and the attack comes swift and sudden.
The mistake which commonly opens the
way for an attack by disease is neglect
of the symptoms of stomach trouble.
When eating is followed by undue full
ness, belchings, sour or bitter risings,
etc, disease is attacking the stomach.
The best way to Illustrate such an at
tack is to use DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery. 1t cures diseases of the
stomach and other organs of digestion
and nutrition, and makes the body
sr.ong and healthy.

leaders here.
Senator Fairbanks will leave Boston to-nlor-
row morning for White River Junction. VT,
near the New-Hampshire border line. where he
will begin his Vermont speeches on Monday.

and Meyer that the only proper thing to do was
for the State convention 10 nominate straight

tention to the Republican State ticket.
That. In fact. was the purpose OF his visit--to
brace up certain men who had begun TO waoole on

Nothing that has happened in the last two weeks

have Shepard than Grout or Stanchhela. With
Stanchield as Governor. Murphy knows that Hil
