Makes the Weak Strong.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, June IA,
1S94-Fof the last eight years l
have been great sufferer at times
from lack of proper circulation of
the blood. The effect upon me was
most enervating and depressing.
When the attacks were upon me a
terrible numbness and inertia seemed
to permeate my whole body, and !
became so weak that l could scarce
ly stand. Any exertion was by the
greatest effort, and was almost in
for any business what
ever. After trying numerous physi-
clans, with only indifferent success,
I was induced take to Hoods Sarsa-
parilla, and experienced great relief
from the first bottle. / continued
the use, and am still using it, now
taking my fourth bottle. l have
steadily improved and am now look
ing better and feeling better than |
have for years, and weigh more than
l ever did in my life. J. L. Fry,
deasss In boc8s and stationary.

Nothing Strange.

Intelligent people, who realize the
important part the blood holds in
keeping the body in a normal condi-
ton, find nothing strange in the
number of diseases Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla is able to cure. So many
troubles result from impure blood,
the best way to treat them is
through the blood. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla vitalizes the blood.

The Courier Journal says: When
G. Washington & Co. fought
against taxation without representa-
ton and won free America, they
little dreamed that they were es-
tablishing the principle not only
that the poor could get a living
without working for it, but that,
when striker feels rich enough to
dispense with work, he can compel
his starving fellow men to remain as
idle as himself. But then they did
not know everything down in l776.
We live to learn, and Debs, not
Washington, is now the only wear.
The Pittsburg Dispatch, Repub-
lican, says: The monstrous pro-
ceedings at Chicago must awaken
the country to realization at last
that the wasteful contests raised be-
tween labor and capital for several
years past have had as much to do
with the late depression and uncer-
tainty in business as any other cause
1t is to be doubted if the silver
question, or even the tariff tinker
ing, or both combined, have had
more influence in checking enter
prises and unsettling values and
producing distress, both in CONNER
cial and industrial circles, than the
many strikes which have been or
dered on small or insufficient provo
cation. No country, however great
its advantages, could sustain bust
ness continuously prosperous and
profitable in all its branches with
two or three strikes, covering a State
orsstwo, and occasionally half the ma
tion, recurring every few m onths.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.


NEW YORK, August l5.-Speculation at
the Stock Exchange quieted down a good
deal to-day. not unnaturally, In view
of the sharp rise of the past few days
and the disposition to limit new opera
tions until tariff matters are finally ad-
justed either by President Clevelard's
affixing his signature to the Senate bill.
or the bilps becoming a law after ten
days have elapsed. without such action
by the President Wall street regards
a veto as out of the question. The trans
actions aggregated only 2l1,6s. against
1872 10 shares yesterday, but the falling
of was largely due to a decrease IN the
sales of Sugar, which figured for $500,
against 1l2.JOO shares yesterday.
As early cables reported Americans
lower abroad. the market opened at de-
cline Of X to X per cent. the latter In

had selling orders in this stock. as well
