"Some years ago, as a result of too
close attention to business, my health
failed. I became weak, nervous, was
unable to look after my interests, and
manifested all the symptoms of a (le- '

and gradually increased my weight from
one hundred and twenty-five to two
hundred pounds. Since then. I and my

needed, and we are all in the best of

Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I believe my children

Able Address to the People.
To the Democratic voters of South
Carolina:
I have the honor to place my name
jL before you as a candidate for the
office of United States Senator, the
highest office in the gift of the people
of our State. Controlled by the
requirements of duty, I cannot leave !
the bench to go upon the hustings, |
and I know that you will excuse my
; absence from the political meetings |
now being held and that you will ;
4: ^permit me to adopt this mode of
communication. If I should receive
your favorable consideration, I can |
^ only promise to do my duty. My ;
record is before you and it is for you !
to determine whether or not I am
deemed worthy of this high honor.
In State pol.t'cs, I belong to no
clique or faction other than the
Democratic party. _ I occupy the j
same position that t*' "h, fairness and
fidelity to the cause of Anglo-Saxon ;
supremacy has always compelled me ;
- to occupy, and that is the majority
must rule. When the verdict has
i. been rendered, all strife and conten- !
tion must; cease and at the general :
el ction all Democrats should stand \
j
together and work together for the j
common weal. To this end I have j
used my best efforts to reconcile the
differences which have existed among
our people, and I shall continue upon
this linj. I have always deprecated j
any unjust censure or abuse of our
v pubiic officials. They are the servants
of the people and should act
so as to be above suspicion, and
while they should always be held to
a strict accountability, no one should ;
be brought before the bar of public ,
opinion and condemned before being j
heard In seeking your suffrages, }
Sr
I shall not descend to the low plane i
of vituperation or abuse. Success |
by the use of such methods is less to
be decired than failure without them.
I now beg and invite your attention
to a short statement of my views on
the important national questions now
being agitated.
k 1. The monetary question overshadows
all others and its determination
will result in the return of peace
and prosperity, if truth and justice
prevail; or in ruin and bankruptcy,
if the blind worshippers of a single
gold standard should succeed. Let j
us return to the money of our forefarthers,
the money cf the ConstitutioD,
the money that made this j
country the greatest under the sun;:
and let gold and silver be both j
* coined freely and without limit at a j
ratio of sixteen to one as money of i
redemption, with equal legal j
Render power, without waiting for !
international agreement. If other j
nations fall i?;to line, so much the
better, but, if not, this nation should
occupy the position cf independence
justified by its power and required
by the needs of its people. I do not
Approve of the financial policy recently
pursued b/ the general government
in surrendering i's option
to redeem its obligations in either
gold or silver. It it had not b e for
ihis blunder the necessity for issuing
bonds would not have existed.
% I advocate the enforcement of
the Democratic doctrine of a tariff
for revenue only. I am in favor of a
graduated income tax and such
amendments of the Constitution of
| the United States as will permit
j legislation to that end. The accu;
mulation of the colossal fortunes by
I a few people is a constant menace to
our free institutions. The laws of
J supply and demand no longer fix the
value of the products of industry and
| they are forced to agree to the uniust
exactions of combined capital
and, as a result, the rich grow richer
and the poor become poorer. Something
must be wrong and a remedy
i must be found and speedily applied.
I am in accord with Senator Tillman
iu the positions assumed by hiin in
the Senate, and if elected I shall
supplement his able effoits to protect
the rights of the people with
such power as I may have and with
all the earnestness of my nature.
Trusting that I may at some future
time have the opportunity to appear
before you to discuss the issues involved,
I am,
Respectfully,
Joseph H. Earle.

Last summer one of cur grand
children was sick with a severe bowel
trouble. Our doctor's remedies had
failed, then we tried Chamberlains
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy,
which gave very speedy relief. "We
regard it as the best medicine ever
put on the market for bowel com
plaints.?Mrs. E. G. Gregory, Frederickstown,
Mo. This certainly is
the best medicine ever put on the
market for dysentary, summer comj
plaint, colic and cholera infantum in
children. It never fail5 to give
prompt relief when used in reasona|
ble time and the plain printed directions
are followed. Many moth1
ers have expressed their sincere grat|
itude for the cures it has effected.

