could not bear the slightest pressure without giving
me pain. My health was most miserable; many
physicians told me they thought Twas in the consump

change climate, could live but short time.

pills but having tried most other medicines without
obtaining any relief had but little faith that your pills
would be OF benefit to me but at his earnest soncl-

foreigner. He comes in. not because OF the duty, but IN

ty. and the consumer pays 1t TO him and he receives the
advanced price occasioned by the imitation. The consul
mer pays that bat he does more-he pays a similar
price to The producer Of the home article. The difference
is. that part of the price of the foreign article goes into
the treasury, but none Of the price of the home product.
1t is one of the cases. too. where the consumer pays the
duty and yet it comes out Of the pocket of the imPor-

This is the result of an inflated currency. Il, would he a
