an apology from the executive committee, which was delivered by Rev. E. A. Fitch, (white) a member of the sub-committee. The essence of this apology will be found elsewhere in this paper. From what we learn in connection with this Sunday School "color line" effort, it seems that the secretary of the association, one A. H. Cross, who was a leading member of the sub-committee in direct control of the May festival, was responsible for the miserable and unchristian-like "color line" attempt referred to above—a new experience for all classes of church people in this city. The fellow (Cross) is very evidently a southerner or a northerner with very pronounced southern racial prejudice. One thing sure and that is, he has certainly injured our people in this community and placed the Cuyahoga County Sunday School association in a very embarrassing and distressing position from which it is hardly extricated by the apology. That some of our Sunday school children participated in the May festival, and all of our members of the association were at the last moment made welcome to do so as far as possible by the executive committee of the organization. does not help much, even though it does pull down the incipient "color line" barrier Cross and a few satellite members of the sub-committee were attempting to erect. Much damage has been done, which cannot be undone by apologies or anything else, except a long future course upon the part of the association, which will entirely wipe from the minds of thousands of residents of this community, baneful thoughts and feelings, which the "color line" attempt has begotten. The credit such as it is, for the favorable outcome of the contention, is due entirely to the vigorous, though somewhat delayed effort of most of the members of our local Ministers' union and a number of friendly white clergymen, led by Rev. Gabriel McGuire and Dr. Morgan Wood. THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT. The constitution of the United States creates and names the supreme court of this nation and provides that the judicial power shall be vested in it and in such inferior courts as the congress may from time to time ordain and establish. It cannot go beyond the constitution but it has jurisdiction within the limits of the constitution. Most cases tried by the supreme court are such as are brought before it upon appeals from the inferior courts of the United States. They involve chiefly questions of jurisdiction of the inferior courts, the constitutionality of laws, the validity of treaties and the sentences in criminal and prize cases. An appeal from a state court is carried to the supreme court of the United States, only on the ground that the decision of the state court is in conflict with the constitution of the United States. The peculiar province of the supreme court of the United States is to interpret the constitution, and in all conflicts between a state and the nation, the final decision rests with the supreme court. It may and does modify its own judgments or reverse its own decision, whether its decree relates to a private citizen, a state, the congress or the president, that degree remains final and from it there is no appeal. The chief justice is paid thirteen thousand dollars out of the peoples' money and is sworn to do his duty. His eight associate justices are paid twelve thousand five hundred dollars each and are alike sworn to dispense justice in righteousness. In the light of these facts what is the attitude of the supreme court of the nation before the world to-day? Its duty is clear, yet it cowardly avoids jurisdiction in subservience to a base and unrighteous policy. Again and again it has set aside cases upon the spurious plea "for the want of jurisdiction." These justices dare not declare whether the constitution of the United States is violated by the constitution of several southern states. Paid and sworn to do their righteous duty they quail in the presence of a dreaded public sentiment. How can the supreme court refuse its decision, when from it there can be no appeal? Its decree is final and the government of the people has a right to know the validity and claims of our national constitution and its laws. If the supreme court cannot interpret and give a decision then it does seem that there should be appeal allowed from some higher source, and if the supreme court has no jurisdiction, then it logically follows that the law-making powers should assert the right of jurisdiction. If the supreme court of the nation means to shirk an obligation, so sacred to the country and free government, then it becomes the people, through their representatives to demand the abolition of that court, and to find a substitute that shall be required at all times to pass upon all cases which admit of a decision. The conduct of the justices of the supreme court in thus tampering with the rights of the national government and the liberties of the people, is a glaring outrage upon the slightest pretentions to justice. Public sentiment may vacillate, and politicians may practice their intrigues, but the supreme court of the United States should stand as the uncompromising interpreter of the law and