That's the difference between talking and act¬ ing- _ The Board of Construction of the Navy Department evidently takes no stock in the fairy tales of Mr McKinley and other republi¬ cans, concerning the future-reduc¬ tion of the government's income by the repeal of the war taxes, as it is going ahead upon a project for building additions to our Navy that will make it imperialistic iii size, as well as in the class of yes- 6els. This project involves the construction of no les3 than 40 warships. How much all this is to cost has not boen given out, and, of course, will not be until after election, but that it be enormous, is centain. and that if carried out, it will require an increase in taxa¬ tion, instead of the reduction promised, is equally certaiu.

A 9tartliug incident, is narrated by John Oliver of Philadelphia, as follows: ?'I wa9 in an a»vful condition. jVly skin was almost yellow, eyes sunken, tongue coated, pain continually in back and sides, no appetite, growing weaker day by day. Three physicians had given me np. Then 1 was advised to use Electric Bitters; to my great joy, the tirst bottle made a decided improvement. I con¬ tinued their use for three weeks, and am now a well man. I know they robbed the grave of another victim." No one should iail to try them. Ouly 50c, guar¬ anteed, at S. J. Carson drug store.

J(- More On The Nineteenth Century [Continued from Issue of Oct. 19.] Auother of the achievements of the nineteenth century has been the proclamation of liberty, and the rights of man. Whereas in other centuries despots have held sway and trampeled on the rights of the masses, the said century has happily become known as the era of freedom. The establisment of the United States as a republic with her mar¬ velous growth in said century to¬ gether with the rise of republics in South America, Central America, Mexico, and Europe, has establish¬ ed beyond reversal, the doctrine of bnniait freedom. Another happy fruitage of the century has been the granting of constitutional rights to the people, bv trie leading monarchies, of the Old World. But the nicest striking augury of good in this direction in the century has been tne abolition of African slavery. The dawn of the nineteenth century found the Coarse of slay erv in almost every land. It was not only in old'Eng- land but it was in New England as well. According to old statistics, in the year 1800 there were eight slaves in the state of Newhamp- shire, 381 in Rhode Island, 1000 in Connecticut and over 20,000 in New York. The transition from these conditions is gratifying. The Century has closed with slavery abolished in every civilized land. And with the leading Nations l>a nded ta pether, to exterminate it in all lands. This emancipation of millions, who could not choose or act for themselves, is one of the crowning achievements of the Cen¬ tury and constitutes an open door for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Turning to the progress made in mechancial and industrial devices we are confronted by an almost boundless field of research and inquiry. In the field of artificial lighting it is a surprising f-vct that no progress worthy of mention was mahe in thousands of years. The home on which said century dawned had no other light than the fire on the hearth, a tallow Candle or possibly a whale oil lamp, those crude means of illumination which had been in use in Babylon and Egypt three thousand years ago, still remained the only light for the homes ani the cities at the dawn of the aforesaid century. The change which a hundred yeera has wrought is amazing. The discoy- ery of petroleum, and gas. and their uses for illumination, togeth¬ er with the more recent applica¬ tion of electricity marks, a revolu¬ tion in this department sufficient alone to make a century famous. The present illumination of the homes, business placet, churches, public buildings and cities of our country, contrasted with the tallow candle of a century ago shows a progress a thousand times greater than the combined progress of all other centuries since the creation. A similar advancement and one wholly developed in the aforesaid century is the improved means for and the rapidity of modern travel¬ ing. At the dawn of the century people could not travel faster than li could that noble animal, the horse. I No progress had been madein thous-11 ands of years and the hone still j remained the swiftest ami principle means of travel and communica¬ tion. In the year 1800 there was not a mile of steam railway in the World, and it was not until the middle of the Century's fourth de¬ cade that 1.000 miles could be reckoned in this country. The century closed with more than 237,000 miles of track in the Unit¬ ed States, or more than enough to build nine lines of railway around the entire Globe, The transition from the days of the horseback rider and the st;ige coach to this present gigantic ex¬ tention of the railway system is a revolution iu conveyance sufficient¬ ly great, the way the world has been moving, to constitute the record of 4 000 years but instead it is the record of the last 70 years of the writer's life. It is a marvelous lesson of rapid and world wide de¬ velopment, and yet accomplished within a single life time. The nineteenth Century has closed the record of thousands 'of years when the horse was the swiftest means of conveyance the tallow candle, tile means of artificial light, and the supple flail, the instrument for threshing grain. With the development of facili¬ ties for increased travel,the century has also, solved the problem of the instaneous conveyance of intelli¬ gence, which has brought the ends of the World in close proximity to each other. When it is remem¬ bered that in 184'") there was not a mile of telegraph wire in the World, it seems strange that 00 years should have made possible such a revolution. The Century closed with a vast telegraphic sys¬ tem covering the World with net ivoik of wire 5,000.000 miles in ex¬ tent and more than the half of which is in theUnitedStat.es. W. S. T. The best method of cleansing the iver is the use of the famous little >ills known as De Witt's Little Ear- y Risers. Easy to take. Never jripe. S. J. Carson. 1 Bismark's Iron Nerve.

