MRS. MARY LEWIS, wife of a prominent farmer, and well known by all old residents near Belmont, N. Y,. writes: "For twenty-seven years I had been a constant sufferer from nervous prostration, a id paid larpe sums of money for doctors ami advertised remedies without benefit. Three years ago my condition was alarming; the least noise would startle and unnerve me. I was unable to sleep, had a number of sinking spells and slowly grew worse. I began usiujr Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine and Nerve and Liver Pills. At first the medicine seemed to have no effect, but after taking a few bottles I besan to notice a change; I rested better at night, my appetite began to iL.rove and I rapidly grew better, until now I am as nearly restored to health as one of my age may expect. God bless Dr.Miles'Nerrine Dr. Miles' Remedies are sold by all druggists under a positive guarantee, first bottle benefits or money refunded. Book on diseases of the heart and nerves free.

The gang that is trying to run the Republican office, seeks to brace up their shattered reputation for truthfulness and decency, by paying Hon. Samuel Parker a glowing tribute while attacking Representative Wise. A compliment from such a source v ill not be appreciated by Mr. Parker, neither will their "hog wash" affect the good name of our representative. An alderman of Ottawa, 111., has confessed in open court to the taking of n bribe of $500 from the Lafayette bridge company. It is said this company has been doing business in Nothern Indiana. Naturally suspicion is aroused that Ottawa is not the only place where the bribing process was resorted to make "things go." CARNEGIE IS FOR RR VAN". Andrew Carnegie, it is said on high authority, assured William J. Bryan, at a conference in Nt w York, that he would support the latter for president against McKinley on the expansion issue, provided Bryan is the democratic nominte. The announcement has created the greatest surprise in both parties. THE MONROE DOCTRINE. In the wars of the European powers in matters relating to themselves we have never taken any part, nor does it comport with our policy so to do. It is only when our rights are invaded or seriously menaced that we resent injuries or make preparation for our defense. With the movement in this hemisphere we are, of necessity, more immediately connected, and by causes which must be obvious to all enlightened and impartial observers. We owe it, therefore, to candor, and to the amicable relations existing between the United States and those powers, to declare that we should consider any attempt on their part to extend their system to any portion of this hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and si'f ety. With the exi-ting colonies and dependencies of any European power we have not interfered and shall not interfere. But with the governments who have declared their independence, and maintained it, and whose independence we have, on great consideration and on just principles, acknowledged, we could not view any interposition for the

purpose of oppressing them, or controlling in any other manner their destiny, by any European power, in any other light than as the manifestation of an unfriendly disposition towards the United States.

