Have we an agent and correspondent in your community? ee We do not encourage anyone to jump from a not too hot frying pan into the fire. Therefore, we cannot counsel our people tofollowin the po- litical footsteps of so able a man of the race as Attorney A. M. ‘Thomas, of Buffalo, whose “flop” is explained at length by him in the Buffalo letter upon our first page to-day. Cannen, Gatling guns and red shirts are playing the most conspicu- ous parts in the North Carolina cam- paign. There is no doubt of the democrats “electing” their ticket this time. This fall they will rob the country of presidential electors and congressmen, by the same lawless methods, and the government will permit it. Nothing will be done to anger the white south, even if a thou- sand Negroes are killed. ‘The lives of our people do not seem to be as sa. ered and as dear as the partial favor ot the democratic white south. Re- member the government is in the hands of members of oar party; men we have helped to elevate to the high office they hold. The editor of this paper has never said that “Senator Hanna gave a sep- arate dinner to the notification com- mittee,” nor did he send a friend of his to Mr. Hurst for a ticket of any kind. The Washington Bee, in mak- ing such statements, but maintains the reputation it has held for years. Along the same line is the three col- umns of rot signed by its editor, pub- lished on the first page of that paper ‘on July 28. Continuing, The Bee said: “The Z club is managed by the genial Charles Black. This is the headquar- ters of the colored politicians. Mr. Black is a wide-awake man and hard to guess.” This is libel on the “col- ered politicians” of Cleveland. ‘The so-called “Z” club is a combination saloon, billiard parlor, barber shop and gambling house, which was raid- ed by our police one night last week (and at divers other times) and about @ dozen werg arrested. We merely mention this as a sample of the mis- statements published by the editor of The Bee in his issue of a week ago. ‘We hope our readers will excuse us for paying this much attention to the individual or the paper in question. Neither are worthy of it. + Regardless of all statements to the contrary, a “Jim Crow” dinner was tendered the Afro-American members of the McKinley notification commit- tee and in the manner stated in a previous issue. Senator Hanna's man of color “was,” no doubt, “sent” to do this, as he was frequently “sent” to do many other things on the train en route to and from Canton, at Can- ton and in Cleveland. Messrs. Deas, Pledger, Hurst and Lee could unfold a harrowing, yet amusing tale anent the servile position taken and main- tained by this man of color when in the presence of the senator, Such individuals cannot be made leaders of Ohio Afro-Americans by Mr. Hanna, the president or any one else. “Jim Crow” Negroes can never lead intelli- gent people of out class, even though men high in the councils of the party would have it so. The alleged Negro editor who will condone such a situ- ation for the purpose of currying fa- vor, that a few paltry dollars may be gained from some republican execu- tive committee, is certainly not to be trusted, but should be pitied. One or two of this kind of cattle have devel- oped already—even before the cam- paign has opened—so hungry are they. The Ohio district grand lodge of G. U. 0. of O. F. convenes in Troy, Monday and Tuesday of next week, The outlook is good for the usual at- tendance. The report that the insur- ance feature is a failure will keep several lodges from being represent- ed. As stated some time ago in The Gazette, the insurance plan is of lit- tle consequence in Ohio, since each and every member can carry an in- surance for less money and with more beneficial results. The matter of taxation seems a question most in- teresting at this time. The legal tax- ation is six cents per capita, and has with one exception been suflicient, and this was caused by an increase of salaries, bestowing of medals amd issuing at the time of the Cincinnati, Nashville and AtlantaB. M. C. meet- ings 2,500 minutes, composed and re- corded in a most elaborate manner, for the purpose of getting the Ohio idea before that grand body. ‘Other administrations came along with less elaborateness, but more expenses,and the per capita tax was raised to 20 gents and bas continued so. There iex been vo minutes published for several yours, yet the tax has re- maind the sere. When asked why this continued assessment, some per- sons invariably placed the cause on some past administration, against the existence of facts and? figtres Proving the reverse. This question will be discussed and lodges will ex- pect their representatives to bring back some good excuse for the con- tinuance of the assessment. af North Carolina, with its red shirts, Alabama, with its lynching, and New Orleans, Lonisiana, with its mob, held the boards last week, giving a spec- tacular exhibition ef lawlessness al- most unparalleled. Not evén a word in condemnation of mob violence is heard from any of our government officials. The fact is, that nothing of the kind has materialized since the inception of the present administra- tion. It does look very much as if our highest officials are entirely’ too fearful of offending the white south. Negroes by the score were shot down in the streets of cities and towns of the south last week, in such numbers as to have attracted the attention of the officials not only of our govern. ment, but of the whole world. And still not a word from the president or others, We would sear this upon the minds of every one of our peopie if it were possible. The race’s vital interests, protection for life. liberty, and property, are of more interest to us than party interests. Let our ministers, teachers and leaders of all kinds impress this upon our people. While the democrats are parading the streets of the south, shooting down Negroes our republican govern- mental officials sit quietly by and do not even condemn such heathenish practices. Little better than the murderer is the official who stands quietly by, invested with the power and right to protect life, and yet per- mits the nefarious work to be done. Will our people ever awaken to a pro- per realization of this very thing? The North Carolina white man who had the temerity, last week, to ex- press himself as being opposed to the amendment disfranchising the Afro- Americans of that state, was severely thrashed, if not beaten to death by “red_ shirts,” who are democrats largely, with a sprinkling of republi- cans, who wish to eliminate the Ne- gro from North Carolina polities. And yet we boast of the freencss of this country, especially when it comes to the matter of speech. A dispatch to the New York Sun from New Orleans, dated July 24th, says that it was discovered that “Robert Charles was a race agitator, filled with the belief that he ought to resent the indignities inficted on his race by the whites, and that he had been distributing literature call- ing upon the crushed and trampled spirit of the blacks to assert itself.” If this is a fact, in the light of the outcome, the death of Charles, after having killed eight people and wounding a number of others, will have a greater tendency to encourage striking back upon the part of our people in that section when they are assaulted, than all the literature Charles could possibly have distribu. ted. If he were guilty of no crime and committed no offense, but simply did what the Sun’s correspondent charges him with doing, Charles has established a precedent in selling his life dearly, that will be the same as a guiding star to most of the brave black men of that section who, in the future, are hounded by prejudiced white hoodlums, ruffians and brutes. ‘The New Orleans mob demonstration could never have reached so serious a stage had the authorities of the city done their duty promptly, as they should have. ‘The evident inclination upon the part of the police was possi- bly natural under the cireumstances —that is, to permit an indiscriminate killing of our people, and but offered an additional reason why the mayor and other authorities should have acted much more promptly than they did. The mob was given too great leeway, too much time, and too many opportunities for organizing. It would rave been an easy matter to have prevented its collecting, if prop- er steps had been taken in time. This, of course, is realized to its fullest extent now by the officials of New Orleans, and there is little doubt but that they will avail themselves of the experience thus gained, should ocea- sion require again. Indeed, they have already started an investigation and have several policemen “on the rack,” charged with cowardice in connection with the attempts to arrest Charles and protect citizens attacked by the mob.

