SCHOOL HOUSE WHERE THEY MET.


therefore sprang into being. But the pub
lie mind wants facts more in the concrete,
and it may now be taken as proved that
Ripon. Wis.,, was the place, March 20, 1854,
the time, and Mr.. A. e. Bovay the man
who devised the name.
The Kansas Nebraska act was not passed,
but it was plain that it soon would be, and
all the northern states were in a ferment.
The popular mind had settled down to the
belief that the Missouri compromise Of
1901 was sacred compact, even less liza
BILE to change or repeal than the constitu-
tion itself. The Whig party had been de-
stroyed, as one might say, by the election
of 1852, and only the Abolitionists main
tanned any formidable opposition to the
compromise measures. But all the Aboli-
tionists, nearly all the Wings and large
part of the Democrats earnestly opposed
the repeal of the compromise and reopen
ing of the slavery issue.
A call was published in the Ripon Her.
aid, signed by fifty-four citizens, of all par
ties, and meeting was held in the school
house. There was a hard struggle. Old
Wings hated to give up the old party
name, and old Democrats hated to affili-
ate with old Wings, but the thing was
done at last and the name Republican,
suggested by Mr.. Bovay, was adopted. 1t
was a wise suggestion. The Democrats
have always gained much strength by
their name. 1t means something definite
and plain to common minds. "Federalist"
had long been odious, and to Americans
generally "Whig" was meaningless. Gre
publican" had had a definite and toerably
uniform meaning for $500 years, and was
the honored title of the party which over.
threw the Federalists in 1900 and ruled the
United States for twentyfour years.
The principal organizers were A. e.
Bovay, Jededah Bowen, A. Loper, A.
Thomas and j. Woodruff, three Wings.
one Democrat and one Abolitionist or
Free Soiler. These were the committee,
but Mr.. Bovay was the active man. He
was born in Jefferson county, n. Y, July
IL, 1918, was graduated from Norwich (Vt.)
university in 1S41, and located in Ripon in
1850. He was teacher, lawyer and finally
soldier, attaining the rank of major in the
war for the union. From Ripon the
organization was extended through Wis
consin and northern Illinois, and on July
5, 1854 meeting of representative men at
the fremont House, Chicago, formally
adopted the name.

In the Nick OF Time.

The nick of time to stop the course of
bladder and kidney complaints is when the
organs concerned exhibit a tendency to grow
inactive. The healthful impulse toward ac-
tvity that they receive from Hostetters
Stomach Bitters rescues them from impend-
ing danger, and averts such dangerous
maladies as Brights disease and diabetes.
Suggishness of the kidneys increases a
liability to chronic rheumatism, gOut and
dropsy, and since the blood is filtered by
these organs in its passage through them,
the operation of the bitters serves doubly
happy purpose. The medicine acts without
exciting, like the fiery stimulents of COM
merce. Malarial, dyspeptic, cOnstipated
and nervous invaids are thoroughly relieved
by 1t. Since the advent of that shocking
malady, la grippe, it has been widely dem
Onstrating its usefulness as curative and
preventative of it.

rs cATARRH INcURABLE?
Answer No, and for the Following
Reasons.

The various kinds and modes of local
applications for catarrh, such as sprays,
| atomizers, douches, inhalants, fumigations,
creams, Ointments, lotions, gargles, etc., etc.,
have in many cases a soothing effect on the
infamed surfaces, and are sometimes useful
to assist cure; but neither Of them nor all
of them together ever did or ever will cure
a case of catarrh. These things may give
temporary relief, but it is useless to expect
cure OF them. Catarrh is not the local
disease, hence can not be cured by local
treatment. The only hope of success in the
permanent cure of case of chronic catarrh
is to devise some remedy that will stimulate
the nerves which supply the capillary blood
vessels. There is but one remedy that has
the most desirable effect, and that remedy is
Pe-ru-na. This remedy strikes at once at
the root of the catarrh by restoring to the
capillary vessels their healthy elasticity.
Pe-ru-na is not temporary palliative, but
a radical cure. Its action is necessarily
slow, but permanent.
The reason that there are any failures is
either because the catarrh is complicated by
some organic disease or the patient does not
take the medicine long enough. The major
ity of people expect to be cured in a week
or two of catarrh that has run for ten or
fifteen years. Such people are nearly
always disappointed. Pe-ru-na will cure a
recent case of acute catarrh in few days
or weeks, but when the disease becomes
chronic it takes longer. In no case should
anyone leave off taking Pe-ru-na until after
writing DIR. Hartman, as letter from him
is almost sure to point out the cause of the
failure.
valuable pamphlet Of thirty-two pages,
setting fortip In detail the treatment of
catarrh, coughs, colds, sore throat, bron-
chitis and consumption, in every phase of
the disease, will be sent free to any address
by The Pe-ru-na Drug Manufacturing CO.
