tioti (hiring the coming campaign.
The Amcricnn iicopln mo utinniiuotis
in behalf of Directive legislation, tuul
Congress is pledged to enact it at tho
short session.
In 1895 wo couldn't afford to buy oven
cheap foreign goods, and tbo democra
tic revonuo, under its low tariff, only
amounted to $131,818,530. Last year
tho ropublican protective tariff realized
200,128,481.
Tbo United States new has a domain
nearly tbrco times greater in area tban
when it bocamo a nation. Wo bavo
bcon expanding all tbo timo, and most
of it was added by tho party now op
posing expansion.
In 1890, President McKinley said:
"I hope that tbo tinio will not bo far
distant when every workingman in
this country can get work, and get.it,
too, at fair nnd remunerative wages."
The time was not far distant, and it is
still with us.
Thi policy of expansion, which gives
us n foothold in the e.tst, which will
open a now niatkot in the Philippines,
and enable us to increase our cuintiici cu
with China, will bo of great benefit to
all our people, ami more especially to
fanners ami wage earners.
The prosperity upon which tho re
publican party mainly relies for vie
tory is tho genuine article. It is tin
examplcd in tho history of this or any
other country. It is so groat and all
pervading that tho calamity bowlers of
1806 have lapsed into silence. Wash
ington Post.
Tho Treasurer of the United States
gives figures showing that this country
borrows money at a lower rato than
any othor nation, and '.hat "money is
cheaper with us than anjwhero else
among men." It means much to say
in connection with this statement that
every dollar Issued by tho United
States is equivalent to gold.
A soldier writing from tho Philip
pines to his mother in Ohio, says. "If
some of those traitors in the United
States had kept their mouths shut we
would have had them (tho Filipino.-)
whipped long ago. Anyono that up
hoi Is anti-expansion is no better than
an insurrector " This confirms other
similar reports of tbo democratic sup
pjrt given to Agtiinaldo.
Tho coming year promises to bo tho
best in tho history of tho Navy I)e
partment, so far as tho construction of
new ships is concerned, Work is al
ready under way to increaso tbo navy,
in accordance with tho recent legisla
tion on tbo subject. Five battlo-ships,
costing noarly $5,000,000 each, six
great armored cruisors of 14,500 tons
displacement aud high speed, three
protected cruisers, similar in design to
tho Olympia, and five subuiarluo boats
represent tho programme which tho
Navy Departniout now, has to disposo
of, aud to ask bids on. Every ouo of
theso craft will bo built at private
yards.
If you need a manager to look after
your affairs, run your business and
handlo it successfully, the place to
find him is around tho shady side of
almost any of tbo stores about town.
You will hnd him there, telling about
bow somebody else's business ought to
bo run to make it go, and robearslng
all tho gossip that is rife about town,
and doing many other little things that
aro so useful to tbo people generally.
Usually a visit to bis homo will reveal
bis wifo at the w. bh tub or wood pile,
tho fences down aud tho place out of
repair In general. This is a picture of
what cau bo scon at almost any time
aud at nil seasons of the year.

The Marriage Problem
"How to be happy though married," has
been entirely solved to the satisfaction
of hundreds of thousands of women.
There can be no happiness without
health. The general health of woman
is dependent on the local health of the
delicate womanly organs. When there
are debilitating drains, or inflammation,
ulceration or female weakness, happiness
in marriage is practically impossible. A
host of happy wives testify that the
secret of happiness in marriage is found
in the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription. It dries the drains, heals ul
ceration and inflammation and cures fe
male weakness. It inal:s weak women
strong, sick women well.
Mrs. Anna Willy. (Michigan House), North
llle. Spink Co., S. IlU . nrlte: "I am enjoy
trie rcxxI health, thanks to jour Urn! acHlcc and
valunhlc rrmrdlc. I MitTcrnl cry much nith
female tcaluut-. nnd other ailments for more
than two enr. when I wrote to yon for advice.

dcirradine and destructive of all diseases,
The first sore or ulcer is followed by little red pimples on the body, mouth and throat become sore, tho
glands enlarge and inflame, copper colored splotches appear, and hair and eyebrows fall out. These are
some of the milder symptoms ; they increase in severity, finally attacking the vital organs ; the body it
tortured with rheumatic pains and cocrcd with offensive eating sores.
It is a peculiar poison, and so highly contagious that an innocent person handling the same articles
used by one infected with this loathsome disease, may be inoculated with the virus. It can be transmitted
from parent to child, appearing as the same disease or in a modified form like Eczema or Scrofub.
Many an old sore or stubborn skin trouble appearing in middle life, is due and traceable to blood
poison contracted lit early life. You may have taken potash and mercury faithfully for two or three years
and thought you were cured, but you were not, for these poisonous minerals never cure this disease ; they
drive it from the outside, but it is doing its work on the inside, and will show up again sooner or later,
You may not recognize it as the same old taint, but it is. S. S. S. has cured thousands of cases of
Contagious Blood Poison, and it will cure you. It is the only purely- vegetable blood purifier known,
and the only antidote for this poison. S. S. S. cleanses the blood thoroughly of every particle of tho
poison there is never any return of the discue.
