Broken nnI1ot-Bok Kers.

The broken ballot box key is liable
TO be a numerous sensation for this
election. In overhauling and distribut-
ing the ballot boxes yesterday County
Clerk Stanton found many keys bro
ken, and in several instances the keys
were broken off in The boxes. Many
boxes had to be sent to the hin shop
TO be repaired, and the locks picked
of the broken keys. The secret of all
This trouble is that the keys are made
of such soft metal that they will not
turn the locks if the tumblers catch
or clog the least bit. If the judges who
open and close these boxes will use
the utmost care and Judgment st is
barely possible that broken keys may
be avoided. In trying to open the boxes

in avoiding broken key accidents.

FAST LIVING AMERICANS.

We new world people ara fast livers,
and in nothing is this more observable
than in our reckless irregularity as to
sleep and diet. We alternately starve
and gorge ourselves, doing each in the
most irregular and 'hasty manner, with
out regard to the nutritive value of the
food consumed, or the deleterious eff
fects upon the digestive organs or the
terrible tasks imposed upon them at
the most unreasonable hours. 1t is
Nttle wonder we are a nation of dys-
peptics, and prone to constipation, piles,
etc. 1T is to their efficacy as a remedy
for those ailments that DIR. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets owe their unparalleled
popularity. Good results always follow
their use in all cases of arrangement of
the liver, stomach and bowels.

Remark when you attend a play or

nuisance, and there is no need of it,
for anyone may cure a cough with the
