achtLiver Cure

The Most Astonishing Medical Discovery of the Last One Hundred Years. , it is Pleasant to the Taste as the Sweetest Nectar. It is Safe and Harmless as the Purest Milk. This wonderful Nervine Tonic has only recently been introduced into this country by the Great South American Medicine Company, and yet its great value as a curative agent has long been known by the native inhabitants of South America, who rely almost wholly upon its great medicinal powers to cure every form of disease by which they are overtaken. This new and valuable South American medicine possesses powers and qualities hitherto unknown to the medical profession. This medicine has completely solved the problem of the cure of Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Liver Complaint, and diseases of the general Kervou3 System. It also cures all forms of failing health from whatever cause. It performs this by the Great Nervine Tonic qualities which it possesses and by its great curative powers upon the digestive organs, the stomach, the liverand the bowels. No remedy compares with this wonderfully valuable Nervine Tonic as a builder and strengthener of the life forces of tho human body and as a great renewer of a broken down constitution. It is also of more real permanent value in the treatment and cure of diseases of the Lungs than any ten consumption remedies ever used on this continent It is a marvelous cure for nervousness of females of all ages. Ladies who are approaching the critical period known as change in life, should not fail to use this great Nervine Tonic almost constantly for the space of two or three years. It will carry them safely over the danger. This great strengthener and curative is of inestimable value to the aged and infirm, because its great energizing properties will give them a new hold on life. It will add ten or fifteen years to the lives of many of those who will use a half dozen bottles of the remedy each year.

NERVOUS DISEASES. As a cure for every class of Nervous Diseases, no remedy has been able

to compare with the Nervine Tonic, which is very pleasant and harmless in all its effects upon the youngest child or the oldest and most delicate individual. Nine-tenths of all the ailments to which the human family is heir, are

dependent on nervous exhaustion and

insufficient supply of nerve tood in the biooa, a general state 01 aeDiuty ox the brain, spinal marrow and nerves is the result Starved nerves, like starved muscles, become strong" when the right kind of food is supplied, and

a thousand weaknesses and ailments disappear as the nerves recover. As the

nervous system must supply all the power by which the vital torces ot tne body are carried on, it i3 the first to suffer for want of perfect nutrition. Ordinary food does not contain a sufficient quantity of the kind of nutriment necessary to repair the wear our present mode of living and labor imposes upon the nerves. For this reason it becomes necessary that a nerve food be supplied. This recent production of the South American Continent has been found, bv analysis, to contain the essential elements out of which nerve tissue

is formed. : This accounts for its magic CatwruHuevnxt, Inn., Ang.20,'88.

INDIANA REPUBLICANS.

THEY HOLD THEIR STATE CONVENTION AT FORT WAYNE. Cra J. Chase Renominated ibr Governor and Theodore ahooltuey for Lieutenant Governor Full Text of the Platform Adopted The Convention In Detail. A special from Fort Wayne, Ind., says: Not unlike tho scene in the exposition building at Mlnuoa polls a fortnight ago was) tho picture presented by the Interior of Indiana's Republican Convention hall at Fort Wayne. An enthusiastic throng nambertna; over .1,000 were comfortably se&tod in the vast hall, the tasteful and profuse decoration ot which with national emblems made it not only a thing of surpassing beauty, but an over present inspiration to the 1,430 delegates there assembled. Tlio convention was called to order by Chairman John K. Gowdy, of tho State Central Committee, who introduced the Rev. Dr. Moffat. The audience reverently arose and stood with bowed head while the Rev. Dr. Moffat invoked divine guidance through and over all the deliberations and acts of the convention. The report of the Committee on Rules and Permanent Organization was ro&d by Mr. Hawkins, Secretary of the Committee. Tho report named Cbarlos W. Fairbanks for permanent Chairman, and Gil Staraount for permanent Secretary. The rules adopted by the Fifty-second ill If GOV. IRA

