We have passed from a bond

tioa from a nation of borrowers to a nation of lenders from a deficiency in revenue to a susv plus from fear to confidence from enforced idleness to profit-' able employment, The public faith has been upheld public order has been maintained with prosperity at home and prestige abroad.—President McKinley's speech at Canton.

Thk Democrats have given up the fight. The have begun to yell fraud.

Mr. BUYAN'S specialty is gloom. He ought to receive the solid support of the anti-sunshine party.

The public debt shows a decrease of $6,122,435 during the last month— another evidence that this is not a Democratic administration.

Mil. HANNA is accused of conspiring to injure Mr. Bryan by trying to bringabout the settlement of the coal miners' strike. Contentment on the part of labor is always a menace to Bryanism.

If Bryan keeps on twisting and distorting the utterances of Lincoln people will begin to wonder whether it is William Jennings Lincoln or Abraham Bryan who is running for the Presidency. ..

PHYSICIAN, IIHAI, TIIYSKLF It is over a jear since Bryan made that speech denouncing each and every monopoly, but he is repeating the same doctrine to-day. October 10, he asked in his speech at Nashville, Michigan: "Do you know of any good monopoly in private hands? Do you know of any man good enough to stand at the head of any monopoly, and determine the price of that which others are to use?"

Well, there is a certain book known as "The First Battle,'' which is an article of merchandise, and an absolute monopoly in W. .1. Bryan's bands. Quite an expensive one, indeed, to many poor men, who have felt that they must have it. On the reverse side of the title page of that interesting work we read: Entered accord.njj to Act (.f Congress, in the year 1896,

If it were not for Bryan's absolute monopoly of the book, farmers, workingmen and tho horny-handed sons of toil in general could have secured the work for one-third or even a quarter of what they have had to pay for it.

LKSTWE FOItGJST.

For nearly four years we have been drifting along the shores of an unknown sea. Shall we, without chart or com-

pass, set out on a voyage, to laud we know not where, or return to the old constitution? We implore patriotic and intelligent men to pause and reilect, and give their verdict on Tuesday next. If the people do not save their priceless constitution and Union, it is lost.— Indianapolis Sentinel, Oct. 7, 1S04.

We are now governed by the laws of war and the laws of nations alone, and Mr. Lincoln is the supreme dictator and dispenser of those laws' These expressions present in a nutshell the issue of the present contest—the issue of a centralized despotism as represented in the cause of which Mr. Lincoln is the exponent and of constitutional liberty of which General McClellan is the standard bearer.—Jndanapolii* Sentinel, Nov. 3, 1S04.

STOLEN RIG RECOVERED.

Marshal Brothers Locates the Property Here—The Thief Escapes.

Last Friday morning Marshal Brothers received a postal card telling him to look out for a young man named Richard Boyd who had stolen a horse and buggy the day before from John Tucker, at Armiesburg, Parke county. Tucker and family had gone to the Terre Haute -street fair, leaving the hired hand, Boyd, in charge. As soon as they were out of sight Boyd hitched up the horse and skipped. Marshal Brothers visited the several feed and livery stables here and notified them to look out for the rig. The description given of Boyd en the card was very faulty, however, and when he later in the day appeared at Kline's stable on Market street and put up nothing was thought of it. lie said to feed the horse and he would return for it in a short time. When Monday morning came and he had still not returned Marshal Brothers was called in. He at once recognized the rig from the description and wired Tucker at once. Tucker arrived last Monday and took his horse and buggy home It is thought that Boyd became fearful of apprehension and deserted the rig here.

Indianapolis Sentinel: A brilliant! audience assembled at Propylaeum last I evening in response to invitations issued by the Daughters of the Araeri-: can Revolution, to hear a most eujoya-1 ble and entertaining lecture on "Manila"' by Miss Mary Hannah Krout. Miss Krout is one of the brightest and most interesting talkers before the public. As a newspaper woman of international reputation she has spent much time in foreign lands gathering incidents of distinct news value. Her talk is as brilliant as her pen and she has the rare ability to paint word pictures that live in the memory as well as to go into the causes and effects of conditions of government. In her last evening's lecture Miss Krout described her tour of the Philippine islands and the climate, the tlora, and the fauna existing there She described the city

