Affection.

We sometimes meet with men who
seem 10 think that any indulgence Of
affectiOnate feeling is weakness. They
will return from n journey, and greet
their families with 4 distant dignity,
and move among their children with
the cold and lofty splendor of an ice
berg, surrounded with its broken frag
ments. There is hardly a more unnat-
ural si'nt on earth than one of those
families without n heart. A father had
better eXtinguish his boys eyes than
take away his heart. Who that has eX-
perienced the joys of friendship, and
values sympathy and affection, would
not rather lose all that is beautiful in
Natures scenery than be robbed of the
hidden treasure of his heart? Who
would not rather follow his child TO the
grave than entomb his parental affec
ton? Cherish then, your hearts best
affections. Indulge in the warm and
gushing emotions of paternal love.
Think ii not WEAKNESS. Teach your
children 10 love, to love the rose, the
robin; to love their parents, their God.
Let il be the studied object of their
domestic culture to give them warm
hearts, ardent affections. Bind your
whole family together by strong cords.
You cannot make them too strong.

Money is depository or reservoir
of values, and this is one of its most
indispensable qualities. When a
man performs a weeks service he is
entitled to the value of his earnings.
He desires it in form that will sup
ply the necessities of himself and
family. The mau whom he served
does not possess the desired COM
modities, nor is it necessary that he
should. But he hands the laborer a
ten dollar note or coin. In either
form it is an order on general society
for value, and all men with values for
sale will be glad to honor that paper
or golden check. Usually in large
amounts they prefer the paper. Ell.
ther of them is reservoir of values
to tho amount named, and every
owner of values is anxious to become
its possessor. Washington Kas. }

A PECULIAR CASE.
PHYSICIANS PUZZLED BY THE
EXPERIENCE OF MRS. BOWEN.
The Episcopal Hospital Said She Had
Consumption.

(From the Record, Philadelphia. Pa)
Last July the Episcopal hospital adj
mitted woman whose pale and em9nci-
ated face and racking cough proclaimed
her the victim of consumption. She
gave her name as Mrs. VIM. G..
Bowen, residence, 1S49 Meighan ST..
Philadelphia. The case was dag
nosed and she was told plainly that
she was in an advanced state of con-
sumption. The examining physician
even showed her the sunken place in her
breast where the cavity in her lung was
supposed to exist. She went home to
her family. broken, disheartened wom-
Ihat was the beginning of the story, the
end as told by Mrs. Bowen, who no
longer expects to die, to a reporter fol.
lows:
THE first symptoms of consumption
came in the form of terrible sweats,
night and day. From April until
September wcs constantly cold and
Kept wrapped up in blankets through
the hottest weather. A terrible cough
took possession Of me, my breast was
sore to the slightest touch. and my
limbs were like cold clay. The hardest
ruDDlng with the cOarsest towel would
not create the slightest flush, and the
least exertion would exhaust me.
i went to the hospital in July and
suCy OidSHOSeQ my case as above stat
cd. 1t was when the clouds were the
darkest that the first CLINT of sunshine
came. Mr.. Shelmerdine. a friend, who
lives around at 1874 Clementine St, said
TO me one day, Mrs. Bowen did you ever
try Dr. Williams Pink Pills for Pale
People. / had never heard of the medi-
cine, but In my condition could not turn
a deaf ear to anything that offered re-
lief. 1t was after considerable thought
and investigation that / concluded to
discontinue all other medicine, in
Guiding cod liver oil, and depend
entirely upon Pink Pills. 1 began to
take the pills. at first with but little en-
enlargement. The first sign of improve
ment was warmth and tingling sem
sation in my limbs. Finally the cough
disappeared. my chest lost its soreness
and L began to gain flesh until 1 was
fifteen pounds heavier. All this / owe
to DR.. Williams Pink Pills and cannot

,Tne worlds product of gold in IS.
s55 was $l55, $50. OO0. In 1892 it had
fallen to $l3S, S,96l.OO0. The gold
product in the United States was $685.
lcfOO, 600 in 1853. In 1892 it had fallen
TO $33. 100000. Thus it will be seen
that the gold product of the United
States has decreased about one-half,
and that OF the world is much less in
the 40 years. Against this decline in
the gold product we find that the pop
utation of the United States has in
creased during the time from $4,000,
ooo to about $4,000. 900. and the
worlds population has probably in
creased in about the same ratio.
Now. through the influence of the
bond holding. banking and money
power of the world, silver has been
demonetized and gold made the only
legal tender in payment of debts in
AL the leading commercial nations OF
the earth. What is the natural re-
snaS?
Had the population and business OF
the United States decreased one-hali
aU the past 40 years, as gold has, then
the value OF gold and property would
have remained equal. but with the
population and business vastly in
creased and gold reduced one-half in
its annual production, besides the
present large output being used in
the arts and dentistry, it is no won
der that the demand for gold has i'm
mensely increased, and like any other
commodity. as the demand increases
the price goes up. and just in proper
tion as gold goes up all other prop
erty goes down.
Had the free coinage of silver and
its legal tender qualities not been de-
stroyed, then our debt paying cur
rency would be double what it is now,
as the amount of silver coin and bull
ion in the world is about equal to
gold. To show the effects of q single
standard we submit the following
statistics:
In 1864. when we had plenty OF
money, there were only 495 business
failures. footing up $4,000;
while in 1898, with a scarcity of
money, we had 100000 failures, ag-
gregating $3. 900, 600. 600.

as they are government statistics:
