Smith, must make settlement by November 15th, else they will find their notes and accounts in the hands of Col. G. A. Johns for collection. We must have the money. This is the last notice. G. W. SMITH, Administrator J. S. Smith, Deceased. Unity of Public Health. In old times the idea of freedom implied the duty of every man to mind his own business and to let other people’s business alone. Small communities resented the inter ference of larger communities. Each professional class scorned the at tempt of the layman to pry into its concern. Science has taught us that the world cannot be so divided into individual interests and corners of private knowlege. In a remarkable address before the last session of the American Medical Association, recently reprinted, the late Dr. Charlie Harrington shows, from a physician's point of • view, that in the fight against disease all mankind is one, and that medicine is not the exclusive specialty of phy sicians but is allied with economics, sciology and politics. Pleading for national assistance in matters of public health, if not for national authority such as other countries enjoy, he points out that yellow fever does not respect the Ladies Scarfs. We can sell you a Scarf or Shawl cheaper than you can buy one elsewhere; quality considered. state lines of the Gulf state,that bu bonic plague in California may be a menace to New York, that tuber culosis knows not state or national limits. The great river carries the sewage of one city down to the next with complete indefference to artifi cial boundries. In all things the world is grow ing to recognize itself as a unit, and a nation that does nut re cognize its unity, flies in the face of nature with no internal de fense. We can stop diseased aliens at our gates. We cau stop the American passes from Philadelphia to Chicago as freely as if there were no political division between Penn sylvania and Illinois The way to meet danger in the light of our broader knowledge is not to disregard old political rights and separations, but to secure the greater unity —unity of intelligence. Our salvation lies in the growing interest of all America in the problems of public hygiene. — Youth’s Companion. Dying in Harness. Only a fallen horse, stretched out there on the road, Stretched in the broken shafts, and (•rushed by the heavy load; Only a fallen horse, and a circle of wondering eyes Watching the ’frighted teamster goading the beast to rise. Hold! For his toil is over —no more labor for him; See the poor neck outstretched, and the patient eyes grow dun; See on the friendly stones how peace fully rests the head — Thinking, if dumb beasts think, how good it is to be dead; After the weary journey, how rest ful it is to lie With the broken shafts and the cruel load —waiting only to die. Watchers, he died in harness —died in the shafts and straps — Fell, ana the burden killed him: One of the day’s mishaps — One of the passing wonders mark ing the city road — A toiler dying in harness, heedless of call or goad. Passers, crowding the pathway, staying your steps awhile, What is the symbol? Only death — why should we cease to smile At death for a beast of burden? On, through the busy street That is ever jind ever echoing the tread of hurrying feet. What was the sign? A symbol to touch the tireless will? Does He who taught in parables speak in parables still? The seed on the rock is wasted —on heedless hearts of men, That gather and sow and grasp and lose —labor and sleep —then — Then the prize—a crowd in the street of ever-echoing tread — The toiler, crushed by his heavy load, is there in his harnesss — dead* , —Juo. B. O’Reilly. Millinery. If you have not secured your Hat yet, save money by coming here. We sell you better and cheaper than others. ABOUT PROPHETS. Mr. Bryan has lived in the elec tric light of publicity for the last twelve years. In the United States, in Japan, China, the Phillippines, India, Europe, every speech has beer, reported and every act de scribed by the reporters of the daily papers. No mere man has ever been so closely scrutinized and so sharply criticized; and none has ever stood the scrutiny better or better over come the criticism. But he will never be president. Another fact: His views are gen erally approved by the mass of the people. ‘ ‘ Free silver, ’ ’sneer some, but all rejoice in the prosperity winch the increase of production of the money metal has brought. He approved the initative, whisper oth ers, hut Republican states endorse the insuance of hank deposits. Trial by jury is a part of Magna Charta. The publicity of party receipts and expenses is an ac complished fact. Other policies of his will be laws in a few years, all of them in a genertion. But not withstading the general approval of his platform, Mr. Bryan is not * president. He is the most respected and best loved citizen of the United States. But he is not president. These three facts suggest analogies. Patrick Henry, the bugle call to the American Revolution, was | never president. Moody, the great evangelist, was not the pastor of a wealthy city congregation nor a professor in a theological seminary. Wesley did not have the honor which the least of his bishops pos sesses. *%n Knox never had a good salary. Luther was not an archbishop. Stones and not worldy honor come to the true prophet. Worldly honor fall to those who merely Prints. All the leading and best of Prints are selling here at 5c yd. A beautiful line of the best brand of Calico at - 6c yd. keep pace with their age or lag a little behind it. Mr. Taft is an illustration. The porphet must expect censure and criticism and contempt. These are indeed the seals of the prophetical office, the proofs that the prophet is in ad vance of his time. Woldly honors indeed would rather hinder than help them. The papal chair would have hurt Lu ther; a salary, John Knox, a bish opric, John Wesley. A seat in the senate would rather have detracted from Patrick Henry's eloquence than added to it. So it is with Bryan. The presi dency would not increase his in fluence, but rather detract from it. Even his candidacy has injured him, by forcing him to accept the support of unworthy men. Greater than presidential chairs, better than all worldly honors, is truth. Follow truth, though it should lead to a martyr’s stake; for The blood of the mar tyrs is the seed of the church.'’ “Blessed are ye when men shall re proach you.” “Woe unto you when all men shall speak well °f you. ’’ —Southern Presbyterian. Sunflower Philosophy. Atchison Globe. When a man talks about his principle he usually means his prejudice. Most men when they come to the end of their rope also come to their senses. Brides soon admit their husbands have faults. “We all have,” they explain; “none of us are perfect.” When anew woman moves to town the other women call on her to get acquainted, or to look at her house? There isn’t any one in the world so hard to discourage or dishearten as the mother who is making a fight for a child’s life.