ICopyright, 1900, by American Pross Association.] 1, 2. "This man receivoth sinners and cttteth with them." What a great and glorious truth is this which the Pharisees uttered in derision of Ilini whom they despised and sought to slay. As the Spirit says through Paul, "This is a faithful saying and worthy of all hcceptation that Christ Jesus came into the world to sin sinners." lie Himself said, "The Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which was lost" (1 Tim. i, 13 Luke xix. 101. This chapter in which we have two lessons ami which is generally known as the parables ol' the lost sheep, the lost coiu and the lost son, might also be termed the chapter ol' the love of the Trinity for the lost, for wi see in the first parable'the love of the Good Shepherd, the Son of God: in,the second, the love of the Spirit, and in the third, the love of the Father, while the lost sheep suggests our inclination to go astray, the lost coin our deadness to our own condition, and the lost son shows our selfishness and ingratitude. Tho deficiency in each case makes manifest the love of God. I o, 4. lie reminds tliem of what they knew well, that if a man should lose one slice]), even though he had many left, he would leave those which were sate and seek the lost one till lie should liud it. I lie did not imply that the ••scribes and Pharisees were safely in the fold, hut they supposed they were, and their own estimation they needed no Saviour. They thanked God that they were not like the publicans anil were not ashamed to tell God how good they were (l.uke xviii, 11, 112). For such self righteous people, who in their own estimation needed no redemmiun, the Saviour had none, but for such as felt (heir sinfulness nnd cried, "God be merciful to me, a sinner," He had forgiveness and plenteous redemption. From the time when lie sought Adam, hiding among the trees in the garden, with the question, "Where art thouV" lie has been ever seeking the lost. There is ever a seeking Saviour. 5. "And when he hath found it he layeth it on his shoulders, rejoicing." See the joy of the shepherd and the safety and rest of the lost one. lie shall feed his flock like a shepherd: lie shall gather the lambs with his arm nnd carry them in Ilis bosom. The beloved oi the Lord shall dwell in safety by Him, and the Lord shall cover liini all the day long, and he shall dwell between his shoulders (Isa. si, 11 Dent, x.vxiii, 12). We are apt to think more of our joy in our salvation than of our Lord's joy in saving us, and yet it is written, "He will save He will rejoice over thee with joy He will rest in his love lie will joy over thee with singing" l/opb. iii 17). The expression, "The joy of the Lord is your strength" (Nch. viii. 10) may suggest that the Lord's?joy in His jvople and in caring for them is our stieiigvli. "Rejoice with me," for 1 have found

my sheep which was lost." The shepherd reaches .home with his Ic-'f one safe on his shoulders. There is.,no possibility of any. one whom He it-eoes er falling from Ilis •••shoulders by the way. John! x, U-), 2:». makes this absolutely certain, and there are m? contrfl'dicUoris in Scriptuie. Joy must have teii'mvsbip: it (Tannot he i.rpl to oneself. We curf easily understand this hut if this is the case with the one who finds, how is it that the ones horn lie trails and whom lie makes so safe can keep their joy io themselves and not be longing to tell others of tile Sa\iour who has found them? 7. "1 say unto you that likewise joy shall be ,n heaven over one sinner that repentetli. The Son of God said this, and He came from heaven, and that is1 Ilis home, to which He has returned and from which He sees and controls all tilings on the earth (John vi, I'S xvii, 11 Math, .\x\iii. IS, l'Jj. The !.)!• who need no repentance must refer to thojfe who think I hey need no repentance, who, be-! ing ignorant of God's righteousness and going about to establish their own righteousness. have not submitted themselves' to the righteousness of God (Ilotn. x, 3), hut where one is convinced of sin and made willing to receive the salvation of the Lnid such a one causes especial joy in heaven. "Seek diligently till she find it." 1 hi pait nf ilie parable contiuues to show one seeking for that which has been lost. '1 lie chapter does not give us three parables, but one parable in three parts,, for the phrase "this parable" (verse 31 seems to include the whole chapter. The Woman with the candle is suggestive of the church using the word in the power of the spirit. Adam and I've are typical of Christ and the church (ICph. v. 31, 32), and in 11 (.'or. xi, 2, the church is com-i pared to chaste virgin. In Ps. cxix, 10.», we read, "Thy word is a lamp (mar-1 gin, candle) unto my feet and a light unto my path." In John vi, l.J3, our Lord said that Ilis words were spirit and life. The piece of silver makes one think cf the deadness of a sinner to a sense of his' condition, but the word that causes dry bones to live (K/.ek. xxxvii, 7) can give! life to dead souls and even bring deadj bodies from their graves. 9. "Itejoice with me. for I have found the piece which I had lost." It is possible on this earth and in the midst of manifold trials to rejoice greatly with! exceeding joy. Though sorrowful, we! may be alway rejoicing (I Pet. i, 0-cS