the dispenser of justice. Today the federal supreme court rules the republic and it is to be deplored that it debases its high calling and abuses its prerogatives, only to shape its opinion in keeping with a theory directly opposed to the fundamental idea of our true democratic system. Abuse of power has been long tolerated by the American people and now the new deal has been applied in vindication of its unpardonable attitude, that the court has no jurisdiction to determine vital measures, measures upon which the life of the nation depends. Something should be done to rescue this nation from its pitiable and deplorable plight. It should be done speedily. TYLER AND MYERS' "TURN DOWN." One of the Very Best Things That Has Happened for Years in Ohio Politics—Myers and His Razors to be Succeeded. Columbus, O.—One night last week before the state republican convention convened, Geo. Myers, of Cleveland, and Ralph Tyler, of this city, got fourteen of the latter's local friends and two or three delegates into a room and proceeded to organize what they term the "Afro-American Republican Council of Ohio," electing Myers president, endorsing Tyler for alternate-delegate-at-large to the national republican convention to meet in Chicago, in June, and gave to the local daily press a statement that this endorsement was made by the Afro-American delegates to the state convention. They also sent this word to Senator Dick and those in control of the convention. The result was, next day in the convention our delegates refused to accept the Myers-Tyler bunco political game endorsement and revolted. When it came to the election of alternates-at-large, they surrounded Senator Dick and made it clear to him that Myers and Tyler were trying to steal the empty political honor of alternate-at-large. This was not accomplished, however, until after Senator Dick had placed Tyler's name on the slate. He took up the matter promptly in the convention and sent Gov. Herrick, who was the chairman, the necessary word, which resulted in dividing the motion to elect four alternates-at-large, leaving off the last one (Tyler.) Henry Eubanks, of Cleveland, erstwhile friend of Myers and Tyler, was hungering and thirsting for that alternateship. Indeed, he was the only Afro-American, besides Tyler, who wanted the empty honor. The Afro-American delegates, therefore rallied about him with the result now well-known throughout the state. Then, in compliance with Senator Dick's orders and at our delegates' earnest solicitation, Tyler was turned down flat not receiving a single vote, and Eubanks was elected. The fellow, Tyler, with the possible exception of Myers, the most generally disliked Negro in the state of Ohio (and their are many good reasons for this), did not even get a vote from the delegates of his own (Franklin) county; nor a single vote from all the delegates in the convention—the most crushing blow ever administered to a candidate for a place in an Ohio state convention. It is said that as Senator Hanna was "accompanied to all" (?) state and national conventions by Myers and his razors", that Senator Dick was desirous of emulating the deceased Senator's example in this respect, by securing the election of Eubanks, the proprietor of the Kennard House barber shop, of Cleveland. Whether this be true or not, and as poor a selection as was that of Henry, he is infinitely preferable to Tyler, and Senator Dick is to be thanked for giving the fellow Tyler and his colleagues the double political cross and quietus. The decent, self-respecting Afro-American republicans of Ohio have rejoiced over Myers' and Tyler's "turn down" ever since the convention, and it will do more to promote harmony among them throughout the state in this fall's campaign than almost any other action Senator Dick and the convention would have taken.

A Resolution to that Effect and One Denouncing Tillman and Vardaman Temporarily Shelved by A. M. E. General Conference. Chicago, Ill.—Discussion of a resolution indorsing President Roosevelt for a second term resulted in heated arguments among the members of the general conference of the A. M. E. church on the 19th. The resolution was temporarily taken from the conference and put in the hands of a committee. "I am sure that we can afford to endorse President Roosevelt," said Bishop Derrick. "He never flies the white flag and has passed what time he has been in office correcting the mistakes of his country and upholding the principles of his party. He has held in his hand the key to justice with which he has unlocked the door of hope for every American citizen regardless of race or color." The Rev. W. D. Cook, of Atlantic City, N. J., offered a resolution attacking Senator Benjamin Tillman, which was disposed of in the same manner as the first. "A man who is a member of the highest law-making body in the world," said Rev. Cook, "and will go around over the country and boast of killing colored persons like rabbits is unfit for the position and is a disgrace to the country which he represents. Does such a man represent the dignity of this country?" Gov. Vardaman's attitude towards the education of our people was also censured. Olean, N. Y., News.

