Labor Day.

The Governor has issued the follow
ing proclamation:
STATE OF KANSAS, EXECUTIVE DEPART
MENT, TOPEKA. aug. IL, ls9O.-The Topeka
Trades and Labor Assembly asks that the
Several State Departments be closed on La
Dor day and that the National flag be IA sed
on the State House.
The object of the State federation of labor
is "a closer relationship between all
branches of organized labor in order that
equally Of right and privilege NAV be OBJ
tanned for wage work ars,' and 'to obta II an
eight hour work day, better general condi-
tions of labor and other needed industrial
and social reforms" 1t is hardly an exaggcr-
alton to say that the VIII lie people of Kan
saS are labOring men and women. Labor is
better paid and held in higher esteem in the
United States than in any other country,
and in no State is labor more honored than
in Kansas 1t is our lot and will be the lot
of our children Whatever can be done to
better the condition Of the laboring man
will tend to the elevation of our whole
people.
In view Of these facts, and in full sympa-
thy with ali leg timat" efforts of the worker
in all parts of our commonwealth, I, Lyman
U. Humphrey, Governor of the State of Kan
sas, do hereby proclaim and set apart Mon
day, September /, 1890, a. Ltbor day, and re-
spectfully recommend that the day be OBJ
served as a he lday, and that business be so
far suspended as to permit all persons who
may desire to participate in the public exer-
cises of the occasion.
In witness whereof have hereunto SUBJ
scribed my name and caused to be affixed
the great seal of the State. Done at the city
of Topeka, this, the IL II day of August, in
the year of our Lord one thousand eight
hundred and ninety.
Bv the Governor: LYMAN U. HUMPHREY.

The Use OF Ouinine.

There is no questioning the fact that qui-
nine is a valuable medicine as q tonic, anti.
periodic and anti-pyretic, and that its dis
covery has greatly helped the cause of med.
icine. Still in a majority of cases its use is
not altogether satisfactory as it frequently
deranges the system, producing headache,
dizzy feelings, commissions and sometimes
even paralysis. 1t was the endeavor of the
eminent DR.. John Bull of Louisville, KY. to
invent substitute for quinine, something
that would have all the good qualities of
quinine, and yet be entirely free from its
evil tende lcies. How admirably he sue
ceeded is evidenced by the estimation in
which his remedy Smiths Tonic Syrup is
held by the people; where it is best known
everybody uses it in place of quinine and it
never fails to give the very best of salts
faction. In cases Of chilis and fever it is
absolutely u safe and certain cure.
