Bryan says silver is no deader now than it was in 1S96. Agreed. Weekly World. ESTABLISHED MARCH 1, 1892 removed to the Oiivet institution in Michigan, and engaged in teaching. He then became interested in the cause of peace and labored as an agent of the League of Brotherhood then carrying on extensive and vigor- ous operations, under the leadership, of Elihu Burritt.

While thus engaged he was called to endure the great af I tef -v; 7 I I Humors of the Blood Cause many troubles, pimples, boils ami. other eruptions, besides loss of appetite, that tired feeling, fits of biliousness, indigestion and headache.

Pinkkam During the early v. I and admiration of her husband should be a woman's constant study. Mrs. Brown and Mrs. Potts tell their stories for the benefit of all wives and mothers.

44 Dear Mrs. Pinkham Lydia E. Pinkliam's Vegetable Compound will make every mother well, strong1, healthy and happy. I dragged through nine years of miserable existence, worn out with pain and weariness. I then noticed a statement of a woman troubled as I was, and the wonderful results she had had from your Vegetable Compound, and decided to try what it would do for me, and used it for three months.

At the end of that time I was a different woman, the neighbors remarked it, and my husband fell in love with me all over again. It seemed like a new existence. I had been suffering with inflammation and falling of the womb, but 3'our medicine cured that and built up my entire system, till I was indeed like a new woman. Sincerely yours, Mrs. Chas.xF.

Brown, 21 Cedar Terrace, Hot Springs, Vice President Mothers' Club." Suffering women should not fail to profit by Mrs. Brown's experiences; just as surely as she was cured of the troubles enumerated in her letter, just so surely wijl Lydia E. Pink ham's Vegetable Compound cure other women who suffer from womb troubles, inflammation of the ovaries, kidrfey troubles, nervous excitability, and nervous prostration. Heui the story of Mrs. Potts to all motuers 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 neierhbor who had been using Lydia K. Pinkliam's. Vegetable Compound advised me to try it, and I decided to do so. I hoim felt that my appetite was increasing, th; headaches gradually decreased and finally disappeared, and my general health improved.

I felt as if new biood coursed through my veins, the sluggish tired feeling disappeared, and I became strong and well. "Within a year after I became the mother It is noticeable tbat the day wheat reached $1 per bushel in the Kansas City market there were only 60 cars there. Our idea of inappropriateness is for Honduras to get up a revolution when the world is busy watching the Japan-Rusian war. One woman in this town says she wants her husband to keep his distance from other women so they will not find out what a chump she married. Democracy has always looked more to its exits than to its entrances.

For this reason it has not attracted men of intelligence the way the Republican party has done. Mot only is Charlie I'rentice noted for having been marshal longer than any other man in the world, but he holds the record for smoking the most villanous brand of stogies on the market. The fight in Bourbon county today is a terrific one. Every man in the county has been lined up on one side or the other. It is a battle royal and the winner in those primaries today will win a great victory.

TheUnited States is not concerned with the war between Japan and Russia. Our trade interests are not so extensive as to demand much attention. America will just let them fight it out. It will not be perched on an outpost like a vulture loking for spoils, and it will not let China, commit governmental suicide. This paper can not be accused of supporting Henry Allen for Congress.

At the same time this paper will not stand for one phase of the campaign being made against him. Mr. Allen is accused of working a graft in the matter of taking girls from the industrial school to his home. He did the best possible thing for them. Instead of being wrong, he ought to be commended.

However, this is said in justice to a maligned man, not in support of his candidacy. The sympathy of the world will be with Japan, but that will not allow this government to take any sides. "We must be strictly neutral. While it is true that we are a world power, it is also true that our responsibility is increased. We are not a belligerent nation.

We preach and live the doctrine of peace on earth, good will to men. Besides this, Russia was true to us in the most trying times of our history. It has frequently been asked why poor shows are on the road and are given dates in respectable opera houses. There are a class of rotten shows that always get good houses in Lawrence. What is true here is true of other towns.

Lincoln J. Carter can send one of his thrilling, hair: raisins: aggregations to this town and get a crowd. Mansfield would not think of coming here. He would not get a crowd. The good shows have to stay in the large cities where the select class is larger.

