Here is something reasonable, and
should interest Us all. DIR. Shoop'5 in
vestigations have shown that if the main
nerve of the arm or leg be severed, or if
constant pressure be applied to these
nerves, the muscles are paralyzed.
He has found that life and strength
depends on rer-re PolCer.
This is why "Blood Purifiers" give only
temporary relief. Certain nerves, he has
found, control the action of the stomach,
liver, kidneys and all Internal organs.
Dr. Sho0p's Restorative is n
stomach, liver and kidney cure, as it is
food and tonic to these nerves. It is not q
"Nervine.' Bread, meat, potatoes, etc,
are the blood makers, and when the digest
i've organs are weak, the blood supply
must also be weak. When these nerves
are weak, these organs fail. Is It not rea-
sonablel

HOW He CURES cATARRH.


The majority Of people do not realize the dan
ger OF catarrh, and 1t is only when the catarrh
has extended to the ear or to the bronchial tubes
and the lungs that they begin 10 treat H. Catarrh
Is the cause of 80 per cent of deafness, and this
loss of hearing might be avoided If the catarrh
had been treated in time. Even when there Is
complete loss Of hearing frequently 1t can be re-
stored if too much damage has not already been
done by the catarrhal Inflammation.

the grade and widening the track
so that now the start and finish are an

The reason for making this CHANGE
was to forever quiet the adverse criti-
clsm against the track on account of
the finish being lower than the start
while we recognize that these crit.
cisms came in the majority ofinstances
from persons interested in poor tracks
and that jealousy animated the talk
we decided, after consulting one of the
engineers of the Pennsylvania Rail-
road Company, to change the track
TO comply with all the requirements
as we saw an opportunity of widening
the track to the ample width of sixty.

= The Art of Cooking Ham.

do tell me how to cook a ham. {"
said an inexperienced housekeeper to a
friend who is noted for her culinary
knowledge. 81 have looked in four
cook books, and l can find nothing
plain and simple enough for my Biddy
to follow. They all assume that the
ham is boiled or half boiled when they
proceed to treat it in some elaborate
fashion, and have not an idea how to
begin even. have bought my ham
l know enough for that, and l know
what are the best hams in the market.
Now, begin and tell me just what to
do with it until it is ready to serve
cold on the table" 1T is very sim
pie, }" said her friend (quotes the New
York Iri5URe), but l know it as YOU
say; it is just the simple, obvious
knowledge that it is hardest to find
written rules for. First, soak your
ham all night in water, which should
cover it entirely. Then set it on the
fire to boil. The rule for boiling ham
is fifteen minutes to each pound, so
you can easy tell by weighing it the
exact length of time that will be neces-
sary to cook it. When it is half boiled
change the water, and to the last boil
ing add cupful of molasses. When it
is done set it to cool, and when it is
cold enough, skin it and put it in the
oven to bake until the whole is nicely
Drowned. Some people sprinkle it
before putting it in the oven with
brown sugar, which forms q sort of
glaze. This is the simplest way of
cooking a ham, and there is none bet
ter, in my estimation; and there are
lther sorts of facts about what will
give it various peculiar favors, and
many are the suggestions for the last
boiling. Some epioures cook it in
just at the last, others in
leer many lard it with cloves. An
I'D Southern cook once had had a
way of covering the whole ham after
t was skinned with a dough paste
made of -four and water, and then
putting it in the oven to bake. This,
he claimed, confined all the juices to
he ham, and the results she obtained
we're certainly delicious.

Ct competition. The rep1blican p6eey

national platform. The first conguees
that met, after the people had indorsed
that. the party passed an ironclad anti
trust bill which WAS signed by the re-
publican president who stood on tho
platform Of the Chicago convention.
That bill ID the law which has compelled
the Standard Oil trust to dissolve and
which has prevented q hundred different
organizations Of like purpose from form
ing. In 1888 other parties placed anti
trust laws in their platforms, but in
congress the members Of those parties
obstinately refused to support any meas

The argument made by the demo-
Gratis that reciprocity is virtually &C
knowledging free trade to be the cor
rect thing is as transparent as it is pre-
posterous after little study has been
given the subject. To do away with
our protective system would be erasing
the last vestige Of chance at reciproc-
ity. Without protection there could be
no basis Of concession and adjustment,
and our present means of securing good
terms in commercial treaties with for
eign countries would be entirely lost.
On the other hand while our protective
system is in vogue we can raise, lower
or abolish duties with views to extend
ing our trade, and thus are able to COM
mand what free trade country could
not attain. Reciprocity provides for
trade with those countries whose trade
is general benefit to our country and
exclude that from which we would de-
rive no benefit or concessions in return.

A PROMISE KEPT.
From the Kansas City. No.. Journal

From the Kansas City. No., journal
The republican party can well afford
to be proud of the fact that the oil
trust has at last decided to give up the
fight with the people, who were armed
with a law placed in their hands by that
party. It Is as clearly a republican VIC
tory as has been scored since tho eman-
cipation proclamation was issued. And
the people who reap the fruits OF that
victory win be grateful to the party that
achieved it. The action of the oil trust
in dissolving is significant, because it is
indicative OF what other organizations
will be compelled to do. 1t is the first
step in the decay Of the system OF
trusts which has risen and fourished
during the past two decades. The end
cannot be lar.
All Of which proves again for the
hundredth time the old political maxim
that when the people need anything
done, the republican party is tho party
Of action and the best servant OF the
people. In 1883 there was . feeling
among the people that the national
government ought to take steps to pre-
vent aggregations Of capital in the form
Of trusts from obstructing the natural
course Of commerce and throttling hon
