Origin of Mugwump.
A couple of poUticlans argued th<
other day over the origin and meaning
of the term mugwump. The first said:
“The word was first used in the cam
paign of 1884. It was applied to the
Republicans who repudiated Blaine to
vote for Cleveland. It Is a word from
the language of the Algonquin Indians,
and it means 'a big chief,’ ‘a person
of great importance.’ The mugwumps,
you know, all think themselves of the
greatest importance." The other poli
tician said: "Mugwump is a slang
word of the South. It no more derives
from the Alganquln Indians than you
do. A mugwump in the South Is a
bullfrog in its intermediate stage from
the tadpole inward. It Is, in other
words, a nondescript, a creature that
Is neither one thing nor the other."
"The second derivation seems to lie
the more plausible,” said a third poll
ticlan. “I’m sure I’d like to know posi
tive which of the two is correct”—

Is from the usually rainy quarter. In
one experiment I made the barometric
conditions were quit» unfavorable, yet
I produced rain. Th» gas. you see,
cause» lu the different strata of the
atmosphere a vacuum. This vacuum
Is the center of a heat storm and Is
filled by dense clouds that contain
rain. These clouds com» down with
the gravity of the earth, when the
rain descends.
“The rain Is different from ordinary
rain found In districts In which experi
ments have been made. It Is tropical
' rain, coming from the very lofty re
glons, being alight at first, and then
later descending In heavy showers
and bucketfuls. My operations have
been conducted In an Incloaure twelve
feet by eight. Though I cannot, of
course, give away tny secret, I may
tell you that the chemicals have to
to
be changed In accordance with the
couditlons.”

"My mother was troubled with
consumption for many year, A
last she was given up to die Th/«
she tried Ayer's Cherry P«ctoral
and was speedily cured?'

No matter how hard
your cough or how long
you have had it, Ayer’s
Cherry Pectoral is the
best thing you can take.
It’s too risky to wait
until you have consump
tion. If you arc coughing
today, get a botthe of
Cherry Pectoral at once.
