Dr. Miles' Heart Cure
Effected Cure.
Heart disease is curable, but m people of
advanced age it does not readily; lend itself
to ordinary treatment. There is, however,
hope for all sufferers in Dr. Miles' Heart
Cure, which we know from watching; hun
dreds of cases and from the letters of grateful
sufferers, will cure where all else has failed.
It is not only a wonderful cure for weak and
diseased hearts, but it is a blood tonic, a reg
ulator of the heart's action and the most
effective treatment ever formulated for im
proving the circulation of the blood.
"During; the Civil war I contracted heart
disease, and in 1896, while living in the grand
old town of Lexington, Va, I grew so much
worse, I left there with my wife to visit my
sister-in-law, Mrs. T. A. Kirby, at Roanoke,
Va. While I said nothing to anyone I never
expected to live to return to the dear old
town. On reaching Mrs. Kirby's she insisted
I should try Dr. Miles' Heart Cure. I pro
cured a few bottles of it, alro the Nervine
and Tonic. After using one or two bottles, I
could see no improvement, and I despaired
of ever being better, but my faithful wife in
sisted on keeping it up, which I did. Im
provement soon began in earnest and I took
in all fifteen or sixteen bottles. I was re
stored to perfect health and while I am 70
vears old, I am comparatively a boy. You

Almost every orfe is having his say

Bather ba Eight Than
President.
and that be had been nominated for President, he at once wired a promi
nent member of the convention that inasmuch as the platform had no
financial plank he felt it bis duty to state that he was a sound money man,
favored the gold standard, and that if the convention could not accept him
as such for its nominee it would better nominate another-man. What we
have to say is, that whether or not the gold standard is better for the coun
try than bimetalism, Judge Parker showed himself altogether a man of
splendid integrity. He preferred to turn aside from the Presidency rather
than go before'the people of the country in silence on the question which
he regard of such importance. Our prediction is that Judge Parker's tele
gram will make him President. -
tut
The Atlanta Constitution expects to see a Southern man nominated
for President yet. It says : "One ot the most significant tacts about the
A President From the
South.
Not only was John Sharp e Williams, a Southern man, temporary chair
man and Champ Clark, another Southern man, permanent chairman, but
the chairmanship ot the two most important committees that on plat
form and that on rules went to eminent Southerners. But the services of
the Southern contingent did not consist solely in holding the Important
offices. It was Senator Bailey, of Texas, who was the most important
factor in shaping the platform, and he was assisted in this by Tillman, of
South Carolina ; Williams, of Mississippi, and the Southern contingent
generally. The South stood solidly for a sane and conseryative platform,
and got it.
"In straightening out the misunderstanding resulting from the telegram
of Judge Parker, the Southern leaders played the most important part.
The Eastern leaders relied solely on the common sense of the Southerners
to bring order out of what at one time seemed chaos, and they brought it.
The South is again taking the proper place in shaping the action of the
party in which it is not only the strongest, but the most conservative, ele
ment. The South will, at some time in the not far future, do its full
duty by insisting upon a Southern man for the .'.-seideacy."

This paper had occasion some months ago to quote some remarkable
stories from the Richmond Times-Daipatch as told by its correspondents in
A Hidden Treasure.
Scottsville, Va. :
"On 'Scot lands,' the estate of Senator Thomas S. Martin, a few miles
from this place, lies buried a quantity ot treasure. During the war, while
the Federals made numerous raids through the country, the directors of
the banks of Scottsville hid away their money in strong boxes under the
beds of small streams, the weight of the money holding down the boxes.
Several thousands were in each box. Mr. Charles A. Scott stowed away
underground on the farm at 'Scotlands' between $8,000 and $10,000,besides
a quantity ot plate and jewels. The Federal troops ret fire to his home,
along with many others, and when he saw it burning, while still at some
distance from the bouse, the shock was so great that he fell dead. To this
day no one has ever discovered the whereabouts of the hidden treasure, and
for some one it lies waiting to be had for the finding and digging !
"On the same place, year after year, since the time of Mr. Daniel Scott,
great flocks of wild geese have come to be fed each spring and fall on their
semi-annual journeys. The custom of feeding the wild geese originated
with Mr. Scott, and was kept up by his descendants. He had a special gar
ment which he donned when feeding the hungry birds, and in this they
inyariably recognized him. The children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren
of the first geese must haye been well instructed in regard to this
'wayside inn,' for they always tarried there to get provisions."

