Next thing we know she will be reading Harriet Hubbard Ayer'a "How to Be Beau tiful, Though Old." o Hers is another Chicago profes sor who says Shakespeare and Homer will soon be forgotten be cause of their insignificance. Let's see; wasn't Chicago the town that indorsed Mary MacLane? O i An esteemed contemporary an nounced that a woman was shut up on her husband's complaint. This is the first time that a woman was everfeeown to shut up on her hus band's or any one else's complaint. o It is rather a strange coincidence that on the same date the society folk of Newport opened the festivi ties of the season with a dance the Indians in Montana began their sun dance. The people must have their fetish. o A beferee has just annulled a marriage because both the high con tracting parties were insane when they were wed. There are a good many people who have been crazy to get married, but come to their senses afterward. The Democratic primaries, to be held next Saturday week, is for Democratic voters, and those who desire to support the Democratic ticket. If a Republican votes in these primaries, we should think he would feel honor bound to support the whole ticket, if be goes in to help to nominate a Democrat. o - For several years past the Chi , cago Tribune has made a specialty of compiling each year the number of Fourth of July casualties for the whole country. As a result of the use of fireworks last Fourth. accord ing to the statistical editor of the Tribune, there were 31 deaths and 2,649 persona injured not a bad showing considering it was a quiet holiday. . o i he jjurham sun says: "It 18 not always best to forsake principles tor men." . , " True.

If the former, some of their previous editorials will not be pleasant reading to them if reproduced by- the Republicans as Democratic authority. Whatever they may say, it is certainly evident that the majority of the Democratic voters want him, if there is any thing in their expressions in the county conventions. REPUBLICAN SPLIT? If reports are true all is not bar. mony in the State Republican ranks, and according to these reports the bone of contention is Pritchard. The Franklin .Times prints a letter, signed ? A Committee of Republi cans, which it says recently came to its possession, which urges the Re publicans of the State to repudiate Pritchard, who, the letter says, ha a :hui ozi , .purity. Tie ic:o c tencr cf tU eiier is la efect that the j irty, or at least the members of it behind that communication, are tired of Pritchard's bosism and it protests against the management of the State organization by a federal oEee holder. With a fsctioa of his own party arrayed against him, Pritch ard'a boast of succeeding himself becomes more vainglorious, nays the Charlotte News, and the News sixes it np about right. o NERVE AND NERVES. It is a good thing to have "nerve " It is a bad thing to have nerves. Ninety per cent of our American people suffer from nervous com plaints in a greater or less degree. Nervousness seems to be the na tional disease. It is the result of the strenuous life of our times. Sipecially is it so in business, where the struggle for supremacy leads all to work at high pressure, with in. sufficient time allowance for rest and recuperation. Advertising columns of the daily papers reflect this state of affairs in the advertisements of nerve foods, nerve medicines, nerve tonics and the services of nerve specialists. We do not know Siri . Swanan der, but we heartily endorse the prescription he writes for the ner. vous business man. TbUisit: "Eat of plain food, slowly and regularly. "Breathe fresh air at all times. "Exercise judiciously. "Rest mentally and physically. "Try to sleep. "Do something for some one. - "In a few months your brain will be clear and your senses bright. Before the year is out you will stand erect, looking the future square in the face, with fearless eyes." It has been Baid that bad health is largely due to bad conscience. The iman who honestly strives to follow the dictates of his conscience can stand up under a terrible pres sure of work both mental and phy sical. The above writer strikes the key note of unselfishness when he says "Do something for some one." Our attention, oooupied with a view to helping others, will leave us little thought for own ills, and in right living they will soon disappear. Cultivate nerve, but beware of "nerves."

About 14 months ago Capt Pierce stopped at Marcus island for the purpose of adiustine? bis instru ments. He headed a party and went ashore in a steam launch. He was met on the beach by about twenty Japanese, many who were armed with rifles, and who ordered the Americans to leave the island at once. Seeing that the display of fire arms did not frighten the visi tors, the spokesman of the Japanese produced what purported to be an a a official document from the Japanese government, and nourished this pa per Detore uapt. nerce. An explo ration of the island disclosed the fact that Japanese evidenttly were at work obtaining guano. Captain Pierce made no attempt to molest the Japanese. He was' then not aware of Rosehill's claim. Captain Rosehill expects to sail for his island on July 11. THE "SUn'daNCE." Redkklna Celebrat Religions Ceremony Near Butte. Butte, Mont., July 12 -A thous and Indians from the Creek, Chip pewa,' Flathead, Lemsi, Blackfeet and other nomadio tribes, have been gathering in the mountains twenty miles south of Butte for some weeks where they are engaged in their an nual religious ceremony known as the "San Dance," which has its origin with the sun worshippers. The old and cruel ceremonies of fastening and dancing around a pole, with leather thongs tied to the poles and fastened with sticks in the breasts of some of the braves, are strictly observed and the wild dance continues until the thongs tear out toe flesh of the Indian falls exbaus ted.

They are the weapons that have betn used for generations to ght old Rheumatism, and are would be in modern warfare. ' r Rheumatism is caused bv an condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritatir.f matter that settles in the joints, muscles and nerves, and liniments and oils nor nothing else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles. They were deposited there by the Wood and can be reached only through the blood. Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the aches and pains, but these are only symptoms which are liable to return with every change of the weather; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system are infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cored until the blood has been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly and promptly as S. S. S. It neutralizes the acids and sends a stream exhilarating tonic.
