in NcbrnsISn.
Jacob Houclt Of this city has been out
among the German voters OF the state for
the past month in the interest of the re-
publican ticket. In a letter to Secretary
Lunt of the county central committee he
reports that the change of sentiment among
the voters of the state continues in favor of
sound money and protection, He says that
the spontaneous ouburst for Bryan Is dying
out and that the Bryan shouters are re-
gaining their senses.
Mr. Houck, said: "The silver people are
growing desperate. and some of the mis-
representations to which they resort in
order to make votes for their candidates are
ridiculous. One Of them is to the effect that
Major Mckinley introduced the sc-called
Bennett law in congress, and this has
been largely circulated among the Germans
to arouse their prejudice against the repub-
lican candidate. As a matter OF fact the
Bennett law was a purely local affair,
which was first brought up in Wisconsin
and then in Illinois while Major Mckinley
was governor of Ohio, but this does not
prevent the silver shouters from using it
against Mckinley"

STRENGTH FROM FOOD.
BUT THE FOOD MUST BE D1GEs1ED.

There is no way to get strong without food.
Food is the strength maker.
Just enough food properly digest ed,
makes the strong and healthy man or
woman. Too much, too little, or even the
right quantity, not digested, will make any
body weak.
The beginning Of all sickness is weakness.
The beginning of all weakness is indigestion.
So to keep strong look after your digestion.
That is the most important point of all.
When your food ferments in your stomach
and forms gas, causes dizziness, nausea,
bad taste, sick headache, full feeling, nerv-
business, irritability, ETC., you have indiges-
ton. You are losing part of your life.
Every hour you are sick causes a loss of
strength.
The way to cure it is to take Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial. A few doses will relieve. If
you take it long enough you will regain the
strength you have lost
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made from
herbs and plants by the Shakers of Mount
Lebanon. 1t contains very strong digestive
tonic properties. 1t creates strength. 1t
makes your food make you strong and bright
and healthy. 1t clears your complexion and
strengthens your body against disease If
you want to get strong and we'll, try a bot
tie.
