counties east can sell their lands at $40 to
$50 per acre and buy here at $40 and less
per acre. The land here in few years
will double in value, while the land in
the counties east of this are worth as

Most of our land buyers are coming
from central Kansas and they have good
reasons for coming. Those who come
now can find bargains in lands, but al

are being bought by Ford county people;
many are doubling the size Of their hold

A BOSTON WONDER
J. P. MAGANN CURED OF PARALYSIS
AFTER TWO STROKES.
The Widely Known Boston Manufactures
Regains Perfect Health and Praises
DR.. Williams Pink Pills.

The Widely Known Boston Manufacturer
Regains Perfect Health and Praises
DR.. Williams Pink Pills.
John P. Magann, of j. Magann & Co.,
manufacturers of billiard and pool ia
bles, No. 6 Chelsea street, Charlestown
district, Boston, Mass, suffered heavy
stroke of paralysis two years ago. The
first stroke was followed by second one
Of still greater severity and it required
his utmost effort barely to drag himself
himself particularly he was attacked by
the. most intense pains in the upper part
of his chest, and agony was added co
weakness.
The usual career of such sufferers is
pitiable one. The strong man grows
steadily weaker, and finally lives only to
draw his breath and realize his utter
helplessness and misery. Here, how
ever, the case of Mr.. Magann differs.
He did not succumb but conquered the
dreadful disease. How he did this, is
told by himself as follows:
81 had heard DIR. Williams Pink Pills
highly recommended for the cure Of
| blood and nerve diseases, and I decided
to give them trial. After had taken
three boxes of the pills thought de-
tected signs of life in the paralyzed parts
of my body and knew that could get
about the room with greater ease.
ct kept on using the pills until had
taken six boxes and then was able to
walk outdoors with the aid of a cane.
1 still kept on taking the pills and after
I had taken eight boxes I was COM
pletely cured. I have had no return of
the disease since and am today in as
good health as I ever was in my life.
1t is truly wonderful what curative
merit these little pink pills possess, and
I would honestly recommend them to
any person who has partial paralysis
such as mine. have often heard others
praise them, and now gladly add my
Acknowledgements of the great good which
they have done me-"
The great reputation of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills for Pale People is based on
the fact that they have wrought many
similar wonders in the cure of nervous
diseases, such as neuralgia, nervous
prostration, sciatica, St. Vitus' dance,
partial paralysis and locomotor ataxia.
They are sold by all druggists through
out the world.

WHERE TARIFF is A TAX.
En Free Trade Great Britain 1t Is In
deed q Burden.

kn Free Trade Great Britain 1t Is In
deed q Burden.
The British tariff system differs from
the American tariff system in one i'm
portant particular. In Great Britain
they impose duties "for revenue only"
On articles not produced at home. In
the United. States we derive the greater
part Of our customs revenue from du-
ties on articles the like Of which are
the products Of domestic industries.
The American system Is called protec
ton. The British system is called free
trade.
This difference Is brought into prom
inence by the new British budget, with
its increase Of twopence in the tax on
tea, bringing the total tax up to eight
pence, or about 16 cents per pound.
We take from the Boston Herald some
the effect upon consumers Of this in
creased tax. Their annual consump-
ton Of tea per capita is over six
pounds, while the American per capita
consumption is less than one pound.
Last year the British imports of tea
amounted to the enormous total of
301, 618,4 pounds, of which it is est-
mated that 255, 100000 pounds were
consumed by the British people.
One significant fact of the situation
described is that the English people
cannot escape the tax by raising their
own tea. They must import their IA
vorite beverage or get along without
it. In the United States, on the other
hand, tariffs are levied upon articles
which can be produced In our own
country, with the result that they are
produced so abundantly that the price
is actually lowered in consequence of
the duties placed upon them. Theo-
retically, the tariff is a tax; practical
", it is a tax reducer. More than that,
Industrial opportunities are credited
for the benefit Of wage earners and
to the immense enlargement Of nation
al and Individual wealth.
Whatever may be the comparative
merits Of the two systems in England
it is certainly well for the United
States to refrain from taxing non
competitive articles like tea and to
charge other countries for the priv1-
lege of bringing their competitive ar
ticles into our markets. This Is the
Republican policy. It is not the Dem
ocratic policy.

THE LOW PRICE ERA.
An Example Was Furnished During
CIeveIand's Last Term.

An Example Was Furnished During
CIeveIand's Last Term.
We have only to go back to the last
administration Of President Cleveland
for an example Of the truth Of Secre-
tary Shaw's proposition. The tariff
smashing bill knocked business sky
ward Mills closed. Only portion Of
the people found employment. Prices
went down. Of course they did, for
who was there to purchase?
Does not every one remember the
free soup houses for the starving null
titudes who could not get employment?
What was the use of a butcher shop
advertising meats at reduced price
when the laborer without work did
not have the price? It was tantalizing
for him to be told that he could pur-
chase a loaf of bread for a cent or
two less than in good times, for In good
i, times he would have had cents in
his pocket to pay for loaf, but now
if bread was selling for penny he
could not procure 1t.
That is what Secretary Shaw wished
the workingmen Of Wilmington to IN
derstand If they are all at work at a
fair wage they have the price of bread
and meat in their pockets, and II the
price is higher than in troublous times
they should remember that it is the
farmer who is prospecting with them,
and the farm and the mill are neces-
sary to each other If there Is to be
general prosperity. -Philadelphia In

Stomach Dosing Will Not Cure.
Only Way to Cure Catarrh is by Breatl
ing Hy0mei.

Ask any physician if catarrh is blood
disease and he will tell you that it is a
diseased condition of the mucuous men,
brane and that it cannot be cured by
blood purifiers, pills, tablets, or other
forms of stomach dosing. The only
sensible and scientific way of curing ca
tarrh is by the use Of Hyomei.
Breathed for a few minutes, four or
FIVE times day, through hard rubber
inhaler that is SO small that it can be
carried in the vest pocket, Hyomei will
absolutely destroy all catarrhal germs
and cure the disease. Catarrh can never
exist where Hyomei is used. 1t has
two-fold action, destroying the disease
germs in the air passages and lungs, and
soothing and healing the infamed mu-
cous membrane.
w. B. Eastman, one of the most re-
liable firms in St. Johnsbury, is giving
his personal guarantee with every pack
age of Hvomei he sells, that it will effect
cure or he will return the money. He
has had scores of reports of remarkable
cures of both acute and chronic cases of
catarrh by Hyomei.
The complete Hyomei outfit costs
$1.00 and comprises an inhaler, bottle
OF Hyomei and a dropper. The inhaler
will last a lifetime; and additional
bottles of Hyomei can be obtained for
SOC.
