From Extreme Nervousness.
1131
TIIAT no one remedy can contain" the elements necessary to cure all diseas
es, is a fact veil known to everyone. Dr. Miles' System of Restorative Remedies
consists of seven distinctively different
preparations, each for its own purpose. Mrs. L. C. Bramley, 37 Ilenry St., St. Catherines, Ontario, writes: "For years I suffered from extreme nervousness and annoying constipation, developing into palpitation and weakness of the heart. I was unable to sleep, suffered much from headache, pain in my left side, palpitation and a constant feeling of weakness and prostration. I began using Dr. Miles Nervine, Ileart Cure and Nerve and Liver Tills and the Anti-Pain Pills to relieve sudden paroxysms of pain and headache. I soon felt much improved and the pains and aches and weariness left me. I then took Dr. Miles' Restorative Tonic and am now restorea to my former
good health." 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. Address,

Entered at the post office at Plymouth, Indiana as matter of the second class. Friday, February 24. 1809.
President Fauere of France is dead. Under present conditions it would not be surprising if some pretender undertakes to re-establish a monarchial government.
A soldier boy writing from Manila states that all the girls over there twelve yeais of age want to get married to an American. Here is a chance for the boys on this side who have hesitated to get married on account of the expense of keeping a woman in clothes.
The proprietor of the News says he subscribed to the guarantee fund for the purpose of making safe the business men who had assured the Brethren committee. Well, that is nothing to boast about, but the publisher of the Independent subscribed to the same fund and an equal amount with thi other business men, but this guarantee fund when apportioned among the large number of subscribers fixed each man's subscription so low, that we think the man who boasts of it is a little daffy.
The Indianapolis papers say they are not interested in the passage of the county and township "reform" bills only to give the people of the state better county and township government. They further declare there is nothing in the bills that will take the printing or the furnishing of supplies away from local institutions. Is that so? Then why are not the bills put in plain language to this effect? Why are they so constructed that the small local dealers and tax payers are put in competition with wholesale establishments and non-tax payers? South lknd Tribune.
An anti-railroad pass bill has been adopted by the Wisconsin legislature and the following pathetic eulogy over the newly made grave of a once powerful factor of legislation was delivered by a mourning representative. " And, senators,when we shall be as the pass is now, 'cold, dead and dumb to all the world contains,' may the president of the celestial railway send to each of us a pass with no hard conditions indorsed upon its back, a pass that will carry us free of charge through the dark night to the illuminated termi
nus of his line from whence return
transportation is never issued and I
trust, senator, never desired."
All kinds of people break into
state legislatures, but when it comes to real freaks Wisconsin can produce a statesman that fullv fills the
bill. This genius has introduced a bill into the Wisconsin lesislature
which provides for a tax of four per
cent on the earnings of all newspa
pers in the state, and an additional tax of ten percent on all money
paid to newspapers bv candidates
for space. Wisconsin's freak is en
titled to first honors.
REFORM IS KOITEÜ. The republicans of the house held another caucus yesterday afternoon
to discuss the reform bills. Several members revolted and refused to go into the caucus. About a dozen did
not attend, and it was decided to postpone action in the house on the
reform bills until next week. A committee of thirteen members, one
from each congressional district, was
appointed to agree on the amendments that will be submitted to the
caucus next week, it is nopecl in this way to agree on a bill that will attract enough support to hold nearly all the republicans in line, but the
indications now are that the bills
will not be made republican caucus measures.
The democratic members have
not caucused and two or three sub
stitute bids will be offered from the
democratic side. Lerf, the populist,
will offer a referendum amendment to both bills, allowing the people of the township or county to decide by an election whether they will adopt the new plan.
Mr. Eichhorn, a democrat, will
probably introduce a substitute creating a non-partisan board of four,
appointed by the circuit court, to sit
with the commissioners to supervise
all purchases of township and coun-
y supplies and fix the township and
county tax levies. A flood of peti-
ions and letters is now pouring in
asrainst the reform bills.
Republican State Chairman Hern-
ly was in yesterday's caucus, and admits that the revolt is not encouraging for the passage of the bills.

