It's quite common for some trades people
TO persuade customer TO take some other
article instead OF that called for II is
sometimes called substitution. but it's
cheating the customer out Of that which
he wanted. It is always done for mean
motive. The dealer who does this has no
consideration for his customer It's like
getting rid Of something in which the
dealer himself was swindled, and yet he
must get his money out oft by cecsiving
the customer. We say to the readers OF
this Journal that when YOU ask for Sim
mons Liver Regulator don't take anything
else instead-it's the best liver medicine.
The advertising is increasing the demand
for it, and the people who call for it should
get it, especially so because there is no
liver medicine like Simmons Liver Regu-
latOr. Insist upon having it, and note that
the Red z is on the front Of the package.

The New Year.
From the Pittsburg Dispat

From the Pittsburg Dispatch.
Very young and fresh and tender
Is the newborn year;
But he'll learn deal of mortalS
Ere next Christmas time is here.
Now he's wrapped in sheets of parchment
White as driven snow,
For inscribing resolutions
BY all men, high and low.
But the parchment will be blotted,
Lost or thrown aside,
And the resolutions, fiouted;
For old habits will abide.
Then the youth will take his station
Among the century's years,
And change his garments with the season
Nor stop for any tears.
AT last he'll grow aweary,
And lame and halt and blind,
And when he's sadly buried,
His success We will find.

Georgia.

Some rather sensational testimony was
given before the coroner's jury investiga-
ting the Baltimore theater panic and
tragedy the other day Jacob Schneider
man testified that a gang of fifty persons
his own people-were responsible for
the horror. 1t was their intention, he
said, to cause a stampede for the purpose
of robbery-stealing jewelry. money,
clothing or anything else they could take
from the excited crowd. IT does not APP
pear that the coroner placed much reli-
ance in the mans story; still it may be
true. There are fends devilish
enough TO do just such work. and they
walk in and out before men every day.
There is a probability that the grand
jury will take hold of Schneiderman's
story and see what there is in it.

fourth as large as the city of Philadel-

A great deal of cotton is being shipped
from New Orleans and cities of Texas
direct to Yokohama. 1t goes to San Fran
cisco by the Southern Pacific and thence
by steamer. Japan is steadily increasing
the number of her spindles. In 1894.
she had 10000 spindles, now she has
10000 1t is understood that she pro
poses, first, to supply .her' own market
with cotton goods. and then become a
competition in the markets of the world.
She has excellent material out of which

patient and slIilfull workers and they re-
ceive remarkably low wages 1t is es-
timated that the japanese will take $4,000
bales of our cotton this year.

1t is difficult to see where there is room
for a row between Atlanta and Philadel-
phia with regard to the liberty bell.
Philadelphia is the custodian of the bell,
which was loaned to the Cotton States
and International Exposition, and not to
the city of Atlanta. 1t is undoubtedly
the right of the Philadelphians to provide
the escort to the bell and to say by what
route it shall be returned to it's resting
place in the Philadelphia city hall. If the
story of the attempt to use the bell for
advertising purposes in Atlanta is true,
the Philadelphians have just cause to
be indignant.

Senator Hin gave the Senate some
plain. common sense talk the other day
What he said, in effect, was this: The
President has authority to issue bonds
and the bonds he issues will be payable
in gold The faith Of the nation will he
pledged TO pas them in gold. The Pres
ident will issue bonds whenever it be-
comes Necessary to DO so to restore the
gold reserve--iD other words. to maintain
the national credit. But unless congress
expressly says such bonds shall be paid
in gold the government will have TO pay
a much higher rate of interest on them
an unnecessarily high rate. Why should
not congress, Senator Hill said, pass a
joint resolution TO the effect that all the
bonds of the government are payable in
gold or silver at the option of the holder?
WIN congress pass such a resolution?
There isn't the least probability that it
will. 1t prefers to play politics. If the
last congress had passed such a resolu-
ton 1t would have saved the country
$l6,OOOOOO on the last issue of bonds. This
congress can save the country more than
that amount by passing a resolution Of
that sort.
And why not pass it? 1t is based on
common sense and common honesty. Ii
has nothing whatever to do with the
silver question. The passage of it would
neither hasten nor retard free silver coin
age.
Is it not the purpose Of congress to pay
the bonds in gold? 1t would be dishonest
non to do so. If it is the purpose of con-
gress to act honestly, why not say that
the bonds will be paid in gold if the hold
ers of them want gold? If congress would
put itself on record as favoring an hon
est policy in respect to the bonds, mill
ions of dollars would be saved to the peo-
ole.

Russia silver standard country, po-
ltely offers to come to the relief of the
United States and lend us a few millions
of gold" says the Memphis Commercial
Appeal. The inference which the Com
mercial-Appeal wishes to be drawn is
that if this country were on the silver
standard it would not need gold While
that might be true, we should have two
kinds of dollars, one of which would be
worth just about twice as much as the
other, and the cheaper of which would
always be forced upon the working peo-
pie. AS to Russia being a silver standard
country, the fact is that silver is merely
the nominal standard. The actual cur
rency is paper. the depreciation of which
is measured by the gold standard. Gold,
therefore, is the actual measure of value.

ret1re into deep Water, and then their Dur-
suerS are compelled to wade up to their
chins. An alternative to this plan is to
take a raft out and bangle arms and legs
in the water. An expert catches many
just as they are fastening on, and so
saves a certain amount of blood This is
an important item. A good fisher can. if
he is careful, go on for four or five hours
before he gets exhausted from loss of
blood. In that case he will have caught
nearly 200 leeches. 1t is a funny. almost
uncanny, sight to see the unhealthy-look-
ing men wading through marshes and
swamps and dirty streams, their arms and
legs bare, poking about among the rushes
and turning the messy pebbles over with
their toes in the hopes of stirring IN
some colony of leeches. Every now and
then stop, and you see them raise the
black, bespecked leg and pick away until
the furious sucking on the other causes
them to bring that up hastily for inspec-
ton, while the former takes its place as
bait.
