E.V. Wood, Of McKee's Rocks. Ale
gheny county, Pa, in speaking TO a
travelling man of Chamberlain's medi-
cines said: II recommend them above
all Others. l have used them myself and
know them TO be reliable. l always
guarantee them to my customers and
have never had bottle returned" Mr..
Wood had hardly finished speaking,
when a little girl came into the store
with an empty bottle. 1t was labeled
"Chamberlain'S Cream Balm" The
travelling man was interested, as there
was certainly a bottle coming back, but
waited to hear what the little girl said.
Ii was as follows: Mamma wants an
other bottle of that medicine; she says il
is the best medicine for rheumatism she
has ever used" 50 cent bottles for sale

CLOSING SCENES
In the Great Rhode leland Campaign
Both sides stiIl Claim They Will Win.

PROVIDENCE, X. l., April TO
night the last efforts were made to talk
over the voters of Rhode Island to the
beauties of either tariff reform or pro-
lection.
Regarding to-morrow's election, polit-
ical prophets are somewhat at sea as TO
the result. The most reliable .Republi-
can claim, coming from the workers
who are conVersant with details Of
affairs, is that there will be no election
for the State ticket; the Democrats will
have a slight plurality upon some OF the
nominees and the Legislature will be
solidly Republican in both branches.
The Democrats advanced no claim be-
yond saying that they will elect their
State ticket, but they appear very con-
tident
The new elements stirring iuto the
presentation are so diversified that cal
culations based upon preceding elections
are not regarded with much faith by
the leaders of either party.
Congressman Turner, of New York,
before leaving this city tonight re-
marked
ave Democrats take an immense inter
estin this fight, and will tell you what we
desire. If the Democratic State ticket
should secure a plurality of 5000 votes,
even though there should be no majority
election, aud the Legislature should be Re-
publican, we in Washington would be thor
oughly satisfied, and would consider it a
big victory. 1t would show US that this
State, despite the active campaign made
by the Republicans, Will, beyond doubt,
throw its electoral vote for Cleveland or
some man who is his legatee.'
In this view which is gen.
eral one among the Democrats, some OF
the Republicans think that their State
ticket should have received more fire.

by some of the out OF town speakers.

he has pursued with reference TO the vital
issues OF Tariff Reform and Honest Money;
his unscrupulous political methods in this
State since last November; his unseemly
and disgraceful efforts to obtain the Presi-
Dental nomination, and his continued and
contemptuous neglect of Senatorial duty,
have estranged from his support nine
tenths of the Democratic voters in the
State, and his nomination, or the nomina-

One of the Oldest little creatures in
all animal nature Is the "leaf ant" of
Central America. Although different
species of this oddity are known to in
habit the American continent from
Brazil to Mexico. the real home OF the
true leaf ant is in Nicaragua. TO all
outward appearances this little insect
is a common ant, but one Of gigantic
size. it must he admitted when COM
pared with the ants of our temperate
regions. being oH an average over an
an inch i'm length. The habit for
which these ants are SO cele-
brated, and one which We could
shartlly believe were it not for the tes-
timony of reputable naturalists. is
that of carrying Il leaf for a sunShade,
Just as our women and men carry
parasOIs and umbrellas for the same
purpose.
When at work the leaf carrying
ants look like little army in which
each individual member is protected
from the suns rays by little banner
of green. Another remarkable fact
! in connection with the leaf carrier is
that only those at work carry the
little leafy protection. When a long
! file OF burden bearers have deposited
their budgets they discard their
parasols and return for load with

conspicuous objects when on the ''up