W. L. Taylor, of Richmond, president of the True Reformers and their bank, of that city, arrived recently and was going to preach at the High Street Baptist church in the evening, but was prevented by a committee of representative men. They called a meeting of the board of deacons. It was decided that Mr. Taylor could not preach in Roanoke and he was met at the church door and so informed. He then asked permission to go in and listen to the pastor, and even this request was refused on the ground, it is alleged, that Mr. Taylor is the owner of a large tenement house on High street, which he rented for improper purposes. Taylor was astounded at the reception tendered him and took the first train for Richmond. Attorney A. J. Oliver and several other leading local Afro-Americans will make a strenuous effort at the June term of the corporation court to have Rev. Taylor indicted on the charge of owning and renting a house in this city for immoral purposes. Rev. Pannell's Bride. Massillon, O.-Born to Mr. and Mrs. Moses Lowrey, a daughter. Rev.

The editor of The Gazette acknowledges the receipt of an invitation from Mrs. Mamie Fox Riddick to attend the closing exercises of the Edenton, N. C., industrial high school, May 20 to June 3.

About 25 were present. Light refreshments were served. One cake was lettered "Welcome." It was currently whispered last week that there was quite a "jar" in our local Ministers' union meeting last week over the St. John's church mass meeting last Monday evening and the union's resolutions denouce- ing the attempted county Sunday School association executive committee sub-committee's attempted drawing of a "color line" in the Thursday evening May festival chorus. William Nelson, No. 342 Turney avenue, will speak at G. A. R. hall, corner of Euclid avenue and Doan street, Monday evening under the auspices of the East End church, Rev. W. J. Johnson, pastor. Mr. Nelson will speak on the so-called "race problem." He has given the subject much thought, and investigation, and has letters from some of our representative people of southern states, which are interesting. The more one thinks of that payment of $650 and the operation expenses to the mother of the little lad, Geo. Gross, who had two legs and an arm cut off recently by a Central avenue car and was otherwise injured, the worse it seems. She should have gotten at least $6,500 from the street car company. The question everybody is asking now is, "who led her into the deal, and why?" It certainly does not "look" right, to say the least. Here is a thing that will bear a little investigation—or a good deal. Look into it. We shall. Rev. E. D. Dandridge, president of the Colored Ministers' union, and pastor of Shiloh Baptist church, said last week: "My church received an invitation to take part in the chorus choir. Our young folks went to the practice, and were deliberately snubbed. When they attempted to take their places they were told to go into another room. The girls went in there and waited, but received no explanation. They did not know what to do, and when told they could not sing were almost heartbroken. We sent a man to Mr. A. H. Cross, to know why we had been treated so, and were told the invitation had been sent us by mistake." The mass meeting, Monday evening, at St. John's church to take action regarding the barring of our Sunday schools from the May festival held Thursday evening, by the arrangements of the Cuyahoga County Sunday School association, was largely attended. Rev E. A. Fitch, (white), a member of the arrangements committee, was present, bearing an apology from the executive committee of the organization. The document, which was adopted last Saturday, closed with the words: "We hereby publicly deplore the action of the original committee as being contrary to our principles and spirit, and we express our sincere regret that we should have been committed to a policy that is directly opposed to our sentiments." The paper was signed by all the members of the executive committee including G. C. Hansen, the president, and A. H. Cross, the secretary of the association, who it seems was at the "bottom" of the discrimination, just as we suggested two weeks ago. After some debate the apology was accepted by the meeting. Among other speakers were Rev. Morgan Wood, Rev. Gabriel McGuire, Rev. H. C. Bailey, Rev. J. S. Jackson and Rev. E. D. Dandridge. The resolution introduced at the meeting calling on the executive committee to oust Cross from the office of secretary, was allowed "to die aborning." Strange to say the least. He ought to be thus encouraged to return south. There were one or two other somewhat similar incidents in the meeting. We hope to be able to announce in our next issue that some of our children participated in the festival chorus on Thursday evening as President Hansen announced on Saturday week, if not a greater number. The action of a sub-committee of the County Sunday School association's executive committee, in excluding our Sunday school pupils from taking part in the school festival on May 20, led to considerable bitter talk among Cleveland ministers. Dr. Morgan Wood was indignant over the action of the association and said on last week Thursday: "It seems there are some people who say that little black boys and girls can't sing the