Brilliance, eloquence and gladness reigned at Sr. John’s church last Monday evening, the geeasion beiag a reception given by the church amd friends in honor of Bishop Arnett and wife. The bishop was returned to this diocese by the last general conference, and his retur is hailed with delight on all sides, if the wan- imity of expression offered at the reception is to be considered. The affair was pronounced by all who at- tended the finest affair of the kind ever given in the chureh, and will be long remembered in its history. The lecture room presented a scene of elegance and beauty, as well as the double parlors. Flowers, flags and draperies wre profuse and greatly augmented the pleasure of the ocea- sion, Refreshments were served in these rooms by the committees in charge of the entertainment. The programme was of a high order, be- ing in charge of Rev. Bundy, the pas- tor, and Alex. 0, Taylor. While the organ selection was being played the officers and members of the dif- ferent boards and departments of the church marched into the andi- torium in order and presenied a most pleasing scene. The scripture lesson was read by Rey. Alex. Moore, being followed by invocation by Rev. Lang- ford, of Cory M, E. church. The welcome address of Rey. Jackson, pastor of Mt. Zion Congregational cbureh, in behalf of the ministers of the city, and Rev, Combash, pastor ot the A.M. E. Zion church, in behalf of the churches, were splendid and well received. Frank Lee welcomed the bishop for the ehnreh—St. John’s. Hon. H.C. Smith welcomed the bishop in behalf of the citizens of Cleveland in a very eloquent manner. He denounced the New Orleans and North Carolina outrages in a force. ful and pathetic manner and referred to the bishop's good work when a leg- islator. Bishop Arnett responded in hig usual pleasing manner, and like the preceding speaker was repoated- ly interrupted with applause. ‘The musieal numbers were all thoroughly enjoyed. ‘The committees of recep- tion were composed of the stewardess and deaconess’ boards and the emer- gency committee, inéluding Mr. John Edwards, of the stewards’ board. ‘The following was the programme rendered: Organ, “Morceau Gothique”..Godard Alex. 0.

