Millions Given Away.

1t is certainly gratifying to the public
to know of one concern in the land who
are not afraid to be generous to the
needy and the suffering. The proprie-
given away over ten million trial bottles
of this great medicine and have the sat
isfaction of knowing it has absolutely
cured thousands of hopeless cases.
Asthama, bronchitis, hoarseness and all
diseases of the throat, chest and lungs
are surely cured by it. Call on

Chauncey Depew in speech before
the Hamilton club in Chicago recently
paid the following truthful tribute to
the Republican party: "Fhe Republi-
cin parry is the one party in The last
% Years which has possessed the initia-
tive, which has shown constructive
genius, which has been able to turn
panic into prosperity, which has devise d
the ways and means under every stress
of peace and war 70 make our country
great and strong" The people know
that every word of that is true, and with
their ballots they are going to assist the
Republican party to add greater honors
to that record.

The court martial which tried Chap
lain McIntire of the ship Oregon, on
charge of slandering naval officers in a
speech In the city of Denver, Colorado,
has found him guilty and he is to be
dismissed from the service. The defense
in extenuation was that the chaplain
was under the influence of quinine and
alcohol taken as a medicine to such an
extent that he did not know what he
was talking about. The medicine in the
case was evidently worse than the
disease. Whiskey and quinine is proba-
bly, responsible for much in the way of
loose talk, in connection with the army
and navy. 1t would be well if this bane-
full effect were confined to talk alone.

Lumber may be called the great winter
crop of New England just as hay is the
summer crop The man who is cutting
and hauling his wood is farming Just as
truly as when he cures and loads his hay.
Many young man has paid for his farm
by the sales from his wood lot. Lumber
ing has enabled farmers to keep satisfac-
tory help until the next season of cultiva-
ton. Il has brought in dollars at the
season when dollars were more scarce,
and few crops will turn larger per cent
OF profit for the expense of growing.

There is wide difference in the cost
of balloting in Maine the past year by

towns as "more than $50, 0,000," while the
Lewiston Journal makes it $l2,40650,
after going over the different items max

the killing of n Prominent Mer-
chant of Ottawa, o.

ottawa, O., Dec. s. - Solomon Wise,
a prominent merchant here, has been
found dead in his clothing store with a
bullet through his breast. The indica-
tions point to a murder.
A. w. Weller, cashier of the A. Bruon
& Co. bank, was arrested on suspicion
and made confession saying that he
shot Wise accidentally. He said that
he had his revolver in his overcoat pocle-
ct and was showing Wise how he could
shoot man without taking his gun
from his pocket, when the weapon was
discharged, the bullet passing through
Wise's heart. Weller purchased the re-
yolver Wednesday,.
