Almost all successful physician

In jeopardy to experiment on them
selves. Drugs, poisons and narcotics
are the favorite subjects of expert

many obscure heroes have laid down
their lives in the interests of science
because their calculations failed. A
Brooklyn physician, while travelling
IN France with his wife, was forced
to 60 through the cholera districts
some years ago. He had a new the
DRY of his own for the cure of chol
era. and his wife was in a fever Of
dread over the chance of infection.
This man inoculated himself with
the germs of cholera, and then, with
two paid attendants, isolated himself
from the rest of the world and put
his theory into practice. having left
minute directions for his treatment
before delirium set in. In a week he
was cured. shortly after his wife

How He Became Private" Allen.

Allen Of Mississippi is everywhe.t
known as Private Allen, but it is
not as generally known how he oh
tanned this title. 1t was when he
first ran for congress. He stumped
the district with his competitor, a
General Tucker, who opened the
campaign with a rhetorical rhapsody
in which he alluded to his war serv
ices and particularly described a bat
tie in which he had commanded the
Confederate side, beginning, Eel
low .4tizens. l slept one night in a
tent on the mountain side awaiting
the battle on the morrow"
When he had finished, Allen got
up and said Friends and fellow
citizens-What General Tucker told
You about his sleeping in the tent
that night before the battle Is true.
l know, for | was guarding that tent
all night long in the cold and wet.
Now, | want to say to all of you who
wereg generals in the war and slep
at night in your guarded tents, vote
for him. But all You fellows that
guarded the generals tents i'll wet

THE HOUSEHOLD.
A Brownie For Luck,

Every fashionable young woman
now wears, somewhere about her
person, though it may not be visible
to the casual eye, a "brownie"
figure. 1t is supposed to bring
good luck to her who wears one
faithfully during three changes of
the moon. Now an ordinary gold,
silver, or enamel brownie has
become so inexpensive little
ornament, the smart young woman
cannot bring herself to wear one
until it is by some means made
worthy of her purse and position;
so she orders her brownie made of
the best enamel and set with one
jewel, her birth stone. For example,
if she makes up her mind to ask
luck of a policeman brownie, she
will have his club made of diamonds;
or if sailor brownie, in the top of
his cap is set a seed pearl. Among
the very popular stones for wear this
winterare two revivals; the amethyst
and the tourmaline. This last is a
most delightful shade of green, the
tint of crystal-clear sea water, and
matrOnS are to wear it made into
huge, splendid ornaments. For
example, tourmaline as big as a
tablespoon will be set about with
sixteen star points of diamonds,
which is the modest little brooch
chaperons will pin on the fronts of
their decollete bodices; and young
girls will be permitted to wear
bracelets of tOurmalines and
amethysts. These will only appear
on the upper arm, clasping the firm
flesh very closely, and are made of
the stones cut en- cabochon and set
about with diamonds. These brace
lets are not made OF sold in pairs,
for only one arm is decorated, the
left or right, as suits the taste of
the wearer; and as many unmatch-
ed bracelets can be exhibited on
the single round white member at a
time as individual preference may

Sailed Almonds.

Somebody has gone and discovered
that sailed almonds were a favorite
edible in Nero's time, and that that
wicked creature nibbled at them just as
every one does today if he gets the
chance. 1t is hoped sailed almonds are
not accountable for the many acts of
cruelty which mark Nero's reign, be-
cause if there is anything worse than
dyspepsia to be laid at their door it is
well to know.it now. A severe attack
of indigestion might make an emperor
commit the most flendish acts and it's
cause be buried in oblivion until this
modern pokenose discovered it to be the
sailed almond. Boston Herald.

