Something for the Nev Year.


The world renowned success of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, and their
continued popularity for over third of
century as stomachic, is scarcely
more wonderful than the welcome that
greets the annual appearance of Hos
letters Almanac. This valuable medical
treatise is published by the Hostetter
Company, Pittsburgh, Pa, under their
own immediate supervision, employing
60 hands in that department. They are
running II months in the year on this
work, and the issue of same for 1892
will be more than ten millions, printed
in the English, German, French, Welsh,
Norwegian, Swedish, Holland, Bohemian
and Spanish languages. Refer to copy
of it for valuable and interesting reading
concerning health, and numerous testi-
monials as to the efficacy of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, amusement, varied in
formation, astronomical calculations and
chronological items, &C., which can be
depended on for correctness. The AL
manac for 1892 can be obtained free of
cost, from druggists and general country
dealers in all parts of the country. 3-5t
AN Indian tomahawk was found in

the head of the tomahawk was ten inches
in thickness. 1t is estimated that it had

A WARNING TO LEGISLATORS.

Cleveland World.
If there is anything that the Ohio
Legislature, at its coming session, should
keep its fingers especially out of it is the
temperance question. There is no oc-
casion for any more temperance laws
There are vastly more laws on our
statute books already than are enforced
or seem likely to be enforced. But if
there were not already sufficiency this
is an inopportune time to meddle with
the question. The Prohibitionists are
fighting the Republican party as hard
as they know how and certainly it is
not proper that the suggestions of cranks
for solving the liquor evil should at this
time receive any attention whatever.

DISREGARD OF HUMAN LIFE.

Pittsburgh Commercial Gazette.
It is said that in no civilized country
is there such reckless and criminal dis
regard of human life as in the United
States. 1t is manifested in so many
ways that it would be tiresome to recap
itulate them all. The more familiar ex-
amples are found in the management of
great manufacturing concerns. in which
the work Is more or less hazardous, in
the operation of coal mines, in which
the lives of hundreds of men are in con-
slant peril through neglect of the most
ordinary precautions; and in the running
of railways, through neglect to procure
the best appliances for saving the lives
of brakeman and other employees.
Statistics gathered by the inter State
Commerce Commission show that last
year, in coupling and uncoupling cars,
there were S,210 accidents, of which 269
proved fatal. 1t is estimated that 80
per cent. of these were caused by the
use of the dangerous link and pin
couple-s, which are still used besause
they are cheap. Last year 6 ,320 persons,
including passengers, were killed on the
railroads, and 29,034 were injured. This
is a frightful record, and when it is
known that hundreds have been killed
and thousands MANNED through bad
management aud defective equipment
it becomes the duty of Congress to take
such action as will compel the carrying
companies to use the best appliances
that can be had, without regard to cost.
The plea of economy should not weigh
a feather when human life is at stake.
BOOMING FREE COINAGE FOR REVENUE
ONLY.
Cleveland Leader
Mr.. Ivan C. Michels, of Washington,
d. c., who has done considerable work
in the interest of the free coinage of
silver, has written a caustic letter to the
editor of the Engineering and Mining
Journal, of New York. The letter was
called out by a charge that Mr.. Michels
was a silver boomer "for revenue only"
Mr.. Michels admits the truth of the
charge and says he is actuated by the
same motives that impel all the free
coinage men. He declares that the sole
object of the agitation is to get 81 29
per ounce for fine silver. He charges
that the principal member of the INA
tional Executive Committee" organized
a Western Silver Mine Company of
which he is the President. The com
pany capitalized the concern for $l0,-
100000 and put in S47,700 of that
amount. The prospectus of this COM
pany shows that it costs but 125 cents
to produce an ounce of fine silver, and
even at the prevailing market price of
the product dividends amounting to
$2,000,000 per year are earned on the
original investment of $47, ZOO. Mr.
Michels asks if anybody supposes that
the advocates of free coinage are work
ing for glory. OF course not. Free
coinage of the nature proposed by the
Western silver mine owners would in
crease the dividends of the particular
mining company to which he refers to
something like $3,000,000 per year,
which would be about 5000 per cent. on
the original investment. The poor mine