Fulton, Powhattan Henderson (whom Clifford succeeded when Hon. H. C. Smith secured him the place over 12 years ago), and two others. Charles Marshall, of the auditor's office, will be the next to "come out." The colored republican clubs, of Cleveland, O., have passed resolutions endorsing the record of Hon. Harry C. Smith in the Ohio legislature, and especially commending him for the passage of Ohio's civil rights and Ohio's anti-lynch laws. Legislator and Editor Smith is a pillar of strength to the race. He is a loyal race man. He is a true leader.—Washington (D. C.) Leader. The New Orleans, La., mortality, as the result of the recent Robert Charles mob, sums up 13 killed, eight whites (all killed by Charles) and five Negroes; 31 severely wounded, 13 whites and 18 Negroes, and 40 odd slightly wounded. All the wounded are likely to recover. The grand jury will go thoroughly into the riot and deal impartial justice to both whites and blacks. It is probable that all those whites who were prominent in organizing the riots which killed and wounded Negroes will be indicted, and the names of most of the leaders are known. Indictments will also be found against those Negroes who were in the house with Charles and who are believed to be implicated with him in the death of some of the policemen shot. The Y. M. C. A.'s refusal to accept Messrs. Thompson and Bowles as members, a year or more ago, has caused it to lose a number of contributions—one the last week.

When in doubt about anything, consult Dr. Shea, the marvelous medium, of Brooklyn, N. Y.

Gives the names of dead and living friends, tells who and when you will marry, also of business, journeys, lawsuits, absent friends, health or anything you wish to know, no matter what it is. He can call up your spirit friends and show them to you. Can make them rap all around the room. He asks no questions; don't ask you to write the names for him. Don't try to pump you in any way, but don't. You must dorsed by leading Spiritualists everywhere; received from them a gold medal and special license to practice his wonderful powers; credentials no one else can show; can give thousands of references to both white and colored patrons. Twenty-five years practice—seven in Brooklyn—will show you that he can do all he tells of. Can tell you what business is best for you and where. Can tell you how to win speedy marriage with one you love. How to be successful in all your doings, in short terms. Can do to do. Be successful when others fail. Can resist satisfaction or no pay. Call and see. You will find it lucky to consult this refined Christian gentleman. He has a medicine that will cure drunkenness; can be given patients not knowing it. Thousands through him are now Rich, Happy and Successful In all their undertakings, while those who neglect his advice are still laboring against poverty and adversity. Through his perfect knowledge of chemistry he can impart to you a secret that will overcome your enemies and win you friends. His aid and advice have often been solicited; the result has always been the securing of speedy and happy marriage and all your wishes. In love affairs he never fails. He has the secret of winning the affections of men, who give their powers nor references. It is the curse of Spiritualism that in all large cities there are a class of men and women who claim powers they do not possess. They have neither gifts, credentials nor references. Surely the colored people are not so wanting in sense as to throw their time and money away on such. DR. SHEA refers to the Hon. Charles Miller, capitalist, 2481 Atlantic avenue; the Hon. Wm. Denmore, architect and builder, 41 Cleveland, av. and Arthur Sewell, ship builder, South Brooklyn. All have known him for the past seven years. He gives a free test of his power to him. The Doctor has practiced for years in Louisiana, Memphis, and Louisville, and understands thoroughly the diseases, spells or influences the race is subject to. He is now and always has been a true friend to the colored people and always had a large patronage from them.

I gave him up as dead. Hearing of the wonderful things DR. SHEA was doing, I resolved to consult him. He told me my husband was alive and well and where he was; told me he would come home and when. To my joy all of it came true. He is home now; came back like one from the dead. I also wish to say that this month I lost the sum of $2.00. I am a poor woman and I was most insane. I went to DR. SHEA and he told me I would find my husband. I did not find it he told me. I thank God there is a gifted in our midst that can help people and tell them what to do.

