NO WHlTEWAsH FOR THE CzAR.

So badly alarmed ls Gear Anderson
because OF the increasing prospect OF
defeat for the ticket which he has
forced upon his party, that he has
appealed to Gen. Dick TO come home
from Washington and help him to
drive independent members OF the
party TO the support OF the ticket
Gen. Dick may be under such obli-
cations to the Probate Judge that he
may have to accept tho invitation,
but with the majority OF the citizens
Of Akron the example he viii set in
undertaking TO whitewash the proxy
system will prove to be more anus.
Ing than persuasive.
Not the magic presence of the peerless
General can make the citizens of Akron
forget the franchise grabs, the East
Market street contract awards, the
political fayorltism, the extravaganza,
and the irresponsible government
which In their three years of power
the present City Commissioners and
their arrogant boss have forced upon
the people.

Newell Dwight Hills, now pastor of

Desiring to interest as many young

felt that something should be added

services to draw them there. He de-
cided that it would be good thing
to meet the young men in the parlors

Fuffalo, Oct. 8, 190l.-An evening paper
publishes sym osiIm of physicians
opinions regarding the efficacy Of various
remedi for the cure Of nervous prostra-
ton and attendant ills. Each physician
was asked to express his opinion,
first.I whether those diseases were cur
able when they once had gained hold
upon the patient, and, secondly, whether
the same remedy would b.. beneficial in
all cases.
Without exception. the PHI sicians in

was most remarkable, because, with two

We were glad to learn upon our
return from the Editorial Excursion
that the Farmers Institute at War
rem was complete success. Supt.
Hoverstad, whom we met at Crooks
ton, expressed himself as we'll pleased
with the large attendance and great
interest shown in the meeting by the
farmers as we'll as by the citizens OF
Warren. 1t is very proper that the
jewellers in the town and the country
work hand in hand in a matter of
this kind, as anything that will edu-
cate, elevate and help the farmers
will also be beneficial to the towns
people. Many new ideas and sugges-
tions were scattered about like seeds
which will in time springup and bear
fruit in improved methods offarming.
Agriculture is getting to be more and
more OF science, and in recent years
there has been a great deal inquiry
and investigat ton to learn how farm
ing may be made more productive.
The matter OF mixed farming has re-
ceived great deal OF attention, and
now when we see the price OF wheat
fall in proportion to the rainfall,
happy indeed is the far er who has
other farm products than wheat to
dispose OF during the year. And even
though the wheat crop should wither
in youth or he struck at maturity by
the relentless Maidstone, the farmer
who has learned to diversity can turn
to his pig stile, his sheep pen and
stock yard for solace and gain. The
American farmer is the most impor-
tant factor in our civilization to-day.
He more than any other class swaps
the destlnies ofthe republic. He lives
close to natures heart, from which
he draws inspiration for a true and
noble life. To the tiller OF the soil
this country owes much of it's great
ness and it's wealth. The United
States can produce enough foodstuffs
to supply the world, and statesmen
say that the nation that feeds the
world rules the world. Farmers In.
stitutes are held in order that the
greatness, prosperity and happiness
OF this nation may be still further
augmented.

Question Answered,

Yes, August Flower still has the
largest sale OF any medicine in the
civilized world. Your mothers and
grandmothers' never thought of u.s.
ing anything else for Indigestion or
'BiIiousness. Doctors we're scarce,
and they seldom heard Of Appendix
citis, Nervous Prostitution or Heart
failure, etc. They used August Flow
err to clean out the system apd stop
fermentation OF undigested food, reg
ulate the action of the liver, stimu-
late the nervous and organic action
of the system, and that is all they
took when feeling dull and bad with
headache and other aches. You on
ly need a few doses of Green's August
Flower, in liquid form, to make you
satisfied THERE'S nothing serious the
matter with you. Get Green's Prize