Congress were to bo used for tho government of the convention insofar as they were applicable to a political gathering. The report was unanimously adopted. Chairman Fairbanks took up the gavel surrendered by Mr. Gowdy, and in distinct, measured tones clearly audible In every part Of the hall, addressed the first State Convention of a great political party that ever assembled in Indiana outsida of the State Capitol. At the conclusion of the Chairman's address, tho Convention took a recess until 1 o'clock. At a quarter past one Chairman Fairbanks seized the emblem of authority, called for order and asked for the report of the Committee on Credentials. The committee, finding no contests, recommended that the list of delegates reported to the State Central Committee be recognized. Tho report was unanimously adopted. Roxt In order was the report of the Committee on Resolutions. The reading of the platform was listened to with rapt attention, interrupted with generous and sometimes vociferous applause when an especially strong" or striking plank was reached. The following Is the platform in full: First Tho Republicans of Indiana heartily approve the declaration of principles . adopted by tho Republican National Convention at Minneapolis. As citizens of Indiana, we congratulate the people; of The State upon tho nomination for President of the ITnitcd States of our fellow citizen, Benjamin Ilarrfson. The administration of tho National' Government under his leadership has been marked by such wisdom and patriotism as to embrace the whole country and to give abundant assurance of its continuance, will add luster to the American name and increase the comfort of the American home. We commend tbe candidates of the Republican party and Nation as eminently worthy of the suffrages of an intelligent and patriotic people. The Democratic party has ever demonstrated its incapacity for government in both National and Stato affairs. In Indiana, belioving itself Intrenched behind a gerrymander of surpassing iniquity, it has show a reckless disregard for the people's interests and welfare, imposing intolerable burdens without benefits. We therefore condemn the Democratic management of our State affairs as incompetent, wasteful and iu the interests of office holders and party managers, and direct attention especially to the subjects hereafter mentioned. Debt and Democracy are synonymous terms with the taxpayers of this State. Unparalleled extravagance in public expenditures has marked tho course of the Democratic party in Indiana during tho past decade, until tbe Slate is now burdened with a debt of S(,000,00u, The current expenses of the State government have been rapidly increased by reckless mismanagement Tho burdens thus imposed have become too oppressive to bo endured. Odr progress as a people has been frequently impeded aud the credit of the State will soon become seriously Impaired unloss radical changes in the conduct of our public business are freoly introduced. Relief lies with the people and wo Invite the voters of all political opinions to unite in turning out f power the party tbat has always been false to Its plodges of honesty and reform. We arraign the Democratic party of Indiana for enacting an unequal and unjust tax. It imposes upon the farmer, laborer, and householder an excessive and unjust sbare of the public burden; it creates a great number of unnecessary ofliccs hitherto unknown to tbe law; to the .itirden that is already too heavy, it adds more than one hundred thousand dollars to the fees and .salaries and expenses of these offices and officers. We demand its radical revision. We pled re ourselves to onact such amendments to the present tax law as shall relieve the farm and the home from the unjust taxation now Imposed by them, which should place a just slibrc of that public burden on capital and corporate property and provide a mora simple and less expensive method of assi-ssmMht Wo coihUiiiui thi! aeiiou of the last Democratic Logisluluri In laiitcly in-"-rt,C- . - i f ' f

public offices sinecures by providing for the performance of olli lal duties by deputies paid out of tho public treasury. The laws passed by tl o last Democratic Assembly apportloi inft tbe State for legislative ami ccngrossloml purposes were designedly and wickedly framed so as to deny to many counties and localities fair and equal representation in tbe legislative departments of tbe State and nation and to place and retain under temocratlc control in this State ail its public institutions and affairs and to give that party Increased and unfair representation In Congress and tho Slate Legislature. Sucb a policy is dangerous and destructive of all government aud merits the condemnation of all patriotic people. And wo now pledto tho Republican party to contlnti'! the warfare against this dishonest policy of tbe Democratic partj until the State shall be honestly apportioned by giving each county aud locality its :.'air and equitable representation in tho legislative departments ot the State and Nation and each party re resent.tion in proportion to its membors. We denounce the purpose of the Democratic party, clearly avo-ved in the National platform, to repeal the law imposing the 10 per cent, ta:; on Stftto batik Issues and thus remove the only barrier to a return of "wild-cat monev," which once disgraced our Stave ind largely impoverished our people. The Democratic party deserves the emphatic condemnation of every citizen of the State for its refuse I to place our benevolont institutions ujion a non-partisan basis, when murder, cruelty, debauchery and fraud s.ru. incompetency

