may be relieved by few applications of
Chamberlain's Pain Balm; its continued
use will cure any case, no matter of how
long standing. 1t is equally beneficial
for lame back, pain in the side, pain in
the chest, lameness, and in all painful
affections requiring an external remedy.
A piece of flannel saturated with Pain
Balm and bound on over the seat of
pain is superior to any plaster. For

Why Don't Men Go To church,

Why Don't Men Go To church,
The pastor of leading Baptist church
in Philadelphia propounded this question
to his congregation, with the request for
an answer. OF course he received a
number of replies. but none of them
were very satisfactory, and were gener
ally in the line of stereotyped replies
heard in every locality, such as occupa-
ton, need the rest, etc. These do not
cover the ground at all, and the cause
must be sought for in other directions.
The Philadelphia Times correctly ex-
plains the case in the statement, "that
the majority do not go to church because
they are not so disposed" There may
be cause for this indisposition, but it
can not be ascertained by asking the
question, "Why don't men GO to
church," A field is opened for profita-
BILE discussion that may prove beneficial
to church goers, as well as the stay-at
homes.

THE idea of a strictly biennial session
plank in the Republican State platform
seems to be meeting with favor. Only six
or seven States now have annual sessions,
and surely Ohio is progressive enough
to not be the last to give up annual
sessions, especially since the adjourned
session is secured only by an evasion of
the constitution.

In spite of the fact that many improve
ments have been made, the River diviS-

at $500 per mile less than last year. 1t

Auditors to explain why this was done
The reduction will amount to several
thousand dollars in this county, and tax

about it.

AFTER all the discussion on the sub
ject and in spite CT the provision against
Sunday opening passed by Congress, the
Worlds Fair is to be open on Sunday
after May q. The buildings will be
closed but the grounds will be open, an
admission fee of twenty-five cents being
charged. 1t might appear to some
people that there is a good deal of
evasion in this.

THE making of the Republican State
ticket this year will probably consist en-
tirely of denominations. Each of the
present incumbents is serving his first
term and by every principle of party
usage is entitled to denomination. In
some quarters there has been disposi-
ton to shelve Lieut. Governor Harris,
but Mr.. Pursell, of Logan, the man
who thought he was especially fitted for
the place will in all probability find that
the people of the State are not rushing
to his support as the only man able to
fill the place. Lieut. Gov. Harris should
be and doubtless will be renominated
along with the others. He has proven
himself an able parliamentarian, and no
reproach can be cast on him in any way.
His denomination will certainly add
strength to the ticket, while not to re-
nominate him would certainly weaken it.

THE Democratic campaign orators
have howled that the Mckinley bill did
not give sufficient protection to the

by the Administration bill to give the

not had enough protection, will he be
helped by having no protection?

Averages.

On this basis, therefore, 46 cents to AZ
cents seems to be the highest price that
No. COS Tops may reach with free wool.
To arrive at such an average foreign
Tops need to advance only about cents
per pound and American Tops would
have to decline over SO cents per pound.
A decline of that magnitude in Tops
would involve very serious drop in the
price of American wool in the fleece, the
uncertainty as to which must act as a
menace to trade and must disturb values
until the cause of this disturbance is
removed.

AT the meeting of the Republican
National Committee in Louisville, last
week, resolution was introduced look
ing to different basis of representation
in National Conventions. 1t was pro-
posed to make the representation de-
pendent on the number of votes cast
for the Republican ticket. Now it de-
pends on congressional representation.
The effect of the resolution would be to
decrease the number of delegates from
the South and to increase those from the
North. 1t is claimed in its favor that
the States that elect the President should
have the greater weight in determining
who he shall be. The settlement of the
question was postponed until future
meeting.

Growers order shutting out the office
seekers from a view of or interview with
his august corpulentcy may make times
a little pleasanter for Grover, but had
it been suspected last fall that such
orders would have been issued, Mr.
Cleveland would doubtless have been
spared the trouble of considering de-
mands for position. These men that are
now shut out doors and told to go home
are the ones that did the yelling and the
hustling last fall. Cleveland treats
them as though they were thieves, while
they are only clamoring for the reward
