The Republ County Committee com- pleted its labors last evening, and pas up & ticket toat will meet with the bearty in- dorsement of all good citizens. It will be observed on scanning the names that they are of men fresh from the plain people and in thorough accord with them. The session was harmonious, the only ripple being & protest against the selection ottwo or three of the county committee- men, but that matter was straightened out to the satisfaction of ail. e THE PROCEEDINGS. No Chances to Be Taken on the Declislon of the Supreme Court. The convention was called to order by Chairman Riordan A supplemental report was- received from the committee on organization and order of business, recommending that, in view of the uncertainty attending the out- come in the case of Kahu vs. Adolph Sutro et al., the convention should vro- ceed to the nomination of candidates for the offices of District Attorney, County Clerk, Recorder, Coroner, Sheriff and Pub- lic Administrator; also tbat the County Committee shall consist of three from each Assembly district, instead of two, and that there shall be one member at large. The report was adonted. The follow: resolution was mously adopted : unani- Resolved, That when this convention ad- journs at the close of its final business it &ballstand 1 subject to the call of the by empowered to recon- vene it if deemed necessary. A motion to the effect thateach nomi- nee 1o the office of School Director be re- quired to_deposit $10 calied forth a con- fused hubbub of voices. On being put to &vote a quavering concert of ayes and a }nundexing chorus of noes decided its ate. Nominations for the position of District Attorney were declared in order. J. Aiva Watt took the stage to offer a resclution, which was as follows: Resolved, That tne Republican Municipal, Legislative, Judicial and Educational Conven’ tion of 1896 hereby expresses to the Hon. Thomas D. Riordan its cordial appreciation of the masterly ab absolute impartiality and unvarying courtesy displayed by him in the discharge of his patriotic duty as chairman of this convention. We recognize in him an , ardent and devoted champion ical rights, and with great pieasure we recommend his appointment by this e vention as & delegate at large to the Repub- lican County Commiitee of the City end County of San Franeisco, State of Califoraia. The resolution was adopted unani- mously with cheers and a tiger. Chairman Riordan thanked the conven- tion, and said that he would accord to al members of the convention equal rights, equal privileges and an equal amount of courtesv. A’ 'resolution was introduced constitu- ting the County Committee of three mem- bers from each Assembly district, naming the members by distriets, and also provid- ing for the election of a delegate at large, and naming Thomas D. Riordan as dele- gate at large. Some protest was made when the list of members by districts were read in the Twenty-eighth and Thirty-second dis- tricts. General Salomon also demanded to know by what authority the third mem- ber by districts bad been named. Several delegates were on their feet at once, and during this period Martin Ste- vens withdrew his resolution. A motion to adjourn for ten minutes was lost. The nomination of District Attorney was declared to be next in order. Martin Stevens took the stage and placed in nomination for District Attor. ney, W. 8. Barnes; for County Clerk, C. F. Curry; for Coroner, Dr. Hawkins—the incumbents of these offices. e said that he did this in accordance with custom. These are all Republicans. The nominations for the three offices named were aeclared closed, and the can- diiates were nominated by acclamation. The candidates not taking tha stage, a woice from the gallery shouted: *“Why do you not have them come forward and in- dorse the platform 2’ “The convention,” said Chairman Rior- dian, “will transact its business without the aid of the galleries,” The nomination for Sheriff was then made. General Salomon mounted the platform #nd said: Mr. Chsirman and Gentlemen of the Con- yention: I have the honor in placing in nom- ination for the office of Sheriff a gentleman well known to you all. He filled the oflice of County Clerk with singular ability and to the eatisfaction of the public, turning over his papers, his books and his office in the very vest order to his successor, and when I say to you that my nominee is William J. Blattner I Deed say no more. Delegate Durst seconded the nomina- tion with the remark that Mr. Blattner was a fighter and a veteran; that his fight would be for the Democrats a Wa 100, and that its issue would be a Rep®- lican triumph. There were no other rominations and Blattner was nnani- mousiy nominated by acclamation. The nomindtion for County Recorder was passed and nominations for members of the Board of Supervisors were taken up. General Salomon nomimated John Hayes to the office of Supervisor from the: First Ward. In a few words he gave a sketeh of the provosed nominee's honor- able careér as an officer in the Harbor police. The nomination was made by acclamation. Frank H. Powers proposed D. M. West- enberger as Bupervisor from the Second Ward, who was forthwith nominated by acclamation. General Salomon nowminated for Super- visor of the Third Ward