COLORED VOTERS OF PETTIS GO. Look at the Republican County Candidates who Solicits your Votes THE VOL IX COLORED OF PETT Look at the Republica dates who Solicits The best Mer for these position run our County affairs. Read what the People think of our County Ticket—Read all of them careful. We take this opportunity to present to the colored voters of Pettis County, the names of the different republican candidates who are now before you for the different county and township offices. We feel that each colored voter, no matter who he may be should be interested in the county election and who shall run these offices for the next two and four years. Each of these men that we shall mention are true blue republicans and has been tried time and again and has never betrayed a trust, they have much in helping to build up the party. They are each thoroughly qualified in ever way, and has for years proven to be friends to the colored people in every respect, let him be who they maybe. You need not fear that you may cast your vote or persuade your friend to cast a vote for the wrong men when you vote for the following republican candidates. The first name on our ticket is that of Hon J. H. Hon J. H. BOTHWELL Bothwel, the republican nominee, for Representive. Representative. Mr Bothwel, is one of the leading business men of our city and a man who has the interest of the people a heart. He has been laboring for the people as their representative of this county for the past number of years, and has made one, that the great state of Missouri has esteemed highly and the people of Sedalia and Pettis county, both democrat and republicans are proud of, as he is an honest gentleman and a valuable representative. He has been chosen by the republican convention as their nominee for reelection, and now solicits your support. Vote for Mr. Bothwell and return him to his seat in the house of representatives, and Pettis county will rank among the leading counties of the state: The next name on our ticket comes that of Mr. C FOR PROSECUTING ATTORNEY C. C. Kelly. C. Kelly, who is our candidate for prosecuting attorney. He has been a resident of our city for a number of years, and has been a leading factor of the Pettis county bar. So well does he stand as a lawyer that he was elected city attorney for two terms, and during each term has made a valuable counselor. We point to Mr. Kelly with pride, because he is a native of Missouri, born and raised in Missouri, and secondly because he has ever proven himself a friend of the colored man, and has stood by them at all times when in need of a friend. He has been their friend in business transactions and has never refused a deserving man a helping hand. We ask you to vote for him because we know of his ability and fitness for the office. He is backed up by the leading business men of our city, who know that the interests of the taxpayers and property owners will be protected in this office, and that the law will be handled down to every man without regard to wealth or color, and that the colored man will have the same courtesy shown him as any other man. We ask you to help elect him and get your friends to do likewise, and when you do this you will have a --- S. DALIA MISSOURI SATURDAY AUGUS: 30 action, and are right Men to s.

He was raised among colored people and this makes him feel close to them. When you cast your vote for Mr. Daugharty you will have voted for a deserving gentleman one who can and will fill this office with credit, not only to himself but to every individual in the county. We ask you to support him during this campaign, and get your friends to do likewise, because he is the right man for the right place. The 4th name on the ticket is that of our old friend R N Lower, who is the republican nominee for county clerk. Mr. Lower, as every colored voter of the county knows, has made us one of the best clerks we have ever had without exception. He gave such satisfaction that no one can say a word against him. He was nominated four years ago for reelection, but was defeated by eight votes. We do not hesitate a moment in telling you to cast your vote for him, because he has proven to the masses of colored people for years that he was a friend who stuck to them tighter than a leech, and at no time either in or out of office has he failed or refused to do some friendly act to some poor black or white man. The only thing the colored voter can expect from these offices is to have their friends in power, and when we have voted for and elected him we feel assured that we have a friend in the office of county clerk. He is too well known in Pettis county to think of turning him down. He has done much to help the city and farmers to let him to be defeated again. He has done too much for the negroes for even one of them to think of voting against him. We owe our vote to him and let the colored people of our county join together and make his majority 800 majority instead of in the minority. The 5th name is that of Judge W E Conner, who is the re- FOR RECORDER W E Conner. publican nominee for recorder. judge Conner is an old republican, and has labored in the ranks for years and has received but few rewards.

He has been a strong supporter of the party for years, and has never asked for an office at their hands. He now asks your support for probate judge, which he is entitled to.

The 7th name on the ticket is that of Samuel Bowser, who is the republican candidate for sheriff. He was a candidate two years ago, but was defeated by JC Porter.

He made a judge that everyone was proud of. He had been urged by a host of friends to make the race for collector, both black and white, because they know of his ability and qualifications to serve the people of Pettis county. We urge upon the colored voters of this county to stand by Mr. Ringen for this office.

