you miserable.
Different diseases have different roi-
sons, some have several, Indigestion
more than any.
That Is the symptoms Of indigestion
are caused by the poisons which are
created by undigested food
When you are sick, try to get rid of
your poison.
1t is often easier than you thlak, for
all nature is helping you. only the
poison is obstinate, but the first step Is
to go to the root of it.
The poisons of undigested food, which
cause lethargy, headache, dizziness,
weakness. bad taste, stomach-ache,
fever, flatulence, nausea, constipation,
loss of appetite, jaundice, anaemia,
neuralgia, rheumatism, etc, these poi
sons can be swept away and annihi-
lated by the Shaker Digestive Cordial
Curing the stomach and helping 1t to
digest food, when it is too weak to do
so by itself, will purify your system OF
poison and renew your strength and
health.
Shaker Digestive Cordial, a pure,
vegetable digestive tonic, made by the
Shakers of Mount Lebanon, will cure
all disorders caused by the poisons or
undigested food when nothing else Will

would select William Jennings Bryan as
Americas representative. Such a thing
is talked about, but OF course is wildly
conjectural.
Bryan held that the international
agreement plank in the Republican
platform was twaddle. and II he should
be selected as Americas representative
to enforce on European nations the i'm
mediate necessity OF restoring by an in
ternational agreement silver as a pri-
mary money, his acceptance would be
a concession that there was something
IN international agreement after all. For
that reason Bryan would not accept.

IMPORTANT pR1vATE SECRETARIES

One of the most prominent men in the
recent campaign was Mr.. Dawes OF IL
linois. He is now mentioned Tor the
president-elect's private secretary NE.
Boyle. who has so long served Mekin-
ley in that capacity, has his eye on q
consulate in England.
Mr.. Dawes was a member. and a lead
ing one, of the national executive com
mittee. His proposed selection as pri-
rate secretary is Indicative OF how I'M
portant a place the private secretary
ship is. If any one had been asked to
guess what Dawes reward WAS 10 be
no one would have aimed lower than
mission in Europe.
But the president is likely to select a
man for private secretary with more
care than he would select minister or
an ambassador. The private secretary
is the third hand of the executive in
state and national offices. He knows
every secret and maneuyer of his super
Tor. He is often asked TO act on his own
responsibility and must do so in man
ner which will receive the complete ap-
probation of the executive. He Is q
closer adviser in fact than any member
of the cabinet, and his influence Is as
far4reaehing, though it may be e2er-
eised in an indirect way.
The Kansas papers have been making
fun of Ed. Little for dropping his am
billions to a degree where private sec
retaryship to the governor was accepta-
BILE. They do not consider that it takes
tremendous lot of brains to be pri-
vate secretary and that private secre-
taries fall short of proper ability a hun
dred times where United states sen
ator is found lacking once.
