Mr.. D. P. Davis, a prominent livery
man and merchant of Goshen, Va, has
this to say on the subject of rheumatism
81 take pleasure in recommending Cham
berlain's Pain Balm for rheumatism, as
know from personal experience that it
will do all that is claimed for it. A year
ago this spring my brother was laid up in
bed with inflammatory rheumatism and
suffered intensely. The first application
of Chamberlain's Palm Balm eased the
pain and the use of one bottle completely
cured him. For sale E. T. Reynolds.

Two Thousand Barrels of Herring at
One Haul.

John E. Jackson made remark
able haul at his Spesutia fishing
shore last week. On Monday after
noon the seine was hauled in as
close to shore as it would come and
then staked out. There We're about
two acres of water inside the seine
which seemed to be one solid mass
of fish. The water on the outer
edge being about five feet deep.
The seine was not finally landed
till Thursday afternoon. The lowest
estimate put the herring at 2OOO
barrels which Mr.. Jackson thinks
is the largest catch at single haul
that has ever been made in these
waters,

Democratic State Convention.

The Democratic State Central
Committee met at Baltimore
Wednesday to name the time for
holding primaries and conventions
to select delegates to the National
Convention at Chicago. The com
mittee for Cecil county is composed
of John Banks, S. G. Rowland and
DR.. f. III. Mackie.
The results of the deliberations
of the committee were as follows:
For State convention, June 10, at
Baltimore.
Congressional convention, Second
district-Havre de Grace, Sept. 2.
Dates are named for each Con-
gressional district. The aspirants
for congressional honors in the
Second district are numerous and it
goes without saying, able. Their
names are as follows:
G. G. Crothers, of Cecil; Col.
Herman Stump, of Hartford; J. f.
G. Talbot, of Baltimore county; B.
Frank Grouse and T. Herbert
Shriver, of Carroll county.
Of course Cecil will cleave to her
favorite son, G. c., as fondly as
Ruth did to Naomi. The nominat-
ing convention will want to pledge
the candidate to the Rothschild
system of finance, which the repub-
lican leaders call "sound" money
in order to catch guls. We advise
Charles to have a mental reserva-
ton when they take him up to
swear on the alter of the golden
calf. It's no harm to cheat the
democratic party, especially when
it is copying the republican plat
forms. There will not be enough
left of the party after November to
swear by anyhow.
FOR GOLD STANDARD.
Mr.. Mealey spoke in favor of the
gold standard. In part he said:
"The most important thing for
the convention to do is to adopt a
resolution for sound and honest
money and the gold standard with
out any equivocation or room for
doubt. This is and should be the
great issue of the presidential cam
paign. The tariff question should
not be agitated. While the present
tariff law is not all that we desired,
it will be better to allow it to re-
main undisturbed for the present
than to unsettle business by a fur
Their discussion. Business interests
should be permitted to settle them
selves to present condition.
GAS to the State of Maryland,
there is no free-silver sentiment in
it. The people are for honest dol
lars. Maryland is a southern state
and she should speak for honest
money in order to let the other
southern states know just how she
stands, and it may have a good
effect. In my opiuion, a free coin
age candidate cannot carry this
State, and the southern states
should understand this as soon as
possible"
Senator German gave out an in
terview after the meeting in which
the same views on the financial
question are expressed, and these
views being identical with those
expressed by the republican con-
vention held a short time previous,
we see no use in the two bodies
standing separate and apart any
longer. Senator German made it
known in his interview that he
proposed to take charge of the dem
ocratic party of the State in future,
and he is all for "sound' money,
that is, gold and national bank
notes and United States bonds to
base the notes on, the same thing
identically the republican party is
in favor of. Where is the use of
these two souls with but single
thought remaining severed longer /!

For every quarter in mans pocket
there are dozen uses; and to use each
one in such way as to drive the greatest
benefit is question every one must solve
for himself. We believe, however, that
no better use could be made of one of
those quarters than to exchange it for a
bottle of Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera

Ill lOIICHlSs
Rev. Dementruis Vishanoff of
Macedonia a convert of the Metho-
dist missions in that country spoke
in the Methodist church, Perryville,
morning and evening on Sunday
last. In the morning he told OF
his conversion and of his subse-
quent efforts to secure an education
in this country. In the evening
he appeared in his Macedonia cos
tune.
Macedonia was Alexander the
Greats birth place. Young Aleck
conquered the world and then cried
when the old geographer assured
him there were no more worlds to
conquer. He was a great horse
tanner too and no doubt would be
delighted if he could visit the races
at Elkton. He closed his career by
getting drunk and dying. The
world has undergone considerable
change since AleXander's time.

THE TYPES KEEP TALKING.
Doctor" Said the Patient,

doctor" Said the Patient,
II believe there's something wrong with
nv stomach" "Not bit of it." replied
the doctor, promptly. "God made your
stomach and he knows how to make
them. There's something wrong, maybe,
with the stuff you put in it, and some,
thing wrong in the way you stuff It and
stamp it down; but your stomachs an
right. Take bottle or two OF Anti
Ferment and get it going right again, and
betemperate in what you drink and mod
crate in what you eat and your stomach
will give you no trouble"
The Most Becoming
Thing a human being can wear, is
smile. But how can we expect the melody
and poetry of a smile from anyone VINO
suffers the horrors OF dyspepsia. Let
that individual take Anti-Ferment. 1t
brightens the sad countenance, ligthens
the dropping spirits and brings feeling
of happy content.
Threw Out the Life Line.
A letter from lady living in the coun-
try says: 81 feel that I must write you
this morning to say that by the use OF
YOUR Anti Ferment we saved the life of
our old and invaluable family horse,
Fanny. She was violently attacked with
collie yesterday afternoon. After giving
her all the usual remedies for the disease,
she continued to grow worse until we de-
SPARED of saving her life. l happened To
think of having bottle of nti-Ferment
in the house and we at once gave her a
dose of it. 1t was but little while un-
til she was relieved and before morning
she was eating grass in the yard" In
this case, bottle of Anti-Ferment was
worth the price Of a valuable horse.
No Empty Cradles.
Somebody said
The hand that rocks the cradle
Is the hand that rules the world.
Hts so, too.]
The diseases that carry off three-fourths,
or more, of the babies, are diseases OF the
stomach and the bowels. Anti-Ferment
might be called specific for such dlsor-
ders among children. We want to see no
empty cradles. Let them rock on. Give
the baby, if you find that it's bowels are
deranged and it does not digest its food,
q dose after each time you feed or nurse
it, and you will find that you will have no
trouble in controlling this disease. Treat
larger children in the same manner. We
have some strong testimonials to prove
that what we have said in this paragraph
will not admit of doubt.
