Taken with Cramps.

VIM. Krmse, member of the bridge
gang working near Littleport was
taken suddenly i'll Thursday night with
cramps and kind of cholera. His
case was so severe that he had to have
the members of the crew wait upon
him and Mr. Clifford was called and
consulted. He told them he had a
medicine in the form of Chamberlain
Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy
that he thought would help him out
and accordingly several doses were
administered with the result that the
fellow was able to be around next day.
The incident speaks quite highly of Mr..
Gitford's medicines. --Elkader, Iowa,

A DUTY TO SEE THE FAIR.

Governor r NJ La Toilette of Wis
consin, W. l.. Houser, Secretary OF
State and party of other distinguished
Wisconsin people recently visited the
Worlds Fair Gov La Toilette said:
81 am delighted with the Fair. |
think it is not only duty but privilege
for all the people to attend this wonder
full Exposition. | am glad to see that
the Wisconsin people are attending in
such large numbers and am sure that
they will continue to do so. This Ex-
position is too grand and too instructive
to be missed by any one. 1t certainly
surpasses anything similar which has
ever been attempted before.
II cannot speak of the Fair in terms
too glowing and would regret greatly
if the people from all parts of this
country would fail to see il. The cost
of seeing the Fair, contrary to some
reports which have been spread, is so
small that no one can give expense as
an excuse for not attending 1t seems
that Accommodations can be had in
homes of private families, in the beauti-
full residence districts for which St.
Louis is SO famous, at remarkably little
expense. | must state that st. Louis is
well prepared for her visitors, even go
ing SO far as to provide Wisconsin
weather for her northern guests"
Secretary of State Houser of Mondovi,
Wis, was equally appreciative of the
greatness of the Exposition. He said
This Exposition is certainly the
greatest | have ever seen. 1t is credit
TO the nation and to all those who had
anything to do with bringing it about.
am particularly pleased with the
beautiful, homelike building of the state
of Wisconsin"
Hon. w ID Hoard, former governor
of Wisconsin and now president of the
states Worlds Fair commission, has
spent many weeks at the Exposition
He says
81 believe this exposition to be the
grandest and finest thing ever conceived
by the people of this country. 1t is SC
great, beautiful, grand and imposing
that 1t surely never can receive due APP
probation from any man, however long
he remains here. 1t can never BE-
equaled during the next hundred years
For this very reason no person, what
ever may be his circumstances, shoulC
not fail to see the fair. There is Nc
reason why every one should not see it
Every one will grant that there i,
nothing more worthy of being seen
and since railroads are giving reduced
rates, and since expenses in St Loui:
are very low, lower than most people
who have not been to St. Louis realize
there can be no reason for staying
away.
The greatest feature of the fair il
the depth and height of the conception
What the management of the exposition
has done is to me one of the creates
triumphs of modern civilization.
I'm regard to ST. Louis, | am mor'
than pleased with the city. Fores
Park, which consider to be one of tn,
greatest parks in theworld, is beautiful
1t is to me one of St. Louis's creates
attractions. One thing about st. Louis
which the people should know is thu
remarkably low temperature which th,
city has had ever since the Exposition
started The city is almost summer
resort and no one should be deterres
from attending the Fair on account o
the false reports of the heat at st
Louis"

There was nothing against him, but
he had Joined their club on the

with much experience in camp life,
they found him an acquisition TO the
