Judging by the principles of historic dem

token, the populists of today are the true po-
htical representatives of Jefferson and Jackson

son, and the principles announced during the

us of the irresistible strength that cooperation

pose Of lending it to the banks; between the

In 1896, and the place-hunting politician who
patched together that vote-seeking document at
Denver, there is the tremendous psychological
change which marks the absorption of the
youthful, ardent crusader by the cold, calcu-
lating, INSCRIPTIONS place-hunter. Bryan the
champion Of the people, is no more. The
Bryan of today is simply tireless, accom-

The Stomach Does

which is composed of muscles of great

from the waste matter. If, however, these
gastric juices are lacking, the stomach is
not capable of digesting its food because
1t has not the tools with which to work
successfully.
The gastric juices when in a perfect
state do away with all foul odors, fermen-
tatlon and decay, reduce the food to a dis

If, instead of nourishment, the intes-
unes receive impure deposits combined
with poisonous and imperfect gastric
juice, IT can be readily seen that they must
turn such imperfect nourishment into the
blood. The blood then being unable to
give each part of the body that which II
requires, becomes IMPOVERISHED and dis
ease is spread broadcast.

their work just the same. They build up

Treadwell, charged with felony en-

connection with the wrecking of the

evening at 5 o'clock. He arrived at

endeavor all yesterday to secure the
required amount of bail, $4,000, it
was decided to abandon the attempt

same institution, Bartnett and Brown,
and likewise San Francisco's ex-
