'* From By Iran Valley News, Brevrad, N. C.: It may be a question whether the editor of a newspaper haa the right io publicly recommend aoy of the vari ous proprietary medicinea which flood the market, yet aa a preventive of Buffer ermg we feel It a duty to say a good word for Cbamberlaln’a Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea remedy. We have « known and uaed this medicine in our family for twenty yeara and have al ’waya found it reliable. In many cases a dose of thia remedy would save hours of Buffering while a physician is await ed. We do not believe in depending implicitly on any medicine for a cure, hut we do believe that if a bottle of Chamberlain’s Diarrhoea remedy were leapt on hand and administered at the incaption of an attack, much suffering ' might be avoided and in very many eas es the presence of a physician would not tie required. At least this has been our qgperience during the past twenty ^fears. For sale by Corrigan. i. Festivities In s Crematory.

There are few pictures which have no stirred the heart of humanity as p Millet’s "Angelus." The girl who bup gl plied the model for the woman’s figure | was Adele Marler, who constantly re £ appears in the famous French artist’s pictures.

He was a mere “waif and I stray," who probably little suspected that his assumed attitude of prayer was to be thus Immortalised. * . f. ; ' Tested bjr Trifles. Flies are great tests of character, son. A man may be cool as an iceberg under extraordinary circumstances of danger or times of intense excitement; he may be calm when, at another man’s order he is facing a six-gun bat tery and getting ready to try if he can push a bayonet through a cannoneer before the gunner shoves eight pounds of assorted ironmongery through him; he may assume command and act no bly and quietly when the ship is sink ing; he may preserve an even mind when the hotel is on Are; he may even speak grammatically when the ghost enters his room at midnight. But let that man upset a very small inkstand, with only very little ink in it, on his desk. He upsets his chair on the of fice cat as he leaps to his feet with a howl like a wild Indian or a baseball coach; he makes a desperate grab at the Inkstand and swoops it half way across the desk before he sweeps it off into an open drawer full of unan swered letters, then he claws after his papers, and drags them through a lit tle puddle of ink that wasn’t doing a bit of harm before he mopped it zigzag and crooked all over everything with his white handker*-:ief; and, finally, after he has smeared the top of the desk, his hands and his gray panta loons with ink, he discovers that at the first dash he had knocked a much larger bottle of red ink clear off the desk on to the floor, where it has lain, draining its crimson life away in the very heart of the lightest figure on a blue and white carpet. Then he Bays things at the files of life, and won ders why a man always makes an idiot of himself when he upsets a lit tle bottle of ink. And he may keep on wondering. Because he will never know why. Nobody knows. He Just does It; that is all.—Robert J. Bur dette in Los Angeles Times. , Declaration of Independence. The Washington correspondent of the New York Independent writes: I thought there was one thing in Washington that an Englishman ought to see—namely, the declaration of in dependence. So I took my friend to the state department and showed him that instrument, which, for Its better preservation, Is now kept in a safe away from the light So far as its matter and substance are concerned, the instrument will much better bear the light of day than some passed since, but while the body of the text is fairly legible, the names of a large part of them have faded away. Hancock used a great deal of ink to write his name, and must have wielded his quill like a brush, but there is not a traoe of his signature now on the paper, and one must go to the facsimile to tell who the signers were. The original draft of the declaration in the handwriting of Jefferson and Franklin is much better preserved than the declaration Itself. Where did Jefferson buy his ink? This fading of public documents on account of bad ink has led to the passage by the state of Massachusetts of a law prescribing the use of standard ink for public records', and imposing a line of ISO in case any other ink is used for such purpose than that prescribed by the secretary of the commonwealth. - They who cheer have a share In the victory of those who fight.

Doolittle, fell from near the roof and broke his right arm near the elbow. At last reports the little fellow was getting along nicely. .... At a meeting held Friday even ing for the purpose of reorganizing the Atkinson gun club the following business was transacted: John Brady was made temporary chair man. Lee Henry was made per manent secretary and John Brady permanent treasurer. On motion it was decided to have a shooting turnament here this fall, and the date was set for Wednesday and Thursday, August 8 and 9. Mem bership fee was set at $2, and mem bers solicited. On motion committee of three was selected to locate new grounds. A committee of three was also appointed to arrange program for the shoot. Talked of Lynching. Butte Gazette: What came near proving a neck-tie festival happened at Lynch last Wednesday night, and only the lack of a leader is all that savec^, Fred Brailey from dangling from the end of a rope. Late that night he tore the wire netting from the bedroom window of the room occupied by May Allgor, at the Walters hotel, and with a knife in his hand entered the room and got in bed with the sleeping girl. She awoke,and seeing the intruder, screamed at the top of her voice. He placed the knife against her breast and swore he would kill her unless he kept still. Instead, she continued to scream, and he skipped out the way he got in. The racket awoke the hotel people and Landlord Walters and the marshal soon had the culprit in custody, finding him in bed at the Central hotel with clothes and shoes on. ,We understand that when the citizens gathered and found out what he had attempted to do they were inclined .to take summary veng eance, but wiser counsel prevailed and it was decided to let the law take it> course. His preliminary trial was held in Lynch yesterday, Coudty Attorney Tingle going down to prosecute, and resulted in his being bound over to the distriot court. His bond was placed at $1,000, which he has so far failed to get and is now in charge of officers here. Brailey lives near Alford. His chanoe for a term in the peniten tiary is good.
