OF the difficulties of the cold in win

I have just talked with Mr.. Will

Dawson lately, who makes light of the
difficulty from the cold. He says one
can work with the thermometer 40 to
SO below, though it is more comfort
able if only 20 to 30, but below so he
thinks it best to stay in the house.
Mr.. Wilson says the snow, when he

Dig down to the cause of of your
sickness, if you want to get we'll and
stay we'll. Most likely it's indigestion.
The irritating poisons of fermenting,
putrid food, left in the stomach by in
digestion, cause headache, neuralgia,
nervousness, dizziness, stomachache,
nausea, irritability, and all the other
well-known symptoms of indigestion.
They also cause many pains and
disorders which are often laid to other
causes and hence are not easily cured.
But as soon as the poisons are re-
moved, all these symptoms and dis
orders disappear, because there is
nothing left to cause them. Nothing
succeeds in this like Shaker Digestive
Cordial, because it prevents the undi-
gested food from fermenting in the
stomach and helps the stomach to di-
gest it food.

No man is better known and liked in that
rich tier of Illinois counties, Of which Peoria
is the CENTRE than genial Chester s. Harring-
ton, of Princeville, Ill. For many years Mr.
Harrington has travelled through the country
on profitable journeys as an itinerant mer-
chant, and everywhere he goes he is given a
hearty welcome by the people who depend
upon his visits for the purchase of the neces-
saries, and some of the luxuries, of life.
Mr.. Harrington is a veteran of the war,
and from this fact is made the remarkable
experience which he related at the Trans
crypt Office recently. His story, telling of
the evils of which the Civil War was but
the beginning in his own, and in thousands
of other cases, was as follows:
81 served three years in the 124th Illinois,
enlisting at Kewanee, Ill. l was in Libby
Prison, and suffered, like many another North
ern soldier. Until recently 1 was a member
of the Princeville Post, of the GAR.
'sThe strain of army life did its work in
undermining my health, although the col
lapse did not come for years. For some time
suffered from general debility and nervous
ness, so badly that l could not sleep. For
fifteen years my sleepswas completely broken
up. Indigestion resulted and my misery in
creased. My eyes began to fail, and as my
body lost vitality my mind seemed to give
way also. l could scarcely remember events
that happened but a few weeks before.
For two years l was untitled for bust
ness. I was just able to creep around during
the greater part of this time, and there were
times when ] could not get up at all. My
brother is doctor, but all his efforts to help
me failed to give me any relief
I tried a number of remedies, without
avail. Finally, having read articles regard
ing cures that had been effected by DR.. Will
iams' Pink Pills for Pale People, I decided
to try them. That was in 1896. l bought
q box and took the pills according to in
structions. Just four days later had the

Something to Know

1t may be worth something to know
that the very best medicine for restor-
ing hat tired out nervous ytem to a
healthy vigor is Electric Bitters. This
medicine is purely vegetable, acts by
giving tone to the nerve centers in the
stomach, gently stimulates the liver
and kidneys, and aids these organs in
throwing off impurities in the blood.
Electric Bitters improve the appetite,
aid digestion, and is pronounced by
those who have tried it as the very best
blood purifier and nerve tonic. Try it.

STAND BY YOUR TOWN.
Some Excellent Advice for All to
Consider.

The following article, taken from a
trade journal, contains so many good
points and truths, that we reproduce
it for the edification of The GAzETTE's
numerous readers:
ut is true that your home institu-
tions are located in town for the pur-
pose of making a livelihood from the
sale of good, manufacturing, etc., to
his neighbors. While this is CONNER
cial in one relation, there is another
relation that must not be overlooked
in justice to the dealer and patrons of
such institutions. They bear the brunt
of local effort. They pay money for
public improvement. They stand for
the interests of the town. They sup
ports movements for better local con-
dition by standing with the enterpris-
ing people of a community for those
thing that give comfort and security.
They believe in progress as rule, be-
cause they know progressive people
always get ahead.
"And now what of the debt the pub
lie owes them, the business man as a
class. What would we do without
them. They make money advances
on stock of goods, factory, etc.. and
assume all the risks of your patron :
age. Some of these people are mean
enough to turn their patronage away
from the home merchants or business
industries on the theory that they can
save money by patronizing a supply
house or other out of town concerns.
There was never more false idea ad-
vanced.
"The man who buys of a supply
house takes from his community the
money that should be left there, and
plants it in another town, and prob
ably in another State. It goes out
side of the town where it might be of
service in building up the value of his
property by building up other people.
We overlook this great benefit by so
short-sighted policy. We assume
that when we save a dollar we have
made dollar. That isn't true, for we
may have lost a dollar in trying to
save one. Our relations with our fell
low citizens are very close. What ben
efits him will benefit us, even if we are
unconscious of the fact that the fellow
citizen is being benefited. Every time
farmer paints barn he helps every
farm in that section to hold it's value.
Every time neighbor buys of home
store and pays cash, he helps the COM
munity in which he lives by strength
ening the hand of the merchant, who
is sure to spend some of his money for
public good. Patronize town industry
and bel p your town."

A total of nearly 500 OOO, 600, which
represents the business since the Elgin
board was organized, is something of
which the members and the district
feel proud. The Elgin district, as

board and none has been so sold for
years, but, nevertheless, the industry

The Dying Parson.

The pastor of struggling church
was lying in his bed; three months
arrears of salary was pillowing als
head; his couch was strewn with
tradesmen bills that pricked his heart
like thorns, and nearly all life S com
mon ills were goadipg him like horns.
The deacon sat beside him as the
moments ticked away, and bent his
head to catch the words the parson
had to say:
eff I never shall arise from this
hard bed on which I lie; if my warfare
is accomplished and it's time for me
to die; take message to the janitor
before pass away-tell him fires are
for December and tho windows are for
MAY. Tell him when he lays the no
tices upon the pulpit's height, TO
shove them meath the cushion, far
out of reach and sight. And when he
hears the preachers voice, in whispers
soft expire, that is the time to slam
the doors and rattle at the fire.
"And now the deacons-tell the
deacons, too, through all the busy
week, to hang their boots up in the
sun to hatch Sunday squeak; with
steel-shod canes to poke the man who
comes to church. to snore, and use the
boys who laugh in church to mop the
vestry floor.
"These's another, too-the woman
who talks the sermon through; tell.
her | do not mind her buzz-my lis
teniDg days are few. Tell her to leave
her mouth at home some Sunday, for
a minute, and listen to text, at least
Without whisper.
"And tell the board of trustees not
to weep with bitter tears, for | cant
be any deader than they have been for
years. And tell half my congregation
that I'm glad salvation's free; for
that's the only chance for them be-
tween the desk and me.
aAnd farewell to the choir. How
the name ny memory racks If they
could get up their voices as they do
get up their backs Why, the stars
would join their music and the welkin
would rejoice, while the happy con-
gregation could not hear single voice.
Buttellthem | forgive them, forgive
them, and oh tell them that | said |
wanted them to come and sing above
me-wAen I'm dead.
His voice grew faint and hoarse,
but it gave laughing break, kind
Of gurgling chuckle as minister might
make. But the deacon rose up slowly,
and sternly he looked down upon the
parsons twinkliDg eyes with most
portentous frown. And he stiff1y
said, "Good morning. as he walked
out in his ire, for the deacon was the
leader Of that amiable choir.-Frons

And Save Endless .Suf-
fering which Winter
Brings.

The most offensive of all dis
eases becomes more intense as cold
weather approaches. In fact,
many who have been under treat
ment for so long, and during the
summer feel little discomfort from
the disease, are almost persuaded
that they have been cured. But
the first chilling blast of winter
proves that the disease is still with
them, and as the winter advances,
their Catarrh grows in severity.
Those who have felt only q slight
touch of Catarrh may be sure that
only cold weather is needed to de-
velop the disease. What appears
to be only a bad cold will prove
more difficult to cure than for
merly, and will return with more
frequency, until before long the
disease is fully developed.
"For years I.suffered from severe
case of Catarrh, and took several kinds
of medicines and used various local ap-
plications, but they had no effect what
ever. I was induced to try S. S. S.
