A NO TO BAG MIRACLE.
Physical Perfection Prevented
by the Use Of Tobacco.
An Old-Timer Cured After Using Tobacco
Twenty-Three Yearg--He Gained Twenty
Pounds in Thirty Days.

LAKE GENEVA, Wis. Especial. The
ladies Of our beautiful little town are max
ing an interesting and exciting time for
tobacco using husbands, since the injurious
effects Of tobacco and the ease with which
1t can be cured by No-To-Bac have been 80
plainly demonstrated by the cure of Mr..
F. @. Waite. In a written statement he
says: 81 smoked and chewed tobacco for
twenty-three years, and am sure that my
case was one Of the worst in this part Of
the country. Even after went to bed at
night, If woke up I would want to chew
or smoke. 1t was not only killing me, but
my wife was also ailing from the injurious
effects. Two boxes Of No-To-Bac cured
me, and have no more desire for tobacco
than have to Jump out Of the window. I
have gained twenty pounds in thirty days,
my wife is well and we are indeed both
happy to say that No-To- Bac is truly
worth its weight in gold touus."
The cure and Improvement in Mr.. Waite's
case is looked upon as q miracle-in fact, it
Is the talk OF the town and county, and 1t Is
estimated that over a thousand tobacco
users will be using No-To-Bac within few
weeks, The popularity about No.To-Bac
as medicine Is that the makers, the Ster-
ling Remedy Co., Of New York and Chi
cagO, authorize every druggist in America
to absolutely guarantee the use of three
boxes to cure or refund the money, and the
cost is so trifing, as compared with the ex-
pensive and unnecessary use Of tobacco,
that tobscco-using husbands have no good
excuse to offer when their wives insist upon
their taking No-To-Bac and getting results
in the way Of pure, sweet breath, wonder
ful improvement in their mental and phys
ical condition, with practical revitaliza-
tion Of their nicotinized nerves. No-To-Bac
not only cures the tobacco habit but re-
stores vitality and nerve Vigor. It is In
deed miracle worker for weak men, and
the public is warned against having imita.
tions palmed of on them, as the great sue
cess Of No-To-Bac has brought out host Of
counterfeits.

The Perkins Windmill Ollless and Storm.
Proof,


The abomination OF having to climb to
the top of a windmill tower with can OF
oil to prevent the machine from destroying
itself is entirely done away with by the
graphite bearings Of the Perkins windmill.
So complete has been the success Of these
mills that no oil-holes are made. They
have been used for over twenty years and
those first erected are still running. So
great is the confidence Of the company in
the power Of the Perkins to Withstand
storms that the warranty agrees to replace
all parts damaged by winds, even should
the wind be hurricane.
The Perkins has a compensation lever
and spring by which the work Of the mill
is equalized, the power developed while the
pump piunger is descending being stored
aud made to assist during the up-stroke.
The Perkins pumps are made with heavy
brass tubing and are full measure inside.
They are strong, have good valve action
and the valves are both readily removable
without disturbing other parts Of the

There is more catarrh in this section of

supposed to be incurable. For great many
years doctors pronounced it local disease,

stantly failing to cure with local treatment,
pronounced 1t incurable. Science has
proven catarrh to be constitutional
disease, and therefore requires constitu-
tional treatment. Halls Catarrh Cure,