If you go into a store to buy an article that has achieved universal popularity like Cascarets Candy Cathartic for example, you feel it has the endorsement of the world. The judgment of the people is infallible because it is impersonal. The retailer who wants to sell you "something else" in place of the article you ask for, has an ax to grind. Don't it stand to reason? He's trying to sell something that is not what he represents it to be. Why? Because he expects to derive an extra profit our of your credulity. Don't you see through his little game? The man who will try to sell you a substitute for Cascarets is a fraud. Beware of him! He is trying to steal the honestly earned benefits of a reputation which another business man has paid for, and if his conscience will allow him to go so far, he will go farther. If he cheats his customer in one way, he will in another and it is not safe to do business with him. Beware of the Cascaret substitutor! Remember Cascarets are never sold in bulk but in metal boxes with the long tailed "C" on every box and each tablet stamped C. C. C. "Have your summer vacation plans matured yet, Billy?"

P. A., Chicago The Odds and Ends of Fashion at Gay Newport Notes on Several of the Subjects Dear to the Feminine Heart—Latest Thing in Sleeves SO RAPIDLY does the whirl of fashion pass prospective subjects before me that I hardly know which to choose and which to let pass unnoticed. And yet this is not an unusual season in fashions; if unusual at all, it is more because of a lack of novelties than because of their number. But there are little things that go to make the fashionable woman's toilette, and little things that are designed to suit all tastes, all forms, and all complexions. To mention one of these little things as a starter, we will take the girl who has not what is styled as the "hot weather arm." To be more exact, the girl who is not blessed with that plumness of arm that looks well under a thin sleeve. There was a time, not so very long ago, when the girl who was afflicted in this way was THE FASHION OF THE EASTERN WOMAN. TWO PRETTY AFTERNOON BLOUSES. One is of white swiss trimmed with Valenciennes lace yoke of the swiss with a finish below of Valenciennes inse sign. A frill of the lace around the high stock. The tiste blouse with a tucked vest of white China silk. Plai of the tucked white silk. One is of white swiss trimmed with Valenciennes lace. It has pointed tucked yoke of the swiss with a finish below of Valenciennes insertion in a square design. A frill of the lace around the high stock. The other is a light pink batiste blouse with a tucked vest of white China silk. Plain sleeves, with a cuff of the tucked white silk. rather to be pitilied for more than one reason. First, the thin sleeves that showed a plump arm through the soft gauzy materials were the only correct thing to wear. The long sleeved under waists of a year ago disappeared early in the season with most people, but the girl without the needed plumpness of arm had to retain them in self defense, and so not only suffered from remorse at being out of fashion, but with the heat as well, and it was the suffering from the heat that comprises the second of the reasons why such girls were to be pitilied. worn over a simple little white gown and with a big white hat simply trimmed of the same material. Imageine that if you can—and what woman could not—and then you have the fichu of the day with all of its charming sweetness. Truly it is worthy of the popularity which is being bestowed upon it, and long may that popularity live. Now to go to another subject, but one that is not nearly so attractive. I must mention the use of carrots as a trimming for summer hats. Just think of it. carrots used as trimming But while Dame Fashion may have been a little backward about providing for these unfortunate maidens the relief has come at last, and the girl with an unshapely arm can now wear light sleeves without the necessity of 1 BLOUSE OF PALE BLUE MOUSSELINE DE SOIE. This blouse is shirred in a pointed yoke effect, with point D'Alencon lace over the shoulder forming a broad rever. At the side there is a piece of lace coming from under the arm to the waist line. It has fancy shirred sleeves, with lace forming a V cuff. a warm and uncomfortable under waist, or witnout the necessity of displaying them to the public. All of this has been accomplished by means of the puff. To-day puffed sleeves are quite as fashionable—some say even more so—than the tighter ones that have been the delight of the girl with the "hot weather arm." It does not take a great imagination to realize what a comfort it is to the slender girl, with long slender arms, to be able to don a pretty muslin gown made with four or five puffs around the upper part of the sleeve, with a large one at the elbow, and the lower part plain to the wrist, and to know that in this dress she is not only in style, but able to compete with her more favored sister of the "hot weather arm."

