THE MORAL or IN.

We may moralze as much as we
please about pain; but the fact is,
that we don't like it while it lasts,
and that we want.to get rid Of it as
soon as We can. Whether caused by
rheumatism, govt, disordered liver,
weak nerves, irregular kidneys, bad
blood, or anything else that is Just
the reverse Of what it Should be, the
sooner it is out Of the system the
happier we are Whether pain is
the result Of imprudence or of acct
dent, or is sent as a punishment for
Our sins, may be nicequestion for
the philosophers to argue; but peo-
pie who are suffering want first to be
rid OF the pain, after which those
who are fond ofargument may argue
the matter to their hearts content.
Above all theory, argument, and
philosophy, comes1he delightful fact
that Browns IRON BITTERs drives
pain away. Sufferers run no risk in
trying this medicine, the only COM
pound containing iron which.carries
no mischiefwith It. Those who have
used it will tell you so; and you can
try for yourself by buying a bottle
Of the nearest druggist.

One OF the reasons why Hancock should
be nominated next year is that more than
any other man be can bring out the full
Democratic vote Of the country. This fact
Was demonstrated in 1880. His vote In
New York was within SUI Of Clevsland'6
vote last year when the latter carried the
State by 100000 msjari,y and It was 1862
larger than Nlden's vote. In Ohio Hancock
received 10, l23 more votes than Hayes and
II, 637 mora votes than Tilden. In Penn.
sylyania Hancock received 23,306 more
votes than Hayes and 4l270 more votes
than Tlden. In Indiana Hancock re-
Gsivpd 7,5l7 moresvotes than Hayes and
1902 more votes tEau Tilden, In Illinois
Hancock received sol more votes than
Hayes and 1920 more votes than Tilden.
And so in nearly all the Northern States.
1t is the Democratic vote in the Norther
States that will elect the Democratic
candidate or defeat him, and hence the
vital importance Of nominating the man
who is strongest in these States. And this
man is Hancock. His total vote was
los, 25S larger than Tilden's and 402, lS5
more than Hayes. Hancock was defeated
by a tricky free trade platform that was
used against him with fatal effect on the
eve Of the election. Time has proved that
Hancock is completely in accord with the
anti.fIee trade sentiment Of the country
and OF the Democratic party and his cleo
ZION, il he be nominated, will bs foregone
conclusion. The free Traders have been
