health of a woman often, which grad

the light from her eyes, the rose from

has frightened the woman from the
timely help needed at the beginning
has been the dreaded questions, the
obnoxious examination. the local
treatments, OF the home physician.
There is no need for these. Nor is
there need for continued suffering.

SIR. Sixon's Keynote.

The determination OF the delegates to
the republican convention II the har.
mony hat marked their proceedings in
dictate very ST strongly thai Il determined
fight will be made all along the line. 1t,
therefore, behooves the democratic can
didates to be up and stirring il they
want to win.
The hardest fight will doubtless be
male on the Legislative ticket III the
hope uf winning the fnur votes from this
codnty for George =. Nixon for United
States senator. The op ,oSing candi.
dates for the assembly are AL good citi.
zane. Each has the respect and conf
dence Of his neighbors, but this will tot
count for much against the political
principles involved III the contest.
Those who favor the election Of Mr..
Nixon rs United States senator will vote
for the republican assemblymen, be
cause they represent the political princi'
piles he stands fer. On the contrary
those who favor the election Of Governor
Sparks To the United States will vOtG
for the democratic assembly men be
cause they represent democratic princi
plc:. Consequently the personality Of
the candidates will cut but little iigur,
i'll the campaign.
II Mr.. NiIon's speech to the conven
ton ,csterday is tn be taken as the key
note Of his campaign for the senate, the
friends Of Governor Sparks should bt
ceasIng in their vigilance. When
candidate for the United States senate
will unblushinGly declare that those
familiar with his record know that ht
never leaves IL stona unturned to accom-
plish his purpose it indicator clearly
that he will stop at nothing to gain hi
ends. Democrats, be on Your guaIc
during this campaign.

There can be no other issues save the

IL these are not the issues, he says, there
