POLITICAL ANNOUNCEMENTS

A doctor can tell you exactly what he thinks is the matter with you. If he fully realized just one great truth he would come nearer to doing this. The thing he doesn't fully appreciate is the fact that the man with pure blood and good digestion can never have anything very serious the matter with him. If you get your blood in good condi- ton, and keep it rich, and pure and whole. some, you will thereby cure almost any dis ease with which mankind are afflicted A sewer may be pretty dirty, but if you keep continually flushing it with pure water, you will eventually get it clean, The body may be full of impurities, but in the natural course of events these impurities will be excreted i; and, if they are not replaced by other i'm purities, the body will become puEa and healthy. If you continually pump pure. rich blood into a diseased organ, the disease will gradually disappear and soundness and health of the tissues will be restored.
 That is the theory and that is the actual result of the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. It doesn't make any difference what your doctor calls your dis ease, the ''Golden Medical Discovery" will cure it and it will cure it by making the blood pure and rich, by stimulating the di- gestive organs, invigorating the liver, and by soothing and strengthening the nerves. It is the most wonderful blood maker and fesh-builder that has ever been known. It is the most successful medicine of its kind that was ever prepared.
 Sometimes in connection with the "Golden Medical Discovery it is wise to take few of pr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. They are the only pos itive and permanent cure for constipation and as long as constipation is present health cannot be fully restored. Frequently the Pellets " are all that are needed, One isa gentle laxative and two mild cathartic. They are perfectly natural in their action and cause no pain or Sriping.

CHAIRMAN MACDONALD.

Clan Mcleod Pass Resolutions Con
 deming the Statement That Chairman
 Macdonald of the Town Committee
 Was Actuated by Anything Else Than
 Charitable Objects in His Efforts to
 Aid a Brother Scot in Distress,
 The other week an old and esteem- ed member of Clan Mcleod, Order of Scottish Clans, was burned out of his home by fire and left with next to nothing in the world to build it up again. The case was brought under the notice of MT. James fl. Macdonald, who consulted with the chief officers of both the Scottish societies, with view of taking some steps towards helping the member in his misfortune. The result of that consultation was that the officers of each society agreed to call @ meeting to consider what action might be taken in the matter. The of ficers had difficulty in finding a suitable meeting place, and in order to save the societies any unnecessary expense in hiring hall MT. Macdonald offered the use of the republican headquarters in the Hoadley building This offer was accepted and the meeting called. MT. Macdonald was unanimously ap- pointed chairman, and committee Was appointed to inquire into the circum- stances ofthe case and report. An at tempt has ben made by some party or parties to inform the press that MT. Macdonald was actuated by other than charitable objects and that an attempt had been made to pull certain of the Scotchmen into the republican camp. It was also stated that on Nc Macdon- aid and MT. MacLauchlin attempting to make an explanation that they were met with fusilade of envelopes bear ing the stamp of republican headquar- ters, which were shaken in their face. There is no shadow of truth in this statement, and no such attempt was ever made. Clan Mcleod took action in the matter at their last meeting and repudiated the statement that any at tempt had been made to draw the members of that organization into po- litics, and that they firmly and unan- imously believed that Brother Macdon- aid was actuated by sincere, honest and charitable motives in trying to help brother Scot in distress, and that the meeting sympathizes with Brother
 Macdonald in the wholly uncalled for position in which he had been placed | before the eyes of the public in the | matter.

STOLE THE SENATOR'S SPEECH
An Amusing Incident of the Presiden-
 tial Campaign of 1876.

An Amusing Incident of the Presiden-
 tial Campaign of 1876.
 Back in the cara0aign of 1876 I was making tour of the west with Oliver P Morton and George Sheridan, one of the brightest speakers the American platform has ever known, who accom- panied him to do the funny business. Senator Morton would usually talk for an hour-a dull, turgid, heavy discus sion of the financial problem, followed by an attack upon the democrats of the south for their inhuman treatment of the negro. By the time he had finished the audience would be soaked with wise advice and valuable information. but every spark of enthusiasm would be quenched. Then George Sheridan would take the platform and wake them up. For an hour they would roar with laughter or sit with their mouths open, fascinated by his flights of fancy. It was 9. rare combination.
 One night after we had been out for a couple of weeks, I think at Fort Wayne, Sheridan said: Senator, I wish you would let me speak first to- night; want to go out into the coun- try with some friends"
 "All right" replied Senator Morton. cheerfully. You arrange 1t with the chairman of the meeting"
 But when Sheridan took the plat form and began to deliver Mortons speech, word for word, as the latter had delivered it every night for fort night, the senator became very uneasy He gave all Morton's arguments against the imitation of the currency and in favor of the resumption of spe- cie payments; he recited all the state ments concerning the outrages in the south; he repeated all of the personal "reminiscences of his experiences as governor of Indiana during the war, which the senator was accustomed to work in, until the latter was almost paralyzed with chagrin and amaze ment; and finally, when he reached g point in the discussion of the financial problem where Morton was accus- toned to compare Pompeian gold coin with a United States greenback, he turned to the astonished victim of this practical joke and said in an un- dertone: Let's have that coin The senator handed it over without nur- mur, and, when Sheridan had recited the eloquent peroration which he all ways used at the close of his speech and had taken his seat Senator Mor- ton hobbled over to the desk on his two canes and said:
 Ladies and Gentlemen I am the victim of practical joke. Realizing the gravity of the issues before the American people, 1 came into this campaign with a carefully prepared speech, which have delivered in Gene ral Sheridan's hearing so often that he has committed it to memory, and he has delivered it here tonight much better than I could have delivered it. He also is in the habit. of making the same speech. and I have heard it many times, but I lack his memory and could not repeat 1t to save my life. I will therefore appeal to him not to | punish you as he has punished me, but to give us some of his Ssories,"
 Then the great statesman sat down, thoroughly knocked out. Sheridan

GENUINE HARD LUCK


 Speaking of hard luck" said the agent of piano firm, q believe I can give you a story that's ust little bit worse than any you've heard this sea- son.
 Of course, no one believed him, but it was known that he had q good imagi- nation, so he was told to go ahead.
 Some one who was, fond of a joke steered me against morose old farm er," he explained, and I undertook to sell him piano. I had got pretty well warmed up to my subject before learned that he was a bachelor, who lived all alone on his farm, and that the whole thing was intended as joke on me. I would have given up then if he had not held out little hope.
 |" Stranger he said, the trouble with me is that I ain't got no one to play a piano. If you'll get me some one to play it.
 GA wife, for instance I.suggested. He intimated pretty strongly in an- swer to that suggestion that any self respecting man with wife ought to have a piano, and that he would get one mighty quick under those circum- stances"
 "I know the story" broke in one of the listeners. 'I've heard it before Just to show the practical jokers what you could do you went out and found a wife for him"
 That's what did" admitted the agent.
 "Well, you'd better get a new story. Every sewing machine agent in the country is telling this one, just to show what a cracking fine salesman he is"
 'I guess they're not telling this one," retorted the agent
 q guess they are; I've heard it."
 ''Then finish it.
 "Why, you got him the wife and sold him the piano"
 Not on your life. got him a. wife and found out too late that she already had a piano, and on ths strength of that he declined to buy another. That's why speak of it as hard luck. 5 Chicago Post.