Did you ever get fooled in anybody? Have you ever photographed anyone in your mind and then seen an entirely different person bearing the name? We have had just such an experience. We had imagined Anna Carlson, of the Lindsborg News, was a brawny, muscular woman, who could throw an offending and irate subscriber out on occasion. But she is nothing of the kind. She could hardly dislodge a mosquito from her brow, should one be so rash as to perch there on a summer's evening. Miss Carlson is tall, slender and of a most retiring disposition.

She is one of the most vigorous writers in the state, but she looks like a school teacher who has been dealing with other people's children so long that she has lost interest in the world. If you talk with her you soon get that out of your head. She is quiet but gives one the idea of strength. We imagine she is not much of a mixer, but she is possessed of an intellect many women would be myhty glad to have. J.

St Telephone Nov 136 Entered at the postoffice in Lawrence, as second class matter The effort to sidetrack Mr. Hock's prohibition views is not commendable Mr. Hoch ought to be proud of his record. He has always been right on that question, always strong. "If whiskey interferes with your business, stop business." That was a motto once made famous.

W. E. Blackburn of the Anthony Republican found he could not run his newspaper and a bank, so he sold the bank. A good deal of the prejudice against Russia is caused by the unpronounceable names. People have an idea that if the country were civilized the shortest name in it would not be six syllables.

J. H. Atwood showed a wonderful knowledge of his story in his lecture before the editors. It was not surprising that he should have made some slight mistakes, having said so much. He got mixed on Clive and Hastings.

Henry. Allen now understands how Bailey felt when his friends left him alone to go through his Gethsemane. Mr. Allen is having to fight his fight single handed. The machine outside of the district is giving him a wide berth.

Allen is a good man, but this( is not his year in Second district pol-j itics. Mr. Hoch is doing splendid work for Mr. Bowersock in the Second dis trict. The machine had a strong-j hold here, in that one of the most, popular young men in the state was asking for the congresional nomina- tion.

Mr. Hoch has won his fight. but he wants the state politics puri fied. In preventing the interference of the Chinese in the Japanese-Russian war, America is showing herself the greatest nation the world ever saw. In this country the public sympathy is unanimously with Japan and China wants to help on that side.

But the wrord of America has been passed and China must be protected. It is sometimes hard to get Uncle Sam to give his word, but when he gives it he will stand hitched. Never has a man had a greater or a better opportunity than Mr. Hoch. The party is his, almost to do with as he will.

Of course he will be held to strict account at some future time but just now the earth and the fullness thereof is his. The Legislature, no matter who is sent there, will be anxious to work in harmony with him It is an opportunity that comes to few men. We are so hard to please. There is a ditty which rhymes off the hu man feeling: "As a rule, man's a fool. Always wanting what he's not, never wantin what he's got.

When it's hot he wants it cold; when it's cold he wants it hot. Hence as a rule, man's a fool." Don't that take you in, friendly readers? In summer you long for winter, in winter for summer. You complain of the cold before the weather of anv season has gotten 'un der any headway. America became sponsor for the integrity of the Chinese empire at the conclusion of the Boxer uprising. Since that time China has -looked to us and the other nations of the world have reposed the confidence in us of making us responsible for the integ rity of the empire.

In the present war China wants to get in but in doing so the integrity of the empire comes up for consideration and Amer ica must be true to its trust. It is not a question of the right or wrong it is simply a question of America being loyal to her ward and keeping trust with the other nations. lit i 7 fliction of consigning to the grave his beloved wife and two little children. He continued to labor till 1851, when he married Ann Jane Gray and sailed for Europe to attend the great Peace Congress in London, to which he had been elected a delegate. While abroad Mr.

Dresser delivered several lectures in different parts of England and Scotland, and was everywhere well received. About this time he wrote a book on the peace question entitled "The Bible Against War." He laboreed as a Congregational pastor in Ohio till 18G5, when he removed to Michigan and engaged in home misionary work until 1S69 From that time he labored as a home missionary in Nebraska until 18S2. Was then financial agent of Franklin academy, Nebraska, till 1SS6. He served as pastor of the Congregational church at Camp Creek, until 189G. A severe attack of the grippe then so reduced his physical strength that he was obliged to give up preaching.

But though weak in body his mind continued active. During the later years of his life he wrote the following leaflets: "The Christian Flag," "The Pearl of Great Price," "The Import of the Word Son of Man," "Born of Water and the Spirit," and "Baptisma." The last named he wrote while in his ninetieth year. In the spring of 1903 he and his wife moved with their son to Lawrence, Kas. On the first of August his dear wife was taken from him. Though greatly missing her companionship, he bore his bereavement with beautiful Christian fortitude.

