dOrsed in the platform Of the peoples party
at Cincinnati, is complete and wonder
fully clear and comprehensive statement

standard work on that subject. Hence
forth no speaker or editor can afford to dis
cuss this question without first giving this
book careful perusal. Mr.. Scott Is the
best qualified man in the states to present
this subject. He has studied it in all its
phases, and he writes honestly, calmly,
graphically and convincingly. 1t is book
for the multitude as well as for the phil
Osopher; 1t Is book that everyone should
read; no one can afford not to read 1t. The
fact that rs its pages went to press they
passed under the eagle eye of. G. Hubbard
adds immensely to its value and will place
its utter reliability as to facts and figures
absolutely beyond question. It is the
most valuable book of the decade. Well
printed on good paper, over one hundred
pages; also diagrams showing how to
build, etc. Price % cents; address G.. II.
