Needs attention at this time. If you
are tired, weak and nervous, it is clear
that your blood is impure, and with
out doubt there has been too much
over-work or strain on brain and
body. The course of treatment fol
such a condition is plain and simple
The blood must first be purified SO
that the nervous system, and in fact
all the organs will be fed upon pure
blood. Intelligent people without
number have testified that the best
blood purifier, nerve tonic and

Sarsaparilla. Nervousness, loss Of
sleep and general debility all vanish
when Bood's Sarsaparilla is persist

About Fruit Growing.

in the hills North of town. Already
the peach trees have about played
out, while the apple trees are vigor-
GUS, and bearing finely. There are
very large apple trees in the orchard
still bearing, from eighty to 100 years
old. Why will not these lands
bought at SIS per acre pay set in APP
pie trees, and by spraying insure
fruits Last year my attention was
called to pear tree twenty years old,
which had never born a, crop. In
June / cut the bark loose all around,
and stripped it off to the limbs. 1t is
now full of pears with bright new
bark. Rabbits were very destructive
to young trees last winter, but they
have no fancy for "axle grease" which
protects my trees thoroughly by one
application each winter. My "Way-
land" plum thicket on poor land will
feed more hogs than four times such
land in corn, and needs only to be

"coINr HURTS THEM.
1t Has Turned the Flanks of the Enemies
of Bimetalism.

1t Has Turned the Flanks of the Enemies
of BImetalism
The Eastern press has suddenly
awakened to the fact that "Coin's Fl
nancial School" is making serious in
roads on the forces of gold power
The little book appears to have turn
ed the tanks of the enemies of bimet-
alism, and to have thrown them up
on the defensive. They find, how
ever, that "Coin's" tactics are as hard
to combat as were the maneuvers of
Napoleon by the venerable Field
Marshall of Austria. Their method
of attack shows that they are at their
wits end, and demonstrates clearly
the weakness of the monometallic ar
gument.
After exhausting their stock of adj
iectives in denouncing the book, in
which terms as ''pernicious" and
pestiferous" are freely used, they as
set with much junction. that "t oin's"
lectures were never delivered, and
they introduced defiant notes from
such staunch goldbugs as Lyman j..
Gage and John r. Walsh in proof of
the fact. Even an idiot could see
from the manner and style OF the
book that no such actual course of
lectures was ever delivered although
the editors of the New York Herald
and the New York Evening Post
have apparently not been able to dis
cover this fact, but neither Mr.. Gage
nor Walsh have dared deny that
they have used the very words and
arguments which Coin" puts in their
mouths, and to which they are dis
Greet enough not to attempt any re-
ply.
Right here is where "Coin" hurts
them-they attempt no reply to the
arguments. He states the gold
standard position fully and fairly,
Just as its advocates state it, and he
then proceeds to riddle it with facts
and figures in manner SO effective
that the brilliant editors of the gold
bug organs have not yet found the
courage to attempt reply. Nor
will they ever do so. "Coin" has pre-
sented the whole question in man
ner so unanswerable, and at the same
time SO catching and so convincing
that it is not to be wondered at that
the goldbug press is wild with rage

The Dumping Ground Theory.

Perhaps the most plausible argu'
ment, the shrewdest plea, advanced
by the single standard lovers in de-
Tense of their unworthy cause is the
declaration that the opening of our
mints to free coinage means the con-
version of the United States into a
silver dumping ground for the world.
While the Times does not believe
that any such good fortune awaits us,
it is we'll enough to investigate the
dumping ground theory.
1t is conceded on all hands that
Europe has no surplus silver, and
this position is impregnably fortified
by the fact that she yearly purchases
large quantities of bullion from silver
producing nations for domestic con-
sumption. The amount of silver
bullion and bar-silver last year ex-
ported to Europe from American sill
YER mines amounted to SOL 600, 600.
Besides this, the European coinage
ratio is 155 to ], and the American 16
to 1, thus entailing a positive loss to
the European silver holder who sends
his coin or bullion to American mints.
In addition, freight charges, occa-
sional LOSSES in shipments, abrasions,
to separate foreign alloy and
to infuse American alloy, is
estimated at about thirty per cent. on.
each dollars worth of foreign silver.
1t is entirely safe to say that there
will be, there can be, no dump of sill
yer from Europe.
There are only two countries in the
world which produce a surplus of
silver. These nations are Mexico and
the United States. The first named
last year sold her total pro-
luction of silver, with the exception
If $6,oO0,00O, to Europe. With this
six million of dollars she is expected
20 deluge the United States and sup
ply her own coinage demands.
Where is the silver that is to be
dumped coming from7 1t is not In |
sight; it is not in existence. 1t is to be
found only in the imagination of
those who, for purpose or through
ignorance, are shouting against sill
yer.
In 1898, silver to the amount of
ST., 555,757 it is officially announced
by the Director of the Mint, was pro-
duced in the mines of the United
States. Of this amount, $5l 100000 |
in silver ores and bars was exported |
10 Europe, rand 100000 consumed
in manufacturers and arts during the
year, leaving only $13,OO0,OOO in sur
plus silver to be accounted for.
These figures, collated from the
highest financial authority known, are
simply indisputable and, to every |
unbiased mind convincing. There isno
but rather de6ciency,of sill
yer at present; with the opening of
The minis to free coinage SO great |
would be the demand for silver, that
t would at once go to a parity with
gold in intrinsic value.
There is nothing in the dumping
ground theory, just as there is moth
ng to the harm OF silver in any of the
arguments brought forward by the
,uzzing gold bugs.-Glasgow Times.
