Come to the Rescue.

As surely as any known effect fol-
lows cause, just so surely will dis
ease of the kidneys succeed their in
activity, If that inaction be not
promptly remedied. Come to the
rescue with Hostetter's Stomach Bit
ters, which gives healthful impulse
to the action of both the kidneys and
the bladder, without exciting them,
like an unmcdicated stimulant. Rem
dered active by this genial diuretic
and tonic, they perform their func-
tions thoroughly and regularly, re-
moving from the system impurities
which beget rheumatism, dropsy,
gravel, Bright's disease, diabetes and
catarrh of the bladder. The contrac-
ton of either ore of these formidable
maladies is the penalty exacted by ma
ture for Indifference to that plain
warning-sluggish action of the kid
neys. When this exists, not a mo-
ment should be lost in the use of the
remedy indicated. Bear in mind that
the bitters will relieve with equal
prompitude disorders of the stomach,
liver, bowels and nervous system, and
cure or prevent malarial complaints.

RESOURCES OF COLORADO.
Another View of the Situation in the
Great Silver Producing State.

Great Silver Producing State.
Hon. Henry r. Wolcott, of Denver,
brother of the Senator of that name,
is far from being one of the number
of Colorado's calamity shriekers. In
recent interview he stated that the
Denver address did not express the
views of the people of Colorado. He
said it was quite natural that they
should desire to get as high price as
possible for their silver "but we can
not expect, and of course it cannot be,
that silver should be maintain
ed at a higher standard of value than
is consistent with a sound financial
system, and by this mean one that
will command the confidence of the
entire people"
Furthermore, Mr.. Wolcott desires
it to be understood that Colorado is
not wholly or even mainly dependent
upon its silver mines. "If every sill
yer mine in Colorado should be clos
ed" he says, 81 undertake to say that
there are other resources in our state
that would occupy every citizen with
in her borders-yes, and million be-
sides-and that she will even then
prosper far in advance of any other
western state" He says that the
state has great agricultural resources;
extensive oil territory; unlimited de-
posits of iron and coal, including an
thracIte, which is shipped to all the
country from Omaha to San Francis
co; great stone quarries, the product
of which is used as far east as New
York; productive gold, lead and cop
! per mines, and extensive wool grow
ing interest. The agitators and ca
lamity howlers who represent that
Colorado and all the nhabitantsthere-
Of will 60 to the demnition bow-wows
unless all the evils of a deprecated
money standard are inflicted upon
the country are hurting the interests
of the state more than all the "gold
bugs" of two continents; They, more
than all other influences, precipitated
the wild and senseless panic which
has closed so many substantial Den
yer banks and inflicted injuries upon
the city and state from which the re-
covery will be slow and painful. If
the people of Colorado would polite
ally strangle a few dozen of their
Waites they would render great
service to themselves as well as to the
entire country.

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
ative; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being well informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

ex-prisoners, and designating the spot
where they slept The suggestion, says

various parts of the building, and they
form an interesting feature. One bears
the name of Brigadier General Neal
Dow, the great temperance advocate of

the spot where Colonel Thomas e. Rose
slept. Another bears the name of Gen

officers that were held as hostages and
condemned to be shot at one time in re-

matter was effected. Captain Francis

sAPIENT SAYINGS.

SOME men are, like blotting-paper;
they may bear the impress of hun
dred good things and yet they are worth
less.
IT is oftener the case, that what a
man forgets educates him more than
what he remembers.
If AMMAN could live n thousand years
he would probably spend the last fifty
fretting over what he might have done
in the previous wasted time.
DIRECTLY one enters q room there is a
sense either of cheer or the reverse.
After leaving the apartment, one may
not be able to tell how it was furnished,
but everyone knows the effect pro-
duced.
THERE is no happiness. in the world
equal to that of blessing others. Not
only by giving money to the needy, help
to the sick, food to the hungry, is this
blessing comprised; we gain it as we
give it, by sympathy, by affection, by
seeing that which is best in our friends,
and shutting our eyes to that which is
WORST, by taxing Joy IN their good
things even when our own portion is
acant and poor.
: Too MANY children never accomplish
anything because they fear both their
parents and their teachers; too many
never succeed because they are made to
feel they never can. Many child who
is full of animation and life and fun
and happiness, is made to hate his
school and school books because his
teacher does not. take the time and
trouble to study his. disposition, and
thus learn how to govern him.
