Send mo no money. Only tell me which bonk to send. You certainly know of pome one who 1b sick some sufferer who will be grateful for the help my book offers. And that book tells of a wny to help. Tolls of a way so certain that T. as a physician, offer that help on trial. The book tells how for 30 years In hospitals nd at bedsides I searched for a way to cure deep-seated and difficult diseases. It tells how I perfected my prescription Dr. Shops Restorative. How by scientific experiment I traced out the causes that bring on chronic diseases. I found Invariably that where there was a weakness, the inside nerves were weak. Where there was a lack of vitality, the vital nerves lacked power. Where weak organs were found, I always found weuk nerves. Not the nerves commonly thought of, but the vital organs' nerves. The inside the Invisible nerves. This was a revelation. Then my real success began. Then I combined ingredients that would strengthen, that would vitalise, these nerves. That prescription I called a restorative. It Is known the world over now as Dr. Shoop's Restorative. After that I did not fail to cure one case in each hundred. In the extremely difficult cases, my failures for five years were one in each forty treated. I found cancer incurable. Cancer Is for surgery, not medicine. Then how to pet this prescription to sick ones everywhere was my thought. I must announce it in the public press. But, thought I, will they realise the real truth of my discovery, the real power of Dr. Shoop's Restorative? Then a way came to me like an inspiration. "I will offer it to the sick on trial. Then they will know I am sincere that my prescription Is unusual." I wrote a r.-llaMe druggist in each city and village In America. They agreed to co-operate with me. Now by any sick one

When I send It I will tell you of a druggist near by who will permit the month's trial. Use the Restorative a month. Then decide. If you say to the druggist. "It did not help me," that will relieve you of any expense whatever. He will bill the cost to me. This is my way of clearing your mind of all doubt as to what Dr. Shoop's Restorative can do. No matter how prejudiced, you cannot dispute this absolute security I offer. Tou cannot resist an offer like this If ou are at all sick. If you have a weakness write me. If you cannot do things like you used to do them, tell me about it. Write In confidence. As a physician I will tell you a way to help. Oet my book now to-day.

Under the order of Judge Plummer, of the Wabash Circuit Court, the 120,000 voted the Wabash River Traction Company by this township three years ago is to be refunded to the taxpayers. The tax levy was three and twotenths mills on the $100 valuation and the total sum collected was S2U.832.58, of which 1641.65 was expended for the cost of the election. Though the company refused the money no explanation for its action wtu ever gven, the lino being built precisely as required under the franchise and the public officials after the. formal rejection of the subsidy, have bean at a loss to know how to proceed for its distribution.

There are MB taxpayers in the city and. Including the country inside the township, the money will be distributed among 4,47a taxpayers. Some of the original taxpayers have sold the property on which they paid, others have mo veil away and the repayment of the exact amounts to the rightful persons involves endless labor and trouble.

If so. you remember with what dread and shrinking you awaited the day when you must endure the knife. The present-day surgeon appears to be possessed by a mania for operating, especially In cases of hemorrhoids or piles, and while the greater number of the profession do not recommend this "last resort" unless they honestly believe it necessary, the fact remains that much needless operating is done, and the patient put to much expense and suffering for what? To obtain a possible temporary relief; these words are used advisedly, because in Bine caaes out of ten the affliction returns and the patient is Just where he started from, oftentimes he could be cured much more simply and easily by the use of such a remedy at the Pyramid Pile Cure; this has come to be recognized as the best remedy on the market for the painful disease Bamed. and the druggists now sell more of It than all other pile remedies combined. The writer personally knows people who Were afflicted with the worst form of bleeding and protruding piles and who were permanently cured by the use of Pyramid Pile Cure. In every unu of these cases the attending physician had assured the sufferer that only by an operation could he rid himself of the dip. ase: so much for the infallibility of the doctor: This remedy, which Is sold by all drugfiat at the low price of 50 cents, is in suppository form, is applied directly to the fiarts affected, ,.1 1 performs its work quiet -y and painlessly. The Pyramid Drug Co., Marshall. Mich., will mail free to any address a hook telling all e bout piles or hemorrhoids, their cau ai.l .1.

