Governor Richard Yates is the son of Richard Yates, the war governor of Illinois.

Yates is to Illinois what Roosevelt is to the energetic, ambitious, progressive element in the east. One of the most convincing speakers in the west, ho is a man of great personal magnetism, as an incident during the President's inauguration reception at the white house showed. The Hamilton club of Chica go were received by President McKinley in the east room. After the introduction, Bank Examiner Lamson sang "Illinois," the last line changed to "True to Yates and McKinley, Illinois."

One source of Gov. Yates' great strength with all classes is his willingness to rccognize merit and to employ the best means, without fear or favor.

In the amount of kidney, liver and heart disease. Anyone who reads tho heartfelt, emphatic letters that have appeared from men and women who owe their health and often their lives to Paine's celery compound, will be impressed by the sincerity in every line.

This great modern scientific invigorator and health-maker is doing an enormous amount of lasting good these spring days Its success in making people well has had no parallel Jin the history of medicine. It has1 cured thousands of cases of rheumatism and neuralgia, many of longstanding that have been despaired of by friends and physicians.

If all the mon and women who have got rid entirely of nervous debility, threatened nervous exhaustion, sleeplessness Sand such organic troubles as kidney, liver and stomach diseases by its help during the past year alone could be brought together, what an army of grateful people It would make!
