They they support theNhospitals little money will be left for other ob jects howevej^appealing in their worthiness'The difficulty in the probj^rti is this: No small town caw"expect to have a hospital so equipped as to command the pa tronage of the well-to-do class of pay patients. When a wealthy man requires to go to a hospital for an operation he will select oue in some large city where the very best medical and surgical attention and most modern facili ties for the treatment of disease may be had. It is this class of people who contribute most sup port to hospitals. Consequently hospitals in small towns must re ceive for the most part only charity patients or those who can afford to pay only moderate sums. Even such towns as Jacksonville, Fla.j and Columbia find the main taining of a hospital a heavy bur den. In Chester a physician of some means and Considerable reputa tion has established a private hos pital as an adjunct in conducting his large practice. The Chester people have formed an association to equip ancj maintain two or three beds, under an arrange ment with the proprietor, for in digent patients. This scheme ap pears to be practical. The pri vate and charitable enterprise may perhaps be successfully com bined. If one or more of Latt rens' excellent physicians should build a hospital it might be ad visable for the charitably inclined to follow the example which Chester ha? set. Every day the signs become more numerous that the Demo cratic party has gone into the campaign this year with the grim determination to win. The ex ecutive committee chosen by Chairman Taggert is composed of men not only of great business ability, but generally of extreme ly wealthy men. The treasurer, Mr. Peabody, is a native Geor gian, who in New York has amassed a large fortune and who is a member of one of the lead ing banking firms of the coun try. In Indiana the Democrats have nominated for governor John W. Kern,perhaps the strong est Democrat in the State, and it is evident that a terrific effort is to be made to carry that Slate in "fcpp.?iL-?Ljhc /v^auve of air In Eiana man on the /Republican Mticket for vice president. The Democrats of Illnois of various factions have iuvitqd Mr. Cleve land to stump that state for Judge Parker and it is cleaV that they have put behind theiV ?U divis ions and animosities Jn the stern endeavor to defeat ? Roosevelt. More apparent every day grows the fact that the conservative business people of the country re cognize the peril of retaining an impulsive and reckless person ill the White House. It is almost certain that the great Republi can leaders, while they dare not confess it, would draw a sigh of relief if they could know that the country had been saved for four years from the danger of Roosevelt's paroxysmal out breaks. While the Republicans are taunting the Democrats with the nomination of a man eighty years old for vice president, Mr. Henry G. Davis, is literally "in the sad dle" in West Virginia. He is in personal control of the campaign in that State and he is leading a fight that promises to be rarely equaled for vigor and streu itosity in American politics. In short, the whole Democratic party is aware that victory this year is possible and upon that knowledge it is acting with all the energy that could be desired. The County Cnmpnlgn.

OF SEVEN BARKS Was, thirty-five years ago, one of Germany's foremost physicians, besides lie was a cele brated botanist and chemist. His discoveries were many and invariably successful. Per haps his most imi>ortant discovery was that of the great and popular preparation called Rovon Ilnrks-cxtractcd from the bark of a specially grown Hydrangea plant. This bark grows in seven layers, each division posses; in?; wonderful Individual curafTvc values. Ono nets as a gentle cathartic, another as an at* tcrative, the third as a diuretic, the fourth aa an expectorant?while the other three layer* produce wonderful, upbuilding tonic elements. Most All Disease Emanates from the drainage system (the stom ach, bowels, liver and kidneys). When one of these organs becomes clogged or congcs'ed the others naturally suffer in sympathy, and It requires n thorough cleaning and the res toration of all of them before each can again fully perform its natural function. Seven Barks Contain nature-giving principles that will ef fect immediate relief and, in good time, a permanent cure of all such disorders. One GO cent bottle will demonstrate- its phenomenal value. Talk with your druggist about it. He will back up all we claim. If you arc ill and can not spare 60-ecnts for a bottle, write a postal and we will send you a bottle freo.