"Monroe alone of all the Presidents," writes President Cilman"has announced, without legislative sanction, a political dictum which is still regarded as fundamental law, and bears with it the stamp of authority in foreign courts as well as domestic councils. . . . But it was because he pronounced not only the opinion then prevalent, but a tradition of other days, which had been gradually expanded, and to which the country was wonted, that his words carried with them the sanction of public law." June 17, 178.. Jefferson, writing to Monroe from Paris, begs him to add his testimony to that of every thinking American, in order to satisfy our countrymen hoAf much it is to their interest to preserve, uninfected by contagion, those peculiarities in their government and manners to which they are indebted for those blessin gs Jefferson to Thomas. Paine, 1801. "Determined as we are to avoid, if possible, wasting the energies of our people in war and destruction, we shall avoid implicating ourselves with the powers of Europe, even in support of principles which we mean to pursue. They have so many other interests diffeient from ours that we must avoid being entangled in them. We believe we can enforce those principles, as to ourselves, by peaceable means, now that we are likely to have our public councils detached from foreign views." Jellenson to William Short, 18OI. "We have a perfect horror at ev erything like connecting ourselves with the politics of Europe. To be entangled with them would be a much greater evil than a temporary acquiescence in the false principles which have prevailed." 1'oliticHl SmImU. (Copyrighted by the McClure News Bureau.) Chicago, Dec. 2li, Senator Lee Mantle, of Montaus, a former republican and one of the western delegates who, with Senator Henry M Teiler at their head, walked out of the Republican National Convention, in St. Louis, in 18'JO, when it was evident that it was committed to the policy of gold monnnuetallif m, was in the city Monday evening on his way to Washington. Mr. Mantle is a sincere believer in the principle of bimetallism as well as in the ultimate triumph, at the polls, of this principle and it was therefore with considerable interest that I listened to his answer when he was asked: "What effect, do you think, the late elections have had on the silver question ?" Replying deliberately the Senator said; "It is idle to deny that the recent election?, throughout the west, at least, were a distinct dieapointment to silver people, and while I hope the ßilver ques tion will be the dominant issue in 11KX), 1 am not certain of it. The silver republicans and sincere populists of th? west have been led to believe that the leaders of the democratic party were gradually dropping the silver issue and thst when 11)00 had arrived that plank of the platform of 1818 would be shelved. Hence, owing to this biief, the democratic majorities in the west showed a falling off in comparison with those of 18W." While thinking over this view of the result, as taken by Senator Mantle,! happened to run across Ex-Governor Wm. J. Stone, of Missouri, who was just entering the Unity Building. There is no other man, perhaps, more competent to define the tenets of democracy than he and I hastened to greet him. An inquiry as the occasion of his visit to Chicago at this tune elicited this answer: "1 came to Chicago this morning, first to attend the dinner given this evening to delegates attending the National (iuard Convention, and secondly, to confer with Governor Altgeld and Mr. Harvey about the work ot our Ways arid Means Committee, now engaged in raising funds by popular subscription with which to prosecute the campaign in favor of bimetallism and against plutocratic rule in this country ." Upon learning the position taken by Senator Mantle on the results of the late elections Governor Stone said: "I do not agree with Senator Mantle. I do not believe that any democratic leader, or democrat of prominence, has ever contemplated for one moment the

droppiug of the 'silver issue,' so called. The financial plank of the Chicago platfoim was right and it will 6tand. There was nothing in t te last election to discourage democrats. Under all the peculiar circumstances of the last campaign, 1 think we have most excellent reason to be satisfied with t he result. I f

the silver republicans and populists have been misled as to the attitude of the democratic party on the silver issue, it could only have oeen through the many false statements made by the gold press of the country. 'And while 1 am on the subject of misleading statements in gold standard papers, let me say that since the Ways and Means Committee was appointed by Senator James K.Jones and our work was commenced, with Mr. W. 11. Harvey at i!s head a great many falsehoods have been telegraphed over the country and published in numerous papers about members of the committee and about the purpose and work of the committee. It has been stated, and the statement has been persistently reiterat ed in the face of positive denial, that I had entered into a plot with Richard Croker, of the New York Tammany society, and others to have the next national Democratic convention re pudiate the Chicago platform and do divers an 1 other dreadful things. Now, as a matter of fact, I never saw Mr Croker in my life and have never had any communication with him. If I should ever have any occasion to see Mr. Crocker, in fact, any other man I shall undoubtedly sae him; but so far as I know 1 shall have no occasion to see him and I am now on my way east. All these stories are unmixed rot concocted only to sreate dissensions amongst the rank and file of our party. Other stories of plots and conspiracies have been sent out about other members of the committee as baseless and false as those told of me. For instance, it is said th3t Mr. Harvey, the general manager of the Ways and Means committee, is personally appropriating a certain percent of the money subscribed in response to our appeal. As a matter of fact he has not received one cent, but has given his services free. No percent of the proceeds would be accepted by him nor would we insult him by offering him such an arrangement. So tar even the necessary expenses of our work have been borne out of funds raised separately for that purpose. Ghetts. At the C. hu rclie. UNITED URETHREN. The Christmas entertainment Saturday night was well attended and an excellent program was well rendered. It was entitled, "Father Time, Santa Claus and Uncle Sam." Father Time was impersonated by J. V. Vangilder, Santa Claus by Hick Shakes and Uncle Sam by Dorenzo VangilJer. The four seasons spring, summer, autumn and winter were presented in recitations by four girls, dressed in white, after which Father Time, old and feeble and with trembling voice, spoke of the pa-sing years. Santa Claus, with jingling bells, addressed the children, while Uncle Sam presented his newly acquired children Miuila, Cuba and Porto Rico as those who needed the gospel and the joys of Christmas time as much as we. The music was appropriate and well rendered, and the treat for the children consisted of a hundred pounds of choice candy, all of which was used in the distribution. On Sunday the sermon in the morning was based on 1 l'eter, 2:7 "To you therefore which believe he is precious" and was entitled, "The Freciousness of Christ to the Reliever." The evening theme bad for a text Luke 2:7-14. "The Rirth of Christ and Song ot Angels" was the thought pre sented. The i'oung People's service had "Christmas" for a subject, and a feature of the meeting was a production of song and prose rendered by Miss Mattie Rust. The Sunday-school reviewed the lessons for the quarter. The annual reorganization of the school occurs next Sunday. M. E. CIIUKC1I. Saturday night the church was crowded, quite a number being obliged to remain standing during the rendition of a beautiful cantata, entitled, "Santa Claus' Reception." The auditorium was tastefully decorated in white and evergreen. The exercises were full of energy, well committed and sung so as to be understood by the audience. Santa Claus has a clear, good voice and executed his part with entire satisfaction. Three hundred and twenty boxes of candy were distributed at the close. J. W. Wiltfong, the superintendent, was taken completely by surpribe when the pastor, in behalf of the entire school, presented him a beautiful, morocco bound church hymnal, and from one of the elapses a volume of illustra tive notes on the Sunday-school lessons for next year. The services Sunday were not, largely attended on account of so many family reunions and other gatherings that either took people away from the city or required their staying at home. The morning service had a gloria and two appropriate solos in addition

