Failure to euro Indigestion Is largely due to tho did theory that vhen the stom ach becomes Inactive it needs some thing to , mechanically digest its con tents, and cathartics, purgatives etc., are used, which give only temporary relief, becauso they digest by Irritat ing tho lining of the stomach. Modern science recognises tho fact that It Is tho nerves that furnish mo- tive' power to digest tho contents of, the stomach. The nerves agitato and mix tho food, and stimulate tho secretions. When they become weakened they lack energy, and Indigestion, dyspepsia, sour stomach result. Dr. Miles Restorative Nervine will relievo obstinate cases of Indiges tion, dyspepsia and stomach trouble by strengthening these nerves. "I had severe stomach trouble. Dr. Miles' Nervine, and Nerve and Liver Pills cured me. I can now eat any thing without trouble." L. C. O'BRIEN, Winston-Salem, N. Y. .

"Wn.lt.ftr "Wftnfnn-n tftlln n fitnrv of the Roosevelt-Cortelyou differences m tnis way: Secretary Cortelyou's statement, given to the press last night, has set tho political pot seething again here at the national capital. It has brought to light the true story of the much-discussed southern delegate question and it has resulted, inci dentally, in putting Mr. Cortelyou in a most uncomfortable nositlnn. 1? this awkward predicament there are, apparently, but two avenues of es cape: 1. Mr. Cortelyou will have to give up his ambition to be the republican nominee for president rext year; or, 2. He will have to resign from the cabinet. It can not be learned that Mr. Cor telyou has made up his mind what to do. He is ill and receives no cal lers. His friends do not pretend to know what his plans are. The relations between President Roosevelt and Secretary Cortelyou are slightly strained. The friction, it should be- understood, is entirely political, not personal. This strain may be quickly eased and pass away, leaving no traces of bitterness, or it may end in Mr. Cortelyou's retire ment from public life at an early day. President Roosevelt and all of Mr. Cortelyou's friends hope it may be the former. It donendR vorv i,m, on Mr.. Cortelyou himself. Mr. Cortelyou's present delicate position in the administration has de Teloped through a long series of events. The crisis has been slowly gathering. It is now here. To be gin with, Mr. Cortelyou is not in full sympathy with what is generally known as the president's progressive policies. He favors a more moderate course. He is not a reactionary, but he is a conservative conservative by temperament and through his asso ciations in New York, which are .largely financial. The secretary of the treasury has never been enthusiastic over the plan of President Roosevelt to make Sec retary Taft the heir of the present administration and' next year's can didate. He is the only member of the president',8 cabinet who has not acquiesced in the program of the chief. Mr. Roosevelt, it is well known, is not much accustomed to brooking opposition from within his official family. But as long as Mr. Cortelyou remained inactive and simply expressed his disapproval of the Taft candidature there was little danger of friction, because for Mr. Cortelyou Mr. Roosevelt feels an af fection which prompted tolerance. Then the southern brother came along and made trouble. The south ern brother is always making trouble in the republican camp. The true story of the agitation over the dele gates from the south, which has cul minated in this Cortelyou contre temps, is now for the first time pub lished. It was long ago decided by Presi dent Roosevelt and three or four of his political advisers that the south ern brethren needed looking after. If scandal was to be averted, such as the purchase of delegates with cash, and if the administration were to be able to feel sure of controlling the votes from that section, some early work would have to be done. It was decided to forestall other can didates and their agents, and to line the southerners up for the adminis tration. Here is where Assistant Postmas tei General Hitchcock came in. He was called to the White House for a conference. The whole subject was discussed. This decision was reach ed: That Mr, Hitchcock should make a tour of the south and line up- the delegations for the president and his policies. The understanding was complete. It was not to com mit the delegates to a third term, but to support of the president's pol icies and to vote for the man tho Subscribers' Advertising Dept, This department is for tho exclusive Use' of Commoner subscribers, and special rate of six cents a word per in sertion the lowest rate has ' been made for them.
