Catarrh ICan,t be Cured

with local applications. as they cannot
reach the seat of the disease. Catarrh is
a blood or constitutional disease, and in
order to cure it you have to take internal
remedies. Halls Catarrh cure is taken
internally, and acts directly on the blood
and mucous surfaces. Halls Catarrh
Cure is no qusck medicine. 1t was pre-
scribed by one of the best physicians IN
this couutry for years; and is a regular
prescription. 1t is composed of the best
tonics known. combined with the best
blood purifiers, acting directly on The
mucous surfaces. The perfect combins-
ton of the TWO ingredients is what pro-
duces such wonderful results in curing
catarrh. Send for testimonials free.

LincoIn's Foster Mother.

Abraham Lincoln was s$,rea1 or eight
years old when his father, Thomas Lincoln,
removed from Kentucky to Indiana, where
in year or two his wife died. The year
following her death Mr.. Lincoln returned
TO Elizabethtown to search out, if possible,
a former neighbor and friend, Mrs. Sally
Johnston, whom, upon inquiry, he found
still a widow, and to whom he at once
made proposal of marriage
On entering Mrs. Johnstons humble
dwelling Mr.. Lincoln asked if she remem-
bered him
Yes" replied she, II remember you
very well, Tommy Lincoln. What has
brought you back to old kentucky"
well" said he, in answer, my wife
Nancy is dead.
why, you don't say sou
Yes" said Mr. Lincoln, "she died more
than year ago, and have come back to
Kentucky to look for another wife Do
you like me, Mrs. johnston
yes" replied Mrs. Johnston, Il like
you. Tommy Lincoln"
do you like me well enough to marry
met"
Yes" she answered, Il like you
Tommy Lincoln, and l like you well
enough to marry you, but l can't marry
you now"
why not." said he.
Because am in debt, and could never
think of burdening the man l marry with
debt; it would not be right"
"What are those debtst' said he
She told him Of the sums, which" said
she, Il have all down here in my account
book"
On looking it over, he saw that her debts
ranged from fifty cents to a dollar and a
quarter, and amounted in the gross to
something less than twelve dollars-not a
very startling sum even in those days of
small things.
He succeeded IN putting the little book
into his coat pocket without attracting her
attention and went out, looked up the va
rious parties and paid off all the little sums
according to the memorandum and re-
turned in the afternoon with the acknowl-
edgments of payments in full. On his re-
turning the account book to her, she ex-
claimed, ''Why, Tommy Lincoln, have you
gone and paid of all my debts"
Yes" he said, land will you marry me
now?"
Yes" said she, and they were married
the next morning at o'clock.-Mr. Hay

PIEDMONT, Oct. 20.
To ths Editor Oftts Register:
SIR:-It seems 10 me, and has all
through this canvass, that our Demo
cratic public speakers ara giving too
little attention TO what believe TO De
by far the greatest Issue or this cam
paign, namely, the Force bill. IL Is
true, tho tariff is great question,
but in the payment OF tariff taxes only
our money is lost; but II this Force bill
becomes law we will not only suffer
the Ills Of higher taxes, but
our ability to free ourselves from
these oppressive taxes Will
be entirely destroyed. The people OF
West Virginia have had fOretaste OF
these bitter realities in the old regis
tration, Then only the State had con-
troll Of the matter, and the people then
had some little show. One might be
able to 90 before the Board Of Regis
tratlon, prove his loyalty and get per-
mission TO vote, but under the Force
States officers; men whom we know not
will be brought into our counties to
conduct our elections for US; men APP
pointed for life and paid by the gov
eminent from fifteen TO twenty
dollars per day just for the pur-
pose Of keeping the Republican
party in power, and to give the manu-
facturers still greater opportunities TO
extOrt from the people exorbitant prices
for their products. Some time the peo-
pie will revolt against the oppressive
tariff and elect a Congress that will re-
wise it-that is, If they are left TO vote
their sentiments; but If the Republican
party succeeds in fastening the Force
bill on the people, then they will have
them in the net, and it will be impOsSi-
bic to extrlcate ourselves, and we would
be entirely at the mercy OF the leaders
and money sharks OF the Republican
party. Is it not, therefore, high time
ths people were waking up. We owe it
% ourselves 10 resist this encroachmeDt
on our liberty, especially we who are
poor and can leave our children no 9TH
or heritage, only a free government. We
owe IL 10 them TO see TO ii that we per-
nit no such unjust laws to become
enacted. 1 especially appeal to every
Democrat TO see to it that no effort is
spared TO bring out every Democratic
vote, and to accomplish this every Dem
ocrat must work, and work untiringly
from now till election day. Every man
should aud ought to be willing to
vote the last week Of the
campaign, working for the success Of
the party. Let every man see that his
neighbOr votes Do not leave one single
Democratic voter at home. Mr.. Edi
tor, urge it-urge il strongly upon our
speakers to tell the people fully all
about this Force bill, this menace of
their political liberty. The importance
OF its defeat cannot be estimated. II 1t is
enacted into law, It's repeal will cost
the people Of this country more blood
and treasure than it required to free
the slaves. Let US all, then, fellow
citizens, arouse to full realization Of
this matter, and work until this curse is
stamped TO earth. j. w. n.
