He says: "Doctors got badly mixed np over me; one snid heart disease; two called it kidney tfou hle; the fourth blood .poison, a n ii the fifth.itomach and liver trouble, but none of tbtm helped me; to my wife advised trying Electric Bitters, which are lestoring me to perfect health. 0 ie bottle did m more good than all the five doctors pre. scribed."

By rapid progress the state is nearmg the total pt'Ohi- bitjon mark, and thatby the only truly democratic method, local option.

The Oklahoma Ccnntlution, The constitution of the la test addition to our 1st of States Oklahoma is a remarkable doc ument, having no parallel am-'so ong the States ol 1 he Union. The convention that framed it was in continuous session for almost six months; so it is not hastily prepared but every item was carefully and enrne-tly consider !ed. Polygamy is forever prohib- 4 10. ited, Separate schools are provt 530. jded for negro children, which 3 50. 'shows that there is a large ele- 4 70. jnient ol Southern sentiment in 4 00 j the population. Intoxicating li 1 10. qnors are strictly prohibit"d for 1 10. J21 years. By that t ime it is hop 1 10, led liouor'will not be sold by law in any section of the country,! Imprisonment for debt is pro hibited except jfor non-payment of fines imposed for viola tion of law. In all civil caRes, aud crimi nal cases less than felonious, three fourths of a jury have power to render a verdict. This strikes us as a very sensible pro vision and w ill prevent a stub born and unreasonablejuryman, Irom controlling the situation. The libel law of Oklahoma is rather eurious. If libelous mat ter b" proven true, but if it can be shown that it was written with good motives and for justi fiable ends the party shall be ac quitted. The books, records and files of all corporations shall be subject at all times to the full inquisitorial powers of t he State. The Southern Railroad is w arn ed in time. The right of the St ate to engage in any occupation or business for public purposes is clear! v stated. The courts of Kan sas prevented that State from erecting an oil refinery in compe tition with th" Standard Oil Com pnny. Oklahoma is ready f o r Brother. Rockefeller. But the most interesting feature of t h e constitution is the full sway that is given famous "Initiative and Referendum' which practically robs the Legislature of its rights and refers all questions to the people for ratification or rejec tion. This appears to be a blow at representative government, but it is one of the planks in Mr. Bryan's platform and it will be watched with great interest by the people of the United States. Taken n.!l together, the Oklaho ma constitntionMs a drastic doc ument and contains very start ling propositions. Charity and Children.

The Van Camp Packing Com- )any, of Indianapolis, Indiana, the Manufacturer's Record ; informs us, has given unorder to treble its advertising in 1908 and lias gone forward with a deter mination to do its share of busi ness in the coming year. The let ter it sends -out breathes con fl- deuce, hope and cheer and should be read bv everv man who has baen inclined to look with doubt upon the good times the future holds in 6 tore. Here is the letter full of hope and inspiration: ''The 'big noiso' now in the 'fi nancial situation.' "Folks are going about with a fare as long as theunderta- ker's at a rich man's funeral, say ing 'What do you think about the financial situation?' and ex pecting everybody to weep in sympathhy. "Now. as necessary as the 'fi nancial situation' is to the busi iness system, the business sys tem of the country is strong en ough that if 'businesss' will just Veep its wits it will bring the 'fl: nancial situation' along like a fa ther leads a scared child sooth ing to bed. "New York got scared and lock ed itself in the house and shout ed hysterical alarm from the up stairs windows until the timid were infected with the fright and have run crying to their own shelter. "What's the use? "There's not a manufacturer in the couutry who has exhibit ed any enterprise in getting bus mess that hasn't his orders filled as he should have them at this time of the year.'jThere is no less aisiness in the country than ther e was two weeks ago. Labor is earning'just as much as it did two weeks ago. Good banks are as sound as ever. The business situation whs never so gooa, ana tue onty hard times we need experience are the hard times to fill orders, if everybody will just cheer up and go on with their legitimate busi ness instead of letting themselves becoming scared byfctimid Tom mv's howl of alarm. "Doubtless it is not a tiger but only old pussy suffering from too much canary. "Cheer up I Get busy "Simplicity of plan and prompt ness of action are what the peo pie need nnd will demand," says Secretary Cortelyou, in his annu al report in referring to the need of the enactment by Congress of gislation providing for a more elastic currency.