John L. Hanly, and said that bhe is a laboring man and that he would be an honor to the board. There were several seconds from the floor, The nomination was ratified unanimously. Mr. Powers then nominated as Super- visor from the Fourth Ward Joseph Stefl‘ans, ‘who was also nominated by accla- mation. H. C. Firebaugh seconded the nomina- M. J. WELCH, Regular Republican Candidate for Senator in the Twenty-Third District. For Supervisor for the Fifth Ward Frank H. Powers nominated Thomas A. Q. Walkington, a warehouse man, a mem- ber of the Produce Exchange and a prom- inent business man, who would ada strength to the ticket. The nomination was made unanimous by acclamation. As Supervisor from the Sixth Ward Thomas H. Durst proposed John Lach- man, who he said had come to this coast and prospered with its prosperity, a man of the people who would do his duty. The nomination was acclaimed with much cheering. tion of Steffens. mously ratified, James H. Daly was proposed by T. F. Bryant as Supervisor from the Seventh Ward. The same procedure was followed as in the preceding nominations, For Supervisor from the Eightnh Ward Thomas Morton was named and also Thomas Desmond, the last named being nominated by R. Ringrose. The roll was The convention unani- called, with the following result: Morton 188, Desmond 34. | During the rollcall General Salomon announced the vote of the Thirty-sixtn District a5 16 to 1, 16 for Morton and 1 for Desmond. The Thirty-eighth District had a rollcall which developed that the delega- tion was solia for Morton. For the Ninth Ward Richard J. Heil mann was nominated as owner and taxpayer, a native son, and last but not least among his qualifications, the fatber of nine children.” For sSuperyisor from the Tenth Ward the name of Edward J. Smith was pro- posed by Frederick Elliott as being one who represented more taxpayers, church members, property-owners and good fel- lows than most men, He was nominated by acclamation amid much applause. Frank Powers nominated as SBupervisor from the Eleventh Ward Charles M. De- pew. Mr. Powers paid a compliment to Supervisor Hobbs and then said that Depew, whom_he named, was the presi- dent of the Millers’ Association and a member of the Builders’ Exchange, Judge Denson seconded the nomination of De- pew. which was made vnanimous. Edward Eigeltinger was provosed for nomination 10 the post of Supervisor from the Twelfth Ward and nominated by acclamation. The nominees for the Board of Super- visors took the stage in a body and formed a line jacing the audience. "While standing here they were repeatedly cheered. Chairman Riordan introduced them and then said in their behaii that they assured him that they indorsed every plank in the platform. The candi- dates then retired. Mr. Durst reintroduced the resolution naming the County Committee, with Thomas D. Riorlan as member-at-large and three members from each Assembly district, all of whom were named, pre- facing the reading with brief explanatory remarks. ‘When Mr. Durst had finished reading he moved the adoption of the resolution. BSeveral delegaies were on their feet to speak, but the previous motion was called. The motion was declared to be carried and the report was also declared adopted on a viva voce vote. Robert Ash, chairman of the committee of ten on the nomination ot the Board of School Directors, made a report, naming the following candidates: Dr. Soper, Dr. E. H. Mattner, E. L. Head, W. T, Kibbler, J. L. Halsteas Philip Hammond, William Powers, W liam A. Kemp, Dr. Drucker, F. L. Tarpin, George A. Kobn and C. E. Fredericks. The adoption of the report of the com- mittes of ten coming before the commit- tee, Frank H. Powers moved that the name of Thomas R. Kuox be substi. tuted for the name of Camp. The point oi order was taken that the report of the committee could not be amended and the chair ruled this to be well taken, The convention refused to amend the report, and then adopted the report unanimously and unanimousiy nominated the candidates named in the report. W. H. Schooler of the Forty-first Dis- | trict said that in the adoption of the reso- lution naming the County Committee some dissatisfaction had been caused in that district. The delegation had agreed on George H. Walker as the third mem- ber of the committee from that district. E. J. Casey resigned, and Walker was named as the man. Henry Jacobs of ths Thirty-ninth Dis- trict offered his resignation as & member of the County Committee. The conven- tion promptly voted to lay his resignation on the table. Nominations for the postsof Recorder and Public Administrator were then called for. E. A. Lutzgen was proposed for the first-named position and Sylvester Shaben for the latter, the nominations in both cases belng made unanimous. Treasurer Widber was nominated for the unexpired term in his present office by acclamation, as were also Dr. Soper and Director Knox for the unexpired terms on the Board of Education. The County Committee was authorized to fill any vacancies which may occur on the ticket after the adjourcment of the convention. The chair was authorized to appoint the purity committee. The nominations for Senators and As- semblymen were announced from the different districts. The list appears at the head of this column. Chairman Riordan named as members of the purity committee the following: J. A, att, Frank Powers, Maurice i Asher, H. W. Fraser and 8. C. Denson. The nominations and appointments all having been made a motion to adjourn made, but the chair said that there was business yet to come up. He then described what had happened at a con- ference where a proposition was submitted by the Kullerhunny faction. The Kelly - Mahoney faction wanted nothing lessthan the destruction of this would commend itself to the judgment of any honest and sensible man. “‘We said,” added My, Riordan, “that we desired harmony, but we could rot en- tertein any proposition on the basis of turning over the Republican party to Kelly | and Mahoney. 