A Word to Campaign Committees.

A Word to Campaign Committees
Under the above caption the Hagerstown
Neacs, sterling Democratic paper, speaks
as follows 10 the campaign committees We
reprint 1t insthe hope that II will go to the
hearts of the same committees in our own
county to whom it is equally applicable,
and that the fruit Of the seed thus sown will
fully ripen on the 4th OF November next:
"On you devolves the most important
work OF the present political contest. With
out your active efforts and cooperation the
democratic canvass in this county will be
seriously injured. Do not allow yourselves
to be deceived into dangerous apathy. For
the sake OF the memory, the traditions, the
aims and achievements of your party, for
the sake of consistency to the principles you
profess for the sake of the benefit to your
selves, your families and your community
which will accrue from the triumph of those
principles, give portion of your time, your
intelligence and activity, from now until
the election, to the great struggle in which
we are engaged. gm
1t is part of the tactics of the republi-
cans to encourage and foster among demo-
Gratis the feeling of apathy above referred to
1t is so much water on their wheel. They
"-A SS'si oJhpothiAO "A1h any iuhC-
warm democrat who says she is out of
politics" or finds politics don't pay" or
that he has determined to devote himself
exclusively to his private business hereafter,
&c, &c. There will be no difficulty, for
such democrats, in finding hearty ap-
prevail OF their conduct-from republicans.
Hence, il they desire to act so as to please
their enemies, the above is the line of con-
duct to pursue.
But in all earnestness, we urge the men,
bers OF the campaign committees to resolve
to devote stated portion of their time TO
the purposes for which they were selected.
They were selected solely because of their
known reputation as active shrewd and in
huential democrats, and we feel sure that
the confidence reposed in them by their
party has not been misplaced.
There never was and never will be time
when their services are more needed, and
when they will be more fully and CRATE
FULLY appreciated by their party than the
present 1t is but short time from now
until November, and the fruits of victory
then, will thousand fold repay the tenn
porary Inconvenience, the small sacrifice
of time and inclination, and the trouble re-
quired to bring it about.
Hence we say to every democrat, espe-
cially to those who have warm personal, re-
publican friends, stick 10 your iriends--and
stick to your purity If you don't, you are
neither man nor democrat"

Every Woman Knows Them.

The human body is much like good

goes too slow or too fast, so follow all
the others, and bad time results; if one
organ or set of organs works imper-

81 all the organs is sure to follow.
Hence it is that the numerous ailments
which make woman's life miserable are
the direct issue of the abnormal action
of the uterine system. For all that
numerous class of symptoms-and
every woman knows them there is one
rpfailing remedy, DR.. Pierce's Favor
