POLITICIANS MAY NOT KNOW Hi' BUT THE BUSINESS PEOPLE DO Wallace Thus Explains His Big Vote for Nomination of Sheriff. Although most people thought the remarkable rax;e of H. M. Wallace against Tom Word for the Democratic nomination for sheriff was the big sur prise of the county election. Mr. Wal lace himself sees nothing In It to orouse wonder. "I have been the outside man for a number of Portland banks for the past 10 years," he said this morning, "and although perhaps I am not known among politicians, I have a very large acquaintance among the business men of the city. "For some time I was connected with the Citizens bank on the east side and through this connection I was enabled to meet and know well fully 90 per cent of the east side business men. know 50 per cent of the west side bus iness men. This acquaintance is re sponsible for the large vote I received in the primary. "I was urged by friends to run for the office and I paid every cent of the campaign expenses myself. I person ally circulated my own petition, and distributed my own cards. If I had been able to afford more publicity I feel that 1 would have lceived a much larger- vote than I did." Mr. "Wallace is now with Hart man & Thompson, having taken leave of ab sence for the campaign. He denies re ports to the effect that he waa brought into the race by either. Tom Word or his opponents. "I never met Mr. Word until yesterday,") said Mr. Wallace, "and then 1 was introduced by friend. Any report that I was put into the race by the sheriff to keep out a stronger candidate is false, as is also the report that I was put Into the race by opponents of the sheriff who paid my expenses.

I slept very badly and was, in consequence, almost a physical wreck. I had a feel ing of depression often, and would imagine something dreadful was going to happen and my nerves were com pletely unstrung. I hve been grow ing gradually worse all the time, and nothing I tried helped : me until I be gan taking Plant Juice. I had only taken part of one bottle when I began to feel relief. I have now used three bottles and the pain has all left my arms and shoulders, my nerves are so much better and I sleep well at night and feel rested when I get up in the mornings. My appetite is good and I can eat anything I want without dis tress afterwards. I sun glad to tell anyone what Plant Juice has done for me if it will help them to the same re lief."

Stop or prevent them by the use of a proper antacid, such as bifturated magnesia, which can be ob tained from any drugRlst and thus en able the stomach to do its work prop erly wijhout being hindered by poison ous gas and dangerous acids.
