A. GREAT GIFT.
•$40,000 to be Divided by Franklin Miles, M. D., LL.D., in the Form of Free Treatment to the
Amount of $2.50 to Suf^ ferers from Nerve, Stomach, Heart and Other
Diseases.

Th:: lir te sum will be devoted to relieving -sufi.Mi.ni brluKint health and hope to hundreds of people hy tlie plan recently made ipulillc 1)J" Franklin Miles, LL.D., the noted physician of Chicago.
Dr. Wiles is :m enthusiast, on the subject of ^nervous hear*, stomach. liver, lung and kldj" diseases."1' I'or twentv-four years he has •stuii nt these diseases, aided by trained assistants, and he is away in advance of ordinary siiedical practice in curing then,.
His discoveries of the lntlueuce of the brain and nerves in lingering and chronic diseases have niven liini a marvelous control over cases hatordinary physicians call "hopeless."
His treatment, ol nearly 50,000 cases has ytven him an exnerlence that places him in advance of any other man in his profession.
Dr. Miles recently offered to give treatment worth $-2.50 absolutely free tc 16.000 people. This oiler aroused a greatdeai of interest,and letters are pjurintr in on the doctor from •every state in the Union and from Canada and Mexico.
Altoeether the amount to be given in this -way will be 140,1100, a fortune with which many physicians would be content.
But Dr. Miles has a higher ambition. His aim is to spread the trin.li of his medical discoveries until physicians everywhere are obllffed to come up to the mark he has set. AlTeadv tho more progressive ones are recofinlzintr he truth whien Dr Miles has lomr taught, that when theuervesor nerve centres which control an or^an are diseased they must be treated and cured before the oi-gan can be•come strong and healthy.
In hundreds of cases by Pimply restoring nerve-health. Dr. Miles has cured diseases of 1 he heart, stomach or liver which doctors had IOUK wrestled with in vain.
He lias found that dyspepsia, heart disease and other functional or organic troubles -which become chronic and are abandoned by the average physician can bo cured by treating the cause, which he has dlcovered with absolute accuracy In his studies of the ner•vous system.
I'eop'A of KtroDK common sense are especially altraoted by Dr. Miles' course of treatment. He insists that sick people who are violating tho laws of nat ure shall first conform to those laws before medicine is administered. and hemvesfull and plain directions for clnr.hinir, flkit and habits of living which brlnfi the general health up to tho mark and •make recovery more rapid than it otherwise -•would be.
Upon Dr. Miles' liberal offer it costs nothing to fret his opinion of any case and to jrlve a. trial to his system of treatment. Vnyone •who wants to take advantage of this .traordinary opportunity is invited by Dr. Miles to •write, addressing America's Medical institute, Suite 1316. Masonic Temple.Chicago,111.

MISS KROUT IS CANDID.
slie Says Gladstone Wag a "Weatliercoclt and Catered to the Masses.
Terre Haute
Exiircss:
Yesterday
morning Miss Mary Hannah Krout, of Crawfordsville, was present at a conversazione given by Mrs. I. N. Pierce. Quite a number of other thinking women were there also and Miss Krout, who has traveled considerably and written a great deal, was asked to give a talk on what she had'seen. The newspaper woman consented and during the ensuing hour entertained her listeners very highly.
Miss Krout spoke very happily .of many places she had visited, but the point of supreme interest in her remarks was reached when she was asked if she ever had met Gladstone. The correspondent responded negatively to this question and rather startled her auditors by admitting that she never had felt any desire to meet the man who was four times premier of England and the history of whose oratory and statesmanship is a proud heritage not only to Great Britain but to the world. The
Qazdtc
thus sum
marises Miss Krout's reference to Gladstone: "At this juncture some one asked Miss Krout if she met Mr. Gladstone. vShe replied that Bhe had made no effort to do so. That she was aware of the Latin proverb that only good should be spoken of the dead, but that she was not an admirer of Mr. Gladstone and had always regarded him as an overestimated man. This created a perceptible flutter among the ladies. She went on to give her reasons for so regarding him. She expressed the opinion had Mr. Gladstone's wishes been carried out the southern confederacy would have been successful and that on all leading questions he had been a weathercock following popular opinion and while ostensibly a leader was always led by the masses."
Miss Krout, while she is not among Gladstone's adtairers, thinks a great deal of Salisbury. She paid a glowing tribute to him commending his domestic as well as public life, especially noting his advocacy of woman's suffrage. The fact that the women of London vote for their mayors, she said, was not generally known in this country.