Malaria and Rheumatism.
From the Journal, Wilmington. Ohio.
On one of the fertile farms of the
rich Ohio Valley, seven miles from
Wilmington, the county seat of Clinton
Co., Ohio, and but a short distance
from the small town of Melvin, their
post office, in a cozy, little country
home, resides John Arrasmith and
his wife, Minnie.
A few days since a representative
of the Journal drove out to Melvin to
see them. Iu the course of the conversation,
Mrs. A. detailed the fact
of her cure:
"Last July," said she, "from undue
exposure in my woik about the farm,
I contracted malarial fever and rheumatism
and suffered from the illness
greatly. I could not throw it off,
and although constantly attended by
local physicians, continued to grow
T i ? i r
worse, jd cepiemuer 1 uau^uia jocic
cold, which greatly increased my
other troubles, and taking to my bed
there I lay for months. The rheu
matism grew more aggravated, and
for eight long weeks prior to last
Christmas I was perfectly helpless,
my limbs below the hips being as if
paralyzed and I having no more use
of them whatever. I could not-help
myself in any way, and was not able j
to turn over in bed unless my husband j
or some one else came and turned
me. Medicine which the physicians
left did no good, and nothing I could I
take afforded any relief. I was discouraged
and feared that never again
would I be up and about the house.
It was anything but a bright prospect j
for I was but twenty years old, had i
been married only two years and my j
life was before me and to go through '
it a helpless cripple, a burden to my '
friends, was a fearful fate to think of. !
"I had read in the Wilmington j
Journal from time to time, articles j
telling of the wonderful cures which j
had been effected by Dr. Williams' j
Pink Pills, and had become impressed I
with the cases where they had caused
person to walk and recover who had |
been as helpless as I was. Consult-!
ing my husband, we determined to (
give them a trial. So he drove into j
Wilmington and going to the drug ]
store of George W. Brown, bought
*11 t 1 1 _ 1_
three boxes 01 tne puis. 1 Degan taa- i
ing them immediately on his return.
That was about the first of the present
year. Before the first box was gone
I began to realize that I was getting
better, and by the time I finished the j
second box the pain with which I
had been suffering for nearly six
months and the disease which had j
made me helpless for eight weeks
disappeared entirely and I got up. ,
I took the third box of pills and have
never felt a twinge of rheumatism j
since, and I am doing my daily work
and feeling as well as anybody."
To confirm the story Mrs. Arra- i
smith made the following affidavit:
Sworn to before me'and subscribed I
in my presence at Wilmington, Ohio, j
this 29th day of June, 1895.

I see there are lots of candidates
out for office. We have plenty of

a wife, but I don't think very many
will get elected.
We have a great deal of sickness
in our section. Charlie Bickley is
very ill with typhoid fever, but I
hope it will not be long before the
young man will be able to go to see
those loved ones again. I am very
sorry to here of his illness, for he is
good company and those broad
smiles enliven us all.
Mr. Editor you ought to have been
over here to the pig pulliDg last week.
Knowing your fondness for pork ribs
you would have enjoyed it very much.
One of our young fellow's girl ran
awiy with another fellow, and it has
made him so glad that he is now
I going to have a barbecue. Lookout,

