"There is but one small chance to
save your life and that is through an
operation" was the awful prospect set
before Mrs. |. b. Hunt, of Lime Ridge,
Wis, by her doctor after vainly trying
to cure her ola frightful case of stomach
trouble and yellow jaundice. He did
not count on the marvellous power of
Electric Bitters to cure Stomach and
Liver troubles, but she heard of it,
took seven bottles, was wholly cured,
avoided surgeons knife, now weighs
more and feels better than ever. It is
positively guaranteed to cure Stomach,
Liver and Kidney troubles and never
disappoints. Price SOC at A. L. Pearre's

''The average typewriter works harder
than man who shovels COAL" said a
youth who ought to know. ''Let me
prove this by cold figures" he continued.
1.-THE average typewriter carriage weighs
four pounds. The average operator lifts
the carriage FIVE times a minute. This
means that he lifts 20 pounds every min
ute, or 1, POO pounds every hour. If be is
lucky, he works but eight hours a day,
The carriage is lifted on an average
seven inches every time it is raised, or
IT'S feet every hour, or about a quarter
of mile each day. But, as the hand
travels through as much space in lower
ing as in raising the carriage, and as the
strain is as great, we must double these
figures, which means that the average
operator lifts over two tons IA inches
each day, or two pounds one-haf mile"

Subsidy Next.
From tho st. Louis Republic.

FROM INC St LOUIS hePupnc
Having passed the Puerto Rican tariff
bill at the bidding of the Sugar and
Tobacco Trusts, the Republican Senate
and House Of Representatives will now
proceed TO enact into law the iniquitous
ship subsidy bill demanded by the Hanna
Payne. Frye Standard Oil syndicate.
II is astounding with what boldness
and utter disregard Of public sentiment
the administration party hurries from
one piece of monopoly legislation to
another. The ship subsidy bill consti.
tutes as fragrant an act ofspecial favorit'
ism for the benefit of the syndicates rs
was the high protective tariff bill in
the first place and the Puerto Rican
tariff bill itself, the shameful outcome
Of imperialist opportunity and syndicate
greed. The Republican party has plain
ly organized its machinery as factory
for the manufacture Of laws the sole
object OF which is the further enrich
ment Of the monopoly caste of which
Mark Hanna is the executive Brahman.
Whether the American people will re-
main longer In passive submission to
unjust and oppressive legislation of this
character is a question for the near fu.
ture to determine, The ship subsidy bill
will place upon them an additional tax
burden Of 5000, 900, 900. The measure is
30 drawn that its exclusive benehciaries
are found In the personel Of the Hanna
Payne. Frye Standard Oil syndicate. 1t
Is u clear and flagrant case Of robbing
the people for the benefit Of this select
gang Of monopolists.
It is understood now that the ship
subsidy bill will be given place AS "un.
finished business - on the senate calen
dar 80 that II may be promptly taken mp
and passed. 1t will be made, In effect, q
party measure. The people should
watch the well-oiled rapidity Of its pro-
gress toward enactment, II is notable
continuation Of the series of object
lessons proving the complete subser'
viency Of Republicanism to Trustism.