HOAO >AotS9h commodities W pay
gold interest and buy what we i'm
port. The deficiency during the last
year amounted to more than one
hundred millions. There is nearly
fifty millions less gold in the treas
ury than there was a year ago and
fifty eight millions have been Dor
rowed by the sale of five per cent
interest bearing bonds. [Since this
was written fifty millions more
have been sold.-ED. There is in
circulation mostly in the banks,
over one thousand millions of silver
and paper. By law the paper is all
redeemable in either silver or gold,
but by the policy of the admins
tration this one thousand million is
all redeemable in gold. and there
is only about fifty millions in the
treasury with which to redeem it.
The inability of the United States
to export enough to pay interest at
gold prices, involves the necessity
of continuing to borrow gold to
provide for redemption of the paper
and silver in circulation, and every
dollar that is borrowed adds to the
burden of interest to be carried by
more borrowing, and so long as this
policy is maintained every dollar of
paper or silver which is used in
wolves the necessity Of borrowing
more gold and reduces the price of
everything to gold basis. This is
inevitable so long as everything
must be paid or redeemed in gold
and gold remains the instrument of
price. The gold combination do
not care for gold; what they want is
gold prices. Gold prices mean dear
money and cheap property, and
suits the owners of money and
holders of notes and mortgages.
The reconciliation of silver would
be to the world what the gold of
California and Australia was dur
ings the abundant production of the
mines when both metals had free
coinage. 1t would stop falling
prices and tend to advance them; it
would set the wheels of industry in
motion and give every willing hand
employment; it would enable the
industrious and enterprising to
clear their farms of mortgages, pay
their debts, and accumulate prop
erty; it would substitute prosperity
and happiness for the gloom and
despair with which the gold COM
binatiOn has inflicted the human
race. Republicanism and Cleve-
land Democracy are joined to the
same gold idol. No public man of
prominence of the Republican party
or the Cleveland Democracy, ex-
cept Senator Cameron, north of the
Potomac and east of the Dakotas,
has declared for free coinage during
the present campaign. On the
contrary, they have either ignored
the question or renewed their
pledges to the Rothschild combina-
ton. They adopt the policy of the
cuttlefsh, and use the tariff to
darken the waters to hide their ne
farious schemes. Cleveland sound
ed the keynote which established
the policy in this campaign of both
the old parties. He said the Amer
lean people were anxious for tariff
reform, and that the Senate bill did
not redeem the pledges of the Dem
ocratic party, and he gave the rea-

CONCLUDED

lCONCLUDED.
The gold basis has, and will con-
tinue to furnish sufficient distress
in the country to require no other
evidence of the bad administration
of any party. The term "parity"
and "interconvertibility" constitute
the very strongest card. They say
they want more money, but it must
be interconvertible with gold and
on parity with gold, which means
gold basis. Gold is worth twice
as much as it was twenty years ago,
and all the other money on a parity
with gold is also worth twice as
much as it was twenty years ago.
The reason is silver has been de-
monetized and one-half of the
worlds money is destroyed. Money
is not different from anything else.
If it is scarce it will be dear; if half
of the supply is destroyed each dol
lar of the other half is worth Just
twice as much. The use of gold
alone has not only doubled the OBJ
legation of contracts, but destroyed
the price of property. Was this
honest? Was it honest for the gold
combination to monopolize the
money of the world and double it's
purchasing power? This is the
parity which the gold men advocate.
Honesty and fair dealing require a
very different kind of parity.
Money should be on parity with
labor and property; money meas
ures the value of property. An
honest parity requires stability of
general prices. The volume of
money controls general prices and
should be sufficient to sustain them
to the end that the burden of debt
should not grow aud the means of
payment be taken away by the fall
ing of prices. The parity of the
gold men is the parity of gold with
gold, for obligations payable in gold
if the collateral is sufficient ale the
same as gold.
When the minis were open to
both gold and silver parity be-
tween the two metals was main
tanned because either could be con-
verified into full legal tender money.
1t made no difference whether a
person had gold or silver bullion.
He could take it to the mint and
have it coined into money. AS long
as a given quantity of gold and
another given quantity of silver
could be exchanged for the same
amount of money, those quantities
were always equal in value. Open
the minis, and parity will take care
of itself. Open the minis, restore
the money of the constitution, and
give the people parity between the
products of labor and money.
Repeal all laws authorizing gold
contracts, or contracts for any par
ticular kind of money, and make
such contracts illegal and void and
prosperity will be restored. The
United States cannot maintain a
gold standard without utter bank.
