sherman on the Sale of Four and Half
Per Cent. Bonds.

WHSHINGToN, April 22.-Secretary Sherman,
upon being asked about the statement made
by General Butler at dinner in Boston, said
General Butler must have been misre presented
or had fallen into several grave mistakes in
regard to the loans. 1t was not true that the
people We're buying four per cent. bonds
at par at the rate OF S5O0,0O0 month, for the
whole amount of sales Of such bonds from the
LIST of December TO the 18th OF April, the date
of the contract, was S5,69S, OO), or little over
Sl.O0U,C00 a month, and ii is not true that n
sold AZ per cent. bonds for 30 years; no
such bonds are authorized. The bonds
sold We're ~ per cent. bonds for Is years, and
they were not sold at par, but at y per cent.
and accrued interest, the premium in gold
coin or its equivalent OF 1929 of currency,
which was the market rate for that day, and
about aa equivalent rS of pa, for per
since the contract was made we are selling
four per cent. bonds very rapidly, having sold
SloIl,l5O In ten days, or at tho rate of over
fetal effects of the contract, the result OF con
hdence inspired by it, AS to the
stories that Mr.. Sherman was summoned
beiore the house committee on ba liking and
currency. or withheld or concealed the recent
contract with the syndicate for the sale of the
AZ per cent bonds, or its terms, Mr.. Sherman
said that he had not been summoned before
the committee. The committee knew very
well that he is at their service, and will
readily respond to their request without form
ality, and thatno summons has either been
issued or necessary. He received a letter from
General Ewing, the acting chairman, and
promptly answered IL, inclosng a copy of the
contract, and previously copy of
the same contract had been given
10 MIR. Glover, at his request.
The contract embraced the sale OF s5O,0CO 600 of
bonds, OF which SIO Zoo were subscribed for
in Aprii, and for the balance the associates
had exclusive option at the rate of s5,O00,OOO a
month, but upon condition that that amount
should be sold and paid for
each month. In this respect the contract was
in the same words as the previous contract for
AZ per cent. bonds, under which Ss00O00,0CO
were sold and similar to all the contracts made
by the government for the sale of bonds. So
far from there being any concealment,
the contract was made and the whole
negotiations was in presence of half a dozen

leading bankers who were competing for The
loan, read by number OF
others. and has been communicated to con-
gress. 1t Is just as certain to result in accu-

airy next of $50, 500 600 in coin, as any contract

Myths Are But symbols OF Truth.

AS the scholar sees in the vain but beauti-
full mythologies of the ancients the embodied
expressions of the hungry human soul,
blindly cropping after the infinite, SO the
physician sees IN that popular myth of the
sixteenth century the fountain of perpetual
health and youth-an expression of the long
ings OF suffering humanity for a remedy that
shoHld forever prevent the incursIon of dis
ease. The wilds of Europe were ransacked
for this wonderful fountain and Ponce de
Leon sought for it in the cypress swamps
and tangled everglades of our sunny Florida.
Men have searched for it everywhere and
anywhere but where it really is, in the
human body itself. The blood is the real
fountain of perpetual health and youth.
When this source is corrupted, the painful
and sorrow-producing effects are visible in
many shapes The mulhfaTious forms in
which itmanifests itself wouldform subjects
upon which might write volumes. But as
all the varied forms of disease which depend
upon bad blood are cured. or best treated,
by such medicines as take up from this fluid
and excrete from the system the noxiOus
elements, it is not of practical importance
that / should describe each. For instance,
medical authors describe about fity varieties
of skin disease, but as they all require for
their cure very Similar treatment, il is of no
practical utility to know just what name to
apply to certain form OF skin disease, so
YOU know best how TO cure it. Then again.
| might go on and describe various kinds of
scrofulous sores, lever sores, white swelliDgs
enlarged glands, and ulcers of varying
appearance; might describe how virulent
poison may show itself in various forms of
eruptions ulcers, sore throat, bony tumors,
ETC.; but as all these various appearingmani
festations of bad blood are cured by Uniform
means. deem such course unnecessary.
Thoroughly cleanse the blood, which is the
great fountain of life, and good digestion, a
fair skin, buoyant spirits, vital strength and
soundness of constitution will all ret lrn to
us. For this purpose DR.. Pierce's Golden
