The big, hearty, healthy man Is a contin-
ual irritation to his dyspeptic friend. One
mar in a hundred Is perfectly healthy.
The other 90 have some digestive trouble,
and perhaps more than so per cent Of
these could trace their trouble to that most
prevalent evil-constipation. It's a simple
thing Of itself, but like many simple things,
II may grow and become complicated.
Constipation is the root of nine-tenths of
the sickness of men, and of a large proper
ton of the sickness of women. 1t can be
cured. II can be cured easily, naturally
and quickly. There Is no reason save that
of carelessness why It should cause the
trouble that II does. Nature Is continually
working as hard as she can to throw of inn
purities, and to force out poisonous refuse
matter. Nature Is not a dray-horse and
should not be overworked. Nature Is sys-
tematic. Some little thing may interfere
with the system, and cause serious derange-
ment. The removal of this little impedi-
ment sets the wheels working again with
out any trouble.
This Is exactly what DR.. Pierce's Pleasant
Pellets do. They assist nature in a gentle.
healthful, efficient way. There is nothing
violent about their action, and yet il is lust
as certain as If Il were twice as violent.
The use of the pellets " doesn't derange
the system in any way, and once Il Is In
order, you can stop taking them. There
are INSCRIPTIONS druggists, who will tell
you that something else is lust as good"
They are mistaken or worse. Whether
they are ignorant or untruthful matters
little to you II you do not get the "Pel.
lets" Insist ON getting what you ask for.

THE OLD STORY

A man in Lincoln, Neb.. has posted
with Scion humphrey, treasurer of the
Chamber OF Commerce, New York, a
sum Of money TO wager on equal
amount that Bryan will not carry his
own ward, or his own city. IL sounds
like very rash bet. but as a matter of
fact, it is almoss certain to win, ac-
cordlng to reports and the apparent un-
popularity of the Democratic candi-
date i'm his own home. It should not
be taken too seriously. To some people
il Is almost impossible to understand
the petty enmities and jealousies that
exist In a community like that which
Mr.. Bryan honors with his residence.
OF course he will not carry his own
ward or his own city, as both are Re
publican strOngholds. Probably every
man OF his most intimate acquaintance
viii so to the polls and vote against
him, while every woman of Mrs.
Bryan's acquaintance will simply work
tooth and nail, to prevent their old
FREUD from rising to the dignity of the
lady of the White House. IL is always
that way and ,his little incident is
probably a characteristic example OF
what one may expect from friends.

! Ground for the construction Of the
now postoffice was first broken on
! April 9, 1890, and during the following
Summer the excavations were finished
and the foundation laid. Then follow
ed an itervening period OF over a year
during which time not a stone was laid
nor a nail driven in the side of the
superstructure. This delay was caused
by the inadequacy OF the sum appro.
priated by Congress for the work. The
original amount set aside for the pur.
pose was $150000 but is was entirely
insufficient, as subsequently proven:
so an additional 100000 was appropri.
ated to push forward the undertaking.

ture on March 3, 1893, and in August
of tho following year the gang o
