To secure normal and regular tissue change

This tissue metamorphoss consists in constant

ton. BRANDRETH's PILLS are the best sol
vent OF the products of disintegration of the
tissues and increase their astcity. They
are an Alternative and eliminative remedy, which
allay irritation and remove obstruction by aid
ing nature and are OF great benefit in cases of
temporary and habitual constipation, torpid
liver, billlousness. headache, indigestion, rheu-
matlsm and diseases arising from an impure
state of the blood
BRANDRETH's PILLS are purely vegetable,
absolutely harmless, and safe to take at any

MISCELLANEOUS.

The Union Mutual Life Insurance
Company during the month of October,
1893 wrote A LARGER AMOUNT OF
NEW BUSINESS THAN IN ANY COR
RESPONDING MONTH DURING THE
PAST TWENTY YEARS.
While the New Issues are so rapidly
increasing, it is equally worthy of note
that the Company's Death-rate shows
not only relative but an actual de-
cline; this factor SO all-important in the
transaction of a Life Insurance Business
is of such marked character, that a
few facts and figures in connection there
with are given.
The Notices of Death received by the
Company from January 1st to October
3lst, 1893, amounts to 1918, 1926 and when
compared with the corresponding period
of 1892 shows very substantial de-
crease, thus

To tie Editor Of the Dispatch:

To tie Editor OF the Dispatch:
My attention has been called to an ar
t.cle from your Washington correspond
emf IN the Dispatch OF the 7th instant
which Is calculated to do me an injustice.
IN that II has created the impression
among some of my friends that ! have
withdrawn from the contest for the post
mastership. The statement referred TO is
that the President remarked to Mr.. Wise
that he reckons "he viii have TO appoint
Mr.. Cullingworth. because he can't ind
any one to oppose him." Now, u the
President made such statement as this,
which is greatly doubted, he has been
misled by some one inimlcal TO my can
didacy before taking up the. papers for
examination: as he Will find when he does
so that my application has the indorse-
ment OF about 800 OF the most prominent
business and professional gentlemen OF
this city. including a majority Of the men,
bers of the Chamber OF Commerce.
Recognizing the sovereignty OF the
Presidents will in this matter, never
theless assert that my competitor cam
not be appointed for the reason stated.
and II appointed at all II will be done on
other grounds. The circumstances now
surrounding me make it more necessary
than ever that shall do all In my power
TO secure the appointment, and especially to
thwart any attempt by whomsoever made
TO create the impression that have with
drawn from the struggle.

To the Editor Of the Dispatch:
In Wednesdays Dispatch l noticed this
statement:
"rhe Prohlbitionists do not appear 10 be
discouraged by their overwhelming de-
feat in the recent election. and already
they are preparing TO take hand in
the next campaign. At a meeting Of the
Central Prohibition Club of this city. held
Monday night, Mr.. W. w. Gibbs, OF
Staunton, was appointed as State organ
izer with a salary of 81. 90 per annum ana
all expenses guaranteed.
As president Of the Central Club. let
me say that. as well as | remember. NOT
a word was said about engaging Mr..
Gibbs as state organizer, much les did
we fix upon the SALARY he was b receive.
The club has no power TO employ State
organizers nor did It meet for that pur-
pose.
Regarding our Overwhelming e'eat,"
wish simply to inform your readers that
with the exception of one county We were
comparatively unorsanized in the State.
and yet our vote was about three times
what Il was In the presidential election
a year before. G. NJ. SMlTHDEAL.
