SECRETARY CARLISLE has arranged
to address a mass meeting of the
workingmen of Chicago on April Is.
The Secretary has been invited to
make an address on current financial
questions as a conslcuous representa-,
tive of the sound money Idea. His
address, according to his own stipula-
ton, is to be entirely free from
partisanship, and it is to be confined
strictly to an exposition of his personal
belief as to the system of finance best
for the general interests of the coun-
try. 1t is needless to say that the
Secresarys remarks will be received
with the attention which any remarks
of the head of the national Treasury
should attract irrespective of his party

sound money addresses, has added tc
his reputation as an expositor of clear
ness and force, and this fact will add
to the interest which would natural y
be felt in his address on other
grounds.-BradStreets.

If a small bottle of Shaker Diges-
tive Cordial does you no good, don't
buy a large one.
"Prove all things; hold fast that
which is good" It's not good for
everybody, only for the thin, pale,
sick, weak and weary. For those
who are starving for want ofdigested
food. For those who cannot get fat
or strong, because their stomachs do
not work as they ought to.
These are the people, millions of
them, whom Shaker Digestive Cordi-
al will cure.
Food makes strength, muscle,
brains blood, energy-after it is
digested. If not digested, it will do
you nogood at all.
Shaker Digestive Cordial helps
your stomach to digest your food
and cures indigestion permanently.
When you've tried small bottle,
you can tell.

THE Philadelphia Enquirer, Repub-
lican, makes this bold assertions:
"Nearly every Southern delegate is
for sale." McKinley's friends claim
that he will have about 200 Of these
delegates and Senator Chandler,
another good Republican, says Nc
Ktnley's managers have been "frying
fat"-meanlng money-out OF the
protected manufacturers to use for
his nomination. Putting these three
assertions together, and all honest
men will come to the same conclusion,
that McKinley's managers are buying
Southern delegates with these manu-
facturers' money to secure his noml-
nation.
