Some were in favor of purchas-

A foul breath is one of the greatest afilic-
tions that man or woman can have. An
atfiiction not only to themselves, but to
those with whom they come in contact. A
foul breath is great discourager of affec-
ton. 1t would probably be more so if PED
pie only realized just what bad breath
means. Bad breath is one of the symptoms
constipation. Some of the other symptoms
are sour stomach, loss of appetite, sick and
bilious headache, dizziness, heartburn and
distress after eating, These things mean
indigestion. They lead to dyspepsia and
worse things. They all start with constipa-
ton, and constipation is ineXcusable be-
cause 1t can be cured-cured easily, quickly
and permanently, by the use of DR.. Pierce's

Kentucky WIN Go for Bryan.

Hon. Morgan Fitzpatrick, of
Huntsville, is in the city. He has
Just returned from Louisville. He
says he had heard so much talk
about Kentucky being a doubtful
State that he thought he would
make a little investigation on his
own account. He was on an accom-
mediation train, which stopped at
every station. Every time the train
stopped Mr.. Fitzpatrick would get
off and approach the most intelli.
gent man he saw, and ask him how
Kentucky was going. Frequently
he would ask the question of a group
of men. In all he says he saw prob
ably 200 or more men, and there was
not single one who did not declare
that Bryan would carry the State.
The majorities given ranged from
Ia, 900 to 10000. In Louisville Mr..
Fitzpatrick pursued his investiga-
ton and found Democrats absolute
ly confident of big majority. Re-
publicans would make their boasts,
but quietly would admit that it
looked like Bryan, but they took
comfort in the thought that it was
mighty close" Mr.. Fitzpatrick
SAYS it will be a race between Ken
lucky and Tennessee as to which
will give the biggest majority for
Bryan. In either case it will be in
the neighborhood of 40,000.-Nash-
vile Sun.
