Sick Headache Nervous Headache, Neuralgia, Ner
vousness, Sleeplessness and Dyspepsia. 1t has
been proved that they successfully ward off all dan
ger of Paralysis Apoplexy and Sudden death. Their

derful, and there Is no wonder that thousands OF
people avail themselves of such valuable remedy,
while it may be found, in these days of Nervous
Diseases. The simplicity and purity of these pills
are at once in their favor, as they do not physic.
Paralytics that have not walked for two years

WAR CLOUDS.

Since the Russian general, SHosELErr,
made his famous speech in Paris few
weeks since, rumors of war have been rife
in European circles. The general, although
speaking in n private capacity, seems to
have aroused German feeling to an unusual
extent, and his language is particularly
distasteful to Austria, which is at present
engaged in character Of race conflict
with the Herzegovinians. The general
declared that conflict between the slavs
and Germans was inevitable and init
mated very strongly that his people were
willing TO engage in the same at the ear.
licst possible moment, and boast
tingly concluded that the Germans in such
event were bound to be worsted. Since
that time bad blood has been steadily grow
ing between the Russian and German gov.
crnments and our latest dispatches present
rather serious state of affairs across the
waters. 1t is the policy of tho ear and his
MINISTERS, of course, to draw attention
away from home matters and the wide
spread internal dissension of his empire by
a foreign war and the occurrences on the
| southeastern frontier Of Austria at present,
where his Slavic subjects are in revolt are
quite likely to afford all requisite excuses,
| In case the governments of Russia and
| Austria should become involved in war
| those other nations, France and Germany,
would be inevitably drawn into the con.
iiict, the latter IN behalf of Austria and the
former in alliance with Russia. Where
the combinations would stop II is hard to
say, but u general and bloody European
struggle might be expected. The prepare.
tions which for some time past have been
going on In all these countries Of warlikC
character give strength to the rumors o
war, and before the spring has closed
we may be called upon to witness one
of the worst conflicts OF modern times
Happily we in America have nothing to
say ON the subject, and of course will play
no figure In the drama IL enacted. Finan
cially, however, wo may expect considera

Ar the late annual banquet of the Boot

cago, many of the more prominent dealers
boldly declared that not only did they
think that the present tariffs In this coun.

caused other nations and sections to lcgis-
late against our goods in retaliation, and
many people near US who ought to be sup.
piled by American dealers have not dol
lars trade with us. From these considera
tons they most nil thought something
should be done either by chcapcning III,
