Rheumatic Pains Conquered by First Dose Of Uric-0

A TrUI Free to All Who Never Os.ed it - Mr. Prank Howe, a prominent farmer of Baldwinsville, N. Y says: “1 Visited the best physician in this coonCry.who treated me for about 2 years for rheumatism. I spent tn that time apvcr u iiundi-ed dollars and seemed to grow worse instead > of. better each 4ay- Being on crutches and forced Co drive to the train and hobbling to the doctor’s office became very discouraging, let alone the sleepless nights and fearful hours of pain. Being vised by a friend 1 purchased Smith’s Urico-0 prescription, took it home and used it that day as directed. “Those fearful static pains left me, my blood seemed to let loose and flow freely, 1 felt different and knew next and rested well all that night, something I had not done for two yearn I used in all six bottles of Urlc-0 and have never felt a return of the diseas* had no use for crutches or cane since the first day's treatment “I have Since recommended Urio-O to hundreds of friends and acquaintances and in every instance it gave remarkable relief.” Anyone who doubts Mr. Howe’s experience is invited to write him for further details. The manufacturers have so much Confidence in the remedy Chat they will gladly give a large TSc bottle of Uric-O free to all ■ Rheumatics who have never used it and are looking for a permanent, lasting cure foe this most distressing disease.

THE MOST COMMON CAUSE OF SUFFERING. Rheumatism causes more pain and suffering than any other disease, for the reason that it is the most common of all ills, and it is certainly gratifying to sufferers to know that Chamberlain’s Liniment will afford reltefr •and make rest and sleep possible. In many cases the relief from pain, which is at first temporary, has become permanent, while in old pople subject to chronic rheumatism, often brought on by dampness or changes in the ■weather, a permanent cure cannot be •expected; the relief from pain which this liniment affords Is alone worth many times its cost, 25 and 50 cent Biles for sale by B.

A BIG HUMAN HEART

Basis of the Remarkable Personality of Indiana’s “Favorite Son,” Vice President Fairbanks. 'AS A MAN AND AS A STATESMAN Intimate and Delightful Ren Picture . of the Vice President as Drawn by Hon. Addison C.' Harris in the Current Number of the North American Review. * In the May number of the North American Review Hon. Addison C. Harris of Indianapolis, former ambassador to Austria, gives a splendid presentation of Vice President Fairbanks. He portrays him as a pure, upright man and an able, patriotic states--main — —— s : : Mr. Fairbanks’s devotion to his public duties has Impressed Mr. Harris: "No man’s career,” he says, “has ever better illustrated Mr, Cleveland’s dictum that public office is a public trust It is the whole-souled energy which Mr. Fairbanks devotes to every public responsibility devolving upon him, coupled with his broad, deep grasp of the great questions Of tfie day, and his keen perception and tinusual quality of practical common sense which renders him, like his warm friend, President McKinley—whom he very much resembles In many ways—such an unerring public servant But it is these very qualities which have made possible the Impression, among those who do not know him beyond his public appearance, that Mr. Fairbanks is cold, unresponsive, unsympathetic, Unapproachable. Nothing could be further from the truth than this conception of him. To see him hurrying down the marble corridor between the door of the senate chamber and the vice president’s room, one would naturally think him more or less unapproachable. Yet even there a familiar face never caught his eye but his hand flew out for a quick, cordial grip, his face lighted In a thoroughly genial smile, his keen, clear gray eyes looked a greeting that was far from unsympathetic, and a few words, quickly spoken in his deep, strong voice, carried an assurance of cordiality which left the recipient better satisfied with life and sure that a big, human heart, almost abnormally sensitive and sympathetic, beat under the absorbed exterior." * • • Mr. Harris paints a pleasant picture of the vice president’s personality and home life, which latter, he says, has been the soul of his sphere. The Influence his mother has been strong in his life, and this tribute is paid to hen "To see her strong, earnest. Intellectual face, to feel her firm, cordial handshake, to hear her voice Is another assurance of the qualities she imparted to her son. Among other things she planted the strong religious Instincts which pervade hts life. It Is not the Intense sectarianism which ts sometimes erroneously imputed Mr. Fairbanks; but a religious sense, deeper and broader than any specific creed, which permeates the fundamental oonvictipps of his life and accounts for his theories of the sacredness of fiduciary obligations, whether in business or politics.” ‘lllustrating this,” Mr. Harris goes -on,. "I recall an earnest conversation at a time- when action was Imperative In an Important crisis. A proposition was advanced carrying logical certainty of victory, but including Indorsement of a policy the correctness of which Mr. Fairbanks doubted. Instantly he shook his head and in his invariably gentle, but firm, decisive voice, replied: ‘lt is better to remain out of power than to win favor upon -false principle.’ “I believe that sentiment has been his gauge of action throughout his life. After graduating from college he was representative of the Associated Press at Pittsburg for a year, then at-Cleve-land. Meanwhile he studied law and was admitted to the bar by the supreme court of Ohio. In 1874 he settled in Indianapolis and practiced law uninterruptedly for twenty-three years.” • • • His political principles and equipment for the presidency are thus outlined: "His service In the senate and as vice president and his wide acquaintance throughout the country make him familiar with public questions and with the public need. If elected he will enter the executive office fully equipped for Its duties. He possesses the requisite ability, the knowledge of the men of the nation and the poise of character and temperament to make a president of the McKinley type. There is every assurance that he would organize an administration able and honest which would conduct the affairs of the government In a businesslike manner. He would recognize fully the rights of the several states and of the national government within their respective and appropriate jurisdiction, believing that such recognltlen is nee|Bßary for the preservation of our political institutions as they were ordained by the fathers. “He would regard the legislative, executive and judicial departments of the , government as being, each, supreme within Its appropriate sphere, nil es . them co-ordinating to n oemmoit end. "His service in the aenate will Mr !

