Opinion Of an Eminent Jurist

Ballot reform in New York was nee
essary. says an eminent jurist, because
mere politicians by trade who had no
interest in government or politics ex-
cept to enrich and aggrandize them
selves sought perpetual control. There
are other excellent reforms besides that
of the ballot. Conspicuous among
them is the reform, promptly and thor
oughly effected, in disordered physi-
cal system by Hostetter's Stomach Bit
tiers, which counteracts tendencies to
serious disease bred by deficiency OF
vital stamina. irregularity of the bow
els, stomach, liver or kidneys, and in
quietude of the nerves. This sterling
medicine, which has for near half a
century won because it deserves popu
lar favor, is commended by physicians
of eminence who accord it their approx
al, not only for its excellent qualities in
remedial capacity but also for its
serviceable properties as a medicinal
stipulant. 1t soothes and strengthens
the nerves, and is far preferable to the
heavy, unmedicated stimuli of com
merce.

There is more catarrh in this sec
ton Of the country than all other dis
eases put together, and until the last
few years was supposed to be incura-
BILE. For a great many years doctors
pronounced it local disease, and pre-
scribed local remedies, and by con-
stantly failing to cure with local
treatment, pronounced it incurable.
Science has proven catarrh to be
constitutional disease, and, therefore,
requires constitutional treatment.
Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured by
F. ]. Cheney & Co.. Toledo, Ohio, is
the only constitutional cure on the
market. 1t is taken internally, in
doses from 10 drops to a teaspoonful.
It acts directly on the blood and mu-
cous surfaces of the system. They
offer one hundred dollars for any case
it fails to cure. Send for circulars
and testimonials. Address,

Sick poison is a poison which
makes you sick. 1t comes from the
stomach. The stomach makes it out
of undigested 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 food is 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 il
along with a few doses of Shaker
Digestive Cordial.
That's the cure of it. .
Shaker Digestive Cordial is deli
cious, healthful tonic cordial, made OF
pure medicinal plants, herbs and
wine.
1t positively cures indigestion and
prevents the formation of sick poison.

who have been led to expect better
things of the great American republic.
1t Is held by some members OF the
cabinet that we owe the insurgents
no consideration, because they have
not shown us any, but have acted inde-
pendently. Whatever truth there
may be in this, it is none the less true
that we owe them justice.
In view of the situation 1t is pity
the matter could not be reduced to
the statu quo before Dewey smashed
the Spaniards and captured the har-
Dor, in which event the happy solution
would be to leave the insurgents and
the Spaniards to fight it out between
themselves.
This incident will teach Uncle Sam
the advisability of keeping as far
aloof from the affairs of other nations
as possible, a lesson, by the way,
which the absence Of territory-grab-
bling and imperialistic tendencies in

istration has already pretty thorough

tended to be, 8 soldier; his service
was devoted to the civil interests Of
the country. He proclaimed the i'm
peria1 doctrine Of "blood and iron, "
and was its apostle to the last.
Germany as it is is practically the
creation of Bismarck. His first tri-
umph was gained as the result of the
Prusso- Austrian war, in 1866, by which
Austrian predominance in German af-
fairs was ended. The Franco Prussian
war followed with its splendid conse-
quences from German point of view
the creation of new German en-
pire, of which William /. was crowned
emperor. This war made Germany the
umpire of Europe. 1t placed Bis
marck at the summit of greatness. He
guided the destines of an empire
that could put million soldiers in
the field in week. He had crushed
one of the greatest of modern powers,
and avenged the wrongs the first Ma
poleon inflicted upon his people sew
enty years before.
Re remained at the height Of his
splendid power practically during the
life of William l., and until the pres
ent young "war lord" assembled the
throne. Young William was jealous
of the old master in statecraft who
he'd been his grandfather's wisest
counsellor. The aged chancellor re-
tired to private life, bearing his hon.
ors with him. This retirement he had
maintained in quiet dignity for eight
years-an heroic figure, the IDOL OF
every person speaking the German
tongue and honored by all the world.
