AT the head of the editorial page will be.found an address to the Republican voters of this Senatorial district in re­ gard to the method of voting for the Re­ publican candidates for the General As sembly. This address it endorsed by the three candidates. It covers exactly the position that has been taken by the PLAINDEALEB. By this course we believe we will elect three men; if we vary from it one of our candidates will probably be defeated. The way to prevent anything of the kind, is for every Republican to vote the straight Republican ticket just as it is printed. 1 MARRIED, on Wednesday, Oct. 24, at (he resident® of C. E.

They were of 1 Vermont marble, and the workmanship V|md design were very handsome. Messrs Miller & Son are turning out work equal to the best to be found anywhere. THERE never was a more invigorating climate than there is right here just now Everything one eats agrees with him and invigorates him. Fried chicken braces him up, apple and pumpkin pies are sources of energy, sweet potatoes and grapes make him eloquent and even the anticipation of buckwheat cakes and saurkraut are inspiring of patriotism. AN exchange tells of a farmer who employed a new method of making hay this season. Hs cut it with a self binder, ^curing it in liis barn in bundles very con­ venient for feeding. The hay cured in a most excellent condition and is bright and fresh--more so than .most hay cured in the ordinary way. He is pleased with the experiment and will pursue the same method next year. OOLOBH WEDDING. " ̂ ^v^iHOIAPNESS BUT HO MONET. For some time past invitations have been widely circulat«d to a grand sur­ prise. Tt)e nature of the affair was fully explained in each invitation. The friends of Mr. and Mrs. Benjamin Drur.v,of Avon Centre, were preparing for a celebration of the good couple's fiftieth wedding an­ niversary. On Tuesday, Oct. 23, at about eleven o'clock, relative, friends and neighbors to the number of over two hundred gathered at the Avon Centre school house and forming a procession of over fifty teams repaired to the Drury homestead. The surprise was complete. Everybody brought a basket of eatables find was prepared to make merry. Two tables 80 feet in length were loaded and 170 persons were seated at once. Among the presents were a gold headed cane to Mr. Drury and a gold headed umbrella to Mrs. Drury, $72.50 in gold from dif­ ferent parties, $10 in gold from a friend, a silver basket lined with gold and con­ taining $ 16 in gold from Gray's Lake friends besides several other gifts. The presentation speech was made by Eugene Gilbert. The venerable and hon orable George Gage, of McHenry, an own cousin, feelingly and lovingly responded, thanking all the dear friends on behalf of the happy couple for their kindness in remembering them, reciting a few inci­ dents o! the early pioneer life, whetj the Potawattamieludians still roamed tWee vast prairies; and how he had broken virgin Boil with an eight ox team 57 years ago, on tha very farm on which the friends were assembled. The prairie gophers were very much surprised to see trespassers upon their domain. While thus breaking one day a thunder shower came up and be made for shelter under a burr oak tree. He had barely arrived at the tree when a bolt of lightning struck a small hickory tree not six rods away shattering it all to piecns. It had always been a question with him whether the bolt had not been intended for the burr oak instead of the hickory. The delight of Mr. Drury and his esti­ mable wife was unbounded. The memory of the joyous occasion will remain when another fifty years have passed for four generations were represented. As the shadow of evening drew on the party bade adieu to the venerable couple and all joined heartily in the wish that they might celebrate their seventy-fifth anni» versary in health and happiness.--Fx tSr*Many voters, on account of this being an off year, deem the present cam­ paign of small importance and some feel that politics has little to do with busi ness. They are mistaken. There never was a more important election than this. The one thing needful now is to make better times and revive business. This can be done by voting the right way this fall. Let every voter cast his ballot for the Republican candidate for Congress and thus help to change the House of Representatives from Democratic to Re­ publican. Thus they will kill tariff re­ form. If we can prevent any more tariff legislation and agitation after March 4 next good times will soon return because businessmen and capitalists will know on what they can depend and will again enter into active work. But if the next Congress is democratic, Cleveland and all the leaders have declared that the agi­ tation will continue until absolute fre# trade is adopted.--Aw la the splendid speech made by Thos. B. Reed, in New York, Saturday night, he said that "cheapness with no money to buy is a mockery to the #ul." , But this is the cheapness which the Democrats offer the people of this coun­ try. Their one aim is to cheapen the price of goods and they nve no thought to the ability of the consumer to buy. There was never a time iti the history of the world when commodities of every kind were as cheap as th§y are to-day, and yet no merchant in overburdened with trade, and thousand* are only ex­ isting. The dry goods sfpres, furniture warerooms. hardware stoles and grocer­ ies tell a wonderful story Sf cheap prices, the like of which was never dreamed of before, and yet with all the cheap goods displayed people find it harder to buy the neefssaries of life and economy is prac­ ticed by those who have heretofore been straBgers to the necessity of curtailing expenses. "Cheapness with good wages is the de­ light of life," Mr. Reed adds, and that i£ the kind of cheapness which the Republi­ can policv of protection gives. With every industry thriving, a good market assured the manufacturer, a healthy competition keeping down exorbitant prices, and the American people are in the way of the greatest prosperity and the greatest enjoyment of life. It is not cheap goods that we want, but the abil­ ity to buy the supplies demanded by our wants, our tastes and our desires for higher living. "Cheapness with no money to buy is a mockery to the soul." HOW TO VOTE. To vote the straight ticket mfeke a cross mark in circle at the head of the ticket, and no mark whatever on the ballot. To vote a split ticket, let the circle entirely alone, and make a cross mark in square at the side of the name of each candidate voted for. A Grand Concert for McHenry. The choir of the Universalist church have secured a date from Prof. A. M. Straub and Dr. F. M. Celley, of Chicago, for Nov. 9, at the City Hall. Prof Straub is one of Chicago's first pianists, and Dr. Celley holds the samerelation on the violin. The Misses Gertrude and Caroline Straub will contribute some of their charming flute and piano duets. The vocal part and recitations will be contributed by blame talent, of which McHenry is justly proud. It will be a rare opportunity for the people of this vicinity and will not, fail to-be improved. The management have, moreover, re­ solved to furnish this entertainment at populc r prices. Tickets at Perry & Owen's. FOR SALE. A 6 ft. Water Tank. 2% ft. staves.

