THE SHAKERS ARE A HAPPY COM
MUNITY

1t is said, but the shaker who shakes
because he can't help it is by no means
a happy individual. So shakes the per
son troubled with chillls and fever.
The quivering and shuddering sensa-
ton is followed by no less plague,
namely, burning fever, which is fol-
lowed by a perspiration bath that
leaves the unhappy sufferer 'as weak
as a cat" a most unfortunate simile,
by the way, as the cat, for its size, is a
particularly muscular animal. Under
the above circumstances viatl stamina
is soon used up. What will recuperate
it? Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which eradicates malarial disease in
every form and repairs it's terrible
ravages upon the system. Derange-
ment of the liver always accompanies
malarial disorder. To the relief of this
complaint, as well as constipation and
dyspepsia, the Bitters are admirably
adapted. No less efficacious and thor
ough is it for kidney trouble, nervous
ness, rheumatism and neuralgia. A
wineglassful three times a day.

The Caucasian this week will present
a symposium Of letters from members
of the Populist party defining their po-
sitions, and mostly endorsing the stand
taken by that paper. Senator Pritch-
ard is condemned. They say they can
not endorse him if he supports McKin-
lev for President. This is the stand the
Caucasian will take. According to the
pledges made in the silver convention
the Populists cannot support a man who
will support goldbug.
