"You imoke thirty cigarette a
daj?"
"Ye on the average."
"You doo't blame tbem for your
roLdowrj copdition?"
"Not in the least,I blame my bard
work."
The physician shook his head. He
emiled in a vexed way. Then he
took a leech out of a glass jar. "Let
me show you something" he said.
Bare your arm."
The cigarette fiend bared his pale
arm, and the other laid the lean,
black leech upon it. The leech fell
to work busily, Its body began lo
ewelr. Then, all of a sudden, a
kind of shudder couvnlsed it, and it
fell to the floor dead.
That is what your blood did to
that leech," said the physician. He
took up the little corpse between
finger and thumb. "Look at it" he
said. "'Quite Utad, you see. You
poi.-oned it."
"1 guess it wasn't :v healthy leech
in the liivt pluoe," siid the cigarette
smoker Milieu! v.
'Wasn't healthy, el.? Well, we'll
try uiMin." Ainl the physician
chipped two leeches on the young
man's (hin aim.
"If they both die," s;iid the piti
ent. "I'll i.ve.ir off or, at lenst I'll
cu J iown in v daily allowance of thirty
to ton.''
Even as he spoke the smaller leech
shivered and dropped on his knee,
dead, and a moment later the larger
one f"ll beside It.
"That is ghastly." said the young
man. "I uni worse than the pesti
lence to these leeches."
"It is the empyreumatic oil in
your blood." said the medical man.
"All cigeratte l'enus have it."
"Smoke reasonably and this will
disapptar, and you will be no longer
deadly to the leech. Furthermore,
your appetite will return, yon will
sleep better, and your muddy color
will clear up. It is not hard work,
but hard smoking, that has brought
these tioubles down on you."
"Doc," said the young man, re
garding the three dead leeches
thoughtfully, "I half believe you're
right."
A faithful Friend.
"I have used Chamberlain's Colic, Chol
era and Diarrhoea Remedy since it wis
first introduced lo the public in 1872, and
have never found one instance where a cure
was not speedily effected by its use. 1 have
been a commercial traveler for eighteen
years, and never start out on a trip without
this, my faithful friend," says H A Nichols
of Oakland, Ind. Ter. When a man hs
need a remedy for thirty-five years he
knows its value and ia competent to speak
of it. For sale by Standard Drug Co., Ashe

Cared Hay Fever and Summer Cold.
A. 8. Nusbaum, Bateeville Indiana,
writes: "last year 1 suffered for three
months with a summer cold so distressing
that it interfered with my baeiness. I had
many of the symptoms of hay fever, and a
doctor s prescription did not reach my case,
and I took aeveral medicines which seemid
only to aggravate it. For'unately I insisted
upon having Foley's Honey and Tar. It
quickly cured me. My wife has since used
Foley s Honey and Tar with tUe same suc

Bspabllca Pabllelty. ' i
Thet is to be Publicity of cath
paign contributions and expenses,
law or so law. William Nelson
Cromwell Harriman's lawyer has fix
edit.
Taft, the candidate, says so and
laughs:
Sherman will say, me too.
Hitchcock looks wise and smiles.
George Runney Sheldon declares:
"I have alway been in favor of pub
licit;." tV e know it must be all true for
after Mr. Taft had ordered and the
committee had elected Hitchcock for
Cha:rman, and Sheldon for Treas
urer, Mr. Taft and the committee
seemed rather doubtful how Mr.
Sheldon, the banker of 2 Wall
Street, New York, would be regard
ed by the voters, so the following
certificate of character and promise
of publicity was given out officially.
"Mr. Sheldon is selected on the
recommendation of Cornelius N.
Blias. He is president of the Union
League Club; of New York, and was
the Treasurer of the Republican
State Committee during the cam
paign of Mr. Hughes for Governor
of New York, and reudered a com
plete statenieut uud'-r the Publicity
law of that State of the receipts and
expenditures of the campaign.
"This was one of the reasons that
induced his selection as the biw of
New York regarding publicity will
apply to his action us treasurer of
the National Committee."
What the other "reasons"' were
that induced candidate Taft and the
committee to select Mr. Sheldon las
treasurer of the Republican Nation
al Committee can be judged when
we inspect the list of Trusts aud
Corporations of which, according to
the "Directory of Directors" he is
actively conn?ced with.
Mr. Sheldon is director in the fol
lowing trusts and corporations:
American Locomotive Company.
Americau Locomotive Automo
bile Company,
Bethlehem Steel Corporation,
Cincinnati Northern Railroad
Company,
Detroit Edison Company,
Electrica. Securities Corporation,

Union Bag and Paper Company
of New Jersey.
Union Electric Light and Power
Company, . r - " '
Union Electric 'UghC Het and
Power Company of St. Lonis.
That candidate Taft dotes on
Publicity as a matter of policy is, of
course, natural, that Hitchcock will
publish every evening what be has
received and expended is doubtful,
but that Sheldon will not rest any
night daring the campaign until he
han given to the newspapers just how
mucn Rockefeller, Morgan, Harri
man and the other malefactors ot
great wealth, and the Trusts and
Corporation magnates have paid and
the amount and to whom he has
distributed the boodle is certain for
does he not say "he is and always
has been in favor of publicity."
Chronic Diarrhoea Believed.
Mr. Edward E. Henry, with the United
States Express Co., Chicago, writes, "Our
General superintendent. Mr tjuick, banded
me a bottle 61 Chamberlain's Colic, Culera
and Diarrhoei Remedy some time ago to
check an attac' of the old chronic diarrhoea.
I have used St since that time and cured
many on Our trains who have been sick.
I am an old soldier who served with Ruther
ford B. Hayes and William llcKinley four
years in the 23rd Ohio Regiment, and have
no ailment except chronic diarrhoea, which
this remedy stops at once, "For sale by

Diarrhoea Cared.
"My father has far yeara been troubled
with diarrhoea, and trU-d every means poasi
ble to effect a cure, without avail,' , writes
John H. Zirkle of Philippi. W. Vh "He
aw Chamberlain's Colic, C holers and Diar
rhoea Remedy advertised in the Philippi
Republican and decided to try it. The re
sult is one bottle cured bim and he haa not
suffered with the disease for eighteen months.
Before taking this remedy he was a constant
sufferer. He is now sound and well, and
although sixty years o'd, can do as much
work as a young man. Sold by Stand rd

Occasionally a man makes a bad
break.
Mr. E L. Marks, who conducts a general
merchandise business at Pope, Va, write:
I had chills last June and got down in very
bad shape. My system was completely run
down that I was scarcely alile to attend to
any work. I took 3 bottles of Rydale s
Tonic and felt like a new mil before I had
tioixlied taking it. It did me more good than
anything I ever found and my health was
good all last summer. Asheboro Drug Co.