Here questions about the Hawaiian Islands were showered upon her, it being well known that she is thoroughly conversant on all phases of this subject. Miss Krout, while she claims she is not an annexationist, still can see no solution to the problem otherwise. She says she feels that the possession of the islands by tne United States is a logical conclusion and that the undeveloped resources would more than compensate for any outlay by this goverment. The natives are law abiding, peaceable people, intelligent to a certain extent. Limitations are reached in their style of goverment that result in continual revolutions, but with a steady power at the helm Hawaii would become a prosperous, growing adjunct to our nation.
Miss Krout has now in the hands of publishers a book on Hawaii which will be one of the most complete yet issued on this subject. It will be put on sale in September. She is now preparing a volume of reminiscences on her two and a half years' experience in England.
She gave beautiful descriptions of the flowers of Honolulu, not only the tropical products but the wonderful growth of all flowers of other latitudes and of how the people make garlands of them and wear them about their persons.
Those who have not heard Miss Krout talk, in a public way, for Eeveral years noted the broadening of her style and her facility in the selection of choice and expressive words. Foreign travel has agreed with her physically. She has never enjoyed so fine health as now.
Miss Krout stated that while out one Sunday with a friend in Paris they meta party who were quite boisterious and conspicuous in their conduct. Her friend said, "Oh! they are trippers." All excursionists are called trippers. Miss Krout said she was a tripper when in Paris having come over from London for a brief stay, and that she made frequent trips, finding them delightful. On one excursion which she took while there she found herself the only woman in a party of stalwart men. This alone would have made her conspicuous, but the fact that two of them were curates who stopped at out of the way localities to distribute tracts made the party boisteriously conspicuous and known to the residenters as trippers. When luncheon hour approached since she had partaken of an early breakfast, an American one, not European, she did not care to take the time or incur the expense of an elaborate meal at the hotel as mapped out for the tourist, but rather selected a modest little creamery kept by a woman. When she told the gentlemen of her plans they all asked to be allowed to go and go they did, filing into the little apartment, quite overpowering the kcc^r, who had to go out and borraw'di&hes and additional supplies. Soon an audience was gathered peering into the- win
dows and doors at the solitary woman surrounded by men to look at the trip, pers. The hack drivers use the term "full up" when no more can be accommodated. When the party reached the cemetery of the Pere la Chaise some one asked if people were still buried there. The driver replied, "No full up."
KILL IT.
The Citnada Thistle Appearing Over the btate Again Tins Year in A larmtng Otmntity.
The Canada thistle has appeared in the state again and geologist Blatchley speaking of it says: "This is one of the most pernicious of weeds. It may be recognized by its numerous small heads, which are less than half the size of those of the common thistle also, by its slender 6tem, seldom more than two feet in height, and its upright, flowing branches. Its leaves are very prickly, and no stock, except sheep, will touch them, and they only when other food is wholly lacking. "Where it gains a foothold this thistle covers the surface of the earth so thickly that nothing else is visible. One can not see a spear of grass, as the thistle soon crowds it out and smothers it. It is a plant of northern range, which is slowly spreadingsouthward, and within the last few years has been noted in a numoer of places in northern Indiana. Numerous large patches were noted last season along the railways of Lake and Porter counties, and a half acre or more also flourished undisturbed neatthe center of the city of Hammond. It has been sent to me for determination from near Somerset, Wabash county, and Kewanna. Fulton county. 1 have not before heard
tof
its occur
rence as far south as Marion county, "Being a perennial it is very difficult to eradicate. Its root stocks are creeping and spreading deep beneath the surface, sending up new stems, thus multiplying the plant. Where few in numbers they can be killed by pulling them up. Larger patches in level ground can be exterminated only by several plowings. On hillsides and broken ground they can only be kept down by successive mowing close to the ground. In a few seasons the root stocks will die out. as the leaves are necessary to prepare nourishment for the plant. Applications of hot brine, kerosene or carbolic acid can also be used advantage. "Now is the time to prevent the spread of the species by destroying the pioneers. A few years ago not more than a dozen stalks of prickly lettuce grew iu Marion county. They were neglected and now it flourishes by thousands on every common and piece of waste land in the city, and along every roadside in the country. Every gardener, every farmer, yea, every land owner in the county must henceforth now and forever pay the penalty of that neglect by continued hoeing, plowing and mowing to keep that weed in subjugation. Thus will it be with the Canada thistle if the few now here are allowed to flourish unmolest-
A Settler.
The other day during the trial of Norris, the highwayman, Dave Mitchel was called to the stand. Dave had been at the craps game on the fatal Saturday night and he testified very sweetly indued until asked who else was in the room. Then he shut up like a clam. The prosecutor asked him several times the same question, but Dave sat in sullen silence. Judge West sat patiently for several minutes and then,turning quietly to the sheriff, said: "Mr. Sheriff, you will take this man to the jail and keep him there until I order him brought up again." The effect on Dave was wonderful. He simply fell all over himself in his haste to answer, and the rest of the time he wr.s on the stand he was a most docile and willing witness.