When I selected tiiese goods I was careful to get tiie styles that are wotn this season. As to prices I think it will pay you to examine my stock before you make your purchase. LEFT-OVEIt BOOTS. Boots carried over from last sea¬ son have the advantage over those purchased this year, because they jame under old time prices. If you will let me fit you in a pair you get that advantage. SIIOE TALK. All I ask is that my larg**and varried assortment of ladies1 and o-entlemen's shoes, now on the dielyes, receive a careful inspection jt your hands. I have no fear that 1 will be unable to please you, for ill this department it is a rare thing that I ever miss a sale, because of the superior line I handle. The trade demanded, first, a large stock to select from, second, a varied as¬ sortment and third, the very latest iud most proper thing in high j-rade shoes. 1 haye combined the ;hree. AS I WAS GOING TO REMAR5, D this matter of clothing.suits for boys and men.had yon ever thought there is a vast difference n the way they are cut and made? Some suits fit in a way; you get four size in inches, that's about all. rhey havn't . the proper set and lon't hang right. They are cheap- y made. In buying your winter mit have au eye to this. The firm rom which I buy my clothing has t wide reputation as to the perfect itting of its garments. They are )eaiitifully ruade, set well and hang iroperly from the first. I simple isk that you look through my tock. No "away back" numbers o go over. SPEAKING OF MY STOCK, n a general way, I would say that ny store is now well filled with easonable goods, and I again hope ur a share of your patronage. As as been my custom I shall cou- inue to handle all marketable pro- uce. Respectfully, John A, Whitelaw.

The Board of Construction ofthe Navy Department evidentlytakes no stock in the fairy tales ofMr McKinley and other republi¬cans, concerning the future-reduc¬tion of the government's income

by the repeal of the war taxes, as

it is going ahead upon a projectfor building additions to our Navythat will make it imperialistic iiisize, as well as in the class of yes-6els. This project involves theconstruction of no les3 than 40warships. How much all this is tocost has not boen given out, and,of course, will not be until afterelection, but that it be enormous,is centain. and that if carried out,it will require an increase in taxa¬tion, instead of the reductionpromised, is equally certaiu.

tinued their use for three weeks, and amnow a well man. I know they robbedthe grave of another victim." No oneshould iail to try them. Ouly 50c, guar¬anteed, at S. J. Carson drug store.

More On The Nineteenth Century[Continued from Issue of Oct. 19.]Auother of the achievements of

the nineteenth century has beenthe proclamation of liberty, andthe rights of man. Whereas inother centuries despots have heldsway and trampeled on the rightsof the masses, the said century hashappily become known as the era

of freedom.The establisment of the United

States as a republic with her mar¬

velous growth in said century to¬gether with the rise of republics inSouth America, Central America,Mexico, and Europe, has establish¬ed beyond reversal, the doctrine ofbnniait freedom.Another happy fruitage of the

century has been the granting ofconstitutional rights to the people,bv trie leading monarchies, of theOld World. But the nicest strikingaugury of good in this direction inthe century has been tne abolitionof African slavery. The dawn ofthe nineteenth century found theCoarse of slayerv in almost everyland. It was not only in old'Eng-land but it was in New England as

well. According to old statistics,in the year 1800 there were eightslaves in the state of Newhamp-shire, 381 in Rhode Island, 1000 inConnecticut and over 20,000 inNew York. The transition fromthese conditions is gratifying. TheCentury has closed with slaveryabolished in every civilized land.And with the leading Nationsl>a nded ta pether, to exterminate itin all lands. This emancipation ofmillions, who could not choose or

act for themselves, is one of thecrowning achievements of the Cen¬tury and constitutes an open doorfor the Gospel of Jesus Christ.Turning to the progress made in

mechancial and industrial deviceswe are confronted by an almostboundless field of research andinquiry. In the field of artificiallighting it is a surprising f-vct thatno progress worthy of mentionwas mahe in thousands of years.The home on which said centurydawned had no other light thanthe fire on the hearth, a tallowCandle or possibly a whale oil lamp,those crude means of illuminationwhich had been in use in Babylonand Egypt three thousand years

ago, still remained the only lightfor the homes ani the cities at thedawn of the aforesaid century. Thechange which a hundred yeera haswrought is amazing. The discoy-ery of petroleum, and gas. andtheir uses for illumination, togeth¬er with the more recent applica¬tion of electricity marks, a revolu¬tion in this department sufficientalone to make a century famous.The present illumination of thehomes, business placet, churches,public buildings and cities of ourcountry, contrasted with the tallowcandle of a century ago shows a

progress a thousand times greaterthan the combined progress of allother centuries since the creation.A similar advancement and one

wholly developed in the aforesaidcentury is the improved means forand the rapidity of modern travel¬ing. At the dawn of the centurypeople could not travel faster than licould that noble animal, the horse. INo progress had been madein thous-11ands of years and the hone still jremained the swiftest ami principlemeans of travel and communica¬tion. In the year 1800 there was

not a mile of steam railway in theWorld, and it was not until themiddle of the Century's fourth de¬cade that 1.000 miles could bereckoned in this country. Thecentury closed with more than237,000 miles of track in the Unit¬ed States, or more than enough tobuild nine lines of railway aroundthe entire Globe,The transition from the days of

the horseback rider and the st;igecoach to this present gigantic ex¬

tention of the railway system is a

revolution iu conveyance sufficient¬ly great, the way the world hasbeen moving, to constitute therecord of 4 000 years but instead itis the record of the last 70 years ofthe writer's life. It is a marvelouslesson of rapid and world wide de¬velopment, and yet accomplishedwithin a single life time. Thenineteenth Century has closed therecord of thousands 'of years whenthe horse was the swiftest meansof conveyance the tallow candle,tile means of artificial light, andthe supple flail, the instrument forthreshing grain.

With the development of facili¬ties for increased travel,the centuryhas also, solved the problem of theinstaneous conveyance of intelli¬gence, which has brought theends of the World in close proximityto each other. When it is remem¬bered that in 184'") there was not a

mile of telegraph wire in theWorld, it seems strange that 00years should have made possiblesuch a revolution. The Centuryclosed with a vast telegraphic sys¬tem covering the World with netivoik of wire 5,000.000 miles in ex¬

tent and more than the half ofwhich is in theUnitedStat.es.
