The Truest Friends Are Those
Who Never FOrsake Us.
This May Lead You to Find One
You Need and Have

Wo all value true friend, and there
comes time to all when assistance Of
some kind is necessary. When our health
fails and we are overtaken by sickness
and disease, then is the time when the
needed friend comes forward TO aid US.
Mrs. Alice Dyson, OF 2S Hamlet street,
Fall River, Mass, knows the value OF
such a friend, for one came to her when
she was sick and almost dying and made
hera strong, well woman. She writes the
following letter about it:
81 suffered for five years with nervous
prostration in its severest form. / had

trcme palpitation, was constantly tired
and obliged to lie down much OF the time.
For two years had 10 be helped up and

Mrs. Dyson feels that this medicine is
the best friend she has in the world, for il
saved her from a life of suffering and
misery and she knows il will do just as
much for everyone who is in need OF
medicine. DIR. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy is the best friend the
sick and suffering have ever known, for it
cures them, it gives them health and
strength.
The spring is always the best time to
take medicine, for then the system yields
more readily to the remedy, and DIR.
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy
is the best of all spring medicines. 1t is
purely vegetable and harmless, being the
discovery OF DIR. Greene, of 81 Temple
Place, Boston, Mass. the most successful
specialist in curing nervous and chronic
diseases. He can be consulted at his office
free, personally or by letter.

From an Authority on Books.

Said well-known book lover and au-
thority on art works: have seen eight
or 10 different Worlds Fair books and
the NEWS Magic City is the hand
soonest, most accurate and with the best
selection of views of any of them. Take
one little point for instance. Most OF the
publications print n photograph
of the Fine Arts Building with the
statue of Victory on top. The statue of
Victory was in the. original model, but it
was never put on he actual building. That
shows that the photographs were not taken
from the building as nnally completed.
Other books show staging about some of
the buildings, demonstrating that the pic
lures were taken before the completion
of tho buildings. The pictures in
the Magic City are absolutely correct,
lust as the buildings actually were built
and taken at time and from point OF
view that makes them most picturesque
and effective"

The Ohio Democrats and Silver.

Owing to misinformation that seems
to be widespread, an idea has gone
abroad that the Democrats OF Ohio have
reversed all previous state platforms in
declaring for the free coinage OF silver.
Such misinformation can have no effect
on the minds of men who have memo
ries, but it is calculated to create q
false impression on the minds Of those
who take only passing interest in po-
litical history.
In 1890 the Democrats Of Ohio adop-
ted this resolutions: 1--WE favor the
free coinage Of silver at it's present
ratio with gold.''
In 1891 they adopted this declara-
ton: I'VE denounce the demonetiza-
tion of silver in 1873 by the party then
in power as an iniquit0us alteration OF
the money standard in favor of credi-
tors and against debtors, taxpayers
and producers. and which, by shutting
off ore of the sources OF supply OF
primary money. operates continually
to increase the value OF gold, depress
prices, hamper industry and discour
age enterprise; and we demand the re-
instatement of the constitutional STAN
dard OF both gold and silver, with the
equal right of each to free and unlimi-
ted coinage"
And yet, in the face Of these declara-
tions, we see statements to the effect
that the recent Ohio declaration for
the free coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 TO l is something new in the re-
cord Of the party in that state.-At-
Iankn Constitution.
