BoLyRo OF COLLAR.

Figaro Jackets are like the poor. But
there is one striking and most satisfac-
tory difference between the two great
products of civilization just referred TO.
The poor seem always the same-de-
graded. helpless, uninyitins; while the lit
tie jackets are never alike for two sea-
sons running. You can never be sure
what sort of a curve or what length or
breadth they will next take unto them
selves. Therein lies their charm. That il
why they do not meet with the fate of
the class they so closely resemble. So
long as they show the same restless, row
ing spirit as does thei woman beneath

can the new figaro be called a jacket or
collar? 1t is almost next TO mpossi-
BILE to decide. Many of the deep collars
fall In fronts that look exactly like a
short bolero, and one has TO crane ones
neck to get back view in order TO de-
eide upon their identity. And many OF the
jackets have fronts so short that one
takes them for collars until their wearer
turns ana exhibits a round jacket back.

DOWD.
This Will Tell You Just What 10 Do For
Yourself.
And Just Why You Should Follow Ex.
actly This Plan.

In the spring everybody needs TO THINK
about taking a spring medicine. NOT
only is this a common practice, out d
very necessary and healthful one. IL
is a fact which the physicians ackno"-
ledge and the people recognize generaHy
that spring tonic taken during the
months of March. April and May is more
conducive TO the restoration OF health,
in cases of those who are sick, than
any other course of treatment that could
possibly be adopted.
1t is further understood by everybody
that even for those who call themselves
well. it is very important at this season
of the year, If they would maintain
good health and Vigor, to take spring
remedy to strengthen and invigorate the
nerves, tone up the action OF all the
organs, and thus, by creating healthy
condition Of the nerves, blood, stomach
liver. kidneys and bowels, assist Nature
in the efforts she always makes in the
spring to cleanse, purify and inVigorate
the sytem.
In the spring there are a great many
and important changes going on in the
body. Perfect heath cannot be main
tanned while the system is clogged and
the organs sluggish. and the person has
a langlid and weakened feeling. with
more or less nervousness and debility.
Now, in regard to what you should
take. The best spring medicine, endorsed
and recommended by physicians, drug
gists and the people is DR.. Grecne's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy. In
proof of this, thousands Of testimonials
are being constantly published in the
papers The following Is from Mrs. Eta

WHAT THE DISPATCH WOULD LIKE!

The Dispatch devoted nearly column
OF it's editorial matter yesterday-indeed
about three-fourths of all it had-to an
attack on this paper. the object evidently
being TO try TO convince some of its
thoughtless readers that The Times is not
Democratic.
The Dispatch would give a great deal
to satisfy the people of Virginia that The
y.pes is pot.e nemocratic ?aper--T his de-
sire Is due TO several motives, some of
them possibly worthy; but 10 be again the
only morning Democratic paper in Rich
inond-a position it occupied for many
years without fear Of rivalry-would be
delight, the like of which-well the like
of which-the Dispatch will never again
enjoy 10 compass this fond but delusive
hope, for these joys it has tasted will 40
more return. 1t has worked and squirmed
and wrigged all around every difficulty
that required manly and straightforward
treatment.
1t has made no effort to teach Demo-
cratic principles and has thought only Of
SfltlulllR lHt IlOSl COTIuDl UidtNANtS VI
tho rarty--as if a great political party
could like hyena, live on corruption. 1t
has not shown that charity-which ere
joiceth not in iniquity but reioiceth in the
truth"-and it has, reviled The Times as
lacking in fidelity--and to what? To prin-
ciple? No, To the best teachings of those
Democrats who were the greatest and
trrest friends of human rights? No-but
lacking in fidelity TO the ballot-boX stuff
fers and the transposers of names who
like the heather Chinee, did the same
with intent TO deceive
And now when recently there was
movement by the extreme wing of free
silver Democrats to get up a plan TO
commit the party to their wild ideas. The
Times said there were Democrats in Nir-
ginia who would not be dTagooned into
voting for a nominee representing such
financial views. and cited cases where
Democrats had before kicked over the
traces. The Dispatch was delighted in
this way-"The Times. too. will no doubt
be a kicker''-"rhe Times will quit the
party'-'We will be the only Democratic
morning paper in Richmo nd-whoop!
whooray!"
Now The Times will not "kick before
IL is spurred' neither will The Times
hedge"
1t will go right on preaching Demo-
cracy-telling the truth-eXposing frauds
publishing a morning Democratic paper
in misunderstanding for the interests of
the people rather than those of polti-
clans and believing that in sound and
true Democracy. not a rotten and per-
verted one. will be found their greatest
safety. And with all this. and without
undertaking TO say what the various
parties or issues will be in 1896. The Times
does not expect TO advocate the election
OF free silver Democrat on a free silver
platform as that is ordinarily understood.

TUE AMERICAN BIMErALLIC PARTY

Well, it has come at last! The old
greenback craze in a new form; "A party
that once had no metal in it now claims
to want two but would prefer but one
silver. The manifesto deolaLds, of.course:
First. free coinage Of silver.
Second. All paper currency to be issued
and its volume controlled by the Gov
eminent, and TO be legal tender.
Third, No more Government bonds.
Free silver itself is not as bad as the
second proposition, which commits to the
Government all our paper currency. In
deed, the two are Siamese twins Of folly.
The demand for free silver to-day is
almost entirely due TO the fact that our
paper money is restricted to Government
issues in one form or another. If we
could get our people TO insist on free
banking, with note issues. the require
ments Of the country for currency would
be satisfied and the standard of value
would not be debasel.
There Is one comfort IN this movement
1t Will draw away from the Democratic
party all manner of wild men and leave
those who, though free silverites, are
amenable to reason. and all those who
believe that however desirable a bimetal-
lie system may be it is d practical i'm
possibility at any rate with any perma-
nency, for full tender money.