songs of their God and their country, while little white boys and girls are in the neighborhood. They can, if they wish, have a festival of their own, after the white children have had theirs, but the white children will not go to it. Think of it! The public school, an educational institution which does not claim to be religious, does not dare to do what the Sunday School association has done. If my boy is assigned to a seat in school with a black boy he must take it. If he does not want to sit beside the black boy, then he can leave the school. But the Sunday school, the one institution of all institutions which should teach love and tolerance and the equality of souls in the sight of God—that it should bar the black child from taking part in a public and patriotic rally of children—Oh! it makes my blood boil. We cannot throw stones at the south. The south is at least consistent. But we, who indulge in maudlin, sentimental 'tommyrot' about the equality of all men, on the slightest provocation, bar children, whose skins happen to be black, from singing God's songs. It is not a question of what you or I personally think or feel about the Negro. It is the principle. Those white children have had their first lessons in race prejudice. They are telling each other right now that black children are not as good as white. Every pastor and church in the county ought to refuse to attend this festival, much less participate in it, if the color line is to be drawn. For my part I shall ask my Sunday school to have nothing to do with it." Picked Up $88,000. Washington, D. C.—M. P. Jones, received $500 for picking up a bundle last week Thursday. The bundle had dropped from under the arm of E. P. Prescott, of Reading, Pa., who had not felt it slipping from him. It contained $88,000 in negotiable securities. Jones picked it up, ran after Prescott, restored it to its over-joyed owner and received the big reward on the spot. Suburban Service Daily Cleveland to Vermillion.

"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:—During the early part of my married life I was very delicate in health. I had two miscarriages, and both my husband and I felt very badly as we were anxious to have children. A neighbor who had been using Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound advised me to try it, and I decided to do so. I soon felt that my appetite was increasing, the headaches gradually decreased and finally disappeared, and my general health improved. I felt as if new blood coursed through my veins, the sluggish tired feeling disappeared, and I became strong and well. "Within a year after I became the mother of a strong healthy child, the joy of our home. You certainly have a splendid remedy, and I wish every mother knew of it.—Sincerely yours, MRS. ANNA PORTS, 510 Park Ave., Hot Springs, Ark." If you feel that there is anything at all unusual or puzzling about your case, or if you wish confidential advice of the most experienced, write to Mrs. Pink- ary Meets Success in Test on Dogs. The recent discovery by Mr. Allen a Dublin veterinary surgeon, that ordinary turpentine is an antidote to carbolic acid has aroused great interest. Recently a well known chemical expert in Dublin tested the efficacy of the antidote on a dog. A dose of carbolic acid was first administered and when all the ordinary symptoms of carbolic poisoning had been developed, oil of turpentine was applied and the dog recovered within a short time. It is a curious thing about the discovery that is was due more or less to an accident. Mr. Allen had some horses in his establishment, which were suffering from carbolic poisoning, and he asked for oil to be applied as an antidote. It was only when the effects were found to be so unexpectedly successful that it was discovered that it was turpentine that had been administered. A few days after a blacksmith who was unconscious from the effects of carbolic poisoning was treated similarly, with satisfactory results. Just the Thing. There is said to be a flood of counterfeit money in New Jersey. Something of that kind, says the Chicago Tribune, might be made useful in watering trust stocks. As to the appropriations made by the session of congress just closed it is to be observed that this is at least a $781,574,629 country. TIRED. SUFFERING WOMEN. A Women run down and endure daily tortures through neglecting the kidneys. Kidney backache makes housework a burden; rest is impossible; sleep fitful; appetite gives out and you are tired all the time. Can't be well until the kidneys are well. Use Doan's Kidney Pills, which have restored thousands of suffering women to health and vigor. Mrs. William Wallace, of 18 Capitol St., Concord, N. H., says: "I was in the early stages of Bright's Disease, and were it not for Doan's Kidney Pills, I would not be living to-day. Pain in the back was so intense that at night I had to get out of bed until the paroxysm of pain passed away. I was langulg and tired and hadn't the strength to lift a kettle of water. I could not work, but a few doses of Doan's Kidney Pills relieved me, and two boxes absolutely cured me." A FREE TRIAL of this great kidney medicine which cured Mrs. Wallace will be mailed to any part of the United States. Address Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, N. Y. Sold by all dealers.

