AS a matter Of justice to ourselves and to
the reputation of DR.. Leslie +. keeley's
Double Chloride of Gold remedies, for the
cure of the liquor, opium, morphine and
tobacco diseases and Neurasthenia, We warn
the public that these remedies are used by
/ NJ institution or sanitarium in the United
: States except THOSE established by OuI COM
pany under the uniform name Of "The
Kelley Institute"
All others claiming to use orr remedies
are frauds and imposters.
We have now sixty keeley Institutes eS-
tabiished in various parts of the United
States where the Kelley treatment is adj
ministered and the keeley remedies sold.
| We, however, caution all to examine we'll
and know that they are dealing with genuine
representatives, authorized by us, before
taking the treatment or purchasing remedies.
The fraudulent establishments use the name
of "Bi-Chloride of Gold" or similar titles.
The newspapers do not discriminate suffi-
ciently to know that they are imitators, and
so put down all accidents occurring at such
establishments as being brought about by
the Kelley treatment. This is a matter OF
much concern to US, hence this warming.
Respectfully yours,

The Kelley institute at Greensboro, n. c.,
is the only one in the state, and all repre-
sensations that there is in the state any cure
that is Identical with, or the same as, the
Kelley Double Chloride of Gold Cure are
malicious, false, and made for the purpose Of
dcceiving. We learn with indignant regret
that such claim is being made, and feeling

disastrous to those who are deceived thereby,
we sound this warning.

The Old Soldiers Dollars.

Phila. Times.
Representative Harter, of Ohio,
has taken alarm at the evident de-
termination of the free coinage rep
resentatives to force seventy cent
dollar on the country. He has
urged the Grand Army of the Re-
public to take action in the matter,
as the reduction of our currency to
silver basis means the scaling
down of ever soldiers pension thirty
per cent. in purchasing power.
There is force in Representative
Harter's suggestion. It is not to be
wondered at that soldiers and sol
diers' widows who are in receipt of a
small fixed income from this source
do not care to have this reduced one
third at single stroke.
But why should not all the great
army of wage-workers and those
who are compelled to live upon
small incomes take the alarm as we'll
as the old soldiers and soldiers
widows? The man who earns dol
lar day is entitled to dollar worth
hundred cents, and he is certainly
very foolish to stand idly by and
see law enacted that will make his
dollar worth only seventy cents.
And yet that is just what would hap
pen If free coinage bill should be.
come law.
1t is probably true that there is
no danger of free coinage law at
this session, but the silver producers
aim at free coinage ultimately, and
it will be just as well for all wage
workers and those possessed of small
fixed incomes to look the fact in the
face. They have quite as much at
stake as the old soldiers in main
tanning hundred-cent dollar, and
should make themselves heard in
unmistakeable protest.
That Brother Bland should take
exception to Mr.. Harter's letter is
not surprising, but his angry de-
nunciation of it as "a buldozing
document" indicates that Brother
Bland is no more reasonable as
parliam ntarian than he is as u finan-
cier. The performance in the House
yesterday suggests that little bull
doing would not be misapplied to
the silver cranks.

Witt volunteered to strike the first
attitude and the by-standers made

the undermining of the contestant.
Music was called, and was respond
ed to by-"Old Zip Coon," and the
Attorney with his hat in his hand
struck the double shuttle at a two
forty gate. The audience was much
impressed with the graceful style in
which Mr.. Dewitt performed his
part. He was encored, but failed to
respond. Mr.. Brown was then
called, who was somewhat surprised
at the nimble step of his oppon-
ent, and conceded that he wasn't

ly awarded TO the graceful Towanda
lawyer.

Society Nonsense.

There is good deal of childish
hubbub just now, in circles that
ought to have outgrown childish
years, about who shall be admitted
to or debarred from what is called
society. Heartburning and jealousy
and splen find their food in the
question as to who has a right in
this set or in that set, whether Mrs.
So-and.so has claim to the re-
cognition of the self selected ex-
clusives, and whether Mr.. So-and-so
shall be accepted as the arbiter of
drawing room destinies.
And, after all, what does it amount
to! Is it worth the strife, the ex.
ertion. and, last, but not least, the
expense I? Those probably could
answer best who have had expert
ence in the turmoil for social dis
tinction. To the locker OH at
Vanity Fair it certainly seems that
the game is hardly equivalent to the
candle. The successful society man
or woman is seldom of much ac-
count Tor anything else. They leave
no substantial mark in the way of
honor for themselves or usefulness
of mankind. They futter for while
among the butterflies of fashion and
then disappear in oblivion.
The best, the most desirable
society is that of a happy and con-
tented home. The sweet smile OF
genuine welcome at the working
mans fireside is worth more than all
the polished deceit of the gilded
salon, and there can be no better
social circle than that around the
family table, whether in the poor
mans comfortable dwelling or the
mansions of the respectable rich.-

A large number of petitions have
been sent to Congress recently to
take some action to counteract the
pernicious effects of the cigarette.
From clippings selected from the
public press it is shown that over
one hundred deaths of young men,
mostly under sixteen years. were
from the effects of smoking the
paper wrapped cigaretts. Should
not this statement alone cause men
to think and act, when their actions
could prove effective ? Let Con-
gress suppress the evil.
