I lie bod mode a fair speech in favor of bis political candidate* for governor and against the other, and when be had finished a friend stepped forward and shook bands with him and said: i "l wane to compliment you on your i I effort It was great." ' "Theruy'ou liked my remarks, ch?" "They were bang no. I, didn't know | it was in you to orate the way you | did." "Oh, I did fairly well, I guess! But ! you must remember at the game time that this was only a cheap speech. The regular orator failed them, and they rung me in for $15. Of course I could not spread myself for that. Say, I wish I had been making a regular twenty-fire dollar speech. If I had been I should hare called the opposition candidate a liar. "I should hare shown bin utter unfitness for office. "I should hare proved that his election would ruin the country. "I should have advanced statistics to chill the blood.

"I should haTe trotted out Bunker Hill, the American eagle and the star spangled banner and waved them around until men would have busted a lung in*cheering for them.

Nearly everybody is susceptible to a twinge of rheumatism, sciatica, toothache, headache or neuralgia, and it's never safe to be withbut a good remedy for an emergency of this kind. No matter what kind of pain you have the beneficial effect of Sloan's Liniment is immediate. You lay it on lightly ?no rubbing whatever and a pleasant warmth is felt at once. The Liniment penetrates right to the bone and quickly stops the pair. Mr. Chas. J. Budlong of Anthony, It. I., Box 125, writes: "For many vears I was a <rreat sufferer from rheumatism. My hips would swell to enormous proportions and my knee joints would pain me in the most excruciating, awful manner imaginable. I used often to have to fall from the i bed into a chair and thence to the floor, when I wanted to get from my ' V>ed. I used only some six or eight bottles of your celebrated Liniment and was cured. I cheerfully recom- j mend its use to all rheumatic sulferers. Refer to me if you so desire. Ail letters answered." A rural mail carrier reported in !

She says: "Gratitude for the wonderful effect of t Eleotric Bitters in a case of acute indigestion, prompts this testimonial. I am fully convinced that for stomach and liver troubles Electric Bitters is the J best remedy 011 the market today." This great tonic and alternative medicine invigorates the system, purifies the 1 Liood and is especially helpful in k.11 r forms of female weakness. 50c. at Der- , rick's Drug Store and Kaufmann Drug f Co., and Sandel Drug Store. ? 1" <L' ?'4.' %.'
