Speaking of the campaign it may
not be amiss to say that all New
York, Democrats, Independents, Re-
publieans and foreigners alike, have
contracted a genuine case of admira-
ton for National Chairman George
B. Cortelyou. He has been criticized
in some quarters, of course-all strong
men are-'but no one has estimated
that he had lost his way IN New York
or that there was much danger of his
losing it anywhere.
Most interesting thing about Cor
telyou," said a veteran newspaper man
this morning, sis the nice, quiet, polite
way he let's you down when you've
talked to him as long as he's willing
to let you. He beats some of the old
heads hollow at that sort of thing.

1900, that 1 ever saw. Used to meet
him at Canton most every day that
year. Had a regular formula then.
Whenever he was ready for you TO go
he would look placidly out over the
lawn and say, in a sort of confidential
tone:
Did you ever notice how extreme
ly tame the birds are on this lawn %
Whenever Cortelyou got to talking
about the tame birds, four years ago,
it was high time to be saying good
bye. He doesn't talk about birds

WHAT SULPHUR DOES
For the Human Body in Health and
Disease

The mention Of sulphur will recall
to many of us the early days when
our mothers and grandmothers gave
us our daily dose of sulphur and mo-
lssses every spring and fail.
1t was the universal spring and fan
blood purifier" tonic and cure-all
and mind YOU, this old-fashioned
remedy was not without merit.
The idea was good. but the remedy
was crude and unpalatable, and a
large quantity had to be taken to get
any effect.
Nowadays we get all the beneficial
effects of sulphur in a palatable. con-
centrated form, so that a single grain
is far more effective than a tablespoon
full of the crude sulphur.
In recent years, research and expert
ment have proven that the best sui
phur for medicinal use is that obtain
ed from Calcium Calcium Sulphide)
and sold in drug stores under the
name of Stuart's Calcium Waters
They are small chocolate coated pellets
and contain the active medicinal prin-
siple of sulphur in a highly concen-
trated, effective form.
Few people are aware of the value
of this form of sulphur in restoring
and maintaining bodily vigor and
health: sulphur acts directly on the
liver, and eXcretOry organs and puri-
fies and enriches the blood by the
prompt elimination of waste material.
Our grandmothers knew this when
they dosed US with sulphur and mo-
lasses every spring and fall, but the
crudity and impurity of ordinary flow
ers of sulphur were often worse than
the disease. and cannot compare with
the modern concentrated preparations
of sulphur, of which Stuart's Cal
cium Waters is undoubtedly the best
and most widely used.
They are the natural antidote for
liver and kidney troubles and cure con-
stipation and purify the blood in a
way that often surprises patient and
physician alike.
DR. r. NJ. Wilkins while experiment
ing with sulphur remedies soon found
that the sulphur from Calcium was
superior to any other form He says
For liver, kidney and blood troubles.

One day he and his partner, whose

of the facts in the present instance.

declares, is wonderful. He corroborates