Married. At the residence of Mrs. W. L. Bur-
kett, South 6treet of this city, at higb
noon bunday, air. t-narles hlmer Glass to Miss Alma C. Lawrence,
daughter of Mrs. W. L. Burkett by a
former marriage. Kev. L. S. Smith
pastor of the M. E. church was the otliciating minister. Mies Mabel
Duddleson played the wedding march.
The ceremony was witnessed by over
sixty persons, who extended congratu-
ations to the happy young couple
Nearly every person present contributed to the permanent joy of the bride ind
croom by gifts of both useful and orna
mental articles of table or house fur
nishing, and an absent uncle sent them a start in the line of rearing poultry, a
rio of fine Partridge Cochin chickens.
Ad abundant dinner was served.
Neither bride nor groom has yet
reached 21 years, but they have well matured plans for housekeeping and
expect near the firet of March to be at home to their friends on the farm.
Possessed of health, youth, and com
mon sense views of life, having friends, native independence and ambition, we predict for them a happy and useful
career.
ItllC Mortgage Heeortied. County Recorder Walker returned rom Indianapolis Friday and
brought with him a mortgage to record in this county which is oneof the largest
ever filed at the court house. It was
given by the Central Union Telephone company in favor of the "Old Colony Trust Co.," of BoBton, Massachusetts,
and will effect about 72 counties in the
state. The face of the mortgage is gf,-
000,000. It is stamped with sixty fifty
dollar war revenue stamps or a total
revenue of S3.000. The recording fee amounts to 810 for each county or S720
or all the counties effected.
Oyster High a ItlnU. No one ever imagined oysters could
lly, but the price hastakn winge, owing
o the recent freezing up along the
eastern coast. Standards now sell for 40 cents, and Eelecta for 50 cents in the'
ocal market. That is when they can
be had at all. (Joehen Times.

J. W. Thomas, Plymouth, Ind. Dear Father and Mother: This is Christmas
night and a friend of ours, Tom Smart
was just here, and he is going out in a few days and 6aid he would call again and get any letters we wanted to send
out. I have sent a number by private
carriers this winter Dut am not sure
that any of that mail will ever reach it?
destination which is mailed in Canadian
cilice here; tt.at is out of tte question
to calculate. From Dawson to Skag
nay is a long way (or no way at all) and
beset with insurmountable obstacles of
which the outside world can have but a
faint conception. A dog team of ten
good animals can haul C00 pounds of mail with two men, will require an ad
ditional amount of 1,000 pounds in out
fit, provisions, dog feed, blankets, robes
and tackle for camping.
Well, this is Christmas and Sunday
and of course we did not work today.
Dick laid off yesterday to cook for
Christmas, and a royal dinner we had today. We had moose steak and I don't
believe any one ever ale tenderer or
sweeter meat, plum dull, mince and
pun pkin pies, doughnuts, custarl pud
ding, bread and butter. I never enjoy
ed or relished e better dinner. We sent every body in the little settlement ner
by a taste of plum duff. Uncle Dick
knows how to cook a good Christinas
dinner in the Klondike.
Well, I never saw more delightful
weather. It has been about zero or a little below nearly all this mouth. One
does not feel the cold where it is 60
steady. We did have a very cold snap in November and j erhaps will have an
other one before spring, but they do not
last long. The climate and cold weather
seems to agree with me; I am getting
fat.
1 am sMU working for wages by the
hour. If nothing happens till spring I will have enough to pay my experience debt and be e.ven with this country, which is much better than thousands have done. I am well satisfied that
this is a good countiy for a. young man
if he will stick to it and attend to his business, save bis earnings as he ought
to, and would have to do anywhere else
if he would succeed at any ether avo
cation. I tell you they have not found
half the gold yet that there is right here in this district. I would like to
stay in here four or five years if I had
no one at home that I would like to see,
but for tte present will not say when 1 will come out, it will depend entirely on conditions and things. 1 would not
advise anv one to come here, as I have
observed that not one out of twenty
who are now here are fit for this coun
try either in habits or constitution. The
roads to the Klondike are long and hard
to travel, and once here the work has just begun. The prospects for a for
tune are very uncertain and disappoint
ing. Yet I am convinced that with
ordinary luck I could make a good
stake in a few years, hence the need for an acquaintance with the country which requires time and patience. If the thousands who are here and are doing
nothing will get out in the spring, then there will be some chance for those that stay. The fact is that the country is over run with people. I think we were lucky to get work as we can make a little grubstake and prospect next summer. There have been no big finds worthy of mention since I landed here last July. I have not heard any thing from Jim or Skaguay since I left. I left my interest there all in Jim's care. I had great expectations in Skaguay when I left, but don't know if those lets are worn one dollar and don't care much, as I did not have much money in them anyhow. The last letter I got from you was written last summer, you was telling me about commencemeLt. The days ara very short now; only about live hours daylight. We haven't
seen the eun for a long time.
Well I would like to tell you maDy
things about how we werk and the sights we see, but paper is a poor medi
urn, it takes too long to tell it all, be
sides I don't think of everything 1 want to say in a hurry. When I get home
will tell it all My hopes are that you are all well and are enjoying a merry
Christmas and a happy New Year.
From your loving son, Frank.

death occuring on Wednesday at his
home in Indianapolis. All of the old otiicers of the association were re-elected but Pottage, and he was so chagrin
