rRoF. LAramLIN's REPLY.

Prof. Laughlin, replying tor the
negative, said: Apart from the
weli-understood use Of money as a
medium of exchange, money is used
like common denomination Of value.
with which other articles are COM
pared. As measure Of value, it
serves, in smaller way, as a quart
cup may serve rs measure of capa-
city; and as there is not needed
separate cup for every quart OF milk
in existence, so one can measure
hundreds OF thousands OF goods by
comparing with the same standard of
measure. 1t is evident that the
quantity of measure Is not SO mater
ial as the unvarying stability Of the
standard OF measure.
Prices since 1878 have not fallen
because IF the lack OF money Silver
has fallen about 50 per cent, as
compared with very modest fall in
the price OF commodities silver does
not have the same purchasing price
IN 1894 As in 1873. Hence, free coin
age cannot be urged as Just means
of paving debts.
Free coinage Of silver would not
increase the quantity Of money. Since
gold must be iHey tally driven out.
the free coinage OF SILVER would result

A NEW LIGHT ON NERVES.
DR.. Shoop, the Well Known
Specialist on the Nerves
and Some of his Dis
coveries.
Some diseases Thought to be Local
Troubles. but Found to Depend
on the Nerves.

Two Sets OF Nerves Instead of One. Their
Different Functions. How TO Treat Them
When We are Sick. stomach. Liver. Kid
Trouble etc, and How They May be
Cured by Treating the Nerves.
DR.. Shoop has contributed some
thing new to medical science.
He has discovered a valuable fact
about disease and how to cure it.
de has proved that sickness of the
internal organs. the stomach, liver,
kidneys, etc, depends almost entirely
upon the nerves.
Which nerves?
Not the nerves that come directly
from the brain, the cerebro-spinal
nerves, but the nerves which act in
dependently of the nerves, the syna-
pathetic nerres.
nerves?
They are not very well known
Even doctors don't study them very
thoroughly.
Or. Shoop has made a speciality of
them, and his discovery has sho "
how important they are.
1t is not hard 70 prove that DIR.
shoop is right.
Can YOU 0W your mouth to omen
your hand to move, your arm to
strike?
Yes.
The way it is done is for the brain
to viii the cerebro-spinal nerves "a
carry the message, the muscles TO
obey the will.
50 the cerebro-spinal nerves are
the tcH nerres.
but can you will your stomach to
digest your food, your liver Fl store
It up your heart to stop beating?
And the reason is, that the nerves
winch control these organs are mol the
cerebro-spinal nerves, but the SYM
pathetic nerves.
just so long as the svmpatbet;o
nerves keep well, your stomach. vonr
liver, your kidneys, etc. do their
work S they ought.
And your health is good.
but as soon as the sympathetic
nerves get out of order, everything
else seems to 90 wrong, and does 90
wrong.
Your stomach gets out of order.
your liver doesn't act, your kidneys
begin to ache, you NAV suffer from
nausea headache, lassitude, etc, etc.
This is the beginning.
This is the result of your sympa-
thetic nerves getting out of order.
DIR. Shops Restorative controls
the sympathetic nerves.
Ordinary doctors prescribe different
medicines for these various diseases.
but Or. Shoop, after searching for.
and finding the cause of diseases of
the internal organs, combined certain
vegetable extracts, known by him to
act directly upon the sympathic
nerves
The combination or special pre-
scription, has come to be known as
DIR Shops Restorative. 1t strikes
at the cause.
What are considered various dis
eases. are in reality, only various
symptoms OF one disease, that OF the
sympathetic nerves.
A e5torative food and tonic for
them will set everything to rights.
It will cure the cause. and the
symptoms will go away of themselves.
This is the new fact that DR.. Shoop
has discovered, the cause of disease of
the internal organs, and the perma-
nent cure of the cause.
pr. Shops Restorative is for sale
by all druggists, or it will he sent to
any address, express prepaid, on re-
ceipt of price. 81 90 per bottle.
A valuable pamphlet explaining
further about the sympathetic nerves
will be mailed free on request. Adj

The great scarcity thus far this
spring Of the ever-welcome robin has
been the occasion of frequent com
ment on the part of people who have
a great admiration of the breasted
tnrdus migartorius, which usually ar
rives from Southern chimes in April
and makes its summer home in Wis
consin. Those who have sheltered
and protected robins in their trees
for many seasons state that thus far
this year they have not seen single
robin about the old haunts and they
fear that they are not going to be on
hand in anything like the usual num-
bers. Various reasons have been adj
vanced for this regretted shortage in
the supply OF robins, including the
well-known cause for the absence Of
other birds, the pesky little English
sparrow. new and doubtless more
potent cause than any yet advanced
is given bv man who recently re-
turned from spending the winter in
the extreme South. He states that
the leading winter resort hotels in
AAtI HOAttt* - I'thAdiA III AoAl1As
have for some time been feeding rob
in to their northern guests and that
the demand for this tender morsel has
come to be very great in those sec
tons As the robin lives in large
flocks when wintering in the South,
the males keeping in one flock and
the females in another. it is compar-
atiyely easy to kill and trap these
beautiful birds in large umbers, and
the Milwaukeean states that the ho-
tells there buy them from hunters and
general dealers by the thousand.
That this is one great reason Of the
comparative shortage in the robin
crop in Milwaukee. as well as other
cities This reason seems more than
probable Evening Wisconsin.
