Did you ever stop to think what indigestion
really means? 1t means simply that your
stomach is tired. If our legs are tired, we
ride. The horse and the steam engine do the
work. Why not give your stomach a ride;
that is, let something else do the work Foods
can be digested outside the body. All plants
contain digestive principles which will do
this. The Shaker Digestive Cordial contains
digestive principles and is preparation de-
signed to rest the stomach. The shakers
themselves have such unbounded crnfdence
in it that they have placed 10 cent sample
bottles on the market, and it is said that even
small quantity proves beneficial in a vast
majority of cases. All druggists keep it.

Surely Most Welcome News 10 Suf-
fererS From Female Complaint.

1t is a fact that our women who suffer from
female complaints and are consequently weak
tired, nervous, dragged out and full of pains
and aches, do not have the same opportunity
to be cured as do the residents of the great
cities where the most successful specialists
in female diseases reside. In other words,
women are debarred from seeking a cure by
the great and skilled ply sicians owing to the
cost of travel to the large city and the high
fees charged by such specialists.
Here, therefore, is a chance for the sick and
suffering women in our community which
should not be lost. DR.. Greene of "a Temple
Place, Boston, Mass, who has the largest
practice in the world and who is without
doubt the most successful specialist in curing
female complaints, offers to give free consul
tation by mail to all women suffering from
these distressing weaknesses, discharges,
pains and irregularities. You have the priv
ilege of consulting DR.. Greene by letter de-
scribing your complaints and he will, after
carefully considering your condition, send a
letter fully explaining all your symptoms,
telling you everything about your complaints
so plainly that you will understand exactly
what ails you.
He will also give you his advice, based upon
his vast experience and wonderful success i'm
treating such cases, as to just what to do to
get cured All this will cost you nothing and
you can thus have consultation with the best
known physician and acknowledged most
successful specialist in the world, without
leaving home and at no expense whatever.
The Doctor is the discoverer of that greatest
of all known medicines, DR.. Green's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy and he has discover
ed many other most valuable remedies. Write
to him now for this is n chance to get.cured
which you may never have again.

A Talk
About
Watches.

Bob. Ingersoll says that once a
watch was not necessity, now it
is. Without watch you miss the
train, and missing many trains con-
secutively invites decentralization.
Hon. Frederick Douglass once
said that no article he ever owned
had been more serviceable to him
than his watch. His success in life
depended on punctuality, and in
fifty years he did not remember
missing single appointment.
Rev. t. Dewitt Talmage says:
A true watch is an invaluable pos
session.
A celebrated Chief Justice once
said that the number Of watches
worn in any community was the
measure of the refinement and civ
ilization Of that community.
S. Fl. Preston says that every
person old enough to appreciate
and care for a watch should own
one, and thinks it would be the
proper caper to purchase it at No.
1 Columbia Block, as there is
where the best watches are sold.

cover that thery has been no
landslide, and that a change of
%, 900 votes would have made
Mr.. Bryan President. They
learn, too, that the Senate in the
next Congress will not have
majority for financial legislation
dictated by Wall street. In ad-
dition. the call of Mr.. Bryan to
bimetallists to maintain their or

Much solicitude is expressed ov-

thinks that the Dingley bill will
be taken up in the Senate and
passed in order to afford the
needed revenues, and the free
coinage Republicans will not use
their former methods of ohstruc
ton, in view of the verdict of
the election. There seems, how

warrant this belief. Senator

less so this year than usual. In
terest in a common cause of great
Importance has reduced the fric-
ton to a minimum. thereby ex-
press my personal gratitude to
the individual members, as well
as to the executive officers of the
National committees-Democrat-
ic, Populist and Silver parties
for their efficient, untiring and
unselfsh labors. They have
laid the foundation for future
success and will be remembered
as pioneers when victory is at
last secured.
No personal of political friend
need grieve because of my de-
feat. My ambition has been to
secure immediate legislation
rather than enjoy the honors of
Office, therefore defeat brings to
me no personal loss. Speaking
for the wife who shared my lab
ors as well as for myself, I de-
sire to say that we have been
amply repaid for all that we have
done in the love of millions of
our fellow-citizens so kindly ex-
pressed. Our hearts have been
touched by the devotion of
friends, and our lives shall prove
our appreciation of that affection
which we prize as the richest
reward which this campaign has
brought.
In the face of an enemy re-
joicing in its victory, let the roll
be called for engagement, and
urge all friends of bimetallism
to renew their allegiance to the
cause. If we are right, as | be-
lieve we are, we shall yet triumph.
Until convinced of this error, let
each advocate of bimetallism
continue to work. Let all silver
clubs retain their organization,
hold regular meetings and cir
culate literature. Our opponents
have succeeded liz this campaign
and must now put their theories
to a test. Instead of talking
mysteriously about sound mon
ey" and IAN honest dollar,
they must now elaborate and de-
fend financial system. Every
step taken by them should be
publicly considered by the silver
clubs. Our cause has prospered
most whore the money question
has been longest discussed among
the people. During the next
four years it will be studied all
over this nation, even more than
it has been studied in the past.
The year 1900 is not far away.
Before that year arrives, inter
national bimetallism will cease
to deceive; before that year ar
rives, those who have called
themselves gold standard Demo-
Gratis will become biemetallists
and be with our party, or become
Republicans and thus open enc
mics; before that year arrives,
the trusts will have convinced
still more people that a trust is
menace to private welfare and to
the Republics safety; before that
year arrives, the evils of the gold
standard will be even more evil
dent than they are now, and the
people will be ready to demand
an American financial policy for
the American people, and will
join with us in the immediate
restoration of the free and un-
limited coinage of gold and sill
yer at the present legal ratio of
16 to 1, without waiting for the
aid or consent of any other ma
ton. w. j. BRYAN.
