There is one medicine which every
family should be provided with. We
refer to Chamberlain's Pain Balm.
When it is kept at hand the severe
pain of a burn or scald may be prompt-
ly relieved and the sore healed in
much less time than when medicine
has to be sent for. A sprain may be
promptly treated before Inflammation
sets in. which insures cure in about
one-third the time otherwise required.
Cuts and bruises should receive imme.
diate attention, before the parts be-
come swollen, and when Chamberlain's
Pain Balm is applied it will heal them
without matter being formed, and
without leaving scar. A sore throat
may be cured in one night A piece
of flannel dampened with this liniment
and bound on over the seat of pain.
will cure lame back or pain in the side
or chest in twenty-four hours. It is
the most valuable. however, for rheu-
matism. Persons afflicted with this
disease will be delighted with the
prompt relief from pain which it af-
fords. and it can be depended upon to
effect complete cure. For sale by
all dealers.

They are Paid in Silver and Receive Half
as Much as American Workman.

WASHINGTON, D. c.. May i5.-The
Department OF State has received an in
teresting report from United States Con-
sul-General Thomas II. Jernigan, OF
North Carolina, stationed at Shanghai,
China. OH our trade relations with that
empire. Noting a falling off in the i'm
pOrtation OF domoratic commons from the
United States, as well as Great Britain,
Mr.. Jernlgan advances the opinion that
the manufacturing OF cotton cloth by
China and Japan Is responsible for the
decrease.
In 1868 the first spinning mill was erect
ed In Japan. with 5i56 spindles. in 1888
there were sixteen mills. with i3.700 spin
dies. and I'm 1893 there were I6 mills. with
some $4,000 spindes. The statistics re-
gardlng the industry in China have not
been published, but a conservative esti-
mate is hat the end OF this year will
witness $4,000 spindles and 5000 looms,
besides numerous cOtton-g gins ready TO
operate IN fifteen cotton-mills. In japan
the mll-Ownor pays from 10 20 cents
per day in silver for the mill hands, while
In the United States. labor he says. is
paid for In gold. During 1894 one dollar
in gold has been equal to two dollars OF
japanese silver, which makes clear, ac-
c0rding 10 his reasoning. that the mill
owner In the United States Is paying
twice as much for labor as the Japan
cse.
Mr.. Jernigan says that he does not
Wish TO intimate that the price OF labor
In the United States should be regulated
by the price OF labor in Oriental coun-
tries, but unless some standard Of inter-
national value for the payment OF labor
Is agreed upon. the products OF the Orien-
