A Hint to WOrkingIncn.

The honest workingmen of the country, many
of whom have large and increasing families to
support, have been the chief sufferers from the
great financial pressure under which we have
labored for the last few years. Diminished wages
have not been attended by a corresponding dimin-
ution in price of everything which the working
cheaper, but these do not constitute all his ncces
stiles. 1t is sometimes necessary for him to en-
ploy lawyer or physician, yet the fee rates of
in Flush" times. Yet cheaper medicines are as
necessary as cheap rents or fuel. Cheap medicines
are not necessarily poor medicines. 1t must be
obvious to every intelligent person that medicines,
compounded and put up ut wholesale, can be sold
at much lower rates than when retailed from the
doctors pill bags. DIR. Ficrcc's Golden Medical
Discovery and Pleasant Purgaiivc Pellets have
completely restored persons who had spent hun
drcds of dollars in vainy seeking relief from pri-
vate practitioners, and all at very slight cypcn-
littlrp.

volvcr sticking out of his pocket. The fisher
men, seeing the weapon, were afraid of an en-
counter with the tramps, and pretended to be
armed also. One said TO the other that he would
shoot the next fish he caught. This remark
