Groder's Botanic Dyspepsia Syrup,

with the best of satisfaction In my esti-
nation there is no preparation equals it
for the cure of Dyspepsia. One of its
extra qualities is that it gives almost
instant relief for all distress caused by food
or water. 1 have sold it to my customers
and in all cases it has proved its merits,
and 1 safely recommend it to any one
troubled with disordered stomach. No one
can help praising it after giving it trial.
Yours respectfully,

THE ROuTE TO CINCINNATL

The official route selected for dele
gates to the Cincinnati conference
from 50. Louis to Cincinnati is the o.
g. M road, which has guaranteed SUI
perior accommodations and decorated
cars at the reduced rates fixed by the
Central Traffic association. The
Western Passenger, the Transmits
souri, and the Trans. Continental as
sOCiations have refused to grant re-
duced rates, evidently for the pur-
pose Of diminishing the attendance
and il possible crippling the confer
enoe This refusal TO grant the Gus
tomary accommodation TO like con-
ventions Of other parties can only be
construed as evincing an unfriendly
spirit toward this movement In
view Of all the facts the Chicago Il
Alton road has been selected as the
official route from Kansas City to ST.
Louis, inssmuCh as the president of
that road has declared in favor OF
government control Of railways and a
two-cent per mile passenger rate.
In consequence Of the liberal policy
of that road il is now bOyCotted by
the plutocratlc roads Of Che east. II
is 10 be hoped that all delegates who
cam do so will concentrate at Kansas
City and purchase tickets over the
Alton road. The time of leaving
Kansas City will be announced at a
later date.