to the congregational hymns and a Christmas anthem by the choir. ST. PAUL'S REFORMED MI IM H. St. Paul's Reformed Church, Dec. 25, 18'JS The Sunday-school at H:.'iO a. m. was well attended. The text for the Christmas sermon was Isa. 1): 5, "For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his s'mulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, the mighty God, the everlasting Father, the Prince of Peac-." In the discourse the following points were emphasized: His wonderful par?ntnge; He was a prince in a borrowed manger; He was not looked for but neglecttd of men; the angels heralded him into the world; He was star announced; strangeness of the shepherds being the first to visit him; and finding the Lamb of God who taketh away the sins of tiie world; a prince, heir of all things, who became poor that we might become rich; He was love sent ; wonderful as a teacher in his methods, confounding the wise by employing common sene in conveying his thoughts; also in his helpers using ordinary men; wonderful in sympathy, ministering to the poor and needy; wonderful in reproducing his life in other lives as evidenced i . the apostles and others with whom he came in contact; wonderful in his death and resuirection. This wonderful Savior is recommended to your heart, life and affections, assuring blessedness for time and eternity. The C. K. was well attended, the leader being Ora Vinall. Topic,"Truths taught by Christmas."

ST. THOMAS CHURCH. The Christmas tree festival in the church, at 4:30 p. m. Saturday, was a happy time for the little and larger children and for all attending. The tree was very beautiful and well loaded for about 100 folks. Resides the teachers, Master Donald P. Drummond and Harold J. Soice deserve special mention for its preparation and care. The services on Christmas day were unusually delightful. Christmas dinners doubtless diverted the mortal attention of some in the morning, but the spiritual feast was enjoyed by many who hope to be immortal. The vespers at 4:30 p. m. were made very notable in the annals of Plymouth by the singing of the Mozart Musical club to the delight of a congregation which crowded the house to overllowing into the chancel and vestry room. Jan. 1, 18W, New Year's day. is also Sunday by coincidence. The rector is glad to announce that the Mozart Musical club is kindly disposed to sing New Year day vespers in the church at 4:30 p. m. Cordial invitation is given to all to attend and hear beautiful In mts. ST. MICHAELS. The Catholic services Sunday were held according to the following program: High Mass, 5 a. m.; low mass, 8:30 a. m ; high mass, 10 a. m. Sermon by Kev.
