licans in Congress to reduce the bar
barous tariff taxation and pass
measure to relieve working people en-.
gagged in wooden, iron and other "pro-
'tected" industries. Bnt the Anglo
American "rings" controlling iron and
steel, and the Anglo -Frauco-Ameriean
rings controlling the manufacture
and importations OF fine worsted
goods and cassimeres said, "Oh! no.
If you reduce the tariff the poor Ia
borer will fall to the lowest depths of
pauperism."
BY fraudulent representations and
barefaced lying the tariff iniquity of
1888 was made to impoverish the
masses 30 that few might be en-
riched. And the frauds and falsifiers
who went to Washington and bull
dozed Congress when that measure
was passed are the same "disinter-
ested gentlemen" who now shout -

What is Being Done for the Orphans.

Rev. L. B. Payne, Superintendent
of the Methodist Orphan Home, Ma
con, Ga, writes: We have had a great
improvement in the health Of our
children by the use of Swift's Specific
We had among the children some who
had scrofula-notably ore case in
which it was
UNMIsTAKABLY HEREDITARY.
We got some of Switt's Specific and
gave it to this case, and in a short
while it was cured sound and well. 1t
was as bad a case, l think, as ever
saw, and had been under excellent
physicians with no permanent benefit.
We have been giving it to all the chill
dren as health tonic. We have four
children and one seamstress who, for
years, have suffered intensely every
spring with erysipelas, and though
they have been taking Swift's Specific
only in small doses as a health tonic,
they, all, without exception, passed
through this spring without a touch
of this complaint.
A young lady of the institution, who
has been with us for years, has been
troubled with a most aggravated rash
ever since she was child. She tried
all the known remedies that are pre-
scribed for it with no benefit; but she
has been cured by taking Swift's Spe-
cific, and has no return OF the trouble.

Below we give from an exchange
the best answer we have yet seen to
the question, What is a gentleman?
Every young man should cut ii out
and paste it in his hat for chart.
You may not, in this wicked world,
come up to the ideal, but you will be
better for having made the effort. II
may save you from becoming one of
those painted Lizards OF society who
pay no regard to the principles that
constitute true man and a gentle
man, but base their claims to the IT,
tie OF gentleman on musk and civet,
mental and physical dudeism and
and perhaps filthy lucre; "a gentle
man is just gentleman no more, no
less diamond polished that was first
diamond in the rough. A gentle
man is gentle. A gentleman is mod.
est. A gentleman is courteous. A
gentleman is generous. A gentleman
is slow to take offense, as being one
that never gives it. A gentleman ia
GLOW to surmise evil as being one that

Francis O'Reilly, the wel,known
livery man of No. 10 Prince street, New
York, says Of Allcock's Porous Pas-
ters:
"For the last forty-two years have
been engaged in the livery and hack.
ing business. am greatly aided by
my four boys. We are much exposed
to the weather, and we have found
Allcock's Plasters Of very great service.
We use them as chest protectors, plac-
ing one on the chest and one on the
pit OF the stomach. They not only
ward off the cold, but act rs a tonic.
We are frequently affected with
rheumatism, kinks in the back, and
pains in the side but one of two of
Allcock's Plasters quickly cures us.
My wife and daughter have been
using them for weak back and think
the world Of them. l have now been
using them for twenty years, and al.
