the open squares on the left of the
names of George II. Durand and Ed
ward Evans, a split republican ticket
is voted, counting for all the republic
an candidates with the exception of
those Of justice of the supreme court

any other ticket the name of the candi-

which they are candidates, at the ex.
treme left of the ballot. When the
ticket is properly marked to suit the
voter and before leaving the booth, he
must fold his ballot SO that no part of
the face thereof shall be exposed, and
SO that the initials of the inspector
shall be on the outside thereof. On
leaving the booth he shall at once de-

100 feet OF the polls and no one Is
allowed TO witness the marking Of

unable to mark his own ticket, In
which case the board will designate
some one TO do II Tor him.

Natures Surest Ally.

If nature did not struggle against disease, even
in weakly constitutions, swift indeed would be the
course of malayd to its fatal termination.
While nature thus struggles let us, lest worse be-
fall us, aid her efforts with judicious medicinal
help. Experience must be our guide in battles
with disease, and that clamp to our feet indicates
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters as a safe, tried and
thorough ally of nature. If the blood be effected
with bile, If the bowels and stomach are inactive
il the kidneys fail TO eXpel impurities of which
they are the natural outlet, course of the Btters
is the surest reliance of the sufferer one moreover
that is sancto ned by professional Endorsement and
use for nearly half a ce injury. No American or
foreign remedy has earned greater distinction as "a
remedy for and preventive of chronic liver COM
