Sockless Simpson.
Nashville American.

or all the great commoners who rode the high crest of the great pop ular wave in the late elections the most unique, the most picturesque, the most heroic figure of them all is MT. Jerry Simpson, the sockless Demosthenes of the State of Kansas, whose fiery phlllippics during the campaign were the delight of his friends, the terror of his enemies and the marvel of all. Mir. Simpson was called, hke Clncinnatus, from the plough, and he came with the soil of the cornfeld upon hIs garments and the seed of the hayfisld in his hair. The enemies of Mir. Simpson said of him that he carried his trousers pockets full of timothy with which to besprinkle his person before ad. dressing an audience, and tbat he exchanged clothes with one of his farm laborers before leaving home. This, however, was evidently a thing devised by the enemy; we are sure that MT. Simpson's dress, his appear ence and hts professions of poverty were sll genuine. However that may be, the people were with him. Against the rude but powerful elo auence of this hayseed orator the froth and vapor and empty declama tions of the blatant Kelly were but

The plan of issuing twice a week has proved very satisfactory to all THE REPUBLIc's readers. who find that they get the news earlier than Is possible by any other weekly paper, while paying only $l year. Another original feature of THE REPUBLIC is the publication of three special State edi- tions, which contain all the State news of Missouri, Illinois and Texas; thus relieving the General Edition of the mass of merely local news which us- ually loads the columns of other week lies, and making THE REPUBLIC the best general weekly in the country.

Tetter and BOils.

For years I was afflicted with an aggravated case of Tetter. I tried lotions, salves, soaps, and other out ward applications, without any ben eficial results. In addition to the Tetter, Boils commenced breaking out all over my body, causing me so much pain that I had to quit work and go to bed. I then decided that l had started wrong, and instead of using external treatment I ought to go to tho seat of the disease and purify my blood, as it was obviously bad blood that caused both the Tetter and the Boils. l took several purifiers without any good effects. About the time my case was declared incurable I com menced taking S. s. s. In 8 few weeks the Tetter was cured, and one by one the Boils disappeared, until l was entirely and permantly cured. This was three years ago, and since then l have been free from any skin eruptions. My skin is now, and has been for three years, as smooth as any one's, s. s. s. not only cured me of the Tetter and Boils, but also restored my appetite and general health, causing me to increase in weight and improve Tn every way.
