Hon. DAVIS WINNIE OWES HIS HEALTH
TO DIR. DAVID KENNEDY's FAvoRITE
RE&EDY.
SHANDAKEN, n. Y.-One of the most
prominent men in Ulster County is the
Hon. Davis Whine, of this town. His
reputation is not confined alone to this
county, where he held the office of Sher-
i'll for three years, he was also this dis
tricts representative in the New York
State Legislature. For years Mr.. Whine
has been suffering from a complicated
case of kidney and bladder trouble and
congestion of the liver. Upon the adj
vice of frierds he decided to try DR..
Kennedy's Favorite Remedy. He was
disappointed, for IN short while after
ne began its use, he was in better health
than he had been in years before.
In speaking of favorite Remedy, Mr..
Whine said ut has done more for me
than all the physicians ever employed,
and ! most unhesitatingly recommend
it to any one suffering from kidney, liver
or urinary troubles, for it will cure
them.
DR.. Kennedy's Favorite Remedy, is the
acknowledged specific for all diseases
arising from acidity of the blood, and
will cure dyspepsia, rheumatism
scrofula, eczema, kidney, liver and
urinary troubles.
Ion cannot afford to tritle with, health
and life. Putting off treatment when
dangerous symptoms exist is only slow
suicide. Accept the aid of DR.. Kennedy's
Favorite Remedy; it has restored thou
sands to health and strength.

BIrthrnarIed with sothern,s Walk.

In lecture at the University of Penn
sylvania DIR. Barton C. Hirst instanced an
extraordinary case of the subtle influence
exerted by a mother on her child, which
was brought to his attention by a New
York physician. A young girl of wealthy
parents became desperately in love with
the elder Sothern, and besides attending
every performance she sent him innumer-
able love letters These Mr.. Sothern mailed
to her father, and the girl was sent abroad.
There sho met an cstimable gentleman
and finally married him. Some years after
DIR. Hirst was called to see their child,
and he was astonished as well as amused
to see the little toddler only years old
walk across the room with that indcscrib-
abio gait which Sothcrn used when play
ing his famous character of Lord Dun
dreary. -Philadolphia Record.

Coffee as a medicine in many forms
of disease is recognized as of great val
ne. 1t is also most irritating to many
persons and gives rise to symptoms of
a grave character. An instance is given
by an eminent French medical man of IL
family who became possessed of a most
astonishing tendency to quarrel There
were quite a number of persons in the
household, and several servants were
employed. So frequent and serious did
the outbreaks become that physician
was consulted. Fortunately he was "a
scientist as we'll as a doctor, and on
finding no physical provocation for such
a state Of affairs began looking for 9TH
er reasons. He ascertained that the low
er part of the dwelling was used as a
coffee warehouse. The volatile essence
of tho coffee had penetrated every por-
ton of the living apartments, and the
inmates had become so thoroughly sat
urated with it that their nervous sys-
TENS were entirely demoralized. Hypo-
chondria, hysteria and angry demon.
STATIONS amounting to positive fury
were the order of the day. The family
were sent away 20 the seashore and
after remaining some weeks returned to
town and took upnew apartments. Aft
er a few months all traces of the malady
disappeared. New York Ledger.

THE GAME OF DISTRTS1.

Everybody knows that the Treasury is In diff
ficuty. But many people do not see that the
root Of difficulty is the new tariff which has
caused a serious reduction in wages and in con
sumption throughout the country Officials Of
the Treasury Department are dreaming of n
largely increased revenue this year, but
they persistcntly ignore the fact that the wage
earning millions not able TO expend as much
in purchases as they have expended in previous
wears It Is the common impression that the de-
cline in prices which really lower than ever
before has been enough 10 compensate for the
fall in wages. But the workingmen and their
wives. who have to meet household expenditures
with reduced incomes, know that this is mis-
take.
The average Of wholesale prices Of all COM
modtics Is now a shade lower than II was
October %. then the lowest point ever reached,
and yet 1t is only 6.3 per cent lower than at the
end Of 1893. In rents and retail prices,
however the decline has not been as great so
that the entire cost Of living for the millions Of
working people is probably about per cent
less than year ago. and 10 per cent less than
two years ago. Statistics collected by ''Dun's
Review" from firms employing $4,000 hands in
1892. show decrease Of PHI per cent in
amount Of wages paid since that year, Of which
IL per cent was i'm the number Of hands en-
ployed, 2.S per cent in hours Of work. and SO
per cent in wages per hour. The wages paid
averaged 1888 per cent larger than year ago.
