What Am I TO Do?

The symptoms Of biliousness are unhap-
PLY too we'll known. They differ in differ
ent individuals to some extent. A bilious
man is seldom breakfast eater. Too fire.
quently, alas, he has an excellent appetite
for liquids but none for solids of morning.
His tongue will hardly bear inspection at
any time; if it is not white and furred, it is
rough, at all events.
The digestive system is wholly out of
order, and diarrhea or constipation may be a
symptom or the two may alternate. There
are often hemorrhoids or even loss of blood.
There may be giddiness and often headache
and acidity or fatulence and tenderness in
the pit Of the stomach. To correct all this,
# not effect cure, try Green's August
Flower; it costs but trife, and thousands
attest it's efficiency.

JEFFERSON ON THE TARIFF.

Thomas jefferson good many
years ago wrete as follows on the
tariff:
FiAt-We should encourage
home manufacture to the extent OF
our own consumption of everything
OF which we raise the raw material.
second-Internal revenue taxes,
covering our land with offices and
openin. our doors to intrusion,
should be abolished. The excise
Law is undemocratic and pernicious
in its results. 1t was an error for
o,,r constitution to authorize such
taxation ami for Congress to act on
the authorization.
Third-If there is a surplus OF
revenue, and it is impossible to APP
ply it to the extinction OF the pub
tic debt, in no contingency should
we suppress the impost and give
an advantage to foreign over do
mestic manufactures.
Fourth-The national economy
consists IN purchasing nothing for
eiyn where an equivalent OF domes-
tic manufacture can be obtained,
without regard to difference Of
price.

The New York Reform Club
has raised $50, GOO, which it will
use in disseminating Free-trade
literature.
AT Rockingham, VT, twenty
six men who voted for "Tip. and
IT," in 1910 will vote for HARRISON
and Morton.
At least three New York Rep
resentatives will not return to Con-
gress, namely: Perry Belmont,
Felix Campbell and S. v. White.
-Horsemen in New York OF the
Democratic procliyities put red
bandana bonnets upon their trotters
when speeding them on the
avenues.
Henry Watterson says that the
election is to be sshotly contested
and admits that it .may be very
close.'' That is as direct "give-
away" as should be expected from
Democrat.
1t is the same as settled that
Indiana will go Republican. This
reduces the doubtful States to three
Connecticut, New York and New
Jersey. If Cleveland loses either
of them he is defeated.
If Free-trade England were to
do the voting, President Cleveland
would be unanimously reelected,
because, as the London Daily Times
Saws. s.the conflict is between Free
Trade and Protection, and nothing
more"
When Cincinnati gave Gen.
Harrison, the Wing candidate, a
reception October l, 1S40, the
Gazette announced: "sIn order to
afford the hands in our office an OPP
portunity to participate in the ex-
ercises of the convention to-day We
shall issue no paper tomorrow.
When Samuel j. Randall
stumped New York and Connecti-
cut, in 1884, for the Democracy. he
told his hearers that in the event
of Mr.. Cleveland's election the par
tv would not disturb the tariff. He
will not tell them anything like
that this year. MIR. Randall can
not tell lie.
