Beware of Ointments for Catarrh that
 Contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole sys- tenn when entering it through the mucous surfaces Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable phy- sians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly derive from them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co.,, Toledo, O., contains no mercury and Is taken internally, and acts directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Halls Oatarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken internally, and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney co.

Where Are We At?
tFor ne Hraldy

This question is being asked by the
newspapers and numerous persons.
We are Just where the republican press
and speakers said We would be, in 1892,
if Cleveland was elected and the dem
ocratic party attempted to carry out
their platform as adopted at Chicago.
They said THAT stagnation would re-
place the present activity that every.
where we would hear the story Of bust
ness curtailed, orders diminished,
factories reducing their output, every
body shortening sail and getting ready
for squalls; that the complete reversal
of the existing order Of things would
produce chaos in business.
The official democratic organ of this
state says The only comfort to be ex-
tracted out Of the present situation is,
that what YOU have not got you Will
not spend Just at present it is in
order to tell the man who has nothing
tina. he must economic. This is
poor consolation to give the working
man who is ia need Of the necessaries
Of life. Such Is boosted democratic
sympathy for the poor working
man.

assurance Of reliable market, and the
army Of the unemployed began to grow
less and less. The fact that the mum