He is a warm friend of the colored voters, never failing to do them a friendly actor giving advice. His past record demands that he be returned to this office for a second term.

Wm J. Bryan will be in Sedalia September 10th. to revive up his free silver friends for the fall campaign. But it won't save some of them this time B The Republican county central committee wants to guard well against those grafters this year, and take care of those who are honest in their effords and result will be better. A warrant has at last be issued for the arrest of the would-be murderer, Scott of Bunceton, for shooting Bert Wright, in this city last Tuesday week. Remember when you vote for Hon J. H. Bothwel for representative, that you not only vote for a man who is recognized as one of the leader among the business men of the state, but you enable him to cast one vote for a republican Senator. In order to help us in putting the state of Missouri into the ranks of true prosperity along with the other great states of the Union, you must vote the Republican ticket straight from top to bottom. The Negroes of Sedalja certainly needs to organize their forces, not to bleed candidates for beer, whiskey and cigars, not to run dancing hall and crap joints, but to something for themselves in the way of getting public jobs and protection. The colored voters of Pettis county can and will show their loyalty to the Republican party of this state when they cast their voters solid for Hon Henry Lamm, for Judge of Supreme Court. Some of the many reasons why we ask you to vote for Hon Henry Lamm, for one of the Judges of the supreme court. Because the peop.e of our state needs such man as him in this important place. Because he is one or the best lawyers in the state and understands it thoroughly. Because he will give the people of Missouri honest and fair decisions in all matters in the supreme court. He will see to it that the wholesale robbery gang at the state house broken to pieces. He will know what has become of school fund. He will see why Missouri cannot have an honest election law and the people have a chance to count votes. He will help to stop the bribery business in our large cities. He will hold Governor Dockery up before the people. He will see that politics is kept out of our state schools, institutes and academies.

"The average life of the nickel cigar is five years," said a prominent tobacco man to a writer for the New Orleans Times-Democrat, "and it is curious to note the differences which have enabled cigar men to arrive at this general average of the five-cent cigar's life. Many cigars of this class run through a long series of years. There are some brands now that have been running for more than a quarter of a century under the same name, and they are really the same cigars, made in the same way, having the same flavor and all that sort of thing. In this connection I have been impressed by the remark which we often hear about certain brands of cigars changing in quality. I heard a man say the other day that he had been smoking a certain brand of cigars for two years or longer, but that the cigar was getting so bad that he had concluded to quit buying it at all. "It is nothing like the same cigar,' he said; 'the taste has changed, and it tastes like a mixture of cabbage leaves.' Now he was altogether wrong about that. I know the cigar, know how it is made and all about it, and I know that no sort of change has been made in the process of manufacture. The trouble is that man's taste changes. He may get up feeling badly, his stomach may be in bad shape, and of course the cigar will not taste as it did when his system was in better condition. The cigar is blamed, and he simply dashes the thing into the street, and quits buying it. Instances of this sort are very common. Mind you I do not mean to say that some of the brands do not change. There are tricks in the cigar business, just as there are tricks in other trades. But in nine cases out of ten the trouble is with the smoker. But recurring to the age of cigars, the average to which I have referred has been settled upon by tobacco men and is accepted throughout the country. It is reached by taking the two extremes, the good and the bad five cent cigar, and figuring back to the middle. Some five cent cigars close with the first lot made. They are failures, having nothing in them to recommend them to the public. The material out of which they are made would not make decent 'three-fors,' the kind that are sold to the negroes on the river. The higher grades of five cent cigars are made as carefully, and with as much skill as the cigars that are sold at a higher price, and I do not mind saying that many of them are really far superior in material, flavor and method of manufacture. So many of them, however, are of the cheap kind that the average is lowered to five years, while the average life of the higher priced cigars will run to a much higher figure." TWO MOONS OF SALT. Some Interesting Statements Concerning Amount of Salt in the Sea Roughly speaking, says the Cincinnati Commercial Tribune, if you take the salt out of the sea water, you deprive it of a thirtieth of its weight. On that basis one-thirtieth of the entire weight of all the sea water in the world is salt, and, as salt and water bulk about the same, we may estimate, also, that, by bulk, one-thirtieth of the huge mass of the ocean is pure salt. What does this bring us to? Taking the 130,000,000 odd square miles of the five oceans to average $ \frac{1}{2} $ miles deep, we have in them alone 100,000,000 cubic miles of salt water. A thirtieth of this should give us the bulk of the salt contained in the great waters of the globe. Rounding the figures, we get something like 7,000,000 cubic miles of salt. If it were taken out and spread ever the surface of the six continents they would be covered with its snowy powder to a depth almost equal to the height of Bunker Hill monument, in Boston. To put it another way, if all the earth were salt water there would be enough salt in it to make two globes of solid salt but very little smaller than our moon. ANGEL FISH A FIGHTER. Beautiful Outwardly, But So Cantankerous That It Lived Along. There died at the aquarium recently an angel fish that for years had had a tank all to itself. It differed from the other angel fish exhibited there also in the respect that it lived unusually long in captivity, says the New York Sun. One reason why the angels are hard to keep is their scrappiness among themselves. The fight and quarrel and wound one another with the sharp spines with which their gill covers are armed. This long-lived angel fish killed two or three tank mates, or so wounded them that they died of their injuries, and it continued to attack other angel fish put into the tank with it, until finally, and because of its great beauty, it was permitted to occupy a tank by itself. It was a vigorous, hardy fish, and the brightest-colored fish the aquarium has ever had; and all angel fish are beautiful. Some angel fish have yellow tails. This one had a blue tail with a yellow edge and the characteristic angel fish blue of its body was of the deepest and at the same time the most vivid and brilliant blue. At times it seemed almost luminous; it was a wonderful and most beautiful blue. Fighter as it was among its kind, it was one of the tamest fish in the aquarium. It took food from the hand when it had been there two weeks, and was ready to take food in that manner always thereafter. On the last day that it was fed something so frightened the angel fish that it jumped out of the water and struck the wire screen over its tank with such violence as to inflict a serious cut in its head. It had been in perfect health and condition up to that time, but, susceptible as all fishes are to fright and shock, this was too much for it, and in the following two days it went through a familiar course. Sometimes it would rush about, and in this blind scurrying do itself some other injury, and sometimes it would go round and round in a small circle, for minutes or an hour at a time, only to fly off into tantrums again, and finally to die of exhaustion.