THE SENATE REPUBLICAN.
Continued from page ~

An&S copy OF Cne paper, ana Che only
remark l care to add is that up to this
hour there has been no period of my
life when / was willing to join in the
organization of q great political party
based upon q single idea or a single
proposition. Yet am as earnest an
advocate Of the utilization of the free
and unlimited coinage Of silver as any
ono Of the gentlemen who attached
their names TO that paper"
Mr.. Butler: "The gentleman says
be will not help to organize or fight for
one idea. 1 think he had better try to
get his party to organize and stand for
at least one idea, for it has not a single
idea to-day. 1t would be to his credit
and to his party'S credit IL they had
one idea just one. They have de-
serted the principles they claimed to
cherish. They have deserted them bag
and baggage and gone over to the Re-
publican camp in everything but name.
Yes, if they had stood by the teachings
Of Thomas Jefferson and Andrew
Jackson there would have been no
Peoples party to-day. The Peoples
party came into existence to defend
and uphold the very principles which
your party has deserted. 1t came into
existence to defend and put into prac.
tice the great true principles of Democ-
racy and Republicanism as represented
by Jackson, jefferson and Lincoln,
and because your party, both old par
ties, have deserted and gone over to the
side of the monopolists and gold.buRs.
/ hope the Senator from Tennessee will
show his devotion to silver and the
people when he votes for President in
the next campaign, even if he will not
help us to organize the Senate against
the gold bugs.
"This invitation was sent to the
Senator from Tennessee and to fifty.
one other Senators on this floor. Fifty.
two Senators on this floor got that
invitation. What was the position of
the Peoples partyP If those fifty.tWo
men, elected as silver men, pledged to
vote against the gold standard, had
accepted our invitation, we could have
organized the Senate and put every
committee in the hands of the friends
OF silver. This would have enabled us
to have brought forward and passed a
free coinage bill and also to have re.
pesled the law under which President
Cleveland is about to issue more bonds.
We were anxious to do this. But only
q few Senators from the two old par.
ties accepted our invitation.
"The Senator from Tennessee de-
clined that invitation. Which course
was it the duty of the Peoples party
Senators to pursueP We had to do
one of three things. l want to be un.
derstood. We had either to vote with
the Democrats to organize the Senate,
Or vote with the Republicans to organ.
ize the Senate, or to stand alone. We
decided to vote with neither side. We
had invited the men on both sides
who iclaimed to agree with US
on financial questions to coop
crate with US, and both sides had
refused. But the Senator from Ten.
nessee makes the point that we re-

them, and the Senator from Tennessee
knows it, and he would be forced to
admit it If he dared to say anything
now.
81 repeat that IL we had voted as the
Senator from Tennessee says we ought
to have voted we would virtually have
been voting for the Democrats, and he
knows It. / wish to state right here
that there are two reasons why we did
not do so. The first reason 10 that we
expected that the Senator from Ten
nessee and others on the other side who
have made such loud professions for
free silver and for financial reform
would at least be among the foremost
If not the foremost to join hands with
us In trying to organize the Senate for
silver and the people and against the
gold standard monopoly.
"Mr. President, we were sorely dissp.
pointed, and on top Of it we see inter
views in the newspapers from gentle
men onthe other side saying the coun-
try will &C to perditiOn if We do not
have free coinage, and yet in the same
interviews saying that If their party
nominstes q gold bug for President
next time they will bow down and lick
his feet and vote for him. There is
something wish to say now and to say
with emphasis. would not say It, for
l dislike to say unpleasant things, but
for the fact that believe the situation
In this country is 80 perilous with re,
spect to the welfare Of the people that
/ ought to say it. 1t is this: Free coin
age would have been secured long ago
If 1t had not been for those who claim
to be free-colnsge men, but who Sscrl-
fee it for party success. If these men
would stand for free coinage, party or
no party, the people of this country
would have had free coinage before
now. It Is the men who talk free coin
age In campaigns, but bow to the party
lash in their national convention. when
gold bugs, who have prevented the
passage of free-colnsge legislation, tell
them which way to vote. Such men
are the worst enemies of free coinsge,
although they profess to be its friends.
"Mr. President, there is one other
reason If the Democratic party had
more votes here than the Republicans,
we would have acted just as we did.
WhyP Because by not voting We
would have allowed the party that had
the most votes to take the offices, since
they would not help US. We decided
that we would not help minority that
would not help us to organize, but that
between the two sides we would allow
those who had the greater number of
votes to take the organization before
we would help those who were in the
minority to take it-s minority that
had refused to raise its hands to help
free coinage when we called upon them
to help US.
