pleasant conversationalist. On the

our reporter visited her store, ah iu re
sponse to a question told nun a very in
teresting story.
"Until about two months ago" she
began, "I enjoyed tbe very best of health
and could work night and day it neces
sary. Suddenly, without any apparent
cause, I began to suffer with intense
pains in my bead, in my limbs and tem
ples. Almost aistractea wun ioih seem
ingly never ending pain, I tried cure
after cure, prescription after prescription
and almost a gallon of medicine of all
kinds. Nothing did me any good. In
fact I became worse. The knuckles of
my hands soon became cramped and the
pain in my hips became more and more
distressing each day. Business in the
tore had to be attended to, however,
and so I was obliged, suffering aa I was,
to keep more or less on my feet ana oc
casionally I was forced to go out. This
was the ordeal I dreaded. Each time I
went out I trembled when I came near
the car tracks for my pain at times was
so severe that I was obliged to stand
perfectly still no matter where I was.
On one occasion I was Beized in this way
while I was crossing tbe tracks on
Market Street and there I stood perfectly
rigid, unable to move hand or foot while
a trolley car came thundering along.
Fortunately it was stopped before it
struck me, but the dread of it all lasted
as long as my pain, for I never knew
when crossing tbe tracks, whether I
would not drop to the ground in my
agony ana db cruenea to oeum. iy
anxiety to get well grew apace and I had
about given up in despair wnen i saw iu

I lost no time in getting to the nearest
drug store. There I paid fifty cents lor

restoring pills. Before 1 had flnistiea
taking half of the pills I began to feel re
lieved; the pains in my hips gradually
disappeared and for the first time in
many days, i leu as u mere wus bouiw

The new industrial and political aong
book. .
It contains 150 pages 7x9 inches size.
Splendid new words and new music. Pro
nounced by all incomparably superior to
any book that has yet appeared.
H. E Taubeneck says ot It: "It Is the benl
song book yet published. Introduce
it into every hoaeehold in the land. Onr local
campaign speaker aad committee ought to eee
tht. it haa the widest circulation."
Hartford City Arena: "Any glee elub supplied
with It will command th crowds."

Marshalltown (Iowa) Populist: "Should oe in

Prof. George D. Herron: "I believe your book
of songs will be of ImmeasnraDie anu uivine ser
vice in quickening and pervading the great move
ment for the social cnange wuicu iuu,....i.
Iteeif everywhere among the common people. H
will Inspire the people with courage and cheer ,
and fellowship in the great struggle that Is be
fore them,"
Prof W, M. Boss of Indiana, th great solo
singer of "The Van Bennett Nationals Team,"
suvs: "Have taken palus to run through the
work and pronounce It a grand collection ol
words and a high order of music."
The Farm Field and Fireside says: "It ha
been left to Mr. George Howard Gibson to intro
dnce anew tone into the xongs of ths party, and
to write a series of patriotic songs which are
hardlv surpassed by any In our literature for
loftiness of motive and real merit from a literary
point of view, while at the same time they are not
at all lacking In the musical quality which must
necessarily be present before any song toucne
the chord of popularity. They are remarkable
for their fervid patriotism and broad humanity.
In fact, if the People's party rises to the patriotic
level of these songs, we hav ilttla doubt of It
nltlmate success as a party. The ougs strlk
the whole octave of human sympathy. Kpark
liug humor, keen wit and biting sarcasm, as well
as the loftier patriotic themes, are touched la
turn by tit talented author."