' A "Ccnfed" to General Grant.
Charlotte Democrat.
A Lincoln county Confederate
veteran called to see us one day this
; week and presented us with a cpy
of the following little story, which
first appeared in print in 1ST 1, and
if at any time since, its droll, good j
natured humor will excuse its reproduction
here:
"During the war a 'Confed' wes '
captured by the Yankees and hap
pened to be taken to General Grant's
i headquaiters. After being ques- 1
tioned by the General, the old 'Con- j
fed' asked him where he was goiDg.
' I am going,' said Grant, 'to Itickmond,
to Petersburg, to heaven and !
! it ma}' be I will go to hell.'*
After e^ing the General for
several minutes, the old 'Coilfeu'
I said:
j "General Grant, you can't go to
Richmond for General Lee is there;
i you can't go to Petersburg for Gen- i
eral Beauregard is there; you can't i
| go to heaven for Stonewall Jackson
is there? but as to going to hell, you
; may get there, for I know of no
j Confederates in that region."
"Why the "Water of the Sea is
Salty.
Very many years ago there lived
in Europe a wise man who was all
the time tryiDg, in his own way to
make new discoveries in nature. He
had noticed, as perhaps many of you
have done, that in old tea kettles
which have been in use a long time
there is often a crust of stone about
the sides and bottoms.
"It is certainly stone,said he.
"Now, there has been nothing but
water put into this kettle, and whence
has this stone come?''
Hp studied the matter carefully
and fcr a long time, and then he
came to the conclusion that the water
had, by boiling, been changed into
stone. To prove that this was true,
he took clear, fresh water from a
spring, and boiled it in a clean, new
kettle. After a time, just as he expected,
the sides and bottom of the
kettle were covered with a layer of
stone.
"No one can now dispute the fact,"
said he. "Stone is made from hot
water. If we could only produce
enough heat, all the water of the
ocean might be turned into solid
rock.''
This was a very strange conclusion, i
you will think; and so it was. But
where did the stone in the tea kettle
come from if it was not made out of !
the watei*
Put a little salt into a basin of I
water. After a little while you will
see no salt in it, but all of the water
will taste salty. The salt is so nearly
the color of the water that one cannot
see any change in the liquid?it
looks as pure and fresh as when it
* -i t a, ?
was nrsi arawu lroui iuc tpiug.
But taste the smallest drop of the
water and you taste the salt also; for
the salt has been divided into a great
number of little particles, which float
all through the water?thousands of
them in every drop?and make it
salty.
If you had put indigo instead of
salt into the water, every drop of the
water would have been bluish, be
cause it held many particles of indigo.
Iu the same way a little sugar will
sweeten a great deal of water. The
sap or juice of the sugar cane, or
the sugar maple is nothing but water,
with many fine particles of sugar in
it. When the water is boiled away,
these particles remain behind as so
much sugar. By boiling salt water
we also obtain salt. The water goes
away in the form of vapor or steam,
and leaves the solid matter behind.
If you had weighed the water before
you put the salt in it, and had
caught all the steam and held it until
it had cooled into water agaiD, you
would have found, on weighing it
a second time, that no water had been
lost; and you would have found that
it did not taste of the salt. Also, if
you had weighed the salt before put- ;
ting it into the water, and then again
after the water had been all boiled
away, you would have discovered
that none of it had been lost.
There is a great deal of salt in the
ground. There are also many other
things which dissolve in water.
When the rain falls from the clouds,
it sinks into the earth and takes up
these substances in small particles,
just as you have seen water dissolve
sugar and salt. When the water
bubbles up in springs and runs down
the rivers into the sea, it still holds
the little particles of salt, or stone,
or whatever they may be, and adds
so much more?however little it may
be?to that which the sea already
contains. Thus it is that the water
of the sea has become salty.
When salty water is boiled, what
becomes of the water? It escapes
in the form of vapor or steam.
Wh it 1 e ernes of the sail? It is left
behind in the vessel. When water
that is full of particles of stone boils
away, what becomes of the stone?
You will have no trouble now in
telling where the stones which is
found in the tea kettles comes from. !
You are wiser in that respect than !
the wise man of whom I told you,
for you knoA* that stone is not made
of water.
"What forces the water to leave the
particles of salt and other matter
which is gathered from the earth?
It is heat. It is by heat that it is '
driven off iu the form of steam or j
vapor. This vapor goes up into the |
air. When it there becomes so thick
that we can see it, we call it fog or a i
cloud.
The clouds are blown by the wind
into cooler regions of air, and the
vapor condenses into drops and comes
back to the earth in the form of rain.
The rain drops sink into the ground
and once more gather little particles
of salt or stone, or some other mineral,
which they carry down to the
sea. Then they are again turned
into vapor by the heat of the sun,
anil again driven over the earth by
the wind, to water the parched
ground and gladden the farmer's
heart by making his crop grow abund- '
antly. And this change is going on '
every day, all over the world, yet not j 1
a drop of water, not a particle of j
matter of any kind, is gained cr lost.
Now you not only know why a 1
layer of stone is found in old tea (
kettles, but you have learned why the
water of the sea is salty, what be
comes of steam or vapor, and what
causes rain, By thinking a moment, 1
you will also be able to tell why we '
have salt springs and sulphur springs, '
and why the waters in different 1
springs and wells are so unlike. '
"i t five weeks I lived on cold
water so to speak," writes a man who
suffered terribly from indigestion.
He could hardly keep anything on
his stomach. What stayed wasn't

