LOG CABIN LOGIC-
Brawn and Brain!
The powerful engine, with its woa
derful propelling power, coupled t
the long train full freighted with thi
richest fabrics of the intellectna'
looms of the centuries what obstacle)
can stay the progress of this mightj
force, when once under- full stean
along life's highway.
The American with brawn ant
brain does not see the necessity fot
titles of nobility, does not care foi
elevation by descent, he can reach
out and pluck the stars.
But with brawn and brain inv
paired, a man is badly handicapped
in the mad race for success whicli ia
the marked characteristic of tha
present age.
The physiciat system is a most ini
tricate piece of machinery. It ought
to be kept well regulated, so that it
will 'work harmoniously in all its
parts, then it is capable of an im
mense amount of work.
It is said that a watch, if expected
to keep perfect time, must be wound
daily. It will not keep good time un
less it "runs regular." More men
break down because they don't "run
regular" than for any other reason.
It is claimed by physicians that
few men are killed by hard work. It
is to the irregularities of modern
social life that the high death rate is
due. Men burn their candle at both
ends, then wonder why it burns out
60 quickly.
The main thing in keeping the
human machine in good working
order is to keep the regulator all
right. "The blood is the life," and
sound health is assured bo long as
the blood flows through the vein3 a
limpid stream of purity.
Regulate the regulator with War
ner's Log Cabin sarsaparilla, the old
fashioned blood purifier, prepared
after the best formula in use by our
ancestors in good old Log Cabin days,
and with the vigor of brawn and
brain which must ensue, in your
life's lexicon you will find no such
word as fail.
The silver dollars nojv stored in
the nexv silver vault of the treas

tons and amount to $23,3000,000.
They all came from Philadelphia
and New Orleans. Over four
times this amount is to be stored
in the vault.
CABELE34 MOTHERS.
Many mothers have permitted their
chidren to die before their eyes when
they might hae been saed. Any
mother who keeps house without a bot
tle of Acker's English Baby Soother at
hand, runs a risk which she may some
time regret. It has saved the lives of
thousands of children, and is doing so
every j ear. J. W. Conn, DruggUt.

WHAT THEY THINK.
Opinions of Some Eastern Editors.
Boston, Oct. 28. This morn
ing the Globe prints six columns
of editorial interviews, as gathered
from queries sent to editors in
various parts of the country. The
query was: "Please send to the
Boston Globe your opinion, con
cisely stated, of the political out
took in your state and the country
at large." Some of the most inter
esting replies are as follews:
Chester S. Lord, manager of the
New York Sun, Says: "I think
the election in New York will be
very close, but that, the chances
favor Harrison carrying it by about
7,000 plurality. Connecticut acts
as though it would give a Ke
publican plurality."
The New York Times, World
and Staats-Zeitung claim the state
will go Democratic, with a plural
ity of between 10,000 and 20,000,
but differ woefully on the stale
ticket.
The Brooklyn Eagle modestly
claims that New Yorlr, Connecti
cut, New Jersey, Indiana, Michi
gan and California are going Dem
ocratic, and believes also that
there is a chance of capturing
"Wisconsin and New Hampshire.
Twelve Republican papers in
Albany, Buffalo and Rochester
claim the state for Harrison by
10,000 to 15,000, with Miller
(Rep.) for governor a little be
hind. The Evening Post of New York
says the state is too uncertain to
offer any prediction.
Col. Sheppard's ilfcj7 and Ex
press says: ".Harrison will carry
every northern state, and possibly
one or two of the south. Mjlls
will be defeated at home, and he
Republicans may carry New York
city."
CONNKCTICUT OPINIONS.
In Connecticut the Republicans
are sanguine. The Democrats
fight shy- of the tariff issues, and
put tbeir trust in the prohibition
vote. The New London Telegraph,
the New Haven -liegister, Hart
ford Times and "vVaferbury Amer
icvn, all administration papers,
claim the state for Cleveland by a
deflection in the Republican rauks
to the prohibitionists, but concede
the state to the Republicans.
