"The Simple Life" is now selling

A good (teal or sorrow is arising

from the fact that every man in the different legislatures cannot be

speaker.

King Peter of Servia has dropped down from Rojal to plain life. He should go one step further, and try' the "Simple Life." o The comptroller of the currency says there is a great demand for $5 notes. Yes, we can use a few, though we much prefer the twenties. Wa 1 1 street is getting hunry for

Prophet Dowie still insists that he is different from other men. We hardly think he is as proud of ihe difference as "the other men" are.

. Mrs. Chadwick now realizes that she has made a mistake somewhere. Yes, she should have gone over into New Jersey and had herself incorporated. ;

St. Louis City council is considering a bill for keeping suspicious characters away from the city. They evidently believe , in protecting "home industries."

After the 4th of next March, Senator Allison will have served for a longer continuous time than any man now in, the Senate. The Senior Senator from Iowa, will, by 190S, be too big for anything short of the White House.

President Roosevelt is busy looking for a new Commissioner of Pensions. It is understood that no application will be considered for the position until the applicant signs a, pledge not to write any poetry during his term of office. The December number of the

American High School, published by Miss Charlotte Myrick, late of the Palladium's staff, is out, and it is an excellent one. Miss Myrick 's taste is shown in the general arrangement of the work. If the wealthy people of this city desire to devote a few dollars of their vast resources to making children happy let them contribute to the Palladium fund. Some of the letters received almost make one's heart ache. "Please remember us for we haven't any papa to get us any toys" says one of them and another from a little girl expresses a wish for a gift for her little brother who can neither walk nor see. What better use of money than to be Santa Claus and spend some of it to make these dear little ones happy at least one dav in the long, drcarv year? Christmas shoppers need look no further than the columns of the Palladium to find what they desire for gifts on that great, holiday Christmas. Never in the history of. the city have merchants used so much space in the Palladium as this year. They are the live, energetic, pushing merchants who lead and the selections they offer have never been excelled. These advertisers have stores filled with goods of all classes and

. Life a B There are times when life seems a burden when you are tired, worn-out, have dull pains in the head and a continual feeling of uneasiness. You have no appetite, and your digestion is poor; 3our sleep broken, and you get no rest. Little annoyances seem great mountains of trouble, and you are blue, melancholy and given over to gloomy forebodings. This means low vitality- exhausted brain nerves. For this condition Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine is a specific : it is a food for the nerves. It builds up the nervous system, and restores lost energy. vTry it to-day and see if your secp is not sound and refreshing, and the -morrow brighter and more hopeful. I am glad to announce that I have recovered ray health, as far as my advanced age will permit, as I am 82 years old. My case was very bad; my nerves were all shattered. I suffered much pain and coldness: was so weak and felt so sad and lonely and heart-broken.
