TO THE MAN WHO THINKS.
NgkHOOK. yourself squarely in the face and see
fKD)J if you are not half ashamed to be without
Ivory Soap in your house. Worse than this,
your wife is without it. It is bad enough
for a man, though a man often doesn't care how
his comfort is mis-spelled. But a woman misses all
these little helps to housekeeping. And Ivory Soap
is one; its great potency makes it actually cheaper
than yellow soap for general work. It floats.

The party of Lincoln and Grant now
"tarts out on as ttiuiiipbant a cauvuss
us it over made under those leaders.
Tim platform which was framed in
Philadelphia last week will receive tlii
hearty assent of nil elements of the
party. Tho ticket which was nomi
nated will get a bit; majority of the
votes of tho country. The republican
party has tho prestige of many vic
tories Hotter than that, moreover, it
lias a policy which appeals to the favor
of nearly all right minded Americans.
The majority in tho eleetornl college in
1HU0 was ninety-livo. In 11)00 it will
probably go above the one hundred
mark.
In answer to a question as to tho de
feetion in the silver republican ranks
in Colorado, Senator Wolcott at t Tic
Philadelphia convention list week
said: "It is widespre-td. Thousand
of these men are now in tho same po
sition ns that of tho delegates-at-large
from tho state of Colorado. They re
alize the futility of the schemes pro
posetl by Mr. Urjan, and they are
opposed to the principles of his plat
foi in in nil other particulars as well.
They realize there is little or no
chance to secure the free coinage of
silver through the democratic party,
even if they desired that .should be
brought about. Many of themnteno
longer for the free coinage of silver by
this country alone. They have recon
sidered their, position. They have
seen the country grow prosperous, and
all the gloomy predictions made by tin
democrats disproved under a republi
can administration They have had it
proved to them that mo dull times
which preceded the election of 1SIM!
were not due to the lack of free coin
age, but to other conditions, many of
which were chargablo to tho democrat
ic administration of tho affairs of the
country."
sores and Ulcers
That old sore or ulcer, which I1.19 been a source of pain, v.orry and anxiety to you for
five or ten years maybe longer doesn't heal because you are not using the proper treat
ment, but are trying to cure it with salves and washes. While these are soothing and relieve
palu to 6ouie extent, no real, permanent good can come from their use, because the disease
is in llie Wood ana far beyond the reach of external applications.
A sore heals promptly when the blood is in good condition, but HOVOI if it is diseased. Tho
tendency of these old sores and ulcers is to grow worse, spreading and eating deeper into the flesh.

They nre a constant drain upon the system, gradually but surely ruin the health and sap the very life.
a person's capacity lor worn or pleasure is soon lost in tlie great tle.sire ana search tor soinetlting to cure.
S. S. S. makes a rapid and permanent cure of old sores and ulcers, and is the only medicine that
does, because no other can reach deep-seated blood troubles. Ordinary Sarsaparilla and potash mixtures
nre too weak and watery to overcome n deadly poison that has taken jrossession of the blood. Do not
waste valuable time experimenting with them.

In bis itddte.ss at tho opening of the
republican convention temporary
Chairman Wolcott ref cued to the ie
publican party as "united, proud of
its achievements for the past four
years, our country prosperous and
happy, with nothing to regret nnd
naught to niako us ashamed." That is
a correct description and sufliciont rea
son why tho orient gathering at Phila
delphia was a love feast.
Mr. Iiryan has frequently matU n
claim that ho received an unusually
large popular voto in 1SSKJ. Dccatise of
tho oft repeated assertions of this char
acter, many people have been deceived
into believing that Mr. liryan proved
an exceptionally strong candidate and
would have been president if tho pop
ular voto instead of tho electoral voto
hail determined the result. To cor
rect an impression so nt vnriance with
the facts it is only necessary to refer
to tho history of presidential elections.
Mr. F. 11. Clifford has compiled the
presidential vote, from tho lirst cam
paign of ilaeksoiriu 18121 to the election
of 1SS0. It will bo ti surprise to many
an ardent Hryanarehist to know that
the representative of tho sacred ratio
received the smallest per cent of the
popular vote of any democratic nomi
nee during the entire period. The de
feat of Greeley has always been con
sidered us tin- mi"l humiliating disas
ter to tho democratic party. Greeley
received 44 per cuiu of the pr.pular
vote. This record of Greeley was
eelitfeil u Hi :in in l.V,i(!. Mr. liryan
