Of Interest to Thin. Weak People

It is perfectly understood by every sick man or woman that if they can get some remedy that will stop the gradual loss of flesh and strength their recovery is assured. People that are nervous and un- steady, with dizzy spells. weakened memory, and lose of ambition, their blood is thin and watery. It shows in their sallow complexion and tired manner; soon as they com mence to gain flesh they look bet ter and sleep better. To gain from 1 to 3 lbs. of good solid flesh per week, the blood must be made rich and pure. pr. Gunn's Blood and Nerve Tonic puts in the body the very pith of what makes pure rich blood in the most direct way, and cures disease by making strength. This tonic is in tablet form, to be taken right after meals. Sold by all druggists for 75c per box, or 8 boxes for $2. For women's weak ness a better remedy was never made. For sale at the c. A.

that this addition to the crowd was
likely to overtax my powers to finance
the proposition. Two may be able to
live as cheap as one after they are
married, but they can't do it before,
and the contrariest man on earth will
agree that you can't get three people
IN circus on two tickets.
"Well, l stood pat, and when we got
in the circus, l had just fifteen cents.

use when the show was over, and l
marched those girls up to the top row
of seats so that we would escape the
lemonade fiend and I could keep my
three nickels. But it was no go-he
spotted us and five minutes after we
were seated we traded our car fare for
three glasses Of red water.

There was soon a sequel to the

the words of one of the delegates the
action was taken because of the impu-

purchaseable delegates of Iowa
At this point rush was made for
Wright by some of his colleagues in
the delegation and it became evident
that trouble was on. Wright sprang
forward on the chairs to get out of
reach of his antagonists. An Arkan-
sas delegate across the aisle reached
out his hand and motioned him on. The
convention was in an uproar.
One of the Hearst Iowa delegates
rushed forward to the platform. He was
also followed by Wright Between the
two men there was a whispered confer
ence with Chairman Bailey and Wright
secured recognition. He Numbered
