GET APPETITE.
If You Don't, You Will Never
Be Strong or Healthy.

Appetite is one thing that you can't
afford to be without, for without it your
health, strength and comeliness flies out of
the window.
Poor appetite means weak stomach, starved
body, sick individual. Good appetite the
opposite
Poor appetite is a sign that your stomach is
too weak for digestion. You can aid it with
the Shaker Digestive Cordial.
When your stomach is able to digest all
the food that your body needs, you will have
a good appetite Not before.
Good food, well digested, means strength
and long, healthy life. Undigested food
creates poison which affects the whole body,
aud may give you headache, dizziness,
nausea, constipation, natulence, languor,
weakness, mental f-prcssion, stomachache,
fever nervousness, offensive breath, anacmia,
rheumatism, etc.
All these disorders will be relieved II you
will take Shaker Digestive Cordial.
1t is pure vegetable digestive and
natural invigorator, which aids the stomach,
purfes the system of the posous of indi-
gcstion and makes you strong, fat and
healthy.
Shaker Digestive Cordial does not act on
the liver, but on the undigested food in the
stomach 1t cures indigestion or biliousness
without irritating the liver or any of the
internal organs.
At druggists Ten cents for a trial bottle.

A WEAK POSITION.

The organization of the Borough Council
last night was effected by the eight Republi-
can members standing together, thus enab-
ling that party to fill the offices and to con
troll the body for the next twelve months.
There had been much speculation as to who
would receive the plums, and the proceed
ings last evening clearly shows that little
dependence can be placed in idle rumors in
this respect
The selections appear to give universal
satisfaction and some of the appointments
were received with much surprise, The
Democrats concede the wisdom of the selec-
tions,aud among the Republicans the majority
members Of Council are being heartily COM
mended for the course pursued,
The meeting was a stormy one, but good
feeling predominated during the proceedings.
The Democrats attempted TO catch their op-
ponents mapping, but were checkmated.
Forewarned is forearmed, and in the present
case there intentions in protesting against
the right of Mr.. McElhenny TO take part in
the proceedings was known by the Republi-
cans The latter feel satisfied, after consult
ing high legal authority, that their position
will be sustained by the court should tn,
minority members carry their opposition
that far.
We herewith give the opinion of one of tn,
leading lawyers Of the county bar, A. l.
Schalck, Esq, upon the question at issue. Il
politics Mr.. Schalck is Democrat, and thi
fact, coupled with his knowledge of the law
makes his opinion so much the stronger. III
says:
In answer TO your inquiry as TO the compc
teney Of Mr.. James MoElhenny at this time t
sit u member OF your Council, and +
participate in its deliberations, l beg to say
That Mr. McElhenny, having been duly electe
The evening herald. [volume] (Shenandoah, Pa.) 1891-1966, 1896-03-03

a member of Council from the Second ward Of
your borough, and having served as such with
out question up to this time, and not having
resigned his scat in Council, and no proceedings
having been instituted by any one against him
to Dust him from Council, / know of no legal
reason for denying him the rights and privileges
of q member of your body.
/ understand that ho does contemplate rcmov-
ing from said ward and from the borough, but
until he actually does SO move, and uuti he
actually changes his domicic, and until he
acquires domicilo elsewhere, he continues to
retain his domicile in said ward and IN your
borough, for i'm law every man has "a domicilo
somewhere, and he retains his last domicilc
until hc actually acquires new domioile some
where
That this is also the accepted view Of his
follow citizens and constituents of the Second
ward is shown by the fact that Mr.. Mclllhcuny,
even at the recent election, ulliciatcd uu-
challenged as Judge Of Election at the polls OF
the Second ward, and hc certainly is to-day as
competent to represent this ward in Council as
he was then to be its Judge Of Election.
Moreover, ! hold that it is not ia the power of
Councils TO take the law into its own hands, and
uuccrcmuniously to Dust q fellow member, and
that the only legal way to oust member of
Council is by appropriate proceedings i'm court.
This is a clear statement, and sets at rest
all doubt as to the legality of Mr.. Nc
Elhcnny's claim as u member of Council
from the Second ward. No fault can be found
with the Democrats for gaining an advantage
over their opponents but their action in the
matter is hardly consistent, when tits known
that they themselves have retained control
Of Council by methods they now condemn.
Consistency, thou art a jewel when
applied to the other fellow.

The action of the House Of Representatives
in endorsing the action Of the Senate yester-
day by such an overwhelming majority shows
unmstakably the sentiment Of this country
upon the Cuban question. As Spain was one
of the first countries to accord bellgerent
rights to the Southern states in rebellion in
1861, there is something very like grim retri-
button in the case Of the Queen of the
Antilles. As the rebellion has continued for
over year, dciying the army Of over 100000
men that Spain has ptted against them, it is
time such action was taken uniniluenced by
the action Of Spanish mobs in attacking
American consulates. Now let the President
act promptly upon the lines so plainly
marked out for him by Congress and the
cause of freedom will be advanced greatly.
