NEWS OF THE COUNTY SEAT

home of Miss Hannah Black on Court
street this evening
Most of the county candidates are
working the north county districts at
present. It is said that some of the
democrats are building few fences
around themselves that 1t will be
mighty hard to get out of and that
the 3rd of November will not end all
of the controversies.
Plans are being made by the repub-
licans to get the returns of the cleo
ton on the evening of Nov. 3rd at Cen
trail Music hall, and jollification is be-
ing arranged in spite of Abbotts' and
Wellman's predictions.
One Crown Pointer is going to vote
for Bryan because he wants change"
which is about the only reason he is
able to give. 1t has been suggested
that he make change some other way
without imperiling the country's bust
ness interests. The party in question
failed to state whether he wanted a
change for better or worse, but from
the strength of his argument it is pre-
| sumably the latter.
A good story is being circulated
about a certain Center township demo
crat who went to the Capitol of one OF
the western states, and in viewing the
beautiful structure, heard a mighty
sigh and started an awful TRADE upon
| robbery, graft and how he was be-
ing taxed so heavily to pay for the
building. His companion knowing the
state of affairs quickly had the official
| figure out just how much of the C. t
DIS money went into the building, and
| 1t figured exactly SO cents Reaching
| into his pocket his companion drew
out 40 cents and told the c. T. D. tc
| stop his growing as there was the full
amount with 1 cent interest

STOP DRINKING
0rrine Destroys the Craving for
Drink-Cure Effected or
Money Refunded.

1t was formerly customary for the
habitual drinker to take the pledge
regularly, sometimes once a year, and
sometimes in every fit of remorse that
followed his debauches, and then
break it.
But now it is gradually dswning on
the world that pledges do no stop
drunkenness. When a man takes a
pledge voluntarily. he expects to keep
1t. Every man expects to keep his
word and every broken pledge costs
the drunkard many a heartache. But
he cannot help it. He fights as long as
he can, then succumbs to the craving.
The nervous system of the habitual
drinker is diseased and he must have
treatment that will cure this condition.
Orrine is sold under a positive CUR

ment for the liquor habit is sold under
such liberal guarantee.
Orrine is prepared In two forms: No

in pill form. for those who wish to be
cured of the habit. and 1t should be
taken by every one who swears off,
