out a few persons which the follow
ing extract will strike right between
the eyes. Everybody read it through.
A little spark floats from the wick
of a candle carried by a servant-maid,
and rests upon a window curtain.
Soon the room is ablaze, then the
house. The fire spreads to the neigh
boring buildings, and the fiendish
flames lay in smoldering ruins an en-
tire block. Families are unhoused,
citizens bankrupted, and the city
defaced. Now, a thoughtless word
is uttered by a tattling neighbor. 1t
may be simply a but" or an eff"
or some other distinctive con
junction. The word travels and null
tiplies as it goes. In the end a family
is divided, neighbors and friends are
separated and enstranged, and a COM
munity shocked and scandalized.
Thus regulations have been blasted
in one wide, wasting destruction. OF
all the contemplate creatures that
infest and infect society, the babblers,
tattlers, backoiters and slanderers
are the most dangerous and detest-
able,

One of the most remarkable strikes
in the history of the tailoring business
has been inaugurated in the east.
$4,000 men and women, who have had
their wages reduced 50 per cent. in
the last year, have quit work. They
argue that. it is only a question of
time and they might as well starve in
idleness as in the workshop, where
they are forced to work sixteen hours
a day, without pay enough to buy
food for their families. Is it any
wonder there is revolution in the
ranks of the laboring classes?

Wonderful Cures in Wisconsin,

DIR. Warner-Dear Sir: Last March
my children were taken down with
the measles, which left four of them
with very bad coughs. My Oldest
daughters case became so alarming
that we feared she would have quick
consumption. Tried many different
medicines recommended for coughs
and lung complaints, but all to no
purpose. One of my neighbors recon-
mended your White Wine of Tar Syr-
up, as one bottle had cured nearly
every man in camp where he worked
OF severe colds, and my family COM
menced taking it. In three days we
saw a great change for the better and
they did not use the whole of one
bottle before their coughs were cured

A Silver Republican Speaks.

State Senator Gorrell of Jasper
county is one of the many Iowa re-
publicans who, holding the welfare
of the country and of prosperity SUI
perior to that of party, voted for w.
j. Bryan, and are in the timetable
ranks to stay until the cause of hon
estY and humanity, has been won. In
a letter to the Des Moines News he
scathingly arraigns the political Or
ganization with which he was so long
affiliated, and shows that from a par
ty OF of the the people it has degene-
rated into a mere plant tool of
plutocracy. The letter is thoughtful,
vigorous and ably written, and it en-
bodies facts and enunciates princi.
pies with which the electorate of
Iowa needs TO become familiar. 1t
is a notable and valuable contribu-
ton to the discussion of fundamental
public issues. Senator Gorrell says:
THE closing of one of the most me-
morable if not commendable sessions
Of the legislature in the history of
Of Iowa is attended with it's full de-
gree OF interest. The majority party
has placed itself on record as an
organization of blunderers, MANY of
whose legislative steps have been
marked with expensive and danger.

For Your Protection.

Catarrh ''cures" in liquid form to
be taken internally, usually contain
Mercury orIodide of Potassa, or both
which are injurious if too long taken.
Catarrh is a local, not a blood disease,
caused by cold and damp weather.
1t starts in the nasal passages. Cold
in the head, if repeatedly neglected,
results in catarrh. Ely's Cream Balm
is the acknowledged cure for these
troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug.
