CHICAGO, Sept. I2.--The Times SAYS:
IL Is a carefully prepared document,
lucidly written, plausibly urged and,
far from conclusive In Its argument,
calculated TO strengthen him with his
party.
New YORK, Sept i2.-The Herald
says; The letter Is not strong; II Is
rather stale. No other Republican
could do better than Mr.. Harrison has
done, for the facts are on the Demo
cratic side and facts will tell In the
present canvass.
NEW YORK, Sept. l2.-The Sun says.
The letter lacks the ring and decision
noticed In President Cleveland's docu-
ment 1t contains few striking pas
sages.
LOUISVILLE, Ky, Sept. l2.--The
Courier Journal says: "Taking the let
ter as whole, II lacks earnestness,
vigor, directness and confidence; It
will not meet the doubts of the men
tired Of Blaines domination, for IL
shows Mr.. Harrison TO be O man weak
In will power and lacking In independ-
ent Judgment, twill not dissipate the
distrust Of the laboring men, FOR Mr..
Harrison cannot In q line rectify the
mistakes Of q lifetime"

Candidate Harrison has managed To

bacco. In his tariff arguments he is
disappointing. All he says has been

REST BEFORE EALING.
How sufferer from Nervous Prostra-
ton Found Relief


ton Found Relief.
Mr.. A. |. Root, suffering nervous
prostration from mental overwork,
finally found much relief by the easy
expedient of taking a nap each fore
noon or afternoon; and at last he be-
gan to observe that when these bits of
rest came just before meal-time he
could sit at the table without expert
encing the former symptoms of ex-
haustion, and digest food with less in
convenience. The remainder of the
story We quote in his own words from
GledHings IN Bee Culture.
"Then it occurred to me that DR..
Salisbury used to almost insist that
should never eat a meal without first
being rested tho ,oughly for twenty
minutes or half an hour on lounge
or bed He said it was far better to
have good sleep before eating; but if
| could not sleep, lie still without
sleep. My wife has urged this very
point for years; but | have usually
been so busy just before meal-time |
could not get around to it. For some
time back, however, ] have been TAX
ing just half an hours sleep before
dinner and supper; and if any sort OF
patent medicine had ever given me
such a lift in the way of health, it
would very likely have been doomed

If you want a man to do good piece

it was task for a weak constitution
to properly digest a m al Of victuals;
and he declared further that no con-
stitution could digest food properly
when it was exhausted and run down
to the very last notch; and if any one
attempts to get along in this way he
will sooner or later fad himself broken

alton:

to you impossible. and you are in
