ALL DISEASES OF THE BLooD.-If vEGETINE will
relieve pain, cleanse, purify and such diseases,
restoring the patient TO perfect health after trying dill
ferent physicians many remedies suffering for years,
is II not conclusive proof II you are sufferer. you can
be cured? Why is this medicine performing such
great cures? II works In the blood in the circulating

The great source OF disease originates in the blood
and no medicine that does not act directly upon It, TO
purify and rcnovate has any just claim upon public
attention.

COUNTERFEIT COIN.

Treasury authorities estimate that ST.
100000 of counterfeit coin is now in
circulation in this country and that the
amount is constantly increasing. Be-
sides the actual counterfeiting. the tricks
of s.sweating' and filling are resorted to.
AS much as So is taken from $40 gold
pieces by sweating" or filling the piece.
What remains is genuine and the i'm
print remains sharp. Splitting is an
other device. By this method as much
as $15 can be taken out of $40 piece
The piece is split into equal parts and
after being dug out the cavity is filled
with an alloy, then solder the pieces to-
gether with gold. Another process is
to bore holes in the edge, fill them with
silver, cover with gold solder and remill.
Counterfeits pure and simple are most
always below weight. One Of the most
dangerous counterfeits is that of a S.
gold piece. 1t is full weight Q29

is worth from $270 to $40. 1t is

1t will not pay to debase silver coins.
so they are counterfeited throughout.
Type metal is used for some of the small
er coins. There is counterfeit half
dollar made of silver, copper and zinc.
worth seventeen cents, and is from seven
to ten grains light. The spurious char
acter of another half-dollar is betrayed
by its thickness. It is made Of German
silver, plated with the pure metal. Aside
from the too great thickness of most
counterfeit coins, compared with the
genuine, such coins may be detected BY
their edges, the milling" on which il

TWO LABOR PARTIES.

There are two Labor parties organized
on the Pacific Coast. One. the Nation
al Labor Party, is composed, prin-
cipally, of workingmen. decent, intelli.
gent citizens, who seek to better their
condition and rid the country of Chi
nese. by legislation. The other--Kear.
ney's party--compr the hoodum
element and scum of society in the
cities. The National Party called a
meeting in San Francisco recently. 1t
was controlled by the Kearneyites,
who, as an organized mob, attempted to
deprive the Nationals of the right of tx
pressing their opiuionsand stating their
grievances, one of the principles for
which they, the Kearneyites, pretend
10 be contending. The course of the
so-called Workingmen's party in Cali
fornia. is such that no respectable or
Intelligent citizen can endorse it, and it
may be safely asserted that it has
passed the zenith of its power, while
the National party, which seems to be
controlled by thinking men. is destined
to make its influence felt in the councils
of the State
