DR.. JOHN BULLS
Smiths OnicSyrup
FOR THE CURE OF
fever and ACUE
Or CHILLS and fever.

Tho proprietor Of this celebrated medicine
justly claims for it . superiority over all rem
edies ever offered to the public for the SAFE,
CERTAIN, SPEEDY and PERMANENT cure
ofAgue and Fever, or Chills and Fever, wheth-
er of short or long standing. He refers to the
entire Western and Southern country to bear
him testimony to the truth Of tho assertion
that in no case whatever will it fai1to cure If
the directions are strictly followed and carried
out. In great many cases single dose has
been sufficient for cure, and whole families
have been cured by single bottle, with per-
feet restoration Of the general health. 1t ID,
however, prudent, and in every case more GER
tain to cure, If its usei is continued in smaller
doses for q week or two after the disease has
been checked, more especially in difficult and
long-stauding cases. Usually this medicine
will not require any aid to keep the bowels in
good order. Should the patient, however, re-
quire cathartic medicine, after having taken
three or four doses Of the Tonic, single dose Of
BULLS VEGETABLE FAMILY PILLS will
be sufficient.
The genuine SMITHS TONIC SYRUP must
have DIR. JOHN BULLS private stamp on each
bottle. Dr. JOHN BULL only has the right to
manufacture and sell the original JOHN ].
SMITHS TONIC SYRUP, Of Louisville, Ky.
Examine well the label on each bottle. If my
private stamp 10 not on each bottle, do not
purchase, or you will be deceived.

PLENTY OF MONEY.

Our hard-money friends tell us there
is plenty of money, piles of it idle in
the bank vaults, much more than the
business of the country requires. The
first thing that occurs to us when
reading such stuff is, why shouldn't
there be plenty of money in the banks?
Their money is given them for the ask
ing. Very few people would be
''short" if they had money given them
as bankers do. But upon looking over
the report of the secretary of the treas
ury for 1877, you will find other state
ments. The people of the United
States hired of these banks last year
over sSSS,O0O,O0O. The total out
standing circulation on Nov. last was
672, 2,365,SS2. Of this, s3l5,sSl, ,99O
were bank notes, and 1856, ,4S3,S 1892
were legal tenders. Very few of the
legal tender are in circulation as the
banks have boarded them as reserves,
so that the amount of money in actual
circulation last Nov. was 1915, 800
ct bank notes, with perhaps $50
100000 of greenbacks. People who
want money to use must hire it of the
banks. These banks then offer to take
care of your money and let you check
on them; and so generous are they that
they will keep your book account free
of charges. You deposit money with
the bank; perhaps in fifteen months So
per cent. of your money is loaned out
to some one else. BY this means the
banks last year loaned over 1888, ,OOO,-
900. This amount at per cent. inter
est which is the usual rate in the east.
in the west it is much higher gives them
the snug little sum of $7l, 100000, as
interest on their circulation. The 5
per cent gold interest on a479,467,771
in bonds owned by them and deposited
in Washington amounts to about $23,-
073 $50, being total of over $95, ,OOO,-
900 that these bankers draw from the
people every year. Add this amount
to the taxes We pay, and then you can
see why times are hard.
insteau OF issuing greenoackS direct
to the people, free of interest, the peo-
pie were obliged last yearto hire about
5000, 100000 of the banks to do bust
ness with. And by these robber bills
the people were compelled to pay these
bankers over 800, 900, 900 interest upon
money that might be sound if issued
by the government directly to the peo-
pie. Are the people slaves that they
SIT quietly by and allow such robbery
to go on? The American people must
choose at the coming election between
ruling themselves as free men or being
ruled by the shylocks of the country. |
There isno more halfway" work pos
sable. 1t must be freedom or slavery, !
and the people must decide which.

suspicion or corruption can be trnthfully al :
legged against them. The supervision Of ali
