Endorsed BY The. s Govern
ment.

The efficacy of Dr. Leslie E.
Keeley's Double Choloride of
Gold Remedies has been 80 pub
licly acknowledged and thoroughly
recognized throughout the civilized
world, that the recent endorsement
by the Government removes all
questions of doubt as to their
virture and genuineness. On
February 13, 1892, General VIM
B. Franklin, President Of the Board
of Managers of the National
Military Homes for Disabled
Soldiers and Sailors, authorized a
contract with The Leslie r. Keeley
Co for the use of DR.. Keeley's
Remediesin the seven Natinal
and twenty-one State Homes in the
United States.
General Franklin, in a lette,
regarding this contract and DR.
Keeley's Remedies, speaks EN-,
phatically of "the great good the
future has in store for the un.
fortunate victims of Alcoholism,
giving personal thanks to DR.

They Stole a Locomotive.

Chicago Ledger.
"The most successful, and at the
same time, most unique civil.
service examination I know of,
occurred during the war;" said S.
G. DeLand, of the examining
board at the treasury, to a newspa-
per man. "The Confederacy was
very much in need of a railway
locomotive in order to operate
their supply system. 1t was in
1854 and they had not the means
to buy an engine, so the invaria-
BILE alternative arose-steal one.
A band of one hundred men was
selected from Lees army and
placed under the command of a
big six-foot-four Georgian, who
had been foreman Of a stone
quarry and was more or less
skilled in the use of derricks, etc.
He took his men up in Maryland
and they tore up a section of the
Baltimore and Ohio railway track
tagged the next train and with
nothing on earth save plenty of
rope, those one hundred men
carried the locomotive ffty-two
miles over hills, across streams,
through bogs and woods, until
they struck a line the Confederacy
had built. Then they ran the engine
down to Virginia. When the
president of the Baltimore and
Ohio heard of the feat he couldn't
believe it. He went out and per-
sonally inspected the scene; went
over the route and declared it the
most wonderful feat of engineering
ever accomplished. After the war
he delegated a man TO find the
leader of the band. He was located
in Georgia. Mr.. Garrett sent for
him and on the strength of that
single feat made him roadmas!er
of. his entire system of railroads.
"Any man that can spick aup an
engine with fishing lines and
carry it over mountain has pas
sed his examination with me-
said he.

NO BLANKS IN THIS COMPETITIONS.

This is competition of rather an
unusual nature. It's common to offer
prizes for the best story, or picture, or
architectural plan, all the competitors
risking the loss of their labor and the
successful one merely selling his for
the amount of the prize. But the Press
Claims Company's offer is something
entirely different. Each person is
asked merely to help himself, and the
one who helps himself to the best adj
vantage is to be rewarded for doing it.
The prize is only stimulus to do
something that would be we'll worth
doing without it. The architect whose
competitive plan fora club house
on certain corner is not accepted has
spent his labor on something Of very
little use to him. But the person who
patents a simple and useful device in
the Press Claims Company's competi-
ton need not worry if he fail to secure
the prize. He has substantial result
to show for his work-one that will
command its value in the market at
any time.
The plain man who uses any article
in his daily work ought to know bet
ter how to improve it than the
mechanical expert who studies it only
from the theoretical point of view.
Get rid of the idea that an improve
ment can be too simple to be worth
patenting. The simpler the better. The.
person who best succeeds in combining
simplicity and popularity, will get the
Press Claims Compay's twenty-five
hundred dollars.
The responsibility of this company
may be judged from the fact that its
stock is neld by abont three hundred
of the leading newspapers of the
United States.

Double Chloride of Gold Rene
dies, for. the cure of the liquor,
opium, morphine, and tobacco dis
eases, and Neurasthenia, we warn
the public that these remedies are
used by no institution or santa
rum in the United States except
those established by our company,
under lie uniform name Of 'The
Keeley Institute"
all others claiming to use DR..
Keeley's Remedies or formula are
frauds and impostors.
The Kelley Institutes establish
ed in various parts of the United
States now number ninety, with
three in Europe, where the Keeley
Treatment is administered and the
Kelley Remedies sold. We, how
ever, caution all to examine well
and know that they are dealing
with genuine representatives., au-
thorized by US, before taking treat
ment or purchasing remedies.
The misleading establishments
use the name of "Bi-C Chloride of

sufficiently to know that they are
imitators. This is matter of pub

Let the Rich Bear Their Share
s of Burdens.

BY A. 6. Hsygood, In independent.
One@off the occasions of dis
content among the masses of
working people in the United
States to-day, say nothing of
European countries, is the firm
conviction poor people have that
the very rich do not bear their
share of the burdens of govern
ment.
The General Government derives
its income from a tariff on i'm
ported goods and the tax, collected
by the internal revenue depart
ment, from certain domestic
products, chiefly tobacco and
liquors.
What proportion of the money
the tariff laws collect is paid by
the laboring class, is more than
this writer knows-he suspects
they pay most of it; there are so
many poor people. Experts could
give rational estimation if they
took the pains. That the laboring
people pay. most of the internal
revenue cannot be questioned;
and this is no honor to them. If
the laboring people really knew
how much they pay in both forms
of taxation they would at first be
stunned; then they would ex-
plode. When they do, 1T will be
no small matter for discussion at
dinner tables-between courses.
When it comes to State, county,
and municipal taxes, workingmen
believe sincerely and profoundly
that they pay more than their
share. While they believe this their
discomfort abides; while they
believe it every other occasion for
misunderstanding and conflict
between capital and labor is