5 | The Repuolican party has had enough of their leadership in the past. The facts have been set forth in a written communi- cation to the State Central Committee, which sets forth that the legality of the County Committee has never been ques- tioned by any one inthe City and County excepting Kelly and Mahoney. “We have rights,” said Chairman Riordan in conclusion, “and Wwe intend to maintain them.” Henry C. Dibble made a brief but stir- ring speech in favor of huqony and union. Police Judge Campbell, who was cheered repeatedly, also spoke to the same effect, pledging himself to do his duty in the event of his re-election. { John T. Dare followed in a similar strain, after which the convention ad- journed, with cheers for its nominees and 1or Chairman Riordan and for McKinley. Tt A BEAUTIFUL BANNER. A Home-Made Product for the Re- publican State Central Com- mittee. | The Union League Club has presented tothe Republican State Central Commit- the a beautiful banner, which was sus- pended across Market street, opposite the | Palace Hotel, yesterday, The work is | home-made, the artist being M. Stein, and the portraits have been pronounced by compvetent judges to be works of art. The motto on the banner is peculiarly havpy and appropriate, being *‘The Re- publican party stands for honest money and the chance to earn it.” A large crowd witnessed the hanging of the banner and gave three cheers when it went u Itis a credit to the club, and is highly appreciated by the Republican Committee.

The total vote amounted to 423, and of this McKinley re- ceived 248 votes to Bryan’s 175. A number of such votes have been taken recently on the trains and the results appear o be about the same. BENT ON DESTRUCTION Kelly and Mahoney Refuse to Let tie Republican Party Alone. The Executive Committee of the Stafe Central Committee Will Sottle the Matter. Efforts to induce Martin Kelly to desist from his purpose to defeat the Republican ticket in this City were resuined yesterday afternoon at 12:30 o’clock in the rooms of the Republican State Central Committee. Mr. Kelly refused to keep off his hands and Major McLaughlin donounced that he would lay the matter before the execu- tive committee of the State Central Com= mittee at a meeting to be held by them to- morrow afternoon at 2 o’clock, when they would take what action they should deem proper for the best interest of the party. There were present yesterday Chairman McLaunghlin of the Republican State Cen- tral Committee, H. P, Sonntag, J. H. Ma- honey, Martin Kelly and A. Ruef for the disorganizers and T. D. Riordan, John Chretien, Martin Stevens and J. Alva Z’Vut for the Republican County Conven- on. Mr. Riordan read a_written statement setting forth that the Republican County Convention had been organized legally, from the proper authority, and in accord- ance with the established usage of the Republican and every other party for the past thirty yeurs. He called upon Martin Kelly and Beuator Mahoney to abandon their filibustering schemes and march abreast with the Republican party to which they were supposed to belong. This proposition was rejected, and Mr, Riordan declined to waste any more time on the matter. A letter, of which the following is a copy, was sent to the State Central Com- mittee rooms yesterday afternoon: 430 CALIFORNIA STREET, Bsut M% c“ii :’“?mm 25, 1896. on.

FOR SCHOOL DIRECTORS Additional Nominees of the Citi- zens' Independent Con- vention. More Candidates for Senators, Super- visors and Assemblymen Announced. The Citizens' Independent Convention settled down last evening to business im- mediately after Chairman Fitch rapped for order. The fascination attending politics to the majority of men, but more particularly to the beginners, was so great that very few of the delegates remained away. This was made manifest to such a marked degree that the chief bolters of the convention on the night of its organ- ization had returned repentant and sub- missive, and all joined in examining the subjects presented by the committee which had been deputized to select suita- ble waterial for the remamder of the Su- rvisors and the full board of School irectors. The convention gave the result to the members of the press, who were not per~ mitted to enter the convention hall. . The following were declared the nom- nees: Schoal Directors—H. C. Henderson, J. H. Gray, J. F. Crossett, J. D. Scott, Wallace Bradford, Dr. W. D. Clark, J. H. Wiley, C.J. King, B. E. Meyer, 8. H. Dutton, G. L. Halstadt. . Ratto: Second, Swervhon—l—‘irsv, Ward, D. W.

Princess Lovis of Bavaria, who is re- garded by the English Jacobites as the de jure Queen of Great Britain, being the last lineal descendant of the Stuarts, is re- markable forthe homeliness of her appear- ance, the size of her family and the dis- agreeable nature of her character, She has no less than fourteen children, and her three eldest boys have each of them dis- tinguished themselves by running away from nome on accovnt of the harshness of parental treatment and the ridiculous smaliness of the monetary allowance ac- corded to them. Thus at the time when Prince Charles, the second son, bolted a couple of years ago to Hamburg, with the intention of shipping as a sailor before the mast, the fact brought to light ihat, although he was more than 19 years of age and an officer of one of the crack regimentsat Munich, e was restricted by his father and mother to $2 a week pocket money. Princess Louis has never yet given any sign of acceptance of the aliegiance offered to her by those ultra legitimists of Great Britain who style themselves members of the Order of the White Rose, and who use a postage stamp with her portrait on their letters. (This stamp not being niged by the postal union has to be supple- mented, of course, by an ordinary stamp placed alongside.) She is provably content with the knowl- edge that she is destin+d in course of time to become Queen of Baveria, a8 kingdom in which she already occupies the position of first lady, for the present King is under restraint as an incurable lunatic, and her fatner-in-law, who rules the country as Regent, is an aged man, well on toward the eighties. er husband, who has re- cently attracted much public attention by the sensational speech which he delivered at Moscow, declaring that the princes of the confederation known as the German empire were not vassals of the Emperor, buu allies of the King of Prussia an his equal in rank, is a middle-sized, heavy-reatured man, with a long, black beard and small, stern eyes. He is famous for his knowledge of entomology, and may be described as the leading bug- hunter in Germany. Deeply versed in the habits of ants, beetles, bees, wasps, flies, earwigs and even of that diminutive game which Mark Twain so graphically de- scribes as chamois, no insect that is con- genitally addicted to flying, crawling or wriggling is unfamiliar to Bavaria's fu- tawe King. He is as bigoted a Catholic as his wite, who shares his horror of Em- peror William’s nfgnum Protestantism, and the couple lose no opportunity of publicly showing to what extent they re- gard tve Hohenzollern and the entire court of Berlin as parvenus.—New York ‘I'ribune. —————————— Gibraltar's Importance to England. Gibraltar, about 1000 miles from Eng- land. is of 1mmense importance as being the great watch-tower from which the movements of warships can be observed and telegraphed as they pass into and out of the Mediterranean Sea. Moreover, situ- ated as it is near the flank of our trade routes both to the cape ana the West In- dies and South America, it is the point at which vessels would naturally call for news, orders, coal and protection during the continuance of a war. When you consider that in every second ~of time twenty tons of shipping go out or come into our home poru{ and that, as a matter of fact, the stream is continu- ous and never ceases, and that the value of the sea-borne trade of the British empire is calculated at £930,000,000, of which about £250,000,000 neither comes to nor goes from the United Ki m, it seems difficult to exaggerate the value of the fortress of Gibraltar or to realize the con- gestion of British shipping which might seek its protection in _war. It has at present no drydocks. Its garrison con- sists of eeven companies of artillery, four companies of engineers and three com- panies of infantry. It is_the meeting- place of our channel and Mediterranean squadrons. The roads do not afford safe anchorage in all winds, and an enemy could hsml:'uinbly shell aihcn if he moun: ea; on Bpanish soil.

