The dem ocratic state convention, which meets today to elect four delegates at large to the Denver convention, promises to be one of the warmest In the recent history of that party. The fight Is whether the convention shall send the four delegates at large under Instructions to vote for William Jennings Bryan or whether they shall go 1o Denver unfettered. Col. James M. Guffey of Pittsburg, national committeeman from Pennsyl vania, was positive last night the con vention will not instruct tti delegates.

AN HONEST MAN SAVED BY A PHILANTHROPIST. Mr. T. A. Morgan, of Hammond, Ind. had suffered for years with his stom ach and kidneys, and while the great Hoot Juice scientist was proving the merits of the Root Juice remedy to the people of northern Indiana, Mr. Mor gan purchased six bottles of the Juice and while it was being wrapped up, he eald: "If Root Juice cures me I will make the scientist a present of one hundred dollars." A short while ago Mr. Morgan called on the scientist and said that he could eat anything with out the slightest inconvenience and that his kidney trouble was entirely cured. He wanted the scientist to take the one hundred dollars, but it was re fused. However, it was agreed to give the money to an orphan asylum. So Root Juice is not only curing the sick, but In this instance will be the indi rect means of caring for some dead mother's child. Root Juice has proved Its wonderful merits to many people of this point. From the very start it reems to soothe and heal the linings of the stomach and bowels and strength en the liver and kidneys, thereby giv ing nature a chance to, in her own way, throw off the impurities of the biood. It is a wonderful medicine, sold for $1.00 a bottle or three for $2.50, at A. G. Luken & Co.'s drug store. Knollenberg's 33 1-3 per cent discount on all Remnants. COW FEEDS A SHORT.

The THE PEOPLE'S I Open Evenings. THE The Contrary Mule. A farmer In Kentucky sought advice from a veterinary about a sick mole. The doctor advised calomel, five times the dose for a man. "How can I make bim take it?" "You pnt a stick of wood three-quarters of an Inch thick between his teeth, and then you take this rubber tube, put the calomel In it, insert la the mule's mouth, which is held open by the piece of wood, and blow the medi cine down bis throat." "That's easy euough." said the farmer. Three weeks later the doctor met the farmer, who bad changed greatly. Ha was emaciated, humped, ghastly aad bundled in heavy wrappings. "Why, what's the matter?" said the doctor. The farmer sighed deeply and spoke feebly. "That mule," he said, "that cussed, idiotic, fool mute! You see, I got ready Just as you told me, got the tube in his mouth ready to blow, and then," he paused for breath, "then that infernal mule blew first!" Thought Braed. Hatred, envy, malice, jealousy and revenge all have children. Every bad thought breeds others, and each of these goes on and on, ever reproduc ing Itself, until a world is peopled with their offspring. O. S. Marden. Presidentmg and Planting. Rutherford B. Hayes while president and visiting his home ha Ohio passed the farm of a neighbor who was plant ing potatoes In a patch near the road. The president, being somewhat of a fanner himself, noticed some peculiar ity in his neighbor's style of planting, and after a few minutes' chat he called attention to it, and the old man argued the point awhile. "After all," concluded the president, "I don't think you are doing it as it should be done for the best results." The old farmer rested his arm on the fence and looked steadily at Mr. Hayes. "They ain't neither one of us," he All Foods Kodol alone digests all foods completely. That is easily proved, and we guarantee it. Pepsin digests albumen only. Most digesters are but partial helps. t r -lit 11 ivodol does all, There is no such a thing a3 a cure for dyspepsia. We might as well talk about a cure for lame ankles. Nature must do the curing. And Nature will do it when given the chance. Tonics and stimulants may seem to help for a time. But their effect comes only from spurring the stomach to action. And weakness cannot be cured with a spur. One must relieve the stomach. Let Kodol do, for a little time, what the stomach fails to do. Help It as you help a lame ankle. Reft it, as you rest other organs that nfed to recuperate. And stop the irritation of hard, undigested food. You wlU be surprised to note how quickly the stomach can regain Its strength. All modera treatments for Indigestion aim at this relief. But they aim In different ways. Some advise dieting. That brings partial relief by omitting some elements which the stomach can't digest. But the omitted foods are important. The body requires many food elements. When you cut some of them out. you are robbing some part. How can Nature restore digestive strength if you deprive it of nourishment ? Another common way is to take pepsin, or di gesters which depend almost solely on pepsin. That helps a littJ. for pepsin digests albumen. But only part of your food is albumen. Pepsin can't digest starch; It can't digest fat What will become of them?

Teter Caesar Labouchere, then a clrk in the banking house of Hope & Co., Amsterdam, was seat by his patrons to Mr. Baring, the London banker, to negotiate a loan. He dis played in the affair so much ability as to win the esteem and confidence of the great English financier. "Faith," said Labouchere one day to Baring, "your daughter Is a charming creature. I wish I could persuade you to give me her hand." "Young man, you are joking, for, se riously, you must allow that Miss Bar ing couKd never become the wife of a simple clerk." "But," said Labouchere, "If I were in partnership with Mr. HopeT' "Oh, that would be quite a different thing. That would entirely make up for all other deficiencies." Returned to Amsterdam, Labouchere said to his patron. "You must take me Into partnership." "My young friend, how can you think of such a thing? It Is impossible. You are without fortune, and" "But if I became the son-in-law of Mr. Baring?" "In that case the affair would be soon Bettled, and so you have my word." Fortified with these two promises, M. Labouchere returned to England and in two months after married Miss Baring and became a partner in the house of nope & Co. Henry Labou chere, editor of London Truth, is hi9 grandson.
