Don't Forget Manner.

In discussing the republican nomi-
nee for clerk of the supreme court
one of the Judges of that high tribu-
nal said: His election would be a
monstrous outrage upon the state,
the bar and our court"
Ana a fellow-justice of the same
bench said: The feeling against
Manner is unanimous among all my
colleagues
Five justices of the state supreme
court unite in an indignant protest
against the action of the republican
state convention in nominating so I'M
worthy man for clerk of that court.
\ sixth declared that for personal
reasons he did not care To express
himself. The seventh. completing the
bench. was ill at home and so could
not be interviewed by the Chicago

ret il is well to bear i'm mind the
fact that one of the justices of the SUI

bench feeling against Chris Manner,
the republican nominee for clerk. is
unanimous.

Twenty Millions for Theatres.

1t is estimated that the American
people paid S2O,OOO,OOO for its theatri-
cal entertainment last season, and
while it may be possible to estimate
the amount spent in this way it is
impossible to estimate the amount
spent annually by those in search of
health. Ocean voyages, change of
climate and many other things are
suggested. but even these often fail.
The stomach is the foundation of
good health. If yours is weak or dis
ordered and you suffer from indiges-
ton, dyspepsia, constipation, bilious
ness, nervousness or insomnia, you
need Hostetter's Bitters at once. 1t
is the best medicine in the world for
restoring the stomach to its normal
condition. Good health is then sure
to follow. Try it and be convinced.
Avoid substitutes and limitations.

A Chicago man has observed that.
Good deeds are better than real estate
deeds-some of the latter are worth
less. Act kindly and gently, show
sympathy and lend a helping hand.
You cannot possibly lose by it," Most
men appreciate a kind word and en-
enlargement more than SUBSTANTIAL
help. There are persons in this COM
munity who will truthfully say: "My
good friend, cheer up. A few doses

are in prime condition, owing to eX-

to be the largest bison on the CONT