J. CHASE. mark that party's Management of many of those institutions, and for still persisting in retaining partisan control of these asylums of the helpless and uufort in He, that they may be made the ccin in payment for party services. We therefore demand absolutely non-p: rtisan management ot the benevolent, penal and reformatory institutions of the Stato through boards whose members shall be appointed by the Governor from the different political parties of the State, to the end tbat they may t o relieved from their present profligate tianagemnnt. We favor amending the law concern

ing tbe construction and maintenance of the public highways so .ts to utilize to the best advantage tho! urge, sums yearly expended thereon aud ttus put the farmer in close and easy con: munlcation with the market at all sc-asans of the year. Wo believe In the jonactmont by Congress of a law which was recommended bv President Harrison, compelling tbe use of tho standard safety couplers for the protection of the lives and limbs of employes engaged In intcr-state commerce! The people Ir tho employ of railroad companies in tils Stato form a largo percentage of its population and aro justly entitled to such legislation as will place them on an equality with such corporations befijrt- tho law. And wo are opposed to railroads maintaining insurance compauios by coercing their employes to become members of them. Tho employers of labor should be liable for damages for injury to persons or destruction of life where the employer is more at fault than the employe. We also believe in a law governing convict labor In the coiivlct institutions of tho State that will work the least possible injury to free Ii.bor. We are In synioatby with ail well directed efforts of laboring men to Improve their condition by united action or otherwise, and pledge ourselves to b;1vo them such aid by legislation as will tei.u to advance the Interests of wageworke-s. We most heartily endorse tbe generous pcision laws enacted by Rop'tblicans in Congress, and congratulate the country that during tbe admlnli trntloi of President Harrison no pouslcin bill has been vetoed. We demand that suitable and proper provision bom ado for tie care and maintenance of Indigent sc Idlers and their wives and widows, tha. no noldler,. or wife or widow of a sold er shall ever be an inmate of a poor house In tbe. State of Indiana, aud that such ptovision be made tbat the snldier when overtaken by poverty aud adversity, sball not, in bis declining years, be separated from the wife of his youth Wo therefore advocate tho establishment by tbe State, In connection with the Indiana department of tho Grand Army of the Republic, of a suitable stato soldiers' home for tbe care and maintenance ot indigent soldiers aud their wivei and widows, upon the plan recommended by the Grand Army of tbe Republic. Tho people of 'Indiana cherish tbe memory o:t Alvin P. (I Jvey, who was & native of this Slate, at.d with only such opportunities as worn open to all, rose to high positions In the State and Nation and distinguished himself as jurist, soldier and statesman. The Republicans of Indiana lament bis death as the loss of a trusted leader and of i statssman who crowned a long and useful career by a courageous and manly defense of the constitution be helped to frame and of the just powers of the State's chief executive. We tender to that eminent Republican leader, the Hon. Jam?s Q. Blaine ami tho members of his family our sincere sympathy and with tbein mourn tho loss of one who so recently iormod a part of their family circle The platform was adopted amid great enthusiasm. The following resolution was adopted: ift'sofnevl, That wn hereby adopt tbe American eagle as the emblem of the Republican party for i so on tho ballots to be voted throughout tho State of in(liana, Iu conformity to the law on that subject.