"Oh, I never pay any attention to advertisements; they never tell the truth." Now it's different; people do read advertisements and they believe them. Advertisers are becoming more careful and more scrupulously truthful every day. I know a firm of advertising agents who also own a medicated soap. I said: "Is it really such a wonderful thing, and do you take the care you say you do in making it?" The answer was: "Pushing a poor article." "Of course it is a good thing. We have seen too much of advertising to be fools enough to spend money pushing a poor article." Most all advertisers understand this nowadays, and that is why advertising pays better than it used to. The best place to put an advertisement is in the paper that enjoys the confidence of the community. I believe that the standing of the paper reflects on the advertisements it carries. There is another thought which never occurred to me, but which was conveyed in a remark recently made to me by Mr. M. M. Gillam, the advertising manager at Wanamaker's. He said: "A sleepy paper gathers a sleepy constituency. An alert, wideawake, progressive sheet gets readers who like that sort "A sleepy paper gathers a sleepy constituency. An alert, wideawake, progressive sheet gets readers who like that sort of thing—or lifts them to its level." Wideawake people are the ones most influenced by advertising—progressive people who are not afraid of a new thing or a new idea; people who believe in the paper they read because they have learned to rely on it. Depend upon this. If the editorials carry weight, the ads. will pay. Put your trust and your money in that sort of a paper. Occasionally an advertisement will fall flat. The wise man looks for the reason. He doesn't say blindly: "Advertising doesn't pay." He looks at the condition of general trade, at the weather, at the goods and the price and the way the ad. was worded. This is certain: A readable ad. in a readable paper will be read. Probably not by all of the readers of the paper, but by a sufficient number to make the ad. pay, if the goods are right. No doubt about it whatever. It's as sure as sunshine. A cloudy day comes sometimes, but it doesn't stay long. "If the editorials carry any weight." Copyright, Charles Austin Bates, New York. Let us DO Your JOB WORK LAXAKOLA FOR WOMEN. FREE TO ALL!

