fering with sore eyes to learn that
DR.. Geo. Allen, the celebrated Eye

Allen does not come among us as
some adventurer maxim big splurge
and claiming to cure the lame, the
blind, the halt, and all the diseases
flesh is heir to, but comes quietly
with well established reputation
as Il physician, and has been Won
derfully successful in treating that
organ. Several we'll known citizens
of our county, who suffered
untold misery and pain, with SORE
eyes, some Of them going to Chicago
and other points to be treated by
the celebrated eye doctors ofthe land
alto no avail, finally went to DR.
Allen, who cured them radically ant
permanently. Judge Blair, and Ma
rion Pace, two Of these citizens, cal
testify to these statements. We be
lieve that If DIR. Allen tells you h

permanently and effectually. He ]
no travelling doctor and his visit her
is made specially to his friend
Judge Blair and Mr.. Pace, but
willing at any and all times to n
, lieve suffering, and hence concludes
to take rooms at the Merchants He
tel and stop with US a few weeks f
that purpose.

POLITICAL meetings; what good do
they do? is question often asked and
never satisfactorily answered. There
is pleasure in Oratory, and people
like to hear good speech whether
they agree with the orator or not, but
how much truthful knowledge do they
have added to their stock of informa-
ton? One affirms the other denies, one
says this is the only road to safety
while the other says that it is the road
that leads to destruction how can a
man who is compelled to decide be-
tween these two, come to a conclusion.
The questions of government are quest
ions of great moment, and should be
decided on with deliberate and thought
full judgement. Forum ately, the peO-
pie are not so dependent on the politi-
cal leaders now as in the earlier days
of the nation, when the newspaper
was scarcely known. With the multi
plicatiOn of newspapers they have
become more Independent and les:
partizan, and people can form theil
opinions more correctly through the
intervening months rather than the
weeks just proceeding the election
But the masses still feel they must b.