pangs.
This is not an uncommon case.
Dyspeptics don't get enough nourishment.
They are generally thin and
week.
They may eat enough, but they
dont digest enough. Much of what
they eat turns into poison. If this
keeps on there's no telling what disease
they may get next. That's
why it is best to take Shaker Digestive
Cordial, as soon as symptoms of
indigestion appear.
It cures all the evils of indigestion,
and prevents the evil which indigestion
causes. Sold by druggists,

Shameful Practices,
Abbeville Press and Banner,
i We learn that in some counties of
South Carolina the candidates are
being mulcted by unscrupulous people
who carry around subscription
papers for objects worthy enough in *
themselves, but in which the candidate
may not be specially interested. ]
The carrying of a subscription paper i
may imply one or two things: That *
the recipients of the candidate's favor ,
will sell him their voles for the (
money extorted from him, or that the j
people will vote against the candi- t
date if he refuses to accede to their (
demands for money. The methods
and plans of the highwayman are
honorable and respectable when compared
to the hypocritical people who
would thus extort money from the <
candidate. When a candidate is
forced to give money from fear, or if ;
it - 1 . e ? _ It
He gives money in me nope 01 receiving
votes thereby, somebody is
corrupt, and somebody deserves the
contempt of honest men. It is
cowardly to combine against a candidate
to extort money, and the general
public should vote for no candidate
if it be ascertained that he has
attempted to buy votes. Let some
voter at each public meeting ask
each of the speakers if he has subscribed
or otherwise given money to
influence bis election. If any candidate
should be discovered giving
money duriDg the campaign to
churches or benevolent purposes outside
of his own church, let the public
estimate such as ? ne in which cor- j
ruption is the foundation. No can- (
didate who spends money in the
canvass should be elected. If the
offices are for sale, only the rich will
receive the honors.
Although it is said such disgraceful
condition exists in some of the
counties, yet we are glad to say that
no such reprehensible practice prevails
in Abbeville county. Any man
can be a candidate in Abbeville
county without fear of meeting a
highwayman with a dirty paper
which is designed to force money
from him, and he need fear no
threats of boycotts if he does not
surrender his last dollar to an unconscionable
beggar.
Another shameless practice in
other counties which meets with no
favor in this county is that of poking
around religious meetings that they
never did and never would attend except
during campaign years and to
get votes. Pious and good men in
this county suspect a man's motives
at once when he begins to stick his
face in among Christian worshippers.
Christian people and the church j
should resent any effort on the part !
of the candidate to use the church, i
the Sunday schools, or other religious j ]
meetings as stepping stones to po- |
litical preferment. i i
"Ye caDnot serve two masters." ! <
If a candidate would prostitute the !
holy precincts of the church in ad- j
vancing his chances for otllce, let the i
Christian people mark him down as a j
hypocrite. When a politician wants j
to mis other people's religion with j
| his politics, look out. A wolf is '
among you.
Voters should not neglect to register.
.o; ie . : .
All the People
Should keep themselves healthy and
especial care should be given to this
matter at this time. Health depends
upon pure, rich blood, for when the
blood is impure and impoverished
diseases of various kinds are almost
certain to result. The one true blood
purifier is Hood's Sarsaparilla. By

