Sick-poison is poison which makes
you sick. 1t comes from the stomach.
The stomach makes it out of undi-
gested food.
The blood gets it and taints the
whole body with it. That's the way of
it.
The way to be rid of it is to look
after your digestion.
If your foods all properly digested,
there will be none left in the stomach
to make sick-poison out Of
If your stomach is too weak to see
to this properly by itself, help it along
with few doses of Shaker Digestive
Cordial.
That's the cNre of it.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is a deli
cious, healthful, tonic cordial, made
of pure medicinal plants, herbs and
wine.
1t positively cures indigestion and
prevents the formation of slck-poison.
At druggists. Trial bottles 10 cents.

SOUND MONEY MEN HAVE HOPE,
They Feel Encouraged Over the Outlook
for Chicago.

Sound money Democrats in Wash
lngton have discovered in the situation
many circumstances warranting them
in entertaining new hopes that the
silverites may yet be headed off in
their party-wrecking plans at Chicago.
First and foremost, of course, is the
sudden determination of the sound
money leaders to organize systemat-
ically for a desperate struggle against
the adoption of a rotor platform at
Chicago and the nomination of a
rotor candidate.
There can be no doubt that such an
organization, directed by leader of
the capacity and personal popularity
of Mr. Whitney, will prove very effect
i've in staying the stampede for free
silver among all but the most radical
and desperate delegates to the Chicago
convention.
The Southern silver leaders are for
the most part politicians who derive
their bread and butter from politics.
Many of them are for free coinage,
because they think it winning issue,
rather than from any conviction that
it is right. All that will be necessary
to cool their enthusiasm will be to
prove to them that they are mistaken,
and that committing the Democratic
party to, free coinage In this campaign
will mean the certain defeat of its
national ticket and the transfer to the
Republicans for years to come of the
control Of several hitherto Democratic
states, South as well as North.
The sound money leaders now or
ganizing under the direction of Mr..
Whitney will undoubtedly be in a po-
sitlon when they go to Chicago to
convince the delegates to the conven-
tion that no future event can be more
certain than the defeat of the Chicago
nominees if they declare for free com.
at I6 to I. This will be the fate of a
free silver ticket, no matter who the
nominee may be, whether it is Boes
or Stevenson or Teller or Bland,
