The reader of this paper will be pleased to
learn that there is at least one dreaded dis
ease that science has been able to cure in all
its stages, and that is Catarrh. Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure known
to the medical fraternity. Catarrh being a
constitutional disease, requires a constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure is
taken internally, acting directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces of the system,
thereby destroying the foundation of the
disease, and giving the patient strength by
building up the constitution and assisting
nature in doing its work. The proprietors
have so much faith in its curative powers,
that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any
case that it fails to cure. Send for list OF
testimonials.

THE democrats of Fulton county, at
Wauseon last Monday, nominated
Judge Handy for Probate Judge, to
make the race against the present in
cumbent, Judge Hamm. While this
lis high complimenttoJ to Judge Handy,
1t must certainly be a sacrifice upon
his part, if'he should be elected, land
he certainly will be), as he could COM
mand many times over the salary of
Probate Judge in the practice of his
profession. But the Judge has been
called to duty by his party, and being
the true democrat that he is, accepts
the sacrifice and will make the race to
victory on the 7th day of the coming
November. Hurrah for Judge Handy
and the fighting democracy of Fulton
county.

wait for the Big show.

A manager who -expends thousands
of dollars In order that nothing will be
neglected that might add to the enjoy
ment of his patrons certainly deserves
success, and, as rule. generally gets
it, If the public would endeavor to dis
criminate between responsible COM
panies and those who possess no stabili-
ty.
There are plenty of good shows, but,
unfortunately, there are hundreds
which are utterly devoid of merit.
Now, any one can tell at glance il
they see magnificent new store with
massive plate glass windows, that II
necessarily calls for great outlay oi
money to erect it, and the stock In
such store is generally Of the finest
The same line of reasoning to theatri-
cal enterprises; for instance; when you
see show billed In the lavish and ex-
pensive manper that characterizes
t'She Couldn't Marry Three' company
you can rest assured that there is mon.
ey and push back oft. The beautiful
artistic pictorial photographic work
is the finest and costliest on the road
No photographic firm would attempt
that kind of work without having ten
thousand dollars down to insure them
from loss. This is only one of the many
items Of a great show, and the same
good taste which provides this beauti
full printing will neglect no other de
partment OF the show. So there is moi
doubt that the production of "She
Couldn't Marry Three" Is the bigges
show of the season.

Dobbins' Electric Soap 4

Dobbins' Electric Soap is
cheaper for you to use, If you
follow directions, than any
other Soap would be, if given
to, you; for by Its use clothes
are saved. Clothes cost more
than soap. This soap cost
in 1869 twenty cents a bar.
Now it cost nine: It contains
precisely the same ingredients,
and no others, now as then,
and costs less than half. Buy
it Of your grocer, use it and
preserve your clothes. If he
hasn't it, he knows that hecan
buy it of his wholesale grocer
The genuine always has our
name on the wrapper. Look
out for limitations. There are
many of them.
|PRESERVA- Of clothes BY the
TION Electric SOAP, is an
established fact of "a generation. It Is
not an experiment or wild assertion,
but absolutely true. Think carefully
whether you prefer to save cent OF
two on soap, or dollars on clothes
You can't do both. Buy Dobbins'
Electric and look on every wrapper
for the name of

Committee feels that the timbers Cd
which their campaign Is resting are
sinking away. In the very frenzy OF
despair they are exhaustiDg device and
method TO prop up their fast falling
hopes.
They are now engaged in playing
their last trump. II falling, as 1t sure
ly will, they will be In the very slough
of dispond."
The Chairman Of each Republican
County Executive Committee has been
instructed to get the name Of the wool
growers in their respective county, and
particularly those who are Democrats,
and forward them to the State Repub-
lican Executive Committee.
These wool growers will be dosed
with doctored tracts with the hopes of
interesting them against the Demo-
cratic party.
The wool growers of Ohio should be
familiar with the effects of the "pro-
tective(?) tariff"
They have had years of sad expert
ence, and should not need paper object
lessons.
Kindergarten teaching will not raise
the price of their clips.
There Is no fact better known than
that since 1867, the year the excessive
duty was placed on wool, the industry
has languished.
The number Of sheep in the State
has fallen off nearly fifty per cent. and
the price of wool has declined 663 per
cent.
In 1867 wool sold for 80 cents per
pound.
Mr.. Mckinley urged the passage OF
his notorious bill that the price of wool
might be enhanced.
From the hour the law became op.
erative, wool has declined.
1t sold for less in the winter of $50
with the Mckinley bill In full force
than IL did In 'S9.
Itsold for less In '91 than ii did in 100
aud for less In 1872 than it did In '91
and now, In 1898 it is 33s per cent. leOs
than Ii was in 1892.
There was no panic in 1890 or '91 Of
! 1872.
Why did wool decline In those year
with the increased tariff duty, glver
by the Mckinley law?
This question should command th'
attention of the Republican Executiv,
/ Committee. Perhaps they desire tn,
names of the wool growers that the,
may explain this monstrous contra
diction.
The probabilities, however. are tina
they want the names, to make deatl
struggle to further deceive the grower
of wool. IF any Democrat receives on
of their circulars let him write bacl
and say:
I'm 1890 you promised me bette
prices for my WOOL"
"You deceived me.n
"Wool has declined every year unit
to-day 1t is scarcely worth taking from
| the backs of the sheep.n
"Do you expect me to give credenc
to any promise you may make nowW
"The truth Ia, the BOTTOM is out o
the wool market, and am satisfied
that PROTECTION HAS KNOCKED T
| OUT"

Alone On The Prairie.

The day was in that transitory state
when twilight fingers in the lap of day,
and darkness struggles for the ascend
ency. The sun hung In great red
ball of lurid flame betwixt heaven and
earth; there was a feeling of profound
quiet which seemed to settle on all
things animate and inanimate. The
birds, the insects, the very trees and
sprouting plants were for the moment
hushed as If In expectancy of some un-
forseen, some inexplicable something
which seemed to pervade the very at
mosphere. A bull frog gurgled softly
ashe fell back into the limpid water.
Suddenly, over the brow of a distant
hill, there appeared solitary man,
seated astride agreat bay horse; he
cast one long sweeping glance around
him and then went back over the brow
ofthe hill again. And that same night
over seven hundred people were turned
away unable to gain admission to the
Opera House where "She Couldn't
Marry Three was being played to the
most delighted audience of the season.
