High Pressure DAYS

Men an women have to work necessarily
with brain and hand to hold their own
nowadays. Never were the demands of
business, the wants Of the family, the re-
quirements of society, more numerous. The
first effect Of the praiseworihy effort 10 keep
uP with all these things is commonly seer IN
weakened or debliialed condition Of the
nervous system. winch results In dyspepsia
defective nutrition Of both body and brain,
and in extreme cases in complete seryous
prosiraiion. II is clearly seen that what is
needed is what will sustain tho system, give
vigor and tone to the nerves, and keep the
digestive and assimilatiye functions healthy
aud active. From personal knowledge, we
can recommend Hoods sarsapanlls for this
purpose. II acts on Oh the vital organs,
builds ap the whole sylem. and fits men and
women for these high pressure days.

Mr.. WatIeTson has made some brilliant
addresses to the Democrats begging them
to let bygones be bycones and unite for the
coming struggle. Mr.. Watterson believes
that "anti-imperialism" should be the
battle cry but he uses the term in It's
broadest sense. The fact that this Con.
gress has failed to do anything to curlail
the power OF the trusts. even along the
lines recommended in the Presidents
message and that the most nagrant abuses
OF the tariff Will remain uncorrected at the
end Of the session are regarded as certain
TO insure repudiation on the part OF the
people. Some OF the best campaign ma.
terial has come from the Republicans
themselves particularly as the result Of the
