Hired A Special.

A good story is told on two.of the
Democratic aspirants for the govern
orship-General G. c. Watts and
G. Ralphsnyder. 1t is said that re.
Gently both candidates stopped over
at tho same hotel and were awaiting
the departure of an early morning
train for the county seat of neigh
boring county, where convention
was to DE held the following day.
Next morning at early dawn Gener-
al Watts was at the station awaiting
the departure of the train, while his
opponent was sleeping soundly.
Colonel Ralphsnyder did not reach
the depot until the train had gone.
Mr.. Ralphsnyder chartered "spe-
cial," had the regular train side
tracked, and in less than 40 minutes
the special sped by the train bear
ing General Watts and party lying
on side track. General Watts on
reaching Elizabeth was amazed to
discover his opponent standing on
the rear platform of the depot ad-
dressing crowd of 1000 voters on
the silver question.
General Watts gave Col. Ralph
synder his hand, and both laughed
heartily, but the swift ride on the
engine was never mentioned by eth
er. 1t is said they now travel to-
gether in central West Virginia and
occupy the same room at night.

Keep the Blood Pure.

The Importance of keeping the

ly known, and yet there are very few
people who have perfectly pure blood
The faint of scrofula, salt rheum OF
other foul humor is inherited and
transmitted for generations, causing
untold suffering. We also accumulate
poison and germs of disease from the
air we breathe, the food we eat or the
water we drink. There is nothing
more conclusively proved than the
power of Hoods Sarsaparilla over all
diseases of the blood. 1t not only ex-
pels every trace Of scrofula or salt
rheum and drives out the germs of
malaria but it yitalizes and enriches
the blood. Particularly after attacks
of scarlet fever, diphtheria, measles
and whooping cough, Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla plays an important part in build
ing up the wasted tissues and giving
needed strength and vigor to the en-
tire system.

Great Oaks from Little Acorns Grow

Is line from the trite old verse we
used to recite in our school boy days
1t has a forcible application to those
small ailments which we are apt to
disregard until they reach formida-
bic proportions. A fit of Indigestion,
a ''slight" attack of constipation, it is
assumed, will soon pass off, but is
very apt to get worse, and in the
meantime is neglected until the all
ment becomes chronic, and then, If not
entirely eradicated, is a constant an
noyance and menace oflworse, conse-
quences, for diseases, recollect, beget
one another. How much wiser to re
sort to course of Hostetter's Stom-
ach Bitters at the outset of the mala-
dy than to temporize with it at the
start, or treat it with violent reme-
dies In its maturity. Be on time with
disease, or it may s'floor" you. Ma
larious, rheumatic and kidney COM
plants, dyspepsia, constipation, bill
iousness and nervousness are all dis
orders of rapid growth, and should be
''nipped In the budr by timely re-
sort to the Bitters.
