he Last Call

This is the last issuc of The
Dawn before the great battle Of
ballots that will take place next
Tuesday, We have tried to be
fair and Just to all, and if we have
wounded the feelings of any one
we are indeed sorry. We have
been firm, loyal and true, or at
least tried to be so. our opponents
have received from us the kind of
treatment we would wish to have
bestowed upon us. no back-bit
ing, mud Singing or anything inn
polite or ungcntlemanly has been
said against any on the republic
can ticket. The republican ticket
is composed Of men who were the
choice of the party and their choice
stands, but we believe the demo
cratic ticket will bear the closest
scrutiny of the kccncst vision and
come out without blcnish or a
note of discord and we further be-
lievc that it is a ticket that YOU can
support without blush or fear,
and one too that if it wins, will
prove an honor TO the country and
a credit to itself.
Study the candidates personally,
look into their private and public
lives, their standing in the com
munity, their honor and integrity,
and if you feel that you can do so,
we shall be glad to have your votes
next Tuesday and assure you that
your confidence in them will not
be betrayed.

IL 1904 Roosevelt received 49,
900 votes more than Parker i'll this
STATE. while Mead received II, 500
more than Turner. At that time
there was a large democratic stay
at-home vote of those who refused
to vote for Parker because of his
refusal to support Bryan in 1896,
while many other democrats voted
for Roosevelt in preference to Park
or. This year the stay-at-home
vote will be out and practically
every man that voted for Bryan
before will do so again. The great
majority of labor vote will support
the democratic platform because Of
the labor planks i'll it. They, as
we'll as the farmer want tariff rcvi-
sion and bank guarantee, which
latter is a state as we'll as a national
issue, and fof this reason will
strongly support Bryan and Patti
son. An estimated republican
plurality of 80, 900 is nowhere when
these different influences and CON
ditions are taken into consideration.
THE question of United States
senator is eliminated from the issue
in this campaign, therefore you
can afford, however partisan you
NAV be to vote, cast aside party
and vote for men who are in favor
of and will work to secure the kind
of legislation that you want The
bank guarantee law, economical
state and county administration,
better conditions morally, socially
and financially. With a full
knowledge of all you can and ought
to support r. A. Turner for the
legislature.

The Evolution Of
Household Remedies.

The modern patent medicine bust.
mess Is the natural outgrowth Of the
old-time household remedies.
In the early history Of this country,
EVERY FAMILY HAD ITS HOME
MADE MEDICINES. Herb teas,
bitters, laxatives and tonics, were 10 be
found in almost every house, compound.
ed by tho housewife, sometimes assisted
by the apotheoary or the family doctor.
Bueh remedies as picra, which was
aloes and quassia, dissolved In apple
brandy. Sometimes a hop tonic, made
Of whiskey, hops and bitter barh. A
score or moro Of popular, homemade
remedies were thus compounded, the
formulate for which were passed along
from house 10 house, sometimes written,
sometimes verbally communicated.
Tho patent medicine business Is a
natural outgrowth from this whole
some, old-time custom. In the begin
ming, some enterprising doctor, i'm
pressed by the usefulness Of one Of
these homemade remedies, would take
II up, improve II in many ways, manu-
faoture II on a large scale, advertise II
mainly through almanacs for the home,
and thus II would become used over a
large area. LATTERLY THE HOUSE
HOLD REMEDY BUSINESS TOOK
A MORE EXACT AND SCIENTIFIC
FORM
Peruna was originally one Of these
Jld.time remedies. II was used by the
Mennonites, Of Pennsylvania, before il
was offered 10 the public for sale. DR..
Hartman, THE ORIGINAL COM
FOUNDER OF PERUNA, ia OF Men
MONTE origin. First, he prescribed It
for his neighbors and his patients.
The sale Of II increased, and at last no
established a mandatory and fur
niShed II 10 the general drug trade.
Peruna Is useful in a great many
climatic ailments, such as coughs, colds,
sore throat, bronchitis, and catarrhal
diseases generally. THOUSANDS OF
FAMILIES HAVE LEARNED THE
USE or PERUNA and its value In tho
treatment OF these ailments. They
have learned 10 trust and believe in
DR.. Hartman's Judgment, and TO rely
on his remedy, Poruna.
