old Galen; once tnat terrible disease rheum~

OF the blood. Mrs Henry Bogert, No 454 Allan
tic avenue. Y, writes TO Messrs Hiscox Co,
of New York, prOprietcrs of PARkER'S
Tonic, that she has been completely disabled
from rheumatism and pain In The back and
limbs; she " as advised TO take the Tonic for
kidney disease; she did so and her rheumatism
disappeared The reason is simple; diseased
kidneys produce rheumatic symptoms; cure
them and you destroy rheumatism; this is

Why Abolish the Tariff p?

The opening of oSr own coal mines
and the increase of the annual product
has reduced the price Of coal in the
United States to less per ton at the
mines than the cost in Great Britain
and, owing to the low rates of freight,
to less per ton at the same distance
from the mine.
The policy Of Protection has reduced
the cost of iron and steel. In 1864,
when our first Bessemer steel works
were undertaken, American railroad
managers were paying from $50 to 800
per ton for English steel rails, delivered
at English seaports. In 1877, ten years
after the American mills were prepared
to manufacture steel rails to fill orders,
the price of their rails had been reduced
to $40 per ton; in 1882, ROthwithstaRd-
ing the extraordinary demand for steel
rails, caused by the boom and the ap-
probation in values of the raw matarl-
al from which they were manufactured.
shO oVOA66O PAANS ehAOA5hOoo OhO yOoA
was only S4o>50a ton. On the 1st of
January, 1888, the p:..e had fallen to
$40 ton, and Oh the lst OF January,
1884, it was S35 ton.
1t has reduced the cost of freight from
an average per ton per mile, on the
principal lines, from one cent seventy
mills in 1878 to one cent seven mills in
1880; and today official statistics show
shat railway transportation is cheaper in
the United States than in any other
country of the world. The same is
true in regard to passenger traffie.

third of the "nnlen goods used in this