History Repeated in Fashions MILLINERY MODES of PARIS Paladin N TAKING a general survey of fashion, we see how history repeats itself, and what famous historical epochs are represented in the fashions of 1904. We N TAKING a general survey of fashion, we see how history repeats itself, and what famous historical epochs are represented in the fashions of 1904! We are wearing Medicis collars and Elizabeth sleeves and embroideries, and Marie Stuart coifs, and we are adopting every style peculiar to the days of the Louis, in coloring, texture, and design. Pompadour muslins are the rage of the hour. Chine, brocades, beautifully colored heavy satins, quaint old-world pastel embroideries, the Marquise hat in Leghorn, with its wreaths of Pompadour roses, the quaintly beautiful Directoire and Louis XV. coats, and brocaded waistcoats figure largely among the season's fashions. Then we have the seventeenth and eighteenth century brocades and taffetas, not to speak of the Marie Antoinette skirts and bads, the Josephine or Empire frock, with its bolero effects and gorgeous trimmings. Observe in the fashions of to-day the amount of gold galon and quaint old taffeta trimming used, and how faithfully the pelerine of the Josephine period has been produced in velvet and silk, though this is now giving place to the Early Victorian fichu effects. Charming is the revival of taffeta, plain, spotted, striped, check, and changeant in the old-fashioned browns and greys of that period which followed, in disapproving contrast, the brilliant rose du Barry and Louis XV. blue. To-day we are without prejudice where color is concerned. MILLINERY MO ARIS.—Dear to the heart of every woman of fashion is the variety in new hats and parasols, the majority of which are very becoming. There are PARIS.—Dear to the heart of every woman of fashion is the variety in new hats and parasols, the majority of which are very becoming. There are flat shapes and high ones, shapes worn over the face, others tilted back, the long, the narrow, the wide, the square, and the round, in fact, every possible shape, every known color, all periods of history, and fantastic modern ideas, are all represented on the head. Our elegantes can wear almost any shape and make it look as if it is peculiarly theirs by right. There was a fear in the early part of the season that the vell or lace drapery and the general effect of the echarpe would soon be demode on account of their overwhelming popularity. As a matter of fact this is not the case, for quite beautiful are the specimens of black and white Chantilly veils now worn, and if these give place to the lighter effects in tulle and lace we cannot say they have disappeared abruptly. The 1830 hat, with strings, is still worn, but not very many of these are to be seen, though there are some pretty specimens in simple Leghorn sun-bonnets, trimmed with wreaths of flowers and narrow black velvet strings. A great deal of fruit is being used on all kinds of hats, and especially on the Breton shapes. Some of the smartest show apples, cherries, currants, and grapes, placed without any meaning whatever, but with extremely stylish effect. On almost every light hat we notice a touch of black, and where it is possible the inner brim is of black. Many tan shapes are lined with black, and those for morning and country wear show high elongated crowns with bands f black moire ribbon, two or three black wings being the sole trimming. Some picturesque hats are in chip, the crowns covere. with currants or roses, embedded on puffed tulle, TOLD IN MEXICO. Japanese laborers to the number of 500 are to be imported to work in the Mexican copper mines in an attempt to solve the labor problem. The men are to be paid $1.50 a day and are under contract for three years. The gross receipts of the 14 bull fights given in the City of Mexico so far this season in which Spanish matadors participated, amounted to $223,000, or about $16,000 for each fight. The expenses did not amount to one-half the sum, leaving clear