' New fork newspapers Inform us that
some time before bis death, Dr. James
H. Hyslop, of the psychto research so-
', clety, arranged some sort of test which,
v after bli demise, was to Indicate
' whether he still preserved a conscious
1' existence. Th nature of th test, how-
ever, was not stated. This story re
. oalls to mind th reports In th news-
t papers, at th ttm. that Prof. WJllera
-James had prepared som such similar
test before his death. Dr. Hyslop,
however. Investigated these latter re
ports, but fotfnd that Prof. Jsmes' fam-
', lly knew nothing about th alleged teat,
; although Dr. Hyslop elalmed that, In
' communications, the deed professor
himself hinted at something of the
kind.
Such compacts hav frequently been
' mad between living peraons, th one
first dying to attempt to eommuntcata,
". but results hav not been very satis-
' f jlng nor uniform. Dr. Hyslop, In his
i; lifetime, stated that In th oours of
; communications through a certain me
dium, his own father furnished him
s with a "pass sentence" or test a Iatln
; expression by which ha was . to be
identified If he purported to oomrnunl
cat through any other medium. Th
. doctor claims to hav received parts of
this sentence elsewhere, but not all of It
"' entire. This test, however, was ar-
.' ranged after th death of Dr. Hyalop's
. father.
If there shall com what appear to
be messages from Dr. Hyalop, they will
doubtless awaken wide Interest. Dr.
Richard Hodgson. Dr. I. K. Funk and

nicators, but perhaps none of these had

Senator Arthur P. Gorman who was at

over both patronage and policy, the
chairman claiming th prerogative of
party leader. Responding to some one's

members of his family.
He presents another resson' for de
clining to enter the contest which. In
view of very recent Incidents, will be
universally approved as sound and
creditable. "A presidential campaign,"
he says, "imposes upon th candidate
unavoidable expenses which I am un
able to assume and which I do not want
my friends to assume." It Is plain to
the commonest understanding that our
present system of presidential nomina
tions and elections has grievous faults.

not to constrain any man fitted for
high office to put away the honor and
opportunity because he cannot afford to
enter the lists.- Notoriously the direct

Mr. Dodson, the "Liver Tone"
Man, Tells the Treachery
, of Calomel.
Calomel loses you a day! Tou know
what calomel Is. It's mercury; quick
silver. , Calomel is dangerous. It
crashes Into sour bile like dynamite,
cramping and sickening you. Calomel
attacks the bones and should never
be put Into your system.
When you feel bilious, sluggish,
constipated and all knocked out and
believe you need a dose ot dangerous
calomel Just remember that your
druggist sells for a. few cents a large
bottle of Dodson' Liver Tone, which
Is entirely vegetable and pleasant to
take and la a perfect substitute for
calomel. It la guaranteed to start your
liver without stirring yon up Inside,
and cannot salivate.
Don't take calomel! It can not be
trusted any more than a leopard or a
wild-cat. Tak Dodson's Liver Tone
which straightens you right np and
makes you feel fine. Glv It to the
children because it Is perfectly harm
less and doesn t gripe. (Adv.)

so acting he haas exhlblten a most un
usual willpower.
Gen. fctherman's similar refusal was
even more emphatically worded. We
forget Its precis language, but in sub
static it was that he would not permit
his nam to go befor th convention i
that he would not run if nominated,
and that he would not aerv if elected.
Mr. McAdoo's. however, is vigorous

His action makes mor probable th