It has come to be a sort of tradition with the Amerioan people to regard
the year in which we elect a President as inevitably a dull year. Thousands
of people will glibly say that it being a Presl
A Dull Tear. aentlal campaign year, business will likely be
dull and a general depression will be the result ; but not one in a thousand
upon an analysis of the whole matter can give any really good reason tor
saying so. If it is necessarily true that a Presidential year brings depress
ion, It is a great pity that the year 1904 is to be the victim of such a time ;
for the prosperity ot the country is too pleasing to be so disturbed. We
believe that the Richmond News-Leader has it about right in the follow
ing observations :
"We are a people who try to break away from tradition, to demonstrate
the possibility of the impossible and to prove that a thing need not be so
because it always has been so. Can anybody offer any real reason why this
Presidential year should be one of depression or why business .should be
dull? Certainly there is nothing to be afraid of, unless it is Mr. Roosevelt,
and we have him already. If there is to be any change it must be for the
better. No human being can doubt the common sense, the conservatism
of Judge Parker and the recent Democratic convention has proved too
plainly for question that the conservative element is permanently and
firmly in control of the Democratic party. Why then should the tradi
dition continue to be respected?
"When the commerce of the country combines to take gloomy and pes
simistic views, gloom, doubt and tear must result in everything ; but we
can see no reason or excuse for them. The crops promise finely, the coun
try is at peace, both the great political parlies are committed to conserva
tism and labor disturbances are no more than usual. Why should not this
year break the traditions and establish a new precedent of booming busi
ness and prosperity in the very face ot a pending general election."

Bismarck's Strategy.
Youth's Companion.
Bismarck was not only a Statesman,
ab'e to handle abstract theories of gov
ernment, but a shrewd player of the
lesser games of life. Some years ago
an anonymous writer contributed to
the New Revibw this story of the Iron
Chancelor's very human cleverness.
When he represented Prussia at the
Diet of Frankiort in 1866, he had rea
son to suspect that bis letters and dis
patches were tampered with by the
Austrians. Other diplomats suffered
from the same meddling.
One day, after a stormy meeting,
Bismarck and the representative from
Hanover walked away together and as
they walked the Hanoverian touched
on the sore subject, and asked Bis
marck if he bad found a way to get
his letters through.
"You shall know presently," answer
ed BismarcK.
The- prince, as the two strolled along,
led the way through dingy by-paths
into a slum. Drawing on a thick pair
of gloves, he entered a little shop where
the poor bought tea, cheese, pickles,
lamp oil and such commodities. The
astonished Hanoverian followed.
"Boy," called Bismarck to the stupid
looking lad behind the counter, "do
you sell soap?"
"Yes, eir," replied the boy, putting
before him a variety of strong-scented
cakes.
"How much is this? And this?"
said the diplomatist, handling one
cake after another.
While the soap selected was being
wrapped up Bismarck thrust his band
into bis pocket and drew out an unen
closed letter. He gave an exclamation
as of dismay and surprise. Apparently
annoyed at bis forgetfulness, he cried,
"Boy, do you sell enyelopes?"
Envelopes of a cheap grade were
produced, and Bismarck put the letter
in one. Then he asked for pen and
ink, and set out to write the address,
but bis heavy glove hindered him.
' Here, boy," be exclaimed, throwing
down the pen, "just write this address
for me !"
When the scrawl was finished, Bis
marck took the letter and lett the shop.
"There," he said, putting the letter
to his companion's nose, '"what with
the soap, the cheese, the candle and the
herring, I don't think they'll smell my
dispatches under that writing."
Some Egg Statistics.
"The eggs produced on farms in
1899 would fill a train of cars that
would reach from Washington to Chi
cago. Look at the figures: 1,293,
818,111 dozen, or 13,127,272 crates of
thirty dozen each. These are worth
$111,286,370. In 1889 the product
was 171,195,288 fewer than in 1899.
The average price per dozen ranged
from 7 7 in Texas to 13 in Alaska.
The average price in the whole coun
try was 11.15 cents per dozen. There
were two hundred and three eggs for
each of our population and they were
worth $1 89.
"In the production ot eggs Iowa

