A Good Medicine Which Every Family
Should be Provided With.

There is no medicine so often needed
in every household as good reliable
liniment such as Chamberlain's Pain
Balm. Hardly week passes but some
member of the family has need OF it
for some ailmcnt. A toothache or
headache may be cured by it. A touch
of rheumatism or neuralgia Quoted.
The severe pain of a burn or scald
promptly relieved, and the sore healed
in much less time than when medicine
has to be sent for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before inflammation
sets in, which insurcs a cure in about
ono third of the time otherwise re-
CURED. Cuts and bruises should re-
ceive immediate treatment before the
parts become SWOLLEN, which can only
be done when the Pain Balm is kept on
hand. A sore throat may be cured be-
fore it becomes serious. A trouble.
some corn may be removed by apply
ing il twice day for week or two.
Quinsey and glanduiar swellings may
be suppressed before matter has begun

result of an injury and may be prevent

able time saved A pain in the side or

bill. When SO much pain and suffering
may be saved by the trivial outlay OF
fifty cents. il is certainly surprising that
any family would do without such
remedy. The fact is, few of those who
have used ChaMberiains Pain Balm are
willing TO be without IL.
A Kansas City travelling man says
Chamhellain's Pain Balm enables him
to earn $1,000 per year. II cured him

REGARDING the reforms which
Burdick proposes in his weekly pro-
nouncinmentos no difference can
arise between the men who want
Burdick and the men who want
White. The only question is as to
men TO put reforms into operation.
The most of the voters Of Clay conn-
" will have to be convinced that
Docks whole political system has
been renovated before they can be-
lieye in his pretensions. He went
to the legislature from this county
once. What did he do? Made his
whole eight TO remove the capital
from easy reach Of the people here
TO the extreme northern part Of the
territory against the interests Of the
Of twp-thirds Of Dakota and in the
interest Of the Northern Pacific rail-
road company. This was his first
attempt Of controlling railroads.
He controlled the Northern Pacific
the Same way the old man controll-
ed the PUPPY inserting his nose
in his mouth. He didn't need to
be sober all the time with only this
10 do, and he has never been accus-
ed Of having been so even small
portion Of the time. Three differ
emit bills for the same purpose were
sent him from here to be introduced
two Of them he lost and the third
he forgot to introduce. He got a
small appropriation from the legis-
lature for the university. We will
give him credit for that, though
though parties who are acquainted
with the facts are free TO admit that
but for Inmans efforts the bill new
er would have been passed. After
having put in winter with ''the
boys" for which he was paid $40,
Dock came home and erected two
new brick blocks, put in $500
printing outfit and spent $500 to
elect himself mayor Of this city
against the sentiment Of the better
class Of citizens. While member
Of the Legislature he rode on passes
and had plenty Of them for his
friends. Since then he has always
ridden on passes. Only q few weeks
since he applied for q pass for a
member Of his family, which he did
not get owing to the commerce law
Theseare plain statements which
Rur,lick has never retuted. When
he clears his own skirts and makes
the first serious, truthful charge
against White it will be time enough
for voters TO swallow the doses he
administers. When the devil goes
masquerading 40 saint he may
achieve temporary success, but the
cloak will be removed sooner or la
ter, snd Burdick will manage to
drop his wad some time before cleo
ton. He Is given to doing just such
things. - He,1nillion Plain Tall.

some Of the Gyatkie's figures down to the present
dded by the present writer
much indebted Cor its remarkable growth in circu
Of the other Chicago dailies to the blanket
sheet style Of journalism OF all the people in
America the average Chicagoan is most in hurry
and least inclined to wade through columns Of
verbiage and stuff The DAILY News is the only
Chicago daily that has the facilities for giving all
the news, and at the same time the good sense to
present it in concise form. The result Of such
condition Of affairs is that THE DAILY News prints
more papers than all the other Chicago dailes
combined.
In considering all the causes which have
entered into and produced so phenomenal jour-
nalistic growth the most important one unques-
tionaby has been the controlling conviction Of It's
managers that the "chcap paper should be cheap
only in price; that its news should be as fresh and
complete, its editorial discussion as able and its
general tone and character as pure and heathfnl
as its best and highest priced contemporary. All
this the cheap paper" may easily be even at its
reduced price.
The difference Of revenue between the two
cent paper (even more so when the price is one
cent? and the highcr-priced blanket sheet," the
latter throws away in useless and unasked fqts
size, that not only is Of no worth to Che readcr,s
but is even an annoyance in that it compels him
to gleam what is Of real news interest from mass
o. verbiage and worthless implication.
1T is because its managers have been wise
enough to practically recognize these essential
elements Of the best American journalism of to-
day that THE DAILY News is the best and most
popular general family newspaper published in
Chicago or the West"
Mt of merit could be framed in stronger terms than
is not the achievement now that such journal as