The resolution was unanimously adopted and the convention adjourned. Buying Out aHotelkeeper." Once mora the foaming beaker was passed arou:id, and then the second old man began his second anecdote. Our company played one night in a town eight miles distant from Danielsonville, Connecticutt. It was in the spring, and the weather was beautiful. In the morning, before the company started for Danielsc'uville, two of the men, who were great pedestrians, went to the manager and asked his permission to walk to the next town. The permission was granted, and the two fellows ground off at the rate of four miles per honr, arriving in Danielsonville a little before the rest of the company rolled in on the cars. Accommodttlions for the entiro pa: ry bad been engaged by the advance :tgent at the one hotel of the place. The manager went to the hotel and inquired what kind of rooms were ready for his people. "Idon't know that we can give you any, said the clerk, looking coldly at the manager." "What do yon mean? Didn't our agent make arrangements with you?" "Ves; but I've changed my mind since." "Changed your mind! What for, I'd like to know?" "That's my affair." "And the clerk cooly turned his back and walked away. The enraged and mystified rr anager rushed out to seek other accommodations. Of course, he did not find any. But while out he met the two men who walked down. "Didn't pet any rooms, did you? asked one of thorrj. "No; wbnt's the matter here?" "Well, 111 tell you. Some kind friend of the hotel keeper telegraphed him that the company was broke aud twooliem had to walk'." The beaters of the second old man gave vent to various expressions of diugueet at this instance of Yankee shrewdness. "What did the manager do?' asked Ptnxrimander. "Well, I'll tell you," answered the narrator. "He had $1,500 in small bills done up in two rolls so that they looked as if they contained much more. He went back to the hotel and called for the proprietor. That person approached in a haugh ty manner and coldly said. "Well, air, v hat do you want?" The manager looked at him from head to foot. The:a ha drew ont his Tolls of money and, slamming them down on the counter, asked in a voice of thunder: "What'll you take for your infernal little shanty?" "The astounded landlord fell of about two tons.. Then he bowod very low and, rubbiig his hands together, said : "What can I do for you to-day, sir?" Theatrical Reminiscence Sfew York Times. Would Starve Before Ho'i Fay That. At Perryvllle, on the Pennsylvania railroad, a thin old man with a month like a cruller climbed on board a south-bound train. He carried an umbrella tied up with a shoestring,

and an oltl valise, which looked as if it had been with Lee at Appomattox. He sat down on a cross seat near the the door, deposited his property, and beckoned to a train boy who was passing with a basket of sandwiches. "Got anything ter eat, young feller?" "Sandwiches ham, chicken, and tongue." "Are they fresh?" "Certainly." "There ain't no 'certainty' about it." objected the old man emphatically; "the sandwich business is ticklish in hot weather." "They'TC fresh," said the boy impatiently "only been made an hour." "I'd rather like a chicken sand wich." remarked the old man, "if I knowed I wouldn't draw a wing." "No wings, sir all clear meat.". "Spose you let me see one of them sandwiches-" "Can't, sir they are all wrapped up. Take one?" "How much do yon ask fer 'em?" "Ten cjnts." "Notfoy the dozen, young feller; how much for one?" "Ten c-jnts." "Great day 'n niornln'" gasped the old man, horror-stricken "ten cents fer t wo bits of bread and a smell of chicken?'' I'm hungry enough ter eat a pickax, but I'm game, and 1 tell you, boy, before I pay ten cents for one li'itle sandwich I'll set hero and roll tuy eyes and swollcr all the way to Uowitermer."

FOSTER'S FORECASTS.

