The republican papers of
the state don't seem to ad-
mire the prospective appoint
ment of Hon. Harry Lands
to the Penitentiary warden
ship. Probably no man in the

Hence the hatred from a po-
litical standpoint.

herlted from him no weakness nor ten
dency to disease. The healthy old man
is the man who has throughout his life
kept his digestion good and his blood
pure. Not one in thousand does do
it. Germs go through the healthy body
without effect. Let them once find
lodgment or let them find weak spot,
they will develop by the million and
the blood will be full of them. Instead
of giving strength to the tissues, it will
force upon them innutritious matter.

more susceptible he is to disease. Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery is
the only medicine that absolutely and
infallibly cures all blood diseases, and
almost all diseases are blood diseases.
1t isn't medicine for some one par

all the germs of disease, and replaces
impurities with rich, red blood.
