The Democratic papers that are pointing
TO the action Of the Senate on the free coin
age bill as showing the incompetency of the
Republicans to deal with financial questions
should study the vote of that body. AS
matter Of fact majority of the Republicans
were opposed to the bill, while all but three
Democrats voted for 1t. As we said yester
pay, the question is more a sectional than
party one, yet the number of Republicans
who have not been carried away by the sill
yer craze is good deal larger than the num-
Der OF Democrats that have not ''succumbed.
The same Is true Of the House. There the
Tree coinage men have got to depend very
largely on Democratic votes to carry their
pet measure. 1t is very much with this sill
yer hallucination as with the greenback
mania. Some men of both parties are car
ried away by it, but as was the case with
the latter, a great many more Democrats
have become its victims than Republicans.
Massachusetts, papers are devoting some
space to notices of an insect pest which is
making itself unpleasantly conspicuous
throughout that State. The Lowell Courier
says:

sects, and so called because while nesting on the
grass stalks II covers itself with a viscous sub
stance resembling spittle, Is again abundant in
some localities Last year 1t seemed to be widely
distributed, and this season in Chelmsford there
are fields almost white with this insect. il seems
to favor ground that has not recently been culti-
Vated; fortunately these in ects are seldom
abundant more than two seasons in succession
The pest Is In no way related to the grasshopper
tnough Its appearance has led many to believe
that II belongs to that family.
1t is the embryonic form of the brown
tree-hopper bearing the same relation to that
creature that caterpillar does to a butterfly.
The hopper is never abundant enough in this
State to work serious damage. although trees
riddled by their ovapositors are frequently
seen. In the ''spfttle insect" shape it is of
no damage to anybody, being simply in a
chrysalid state.

The more the Senate's free coinage bill is
studied the worse 1t looks. The bill provides
practically for the flooding of the country
with silver right off, not gradually, but all
at once. When man brings his silver bullion
to the mint under this bill, he will not have
to wait for his dollars until they are coined,
but he is to be Immediately furnished with
certificates representing the amount Of dol
lars which can be made from his bullion, and
these certificates are to be legal tender in
payment for all debts. This is silver mad
ness In its EXTREMIST form.

Wee refer to cases of suffering from
all classes OF Chronic Diseases as re-
duced as the following case of COnsump-
tiOn, or Inflammation OF the Stomach:
MRS. ID. j. SMITH, Huntington. Mass.
Two Years ago her life was despaired of having
been reduced from 125 to 81 pounds, and could
not retain any kind Of solid or liquid food at her
command, and she tried everything her physician
ordered, and was under medical treatment for the
last nine years, declining all the time Her last
physician recommended Murdock's Liquid Food,
and for the first three months she took only one
teaspoonful at a time in buttermilk. Then her
stomach became stronger, and she took it with
milk for year. This last year she has been able
to take with it raw eggs daily, and now is chewing
rare steak and swallowing the Juice; also takes
an orange daily. Any solid food even now dis
tresses her and makes her dizzy, but less so every
month; but she feels confident she viii be able to
eat nutritious food in few weeks, as sne Is
gaining so rapidly ia strength aud weight. Her
present weight is lit pounds, and she is
able to do all of her homework alone.
We are confident II she had followed the instruc
tons of our label two years ago, that she would
have been in better health twenty-one months ago
than she Is.
AT this date, March l, 1890, she advises us Of
her history, and also that she is taking three ia
blespoonfuls OF Liquid food daily.
WHAT ARE THE
RESULTSg
