The readers of this paper will be pleased to learn that there is at least one dreaded disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Catarrh Core is taken Internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby destroying the foundation of the disease, and giving the patient strength by building up the constitution and assisting nature in doiDg its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it fails to cure. Send for list of testimonials. Address F J. CHENEY & Co..Toledo.O.

On the 28th of this moDth I will leave for the Seminary at Louisvilk, Ky.; to better prepare myeelf for the work of the Goppel ministry. I regret that I Bhall not be present to o - - cast my vote against the Dicpen8ary. No longer tban yesterday I saw a negro man buy a bottle of whiskey ' for a minor from our Dispensary. I do not blame Hammond How does he kDow who they are getting it for? : Its the weakness and low down rotteDDess of the Dispensary. Some say I'm opposed to the D a!! pensary, but what will we have after it is voted out ?*' Y>u will huve what you want. We have had now for the ; last thirteen years, rule by a few | political bosses, but the people will | not always be blind while the poli3 tician fills his pockets with stoleD I money.

(IglO-aDt or Wlliuny Lmerepieewuio thing?, when he says that the Dispensary has increased cur schools from three months to six and nine * months. Some people swallow the I statement down at one gulp and say? ''see there." I would not hesitate to say?if it were not unparliamentary? that the statement is a lie out ?of about the whole cloth. Go to your school trustees and ask them how much money they got last year from | the Dispensary. They will tell you I from $12 to probably $25. Now, pray tell me, how you can run a school for four or five months or $25? What a l;e of the devil. You need not supp&se any man has so much real love for the Dispensary law as to spend so much of bis time for nothing. He still has his fingers in the pie. The County School Superintend dent of Education's books show students enrolled last year 6,793 and money received from Dispensaries -4.793 76 Now you divide the amount received by the number of students and you will see bow much esch student should get. But others will talk along this line and so I will hush. If these were my last words to my friends I would say, quit taking everything you bear for truth witbout- investigation. Klondike. Doctors said Ee would not Live. Peter Fry, Woodruff, Pa., writes: "After doctering for two years with the best physicians in Waynesbnrg, and still getting worse, the doctors advised me if I had any business to attend to I had better attend to it at once, as I could not possibly live another month as there was no cure for me. Foley's Kidney Cure was recommended to me by a friend, and I immediately sent my son to the store for it, and after taking three bottles I began to get better and continued to improve until I was entirely well."

Hunt, of Lime Ridge, Wis., was cured of her dreadful sickness. "Doctors," she writes, "had given me up; friends were ready to bid me the last farewell; clouds i of despair darkened my horizon, and I was a wreck on the shores of despondency, when I began to take Electric Bitters for my. frightful stomach and liver complaint. To the astonishment j of all, I was benefited at once and am now completely and miraculously restored to health." At The Kaufmann DrugCo's. drugstore; price 50c.; guaranteed. The Say is Coming. The day is certainly comiDg when the farmers'will be in a position to dictate the price of cotton. Had it not been for the stroog organization which has been bujlt up in every Southern State what would the staple be selling for todaj? Seven or eight cent would probably be the highest price, and, therefore, by means of the organization of farmers and husineas men from two to three cents has been saved to the South on every pound of cotton held by the farmers. And the end is not yet. An Awful Cough Cured. "Two years ago our little girl had a touch of pneumonia, which left -lier with an awful cough. She had spells of coughing, just like one with the whooping cough and some thought she would not get well at all. We got a bottle of Chamberlain's Cough Remedy, which acted like a charm. She stopped coughing and got stout and fat," writes Mrs. Ora Bussard, Brubaker, 111. This remedy is for sale by The Kaufmann Drug Co. ? i ?