able him to maintain those relations with the congress which are so essential to good administration. “He stands for the protective policy, because -it builds up American Industry, gives opportunity and wages to American workmen and oilers employment tc American capital In fuller measure than any other policy. He does not bold that schedules are sacred, btit he has always maintained that they Suoald be changed whenever there Is a sound, economic reason therefor; when more good than harm can be accomplished thereby. "His election would mean the maintenance of a sound monetary system, so far as 'executive authority fs required. “There would be no reactionary step with regard to those policies of McKinley and Roosevelt which have commanded the public confidence and the support of the best thought of the Republican party. Those policies with regard to the control of combinations of capital would be intelligently, fearlessly and with certainty carried out by the now administration. He has always stood for the best thought of the Republican party. “He believes In international arbitration, and that the most important work to be accomplished in the Inter national field is the establishment of some method of adjusting honorably questions arising between nations and without a resort to war. "He would maintain a foreign policy dignified, just and firm. There would be no fear that cohlslpn with other powers would unnecessarily be provoked. There would be proper respect for the rights of others and equal Insistence upon a proper respect tor our own. “He belongs to to faction. Hb Is upon good terms with all members of the party everywherek’*

Sounded His Own Death Knell.

Mr. Marshall, Democratic nominee for governor, has opened (he campaign for his party. He made blB first speech at Logansport, but did not say anything that is of special interest to the people of Indiana today. He refused to declare himself on the liquor question, so far as local option 1b concerned. The people of Indiana want to know where men stand when they accept the nomination for an office such as the governor of the great state of Indiana. On the evening before Mt. Marshall went to Logansport he had a conference with Crawford Fairbanks and other representatives of the brewery Interests at Indianapolis. Can It be that this le responsible for his silence on issues that are of grave Importance In this campaign? Do the people want a man for governor who is uncertain where he stands? Do (he people want a governor who is ruled by Crawford Fairbanks and hlB (Wends? Do the people want a man tor governor who looks to Tom Taggart tor his political advtoe? Mr, Marshall made a great mistake when he refused to express himself at Logansport He has sounded his own death-knell so far as political life Is concerned. On election day the people will express themselves. The people do not want a weakling tor governor of Indiana. A man who hasn’t a mind of his own and a man who ts afraid to speak should not be awarded the highest gift of the people of our great state. And We have confidence enough In the people to believe that they will not err this time.— Frankfort News.

MudsllngIng.

The- Hem Thomas R. Marshall announces early In the campaign that ao far as he ie concerned and that so far as his Influence goes there will be no mudellngtng In the Indiana campaign this time. It goes without saying that the Republioans will be glad to meet the Democrats even more than half way in this kind of campaign. The wisdom of Republican policies may well be compared to anything that has been offered by the opposition and the decision as to the matter left to the Intelligence of the voters. Republicans feel that they have nothing to lose and everything to gain from such a comparison. And even if the Democratic candidate for governor should fail to influence the managers of his party in the way that he hopes to do, he may depend upon it that the Republicans in any event will confine their campaign to the discussion of principles rather than persons, though on the whole they have no reason to object to a comparison of candidates. —Marion Chronicle.

Why the Brewers Are Satisfied.

The Democratic state platform pledges its party to a policy which will leave the saloon in many cities against the will of a majority of the voters of those cities. That is what local option by city wards means. Under such a law a city might cast an overwhelming vote against saloons, but if one ward should vote wet, -the saloons would remain. That is why the brewers are satisfied with that plank and opposed to the county local option plank of the Republican platform. —Montlcello Herald. Thomas R. Marshall, Democratic nominee for governor, says he expects to conduct a dignified campaign, free from mud-slinging. That is well and good. The trouble with some fellows is that when the truth is told they try te get out from undor by calling it "mud-sllnging.” It is to be ho pod that the campaign will he dean and dignified, hut that does not mean that lbs truth will he suppressed.
