between Chicago and st. Paul, Mime
apols, the Superiors and Duluth is the
"North.Western Limited" which leaves
Chicago at $50 p. m. daily via the

Western R'y). Its equipment, which is
entirely new throughout, and embraces
Compartment Sleeping Cars, Buffet,
Smoking and Library Cars, standard

alton can conceive or mind invent for
the comfort and convenience of passen-

standard can meet US. You tell us
the great cities are in favor of the
gold standard. Burn down your
cities and your cities will grow up
again. But destroy our farms, and
the grass will grow in every city OF
the Union. (Great cheering.)
My friends, he continued, we shall
declare that this nation is able to
legislate' for it's people upon every
question without waiting for the
consent of any other nation on
earth, and upon that issue we expect
to carry every state in this nation.
Great cheering) 1t is the issue of
1776 over again. Our ancestors,
when only 100000, declared their
independence of every nation on
earth. Shall we when grown to TO-
100000, have less courage! 1t they
say we cannot have bimetalism until
some other nation assists, we reply,
we will restore bimetalism and let
England adopt it because the United
States has led the way. (Cheers.)
We shall answer their demand for
the gold standard by saying to them:
"You shall not press down upon the
brow of labor the crown of thorns.
You shall not cruelty mankind upon
a cross of gold" Tremendous
cheers.

PROFITABLE PUBLICITY.
Dull Time Advertising.

By NATHANIEL c. FOWLER, JR,, Doctor of
Publicity.
Some advertisers advertise a part of
the time.
Some advertisers advertise the whole
time.
The advertiser who advertises a part
of the time may make money.
The advertiser who advertises all ofthe
time almost always makes money.
1t doesn't make any difference what
you think, or what | think, when the
fact stares both of us in the face, that
while all who advertise may not make
money, few make money who do not adj
vertise, and that those who make the
most money, are those who advertise all
the time.
There may be several men in your
town who have fairly well succeeded
with advertising part of the time, but
if your town is like most towns, the men
who succeed all the time are the men who
advertise all the time.
When times aregood, advertising pays
because, although there be much adver
Using, there is much buying.
When times are bad, advertising pays
because, although there may be little buy
ing, there is little advertising, and the
man who advertises is more conspicuous
and stands more in a class by himself
and draws from those who don't adver
tise the business that might be theirs i
they did advertise.
Dull time advertising, sometimes pay
better than good time advertising, be
cause some people are buying all tn,
time, and they are more likely to buy o
the man who advertises, than of the
man who doesn't.
Times may be dull now.
Times ought to be dull now.
Times can't be good all the time.
If times are very dull in your town, i
is largely because the local merchant as
sists in making them dull by thinkin
they are dull.

According to a celebrated anatomist
there are upwards of 100000 little
glands in the human stomach. These
glands pour out the digestive juices
which dissolve or digest the food. Indi-
gestion is want of juice, weakness of
glands, need of help to restore the health
of these organs. The best and most nat
ural help is that given by Shaker Digest
i've Cordial. Natural, because it supplies
the materials needed by the glands to
prepare the digestive juices. Because it
strengthens and invigorates the glands
and the stomach, until they are able to
do their work alone. Shaker Digestive
Cordial cures indigestion certainly and
permanently. 1t does SO by natural
means, and therein lies the secret of its
wonderful and UNMARRIED success.

AS matter of fact, bimetalism is
a delusion, steadily passing out OF
acceptance. No one country has
been able to keep its gold and silver
currency circulating without dis
elimination side by side. and no
combination OF countries can do it,
any more than they can make ton
of coal worth ton of wheat. A ton
OF coal is today, say, worth five dol
lars and a ton of wheat twenty dol
lars. Legislation did not cause sill
yer to drop in 1873, and legislation
cannot raise it. The assault upon
the rich is stale story.
The real issue. christened free silver,
is cheap money.
Those who owe dollar, which for
sixty years has been gold dollar,
excepting in war time, want the gov
eminent to put the dollar stamp on
the amount of silver which is now
worth fifty cents. 1t isa proposition
that the entire army of debtors in
cluded in the United States, it's saw
ings banks, its insurance companies,
and its governments, city, state, and
national, shall go into bankruptcy
and pay fifty cents on the dollar.
For the United States to clip its
coin in the year 1896, and to cut the
dollar actually in half, would be
a swindle on a scale hitherto uncon-
ceived. Yet it is a devilishly alluring
proposition, and when it has the
sanction of national convention of
a historic American party, it begins
with an aspect of threatening re-
spectab ilty. Those who think that
it's defeat can be trusted to reason
alone make a mighty mistake. The
silver men will fight like tigers and
the fight against them must be 6ercer
yet New York Sun.

that they cannot support the ticket.

The Issue-Cheap rloney.

1t is commonly called free silver
coinage. Those who would not have
it seem too radical CALI bimetalism,
or the establishment of silver as a
money standard. Then they dress it
up with "reminiscences of the past,
when the silver dollar melted up
would sell for melted dollar ofgold,
promising return of that relation
with the making OF silver coinage
free again. Add the communist APP
peals to the inhammable to strike at
riches, Of which gold is the synonyme,
and to succor the poor by attacking
COLDS most conspicuous owners,
and the free-silver issue is before you.

The Bow Candidate.

The quick and high rewards OF the
oratorical faculty have never been in
any age or country more striklngly
exhibited than in the case of the
young presidential nominee of the
new democracy. Mr.. Bryan went
into the convention with absolutely
nothing but an attractive appear
ance and the gift of eloquent speech
upon which to base any claims for
consideration. He is but SO years
old, one year above the constitu-
tional requirement of years in pres
ident, and his public service is
bounded by four years in the national
house. He had been known in con-
gress as very eloquent speaker, and
he has been known since as lawyer
not very attentive to the profession,
more lately as an editor, and an or
ganizer of the free silver forces in Ne
braska, where he had captured the
democracy away from the admins
tration.
But through a single oratorical
effort, described by good judges who
witnessed it to be probably unparal-
leled in its power over vast assem-
blage, he leaps to the head of one of
the two great political parties, and
holds the next best chance of reach
ing the presidency. And this in an
age described as most unfavorable
for oratory-a reading, thinking,
critical age-which has brought the
written speech into congress and even
on the stump, and placed political
power in the hands of those exhibit
ing more sturdy and prosaic quail
ties.
Personally Mr.. Bryan is, so far as
we know, unobjectionable save on
the score of age and experience. And
his youth may not be called an in
super able objection. William E.
Russell was elected governor of Mas
sachusetts at an earlier age than
that, and on a slight experience in
the conduct of municipal govern
ment. He had the support of old
and conservative men and his service
as governor satisfied all, conspicu
ously so. Another case of extreme
youth and inexperience in office is
that of James H. Ecke]s, mere boy
who has administered the office o
controller of the currency with rare
success in a most difficult time

when made secretary of the treasury
by President Washington. Charles
lanes Fox was close to the head O
the British ministry when 80. Glad