Pie crust, 30 to 40 minutes. Potatoes, 30 to 45 minutes. Turkey, 10 pounds, 3 hours. Pudding, plum, 2 to 3 hours. Cake, plain, 20 to 40 minutes. --- THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 4, 1900. On the whole puffs are satisfactory affairs for sleeves anyway. Tucked sleeves made of the pretty flowered materials of the season always give one a nightmare to see how the flowers have been transformed into botanical monstrosities by the tucks, and this the puffs relieve, tor they do not distort the patterns of the flowers. Puffed sleeves are daily growing in favor, and the girls with the slender arms are praying that they may continue to do so. Another of the subjects which have been hovering about is the development of the fichu. True, there have been fichus of one kind and another for the past season or two, but they are not the charmingly pretty old-time effect that is popular to-day. Just imagine one of muslin with big soft pink roses on a white ground, 1 Valenciennes lace. It has pointed tucked Valenciennes insertion in a square dehigh stock. The other is a light pink ba-China silk. Plain sleeves, with a cuff worn over a simple little white gown, and with a big white hat simply trimmed of the same material. Imagine that if you can—and what woman could not—and then you have the fichu of the day with all of its charming sweetness. Truly it is worthy of the popularity which is being bestowed upon it, and long may that popularity live. Now to go to another subject, but one that is not nearly so attractive, I must mention the use of carrots as a trimming for summer hats. Just think of it, carrots used as trimming on the charming hats of the summer, those pretty creations of all the soft fluffy materials that are manufactured, and nestled among these—a carrot. I do not ask you to imagine such a thing; I do not like to imagine it myself, and I do not have to to realize that the using of them in this way is a reality, for I have seen it—and have tried hard to forget it, but without success, for the idea haunts me. I suppose next it will be potatoes and onions or miniature pumpkins. Among the unfortunate mortals who must wear a frock more than one season—and I am sorry to say that I am numbered with them—the use of black velvet ribbon as a trimming for gowns is popular. This is true because the ribbon can be washed with the gown without damage to either, and the operation saves, oh, so many stitches. To those who have never tried this experiment but wish to, I would say that they should be prepared to witness a change in the appearance of the ribbon after it has passed under the iron, for then it will look more like black satin than black velvet, but will otherwise be quite as good as new, and that cannot be said to be a detriment. There is one subject, large in its dimensions to the extent of columns if space permitted, which I must pass over with but a mention. That is the use of colored silk laces on some of the new gowns. One finds these in all shades, but they are used only where they exactly match the materials with which they are used, and in this way are decidedly pretty. Worship Clay Images. Worship Clay Images. The effete religious systems and idolatrous practices of China represent an annual expenditure of $400,000,000. There are 4,000,000 deities, 300,000 temples. Some temples are served by a hundred priests. These men are illiterate, and often from the very scum of society. About 70,000 pigs, rabbits, sheep and deer and 27,000 pieces of costly silk are annually offered at the sacrifices. They worship clay images of men, dogs, turtles, snakes, lizards and insects. The people live in dread of evil spirits, which are supposed to cause disease and calamity. They propitiate the evil spirits rather than pray to the good, having a belief in the cruelty and heartlessness of the gods. AIRY BITS OF WIT. The hay dealer does business on a large scale.

It doesn't pray to be a prodigal son unless you are partial to veal. --- WALTHAM WATCHES Before 1854 there were no Waltham Watches nor any American Watches. To-day the tradition that one must go abroad for a good watch has been exploded by the American Waltham Watch Company. SERVED HIM RIGHT He Advised Others But Did Not Fold low Out His Own Suggestions. The crowd began to gather as soon as the man fell down. One of the thoughtful ones ran to a drug store aand rang up an ambulance, and in a few moments a great clanging and clattering was heard down the street. Then the ambulance drew alongside the curb, the natty young physician discounted from the rear step, and the crowd standing around the man who had fallen formed a lane for him to pass through. It required only a glance for the natty young physician to see what ailed the man, says the Washington Post. "Prostrated by the heat," he said, coolly, to the crowd. "Anybody here know him?" There was no reply, but just as the ambulance men were about to pick up his prostrate man a stout man pushed his way through the crowd, glanced at the limp form of the victim of the heat, and said: "Here, you can just fetch him up to my house. He lives with my family. He's the man who writes the 'Hints on How to Keep Cool in Hot Weather' for the papers." Horrors of War. The hardworked humorist sat at his desk, and without the slightest apparent effort he dashed this off: "Why do you Peking here?" asked Tsi Ann of the Russian general, who was reonnoitering in the imperial neighborhood. "Because I am going to Taku," was the re- "Because I am going to Taku," was the re-ference reply. Yet such things as this were not mentioned among the horrors of war discussed at The Hague conference. — Baltimore American. Lane's Family Medicine: Moves the bowels each day.

