HE HAD A BAD HABIT.

And It Made Him n. Poor Insurance Risk In Kentucky.

The manager of a life insurance company hud the floor. "Life insurance companies," he was Baying, "are as particular about the people they already have on their lists as they are about getting them on in the beginning. They are rich, of course, Due they are no more anxious to take ip a man who will diepf disease within the first year or two than they are to take in a perfectly healthy man and have him hazqjd his life by taking personal rigke in dangerous pursuits or by travel in unhealthy countries. "I remember a funny instance that occurred once while I was living io New England. One of our $10,000 men had away of calling a man a liar in the most careless and indiscriminate manner and with only the merest or no provocation. One day he was in onr office and casually mentioned the fact that he was going to make a trip to Kentucky. 'When inquired the manager alertly. 'Next week' 'On business or pleasure?' 'Going to buy a pair of horses.' 'Um—er—erl' hesitated the man* ager. 'Before you start I wiBh yon would stop in and see me.' 'What for? Want me to boy a horse for you 'No: I want to arrange about your policy.' 'What do you want to arrange about it? Isn't it all right?' 'Yes, as long as you stay in this country. But if you go down to Kentucky we'll have to advance the rate until you come back.' "'Well, what in ,' began the policy holder hotly, when the manager interrupted him. 'Don't fly the track, my dear fellow,' he said gently. 'It's all right here and the rate is satisfactory to us but, by Jove, we can't give you the same rate and let you go to Kentucky and call men liars like you do in this section. Not much! We haven't got $10,000 policies to give away like that, anc* you oughtn't to expect it.' —Washington Star.

IMAGINATION.

It Really Doe* Rood Deal In Tlila Life. Doesn't It?

"I am beginning to believe that imagination has a good deal to do with the effect of cold on the average pereon," remarked a tourist who arrived while the arctic wave was waving its worst. "One of the passengers on our train was a man who had just returned from the Klondike, where he spent three •olid years without breaking his constitution to any appreciable extent •'At least so he declared, and his hardy, rugged appearance bore out the assertion. He made the return trip over Chilkoot pass in midwinter and was on his way to his home in west Alabama. "When we struck the blizzard, we were ail more or less uncomfortable, bn* nobody seemed to suffer half as much as the man from the Klondike. He waB warmly dressed, yet he shivered like au aepen, and his lips were absolutely blue. "He told me he had thoroughly expected to find spring weather down here and had looked forward to it with the greatest eagerness. "I presume the cold took him completely by surprise, and he was unable to resist it mentally, which is just as important as resisting it physically. In the north folks 'make up their minds to It,' as the saying goes, and pull through all right. Here the thing is so phenomenal that it seems next door to spite Work on the part of nature, and we dwell on the discomforts as a sort of personal grievance. "When I last saw the Klondiker, he was expecting pneumonia so confidently that I'm sure he will feel disappointed If he doesn't get it '—New Orleanj Timee-Peiaorrat

Aceortliug to a celebrated ana to mist there are upwards of f,000,000 little glands in the human stomach. These glands pour out the digestive juices which dissolve or digest the food. Indigestion is want of juice weakness of glands, need of help to restore the health of these organs. The best and most natural help is that given by Shaker Digestive Cordial. Natural, because it supplies the materials needed by the glands to prepare tbe digestive juices. Because it strengthens and invigorates the glands and the stomach, until they are able to do their work alone. Shaker Digestive Cordial cures indigestion certainly and permanently. It does so by natural means, and therein lies the secret of its vvonderfu and un.\aried success.

Aljout four years ago one side of my abdomen began to enlarge from a growth inside. It grew to such proportions that it seemed to fill the abdomen. Then dropsy began and swelled both legs and stomach to twice their normal size. The doctors culled the trouble enlargement of the spleen, aud told me I must die. I was removed from the hospital and sent for Dr. J. H. McLean's Liver and Kidney Balm. I took seven bottles and continually gained and am well iu every way now. The dropsy entirely disappeared and left the growth very small.

YOU ARE A DEMOCRAT

and, of course, want a democratic newspaper. The Chicago Dispatch is the great democratic weekly newspaper of the country. It advocates the readeption of the platform aud the renomination of William Jennings Bryan.

There has never been a political campaign that will equal in importance that of the one to be fought next year. The republican party, backed by the money power of this country and Europe, is alert and aggressive. Flushed with the victory of three years ajtjo itfwill seek bv every means in its power to maintain its supremacy.

Democrats must be up and doing. They must wage an unceasing war upon their enemies. In no better and more effective way can this be done than by the circulation of good, sound democratic newspapers. The publisher of the Chicago Dispatch, will send to every new subscriber for three months a copy of the Chicago Dispatch for ten cents. If you are not already taking this great political weekly, send in ten cents at once. You should not only do this yourself but you should induce all your friends to join with you. By a little effort you can easily raise a club of ten or twenty subscribers.

The Chicago Dispatch is indorsed by William Jennings Bryan and other democratic leaders.