He has always been an earnest, zealous' worker for truth and against wrong in every form. He was the father of eight children, three of whom survive him: Amos Dresser of Chicago, F. F. Dresser and Mrs. E.

Cressman of Lawrence. With mind unclouded and conscious to the last, he peacefully fell asleep in Jesus at 9 o'clock, Thursday morning, February 4, 1904. "Blessed, indeed, are the dead who die in the Lord." Are You Growing Old? Here is the Atchison Globee's idea of a real sign of old age: "Do you wake up in the night, and wonder what time it is, and get up and make a light to see? That is a sign of age. What difference does it make what time it is? None whatever, but as you get older this insane desire to know what time it is attacks you every few hours. The light flickering in a house after night is usually carried by some barefooted old man who is on his way to peer into the face of the clock.

The old women are not so wakeful, having a good deal of sleep to make up which they lost when their children were little."

Amos Dresser died at the home of his son, F.F Dresser, at Lawrence, Kansas, February 4, 1904, aged 91 years. He was born in Peru, December 17, 1812. He was a descendent of Robert Cushman, a Mayflower pilgrim. He was one of the leading actors of the stirring anti-slavery period, and was connected besides with one of the most stirring incidents in the history of Oberlin and Lane seminaries. He came to Cincinnati as a young man in 1S30, at the time of the opening of Lane seminary, of which he was one of the first pupils.

Horace Bushnell was one of his classmates. Dr. Lyman Beecher and Prof. Calvin B. Stowe were among his instructors.

He was among the members of the famous Anti-Slavery society of the seminary. The society awoke a storm in the city, so that the trustees of the seminary issued an order suppressing it, and the beloved Prof. John Morgan was dismissed because of his sympathy with it. The result was the famous migration to Obsrlin, where Prof. Morgan was installed as a professor.

Mr. Dresser was one of the migrating students, thus being present at the birth of two great educational institutions. For years, so intense was the odium resting upon Oberlin as an anti-slavery college that, in the words of Mr. Dreser, "none but those who had back bone stamina would enter the institution." Amos Dresser. lie had, however, even severer test of his courage, as he was roughly handled by a Tennessee mob and given twenty lashes on the bare back for having some abolition tracts in fiis baggage, and was even obliged to await a debate as to whether his life should be spared.

This was the martyr-arre of anti-slaverv, and Mr. Dresser's name will ever be honorably associated with those whom Providence has called at different time to suffer in behalf of an- enslaved and unfortunate race. In the fall of 1S36 he accepted a commision as one of the seventy lecturers sent forth at that time by the American Anti-Slavery society, and continued lecturing winters and studying summers till the fall of he married Adaline Smith and sailed as a misionary to Jamaica. Here he labored with zeal and diligence among the emancipated slaves, until both himself and wife were so broken down in health that they were compelle'd to relinquish the field and return to the United States. After his return he resided two years near Cincinnati as pastor of a church, after which he msxmmimmmmmm ft- In Memory of S.

Lucinda Sutton (Baldwin) to All About the War. While the World has been receiving the latest and only really complete telegraphic report that has come to Lawrence since September, it has not boasted of the fact. It has used its space for general news and advertising and let the paper speak for itself. It has spoken most gloriously. However, at this time the World feels that it can encroach upon the usual space far enough to call attention to the fact that the war news in this paper is not only ihe latest but most reliable to be obtained.

The newspapers composing the Scripps-McRae league were asked to club together to, maintain a news bureau in the Orient and they all responded, although it must be confessed that a good many of them thought the war cloud would blow over. That the managers of the league were showing unusual and commendable enterprise in providing for possible war is now' apparent. The correspondents went to the scene of the war early and were thoroughly familiar with the plans and the country. The result of enterprise and faithfulness of these correspondents is now apparent to all who have been reading war news. The reports pub-I lished in the World are hot from the scene of the conflict.

The World will give the very latest news to be obtained during this war. This is the first big event that has happened since this paper began getting the dispatches, and it has waited for something of the kind in order to invite comparison. The World will 1 further to ex ploit itself, but will in the future, as service to speak for itself. Louisjin the past allow its splendid news Brooks (Baldwin); $G0; lots 97 to 102.
