The Greatest Medical Discovery of the Age. KENNEDY’S MEDICM DISCOVERY. DONALD KENNEDY, OF ROXBURY, MASS., Has discovered in one of our common pasture weeds a remedy that cures every kind of Humor, from the worst Scrofula down to a common Pimple. He has tried it in over eleven hundred cases, and never failed except in two cases (both thunder humor). He has now in his possession over two hundred certificates of its value, all within twenty miles of Boston. §fnd postal card for book. A benefit is always experienced from the first bottle, and a perfect cure is warranted when the right quantity is taken. When the lungs are affected it causes shooting pains, like needles passing through them; the same with the Liver or Bowels. This is caused by the ducts being stopped, and always disappears in a week after taking it. Read the label. If the stomach is foul or bilious it will cause squeamish feelings at first.

For the Summer Garden. “The annuals undoubtedly produce a stronger effect of color in the garden than their longer-lived relatives, the perennials and the biennials,” writes F. Schuyler Mathews in the Ladies’ Home Journal. "What they do is done Quickly and with astonishingly prolific results. It is also a significant fact that these results are brought about in the most favorable season of the year for flowers—midsummer. "When I choose six annuals- poppies, marigolds, nasturtiums, phlox Drummondii, sweet pease and asters, it must not be inferred that these are exeepj tionally beautiful; the choice really takes into account their prolific bearing qualities. Nearly all of the annuals are charmingly beautiful; but these six are not only so, their beauty is of a kind which seems inexhaustible. With proper treatment they keep on blooming and blooming until the attacks of frost have actually caused their death. Besides all this, the color tones of these half dozen families of flowers are so extraordinary and pronounced that the garden cannot possibly be complete without them. Nasturtiums are exponents of all the variety possible in toned yellow and red; poppies pres nt to us all the light and airy delicacy of color which is conceivable, in addition to ml nml ncnrl<*t ill pvn rrl’ul Ihi<‘h; marigolds hold exclusively to yellow ami its golden tones; phlox Drunimondii reveals infinity in tint and hue, and stops only at yellow and blue; sweet peas are crimson, and pink, and blue-purple to absolute perfection of tone, and asters are strong in purpleblues, purples and red tones in which the presence of yellow is absent—entirely and wholly so.” The Presidential Succession. The Presidential and Vice Presidential offices have never in our history both become vacant during a Presidential term. Several Presidents have died in office —Harrison, Taylor, Lincoln and Garfield, but the Vice President took up the office and survived the term. Vice Presidents Clinton, Gerry, King, Wilson and Hendricks have died in office. John C. Calhoun resigned to become Senator from South Carolina. In ISBG a new statute was passed by Congress changing the succession, and now in the event of the death or removal of lK>th the President and Vice President, the succession devolves upon the members of the cabinet in the following order: Secretary of State, Secretary of the Treasury, Secretary of War, Attorney General, Postmaster General, Secretary of the Navy, Secretary of the Interior. —Ladies’ Home

Journal. A MUSCATINE WOMAN After Great Annoyance from Sciatic Rheumatism, at Last Finds Relief i a.vd To-day Is Enjoying; Full Use of I UcrOnce Aflllcted Llmlm. I rani the Journal, Muscatine, Juiru. On the second floor of one of our neatest busmess buildings, located at No. 125 M est Front street, is the home of Uonsta ble and Mrs. M. <Briggs. and it was visited to-day for the purpose of speaking to Mrs. Briggs on a question of considerable weight to her. The reporter upon calling found Mrs. Briggs a little indisposed (not, however, with her former complaint), but nevertheless in a very congenial mood. Upon inquiry ns to the benefit she derived from the use of Dr. WilJiams' Pink Pills for Pale People, she said’: "About eighteen months since 1 was taken down with sciatic rheumatism in my lower limbs, especially my right leg. and so tierce was the attack that I could not walk at all. After trying various remedies, all without avail, a lady neigh bor of mine, Mrs. John Yoder, who, 1 think, is now living in Eldon, mentioned Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and said she had used them for similar trouble and had found them very beneficial. I purchased a box of pills at P. Nesper A Co.’s drug store, and before 1 had taken all of the first box I began to feel much improved and the pain began to ease. 1 continued to take them, buying a second box. and when I had nearly finished the second box 1 was able to walk about as ably as ever and have not had an attack since. "I heartily endorse Dr. Williams’ Pink 1 Pills for Pale People and feel confident that anyone afflicted as 1 was could be easily restored to their usual health by their use.” Dr. Williams' Pink Pills contain, in a condensed form, all the elements necessary to give new life and richness to the blood and restore shattered nerves. They arc an unfailing specific for such diseases as locomotor ataxia, partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, seiatica. neuralgia, rheumatism. nervous headache, the after effect of la grippe, palpitation of the heart, pale ! and sallow complexions, all forms of weakness either in male or female. Pink Pills are sold by all dealers, or will be sent post paid on receipt of price, 50 cents a box. or six boxes f >r $2.50. by addressing Dr. Williams' Med. Co..Schenectady,N.Y.