MILE N 208 O STOCKTON TRACK Del Norte's Fast Time in the '2:10 Class Pac- ing Event. LOUPE AGAIN ASLEEP.| Surprising Reversal of Form Shown by the Equine Phenomenon. STELLA SHOWS HER HEELS, Wins Two Heats of the 2:22 Trotting Race—All Bets on the Sprint Declared Off. STOCKTON, CArn, Sept. 26.—The race meet was brought to a close to-day with another track record broken, the black horse Del Norte reeling off the first heat of the 2:10 pace in 2:08. The attendance was not as large as on Friday, but the betting was quite as heavy. The track wasina fairly good condition and the weather de- lightful for the lemonade venders. Mec- Neir was in good form, starting the fields in a manner that delighted the crowd. Welcome, driven by Andy McDowell, carried off first honors in the 2:10 pace; Stella earned for her owner the best por- tion of the purse offered for the 2:22-class trotters, and Howard won the running dash. The unfinished pace from Friday was gathered in by Eelle, which took the deciding heat from Prince Nutwood in 2:13. Uncanny whisperings were whisked about by the breezesduring the progressof the pace, and 1f all that is heard can be believed, Loupe could take a sympathizer down to one of the end stalls at the track to-night and in the silent language of the horse, unfold a yarn that would be food for the gossips about the race course for some days. An early switch in the betting 'was the first indication that there might be “something doin’.” Loup at first sold favorite, but as the bell tapped the five “'wigglers” out, Welcome was first in the demand at $30, with Loupe going to the form players at $17 and the field fetching $5. In the first heat, Durfee, 2behind Del Norte, made the pace, and the black went the half like a ghost in 1:04, with Welcome about two lengths away. Loupe at this stage, driven by Sullivan, could only be reached by the leaders through telephone connection. At the head of the stretch Del Norte maintained his advantage, and led Welcome out by a couple of lengths in ao‘g.d Boy Wood finished in the suburbs A trifle like this did not.bother the Wel- come folks, for he was strong in the pools, selling for $20, Loupe $0 and the field §6. In the next heat Welcome and Del Norte did the glad- and act to the stretch, pac- ing head and head. Loupe then carme along and won the heat easily from Wel- come in 2:0814. 3 ‘Then the market was glutted with fish. Loupe sold for $20, Welcome $10 and the fleldp. $3. The third heat was another screw in the coffin of the harness horse. At the first turn Loupe broke and contin- ued jumping up ard down, to the discom- fiture of his backers, for more than a fur- long. Welcome took the heat easily in 2:11}¢ from Hazel H, with Loupe getting the To the breaking of a thimble- strap was attriovted the downfall of Loupe. It is to be hoped this was the cause. X ‘Welcome had no difficulty in winning the next two heats in 2:13}, 2:1414. Because of a fine imposed eariier in the week McMannus did not hold the reins over Loupe, his place in the bike being taken by “Jimmy’’ Sullivan. The 2:22 trot was a somewhat mixed affair. It was decided under the heat- dash system. On the strength of his good race early in the week Conn was a pro- nounced cholce for the opening dash. Pools soid Conn §10, Clay 8 $3 and the field $3. Maud P led past the half, when Stella took the lead and_won the heat easily by two lengths from Leiter B in 2:1614. Stella was now a favorite for the second dash and she disposed of Faro Bank at the end very impressively, going the mile in 2:151. Faro Bank tickets for the place paid $21 70. 1t looked as though Stella would capture tbe third heat also, but a break l:stl before striking the stretch proved tal Letter B went to the front and reached the wire a length in advance of Faro k, with Mande P third. Time, 2:173. The dash winners now went to the stable, but four horses coming out for the eon-oafluon purse. What little betting was done favored Clay 8 slightly. Faro Bank had the best of the others most of the way, but was given 2 hard brush the last part by Maude P, winning by only a head in 2:21. The day’s l{ort was ended by a five- furlong scramble with a field ‘of nine hning up. It was a very open betting affair, but ended with poor gain for the wise ones. Quicksilver, a sprinter of the George F. Smith order, broke away in front, but received a zigzag sort of ride at the hands of his jockey and was nosed out by Howard in 1:0134. The juages did not l{ke the complexion of the race and declared all bets off, which proved s most popular decision. ‘acing; 2:10 clas heats. Welcome, McDows purse $800.

NEVADA CITY, Car., Sept. 26.—The five days’ racing at Glenbrook Park closed this afternoon, a large crowd of spectators being present to witness the sport. The meeting has been a successful one, and visitors to the fair grounds have, as'a rule, been weil satistied. To-day’s speed programme was one of the best a_t the week. The consolation race, seven-eighths of a mile, was the best of the meeting. ‘The five starters got in good form at lhofi:‘-:trhl :m n::h’xad bunched all the way round.

