Cider That Sells for Champagne.

quart bottle which bore such marks of age
as would have made the mouth of an cpl

delight. The cork came out with mighty
pop, and fine spray filed the air with mist
and the aromatic fragrance of champagne
"Try glass of that" said the innkeeper,
as he filed two glasses with the sparkling
fluid. The tourist needed no urging

Grafton is gentle, but thorough, and
unattended with disagreeable effects,
such as nausea, gripping pains, etc.
Seigels Operating Pills are the best
family physic that has ever been discov-
cred. They cleanse the bowels from all
irritating substances, and leave them in
healthy condition.
The best remedy extant for the bane
of our lives-constipatio and sluggish
liver.
These Pills prevent fevers and all
kinds of sickness, by removing all pois-
onous matter from the bowels. They
operate briskly, yet mildly, without any
pain.
If you take a severe cold, and are
threatened with a fever, with pains in
the head, back, and limbs, one or two
doses of Se1geps Operating Pills will
break up the cold and prevent the fever
A coated tongue, with a brackish
taste, is caused by foul matter in the
stomach. A few doses of Seigel's
Operating Pills will cleanse the stom-
ach, remove the bad taste, and restore
the appetite, and with it bring good
health.
Oftentimes disease, or partially de-
cayed food, causes sickness, nausea and
diarrh@a. If the bowels are cleansed
from this impurity with a dose of
Seigel's Operating Pills, these disa-
greeable effects will vanish, and good
health will result.
Seigel's Operating Pills prevent
ill-efects from excess in eating or drink
ing. A good dose at bedtime renders

These Pills, being sugar-coated, are
pleasant to take. The disagreeable taste
common to most pills is obviated.

The Republicans had big jollifica-

had procession OF considerable di.

with delight as they marched through

was log cabin, on top of which sat
Uncle George Hickey holding coon.
In fact, the biggest part Of the process
sion was made up of "coons."
On the whole it was very credita-

to object to was leading Republican

Words Of Wisdom.

Gov. Hill, of New York, was seren.
AIDED at Albany, Thursday evening.
In his response he said: "Our success
in the gubernatorial contest is married
by the shadow OF national disaster.
In common with every true democrat,
greatly regret the defeat Of President
Cleveland 10 the state and nation. He
deserved better at the hands of the
people OF this country. Honest, brave
and courageous, he gallantly led his
party in great contest for tariff re-
form, and suffers defeat owing to false
clsmor, unjust prejudices, unfair rep,
resentations and the gigantic and
combined efforts Of all monopolists OF
the country. He did his duty as he
understood it, regardless Of personal
or political considerations, and he
should have been sustained by the
taxpayers, the consumers and masses
OF the people, whose true interests he
desires TO subserve, and whose rights
he unsellishly endeavored to maintain.
II Is not now necessary or profitable to
inquire whether the issue which he so
boldly made might not more wisely
have been earlier presented or post
poned to later period. II is sufficient
10 say that 40 the trusted leader Of the
democratic party, after free and care
inl consideration Of the whole subject,
he deemed that the best and truest in
terests OF the country required that
the issue should be made at this cri-
els, and with that patriotic and DELHI.
erSte conclusion, when once reached
there should have been prompt acqui-
escence.
The principle OF tariff reform has
only met with temporary defeat
sooner or later ii will ultimately tri.
umph in this country. President
Cleveland the democratic party were
right and deserved TO succeed. The
argument was With us and two weeks
longer discussion would have given us
the victory. and permit me to suggest
that there must be no back track
taken upon this question. The issue
30 courageously presented by Presi-
dent Cleveland in the interest u the
whole people must not he abandoned.

A single page in one issue OF the

poses, costs $500, in Harper's $3.50, in
