Using Love Powders.
We taki' the following from
the Smithfield Herald:
: Superstition is fast giving
I away before the light of civiliza
tion. The writer remembers
when a noted conjure doctor
hived and flourished in this
I country. People came Jifty and
1 sevcntv-five miles to see him.
lie made a fortune in this way.
A person having decided he was
••tricked'* or conjured or had a
••spell pui on him," the next
thing was a trip to see the con
jure doctor, lie was expected
to take tlii> '"spell" oil' and in
most cases it was to be put
back on the person who started
it.
('sing love powders is anoth
er idea that prevailed and does
to some extent yet. If a girl
was infatuated or led astray by
>ome worthless fellow, or if a
girl was married to some fellow
far below her station she was ex
cused by herself, or her parents!
or her friends, and sometimes
by all of them on the ground
that the fellow used love pow
ders.
Below we give a letter receiv
ed by one of our druggists
which shows that this idea still
prevails:
June 10th, 1901.
Dear Sir:

lines to let you know that I
want some of your love pow
ders as I am an alright boy you
may trust me I will be under
the bond yes I'm alright.

If not why not I'm alright.

George Schaub, a well known
German citizen of New Lebanon,
Ohio, is a constant reader of the
Dayton Volkzeitung. He knows
that this paper aims to adver
tise only the best in its columns,
I and when he saw Chamber
lain's Pain Balm advertised
therein for lame back, he did
not hesitate in buying a bottle
of it for his wife, who for eight
weeks had suffered with the
most terrible pain in her back
! and could get no relief. He
says: "After using the Pain
j Balm for a few days my wife
! said to me, 'I feel as though
\ born anew,' and before using
i the entire contents of the bottle
the unbearable pains had en
tirely vanished and she could
again take up her household
duties." He is very thankful
and hopes that all suffering
likewise will hear of her won
derful recovery. This valuable

"Not much, I won't. There'
won't be anything to leave."
"Great jupiter, you don't
mean to tell me that you havej

It is almost certain to be needed
before the summer is over, and
if procured now may save you
a trip to town in the night or in

everywhere admitted to be the
most successful medicine in use
for bowel complaints, both for
children and adults. No family
can afford to be without it. For

j
iOR WAS IT PKKHAI'S ANOTHKI;' ;
Quite sin animated discussion
lias recently sprung up in liter
ary circles concerning l the ::u
-thorship of tin l sentiment which
President Lincoln used in hi
f.imous Gettysburg address,
when he said: "Government, of
the people, for the people and
hy the people shall not
from the earth." Thomas
Cooper, Daniel Webster and
Theodore Parker are each cred
ited with having used language
to this effect on public occa
sions. Some one writing in
The Boston Transcript throws
Sight upon the subject, as fol
lows :
"To the Editor of The Tran
script— At the meeting yester
day of the Massachusetts His
torical Society Dr. S. A. Green
read a paper on Lincoln's Get
tysburg oration. Of course he
quoted the now famous words
—'the government of the peo
ple, for the people and by the
people, shall not peiish from the
earth.' He said that similar
definitions of democracy had
been uttered by Thomas Cooper
in 1794, by Webster in 1830
and Theodore Parker in 1850 ;
but he thought it utterly un
likely that Mr. Lincoln had ev
er read or heard of either of
these three similar expres
sions." The simple facts are
just these :
"Mr. Lincoln was a great ad- j
nnrer of Theodore Parker and |
read his books, lectures and ser-;
moiis constantly, so this formu
la of words was probably very
familiar to him, for these exact i
words were coined by Mr. Par-:
ker.
"Many years ago the origin
of these words was questioned |
and discussed by the press, !
which prompted Charles \V.
Slack, owner of the Boston
Commonwealth, who was a close
friend and ardent supporter of!
Mr. Parker, to ascertain and:
print the facts. They can bej
found in the files of The Com
monwealth. As a great scholar
Mr Parker well knew that this j
thought as to the true definition 1
of the word democracy had been
uttered many times, but the j
wording, he thought, might be I
improved; so it dwelt in his
mind for a long time—till the;
proper form of words suddenly
dawned on him, when he went
to a friend and cried out: 'Eu
reka, Eureka, Eureka!' and
read to him these words : "The
true definition of democracy is,
'a government of the people,
for the people, by the people.'"
These words satisfied him and
all the world since, Mr. Lincoln
adopted them and sent them
around the world immortalized, i
Mr. Parker's gift of terse, com
pact expression, coupled with
his great moral earnestness, his
high principles, his great moral
courage, enabled him to fill Mu-j
sic hail with listeners every!
Sunday so long as he lived. His j
fame was so great that it used j
to be said that most of the busi
ness men who came to Boston
on business from all over the
country managed, when they
could, to be here on Sunday to
listen to Theodore Parker.
"I think many may like to
know this bit of history of the
famous words."—The Sunny