FAMING IN TEE
0LD DAYS.
Profitable Then, It Ought to ha Much
More so These Days.
CORN SOLD AT TEN CENTS.
Waldo F. Brown in New York Tribune.
To get a clear idea of what progress
agriculture bus made, it is necessary to
look at the conditions under which
farming was done in the first half cf
the century. First, a very heavy
amount of labor came upon the farmer
in the clearing of the farms, particu
larly in thosa states where there was
little prairie and where tho timber was
large and heavy. Then log houses
had to be built for the family and
stables to shelter the stock, and also
churches and school houses, for the
men who settled Ohio, and in fact
most of our states, were men of ideas,
who were determined to give tbeir
children education and to minister to
their higher wants as well as to the
wants of the body. Then roads were
to be built and bridges constructed, as
the market in those days Wa3 accessi
ble only by wagon, and this often at a
long distance from the farms.
Another hindrance to agricultural
progress was the character of the im
plements with which the farming must
be done. They were crude and clumsy,
mostly made by tb5 rearest black
smith ; and even the hoes, instead of
being the light, steel hoes so easy ot
operation, were clumsily forged by the
blacksmith, and the handles were made
and put in by the farmer, and often
these handles were simply bean poles
Another difficulty the farmers had
to meet was in the markets, which not
only were at a great distance from
home, but were also easily glutted, as
the cities had not made growth enough
to furnish a market for the surplus cf
the farm even when that surplus was
small. Fortunate was the man who
was located within 60 miies i a good
market for his products, and even then
he sometimes would find the market
so glutted that after having drawn his
load a long distance to it, he couiu u:
dispose of the products. As an illus
tration of this, a neighbor of mine a
man of about my own age-tel's me
that when be was IS years old he
needed a little money, and applied to
bis father for it. His father said to
him: "There is the corn crib ; shell
all the corn you wish ; take the load to
Cincinnati and sell it, and you may
have all the money it brings." He
shelled a two-horse load of corn, took
it to the mill and had it ground and
went to Cincinnati, 10 milea distant,
with the meal. He found the market
so glutted that 10 cents a bushel was
the best offer he could get for it, and
was not able to dispose of more than
half his load at that. I have forgotten
now whether he drew the remainder
home or left it with a commission man.
Thia was not only true cf corn, but
of all products. During the '10s, when
I was old enough to work on the farm,
and can recall rrices received, dressed
pork sold once as low as $1 75 a hun
dred pounds, and the highest I remem
ber during this period was $3.95 a
bundled pounds. This was considered
a remarkably good price for those who
were within 50 or 75 miles ot a mar
ket. And, the same season in which
pork opened at $3.95 in November, the
price had dropped in February to $1.75.
Eggs sold as low as three cents a dozen
and potatoes at times were scarcely
worth drawing to market, selling at 15
cents a bushel- When there was a
local failure of crop, however, prices
were high ; and I have known potatoes
to sell at 25 cents a bushel in the
spring and advance to $2 beiore the
following spring. There might be an
abundant crop and a glut in the mar
ket within 100 miles, but farmers
would not know it ; and if they did, the
wagoning of potatoes that distance
would largely reduce this profit.
The want of transportation to mar
ket was one of the chief factors in the
poverty of farmers, for it not only low
ered the price or increased the cost of
marketing what they had to sell, but
it also made what they had to buy,
which came from an eastern market,
very high in price. The only way to
get goods at this time from New York,
Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washing
ton (which seem to have been the beit
eastern markets) was to wagon them
across the Alleghany mountains, aLd
as a consequence the farmer paid more
than double the prices at which he can
now buy the necessities of life for the