JOHN I. STORY. Riverside Block. Ifi^It is said that in many counties in Illinois votes were thrown out in every precint in 1892 because the voters had marked them too much or had not marked them at all. It is further stated that the imperfectly marked ballots more frequently gave evidence that the voters intended to vote the Republican than the democratic ticket. That the Republican party is made up of less intelligent men than its great rival will not be claimed by its opponents or admitted by its friends. The facts are that in uiany com­ munities the democrats had "schools for if voters" where the Republicans, rely- ints upon the intelligence af the masses, did not. As a result many Republicans lost their votes. The safe way is for every man to carefully read the official card of "instruction to voters,"required to be posted in every election district in the state; "and not only to read them but to carefully study them and know exactly how to mark the ballot so that the judges will have no reason for reject­ ing it when the count is nu de. • Thanksgiving Magazine 'When a woman is at her beet, mentally and physically, is a question which re­ ceives adequate answer at the hands of such representative women as Julia Ward Howe, Mary E.

I must say, however, I cannot praise Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin enough. For the past six mouths I havebeen troubled with gastric dyspepsia and indigestion. I could not eat or sleep with any comfort and was really dead for want of food and rest. I tried may kinds of medicine", but none helped me until my husband brought home a bottle of your Syrup Pepsin. After taking a few doses I felt better, and using it two weeks now I can eat anything and go to bed and sleep, where before I could not, and life seernp now worth living.

From a letter written by Rev. J. Gund- erman, of Dimondale, Mich., we are per­ mitted to make this extract: " I have no hesitation in recommending Dr. King's New Discovery, as the results were almost marvelous in the case of my wife. While I was pastor of thejBaptist church at Rives Junction she was brought down with Pneumonia succeeding La Grippe. Terrible paroxysms of coughing would last hours with little interruption aud it seemed as if she could,not survive them A friend recommended Dr. King's New Discovery ; it was quick in its work and highly satisfactory in results."