We may have tribulation untroubled hearts (Johnj 27). To be privileged to

be a channel of such life to a dead soul' is, next to one's own salvation, the greatest joy on earth, and others who know the joy of salvation are ready to rejoice with one who is so used of God. It is all the working of God, who worketh in us both to will and to do of Ilis good pleasure (Phil, ii, 13 lleb. xiii, 21). To Him be the glory. 10. "Likewise, I say unto you, there is joy in the presence of the angels of God over one sinner that repentetli." While no nmrcl can experience the joys of redemption, they rejoice with those who ore redeemed. See Rev. v, 11, 12. They are ministering spirits ministering to the heirs of solvation. They excel in strength and do His commandments, hearkening unto the voice of Ilis word (lleb. i, 14 Ps. ciii, 20). They are our constant companions having continual access to God, nnd it may be that when a soul Is saved the angels speedily make it known to the relatives of that one wdio are in heaven. May we live to gi?e joy on earth and in heaven.

THE TURN OF LIFE."

The Most Important Period in a Woman's Existence.—Mrs. Johnson Tells How She Was Helped

Over the Trying Time.

CHARLOTTE J0HN50N

Owing' to modern methods of living, not one woman in a thousand approaches this perfectly natural chang-e without experiencing a train of very annoying', and sometimes painful symptoms.

Those dreadful hot Hashes, sending the blood surging to the heart until it seems ready to burst, and the faint feeling that follows, sometimes with chills, as if the heart were, going to »top for good, are only a few of the symptoms of a dangerous nervous trouble. The nerves are crying out for assistance. The cry should be heeded in time. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound was prepared to meet the needs of woman's system at this trying period of her life.

The three following letters are guaranteed to be genuine and true, and still further prove what a great medicine Lydia !£. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is for women. •vvr-

Dkak Mrs. Pineiiam I have been sick for a long time. I was taken sick with flooding. All my trouble seemed to be in the womb. I ache all the time at the lower part of the. womb. The doctor says the womb is covered with ulcers. I suffer with a pain on the left side of my back over the kidney. I am fifty years old and passing through the, change of life. Please advise me what to do to get relief. "Would like to bear from you as soon as possible." Mns. CuAtti.o'iTK Johnson', Monclova, Ohio. 'I Jan. 23, 1898.

I have been taking your remedies, and think they have helped me a great deal. I had been in bed for ton weeks when 1 began taking your Vegetable Compound, but after using it for a short time I was able to be up around the house. The aching in the lower part of womb has left me. The most that troubles me now is the flowing. That is not so bad, but still there is a little every day. I am not discouraged yet, and shall continue with your medicine, for 1 believe it will cure me." Mks. Cuaklotte Jouxson, Monclova,Ohio.

I send you this letter to publish for the benefit of others. I was sick for about nine years so that I could not do my work. For three months I could., not sit up long enough to have my bed made. I bad live different doctors, and all said there %vas no help for me. My trouble was change of life. I suffered with ulceration of the womb, pain in sides, kidney and stomach trouble, backache, headache, and dizziness. I am well and strong, and feel like a new peron. My recovery is a perfect surprise to everybody that knew me. I owe till to Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. I would not do without your medicine for anything1. There is no need of women suffering so much if they would take your remedies, for they are a sure cure."—.Mns. Cxiaki.ottjj Johnson, Monclova, Ohio..

When one stops to think about the good Mrs. Johnson derived from Mrs. Pinkham's advice and mediefne, it seems almost beyond belief yet it is all true as stated in her three letters published above at her own request.

As a matter of positive fact Mrs. l'inkham has on file thousands of letters from women who have been safely carried through that danger period Change of Life." Mrs. Johnson's cure is not an unusual one for Mrs. Pinkham's medicine to accomplish.