ENGLAND IS EXCITED, e 1 — ® EVIDENCE AGAINST JOHANNESBURG CONSPIRATORS. 3 - Rhodes in the Plot—London Times Ad--1 mite Hie Guilty Knowledge—Char1 tered Company Furnished Him Arms uad Money. Approved the Jameson Raid. It would be difficult to overestimate the sensation which has been caused in England by the publication of the substance of the telegrams and documents which have come into th: possession of the authorities of the South African republic. The weight of evidence which they furnish against persons to whom they were addressed and by whom they were signed, of being engaged in a conspiracy to overthrow the Transvaal, is admitted tn be crushing. The opinion of the press very fol CECH. RHODES. generally condemns them. But strenuous efforts are being made to prevent a eweeping condemnation of the authorities of Cape Colony and of the British Chartered South Africa Company, other than Individuals whose names are included kA the documentary evidence. The nondon Times in an editorial on the subject says: "It is impossible to ignore the gravity of the conclusion t< which the published telegrams point. They establisn Ireyond the possibility of a doubt that Hon. Cecil Rhodes, the then premier of Cape Colony; Mr Alfred Beit, a director in the British South Africa Company, and Mr Rutherford Harris, secretary of the British South Africa Company, were privy to the movement against Johannesburg, and that the leaders of the movement counted upon their help and countenance to insure its success. “These telegrams must be taken to prove that Mr. Rhodes approved the revoIlution which was desired in Johannesburg, bi^t nothing in the correspondence goes to show that the actual crossing of the frontier by Dr. Jameson, under the circumstances under which it eventually occurred, was known to Mr. Rhodes or i carried out with his approval.

His conduct awaits ■ the explanation he may have to give at ■ ids trial." A Pretoria dispatch gives the substance | of an interview with President Kruger, j in which lie sa d that he had scratched the death sentence nt once, to show that after the law had l« cn vindicated there was no vind.eiiv- personal feeling on the part of himself or the Government. It is rumored also that President Kruger has received a personal cable dispatch from President Clcvclaud in reference to ’ John Hays Hamilton. Many State Conventions. The Mississippi Democratic convention indorsed free silver and Cleveland. The Georgia Republican convention selected tnree McKinley delegates. The fourth is understoou to favor Reed. They are not instructed. Sound money was indorsed. In .a furor"- of enthusiasm the Vermont Republican convention declared its pref- । erence for McKinley, but refrained from i instructing its delegates. Sound money was indorsed. The McKinley Republicans of Alabama have agreed to co-operate with the Alabama Populists. The failure of the McKinley facti >n to put up a sutind money I ticket is a disappointment to sound money | Republicans. The Michigan Democratic convention । indorsed Cleveland and sound money. The free silver men made a brave fight and were defeated by a small majority. Resolutions were adopted denouncing the A. P. A. The Tennessee Prohibition convention defeated a resolution to indorse the free coinage of silver. The platform declares against the liquor power, for national prohibition organizations, for woman suffrage, more money for schools, a graduated income tax, local option for cities, and a State constitutional convention. The New York Court of Appeals has granted a new trial to Maria Barberi on the ground of exclusion of proper evidence and partiality of Recorder Goff's charge to Iho jury. About a year ago Maria Barberi ... led her lover, a bootblack named Domenico Cataldo, in New York, who had let bet know that she was to be cast off.
