Wages paid to workingmen in the
United States were larger in amount
last year that in any previous year of
the nations history. And the wages
were paid in the highest standard of
money. Democratic success promises
less wages in cheaper money. No
laboring man should vote for such a
program.-Little Falls Transcript.
And yet the managers of the
democratic campaign are making
almost frantic efforts to convince
the working men that their pros
porous Condition is imaginary
Like a certain school of healers,
they insist that prosperity does no
exist-the laborers only think so.
They are not really at work at good
wages they may think they are,
but it is false and delusive. The
democrats will never succeed in
playing laboring men for fools, try
as they may.

For Every Household.

The most important of all the con-
tents of the family medicine chest is a
good hniment-one that is swift and
certain in action and that stops pain
useful for the boys bruises as we'll as
for the parents twinges of Rheuma-
tism, and that will eradicate the Stub
born cold that settles on the lungs.
The best 1iniment that can be found is
DR.. Bruess' Powerful, Penetrating
Peerless Remedy. 1t contains abso.
lutely no harmful drugs, but is a
simple compound, easily applied, and
all it's name would indicate-powerful
in driving out pain. Hanson & Emer-
son, our popular druggists, have Sc
cured large consignment of this
wonderful remedy. To show the con-
fidence they have in the virtues of their
liniment, Messrs. Bruess & Co. have
generously included a large number of
sample treatments to be given free to
all interested, that they may test be-
fore purchasing.
