ElRemember that with feeble infants who do no
thrive on their mothers milk or the best prepared
foods in the market, WE REQU JEST NO CHANGE
OF FOOD, but add or more drops four times
daily of Murdock's Liquid Food, and you Will hnd
that their lost or needed vitality will be restored
to them in less than thirty days.
Not case of Cholera lnfantum known Wnefe
Murdocks Liquid Food has been used, nor death
from Cholera Infantum where it has been pre-
scribed by physician.
The question often asked-how does Murdock's
Liquid Food compare with other Foods and ION
les? We refer to the State Inspector of Foods for
Massachusetts, in his annual report for 1886.
Murdock's Liquid Food contains 14.10 per cent
of albumen; all the other foods do not contain
any, Common food does not contain over one per
cent that is available.
1t contains less organic matter than common
food and common food contains 1886; the other
preparations from 20. so to co. so per cent.
1t contains 40 of ash, which is indigeStible
matter The others contain from $50 to 23.74
per cent.
I'm alcoholic extracts 10y. The other prep
a!ations are all TONICS, as they contain from
2p.13 to 56.13 per cent
These facts show why Murdocks Liquid Food
excelS all other foods and preparations In making
new blood and cleansing the system of disease.
A tablespoonful four times day will make 10
rounds new blood monthly, and the system con-
tains "a to % pounds.

continued Mr.. Reed, Hupon broad and
comprehensive platform, and II I don't
get the nomination it won't be because
I'm not willing to give satisfaction to
people OF all colors, races, religious and
political views. I believe in giving every
man equal rights and fair show; be-
lieve that it is the duty of congress to
pass judicious silver bill, and am in IA
vor of revision of the tariff which shall
give capital and labor employed in the
manufacturing industries Of the country,
and at the same time place the luxuries
as well as the necessaries of life within
the reach of all. I believe that every
man, woman and child should receive a
pension who is entitled to it; that every
just claim upon the government should
be promptly and fully paid with interest
to date; that sectional strife should be
smothered In fraternal love, and that the
dead issues OF the war should be decently
buried at government expense. I am in
favor of applying the principles of civil
service reform to all the officers of the
government, so as to give the entire sat
isfaction to those who are in as well as
those who are out; and that all legisla-
ton intended to promote the pros
perity of the country should be
promptly enacted by congress. On the
labor question I ALI as sound as an oak
saw log, and urge upon congress the pas
sage Of bill that will forever settle and
put at rest all controversies between en-
ployer and employed. I believe that
the surplus in the treasury should re-
main unimpaired so far as is consistent
with the financial welfare of the country,
and that congress should take such ac-
ton in reference to the finances
as will bring the greatest good
to the greatest number. I hold it to
be the duty of the president to protect
the prerogatives of his Office, to hand
them down unstained to his successor,
done up in tissue paper or silk hand
kerchief, and further desire to say that
if I have omitted to declare my position
on any interest representing consider
able number of votes, it shall be my
earnest endeavor to amend or enlarge my
platform accordingly. The motto on
my escutcheon is, 4 strive to please,
and my aim is to merit the appro-
baton and secure the support of
the republicans, democrats and mug
wumps. I desire to be considered a
purely bipartisan candidate, and would
prefer that my domination and election

IN THE RACE.