profit in the bull ring manage- --- Nothing is too gorgeous for us, nothing is too simple, and thus we see brilliant shades side by side with subdued Quaker tones. It is not surprising, that dress today is beautiful, for the wonderful colorings and lovely embroideries of the Far East are manipulated with the ingenuity and lightness of touch peculiar to the Western nations; chic and smartness we have at home, and superior intellects have culled wondrous designs from the old-world masters. The Italian school is also playing a part with its trimmings and enamels. You may wear gowns of silk or serge, linen or muslin, but the skirt of the evening frock and the toilette de reception must be long, full, and flowing. Walking skirts, on the other hand, are plain at the top, full at the feet, and clear the ground all round. Kid and suede belts are de rigueur with tailor-made gowns, while on smarter occasions we wear soft Oriental satin and taffeta pointed bands and sashes. Long stoles and nchus of marabout and ostrich feather are worn, some of the latter being shaggy-looking and uncurled. Then we also see fichus of lace point d'esprit adorned with curious taffeta trimmings, some of the best summer dresses will be made of taffeta. In this fabric particularly there is a decided fancy for pale,pink as well as for the stronger strawberry and raspberry shades. Brown will not go out of fahion, but will get paler and paler until it dissolves into yellow. Pale green, too, of a rather unbecoming olive shade, is popular. ODES of PARIS which fabric also forms thick ruches round many of the crowns of hats. Sometimes these fruit crowns are rather hard, and a little heavy. I must say I like the scarf-like drapery of lace to soften the brim. Fancy crinolines are used, trimmed with ruches of tiny pink roses and green leaves. The Breton sailor is revived in all possible shades, and there is a liking for the Toreador worn as a toque straight over the face instead of being clited up at the side. Blue in every shade is to be seen, from the palest ciel trimmed with long feathers and a vell of the same shade to the practical Breton sailor in navy with wreaths of cornflowers or bands of velvet ribbon and ornaments. The dark blue lace or net vell has became as much a feature as that in brown or black. Shaded gauze and chiffon veils are also worn; in fact, the changeant effect is everywhere noticeable, in the veil, in flowers, in feather boas, and last but not least in taffetas and chiffons. Paris fashions are truly delightful and nothing is a more striking example of the luxuriousness and gorgeousness of toilettes than the parasols that accompany them. The ordinary en-tout-cas is, in itself, despite its simplicity, extremely costly. The long Pompadour handle is generally surmounted by crystal, enamel, or jewels. The covers are mostly in one color with a deep border of contracting shade. Grass-lawn and muslin are often used as a border for the taffeta parasol. Then we have the most glorious examples of these composed of gauged chiffon trimmed with festoons of chenille, ruches and beautiful Chantilly lace. Some show a silk fringe, plaited heavily, while very delicate are those made of painted chiffon inserted with fine lace. Some of these parasols are of the most gorgeous colors; others are in plainest white and black; but all are indicative of costliness. ment of about $112,000: Editor Wells, of the Litchfield, N. D., Bulletin has been traveling in Mexico. He saw a bull fight in Juarez and was much disgusted with the show. "To sum up the whole affair," he says. "I can only say a bull fight seems mighty dangerous to a bull. I'd like to see some of these butchers run up against a little North Dakota cow with horns, that had lost its calf. I'll bet there would be more cow than female greaser left at the end of the first inning. The bull fight is only a slow, brutal and sickening slaughter of under-sized calves and it makes me tired." --- CASTORIA For Infants and Children Bears The Signature Of Char. H.

