The Mount Lebanon Shakers have
recently perfected an ingenious cure
for dyspepsia. Their Digestive Cor
dial consists of food already digested
and a digester of foods happily CON-
bined.
The importance Of this invention
will be appreciated when we realize
what proportion of the community
are victims of some form of stomach
trouble. Thousands of pale, thin peo-
pie have little inclination to eat, and
what they do eat causes them pain
and distress.
This Digestive Cordial OF the Shak-
ers corrects any stomach arrangement
at once. 1t makes thin people plump
Everyone will be greatly interested to
read the little book which has been
placed in the hands of druggists for
free distribution.

The Financial Situation as Viewed by
Frenchman.

The leading article in The Forum
for December is probably the clearest
analysis of the present financial situa-
ton in the United States that has yet
appeared. The writer is NJ Paul Lee
roy Beaulieu, the distinguished
French economist, who lays down the
Conditions for American Commercial
and Financial Supremacy He says
that there is much surprise through
out Europe that a great nation like
the United States should allow its de-
velopment to be trammelled by fire.
quent and severe crises, and that it
should be either unable to discern
their causes or lack decision to re-
move them from its path. He thinks
that the failure of the American gov
eminent to redeem its paper currency
after the War was great and vital
error, whose evil influences are still
felt. In his opinion, the United States
government should cease to issue
paper money. renting this task to
the banks. NJ Beaulieu points out
that the geographical position of the
United States is such that it can as
pire to take from England, in the
course of the next century, its COM
mercial and financial supremacy, but
that in order to attain this supremacy
the dollar must be given the qualities
of the pound sterling: in other words,
there must he no sort of doubt that ii is
a gold dollar. After warning Aneri-
cans not to be duped by the ambigu-
Gus expressions as to bimetallism in
dulged in by European statesman for
public effect, he calls attention to the
enormously increating output of gold,
and says that, in view of this fact, the
bimetallism movement is bound to
collapse. NJ Beaulieu closes his
article with these profoundly signifi-
cant words:
"The abandonment of notes or
paper money issued by the State; the
definite adoption of gold as the sole
standard-these are the two necessary
conditions on which the United States
can secure financial position as i'm
portant as that they now hold in ag-
riculture and industry. On these two
conditions they can some day approach
and equal Great Britain as financial
power. If, on the contrary, they per-
sist in their system of government
paper money, and in the 'rehabilita-
ton of silver their industrial and
commercial development will be tram
melled, and they will undergo mark
ed and permanent experiences of fin
ancial weakness"

DR.. HARTMAN SAYS
Now is the Time to Guard Against
Colds-The First Cold Weather.

In recent lecture at the Surgical
Hotel DIR. Hartman is reported as say
ing that no one need catch cold if he
is willing to give the matter slight at
teution; that cold in the beginning
of chronic catarrh, consumption, dis
ease of the liver, stomach. kidneys
and pelvic organs. All this could be
prevented by taking his advice. The
doctors professional duties compelled
him, for many years, to be much on
the road night aud day, by carriage,
railroad and steamboat. During all
this time he never caught a cold.
This could not have been done with
out Pe-ru-na, he says. At the slight
est evidence of cold few doses of
Pe-ru-na invariably check it.
This is especially seasonable advice
for the cold weather is here, with its
storms, sudden changes, slop, rain and
snow. Thousands of people will con-
tract diseases from which they will
never recover by catching cold. DR..
Hartman's advice should be needed.
Pe-ru-na cures catarrh of any stage or
location. 1t is the most popular REM
edy for la grippe, coughs, colds, etc.
Send for free copy of an illustrat-
ed book on catarrh. 1t contains six
ty-four pages of valuable instructions.
Address the Pe-ru-na Drug Manufac-
turing Company, Columbus, o. Ask
your druggist for copy of The Pc
ru-na Almanac for 1896.
