illustrated the benefits Of the creamery

who formerly used it extensively, now
purchase cotton seed oil instead. The
poor butter is shipped to the European

upon the intelligence Of his hearers
when he attempts to mislead them Wit.
such an absurd proposition.
Like all populss Joe was certain
that the depression OF the last tour years
was not caused by the election Of
democratic president and democratic
congress and their attempt to put the
coantry on free trade basis, and as
serted that the same conditions would
have existed had the republican party
been successful four years ago, but he
did not explain how it was that for the
long period of republican ascendancy
that party had never had to issue bones
to pay the running expenses OF the
government. and that when they turned
the power over to the democracy the
country was enjoying uneXampled pros
perity. He denominated the opponents
Of free silver as either grossly ignorant
or political hacks in the service of the
gold bugs" What a mighty army OF
ignoramuses and political backs ac-
cordng to this are attending republican
conventions just about this time. But
Joe had the good sense TO admit that tle
country was gong republican THIS ta.l
in spite of all the combined financial
wisdom OF Joe and the popullst party.
He knows which way the strong current
of public opinion is moving and was
frank enough TO admit 1t. All the efforts
of the bonanza silver kings and their
| well-paid prophets cannot stem The tide.
AS an advocate ot the silver mining
| interests we can not blame Joe for de-
string to have the government declare
80 cents wort h OF silver to 1e worth q
dollar, but wouldn't it be wiser, II the
government is going into this KIND OF
business, for the South Dakota farmer 10
make au effort to get the government to
declare that his wheat shall be worth a
dollar bushel. II the one is practical
the other is equally SO, and the farmer
who Is raising wheat would get the bene-
fit instead OF the silver miner. The far
mer needs it more than the bonanza
silver kings OF Colorado and Nevada.

The Sutherland Evictions.

There has just died at Kirtomey, on
the northeast coast Of Sutherland, Mrs.
Betsy Mackay, at the age Of lO2. She
was a native of St1athnaver, and was a
grown up woman when that fertile and
once populous strath-about Is miles
long-was ruthlessly cleared Of it's in
habitants in the second decade Of this
century. She had vivid recollection
and many stories to tell Of the harrow
ing scenes witnessed when old and
young. weak and strong, were turned
out Of their homes. The people got half
an hours notice to pack up their be-
lougings before the torch was applied
to the thatch of their dwellings. The
burning lasted six days, and from one
eminence over 250 blazing cottages could
be countedl A very different state Of
things, it is pleasing to record, prevails
on the Sutherland property nowadays.

Food, undigested, is poison. Di-
gested, it is life and strength. Mil
lions Of us suffer from Indigestion,
but we often don't know it. We
think it is something else. Even
doctors often mistake the symptoms.
Pale, thin people, who are over
worked, who need strengths, who seem
in want of proper food, should take
Shaker Digestive Cordial. 1t is
astonishing what food will do, when
properly digested.
It will make you strong, revive
you, refresh you, sustain you, make
you fat, restore your color, make
muscle, brain fibre, courage, erdu-

throw off disease and keep you
healthy and happy.
Indigestion does just the opposite,
but indigestion can be cured and