Immense precautions did he use, yet with that terror throbbed. He thought thieves might take anything—his folks, his goods, his life—so when he went away from home he always wired his wife. He pursed his lips to keep them safe, he used to hide his son; he always kept his books well bound; he liked tied games alone. Of course he'd lashes on his eyes, and, as it sometimes rains, he took in all the shows each night. His arguments had chains. He wouldn't buy a chainless wheel, although the neighbors laughed; and when he died he left a wish they'd sink his marble shaft.—Yale Record. Lydia E.

Was Merely Seeking Information as to Prices of Country Comforts and Conveniences. "What!" carpingly ejaculated the summer boarder from the city, as he glared pop-eyedly at the altitudinous bill which, says Puck, the honest agriculturist had just presented to him. "Ninety-six dollars and thirty cents for two weeks' board for myself, wife and three small boys? Now, look here, Mr. Hooks—" "Ye had the use of the hoss and carry-all whenever ye wanted 'em," interrupted old Farmer Hooks, doggedly. "Your boys ett up considerable many of my apples, and, then, there's the fishin' and the scenery, and the—er—grangers' picnic, and Uncle Hiram Tinker's funeral, and the eclipse of the moon, and—er—ah!—all that, and—" "But, pshaw, man! the only time we used your old carry-all the horse was so sulky that I had to lead him most of the way, and the vehicle broke down and I paid more for having it repaired than it was worth.

We didn't eat any of the scenery, nor do we expect to carry any of it away with us. We were in no way responsible for the late Mr. Tinker's funeral, and, I may add, did not particularly enjoy it. We did not attend the grangers' picnic, and, as for paying you for the eclipse of the moon, I'll be—" "Looker here! Do you mean to insinuate that I'm tryn' to gouge ye?" "Oh, no; certainly not! But, by the way, the present wealth of the United States is estimated at $100,000,000,000, and—er—" "Wa-al!" "Well, I was merely wondering if you were trying to get it all at once?" IT'S ALL IN A NAME. One Reason Why the Conservative Negro Whitewasher Lost His Occupation. "What's in a name?" asked Shakespeare. Everything, may be answered, and no one has made the answer more plain to the ordinary mortal than Booker T. Washington, the noted colored orator, says the Chicago Times-Herald. While lecturing in Omaha last winter he paused in the midst of his remarks and asked: "How many negro boys in Omaha are learning a mechanical trade?" And from the vast audience came the reply: "Not one." Then Mr. Washington proceeded to tell the negro boys what they should do. The old colored man with his brush and pail of whitewash once made a good living. But he was a whitewasher." The first thing he knew a white man came along with an assortment of brushes and several colors of wash under fancy names. The white man called himself an "interior decorator," and the old colored man's job was gone forever. "You negro boys," continued Mr. Washington, "must become interior decorators, for the whitewashing job is done." An Insinuation. The Plumber—I believe that we will all follow the same vocation in the next world as we do in this. The Carpenter—Well, if that is true, you will be out of a job. "Why so?" "What use will they have for plumbers where there is no water?"—Cleveland Plain Dealer. Just about seven-eighths of the people should cut out that part about forgiving one's enemies before they repeat the Lord's prayer—Atchison Globe. The summer's awful heat will kill those not fit to resist it—those whose bodies are full of poison because they have neglected their bowels. The victims of sunstroke, or of any of the other terrible dangers of summer-diarrhoea, dysentery, cholera morbus—are always those who have been careless about keeping clean inside, and as a result have their blood full of rotten filth breeding disease germs and their bodies ready with weakness to succumb to the hot spell. Dizziness, heat headaches, sick stomachs, sticky oozing ill-smelling sweats, restless nights, terrible pains, gripes and cramps in the bowels, sudden death on the street, all result from this neglect. Keep yourself clean, pure and healthy inside, disinfected as it were, with CASCARETS CANDY CATHARTIC, the greatest antiseptic bowel tonic ever discovered and you will find that every form of summer disease will be effectively The man who smokes Old Virginia Cheroots has a satisfied, "glad I have got it" expression on his face from the time he lights one.
