As Seen by Others.

deal of enthusiasm manifested at
Dickinson at the immigration meet
ings that were held there. Mr.. T. s.
Underh1ll of Antelope engineered
the meetings, and certainly they
spoke we'll for his engineering abili.
ties. At the court house in the af.
ternoon a house full of people lis.
tened to immigration talk for four
hours. and in the evening the opera
house was filled to hear some more.
Papers were read by farmers, ladies,
and others, and a good feeling was
manifested. Stark county has large
resources, and it is one of the few
counties that has gained population
every year for several years back.
Stark and Morton have been growing
when other counties have stood still.
1t is exceedingly gratifying to see so
much life shown in the immigration
movement ut Dickinson-a point
which might have been supposed to
be Indifferent to the question.-Man.

will have been in the U. S. senate
thirty years if he fills the term to
which he is now elected. He
served some eight years in the
state legislature, and is unques-

Allison is much mentioned as a

However, the office is not sought

people place him.

ALL able-bodied peddlers are

ALL able-bodied peddlers are
required by law-section 1738-to
procure a license from the county
auditor before offering for sale or
exchange in any community any
goods or merchandise. A nom
compliance with the requirements
of the law is punishable by fine,
or imprisonment, or both. Any
person has a right to ask to see a
license and if the proper docu-
ment cannot be produced it would
be we'll to inform the party that
the law requires it. This section
does not prevent the farmer from
selling his own produce, or the
rancher from selling his own meat,

Few people know that all plants contain di.
gestive principles. They cannot absorb their
food until it is digested any moro thar animals
can. The Mount Lebanon Shakers have learned
the art of extracting and utilizing these diges.
tive principles. and it is for this reason that
their Shaker Digestive Cordial is meeting with
such phenomenal success in the treatment of
dyspepsia. The Shaker Digestive Cordial not
only contains food already digested, but it also
contains digestive principles which aid the di-
gestion of other foods that may be eaten with it.
A single 10 cent sample bottle will be sufficient
to demonstrate it's value. and we suggest that
every suffering dyspeptic make q trial of it.
