ex-Republican member of Congress
from Ohio and president of the Clt-
zens' Savings Bank, of Columbus, who
was on the State stump and did effec-
tive work in the campaign of '96 for

that the Philadelphia convention
nominated a civil fraud Tor the head
of the ticket and military fraud for
the tail of the ticket.
PATRICK EGAN, late Minister to
Chilli, under Harrison, announces that
he is ready to take the stump for
Bryan, as he is opposed to the policy
Of imperialism and militarism inaugu-
rated by the Mckinley administra-

SENATOR WELLINGTON, of Mary
land, a Republican, announces that he

HUNGER IS THE BEST SAUCE"

Yet some people are never hungry. What
ever they eat has to be "forced down."
There is, of course, something wrong
with these people. BY taking Hoods Sar-
saparilla a short time they are given an
appetite and then they enjoy eating and
food nourishes them. If you find your
appetite failing, just try bottle of
Hoods. 1t is true stomach tonic and
every dose does good.

in which she and her family were held
was testified to by the calling of hun
dreds at their home at a recent reception,
the occasion being the fiftieth anniversary
of her marriage.
She was always ready to respond to ap
peals to assist in any good work that was
going on in the community, and being
possessed of a fine judgment combined
with great industry she became leader
in the organization with which she was
connected. She became member of this
association in the early years of it's
formation and served at one time as it's
valued president, and she never lost in
terest in it, even after physical infrmi-
ty prevented her taking an active part
in it's proceedings.
Thus beloved and honored in life our
friend surrounded by her family, passes
peacefully into her Heavenly Home.
Therefore be it resolved by this associa-
ton,
First. That we humbly submit our will
to our Heavenly Fathers, knowing that
He doeth all things well.
Second. That in the removal of our
friend this association has lost a most
faithful and interested member, one
WHOSE JuQSueuI was always SOUGHT, anu
duly appreciated, and that the communi-
ty has lost one of it's most charitable
members.
Third. That we wish to express to the
bereaved husband and children the heart
felt sympathy Of this association, and to
assure them that in This sad hour we
are partakers of their sorrow.
Fourth. That a copy of these resolu-
lions be spread upon the books of the
association, copy be sent to the family
and also a copy to each of the daily pa
pers of the city with a request for their
publication.
