A Good Example "1 am a good example," writes Mrs. R. L. Bell, of McAlester, Okla., "of what Cardui will do for suffering women. "1 suffered with my head and back, for over six yeais, and although I tried everything, I never could get any thing to do me any good, until I began to take Cardui. Cardui has surely helped me and built me up and 1 am so thankful that 1 have found something that will do me good. 1 feel so much stronger and better than I have in a long time." It is weil to make up your mind before you are sick what medicine you will take when you are sick. Take CARDUI J -?7 The Woman's Tonic You will be glad to take it when you are tired, mis erable and when life seems a weary grind. It will put new thoughts into your head, fresh courage into your mind. If not sick now, at least burn Cardui on to the pages of your memory, so that when you are sick you will ask for it without thinking. If sick or weak, get a bottle today. At all druggists.

I^eathorstono announces the platform upon which lir is making iIn- rnco for governor, us follows: I mn against whiskey, out-and-out. in all uf Its form? ;iinl phases. I al ways have boon ami always < xpcct in in". I stand for ;i sober Christian innnhooil in South Carolina, some thing we cannot havo in all of its strength as long1 aw tin- whiskey traf fic exists. Local option is tolerated by tine prohibitionists, not because ? is right, imt as a means to an (mi<1: tin' end being to gel rid of the truf fle in toto. it was my good fortune to Btump tin- stale in advocacy of prohibition in I89S, a time when the old State dispensary was in the zenith of its power. I fought for what I conceived to he right, and went down in defeat because ! was opposed to the dispen sary. Recognizing in that campaign its political strength, to dethrone the dispensary and secure prohibition, 1 have favored local option as a means to that end. and have been doing all in my power to build up a healthy an ti-whiskey centimeilt, I have worked in season and out; I have spoken in nearly every county in the State. 1 nill thankful that I have lived to see. and have taken part in a cam paign which has resulted in the whis key lraffe being swept out of every county in the stale save six. In my judgment the lime has come for it to he swept out of the entire State, and 1 am in for the war. I stand for a prohibition law which will he provided with the necessary machinery to insure its enforcement and. if elected governor, l will enforce the law .or exhaust the powers of the executive department in the attempt. "A Itusiness Vdmlulstrutloii," a good deal is being said about wanting a "business administration." ah right: That is what the prohibi tionists want, and arc compentcnt to render. 1 dislike to bo personal, but 1 invite a close and careful inspection of my own career as a business man. I did not inherit money; I am not a rich man, hut an inspection of my ca reer will. I think, reveal the fact that I am far from a failure along that line. Education. On educational matters. I am in hearty accord with the well-defimd policy of the siate. i believe in edu cation to the fullest extent, flood cit izenship demands it. and must havo it. The stale is absolutely dependent upon the quality of its eiti/.ensship for good government; and the quality re quired cannot he had without educa t ion. Especially am I in favor of per fecting the public school system, the school where at least three-fourths ol our children will get all they will ever have of education. And I am most heartily in accord with the high school idea. Our col leges arc. to a groat extent, doing high school work. They could shorten the college term and do better work if the students entered hotter prepared. Es pecially are high schools needed in rural listricts, for there they would put high school education in reach of children of parents of moderate mean:;?parents who cannot afford to send to college. Our young people must not only he developed along menial and moral lines, but along physical as well. TJtcy must havo sound bodies. This idea has never received the at tention that it should In our common I school system. Improper constructed buildings, want 'of proper attention to the laws of sanitation and hygiene and Iho failure , to provide a system of medical in spection have brought about a con dition of .affairs extremely detrimen tal to our young people along physical lines. I am most heartily in favor ol a system of medical inspection in our common schools, to the end that the above evils may, to a large extent, be overcome. Our people, and especial ly our young people, need education along those linos. The powers of our hoard of health should bo nelOTged and our people should receive the very best instruction possible looking to the preservation and building np Of physical health. In connection with schools and es pecially the rural schools, the pres ent tendency towrds Industrial train ing should bo encouraged and assisted. Qood citizenship must In large mea sure rest on the ability of the people to Utilize effclently and economically their natura lresoureos. Our prlnel 1 pal rosoiicc being land and the des tiny of the State being agricultural, the farmer hoy and girl should Ik taught to make the most of the farm, so that It shall bo a doslrablo homo and that farming shall bo n profitable Calling, Town schools ",s well should have Industrial training, but I empha size It as to the rural schools because In thinly peopled districts the stimuin tlon of school growth,is a hanler prob I >m. Training the handB of the hoys and ?Irls to do necessary things with skill, in parallel lines with their moral and mental training, is the shortest ami easiest way to inko good, happy and Independent men and women. Taxation. The question of taxation has al ways been a troublesome one for governments to deal with. No sys tem that is dependent upon Unite men for it ; < nforcement can ever in- pet - feet, or perfectly enforced. The clilol trouble with i.il systems i- the dlfll culty that exists with reference to equalization. So Ion;: as every citizen pays upon the same basis of valuation no injury is done. But to secure this equalization has been the trouble ever since government was organized. The man who can solve this question will solve the most difficult one connected with government affairs. There is one thing with reference to taxation, however, upon which all property holders are agreed, namely: We do not want to pay any more tax es than are necessary to good gov ernment. 1 cannot he denied that the tendency in modern times is towards, extravagance in individual ltd in gov ernmental life. It is easy to make large appropriations and spend the hard earned money of tue peo| le. A halt must he called. Taxation hits gotton to he a burden upon our peo ple. 11 I am correctly informed, we are now paying more Stale taxes than we have ever paid. Of course, it must he borne in mind, that increase in population and pro gress along other lines call for the expenditure of more money in order that tlx* efficiency of the public ser vice may he maintained. But is it not true that tin* increase Of taxable, values shown on (he books from year to year, ought to ho ample to meet the increase in our expenditures? It occurs to me that such is the case, and there should be no further in-1 crease in the rate of taxation. ? I am in favor of economy; i am not in favor of impairing the public ser vice by niggardliness. In this connection. I want to say i that I am in favor of biennial sessions of the general assembly. One every two years Is often enough | for it to meet. I I am also in favor of fewer elec- < lions. In my judgment all State and county offic ials should be elected for a term of four years. A change in | these respects would bring about a j considerable saving to the taxpayers and would prove beneficial along other lines. I.an Enforcement. The last thing which I desire to touch is the enforcement of law and order. The sorest spot in our gov ernmental life is the weakness of our people along that line. They must be taught to respect and obey the law. Herein lies the only safe-guard to life, liberty and property. Govern ment is worthless if it does not pro tect these. I low shall the enforcement of law and order be made more effi cient? I answer. First?By better discipline in the home. Second?-By getting better men in the jury box. Third?By inflicting punishment commensurate with the offense. Fourth?By a refusal on the part of the chief < xecutive to pardon men who have been convicted. It will do little or no good to convict men of crime If they know they will likely be pardon ed. The pardoning power should not be employed save in rare cases. Conclusion. There are numberless other mat ters to be given duo attention in the campaign. But these five questions are fundamental: Prohibition, admin istration, education, taxation, lav en forcement. in conclusion, let me say that. If elected. I shall endeavor to perform my duties fearlessly and impartially; that in their disCharge I shall know no section, no men. nor sot of men.
