Pneumonia

At no time in the history OF the coun-
try has pneumonia been so prevalent as
during the winter months OF the last
Two wears. In times past common
cold was not considered az all serious,
out Of late years the great tendency Of
colds to result in pneumonia has made
peoD.e apprehenSive. The trouble is
that colds are not always properly
treated. No preparation containing
opium, wild cherry or chloroform
should be used, rs they have tendency
20 dry 10 q cold, whereas it should be
loosened aud the lungs relieved. 1t
has been observed that when Chamber
laln's Cough Remedy is used the cold
never results in pneumonia. The rea-
son is that this remedy stimulates the
mucous membrane which lines the
throat and lungs, to q healthy action,
causes g free expectOration, throwing
of the poisonous matter, and counter
acts any tendency toward pneumonia.

THE CoINAGE QUESTION.

The Chicago Herald is authority IOI
the statement that since the Inaugural
ton of President CLEVELAND eight
years ago the currency Of the country
has been increased by more than $780,
10000 or fully % per cent. In the
meantime the population Of the coun-
try has increased probably not more
than IS per cent. The expansion is
more than accounted for, the Herald
believes, by the emission Of silver paper,
for the amount Of silver certificates has
increased more than 5000, 100000, and
the notes TO the amount Of more than
SIPS. 600, OJO issued in payment for silver
bullion are outstanding. The initiation
did not force gold out Of the country
until after the passage of the silver
purchase act of 1890, though ii pre-
vented us from increasing our stock OF
gold. But since the passage OF that
act. which largely increased the rate Of
imitation, we have been losing gold rap
idly. The result is that confidence is
undermined, and both home and for
elgn investors have become shy of such
Of our securities as are not specifically
payable in gold
This is the situation exactly described,
but the HeraId's remedy for ia
prompt aud judicious use Of the power
to sell bonds, for that would practically
demonstrate the resolute purpose Of
the new administration to maintain the
gold standard" in conjunction with
repeal OF the sherman silver purchase
act-while 10 might do as . makeshift
and would temporarily restore conf
dence, would not be cure for the lop-
sidedneSs of our currency. Nothing
will restore to us a sound and sufficient
currency but the full reconciliation Of
silver. Gov. BoIEs, Of Iowa, 10 q letter
% Judge VAN WAGEN, Of Sioux City,
discusses the subject at length and rea-
sonably. Inorder to bridge over the great
disparity In the present marketvaiue Of
gold and silver he holds that the causes
that have brought it about must be re-
moved. AS the denomination OF silver
was one Of these causes, the remonitiza-
ton Of silver is, OF course, Imperative.
As TO the other principal cause, the
largely increased production OF silver,
as compared with gold, since 1878, it
can only be obviated by increasing to
some extent the quantity Of silver in
silver dollar, not that q gold dollars
worth OF silver bullion should be put
into a silver dollar, "but to an extent
which. with the added value of silver
caused by free coinage, would make
gold and silver coins Of the same de-
nomination freely interchangeable as
standards Of value"
There is much wisdom in Gov. BoIEs'
suggestion, though, Of course, here
steps in the natural difficulty OF estab-
fishing parity between gold and sill
YER. Their comparative value has been
fixed at different ratios at different
periods since the beginning Of the Gov
eminent, ranging from to 10 to TO l6
and remaining at to 1898 from 1887
TO 1873, but it is certain there is moth
ing in these precedents TO prevent the
adoption Of any other ratio that might
be deemed eXpedient.
The main point is to enhance the
bullion value Of silver, and certainly
nothing can be done toward that end
until silver is fully remonetized.
