WHAT THE TELLER RESOLUTION
MEANS.
The Teller resolution, as adopted
by the senate Friday, had two im
portant ends to serve. First and
foremost, its adoption by so large
a majority serves notice on the
gold syndicates and their agents
that no matter how frequently
they have announced the death
and burial of the silver question,
the issue has even more vitality
now than it had in 1878, and ap
peals more strongly than ever to
the support of the representatives
of the people.
As an evidence of this, the Tel
ler resolution passed the senate by
a larger majority in 1898 than a
similiar resolution did twenty
years ago. Therefore the issue

“ Flirting,” says a Texas judge
in handing down an opinion in a
divorce suit, “is not a valid cause
for divorce, but it is a good excuse
for a funeral.”
If, as is claimed by many, the
cause of silver is dead, one can do
nothing less than compliment Sen
ator Teller for his ability to gather
so many mourners around the
corpse.

occasions call for elaborate dis

Mr. O. B. Stevens, of Dawson,
Ga., who is a candidate for the
Democratic nomination for Com
missioner of Agriculture makes a
very modest announcement of the
fact. He names his qualifications,
which appear to be excellent, and
expresses the opinion that as rota
tion in office is a time-honored cus
tom of the Democratic party, a
change in the office of Commis
sioner of Agriculture might be a
good thing for the people. The
Citizen takes pleasure in endors
ing the candidacy of Mr. Stevens,
who is a successful farmer of Ter

The Kentucky Legislature
passed a resolution last week by
a large majority asking United

The intrusion of silver into the
Senate last week by the introduc
tion of Teller’s resolution set the
Hawaiian scheme aside for the
time being, and even eclipsed the
importance of the Cuban question.
Silver is a subject that is supposed
to have had the life crushed out
of it by the result of the last pres
idential election, but for a corpse
it displays remarkable animatio 1.
it promises to be the liveliest thing
above ground for the next two
years.

Music of Childish Laughter.
A very beautiful sentiment on
the music of childish laughter was
spoken by Colonel Ingersoll as
follows:
“The laugh of a child will make
the holiest day more sacred still.
Strike with hand of fire, O weird
musician, thy harp strung with
Apollo’s golden hair; fill thy vast
cathedral aisles with symphonies
sweet and dim, deft toucher of the
organ keys; blow, bugler, until thy
silver notes do touch and kiss the
moonlight waves, and charm the
lovers wandering ’mid the vine-
clad hills. But know your sweet
est strains are discords all, com
pared with childhood’s happy
laugh—the laugh that fills the
eyes with light and every heart
with joy. O rippling river of
laughter, thou art the blessed
boundary line between the beasts
and men, and every wayward wave
of thine doth drown some fretful
fiend of care. O Laughter, rose
lipped daughter of joy, there are
dimples enough in thy cheeks to
catch and hold aud glorify all the
tears of grief.”
The Discoveiy of the Day.
Aug. J. Bogel, the leading
druggist of Shreveport, La., says:
“ Dr. King’s New Discovery is the
only thing that cures my cough,
and it is the best seller I have.”
J. F. Campbell, merchant of Staf
ford, Ariz., writes : “ Dr. King’s
New Discovery is all that is claimed
for it; it never fails, anu is a sure
cure for Consumption, Coughs and
Colds. I cannot say enough for
its merits.” Dr. King’s New Dis
covery for Consumption, Coughs
and Colds is not an experiment.
It has been tried for a quarter of
a century, and today stands at the
head. It never disappoints. Free

A Tribute to Mr. Plant.
Governor Bloxham, of Florida,
in his speech before the fishery
congress at Tampa a few days ago,
paid a glowing tribute to Mr. H.
B. Plant, the man who has done
more than all others to develop
the State of which he is governor.
“ I would write,” he said, “ in
words of gold the deeds of Henry
B. Plant, the m dern Christopher
Columbus, who discovered Florida,
and who built the palace that now
shelters us.”
This is a tribute richly deserved.
Mr. Plant may be called the dis
coverer of Florida, but unlike Co
lumbus wlio discovered America-
he has lived to play the chief part
in its development. His liberality
in business, his charity and his
patriotic desire to see Florida pros,
per, has made him a great favorite
among all classes of people of the
State—as the representative of
whom Governor Bloxham spoke.
The Rod Indispensable.
Bishop Keener is credited with
the saying that children are best
reared by the help of the father’s
switch and the mother’s kiss.
A great many people nowadays
have laid the switch aside as a
useless implement. Some even
call it barbarous. But very gen
tle men have insisted that it has a
useful and merciful function.
Even Mark Hopkins insisted that
it is a right thing to “ whip the
mule ” in growing children.
With this dictum we heartily
agree. Much of the corporal
punishment that parents inflict
does no good, but that is because
it is not inflicted in the proper
way. It takes wisdom and love
to handle the rod correctly. We
are personally thankful for hav
ing been reared in a generation
that had no mawkish sentiments
on this subject.—Nashville Chris
tian Advocate.

things they need. Here are a few
samples of them:

“ I have a cute pane in my

GETTING READY
Every expectant mother has

What use is there in eating when food
does you no good—in fact, when it does
you more harm than good, for such is
the case if it is not digested?
If you have a loathing for food there
is no use of forcing it down, for it will
not be digested. You must restore the
digestive organs to their natural strength
and cause the food to be digested, when
an appetite will come, and with it a rel
ish for food.
The tired, languid feeling will give
place to vigor and energy; then you will
put flesh on your bones and become
strong. The Shaker Digestive Cordial
as made by the Mount Lebanon Shakers
contains food already digested, and is a
digester of food as well. Its action is
prompt, and its effects permanent.
