J IN Oil) ififtlie question of health 11 rta. becomes mainly a question of nutrition. If the stomach and other organs of digestion and nutri tion are kept in a healthful condition there will be a well-nourished body, and little liability to disorders of the liver, bowels or such other disorders as may reeuii rrom in nutrition and lack of exer cise. Dr. Pierce's Golden Med ical Discovery cures diseases of the stomach and other or gans of diges tion and nutri tion, and also diseases of oth er organs which are caused by the diseased condition of the stomach. By enabling the perfect nutri tion of the body it increases the vital power promotes a vigorous old age. " I was a sufferer from chronic diarrhea for five years," writes Mrs. Marv A. Aaron, of Rolla, Phelps Co.. Mo. "I tried different remedies, which would give me relief for a short time only. My trouble would return as bad as ever I consulted you in Julv, 1900, and by your advice commenced luiug Dr. Pierce's remedies. I took two bottles of the Golden Medical Discovery three vials of the 'Pellets,' and some of the Extract of Smart-Weed,' as you advised. I have not had any return of mv trouble since using your medicines. Am now seventy-one years old and I never had anvthiug to relieve me so quick. I think Dr. Pierce's medicines the greatest-on earth. Should I ever have any re turn of my trouble shall use your medicine My thanks to you for your advice and thanks to Almighty God for restoring me to health through your hands." Accept no substitute for " Golden Med ical Discovery." There is nothing "just as good" for diseases of the stomach, blood and lungs. Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the best laxative for old people.

The State Supreme Court grants a new trml iu the ( Jattis-Kilgo dam age suit on the ground that it was Improper for the Judge of the lower court to allow certain excepted evi dence to go the jury and then even after argument was iu to withdraw it by telling the jury not to consider it. Such evidence the partizan court holds. Judge .Montgomery writing the opinion, would be bound to bias the minds of the jury. So Granville county is again to be afflicted with this trial, when two honest and competent juries, after hearing all the evidence, have given their verdict for Gattis, which met with the approval of a majority of the people. Notwithstanding the fact that the lower court held and charged that what was said at the meeting of investigation was a qual ified privilege and that the jury wrere not to consider this as showing mal ice, but were allowed to hear this for what It was worth in connection with other evidence and as throwing light upon other evidence later ad mitted, yet the higher court orders another new trial. Such a ruling as the higher court has given makes, it seems to us, all charges and plots of a defamatory nature privileged and allowable. JJy permission of the court the flood gates of defamation and "privilege" are opened and the names of good men are allowed to be defamed and their fortunes to be ruined under the protection of partizan decisions. We speak this from honest conviction for the people know where we have always stood in this matter. If the courts are to uphold such thina.8 then the newspapers as well as indi viduals may slander (or libel) whom they will, with impunity. For years we have been an editor and we want their rights upheld, and we believe in reedom of speech as well as of the press, but if such " privileges " are to be allowed then all libel laws be come a nonentity. To our mind the attitude of some of the ministers of our land is dis tressing. We regret to say that many of the leading ministers of the great Methodist church are bowing md worshipping at the shrine of monopoly and the great tobacco trust. But we are glad to say that there are some left of the "humble sort" who have not "bowed the knee to Baal."