Minister's Wife Had a Flower Hat and Put It in the Wrong A story is told by the Chicago Inter Ocean of a woman in that town, the wife of a young minister, who has always had a liking for hats of the flower-bed variety, although she condemned others for wasting money that should go to the heathen. At present she owns a "dream" of a "sky piece," that is covered with violets. The young wife wore this hat to a funeral recently, at which her husband officiated. Going into the room which contained the coffin she removed the hat and placed it on a stand. The sad-faced, sleek-haired undertaker came in a few minutes later to arrange the "floral tokens" on the coffin. After putting the bouquets, wreaths, pillows, broken wheels, anchors and the usual run of flowers in place, he picked up the violet-covered hat and tenderly placed it on top of all the rest. Several of the "mourners" giggled, and the minister's wife wanted to grab her hat and run. She had to let it alone, however, until the close of the ceremony. When she marched past the bier she lunged for the hat and successfully made her escape. COULD HEAR IN GERMAN. A Horse That Was Not Used to Instructions in Any Other Language "I bought a horse at an auction not long ago, said an Eighth avenue butcher, according to the New York Press, "and I thought I had got a bargain until I tried him a few days; then I concluded that I had been stuck. The horse was sound, had good sight, but he would not obey commands. He would not stop when the driver said 'Whoa!' nor start when he said 'Git up!'. The animal seemed to be deaf, and the first chance I got I sold him to a German baker at a sacrifice. "Shortly after that I met the baker, and he shook my hand cordially and expressed himself as being very much pleased with the horse I had sold him. I wondered at this and asked if the horse seemed to have any difficulty in hearing. To my surprise, the baker said the norse could hear as well as any horse he ever had. "Does he stop when you say 'Whoa!' and start when you say 'Git up?'" I asked. "Oh, no!" exclaimed the baker, 'I don't say dot!' I talks to him in German! "That horse must have belonged to a German before he was put up at auction. That is the only way I can account for his actions." An Ohio Notary. Salineville, O., May 23.-Mr. John W. Manning, Notary Public for Columbia County and one of the most respected men of the state, has caused to be published the following letter: "About one year ago, I was suffering terribly from Kidney Trouble. I saw an advertisement of a medicine called Dodd's Kidney Pills and sent for two boxes. "In the meantime, I suffered awfully, and as soon as I got the Pills I began taking them according to directions and got almost immediate relief, and I have this further to say, that after using the two boxes, I have never been troubled with my Kidneys since. "I have recommended Dodd's Kidney Pills to others, who have tried them, and everyone who used them has been cured. I think they are a great remedy and all that is claimed for them." Mr. Manning's letter is a strong recommendation for Dodd's Kidney Pills and is worth the attention of all who suffer with Kidney troubles.

Catarrh of the Stomach is Generally Called Dyspepsia---Something to Produce Artificial Digestion is Generally Taken. Hence, Pepsin, Pancreatin and a Host of other Digestive Remedies Have Been Invented. These Remedies Do Not Reach the Seat of the Difficulty, Which is Really Catarrh. EX. U. S. Senator M. C. Butler from South Carolina, was Senator from that state for two terms. In a recent letter to The Peruna Medicine Co., from Washington, D. C., says: "I can recommend Peruna for dyspepsia and stomach trouble. I have been using your medicine for a short period and I feel very much relieved. It is indeed a wonderful medicine besides a good tonic."---M. C. Butler. The only rational way to cure dyspepsia is to remove the catarrh. Peruna cures catarrh. Peruna does not produce artificial digestion. It cures catarrh and leaves the stomach to perform digestion in a natural way. This is vastly better and safer than resorting to artificial methods or narcotics. Peruna has cured more cases of dyspepsia than all other remedies combined, simply because it cures catarrh wherever located. If catarrh is located in the head, Peruna cures it. If catarrh has fastened itself in the throat or bronchial tubes, Peruna cures it. When catarrh becomes settled in the stomach, Peruna cures it, as well in this location as in any other. Peruna is not simply a remedy for dyspepsia. Peruna is a catarrh remedy. Peruna cures dyspepsia because it is generally dependent upon catarrh.
