X5he Nebraska. Independent PAGE t OCTOBER 20, 190 . Emancipation of Woman Cincinnati, O., Oct. 16 In speaking on "woman b'uifrage," Mr. Herbert S. Uigelow said in part: "in 1848, when the first woman suf fragist convention was held, a New YorK editor assured his readers that such a proposal, if acted upon, would prove a "monstrous Injury to all man kind," and that "the order established at the creation of mankind and con tinued b.OOti years would be completely kronen up." Combating the right of women to speak in public, a Presbyterian preach er declared: "I believe the subject involves the honor of God." In 1880, when the Methodist confer ence in Cincinnati was asived to li cense a woman preacher, one brother sprang to his feet and cried;. "What wiiilnes what fanrm.-,nvwhat strange freaks will we ta?4n nexCr The conference dually resolved than '"Women hare al pe rights and privi leges in the Met I list church that are good for them.' v' In 1894, I beaU a professor, lecturing in a theologlca ' seminary on .woman's piace in the i irch, say : "Women may sing in yer meeting, play the piano or orgs, and if the meeting is not too publl they may offer prayer." This was tf? " attitude of men a gen- A At." Ik .J erauon sgo. r:wnair mey exuiaimeu, "Woman onl e platform!

O mV. . A . am 430,000 professional women in the United States. There are 1.000 law yers, 2,000 journalists, 3,000 clergymen 6,000 literary and scientific,. persons, 7,000 physicians, 8,000 government of ficials, 34,000 merchants, and 328,000 teachers and college professors. And women are gaining on men in almost ah the occupations, save, strange to say, those of domestic servants laun derers, milliners and saloonkeepers. And what of woman's political sta tus today? Full suffrage in four states of the union. School suffrage in eigh teen states. And some measure of polit ical right in twenty-three states. ; In the begininng of the . century, there was born in southern seas a new nation and one of mighty promise to the world. The United States of Aus tralia came into being and in the sec ond year of their national life, i they extended the federal suffrage to every woman In the realm. Nine years befor woman in the realm. v Nine years before, New Zealand had set tie example. Neither is the moth er country far behind In her recogni tion of woman's rights. . Indeed, so universal has been the progress of this able altogether to withstand IL-t -' All this has been done in the face of the most solemn warnings; in the face of all the prophets of calamity. ine heavens have not fallen. What harm has come? None, save the harm that has been done to the reputations of those who stood in the, way. But this is always so. The wise men of one generation become the fools of i-8 next, and ridicule of truth's apos ties turns to reverence, contumely to praise, in God 8 own time. 50.000 in Michigan Editor Independent: Tbat the Wat son and Tibbies electors will secure a large vote from democrats In 'Mich Igan is certain and yet there are thou sands of them who will simply scan their electoral ticket and vote for no presidential electors. We had 30,012 votes for governor in 1894 the high water mark. We confidently look for 60,000 this year for our electoral ticket . I am preparing our certificates to put our electoral ticket on the official bal I will gladly give any sick one a full dollari worth of my remedy to teist None else has ever tried so hard to remove-every possible excuse for doubt In clshty thoasand communities in more than a m'.llion homes my remedy is known- There are those all around you your iriends and neighbors, perhapswhose suffering it has relieved.

Of the 97 sick ones, some are bed-ridden, some are half sick, and fome are only dull and list less. But most oi the sickness comes from a common cause. The nerves are weak. Not the nerv a yon ordinarily think about not the nerves that govern your movements and your thoughts. ' - i ; But the nerves that, nnguided and unknown, night and dav. keep yout heat in motion con trol yoni digertive apparatus regulate iioujr; liver operate your kidneys.. t ' These are tbe nerves that wear ont and break , It doe's no pood to treat the ailing organ-wlte nlTUX heart the disordered liver the Tc i beftlous ToaNlj the deranced kidneys; They aranot to b1an)e.V.fio back to the neryes thatcontrol them. Th ere T5t!Ui find the scat There is nothing new abont this nothing any physician would Jispnte. "Hui it remained 'lor Dr. Shoop to apply this knowledge to put it to practical use. Dr. Shoop'a Restorative is the result of a quarter -century ' of endeavor along this very line. It, rioes not doae the or?an or deaden the pain .but it does go at once to, the nerve the inside nerve the power nerve and builds it up, and strengthens it and makes it Well.. - : , ' A' Bond of Sympathy ' The inside nerve system is plainly the most important system in the human body. Our lile rests on the action of the vital organs. While they work we live. When they stop we die. While they pcrtorm tneir amies properly we are wen. When tney penorm ineir amies poony we are III. Arid the vital or ;ans, each and every one, depend upon the Inside nervesystem, lor it not only regulates tnem ii operates ana controin tuem. , The worlc of the inside nerves is not only the most important it is the most laborious. For c ur other nerves are exrted -only at will. We think and talk and exercise