A TALK ABOUT BEER
When Certain Effects Follow Beer
Drinking, Then Look Out.
WHAT 1T MAY INDICATE
How Beer Affects Various People-A
Strange Fact Familiar to Most Doctors,
But Not to the Average Man Who
Quaffs the Foaming Lager.
Drink beerl Don't drink beerl

Drink beer Don't drink beer!
This seems like very contradictory
advice, but, nevertheless. 1t is the con-
densed opinions OF two great classes OF
people. There are some who believe that
"a glass of beer is healtbful, invlgorat-
ing beverage. There are others who re-
gard beer as a sort OF disguised poison.
And the strangest thing about 1t Us that
both opinions may be right under certain
conditions.
The fact of the matter is that a glass
of beer may be either beneht or
curse, according to the health OF the FER
son Who drinks it. If q man or woman
is in sound health it may do good. Ii.
on the other hand. there is weak spot
in the liver or kidneys. injury Will result
from the drinking. One of the greatest
proofs that liver complaint is more COM
mon than we suspect is the oft-repeated
remark of beer drinkers: 81 wish hadn t
taken that glass"
In this way, beer acts as barometer
which shows the state of the health. If
you drink glass of beer and soon after
commence to feel that something Is
wrong in the small of your lack, or have
dull, heavy feeling, a bad taste In the
mouth, and perhaps, the first stages OF a
headache, you may be sure that your
liver and kidneys need prompt attention.
Neglect the warning. and more serious
results are bound to follow sooner or later.
These great vital organs are the first
to indicate disease, and when they are
out of order the miserable sensations
above described are sure to be felt.
When this IS the case, it is cheaper and
wiser to remedy matters before more Sc
rious consequences follow. Then it is
time to tone up the body. purify the
blood and restore healthy action to the
liver and kidneys. For this purpose
there has never been but one remedy, and
that is Warmers Safe Cure. which for
years has been recognized as the greatest
and best health Iestorer in the world.
Physicians everywhere acknowledge 1T.
Thousands of men and women gladly tes-
tify to its splendid effects. 1t is, and al
WAYS has been, unsurpassed.

PREMIUM ON GOLD PAID
On Metal Obtained Outside of the Sub.
Treasury
The Syndicate Believed to Be Continuing
Its Accommodations Of the Yell
low Metal

NEW YORK, August 16.-The Herald
says the most important fact that has
developed in the financial situation is
that small premium is being paid for
gold obtained from sources outside the
subtreasury. An inquiry revealed the
fact that very little of this gold is shipped
to Europe, inasmuch as the remitters
could withdraw the necessary gold in
coin from the subtreasury without pay
ing any premium.
So far as can:be learned the premium is
chiefly paid for essay Office bars or bars
that come from private smelters in the
west. The premium in many cases is
paid for the assay office checks, given
when the gold was deposited in the keep
ing of the government. This amounts to
the same thing as taking the gold itself.
It'll mere conjecture how many, if
any, are paying premium. but the fact
is known that the gold syndicate on
Tuesday last deposited at the assay office
$500. 600 in gold bullion and receivedassay
office checks for it. OF this amount $780,
0C0 consisted of private smelter and the
remainder of assay office bars.
The conclusion to be drawn from this
transaction is that the syndicate is con-
tinulng its accumulation of gold, which
is supposed to: have been going on for
some time, but the extent OF which, has
been carefully concealed.
OF course all this does not indicate
that gold rules at premium, for there Is
no difficulty in obtaining it at the SUBJ

THE RAISIN GROWERS
A Hopeful Feeling Among Them, Because
Packers Must Come to Terms

A Hopeful Feeling Among Them, Because
Packers Must Come to Terms
FRESNO. August 16.-There is more
hopeful feeling among the raisin growers
of Fresno county at the present time than
there has been at any time during the
past three years. The refusal to consisn
crops to commission packers has been
quite general, with the result that certain
packers were unable to get any raisins at
all, and consequently were compelled to
buy for cash. 1t is known that several
other firms have but few contracts, and
the prospect now is that NEST of the
raisin crop of this vicinity will be con-
tracted for cash during the next thirty
days. W
The first cash offers were only cents
pound in the sweat box, but the buyers
were unable to get any contracts at that
price, and an advance has already been
made. George Osborne of the Mason d
Osborne vineyard today sold his crop OF
Muscat raisins to Colonel Forsythe for 2l5
cents pound. 1t is likely that good
many raIslns can be bought at this fig
ure, although majority OF growers will
bold for cents.
A considerable nun Dor of cooperative
packing associations have recently been
organized, and the entire output of these
associations will be sold through GEN.
tral organization. Altogether the pros
poets are good for some lively times in
raisin selling and the practical abandon
ment of the commission system.

MORTON'S OBJECT LESSON
Silverites Of the Agricultural Depart.
ment Paid in Silver
A Good Deal Of Kicking From People Who
Like the White Metal Only
In Theory

WASHING TON, August 16.-Secretary
Norton of the agricultural department.
gave what he regarded as an object les
son to the employees of his department
yesterday. He heard arguments by many
OF his subordinates In favor OF silver.
Yesterday being the semi-monthly pay
day, he ordered the paymaster of the de-
partment to pay out $1,000 in silver coin,
this money weighing sixty pounds. The
silver coin was paid to all the employees
about the grounds of the agricultural de-
partment, 10 messengers, and we'll known
silverites IN various positions IN the de-
partment. Unless .Mr. Morton receives
n petition to the contrary, it is expected
that silver will be paid out again and
again TO the men no are known to be ia
vorable to it.
There was n good deal OF kicking
among the employees, and a good many
of them have indicated to the psymaster
that they want paper money ON their
next pay day. One of the men who was
given several pounds Of the silver to carry
home last evening. remarked today: II
think Secretary Morton is very unfair in
what he terms his object lesson. He
might as welligive us nickel pieces or cop
pers. and If we protest that il is an incon-
yenient form of money to carry, he might
say by that protest that we are not In
favor of copper and nickel coiu. AS a
matter Of fact il man were paid. say
$4,000, in gold coin, which he would be
asked to carry home with him, he would
protest as strongly as we do about being
paid our monthly salaries in silver dol.

The ViaiIant Drydocked

BROOKLY YN Aug. l6.-The yacht Vigi-
liant was drydocked today In the Erie
basin. John Hyslop. the yacht CLUBS
treasurer. had a long talk with Willard.
after which he began preparations for tho
measuring. The tightening of the boat
was then begun. After the Vigilant had
been relieved of the extra weight which
will not be on board during the races of
next,week, she looked much lighter. Her
white sides were good bit further away
from the water and at least a foot of the
bronze bottom could be seen. She seemed
to be about foot and half less on the
load water line than when she lay at an
chor at Bay Ridge and it would nobet
surprising If she got more time from the
Defender than has been estimated. The
Defender was delayed by fog; instead OF
reaching the dock at high tide, arrived
too late to be docked at the same time as
the Vigilant. She was placed on the dock
at the next high water. The boats meas
ures will not be made public.
