DO You Want a Boot.jack7

Chapman, the tobaccouist at Seventh and
Orange streets, has boot-jack which he is
giving away. There are beautiful nickle
plated boot-jacks, not only well adapted for
drawinga boot, but for throwing at cats
that persist in holding midnight concerts on
the back yard fence. But there is a condi-
tion upon which these boot-jacks are given
away. A certain number of tags aIe put in
as many packages of tobacco and the person
purchasing the package containing tag,
gets boot jack. A certain number Of
packages cannot fail to produce the desired
boot jack. Now all who hBve been freUted
into bad humor over taking off tight boots
should lose no time in going to Chapmau's
and getting one of his beautiful nickel plated
boot-jacks, in the masner prescribed.

longer delay in seeking the proper remedy for
your complaint You may be in the first

against you; when no angel of mercy can
bring you relief In no case has the Doctor
failed of success. Then let not despair work
itself upon your imagination, but avail your
self of the beneficial results of his treatment

Mr.. Long was a good enough Republican a

by Republicans, it strikes me he cannot
have become in so short a time good
enough Democrat to be acceptable to PreSi-

under Democratic administration.
