"rhe Devil and the Deep Sea-"

The old story of the poor soul who was
caught between The devil and the deep
sea-" gets new Illustration from the deal
ing of doctors and drugs with malaria The
story is soon told: My daughter" said a
lady, had been struggling with malaria for
four years. She was ali the time ont Of
health-poOr appetite, disOrdered digestion,
pale earthly color pain in the head, limbs
and back, and every now and then right
hard chill, followed by fever. Then We
would send for our doctor and he would
prescribe quinine, just as he did from the
firSt-and so kept doing all alOng-until the
name of quinine sounds like the tOlling OF
the bell. Clearly between tine two, her
health was being ruined and her very life in
peril. She was really between The devil
and the deep sea- Sometimes the name is
varied, and it is called some other inc in
place of quinine, but it is all the Same-the
old firm with a new sign. In this dilema a
lady friend said: Why not try Humph-
rey's Homeopathic Specifics, Nos. Ten and
Sixteen | tried them. They were a sue
cess from the first, and not only cured the
malaria, but restored her to perfect health,
and left no trace of disease or drug pOis-

PAwNING HER BOYS CLOTHES FOR MED
ICINE. A poor woman in Wales, whose
boy had been very ill for several years, had
expended all of her means to pay for medi-
cine. At last the doctors gave him up and
said he must die. He suffered so terribly
with rheumatism that he could not be
moved. One day some one told her about
the Mount Lebanon Shakers. The evidence
of the curative powers of their Extract Of
Roots was so convincing that she pawned
the poor boys clothes to buy bottle of the
remedy (>iegerS Syrup, but now she feels
proud that SIT did so. for it was the means
of curing her son. The Shakers say that
this is the result of indigestion and that the
medicine cured the dyspepila, and that the
rheumatism was only symptom Of the
real disease.

For an American to marry in Mexico is
a somewhat serious business. He must be
three times married, twice in Spanish and
once in English, besides having notice Of
his intention OF marriage placed on bull
letln board for twenty days before the
ceremony. This ia the law. The public
notice can be gotten around by the pay
ment of sum of money, but residence Of
one month is necessary. The three cere-
monica are the contract of marriage, the
civil mnrrlage-the only marriage recog-
nized by law since 1S5S-and the usual but
not obligatory church service. The first
two must take place before the judge, and
IN the presence OF ut least four witnesses
and the American Consul. The civil mar
riage is the legal form of marriage. These
ceremonies are necessarily in Spanish.
Most weddings are confirmed by church
service. Lille would be altogether too
short il the Mormons were compelled to go
through all this ceremony.

feet tracked the ground. They were swim

not fit for dog. They had jaws fractured
and eyes extinguised and limbs shot away.
Thousands OF them cried for water az they
lay dying on the field of battle the night
after the battle, and got it not. They were
homesiek, and received no message from
their loved ones. They died IN barns, in
bushes, IN dilcles, the buzzards OF the
summer heat the only attendants on their
Obseqnie es. No one but the infinite God
who knows everything knows the ten

while negotiations were pending for this
consolidation, one Charles Fvers, Of Bow
ling Green, Ohio, formerly connected
with the Bowling Green Sentinel, came to

cash into the Post and take charge of it's
financial management. Evers thought lie
could make The Post financial success,
and being in ordinately ambitious, he
imagined he could come to the front as
a politician and M anipulaior Of affairs.
Like Josh Whiicomb, who went into
Boslon with an OK team load of pumpkins
he proposed TO become n factor In the
regulation OF the city. We congratulate
Toledo that we have escaped the Eyers in

FINANCES.

The common ninss al the people and but
few oil our Statesmen have made any effort
TO solve the financial problem OF the ma.
iion. Congress and the Secretary Of the
Treasury have generally failed TO compete
with Wall Street, the Board of Trade,
spcculators aud gamblers. The Bears aud
Bulls have beloved and growled over
greenbacks, silver and gold, Till the people
have lost their wits, and look upon the
fiuctnation Of market prices In stolid
amazement. Fortunes of years OF accumu-
lation are wrecked in tew seconds, In
'6i our treasury was empty. In 81 IL wns
full to overlooking. During the period Of
twenty years spectators and gnmblers
cheated the government out OF more tlnn
a billion Of dollars. AT the close Of the
great Rebellion the debt OF the nation was
nearly two billions. To meet the expcn-
ses Of the war, Congress adopted the credit
System, and Issued seven-thirty and five
twenty bonds and Legal Tender notes and
Greenbacks. The 1905 were promissory
notes 10 be paid in 80 years at per cent.
interest. The 500 nots to be paid in 20
years at 5 per cent. interest. The legal
tenders were promissory notes 10 be used
instead OF gold for certain length Of time
till paid by the government in gold.
Greenbacks were promissory notes, paya-
ble in gold on demand. These pIomissory
notes are called currency and money. But
strictly speaking they are not money.
They are merely promissory notes worth
only the ink and paper on which they are
written, unless the government has the
gold and silver with which to pay them
on maturity or on demand. Tue Green
back party held that Congress could make
a Greenback bonafed dollar just rs well
as it could make SO many ounces OF gold, a
dollar. But that theory has exploded.
So many ounces of gold is the standard
value OF dollar the world over. So many
ounces OF silver and copper. No mans
promissory note, no nations promissory
note is dollar, or can be made dollar.
II Is merely promise put on paper to
pay uUllur, estimated ny common
worldwide standard. Then, the good
policy OF an honest government void be
to keep gold and silver and copper enough
in its treasury 10 pay Its debts ss they be
come due. Let as much pure material be
put into each dollar as the standard re-
guires, no more, no less. The Congress Of
the U. S. has adopted the aforesaid policy
10 call IN its notes, pay them in gold
or its equivalent as fast as they mature
In consequence of this policy We have the
beat currency in the world.
During the late war those who took the
government notes for the face value o
them lost so per cent, because banker.
and speculators had the gold and woulc
not let the government have enough Il
pay lis debts unless it paid a premium o
fifty cents on each dollar. The soldiers
took greenbacks or notes which banker
and speculators would cash ut the rate o

How Wealth Is Created.

In no era of the world.has wealth been
created so rapidly as during the last thirty
years. With our iorefatbers, land was the
foundation of all riches, but in this modern
era corporate ownership develops the larg-
est accumulations. The telephone compa-
MES furnish case in point. One OF these,
for instance, was organized with a capital
of 81 100000. The hundred dollar shares
at first sold below $25, but they rapidly
advanced to 81, 900. Then an additional
$9,000,0O0 was put on the market, and
subsequently the capitalization was in
creased TO $20,O00,000. The hundred
dollar shares OF this company are now
quoted at $175 which means that the pos
SCISSOR of one Of the original shares for
which $25 was paid has not only received
in dividends many times the amount oi
the purchase-money, but actually owns
stock to the amount of $500, or $l4O
tor every dollar originally invested
There are quite number of telephone
companies in which the stockholders have
done equally we'll. All over the country
will be found rich men who have made
their fortunes IN corporate Investments Of