What we may expect in the way of weather, A Storm Wavs Will Cros-t tlui Great Central Valley from July I to 14, Reaching the Eastern frtsttos About tho lStl), Meteorological Matters. My last bulletin gave forecasts of the storm waves to cross the ccntincnt from June 30 to July 4 and July 6 to 10, and the next will reach the Paoillc coast a bout the 10th, cross the Western mount ains by close of tho HUT, he great centrn l rail ys from 12th to 14th and the Easter a States about the loth. The path of this storm will bo well to the nerth, very hot weather south of it along the middle and southern lii ti-cudes, and It will be at Its greatest force from 13th to loth, after passing east of the Mississippi. A wave of cooler and refreshing weather will move eastward, crossing tbe Western mountains about the 13th, tho great central valleys about the 15th, and the Eastern States about the 17th The 1892 drouth, which made its appearance in si ots during April line I May, will have spread to about its greatest dimensions by the 15th of July, and a fair estimate may then bo m win as to what will be the effect on crops. The turning point of the drouth will be about the middle of July, but many places will not be relieved till late in August. I have no reason to change my estimate, made in 1891, that our greatest crops will be found along and north of the fortieth parallel, while mcny local crop failures will be found in the southern part of the United Statee. Counties of more than 2,000 ieet elevation were not generally included among those where crops would fail. Vegetation and Coal. Newborry, the geologltit, says that quite a number of foreign bouMers and other transported rook are fouid in the coal veins or utuo. rnese rxmiaers, in order to be In the cool ve n, must have been deposited there while It wan form ing. How could these numerous foreign rocks get into a coal vein being lormea ot vegetable decay f The only means by which foreign boulders and other rock are transported is in doen water bv k-o or root oi' trees. and to have this deep water and the forming eoal vein at the same time Is an impossibility. To form coal from vogetation there must be dry or swamp land afterward coverec with water. and with these conditions the boulders are found on the top of the coal veins. But, as Newberry soys, there are numerous cases where these rocks that have come lone journeys are found im bedded in the eoal vein, oompletely im mersed in coal. Remember that these coal -imbedded boulders are not otherwise found in the vicinity of the coal veins, but Are gen erally recognized as belonging: zo rock formations that lie hundreds of miles away to the northward. Now let some advocate give, If he can, any reasonable means by which these foreign stones got to the forming coal-beds while vegetation was growing. Evidently this proves that tbe eoal veins were lata uown in oeep water where coal-producing vegetation cannot grow, and indicates tha': otr coal beds came from sources Hlmilar to those from whence are the other formations of the earth. Prof. Vail says that a boulder weighing 200 pounds, found In the middle oi a coal seam, is now in the museum at Columbus, Ohio, and is an irrefutable evidence that the coal vein from which it was taken finished its formation after the Jxmlder fell Into It and that foreign boulders thus Imbedded are often found at NelBonville and Carbor-dnio, Ohio. Numerous instances are known where clay seams no thicker thiol a knife blade are found parting two coal veins, no vegetable fossils in the olay and a foot or more oi coal aoove mis niay seam. How could -be vegetation exist to form these heavy coal veins above that thin as paper day seam? Is it not far more reasonable tnat tne coal fell from above Into the sea, and after a portion of it settled, a great river, at Its Hood, sudd ted the water, the clay quickly totting on the first coal vein and after that '.he car!on that still floated in the waters settled on tbe clay ocean? Carbon forms it: the stove-pipe or the chimney from smoke, because tho oxygen of the atmosphere -foes not reach the smoke In sufflo.ont quantity to combine with it and form carbonic acid gas. But the greater portion of the carbon which is carried up in the form of smoke forms the gas by uniting with oxygen. This cat bonlc acid gas is the food of plant life, and although It is not combustible will not burn It furnishes the carbon of vegetable growth, and is the substance of vegetation whieh gives its fuel properties. Carbonic acid gs also unites with, oi dissolves in water, In tbe proportion of 2 volumes of gas to 3 ot water. There are, therefore, two ways by which carbon in the atmosphere may return to solids of the earth; one through vegetation and ono through water. Chemists tell us that there is now about one part of enrhoulo acid gas In our atmosphere to 25,000 parts of other matter. The smoke that constantly rises from all kinds of Ore s, including volcanoes, saturates our atmosphere with carbon, and we know that a portion of this comes back to solid ear Jh through vegetation. But does any part of it change back to carbon in any other way ? Tens of thousan Is of lakes In North America and Non hern Europe have their bottoms oovored with carbon mud. Many of these lakes liave been drained and the black mud at thjlr bottoms Is found to t e very similar to kennel eoe.l. As a rule these ponds have no v Rotation, and therefore th:.s carbon mud could not have come from vegetable decay. It must have been, In the long ages, precipitated from the atmosphere, and as evldenoe of thie. the fu.et that carbonic acid gas readily unites with water has has an Important bearing. Anothor pertinent fact is that where peat Ib found it if- underlaid by this same black carbon mud that we find at the bottom of takes, and this Is strong evidence that this curbon mud was first laid down, and from ir, originated the vegetation that forms our peat beds. Take fresh s.iot from the stovc-plpo, submit It to heated steam vapors, place It in a vessel of water where light can reach it. and you will see vegetat'on spring up, propa -ato their kind, ami die, and heroin wo have strong evidence that the carbon produces the vegetation, instead of v. getation producing the carbon. Is; it, theiefore, not more reasonable to affirm i.hat piat moss originates from the carbon mud found In the bottom ot our lakes than that tho reverse Is true? To utterly cverthrov; the accepted theory of the origin of coal, all that is no -essary is to show how the carbon could have reached ami remained for a time suspended In our atmosphere without destroying all animal and vegetable life, and this I will eudeavor to do when I am done with tho negntive side of the subject and pro -cod to the discussion of Its affirmative.