At the Imperial Hotel a banquet was given J. Otis Fellows, the judge, by the pench show committee. It was attended by all the dog fanciers here and by the representatives of the press. The show has proved the most successful affair ever undertaken by the directors of the Fair Association, —_— An Ancient Castle. Part of Dunvegan_Castie, Skye, the an- cestral home of the Mncleoau. dates from the ninth century and is believed to be the oldest inhabited house in the country— rivate residence, of course, we mean. 'he castleis a fine old pile, built on a promontory at the head of Loch Follart, and must have been a place of great strength in_the days when the Macleods and McDonalds were at con- stant warfare. One of its cherished treas- ures is the fairy flag, the palladium of the house of Macleod. Legend invests it with marvelous qualities. Three times only, nowever, could the virtues of the flag be utilized. Twice, we are toid, it has been unfurled with magical results. Its last re- serve of power mast only be employed if the clan l.l ‘ever on the verge of utter ex- tinction,” and of such a calamity the con- gx:t;;ncy seems far removed.—London So- Look Bharply to the condition of your health at :‘yl:hu:lm for peculiar perils assail the Hood’s _..Sarsaparila Hood’s Pills 5735 mm dimse te "MICROBE - KILLER. How the Antiseptic Gases of This New Drink for the Sick Porvade the Entire Human Anatomy and Become zan Absolute Antidote to the Animal-Germ Principle of All Human Disease. ICROBE KILLER, WHICH HAS created such a sensation as a curative throughout the whole civilized world, comes in the form of a tart, palatable and refreshing watsr drink, charged with medicinal gases of a higher degree of energy in the desiwnction of animal-germ life—or the seed yrinciple of all human disease—than any other remedy in the pharmacop®ia of mankind. Animal germs, or microbes, taken from the blood or tissues of those suffering from con- sumption or Bright's disease, cancer, la grippe, catarrh, ciphtheria or other mi- crobic disease, and placed under the light- est touch or faintest spray of Radam’s Microbe Killer, lose motion and life as naturally and inevitably as a nest of black ants under a wash of prussic acid. Anex- periment with almost any form of human sickness proves that the same antiseptic principle—the penetrative gzases of Mi- crobe Killer—are as directly destructive to the microbes of disease when applied to them within the system, or éxternally upon its surfaces, as when applied to them within an earthen dish in the chemist's laboratory. Following are additional expressions from a few of those in our own midst who havedrunk theremedial water and realized its wonderful power over disease. The following extracts simply illustrate the feeling of those who have taken the greatest medicine ever discovered: Mr. M. Black, 528 Geary street, San Francisco: “I know it to be the best medicine for asthma ever discovered.” Mr. Freeman 8mith, Brentwood : *‘Cured me of liver, kidney and spleen troubles of many years’ standing.’’ Mr. F. Ludlam, Myrtle, Cal.: ‘“Hasen- tirely relieved my sister of her rheuma- tism."” - Mrs. C. A. Hammers, Selma, Cal.: “Cured me of cancer ot four years’ stande ing, after doctors had given me up.” Mrs. E. A. Robinson, Roseville, Cal: **Cured me of many troubles after baving been told that Icould notlivesix months.” 48-page vamphlet, with testimonials, mailed free on application to RADAM’S Nicrobe Killer (o., 18340 Market Street, San Franciseo, Cal.

The Prescription of a Great Remedy WHICH CURED HIM AFTER EVERY- THING ELSE FAILED, Painful digeases are bad enough, but when a man is slowly wasting away with nervous weal ness, the mental forebodings “are ten times wi than the most severe pain. There is no let up to the mental saftering day oF night. Sleep is almost impossible, and under such a strain men are scarcely reagonsible for'what they do. For years the writer rolled and tossed on the troubled sea of sexual weakness until It was s question whether he had not better take a dose of poison and thus end all his troubjes. But provisional inspiration came to his aid in the shape of & combination of medicines that not ouly completely restored his general health, but enlarged bis weak, emaciated parts to natural size and vigor, and he now de- clares that any man who will take the trouble to send his name and address may have the pre- scription of this wonderful remedy free. Now when I say free I mean absolutely without cost, because I want_every weanened man to get thé benefit of my experiénce. Iam not a philanthropist, nor do I pose asan enthusiast, but there are thousands of men sufter- ing the mentul tortures of weakened manhood who would be cured at once could they but get su ha Temedy as the one that cured me. Send me your name and adiress to-day. Do not try to study out how Ican efford to pay the few postage stamps necessary to mail the perscription, but send for the remedy and learn that there are a few things on earti that although they cost nothing to get they are worth a fortune to some men and mean a lifetime of pluess to most Of ns. Write to Thomas Sl box 2288, Kalamasoo, Mich., and the prescription will be malied ina plain sealed envelope. EL CREAM BALM is itive cure. Apply into the. n':mua.
