THE SURPRISE OP ALL.
Mr. James Jones, of the drug firm of
Jones & Son, Cowden, Ill., in speaking of
Dr, King's New Discovery, says that last
winter his wife was attacked with La
Grippe, and her case grew so serious that
physicians at Cowden and Pana could do
nothing for her. It seehmed to develop into
hasty consumption. Having Dr. King's
ew Discovery in store, and selling lots of
it, he took a bottle home, and to the sur
prise of all she began to 'get tbetter from thei
first dose, and half dozen dollar bottles
ured her stand and well. Dr. King's New
Discovery for consumption, coughs and
colds is gnaxanteed to do this good work.
Try it. Free trial bottles at R. B. Loryea's

The remarks delivered by Chairman
Hdge at the farmers' meeting last Monday
were so well put that we have heard them
highly spoken of by a number of gentle
men who are competent to judge. Mr.
Hodge is deeply in earnedt in the new
movement and we hope his fellow farmers
wvill give him the encouragement his zeal
deserves.
Doctor Woes made a good speech, too,
and it was exceedingly unfortunate that thei
time was so short he could not give his]
views in tull. We were quite anxious that
the doctor should have a good, square
chance to tell the people all he knows on
the matters under discussion at this meet
ing, so that they would fully understand
him and his motives. We hope at the next
meeting of the Farmers' Protective Associa
tion the time will not be limited when such
good and wholesome speeches are being
delivered. 'Tis true, we did not find o'ut
exactly what the doctor had to offer as a
remedy for the woes of the farmers, but it
was not his fault, because polhtics was for.
bidden to come into the discussion and tue
chairman's watch was fast ticking toj the
place wvhere the hands on the dial reached
the place that indicated the point that I
"time was out." We believe that in this
great and beautiful country, the home of 1
the free and the land of the brave, free
speeh goes largely towards giving us the I
freedom we often boast of, therefore when
the people in public meeting assemble and
a gentleman rises to give his views, he
should not be ham pere.d by the ticking of
the chairman's Waterbury. It is not right
nor is it tair. If the speaker does not war.
dcr off into strange subjects, he should be
allwed to make his speech without inter
ruption, untii he finishes, even if it takes
untilnight, and we hopa at the next meet
ing there will be no such foolisLness as a
'ti:.e limit" on account of "men living
long distances and are anxious to get
home." Let there be a [tull and free dis
cussion, and let no man be choked off as
long as his eloquence holds out to burn and
his tongue and m'nd are connectcd.

hamberlain's Cough Remedy Always
Proves Effectual.
There are no better medicines on the
arket than Chamberltin's. We have used
he Cough Remedy when all others failed,
nd in every instance it proved effectual.
Almost daily we hear the virtues of Cham
erlain's remedies extolled by those who
ave used them. This is not an empty
uff, paid for at so much a line, but is vol
mntarily given in good faith, in the hope
hat sufferng humanity may try these rein

ited.-From the dlenville (W. Va.) Path

A Regretted Assigment.
It is not often that we are called upon to
nnounce the failure of any of Manning's
)nsiness concerns and in the present in
stance we can truly say that it is with sin
:ere regret that we announce the business
ailure of Mr. J. H. Lesesne, one of our
roungest merchants, and whose pride was
n his business. Mr. Lesesne has made an
-ssignment for the benefit of his creditors
ithout having been sued or even threat
ued with suit. He assigned all of his as
nets voluntary, and refused to have himself
~laced in a position whereby he could get
he advantage of the homentead, to which
he law entities him as the head of a family.
1his step on the part of Mr Lesesue was
:aken after mature deliberation, after find
.ng that his mercantile business did not
varrant its continuance. "'he cause is plain
o all business men. Limiteid capital at the
seat of strong competition where, unless a
man is financially strong, it is only a mnat
er of time when lie is bound to taste of the
:up f bitter experienca and disappoint
tent. It is our hope that fortune will yet
mile upon our young friend, and that he
will vet he enabled to tarry out his in~ten
:ions to pay dollar for dollar on the in lebt
edness now standing against hiui, and tout
ome titme in the near future he wiil be.
:ome one of Manning's staunchest mer
:bants, for it is our belief that no maan eni
lowed with the sterling integrity of Mr.
escsne can he a permanent failure; like
ruth, lie will rise again.

An Old Idea.
Diery day strengthens the belief of emi
nent physicians that impure blood is the
cause of the majority of our diseases.
T wenty-five years ago this theory was used
as a basis for the formula of Browns' Iron
Bitters. The many remarkable cures effected
by this famous old household remedy are
sufficient to prove that the theory is correct.
Browns' Iron Bitters is sold by all dealers.
