prosperity to-day than any people on
the face of the earth, and that too
under a Republican administration
No, Jeems Henry, we are uot prepar-
ed for any radical changes yet, such
as would follow a democratic victory.

The country, lfstening to the sweet
music of humming spindles and re-
volving wheels, to the plow-boy's con-
tented song and merry whistle, gaz-
ing ou the happy and smiling faces of
its satislied masses, will recall that
all its prosperity during the last forty
years has been under a Republican
administration, and that all its finan-
cial, industrial aud commercial dis-
tress and suffering have been under
Democratic rule. These are facts
that cannot be refuted.

who hails from Illinois and we hope
others may follow.

It is with pleasure that I give you
this unsolicited testimonial. About a
year ago when I had a severs case of
measles I got caught out in a hard
rain and the measles settled in my
stomach and bowels. I had an awful
time and htftl it not been for the use
of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea remedy 1 could not have pos
sibly lived but a few hours longer, but
thanks to this remedy I am now strong
and well. I have written the above
through simple gratitude and I shall
always speak a good word for this
remedy.—Sam H. Gwin, Concord, Ga.
