MICHIGAN ELECTION FIGURES.
People Worked up just as in 1860
State Safe for Bryan.

II cast my first vote for John c.
Fremont" said MIR. John Hutchinson,
of Jackson, Mich, at the Ebbitt MY
first Democratic vote was -four Cleveland
four years ago, and my next will be
for BRYAN in little over two weeks.
He is a wonderful man and will be
elected. During his visit to my town
I never saw anything like the enthusi =
asm manifested The people were
worked up as they were in 1860. There
is no doubt in my mind that Michigan
will give Bryan good majority. This
is not a mere guess, but is the result
of careful study. Take Hillsdale
county, for instance. 1t has always
given a Republican majority of from
9. 400 to 2,700. This year | happen to
know that the Republican managers
will be satisfied if tney get through
with 100 majority. Two years ago the
Republicans elected a Sheriff in Jack
son by majority of 1900. This year
it is pretty generally conceded that a
Democrat will be elected. The city Will
undoubtedly go for Bryan, and from
various Indications / shall be very
greatly surprised if Michigan does not
give a substantial majority. Wash

Sickness is a burglar who is continually
trying to break into human life. His most
usual tool is constipation. This one, seem
ingly unimportant thing is the primary
cause of nine-tenths of all human ailments
When the bowels fail to act, impure poison.
Gus matter is retained in the system, is alb
sorbed by the blood, and carried TO every
part Of the body. All the digestive organs
are affected and particularly the largest and
most important of them-the liver. Con-
stipation causes biliousness and bilious
headaches Tetards digestion in the stomach
causing fermenlation-sour stomach, hatu-
Iency, and feverishness, feeling of full
ness, heart burn, and other disagreeable
symptoms. DR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets
cure constipation. They afford immediate
relief but it rs not merely temporary re-
lief You do not become a slave to the use
of the Pellets" They gradually restore
the healthy, natural action of the digestive
organs and you may stop using them until
some indiscretion in eating again makes
them necessary. Doctors are supposed to
know more about health and sickness than
anybody else, and when the doctor comes,
the first thing he does is to find out if the
bowels are in good order.
"a Word to the Wise is Sufficient"
The more one knows about health and disease,