The following, made up from the reports of Its numerous correspondents, appears in the Farmers' llevlew of this week: Spring; Wheat. In Illinois all of the Hpring whsat is ill fair' to good condition, mostly good. The same Is true . of Michigan. Ka-isas, Iowa, Wiacc tain, Minnesota and tbe Dakotas. In Nebraska only nino per tent, of the correspondents r iport a-ood. one-half ot the remainder recortuia fata-. jpd the reet poor. In Illinois oatn are reported in fair to nod condition, with the exception of about 2) per cent, of the correepon clents who report pooe, Indiana gives a stilf better report, only shout 7 per cent, of the correspondents giving; tha outlook as bad. In Ohio only 16 per cent, report poor, and in Michigan only li per Cfllit. In Kentucky the outlook ia very favorable, two counties only reporting a bad stand. In Missouri the stand is good, but sot so favorable aa in tbe States mentioned. About so per ce it- of the correspondents report the crop in gooacoaditlon; 20 per cent. In fair condition, and the others report the stand as ltq'it. The cntlook in Kansas is slightly bulow that ot Missouri, SO per cent, reporting good; SO per cent, fat: and 20 cent. poor. Nebraska again drops l:low Kansas, 13 per cent, of the coiTespondentii only reporting good: 32 per cent, fair, and thu rest poor. In Iowa a little less than one-third report the crop in good condition, and the rest report fair, with one exception. In Wironatn, Minnesota and the Dakota the crop is in fine shape as a general thing and in many Bounties the crop will be above the average. Onlp two counties in the three States report poocWlntor Wheat. In Illinois winter wheat is generally bi fine shape. Two-thirds of the counties report the crop an average or above, all of the others reporting fair. The same is true of Indiuru and Ohio, with the exception of about 13 pel cent, in the two States .that report poor. Only one in ten of the correspondents m Michigan report poor, the others fair to good. In Kentucky tho crop is especially fine, while in Missouri only ittteea per cent, report thu outlook as bad. In ' per cent . of the counties the crop will be an average or above. In Kansas, Kebrattka, and Iowa the crop is reported at from fair to abore aa average. Is Wisconsin 40 per cent. repoH the crop an average or above. r,ne same nninfcer. report fair, and the remainder poor. What tittle winter wheat there is in Minnesota ia ia poor condition, with few exceptions. Fruit. The prospects for trait in Illinois er-j very poor. Not over 6 per cent, of the oomepondents report the outlook good. About 27 per cent, report a talr out look tor most kinds, ont all of the others report the prospects as very bad. and In some counties the fruit error. :is almost a failure. The same conditions prevail in Indiana and Ohio. In Michigan lesi than one-third report the fruit crop an average or above; an equal number npxrt It from 5 to as per cent, below an average, and the others report poor. In Kettucky one-fifth of tbe correspondents report the condition as good; 35 percent, report lair, the others poor. In Missouri, Kaasaii, and Nebraska the prospects are very poor, very few of the correspondents reporting the avp an average or above. In Iowa the condition of fruit shows great variation, the outlook: tn 3S per cent, of the counties being good, anil in a like number being very poor: in the others fair. In Wisconsin and the Dakotas thu oatlook is good generally, while in Minnesota it ta in fair to good condition in three-founibs of the counties. CROPS HELP TRADE. The Improvement of the Weelt Has Reen Marked. R. G. Dun's weekly review of i . ade says: Another week hax blosed thcountry with great improve:nent In the growing crops. In wheat so trie at u change of condition appears thai iuiu begin to question whether the yield thK year will not closely approxiiuat e tho unprecedented crop of 1SM1. Ifor other grain and cotton the outlook :f decidedly better, and there is reason now to hope for highly satisfactory results from the year's agriculture. In consequence there is stronger trade throughout the country, espeola ly at Western centers of distribution. The improvement is less marked at the South, owing to the low price ot cotton and continued high water in some regions. The one point of anxhrey in regard to the wage dispute In tbo iron manufacture operates for the present to cause increased trade, while In other groat Industries the situation ia clearly more favorable than usual. Atohlson Olole Proverbs. '- - The Lord hears lots about the faults" of husbands from over-religious wives. After all, the most agreeable men in the world axe those who know when It 1b time to go. A mas can't love a woman he doos not trust; women love men ever" day they can't trust. These are none agninst whon men need protection so much as those whom they implicitly trust. A KMENii's help in your troubles never travels beyond the point where It affects his own Interest;!. That men are different than women is eons dtvred by the men as suillcien'. warrant for all their fol iea.
