AN ALPENA MIRACLE.
Mrs. Jas. NJ. Todd, Of Long Rapids,
Discards Her Clutches.
In an Interview with Reporter She Re-
views Her Experience and Tells the
Real Cause of the Miracle.
(Froa. the argus, Alpena, Mich. }

We have long known Mrs. Jas. n. Todd,
Of Long Rapids, Apena Co., Mich. She
has been sad cripple. Many of her friends
know the story Of her recovery; for the
benefit of those who do not we publish it to-
day.
Eight years ago she was taken with rerv-
Gus prostraticl, and in a few months with
muscular aid infammatory rheum atis1n.
It affected her heart, then her head. Her feet
became so swollen she could wear nothing
on them; her hands were drawn all out of
shape. Her eyes were swollen shut more
than half the time, her knee joints terribly
swollen and for eighteen months she had
to be held Up to be dressed. One limb be-
came entirely helpless, and the skin was so
dry and cracked that it would bleed. During
these eight years she had been treated by
score CT physicians, and has also spent
much time at Ann Arbor under best medi-
cal advice. All SAIL her trouble was
brought on by hard work and that medicine
would not cure, and that rest was the only
thing which would ease her. After going
to live with her daughter she became entire
~ helpless and could not even raise her
arms to cover herself at night The inter-
esting part of the story follows in her own
words:
az vas urged to try DR.. Williams Pink
Pills for Pale People and at last did so. In
three days after commenced taking Pink
Pills could sit up and dress myself, and
after using them six weeks I went home
| and commenced working. I continued
taking the pills, until now I begin to forget
my crutches, and can go up and down steps
without aid. I am truly living wonder,
walking out of doors without assistance
Snow, if I can say anything to induce
those who have suffered as I have, to try
Pink Pills, I shall gladly do SO. IF other
| like sufferers will try Pink Pills according
| to directions, they will have reason to thank
| God for creating men who are able to con-
quer that terrible disease, rheumatism. I
have in my own neighborhood recommend
ed Pink Pills for the after effects of la
grippe, and weak women with impure
| blood, and with good results
Mrs. Todd is very strong in her faith in
| the curative powers of Pink Pills, and says
they have brought a poor helpless cripple
back to do her own milking, churning,
washing, sewing, knitting, and in fact about
all of her household duties, thanks to DR..
| Williams Pink Pills.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills contain all the
elements necessary to give new life and
richness to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are for sale by all druggists,
or may be had by mail from DR.. Williams

ton, and after them the family known

care, house ornaments are at hand

new leaves. Some people have trouble
turning brown On the ends, and it must
be said that good many do not Sue
ceed in entirely preventing this. By
watering at the proper time and in
sufficient quantities., the leaves of your
palms may always be kept in prime
condition. 1t is necessary also to
wash the leaves frequently, as the fine
dust which is always in the air of the
dwelling house is sure to prevent the
healthy development Of the plant
When watering is done. not only with
palms but with other plants. also, a
good quantity of water should be put
on, and then they should be left alone
until the earth around the plants feels
dry, and then the watering should be
repeated. When the amateur palm
grower meets with failure, he or she
should not feel discouraged, but set to
work with other plants. Sometimes
specimens are met with which even
the florists themselves cannot make
do well, and so they may well be
thrown away and fresh attempts be
made with new plants. The kinds Of
palms above named will do nicely in
the parlor, even where there is fur
mace heat; all it requires is patience
and a little knowledge, which can cas-
fly be acQuired.-Brooklyn Standard

A JUST TRIBUTE,

In 1889, when James K. Campbell
was a candidate for governor, and was
elected, the men who now constitute
the George B. Cox gang conceived the
idea of defeating him by falsehood and
forgery, and the bitterest kind Of per-
eonal defamation. Decent Republicans
then. as now, resented this disreputable
mcde Of doing things.
After the meancst of the falsehoods
had been exploded and the most menda-
Fious of the forgeries had been exposed,
General Charles II. Grcsvenor, the well
known Republican congressman, VIII
fought Governor Campbell's politics,
but refused to be a party to falsehood
and forgery, was billed to speak in tho
intensely Republican city Of Xenia, in
1889, in behalf of Governor Foralcr's
candidacy.
Some one III the audience asked him
if he knew James E. Campbell, and if
he did, what scrt Of character did he
bear? In answer to the question Gen
eral Grcsvenor said:
HE is a gentleman of high character,
pure patriotism, and a high order Of in
telligcnce; of answering honesty and
fidelity. Upon every question in which
the soldier was interested he voted as l
voted, and claim to have a pretty good
standing as friend to the soldiers Of
the war. Side by side with me he voted
fer all measures of relief for the soldiers.
SIDE by side he voted with me for the
dependent pension bill, and hand in
hand with me he voted to pass the bill
over the veto Of Mr.. Cleveland"
And what did the Ccx gang, who
were then running the Republican cam
paign as they are now, do with General
Grosvenor for saying this Of political
opponent They cancelled all of his en-
gagements and refused to allow him to
make another speech in the campaign
Of 1889. They punished him for being
. decent Republican then, as they pro-
pose to punish all other Republicans for
upholding decency in politics now or in
the future as long as they hare control
of the machine.

grabbing a salary that he never
earned, the man who could not be
bribed in any way, as the latter was
tried while acting in the capacity of
Prosecuting Attorney of Hooking
county. And what was the result?
The Treasury of Hooking county
was $3.50 better off, and Mr., Lowry
was highly complimented on, by
the Judge on the bench, stating that
the people of Hooking county de-
served praise IN selecting for their
servant such man as Y. G. Lowry.
These are the traits which charac-
izc the nominee of the Democratic
party of Hooking and Vinton coun-
ties.
Then vote for Lowry and the
whole Democratic ticket from top to
bottom. All the candidates Oh the
county ticket are good men.
W. F. Bowen for Auditor, VIM.
A. Danes for Sheriff, P. d. Sloan
for RECORDER, and for the Office of
County Commissioner the Democrats
have nominated Henry Trimmer the
honest and thrifty farmer and bust
ness man of the county, who under
stands the wants of the farmers of
the county, the man who together
with the prgsent Democratic Au-
ditor of the county appeared before
a State Board of equalization and
succeeded IN reducing the valuation
of the taxable property IN the coun
ty nineteen per cent for the benefit
of the taxpayers, stating to said
Board that by economy the business
of the county could be run with less
money, thus saving the taxpayers
hundreds of dollars yearly, for it
must be borne in mind that the
Commissioners are to a great extent
the distributors of the money paid
by the taxpayers of the county.
This Of itself should be enough to
satisfy the people of Hooking county
that Mr.. Trimmer is the right man
for the Office, and the Republican
party having heretofore advocated
minority representation on the
Board will consider the matter and
vote for Henry Trimmer for Com
missioner.
Let every Democrat do his duty,
express your sentiments through the
the ballot box. by voting the whole
Democratic ticket. The Democratic
candidates are all efficient, capable
and upright men, give the people to
understand that you are not in favor
tyrany and bossism; and when the
smoke of battle clears sway and the
enemy conquered, will rejoice in the
victory.
