Not Prevent Fits.
DIR. Miles Nervine Cured
Ny Wife.

DR.. Miles Nervinc has been successfully
tried in thousands OF cases Of nervous disor-
ders, but never,has il made better record than
when used in the treatment Of fits or spasms
Thousands Of testimonials prove this, and in
nearly every instance the writer has stated
that the fits ceased after the first dose Of Ner-
vine was given. The statement is repeated
in the following:
Seven years ago my wife commenced
having spasms or fits and l called in my
home physician and he said she was para
iyzed. He rubbed her with salt water and
gave her calomei and she eventually got
some better, but in short time she had
another attack. She was confined to her
bed for three months and the doctor could
not help her. She had fits frequently, some
times very severe. Her hands would cramp
so we could not open them and she finally
got 50 her jaws would become locked
Finally / saw the doctor was doing her no
good and ordered bottle of DIR. Miles Re-
storativc Ncryine. She received so much
benefit from the first bottle that got some
more. She has taken number OF bottles
but has never had fit since taking the first
dose. She also thinks very highly of Dr.
Miles Nerve and Liver Pills and is never
without them. II there Is any way Of max
ing this testimonial stronger do so because
of the good the DR.. Miles Restorative Nerv-
inc did my wife-"-WM- Y. ALLEN, p u,

Democratic Platform.

Democratic Platform.
Adopted at me Congregational Convention He'd
at Keyser, May 3, 1905.
The Democrats of the Second Congress
sional District. in convention assembled. do
reaffirm the principles Of the Democratic
party, as laid down by the party and ennn-
ciated BY its various party platforms.
We recognize and regret the growing ten
depcy of Corporate Control Of our Govern
mental affairs, both State and National. and
the ubiquitous system by which the earnings
OF the people are appropriated. by aid Of
class legislation, to the use Of the favored
few, and we pledge the candidate of this
convention, when elected to the Congress
Of the United States. TO stand for the inter-
est Of the whole people in the contest now
coming on between the public interest on
one hand and corporate greed ON the other.
We recognize the disposition on the part
Of the kings of finance TO organize trusts for
the purpose Of increasing and controlling
the price Of the necessaries Of life. and we
therefore pledge the candidate Of this con-
yention, when elected. to urge the adoption
of such laws as will place upon the free list
all articles 50 controlled by trusts as toarbit-
rariy increase the price thereof to the con-
sumner
We believe and assert, most emphatically,
that taxation for state purposes should BE-
levied and collected upon all persons and
corporations according 10 the amount aud
va ne of property owned by such persons or
corporations
That we regard the constantly broadening
corporation laws of this State, the giving to
corporations chartered here more powers
and privileges over the people, for the sake
Of competing with other States in an effort
TO secure charter taxes from them. as a
menace TO ourrights and liberties and dan
gerous tendency in our legislative enact
ments.
We denounce those fake tax reformefs.
persons in this State who for personal and
political purposes have enacted and now are
carrying into effect new and radical tax laws
under the pretence of seeking to give the
people relief from taxation
That we believe the only practical way 10
reduce taxation is to reduce public expendi-
lures, and call attention to the recklessIy
extrayagant expenditures of the past Repub-
lican Legislature. In every branch Of state
government and all other state institutions
We urge economy and consequent reduction
of taxes instead OF the devising of new
schemes for raising public revenue.
