Life.

The poets exclamation 80 Life
feel thee bounding in my veins" is a
Joyous one. Persons TINT can rarely
or never make it, in honesty to them
selves, are among the most unfortu-
nate. They do not Hoe, but eriSt for
to lice implies more than to be. To
live is to be well and strong to arise
feeling equal to the ordinary duties of
the day, and to retire not overcome by
them - to feel life bounding in the
veins. A medicine that has made
thousands of people, men and women,
we'll and strong, has accomplished a
great work, bestowing the richest
blessings, and that medicine is Hoods
Sarsaparilla. Tho weak, rundown,
or debilitated, from any cause, should
not fail to take it. 1t builds up the
whole system, changes existence into
life, and makes life more Astounding.
We are glad to say these words in its
favor to the readers of our columns.

has this explanation to make of why
the Republicans did not make n nomi-
nation in this congressional district
to run against Flanagan. II may be
true to some extent, but that congress
man Fowler was Interested is hardly
likely. II he twas present" at the
Republican convention, he did not
show himself publicly, and We have
not heard any mention Of it other
than it the article below:
Here and there Republican editor
is found applauding the action of his
party in this district in failing to nom
mate n candidate for Congress to be
voted for on June 18th. They call it
good politics" and try to Impress
that nonsense upon the public mind
All tho politics there is in it was the
''hog" kind. Fowler, Of Union, seeks
denomination for the Fall election in
the new district of Union, Warren and
Morris, and he, fearing the popularity
that might be shown by candidate
pitted against Mr.. Flanagan, was pres
ent to oppose any nomination ut all.
Filled with the same "patriotic" mo
tiyes, influential Republican leaders
from Mercer and Somerset were at tho
convention to oppose any nomination,
fearing that the candidate might be
chosen from Hunterdon, and so prove
formidable candidate in this new
district next Fall This is the good
politics" of which we hear 80 much.
Rather, it was an exhibition of selfish
ness which stands entirely without
precedent in this State.
