The most interesting aspect of the subject of producing su premely great men is what may be called the superstitious as jpectofit. There is no other subject that we know as little about, few others about which so much has been written. The weariest weight of dull nonsense on the book-shelves of the world are the endless volumes whose authors pretend to give a logic al account of supremely great men. Why Shakespeare, was Shakespeare, why he came when he did, why he did, what he did—the "influences" that shaped his mind and the whole multitudinous folderol have wasted much time of industri ous men and simple readers. And in one sense it is perfect ly true that a democracy cannot aft'oid to be straining after the production of great men, even if it knew how to produce them : for the business of a democracy is to give every man a chance to develop what small or great measure of power is in him. The great men will take care of themselves when they come. How to entice nature to bring them forth—that is so far be yond us that Mr. Schurman's reproach seems academic and fantastical; and, if 4 'all our .higher institutions -of learning o o DUNN FOUNDRY, MACHINE AND METAL WORKS. 10000 eet f floor space c veied with brand new ard ponderous machinery and fixtures for all kinds of machinejand metal working.J JHLQffln FARQUHAR'S CENTER CRANK AJAX.

Rosa Becker began su.it against Caspar Becker and his wife, Amelia Becker, in Com mon Pleas Court No. 5, yester day, to recover $50,000 dam ages for the alleged alienation of the affections of the plain tiff's husband, John Bernard Becker, who is a son of the de fendants. Tlie plaintiff says she was married to the defend ant's son on September 25, 1900, and before a week had elapsed her husband's parents induced him by persuasions and coercions and scandalous stories to desert her, and that they transported him to parts unknown, alienated his affec tions and helped to conceal his whereabouts. Mrs. Becker is now the moth er of an infant child, on whose behalf, as well as her own, she brings the suit, alleging that the defendants have deprived her and the child of the natural love, society support and pro tection of a husband and father, and have subjected her and hex child to much suffering, humil iation and hardships.—Phila delphia fiecesd.

Perhaps we have laid down some urgent work to meet an engagement, only to find that the one whom we are to meet has failed to come or to come at the appoint ed time. Waiting for meals, delayed trains and cars, for at tention and change in stores — these and many other time wasting annoyances belong to busy town life rather thau to the rural life, which we are taught in books to associate with carelessness in regard to the value of time. Annoying as these intervals of idleness must often be, it is a pity to make them worse by impa tience. Accepted as inevitable, they may often be of use in se curing us brief intervals of re freshing quiet in the strain of a busy day. Sometimes they are of use in observation, study or meditation. At the worst they ought to confirm us in the pur pose never to levy upon others an unwilling tax of time by our careless or self-indulgeut tardi ness.—Congregation alist.

Kelly relates an exper ience similar to that which has happened in almost every neigh borhood in the United States and has been told and re-told by thousands of others. He says : "Last summer I had an at tack of dysintery and purchased a bottle of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, which I used according to di rections and with entirely satis factory results. The trouble was controlled much quicker than former attacks when I us ed other remedies." Mr. Kelly is a well known citizen of Hen derson, N. €.

His skin slowly changed color, also his eyes, and he suffered terribly. His malady was yel low jaundice. He was treated by the best doctors, but without benefit. Then he was advised to try Electric Bitters, the won derful Stomach and Liver reme dy, and he writes : "After tak ing two bottles I was wholly cured." A trial proves its matchless merit for all stomach, liver and kidney troubles. On ly 25c, sold by Wilson, Drug gist.