Congressman Reed a Candidate for the
Presidency-A Broad and Comprehen-
sive Platform.
Not long ago the correspondent of a
New England newspaper called public
attention to the fact that the most avail
able man for the republican presidential
nomination in 1883 were Congressman
Reed of Maine, Hiscock of New York,
and Long of Massachusetts,. Gas soon
as we saw this" says Mr.. Reed, along
and I assembled ourselves together, held
caucus, and agreed that the announce
ment, SO far as we are concerned, was
both timely and judicious, but we de-
cided bv unanimous vote that Hiscock
was not available, for reasons that must
suggest themselves to every thoughtful
and patriotic man. This action having
narrowed down to Long and myself, I
suggested, with the kindest and most
disinterested motive, that for the sake of
harmony he ought to withdraw. He de-
INJURED to the proposition, and did not
appear to take much interest in it until
I offered to make it an object to him and
volunteered to pay him SIS in lawful
money if he would agree to retire in my
favor and make speech nominating me
in the presidential convention. He re-
piled that he was not SIS man; where
upon raised him to So. If theye is
anything dispise it is avaris I'm
not man to let few dollars stahd in
the way Of harmony, SO when he refused
my second proposition I asked him how
much he would take. He replied that
he would not withdraw from the canvass
and make the speech for less than $15,
and was willing to let me write it or sub
init it for my approval This was pretty
steep as Long hasn't the slightest chance
of getting the nomination, and isn't much
of speaker, but I came to his terms and
offered to pay SIS down, and the balance
the day after received the nomination
Long said he never did take contingent
fee and never would, SO there the matter
hangs. If he won't agree to share the
risk he can't have any Of the peaches"

Amusing Experiences of the Popular Ora
tor Related by Himself.
Philadelphia Times.
The late John B. Cough told a story
as well in private as in public. The fol
lowing are remembered among some of
the experiences he used to relate: "On
one OCCASION" he said, 81 had made an
appointment in small town in Massa-
chusetts and rode seven miles to fill it.
On arriving at the church as the people
were assembling found no one to re-
ceive me. I asked middle aged rustic
if he could tell me where could find the
president of the temperance society.
az reckon I'm him. he replied lacon-
ically.
"'Ah! well, my name is Cough I
said.
"'Wal, 1 calkilate its abaout time to
skin in
I'm we went and sat in pew until
he came to me and said: 4 guess it's
time to begin
"Is there any one to offer prayer?' I
asked
"'No; the parsons away
ISIS there no deacon?'
"I 'spect I'm deacon
"'Well, can't you pray?'
".No; reckon never speak in meet
in
Gas passed into the pulpit he stood
beneath it and called out to the audience:
Mr.. Cough is in the desk an he's gwine
to lectur'.'
81 proceeded to 'lectur' as well as I
could, and when had finished and taken
my seat at the back of the platform my
agricultural friend called out from below:
we will now purceed to take up col
lection for the benefit of the lectoorer.'
He then 'purceeded' to pass his hat around
among the people, who had begun to
rapidly leave the church as soon as they
heard the ominous word collection. When
he had completed this task he dumped
upon the table in front of the pulpit the
contents of his tile and shaking the lin
ing, said to me: Thar! That ere is all
fur you, I amt a-gwine to take nothin'
out fur the lights
1hO ok4OudU Olo uOt cACttu W.
"I do not want it said.
"'Wall, swon! Yer don't want all
that money!
"sNo.'
"'Wall, then, reckon I'll take it, and
suiting the action to the word he swept
the money into his hat, placed it on his
head, and walked off without another
word leaving me to enjoy hearty |
laugh as the only recompense for my
nights work.
''In one of the first towns in which I |
spoke outside of Worcester I labored for
three evenings, and was told by the COM
mittee at the conclusion of my last ad-
dress that they had no fund in the
treasury and did not like to take up
but if I would come again and
give three more lectures I would be
literally paid consented, and shortly
afterward began my other course of three
lectures. At the termination of the Sec
ond one gentleman arose and said that
as Mr.. Cough had not been paid on the
occassion of his previous visit to that
town he suggested that collection be
taken up for the purpose of remunerating
him.
Western Kansas world., 1886-03-27

Judge Terrence, of Minnesota, relates
with pride that when he stood at the
death bed of his mother, she took his
left hand, felt it, and said: "Give me
the other hand, my son." And as she
felt it with the two shortened fingers shot
away in battle she mumured: "That's
the one I want" raised it to her lips, and
soon after sank to rest.
