Old Age.

Old age as it comes in the orderly pro-
cess of Nature is beautiful and ma
iestic thing. The very shadow of eclipse
which threatens it, makes it the more
priced. 1t stands for experience, know,
ledge, wisdom and counsel. That is old
age as it should be- But old age as 1T
so often is means nothing but second
childhood of mind and body. What
makes the difference2 Very largely the
care of the stomach. In youth and the
full strength of manhood it doesn't
seem to matter how we treat the stom-
ach. We abuse it, overwork it, inJure
it. We don't suffer from it much.
But when age comes the stomach is
worn out. 1t can't prepare and distribute
the needed nourishment to the body
and the body unnourished, falls into
senile decay. DR.. Pierces Golden Med
ical Discovery is a wonderful medicine
for old people whose stomachs ar!
"weak" and whose digestions are poor.
It's invigorating effects are felt by mint
as well as body 1t takes the sting
from old age, and makes old peopi
| strong.

JOHN BOUTWELL, FOR SHERIFF
The Safe and Logical Candidate For
Shiawassee County.

From Perry Journal.
The people of Perry and surrounding
resident voters of Shiawassee county
are well pleased with the encouraging
reports heard on every side for the NOM
nation of our candidate for sheriff.
There will be no second choice as the
republicans will stand for John Bout
we'll first, last and all the time. Any
talk that we are considering, any trade,
exchange or substitute is only for politi'
cal purposes and told by someone who
purposely misrepresented the facts.
We are assured that Mr.. Boutwells
nomination is growing safer every day
as he is both the qualified and logica
candidate for this important Office.
Should John Boutwell, be elected, TIT
county of Shiawassee would secure on
of the best sheriffs and guardian OF tn
peoples welfare, that has ever beel
their fortune to have.

The lack of knowledge throughout
the country of what is euphemistically
called ''high finance" and the methods
pursued by its leaders in stock manipu-
lation, is the chief source OF misery 10
those who hazard their hard-earned
money in speculation. For this reason
Mr.. Henry Clews' article on wall
Streets Wild Speculation: 190O-l9o4'

highly educational character, and the

real service in explaining in so simple

Bryan's Opinion Of Parker.

(From Bryan's prepared statement at Lincoln,
Nebr., July ~ 1904
II have nothing to take back. have
nothing to withdraw of the things that
have said against the methods pursued
to advance his (Parkers) candidacy. 1t
was plain and deliberate attempt to
deceive the party. The New York plat
form was vague and meaningless, and
purposely so, because the advocates OF
Judge Parker were trying to secure
votes from among the people who
would have opposed his views had they
known them. If he had sent to the
Albany convention the telegram that he
sent to the st. Louis convention he
would have had very few instructed
delegates from the south, and no pos
sible chance for the nomination. But
he and his managers adroitly and pur-
posely concealed his position until the
delegates had been corralled and the
nomination assured. Then his friends
attempted to secure gold plank, which
was overwhelmingly defeated in the
committee. After the party had re-
ioiced over the harmony secured by the
omission of the question, and after ne
had secured the nomination, he injected
his views upon the subject at time
when he could not be taken from TIT
ticket without great Generalization
The nomination was secured, therefore
by crooked and indefensible methods.
(From Bryan's speech at the st. LOU
Convention, after receipt OF Parker
dispatch.j
II think it is manly thing for
man to express his opinion before tn
convention adjourns. 1t would hav
been manlier to have expressed 1T be
fore the convention met. 1t is mani
thing to express his opinion before tn
delegates act finally upon his position
bat it would have been manlier thin
had he expressed his opinion before tn
voters throughout this country went
5 their caucuses and their primaries an
sent instructed delegates here"
