THE POOR MAN AND THE CHURCH, There scois to be it disposil ion on the part of inaniy of the churches of the countr1'y lo disregrrd the spirit ual welfare of the poor man in favor of 11hv rieb. it. is til fort unlate, but too trie. Mli and women of wealth and so called r iitiomint, dominate the great iajority of the houses of worship, with tho result thit the p->or work ingmnaln is gniduiaiy b ipecoiiing forcod to the conclusion that he is out of his element and not, wanfted. A1any of our miniister's, white well Illealling pulhaps, IIrIel to the higher social set 1111 folge(4 it hat a heart bets in the breast of a poor iani in Shabhy clothes who (Iccupies the back seat. If ho makes his appear'anco at thei' social aflairs he is looked at. aikanico and aindo to fool his in ftioritv. When 1) woianl inl fine iraiment passes him she gathors up her skirts in fear of coiming into contact with one of the "collli in people." And what doos the poor iman do? After receiving a, few of* those re buf's he comes to the ponclusion that there ii io place in .the -hiouse of God for him, and romains away. And whero dos the fault lie? With the -minister and the rich man. With the minister because h fails to uso his position to bring about a botter feeling of Clmristian, spirit between the two extremos. With the rich man because of his presulption in considering himself above a mnani who is honest but poor. The ho11 (if God should be a place of refuge for all people, and hho soul of the poor uuan should be cherished as munch us the man with his millions. Banish worldly ideas when you enter the c1hureb*, and remember that God never judges a man by his dol lars and cents. A time for everything, oiverythinig ini its place, and no place empty, is a good ma~fxim1. The recent election has completoly destroyed all the presidential pros p)Oots some people never had. The result in Mary land wofild sEoun to make tiorman a strong can didate for the presidential nomina tion. ________ Long liveo the newv republic of Panama! May she enjoy to the ut termiost tihe fruits of iho Panama canal. The United States is drawing nearer to the wealth of South Aniori ca, which must seime (lay comoI under our conitrol. The day will come wvhen there will be no Central or South American re paiblics. The stars and stripes wvill wave ever thonr all. It is rather tough on the farmors of Kansas to have their wheat rotting on) the ground because they cannot get cars enough to haul it. A Now York genius has invontedl -paste by which men may shave without the use of a razor, but until ':ne other sucker trios it, wve'il stick he old reliable harb~er. ni isn't to be wvondored at that the ~I-ians are opposed to having -ani'o ideas introduced inito their o y. More thau one Ihalf of r population do net work. In view of the fact that it is to be a short session of congress Mr. Meor gan wvill hardly be expected to go to the troublo of winding up his jawv tackle for a spec -h on the canal ques. tieon. ________ Having killed the goose that was about to lay the golden egg, our Co lumbian friends may now sit on the fence and ee the now republie of Panama carry off the coin. The American people are watching' the course of events in. Panama with intense interest. 'I bey say Oily Rockefeller has an. nexed the aurora borealis and will use it for a hal). Now that Congress is in session again, the faimers may expect the usual distribution of goe Is and offi cial "pap." Speaker Cannon stamps himself a true representative of the people when he says that the speaker is the serv ant and not the master. Not a Sick Day Sinee. I was taken severely sivk with kidney trouble. I tried all sorts of medicines, none of which rolioved me. One day 1 saw an ad of your Eicotric Bitters and determined to iry that. After taking a few doses I felt relieved, and soon there after was entirely cured, and navo not beon sick n day since. Neighbors of mine have been cured of rheumatism, neuralgia, liver and kidney troubles and general debility." This is what B. F. JBass of Fermonit, N. U. writes. Only 0Ie itt Pickens D3rng Co. The new republic of Panama has undoubtedly como to stay. With a safu man in the executive chair and the expendhg of millions in building the canal, the residents of the isth mus will live in clover for many Moons. Best Liniment. '"hamOlaberhgins Pain Balm is consider. ed the best liniment on the markot," write Post & Bliss of Goorgin, Vt. No other liniment will heal a cut or bruise Ho promptly. No other afford such quiI relief for rhematic pains. No oth or is so valuable for deep seated pains liko lame back and ptins in the chest. Give this liniment a trial and you will never wish to be without it. Sold by Pickens Drug Co., Earles Drug Store, Pickens and T. N. Hunter, Libeity. It is not generally known that ex press companies in this country carry parcels for English mercantile houses at about one-fifth the rate charged our home people. The price ii the result of a special arrangement made with the British government. Nice, patriotic fellows, they arel Tho following extract from a letter writto by G. M. Harmon, editor of the I )ispatch, the proprietors of the Ranions Remediea is sel f-explanatory: "Thorn is no pills that equal Ramon s Pills; they leave the bowels and stomach with suchI Pleasant healthful feelings-no bad ef feet-after performing their work thor oighly. I have tried them and know whereof I speak." 25o at Earles Drug Stme, J. ). Moore, Oraig Bros. A rumor is floating around to the effect that Congressman Cannon, the next speaker, is setting up his pins for the presidency to succeed the in. coiming president. The rumor prob ably found its inception in the fact that Mr. Cannon is insisting on a large extension of rural free delivery. Froum South AfrIen. Mr, Arthur Chapman writing from Durban, Natal, South Africa, says: "As a proof that Chamberlain's Cough Rem ody is a cure suitable for old amnd y oung I pen you the following: A neighbor of nnne had a child just over two months old. It had a very bad cough and the p~arenta did not know wvhat to give it. I auggestedI that if they would get a bottle of Chamberlains Cough Remedy and put somuo upon the dummiy teat the baby wais sucking it wvould no0 doubt tmuro the child. I'his they did and brought about a (quick relief and oured the baby. This remedy is for sade by Piekens Drug Co., Earle's D)rug Store, Piokons and T.1. N Hunter, Liberty. One of our brainiest contemnporar mes strikes the keynote when it says that reckless and unscrupulous pro. moters have done more than legisla tion or preaching can (10 to put an oe to atock inflation and to discredit got-rich-quick concerns. Such enter prises must fool the p~ublic if they are to lill anyone's pockets and by their own greed they have wvarned the public to ight shy of them. MIanyi Nehmmo (laiIttri are Nickuly.