From Infancy To Age BABY MOM MOTHER Laxakola for Babies.--It is the best and most effective remedy for children BEST because it is pure and safe being made entirely of harmless ingredients. BEST because it is non-irritating and never grips or causes pain or irritation. BEST because it is sure and never fails. BEST because "Children like it and ask for it." BEST because its tonic properties are so good and so strengthening that it keeps the little ones in fine, hearty condition. It is a dangerous thing to give little babies violent cathartics that rack and rend their little bodies. DON'T DO IT—give them LAXAKOLA. For constipation, coated tongue, simple colds, restlessness, loss of sleep and fevers it is invaluable. A few drops can be given with safety to very young babies, and it will often relieve colic by expelling the wind and gas that cause it. It will aid digestion, relieve restlessness, assist nature and induce sleep. Great relief is experienced when administered to young children suffering from diarrhea, accompanied with white or green evacuations, as LAXAKOLA neutralizes the acidity of the bowels and carries out the cause of the fermentation. My father is 3 months old and is teething. He was sick and I tried a good many things, but nothing seemed to relieve him. I had a doctor, who said it was inflammation of the bowels, and that I would never pull him through pain. I had a doctor, who said it was getting worse, and that I would never pull him through pain. I had a doctor, who said it was getting worse, and that I would never pull him through pain. I had a doctor, who said it was getting worse, and that I would never pull him through pain. I knew what it was to close my eyes and right. I gave him a few drops of LAXAKOLA and it relieved him. I gave him a few times, and it worked with a lemon and he no. rests pretty far all night. He is a great deal better than I was. I gave him LAXAKOLA, and I think if I were not given else to their sick babies. MISS. MARY DALLEY, 901 First Street, South Boston, Mass. Laxakola for Young Girls on the threshold of womanhood, has been found invaluable. When they become pale and languid, face bloodless, eyes dull, head aching, feet and hands cold, appetite gone or abnormal, and their systems generally run down, they need building up, and their blood needs cleansing. Give them LAXAKOLA; its gentle bowel action to cleanse, and its tonic properties to build up the system, will show immediate and most beneficial results. It acts promptly, surely but gently on the bowels, and while stimulating the liver to increased activity, its tonic properties strengthen the nerves, renew vitality and restore color to the face and life and animation to the whole system. It is the only tonic laxative that strengthens and tones them up. Laxakola for Mothers.—It is particularly valuable and useful to women, especially mothers, as it is a gentle and safe remedy to use during all conditions of health whenever their peculiar and delicate constitutions require a mild and efficient laxative and tonic; while to nursing mothers, worn out with the care of infants and whose systems therefore are particularly susceptible to disease, LAXAKOLA directly appeals. It clears the complexion, brightens the eye, sharpens the appetite, removes muddy and blotched condition of the skin and cures sick headache to a certainty by removing the cause. To women suffering from chronic constipation, head-aches, biliousness, dizziness, sallowness of the skin and dyspepsia, LAXAKOLA will invariably bring relief and a positive and permanent cure.

"Bottle came sale, did me a lot of good, druggist here don't keep it, so enclosed is 500, please send me quickly another bottle. The last bottle did me so much good I want another at once." April 11th. "Enclosed is 500, for one more bottle LAXAKOLA. It has done me much good." Laxakola for Old Folks.—In the Autumn and Winter of Life, when the various organs through long years of action have become more or less sluggish, it becomes necessary to stimulate them by some remedy best a apted to that purpose. So long as the stomach and bowels are doing their work properly and the liver and kidneys are active and strong, your food is assimilated properly, your blood is kept pure and rich, and your nerves are strong. The feeling of nervousness, general weakness and debility means that the whole system is run down and needs a general toning up. That LAXAKOLA DOES IT, has been proved beyond all question. Its gentle warming, soothing action on the bowels, liver and kidneys, stimulates them to increased activity, cleanses the blood, quickens the circulation, and puts the whole system in a condition of health and enables it to ward off disease, while its tonic properties tone up the system and keep it healthy. Laxakola Does It. Blotched, sallow, unwholesome and muddy skin, with its consequent mortification, often leading to morbid seclusion and aversion to society and friends, to the loss of self-confidence and to clear the complexion and restore it to its normal healthy, velvety condition is to clean out the entire system, purify the blood and remove the toxins. Pale, Weak, Run-down, Overworked Mothers with Fretty Children, half sick, nervous, tired out with household and laundry, sick, liver torpid, with blotched, muddy, sallow complexions, blood thin and impure, need building up and a thorough renovation of their systems. This is the time you need a nerve nerve nerve as NAKOA the greatest extraxia.