us power 10 puuij uuu >iuui?u nr.- i
blood it has proved itself to be the
safeguard of health, aud the record
of remarkable cures effected proves
that it has woDderful power over
disease. It actuallyjand permanently
cures when all other preparations
fail to do any good whatever. 38

ver this evening, was met by a great
outpouring of people from all parts
of the State. The demonstration
was non partizen and it is doubtful
if the scenes of enthusiasm have
been parelleled in "Western history.
The explosion of a bomb at the
union depot at 8 p. m. announced
the arrival of the Senator's special
train in Dever. The streets were
jammed with people. Immense
lags and pannants, and banners of |
welcome were everywhere displayed,
in immense parade was already
formed. Military and civic aud laoor
organizations made up the procession
and the Teller Silver Club,
2,000 strong, was in line. As the Senator
stermed from the train there
X &
svent up a mighty shout and the
roar of human voices drowned out
he noise of the bombs.

EAels of the Treasury Department,
laid today that he expected Mr.
Whitney and others of the anti silver
ving of the party on Friday. Mr.
Eckels thinks that after that time
;he complexion of sentiment will
;hange somewhat and that the silver
neople will not have such complete
jommand of the situation as they
iow appear to have. \\iuie 3ir.
Whitney is regarded as the leader of
,he gold forces they expect to be
tble to muster a formidable array of
listinguished men who will assist
lim in his efforts to prevent the
larty's throwing itself entirely upon
,he white metal side of the controrersy.
In addition to Mr. Whitney
senators Hill and Murphy, Hon.
Jharles Tracy, and Governor Flower,
Hon. Frederick R. Coudert and ex
Postmaster General Bissell are expected
from New York, as are Hon.

"I cannot but believe,v said Mr. !
Sckels, after giving this list, "that j

Democrats. They will appeal to the j

ilso for the preservation of the J

ulists. They must also listen to appeals
to their reason against the over- _
turoing of Democratic precedents,
as is proposed to be done in the mat
ter of the abrogation of the lw> t
thirds rule. No Democrat can regard
such things as this and such as
the frequent consultation with the
St. Louis bolters with equanimity,
and such proceedings will only encourage
the independent movement
which is soon to follow them if they
are coupled with a free coinage declaration
iu the platform.1'
Asked if .the gold men would bolt,
in case of a positive pronunciamento
for silver, Mr. Echels expressed the
opinion that there would be no open
bolt. "But,'' he said, "there would
be a defection at the polls which it *
would be impossible to prevent.
The rank and file of the party cannot
be made to stand up for the
# # *
party if the party convention insists
*
upon overturning all Democratic precedents."

Old But Good.
The following story originated in
Ohio many years ago, but will bear
repeating:
A minister in one of our orthodox
churches, while on his way to preach
a funeral in the country, called to
see one of his members, an old lady
who had just been making sausages,
and she felt very proud of them, ins
stin<? on the minister taking some
O

of tbe links home io bis family.
After wrapping the sausages in a
cloth, the minister carefully placed
the bundle in the pocket of his great
coat, Thus equipped, he started for
tbe funeral. "While attending the
solemn ceremonies of the grave,
some hungry dogs scented the sausages,
and were not long in tracking
them to the pocket of the good man's
overcoat. Of course this was a great
annoyance, and he was several times
placed under the necessity of kicking
tbe whelps away. The obsequies
at the grave completed, the
minister and the congregation repaired
to the church where the
funeral discourse was to be preached.
After the sermon was finished, the
minister halted to make some remarks
to his congregation, when a brother
who wished to have an appointment
given out, ascended the stairs of the
pulpit, and gave tbe minister's coat
a bitch to get his attention. The

and gave a sudden kick and sent the
good brother sprawling down the
steps. '-You w.ll excuse me, brethren
and sisters," said the minister,
confusedly, without looking at the
work he had just done "for I could
not avoid it. I have sausages in my
pocket, and that dog has been trying
to grab them ever since he came
upon the premises!"
