Vests .warning'' to the ..Gold
Bugs.o


Senator Vests assertion that 'iii
J any attempt to commit the Democratic
National Convention to a single gold
standard succeeds it will split the
party and cause the nomination of a
free silver ticket is intended as a
warning to the ..gold bugs" to GO
slow. a split in the Democratic
party would give the Republicans ma
jorities in 1895 which would make
those of 1894 look Insignificant. The
Republican lead of 5000 in Missouri
last year would be followed by one OF
sc, 200 or so, 900 next year. As the Re-
publicans had margin of 49,, 900 in
Ohio, 156, 900 in New York and al, 900
in Pennsylvania in 1894, it would not
be easy to put the estimate of their
majority in 1896 too high.
But the Senator's liltimatum is not
quite as formidable as it seems. The
National Convention will not declare
for the "single gold standard" in any
direct and positive sense. Nobody
ever either feared or hoped 1t would
do this. 1t viii not say openly and
squarely that free coinage of silver at
the 16 to ratio by the United States
independently would be a financial
iniquity, and that those favoring it
ought to be either disfranchised or
condemned to join the Populist party.
The men who draw up the platform
win believe this, but they will not say
it. The platform viii straddle the sill
yer question, as those of 1883 and 1892
did, and the nominee, like the nominee
of those years, If ifelected, will ostracise
every silver man and win veto every
silver bill he gets his hand on.
The boasts and threats of the sill
verite3 have lost all their impressive
ness by repetition. They were heard
on the eve of the campaigns of 1883
and 1892. The Conventions of those
years disregarded them as that of
1895 viii. It is hard to recognize in
the meek and nerveless Kentucky
candidates for Governor and Senator
the truculent and vociferous Hardin
and Blackburn of three or four weeks
ago. A word from headquarters has
produced the transformation. In 1896
the Democratic siIverites of the coun-
try at large viii also have to accept
the 'logic of the situation . As ad-
herents of a lost cause they may
arouse some commiseration, but they
are seriously deluded If they imagine
that this feeling viii be transmitted In
to concessions in the platform or the
ticket Globe Democrat.

A Remarkable Cure Of rheumatism

"A ltcLndrAaDle CuEe Ol ftncuInat1stus
Westminster, CAL, March 81, 1894.
Some time ago, on awakening one
morning, l found that I had rheuma-
tism in my knee so badly that, as ]
remarked to my wife, it would be inn
possible for me to attend to my busi-
ness that day. Remembering that
had some of Chamberlain Pain Balm
in my store sent for bottle, and
rubbed the afflicted parts thoroughly
with it, according to directions, and
within an hour I was completely re-
lieved. One application had done the
business. It is the best liniment on
the market, and I sell it under posi-
tive guarantee. r. T. Harris. For

Rainy Day Work.

Look into my note book and see
what I have set down for the boys to
do during lowery weather and in odd
spells, when the chief operations of
the farm can not be regularly carried
on. Much of the pasture is occupied
with thistles, rag weeds, scrubby BUSH
es, worthless trees and loose stones. All
these things may be removed profita-
bly, and plaster or ashes sown. In
many places tender, tempting herbage
will sprout where nothing grew before.
If storms prevail, muster every hand
to a bee for cleaning the barns, car
riage house and sheds, and preparing
the stables for winter occupancy.
Sweep down all the dust and cobwebs,
take out the window sashes, wash
every part clean, and after it has dried
put in new glass and putty where ever
it is needed. Then paint each sash
carefully, and you will be surprised
to see how much more light a single
PohO WILL ddAnlt- LUZ lOrkct luc
grsnary. Let every bin and every
corner be swept and busted, removing
every vestige of old or spoiled feed
that is likely to contaminate the re-
mainder. Grind the axes and file the
saws, clean the harness and repair it
where breaks have occurred or threat
en-; oil it, and If the hooks fer hang
ing it up properly are broken, put up
new ones. A little care will often
make a great difference in the lasting
value of harness.
Every implement and tool that is to
be laid by until spring should be
cleaned, wiped dry and covered with
oil. Take apart the horse rake and
other light and bulky things and hang
them up, or put them.in an upper story,
or on a scaffold. Don't be satisfied
to leave the stable and doors full of
cracks that will, by and by, let in the
cold. If the floor is a wooden one
test it with bar in every part to see
that it has not become rotten and
weak, and liable to let the leg of some
animal be caught and perhaps broken.
1t is good time to dig and dry big
lot of muck to keep these stables dry
and sweet all winter, and vastly in
crease the manure pile and farms fer
tility. 1t is not best to draw this
muck long distances before it has
dried, but when sun and wind haye re-
duced 1t to a powder one team can
haul large quantity. Its own fer
tilizing value is not great in most in
stances, but as vehicle for carrying
afield the riches of stable liquids it
has no equal for cheapness and effect
ivenesss. Have the boys look through
the cellars, carrying out fruits and
that have begun to rot, set
ting traps for rats that show a dispo-
sition to make this their winter retreat
and examining the hives of bees fire.
queutly to see that they are not infest-
ed by mice.-Hollister Sage.

WHEN DEATH IS NEAR.
Sensations We shall Probably Expe-
rtence sooner or Later.

Sensations We shall Probably Expe.
rience sooner or Later.
/ Preston King, in the May number OF
the Medical Magazine, gives very
interesting account of a personal ex-
perience of pneumonia, in the course
of which he tells how he felt when
death seemed near:
.'Whenswe are we'll we think with a
dread of death But when
illness comes. and the end is very
near, then all that dread seems gone;
and though perfect consciousness re
mains, there is no fear of death: none
of that chill dread we used to know;
merely peaceful, tired feeling: we
long for rest; we only want sleep. We
are sorry to be leaving those We
love; not for any selfish reasons but
because we know that they will miss
us, and will grieve when we are gone;
for ourselves we do not mind; we only
want rest.
There was no fear,, only wanted
rest; and that rest I surely soon
should find in the high black wall of
mist seemed to see before me, to-
ward which I was slowly drifting and
which was also coming on to meet me,
and soon thought it would enyelop
me and wrap me around, and all be
dark. That wall came very near; and
then I seemed to think: My doctors
have not told me am dying!' and so
1 turned my head away and slept; and
when ] woke the wall had vanished,
and the worst was past. y
At one period of his illness DIR.
Preston King could not sleep and
spent night of nameless horror. His
brain was in wild whirl, his room
full of shadowy forms ieering and iib-
ing at him. Again: "At one time my
room became vast and low-roofed
church; and from the far-off chancel
and through the dimly lighted aisle /
saw my nurse approaching. could
see the Gothic arches and the painted
windows, and the urns and monuments
to those long dead; and to my fancy
it seemed that this old church reached
far away behind me, where could
not see. but still knew that it was
there, for l could smell the damp.
sepulchral air, and feel the chilling
wind that blew among the tombs. :"
Referring to the period of covales-
cence, DR.. Preston King says it was
almost worth being Ill for the pleasure
of getting we'll again.