The Hartford Courant, leading
Republican paper, claims 5,000
plurality for Harrison, on the
strength of tlre Irish and protec
tionist vote.
In Michigan Democratic jour
nals headed by the Detroit Free
Press, do not claim anything ex
cept a reduced Republican vote,
but hope a great deal. Six Re
publican journals estimate Harri
son's majority in the state as 10,
000. In Indiana both sides are confi
dent. The Indianapolis Journal
and Sentinel figure out the same
majority lor Dotn sittes. ah ac
knowledge that Harrison's resi
dence in the state gives him a
great advantage.
In New Jersey the Republicans
are doubtful and the Democrats
confident. The tariff in lost sight
of in the fight over local issacs
and a hope iu the prohibition vote.
The Trenton Gazette frankly ac
knowledges that local issues have
jeopardized Republican chances,
and the state is very uncertain.
The Newark iVcic's, Paterson
Guardian and five other Demo
cratic papers say it is impossible
to predict Democratic plurality,
but they, feel that the state is cer
tain for Cleveland by a small ma
jority. The Newark Advertiser
claims the United States senator-
ship for the Republicans and says"
Harrison's chances are good for a
small majority.
WEST AND SOUTH.
In San Francisco Democratic
newspapers say the state will give,
a plorality of 5,000 for Cleveland,
but Republican papers say the
state is good for 10,000 majority
for Harnson.-
In Virginia the -Democrats, ac
cording to the Richmond Whig,
hope for a majority of less than
5,000, while the Republicans are
hopeful.
In West Virginia the Wheeling
liegister claims the state for Cleve
land by only 1,000 plurality, and
says there are but little hopes of
the Democrats carrying the legis
lature, which means Republican
senator the effect of the tariff
discussion among the coal miners.
Republican journals claim the
state by 2,000.
Victor'Lawson, of the Chicago
Neics, says all the western states
are for Harrison, and the Repub
licans will carry New York, Con
necticut, and Indiana, but lose
New Jersey. They may select a
Democratic governor in Illinois,
but the state will go for Harrison
by over 5.000T
Banning a Big Steamer.
The steamer City of
York carries a crew of
hundred and ninety-four
New
three
men.
What such a crowd of men can
find to do on a small structure like
a steamship is a mystery to the
landsman, isut of these four hun
dred men thirty-eight are sailors,
who manage the rigging and sails,
auxiliary to the steam power, and
in case of accident taking:, its
place. Then there are twenty
eight engineers, a day force and
a nignt ioroe. a. torce ot one
hundred firemen and stokers. feed
the great boilers that drive the
mammoth engines and the stew
ard has one hundred and forty-
six people in his command to look
after the wants of the passengers
and crew. Among these are
counted four bakers, three butch
ers and sixteen cooks, not to speak
of waiters, cabin boys and stew
ardesses. In fact a ship like the
City of New York is a city in
itself, and has every requisite from
barber to chaplain to make its
passengers, comfortable.
Children
Often need some safe cathartic and fon
icslckness, or to relieve colic, headache,
sick btomach, indigestion, dysentery and
the complaints mcidentar to chidhood.
Let the children take Simmons Liver
Regulator and keep well. It is purely
vegetable, not unpleasant to the- taste
and safe to take alone or in connection
with other medicine.
A New York civil engineer has
applied for a patent for a locomo
tive and tender, by which he
claims he can make ninety-five
miles an hour with ten coaches.
Catarrh Cured,
A clergyman, after yearaof suffer
ing from that loathsome disease, Ca
tarrh, andvainly trying every known
remedy, at last found a recipe which
completely cured and saved him from
death. Any sufferer from this dread
ful disease sending a self addressed
stamped envelopo to Prof. J. A. Law
rence, 88 Warren St., New York City,
will receive the recipe free of charge.
In 1870 "it cost to transport a
barrel of flour from Chicago to
New York 1.G0. By the year
1880 this charge was reduced to
87 cents.
