Americas Great Danger
AN ENGLISH COMMENTARY.

Said an eminent English scientist recently:
The danger that confronts the great Ameri-
can people today is not the possible adop'
ton OF n wrong financial policy for thei
nation, or the spread of socialism, or the
increase. of corruption among public men.
All these are bad enough, to be sure but
they are as nothing compared to the terrible
national disease-I had almost said national
| crime of oyerwork. The mad rush for
wealth is set at killing pace, and thousands
fall by the way every year.
You are likely to be one of the victims
Howdo we know? Because it is the excep-
tI0n TO lind man or woman of adult age in
perfect health, Nervous Disorders are
spreading with fearful rapidity. Among the
symptoms, are--Backache, Biliousness, Cold
Hands and; Feet, Dizziness, Hot Flashes,

HysteriA Irritability of the Heart, Melanr

A VIOLENT coMMor1oN.


Ia the stomach and bowels produced
by a violent purgative and its conse-
quent drenching action, never are, be-
cause 1t is impossible they should be-
followed by permanent good effects.
NO specific which weakens and con-
vulses the organs for whose relief ii is
used can do good. Blue pills, calonel,
podyphyllin, salts and SIENNA, vegetable
or mineral pills, are drastic remedies
generally void of benefit. A reliable
and effective substitute for them is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which eff
fects-a change both natural and thor
ough in the bowels when they are con-
stipated. A sufficient and regular Sc
cretion of bile by the liver and sound
digestion are also promoted by it's use.
Malaria in all its forms, rheumatism
and kidney trouble are obviated by
this fine reformer Of disordered condl-
tlons of the system. A wineglassful
three times day is about the dose.

morning, and when about a mile
from the village they came upon a

er put a ball into his eye, and the bear
went for the boy who was very near.
just as he rose to give the boy hug,
he gave the bear his charge of shot in
the mouth, knocking him over, but
he returned at once to the charge.
The father had by this time put an
other ball into his gun, which gave
him his quietus.

REPEALED.

The senate on Monday passed the
VOORHEES, bill repeating the purchas-
ing clause of the Sherman act.
Amendments Of various scope and
character were offered, but all were
voted down by majorities more or less
decisive. The collapse of the COM
promise scheme was complete and
served to hasten to some extent, ac
ton on the main question. The de-
bate in the senate Immediately follow
ing the failure of compromise, devel-
ope1 the fact that the scheme which
had been formulated was favored by
Secretary Carlisle, and that its main
features were in his handwriting 1t
is further intimated that the presi-
dents decisive stand against compro-
mise was taken only after it was
known that the republican repeal SEN
ators would vote against compro-
mise of any kind.
The vote on repeal was as follows:

THAT TARIFF BILL.

Now that the silver question is set
tied, for the present at least, it is but
natural that all eyes should be turned
in the direction from which the long
awaited tariff bill is to emerge. They
are anxious for the most part, for no
one knows exactly what to expect.
Even the Democrats can not bring
themselves to believe that the ways
and means committee will actually at
tempt to redeem in full the pledges of
the Democratic national platform. AS
for the Republicans, they expect
bad bill, but how bad they can not
conjecture. 49,. --t..51
But those persons who expect a de-
parture from the Chicago platform
get little satisfaction from the few ut
terances of the Democratic members
Of the committee. Chairman Wilson
has said that the platform promises
will be strictly adhered to in the bill,
and now Congressman McMillin, one
of the most prominent members Of
the committee, expresses his belief
that 1.-THE Democratic platform should
be carried out to the letter on the tar
if and all other points" 1t should not
be forgotten that this means the care
full excision of all protective features.
Even "incidental protection" would
defeat the purpose Of the authors of
the Chicago tariff plank. Can it be
possible that fer the first time since
the i'll fated year 1857, we are to wit
ness the enactment OF a law which
practically establishes free trade? 1t
seems impossible that even The De-
mocracy can be guilty of such folly,
and it is certain that thousands upon
thousands Of Democrats will be sur
prised and indignant If this ruinous
step is actually taken. Telegraph