Restorative MAJOR STEELE IS OUT FN miOHIUTIOI Appeals to the Republicans of the Eleventh District to Support Him Against Landis. LOOKS FOR A VICTORY Special to the Indianapolis Journal. MARION, Ind.. Feb. .-Major George W. Steele, former member of Congress from the Eleventh district, to-day made the long expected announcement of his candidacy for the place now held by Frederick Landis. The statement Is addressed to the Republicans of the district, and is as follows: "I hereby announce my candidacy for the nomination to the Fifty-ninth Congress. "I have arrived at the above conclusion after consulting as many of my friends as I could in a brief preliminary canvass and would not make the announcement unless I felt sure of an old-time victory. "I do not think the letter our present representative has circulated, wherein he claims a second nomination on account of, custom, will mislead the Republicans of the district, because they too well remember that my hist nomination was actively contested, although I had carried the district by 533 plurality when It was considered safely Democratic by nearly 2,000 plurality, and there are other precedents of this kind too numerous to mention. "Two years ago at the meeting of the congressional committee a time was fixed for the holding of the convention during a session of Congress, when matters of great Importance were pending in the House and before the ways and means committee, of which I had the honor of being a member. "This made it impossible for me to come home and make anything like a canvass for renomination without neglecting my duty as your representative, which I never did. In fact. I was unable to make my canvass of Huntington. Wabash or Cass counties, and only a very limited one of Blackfora county. Not only this. I put my friends in Wabash and Huntington counties to a great disadvantage by requesting them to support their home candidates, and also my friends in Cass county by requesting them to accept a proposition made to them by the friends of tho present representative that each should have one-half of the delegates for that county, with the understanding that they were all to vote for the home candidate while he had a chance for nomination. "We went to the convention two years ago, however, with several more of the delegates favorable to my nomination than were for the other candidate, fifty-two of them voting for me over a thousand ballots, never flinching or faltering, of which I speak with genuine pride. "I refer to my record as a soldier, as your representative and as your prompt and obedient servant, feeliug sure that it has your approval. "If nominated I will be elected, and I promise to serve faithfully In the future as In the past all of the people of this great district."

Gregg, witness said the widow took George to a health resort in Michigan and sent witness to her home in Paris. Ky. When George was sick and witness wanted to fix the bed of her husband, Mrs. Sarah Gregg would not let her do It, and told him to order her downstairs and out of the house. He refused to do It at lirst. but finally did, and witness went to a neighbor's house, where she remained all nignt. In the morning Mrs. Gregg went alter her and persuaded her to return. The trial closed for the day after the introduction of five letters written to witness by George Gregg, while he was in Michigan and she in Kentucky.

TYPHOID GERMS. The microscope shows that in the blood of every person suffering from typhoid the little germs can be found as shown above. They are supposed to get into the water or milk we drink. The germs multiply so that one germ is capable of producing about ore hundred trillion germs in twenty four hours. That i why if they ever get into the water supply of a town they multiply so fast that nearly everybody drinking the water comes down with the disease. There are exceptions, however, and they are the persons whose health is perfect, whose blood is pure, and liver active. When the germs get into a healthy body they are thrown off with the other poisons. Recent Chicago statistics shew that one-eighth of all the deaths in the past two years in that city have resulted from pneumonia. The best advice we sn give is to put tha body into a perfectly sound, healthy condition. Be assured that you have rich, red blood and an active liver. Many years ago Dr. R. V. Pierce, who ia consulting surgeon to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute at Buffalo, N. V , found certain herbs and roots which, whea made into an alterative extract (without the use of alcohol), seemed to be the very best means 01 putting the Kotnach. blood and vital organs into proper condition. This seemed to him as close to nature's way of treating disease as it was possible to go. For over a third of a century Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery has had a wonderful sale and the cures resulting from its use are numbered by thousands. It is a tissue-builder, better than cod Ittcf oil because it does not sicken the stomach, or offend the taste. It strengthens or renews the assimilative or digest n-e processes in the stomach and puts on healthy flesh when the weight of the invalid is reduced below the normal.
