IN Wisconsin there is always an cleo
ton pending. Last fall the presiden-
tial campaign made things lively; the
year before they elected eight con-
gressmen and members of the legisla-
ture, this spring they elected two judges
of the supreme court, and next fall they
elect full set of state officers, and
members of the legislature. So the
people never have rest from political
turmoil and excitement, and the pot is
always boiling

been analysing oleomargarine. with q
view to ascertain whether its use is in.
furious to health. In report submit.
ted to the New York Board of Health
he set forth the result of his investi.

oleomargarine is superior in every re.
spect to the poor grades of butter sold
in New York, that there is nothing OBJ
jectionable either in its material OF
manufacture, and it is. therefore,
wholesome, and he sees no necessity
for legislation in reference to its sale.

that only nations with a forced paper

Labor Saving.

The demand of the people for an
easy method of preparing Kidney
Wort has induced the proprietors, the
well known wholesale druggists, Wells,
Richardson & Co., of Burlington, VT,
to prepare it for sale in liquid form as
we'll as in dry form. 1t saves all the
labor of preparing, and as it is equally
efficient it is preferred by many per-
sons. Kidney Wort always and every
where proves itself a perfect remedy.

ANOTHER triumph Of the American
producer in England is, it appears, to
be reached in the expectation of oranges
from Florida. The London PaH Mall
Gazette states that a box of this fruit
was sent as an experiment from Jack
sonville, and although the voyage occu-
pied three weeks the oranges arrived in
good condition in London, and were
pronounced to be much finer in quality
than those from Spain and Portugal, to
which the English are accustomed.

No medicine is needed to keep the bowels in
order as long as natures cathartic, the bile flows
freely and regularly from Its source in the liver
and is of the right strength and quality. But the
great hillary gland is easily disordered, and the
consequences of its Irregularities are serious. Tc
bring it back to its natural condition when thus
affected, Hostetter's Stomach Bitters should be
taken at least twice day until the desired object
is obtained. Constipation is due to scant supply
of bile or to lack of the stimulating element in
that fluid. In either case mere purgation is use
less. The liver must be compelled to yield the
supply of bile necessary to remove the waste mat
ter from the system at least once in twenty-four
hours, before radical cure of costiveness can be
accomplished. Hostetter's Btters produces this
effect Its action upon the stomach and liver i
direct and salutary, and through these organs il
regulates and invigorates the whole frame.

of especial interest to women. One
recognizes the right of women in that
state to be appointed notaries public,
and the other declares unconstitutional
the act of the last legislature that was
intended to authorize the election of
women as county superintendent and
to other school offices. The act is
copy of the Illinois law, but Judge
Baldwin holds that it cannot be opera
tive in that state until the constitutional
provision which says only male citizens
shall hold county offices is annulled.

great benefit which a knowledge of
this truth would give to the world l be-
gan in modest way, to treat those af-
ficted and IL every case [ found the same
HAPPY RESULTS
which 1 had experienced. Not only
this but many, who We're not conscious
of any physical trouble but who, at my
suggestion, began the use of the remedy
which had saved my life, found their
health steadily improving and their
strength continually increasing. So
universal, where used. was this
true, that 1 determined the entire
world should share in its
results, and 1 therefore placed the
formula for its preparation in the
hands of Mr.. III. H. Warner. of Ro-
chester, N Y, gentleman whom I
had cured of severe kidney disease,
and who, by reason of his personal
worth, high standing and liberality in
endowning the, Astronomical Observa-
tory add other public enterprises, has
become known and popular to the en-
tire country. This gentleman at once
began the manufacture of the remedy
on a most extensive scale, and to-day
Warmers Kidney and Liver Cure, the
pure remedy that saved my life, is
known and used in all parts of the
continent.
81 am aware prejudice exists to-
ward proprietary medicines, and that
such prejudice is too often well
founded, but the value of a pure
remedy is no less because it
is proprietary medicine. A justi-
fable prejudice exists toward quack
doctors, but is it right that this preju-
aree extend towards all the doctors who
die earnestly apd intelligently trying
to do their duty? Because Manners
Safe Kidney and liver Cure saved my
life before it became proprietary
is it reasonable to suppose
that it will not cure others and keep
still more from sickness now that it is
sold with a government stamp on the
wrapper? Such theory would be
childish"

4 Friendly Horse.

SOME boys had placed in q field :
snare by which they hoped to catch :
rabbit. 1t was a sort of moose made Of
coarse, twisted grass. Edo. the dog,
put one of his fore-feet in the moose,
and in trying to got away his leg was
doubled up by it. He limped Oft howl.
ing to his friend Hero. an old horse
that was grazing near by. Fido lifted
up his leg, and Hero at once saw what
was the matter. But Hero had no knife
with which to cut the moose. What
could he do? He did not stay long 10
doubt. He put down bis head, andbe.
gan to gnaw at the moose. Taking
good care not to bite Fid0, he nibbled
at the wisp of twisted grass till it
dropped off, and the good dog was free.
You should have seen Fidq y he
scampered round, jumped up and
barked at his old friend. "Barked II
him" Yes; but it was all in play, y
much as to say. ~You dear old Hero!
How l thank you! l viii do - much

up his heels, but took good care NOT 70
