Thomas Marshall. the Fort Wayne Sentinel said: He has the intellectual stature to make his party and his state proud of him. lie is a student of affairs and has a 1 true statesman's grasp of th e problems of government. His character is with-, out blemish and his Jg most variously gifted. Men who know him love him for his geniality, his exalted qualities of manhood. The Indiana Democracy has seldom had opportuni- ■ ity to go forth to battle under the leadership of a man so splendidly equipped by all masterly and Inspiring qualities | to march at the head of the column. He has matchless gift of oratory and in the campaign h e can rally the party as ■ we believe no other man can rally j it. So that to his superb fitness is added an uncommon strength both in the party and outside of it. He merits the honor and his nomination will itself be almost a complete vouchsafement of victory. It was to be expected, of course.that whatever the outcome of the Democratic state convention might be. the nominee for governor would be ac-

claimed by his party as the verystrongest candidate that could possibly have been put up. In the case of Mr. Marshall it must be granted, however, that the claim has much reason in i s support. Without saying anything against any of the other candidates, it is plain that some of the leading ones would have had to shoulder a burden of opprobrium, perhaps unjust and manufactured to order, but nevertheless a burden that would have told upon them as the campaign wore on. Mr. Marshall is an able lawyer, a good citizen and a man gifted with many popular qualities. It will nonprofit his republican opponents to undprss{jma.e either the civic capacity or the political acumen of the man they have to beat—giar (Rep.) GREATEST EVER fContinued from page 1.1 he needed to nominate. Perry Stanley, sheriff of Noble county, who had kept track of the balloting, stood up on his chair and called out: “It’s Marshall now for sure.” Again the flags were waved and it was five minutes before the secretary could call the next county. Wells and Wabash counties swung into line handsomely, and the last county called wnas Whitley, "Little Whitley,” Mr. Marshall’s home county. Tom Marshall’s eyes were moist and the voice of Whitley’s spokesman shook as he announced the vote, For perhaps a minute there was silence in the hall. Then someone in the Eighth district sang out: “Three cheers for Marshall!" The three cheers were given, and three more, Mr. Ralston, Mr. Slack, ; and State Chairman Jackson rushed Ito seize Mr. Marshall’s hand as the secretary sat down to add up the figi ures, and pandemonium broke loose on I the floor.

LEARN TO EAT. Few People in Decatur Really Know How. Slow eating will solve onehalf the problems of ill health. Those who suffer with indigestion and weak stomach can with care and the use of Mi-o-na stomach tablets restore the digestion to a healthy condition, so that they can eat what they want at any time without fear of distress or suffering. After a few days’ use of Mi-o-na stomach tablets, the headaches, dizzy i feeling, drowsiness, bad taste in the ' mouth, coated tongue, flatulence, sleeplessness, distress after eating—all these symptoms of a weak stomach will disappear, and perfect digestion and good health will be restored. Holthouse Drug Cd. have so much confidence in the power of Mi-o-na to cure indigestion that they offer to refund the money should it fail to giv e satisfaction. SULTAN O' ANS.

IT SAVED MY LIFE WRITES ECZEMA PATIENT. Bedridden Sufferer Completely Cured by Use of D. D. D. External Wash. One of the most remarkable Eczema cures recently credited to the well known D. D. D. Prescription has just been recorded in Chicago. Mrs. E. Hegg, 1550 West Madison street, under date of Dec. 9, 1907, writes as follows: “I suffered three, years with Weeping Eczema. It started with a little spot on my knees and spread so fast over my whole body. I spent hundreds of dollars and went to every good doctor I heard of, but kept getting worse. Nothing would stop the awful itch and burning. T had to stay In bed from the middle of May to tht middle of July. Then I tried D. D. D. Proscription. This is the 9th of December and I am entirely free from the terrible disease. D. D. D. saved my life. “When I began this treatment, people were afraid of me I looked so terrible. My husband was the only one who would take cane of me. D D. D stopped the itch at once so I could sleep, which I had not done before. Then I began to get better fast and now my skin is clear and white, not a spot anywhere.” Just a few drops of D. D. D. Prescription applied to thei skin brings relief—nothing to swallow or drink We vouch for D. D. D. also the cleansing D. D. D. Soap. (Name and address of druggist.)
