A Good Thing to Keep on Hand.
From the Troy (Kan.) Chief.


Some years ago, we were very much
subject to severe spells of cholera NOR
bus and now when we feel any OF the
symptoms that usually precede that
ailment, such dis sickness at the stomach,
diarrhea, ETC., we become scary. We
have found Chamberlain's Remedy the
very best thing to straighten one out in
such cases, and always keep it about.
1t is somewhat similar to the usual
cholera cures, but seems to contain in
gradients that render it more pleasant
to take, and that do their work more
quickly. Sheriff Devereux tells us that
he is subject to cholera morbus, and
recently felt spell coming on, when he
obtained bottle of Chamberlain's Collie,
Cholera and DiarrhGa Remedy, and
two doses made him all right. We are
not writing this for pay testimonial,
but to let our readers know what is a
good thing to keep handy in the house.

feeling in the stock market today, notw1th-
standing that the bank statement is expected
to be unfavorable tomorrow. Dealings in rail

by the renewed sensation in Chicago Gas, in
which transactions ran up to a very large
figure, while most pronounced strength was
displayed by the stock.

The Gold in a Gold Dollar.

Director Leach, of the mint, thus
writes to the Philadelphia North Amer
lean: THE amount of pure silver in
the standard silver dollar has not been
changed since we first began coming.
The quantity of pure gold to the dollar,
as fixed by the act of 1892, was "a. IS
grains, the ratio in coinage being Is to 1.
BY the act of June 2S, 1884, the pure
gold was reduced from 24.7 to %. 20
grains to the dollar, the ratio between
gold and silver in coinage being 1 to
16. OO2. BY the act of January IS, 1887,
the fneness of the gold coins was in
creased about three-fourths of one thou
sandth by changing from standard of
.s99225 to 300, which increased the pure
gold in dollar from 1920 to %. %
grains, at which it has remained up to
the present time. The ratio between
the two metals in coinage was fixed by
this act at to 15.9Ss, at which it still
remains"
