NEW YORK ACITATED.

Department Store Aggressions Alarming
the General Trade Associations.
New York paper: The Retail Butch
ers' association is the first to take de-
cisive action against the encroachments
on general trade of the department
stores. The association has ordered a
general boycott on the big dry goods
stores by families of the members of
the association. Wives and daughters
nave been told to purchase nothing
from these stores, no matter what bar
gains are offered. The wholesale deal
ers In meat have also been notified
that II they continue to furnish SUD-
plies to these dry goods establish
ments the trade of the members of
the Butchers association will be dis
continued. A member of the associa-
ton said tonight nearly all of the
wholesale dealers have granted tho
butchers demand, and that some of
the dry goods dealers are now COM
PEELED to get their meat supply from out
Of the city. A wholesale dealer in a
certain brand of hams, he said. had
been detected furnishing one of the
pirate" dry goods houses and that a
boycott Of that brand was ordered.
/ The ham has had a sale in nearly every
state in the Union, but when the dealer
that he could live without
the trade Of the New York butchers,
the butchers associations in other cities
were notified. The result, he says, is
boycott Of that particular brand
wherever 1t has heretofore been sold.
The grocers last week followed the ex-
ample of the butchers. The Retail
Grocers' union is one Of the strongest
trade organizations in the city, having
an active membership of over 1900.
Tnere are as many more retail dealers
IN the city who do not belong to the
union, but they are almost as a unit in
favor OF the action taken. The grocers
have notified members of their families
to boycott all dry goods stores which
sell groceries and have also expressed
a desire to the wholesale grocers that
they refuse to furnish dry goods houses
with supplies. Wholesale dealers in
canned goods have been notified that
II they wish to retain the trade of the
members of the union they will signify
1t by discontinuing their relations with
the dry goods firms. The butchers
and grocers confidently expect the aid
OF the liquor dealers of the city in the
boycott they have started. They con-
tend that the dry goods houses are SELL
ing liquors the same as groceries and
meats.-The Age, Chicago.

Treasure Trove In an Attic.

A short time ago young woman OF
Me1ford, while rummaging in her
fathers attic, came across an old reti-
cule in which there were half dozen
old stamps. The reticule had been
there since 1862. and, thinking thas
the stamps might be valuable from
their age, she took them to her father
and asked him to inquire into their
value. Last week, to her surprise,
her fatser told her that for her in
terest in the stamps he would pay her
fare to Washington and back. and
her expenses for two weeks visit
there. This sounds like very liberal
offer, but it is probably not so much
so as it seems. The expenses of such
trip might be about $50. while the
stamps are worth about $50. They
are the Scent pink, of the issue of
1861, and are valued in the new cata-
logue, which is just coming out. at
$15 each. In the old catalogue they
were offered at s., but they have be-
come so rare that the price has been
put up. Although they could proba-
bly, not be sold to q dealer for that
price, they are sufficiently valuable to
make it lucky find. Boston Tran.

The Orange Goat.

Paddy Walsh owned an intelligent
goat. Paddy Walsh lived in Brooklyn.
One Jam9s Mullins was arrested for
stealing the goat. and the man and
goat appeared in court one morning
recently. AS q compliment to St.
Patrick's day, the whiskers of the
goat were painted a brilliant green,
and. as a striking contrast. his stubby
tail was streaked with the hated
orange color. The prisoner explained
to the satisfaction OF the Judge that
he did not steal the goat, and he was
released. Paddy Walsh escorted the
goat from the courtroom in triumph,
and, after removing the obnoxious
color from his tail and ornamenting
it with green ribbons, sent it down
town to participate in the Hibernian
parade. IF could find the man."
patriotic Paddy Walsh said, "who
painted that goats tail orange, ]
woulk not bring him into court. but
It is likely he would need the services

KEEP OUT OF POLITICS"
Don't Read-You Might Learn Some

Don't Read-You Might Learn some-
thing and Get Mad.
So you think politics has nothing to
do with your wages or chance of getting
employment, or your debts or poverty,
eh?
The banker tells you so.
The politician tells you so.
The monopolist tells you so.
The people who live well and do
nothing tell you so.
Isn't it funny that all of these people
are all Of one mind?
All these people live off o. come
bocy.
Do you know who that somebody is!
All these people are very anxious
about the elections.
Do you ever ask yourself why?
If politics has nothing to do with you
why are they so interested?
Do you think they are fools to spend
their time and money on something
there is nothing In for them?
And II there is something in 1t for
them, who pays that something?
Why can't you see little bit under
the surface?
Have they trained you like a soldier
so you can't think but obey orders?
Why are they so anxious that you
don't vote with the cranks?
Why all this solicitude?
Politics has everything to do with
your wages and employment.
1t can render millions of you idle 20
you will have to work cheap, or it can
have all Of you busy getting big wages.
They don't want you to find this out.
They want you for voting machine
to help them live in luxury and power.
And you've been doing it.
Don't read up on the money problem
You might learn something and not
be 20 docile as slave.--Coming Nation.

From Cedar Rapids. Iowa. Republican.
Mrs. V. Curley who has resided in
Clarence. Iosya, for the past twenty
two years tells an interesting story OF
what she considers rescue from prema-
ture death. ;Her narrative follows:
For ten Years prior to 1894, l was
q constant sufferer from acute stomach
trouble. / h4d all the manifold symp-
toms OF acute dyspepsia and at times
other troubles were present in compli-
cation-I did. not know what it was To
enjoy a meaf No matter how careful
I might be s. to the quality. quantity
and preparation of my food. distress
always followed eating. / was despon-
dent and blue. Almost to the point OF
insanity at times, and would have
been glad to die. Often and often 1
could not sleep. Sympathetic heart
trouble set In and time and again 1
was obliged to call doctor in the night
to relieve sudden attacks Of suffoca-
ton which would come on without a
moments warning.
My troubles increased as time wore
on and I spent large sums in doctor
bills. being compelled to have medical
attendants almost constantly. During
1892 and 1893, 1t was impossible for me
to retain food, and water brashes
plagued me. / was reduced to a skele-
ton. A consultation of physicians was
unable to determine just what did all
me. The doctors gave US as their opin-
Ion that the probable trouble was ul-
ceration Of the coats Of the stomach
and held out no hope Of recovery. One
doctor said, "All i can do to relieve
your suffering Is by the use Of opium.
About this time a friend Of mine.
Mrs. Symantha Smith OF Glidden,
Iowa, told me about the case Of Mrs.
Thurston OF Oxford Junction, Iowa.
This lady said she had been afflicted
much the same as l had. She had con-
suited local physicians without relief,
and had gone to Davenport for treat
ment. Giving up all hope of recovery.
she was persuaded by friend to take
DR.. Williams Pink Pills. The result
was almost magical.
/ was led to try them from her ex-
perience, and before many months
felt better than I had for a dozen
years. / am now almost free from
trouble. and II through some error Of
diet feel badly, this splendid remedy
sets me right again. / have regained
my ytrength and am once more in my
usual flesh. 1 sleep we'll and can eat
without distress. have no doubt that
/ owe my recovery to DIR. Williams