only as we leel in clined, and when we are tired we rest. But the stomach, the heart, the liver, jhe kidneys, must constantly anrt conunousiy aay ana nigni Iresh or tired, perform their necessary duties. We have no way ot knowing even that they are tired or at fault save the weakening of the or gans they feupply. -. , , ; Many Ailments-One Cure I have called these the insids scrvc3 for sim nlicitv a sake. Their usual name is the "symna thetlc" nerves. Physicians call them by this name because they are so closely allied because eniJ is in och close srmpatny witn tne others. TsJ result is that when one brunch is allowed to be come impaired, the others weaken. That is why one kind of sickness leads into another. That is why cases become "complicated." For this oelicate nerve is the most sensitive part of the human system. But this strong bond of sympathy has a useful purpose. For it shows us clearly that all are branches oi one great system that If we make the system Btrong we strengthen every branch. This is why so many ailments can be cured by one form ot treatment. For almost all sickness is nerve sickness inside nerve sickness. Other kinds ol sickness, such as pnrely organic de rangements are extremely rare. And even they are frequently due to lack ol proper Inside nerve treatment. Does this not explain to you some of the un certainties of medicine is It not a good reason to your mind why otbei kinds of treatment may have tailed. . Don't you Fee that THIS i NF.W In medicine? That this is NOT tbe mere patchwork of a stim ulant the mere soothing ola narcotic? Don't you see that it goes right to the root ol tbe trouble and eradicates the cause? For Stomach Troubles The stomach is controlled by a delicate nerve called the solar plexus. Prize fighters, know that a blow over the stomach a solar plexus blow means a sure knock-out. For this erve is ten times as sensltivt as the pupil tt yonr eyf. Yet the solar plexus is only one of the centers of the great inside nerve the power nerve. It Is one 01 the master nerves. The stomach- is its slave. Practically all stomach trouble 1b nerve troube inside nerve trouble o!ar plexus trouble. Dr. Snoop's Restorative strengthen the inside nerves strengthens the solar plexus and the stomach trouble dissapeara. r For ISdney "'The kidneys i are' the blood" filters.' ' TlieV are operated solely by the inside nerves. The branch which operates them and retu.ates thim is called the renal plexus. When the renal plex us is weak or irrecu1,ar, the kidneys become clogged with the Very ftoifons tnt'y should.throw "oJi:A,4),kidney treatment caneclean ti.era out or care theizi-wt.pne stare leads into another untilater awbtla tut. jdnvs themselves be gin to break down and diaw'istvs.yefc J ftly. oneway to rea h the kidney tnmuic-hntri through the inide nerv s that control theuS which Ur. Shoop's Restorative alone strengthens and restores. . v- - .. s v- For K Liver liow The liver, likethe kidney, is aisoa biooM filter. It is regulated and controlled by a branch oi tin stomach nerve. Nine ont of ten suffer aU sonr time with livertroubie. The Inside nerv s wide! actuate it are delicate and sensitive. The sl ;h! est strain, such as over-eatin?, etc., i likely to weaken the nerves. The result U dullnet- and las.dtude and billiousness which bre other illness. Then take Dr. Shoop's Rfstor tive, a ew doses of which will sufficientlv strengthen the- control nerve to set the ailin organ right. Liver pills and cathartics Can giv no permanent reliei. No other remedy even claims to reach the inside nerv ,s. . For Heart Trouble Your heart beats more than ten thousand times a day. And every heart beat is an Impulse of the Inside nerve branch called the cardim plexus. The heart is a muscle, but it is Un nerve that makes the muscie do the work. Ax irretfularor wt ak bart is, almost in every in stance, the direct renlt of a weok or iiregnlur nerves-inside nerve. To cure hear trouble, re store the nerve to normal. Dr. Shoop's Restora tive will restore tha eardiac plexus, just, as it restores the so a plexus and therennl plexus. For all are equal parts o the great inside nen systcsa-4hc power nerves the njaster nerves. For Womanly Troubles Almost all ol the troubles that are peculiar to womam are caused by weakness of the inside nerves. There is no need to doctor or dose an ailing organ when it depends alone for its sup ply oi energy on the inside nerves. Inside nerve weakness ii not attended to will spread. The common name tor the inside nerver is the "Sympathetic nerves." E-ch center sin close sympathy with the other.and when one becomes deranged, general, w? aknt ss and derangement frequently ensue. Dr. Shoop's Restoraiivegem ly tones up the inside nerves and removes the cause oi weakness, permanently and forever. .For The Home . Keep Dr. Whoop's Restorative In the homo izainit the little troubles that so requcntlv arle. It is an emergency remedy, because ii goes direct to the seat ol most all forms of ill nessthe inside nerves. Chronic complaints start from little illnesses which could ave been easily checked in their eany si ages. Dr. Shoop's Restorative will brighten many a dull dny, will ireshen the spirits and increase the appetite. It Is not a cure-all. it d e not pretend to do miracles. It reaches only the inside nerves. Put these nerves s thoroughly control the vital lunctions thai most diseases will readily yield to it.
