THE TARIFF CLOUD.

There is observable among the Repub
lican leaders a chastened disposition to
let sleeping tariff dogs lie. THE country
is being given assurances that only such
changes will be made..as are necessary to
produce revenue sufficient for the Govern
ment's needs. In the far West, where the
tariff ue.was worked by silver Repub
llcans to get votes against silver, this re-
treat OF the Mckinleyites from McKin-
leyism will cause disappointment, but
the people as whole would like to be-
iieve that business is to be given rest
from tariff uncertainties. However,
though it is manifestly the wish of the
President'elect and his advisers to avoid
radical action, the trusts that want more
protection for the increase of their power
and profits will have to be reckoned with.

Certainly no higher testimonial, no
greater proof of Il medicines wonder
ful power to cure can possibly be given
than is here bestowed upon Dr. Grecne's
Ncrvura blood and nerve remedy by
this most distinguished statesman and
head of the government of the state
Surely no one who is i'll, WORKOUT,
rundown, weak, nervous, discouraged
and dishcartcncd by repeated failures
to be cured can require any greater
proof, any stronger testimony that
DIR. Grecnc's Ncrvura will cure, that

fcrcr. than Lieut.. Governor Flctcher's
powerful words wherein he states that
he has personally used il in his fanlily

most wonderful curcr of disease. and
earnestly recommends its use by all
who are out of health and need mcdi-

If you are n sufferer from weakness
or disease, do not hesitate to take DIR.

such IL testimonial from so illustrious
and distinguished Statesman.
Do you think SO cmineut n man of
such high official position would lend
his name and give his emphatic advice
to use DR.. Grcenc's Nervura unless he
knew positively its great value, its
wondrous power to cure? He knows
that his words will be needed and his
advice to use this grand remedy fol-
lowed because of his high standing and
he nnhesitatingly tells the people,
speaking the welcome truth to the sick
with the voice and dignity of official
authority, that DR.. Grccnc's Ncryura
blood and nerve remedy will cure the
weak and suffering, will give health
and strength, renewed life, restored
energies and the zest and happiness of
living.
Remember also that this is no So
called patent medicine, but the pre-
scription and discovery of DR.. Greene

ccssful specialist in curing nervous and
chronic diseases, who can be consulted
without charge, personally or by letter.
