differing, however, as to Mr.. Bryan, as
well as to what constitutes Democrat.
To us the loss of States to the Demo-
Gratis came not from Bryan who ac-
cepted nomination which went beg

humiliation of the party by the despi-
cable Democracy of Grover Cleveland,
held the party in place as no other
nomination could have held it, and
carried it to victOry-a victory which
was turned into defeat at the last mo-

corruption of Mark Hanna, aided by
the outpouring of money by about
every corporation in the United States.

Beware of Ointme ntS for Catarrh
that contain Mercury,

as mercury will surely destroy the sense
of smell and completely derange the
whole system when entering it through
the mucous surfaces. Such articles
should never be used except on pre-
scriptions from physicians, as the
damage they will do is ten fold to the
good you can possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufac-

DISTINCTIONS AND DIFFERENT
CES,

We have been disguised with the in
consistency of persons at times who
seek to belittle the character of Mr..
Bryan. We make no reference to Re
publicans, but refer to that element in
the Democratic party which ''holier
than thou'' cannot bring themselves to
join the masses of the party in an effort
to give relief from political evils, by the
election of Democratic president. We
hear them reason as follows:
The simile "Crown of thorns and
cross of gold" used by Mr.. Bryan was
sacriligious, but the removal of SIN
God we trust" from the coins by Mr..
Roosevelt, was simply mistaken pol
icy.

The government ownership of rail-

propaganda. Government control by
Mr.. Roosevelt is the height of states

kidney trouble.
Kidney trouble causes quick or unsteady
heart beats, and makes one feel as though
they had heart trouble, because the heart is
'ver-working in pumping thick, kidney
poisoned blood through veins and arteries.
1t used to be considered that only urinary
roubles were to be traced to the kidneys,
but now modern science proves that nearly
all constitutional diseases have their BEGIN

by first doctoring your kidneys. The mild

The Chicago platform of 1896, on
which Mr.. Bryan stood was said by his
enemies to contain plank discrediting
the U. S. Supreme Court-a terrible
outrage. An act introduced in Con-
gress just before the close of the session
with ROOsevelt's consent, seeking to
drive four judges off that bench, has
met with no adverse criticism from
them.
The panic of 1898 was charged to the
Democrats, and the election of Mr..
Bryan it was asserted would forever
destroy confidence and continue de-
preston, hence all trusts and corpora
tons did a righteous act in giving mon
ey to defeat him. ROOsevelt's admin
istration results in the most terrific
panic ever known, and yet he is in no
wise charged with it, and in no wise
to blame.

The baneful influence of some streets
on morals is shown by dark, crooked,
narrow, obscure streets and alleys
which foster physical and moral
disease. Objectionable resorts, dives
or denS do not thrive light, straight,
broad, open thoroughfares. Many
parts of Paris, London and other cities,
large and small have introduced broad
avenues in latin quarter and
east-end or an east side with
splendid results.
GENERAL PRINCIPLES OF CONSTITUTE
TON.
The next division of the subject
which will briefly outline is that of
general principles Of pavements.
Foundations are needed for all pave
ments to make them durable. These
foundations are generally of concrete,
of crushed stone or clean gravel, mixed
with mortar of hydraulic cement and
sand. Other foundations are made
from crushed stone held together by
bituminOuS cement. Some fOunda-
tions are of large broken stones, packed
with smaller ones. Old pavements OF
cobble stones, stone blocks, macadam
and gravel are often used for founda-
lions by first covering them with a
thin bituminouS concrete. This is
true economy for community which
has already paid for and possesses such
macadam or other old payementS and
uses them for foundations OF new and
improved pavements.
The pavement wearing surface is
next placed upon the prepared foun-
dation. This wearing surface is what
is referred to by the public as the
pavement, whereas the whole struct-
ure, foundation and wearing surface,
is the pavement. The wearing sur
face should be of materials which will
meet the special requirements of the
special street where used and which
can be quickly and economically re-
paired at long intervals when needed.
KINDS OF PAYMENTS.
The materials used with varying
good and poor success for pavement
wearing surfaces, arranged alphabetic-
ally, are as follows: asphalt OF various
kinds, asphalt blocks, basalU blocks,
bitulithic pavement, boulder stones,
bricks Of various kinds and shapes,
cement concreteS, cobble stones, doler-
lite blocks, oyster shells, granite blocks,
gravel, limestone blocks macadam,
sandstone blocks, scoria or Stag blocks,
Syenite blocks, tarred and oiled ma
cadams, trap blocks, wood blocks.

New Policies Of the Prudential.

New Policies OF the Prudential.
A new style in life insurance policies
is shown in the Ordinary policies is
sued by The Prudential Insurance
Company since January /, 1908. The
new policy is described by life insur-
ance men as artistically the most beau
tiful policy sold.
The new form is used for policies
from $500 and 81, 0OOup. The Pruden-
tial has put ont this pictorially new
style of policy in order to make The
Prudential's New Low-Cost Policy Zap
plications for which the Company's
agents are writing in such large num-
bers) different from and better than
anything issued before. The policy is
printed in colors, light and dark
browns combined, and light and dark
greys combined. The new policy is
clear and simple in language and is a.
plain, straight promise to pay. There
are no confusing technicalitieS and
every feature is guaranteed.
On the first page is beautiful pict-
ure, illustrating Prudence protecting
UIlC 1dulllys Il6lG dIG dloO uS uIGSS
representing Commerce and Industry.
The mission and spirit of The Pru-
Dental are thoroughly symbolized in
the designs.
ALL the Industrial policies of The
Prudential also appear in new dress,
and in addition contain some attrac-
tive new features.
The new automatic extended insur-
ance clause in the Industrial policy
provides that if the policy be lapsed
at any time after three years, without
any action on the part of the insured,
the policy will be continued in force
on the books of the Company for the
full amount, for the period shown in
the table Of extended Insurance in the
lpolicy.
Another attractive feature of the
new Industrial policy is that it con-
tains tables showing exactly the
amount of cash, paid-up insurance or
extended insurance available in event
of lapse. Both the new Industrial
policy and the new Ordinary policy
contain many attractive and liberal
features and are sold at low cost.

Demand Our Best Men

We clipped from the Chicago Eve
ming Post OF recent date few
thoughts that are worthy the consi-
deration of all voters and all VINO ever
expect to vote. II was to the effect
that State and local elections should
be eliminated from National and Con-
gressional elections. Or in other words
the head of the ticket would often
carry through worthless candidates
for local office on election day. Voters
generally have an aversion to scratc.,
ing tickets and if the election days
were kept apart as stated men could
act intelligently and none but the best
would be selected.
