A frequent cause Of kidney con- plaints is long continued costiveness, by which the bowels grow torpid, closing the main avenue of excretion. The kidneys. called upon for double service, quickly become diseased, for they are very delicate organs. These are conditions which, if neglected, may rapidly become fatal. There is sound sense in the old injunction, keep the head cold, the feet warm, and the bowels open, the most im- portant being the last And remem- Der that simply opening them is not enough; any violent purgative, even diarrhoea, will do that. What you require for health is to stimulate and strengthen the liver and kidneys in or- der that the bowels may work natur- ally. To effect this, no medicine equals Ayers Cathartic Pills. They do their work painlessly, thoroughly, and quickly, and leave the intestines in an active and vitalized condition. As a safe and reliable family physic they have no equal. Every dose effective. Ayers Pills were awarded the Chi cago Worlds Fair medal and di- ploma.

SILVER IN 1884.

SILVER IN 1884.
 Whenever a gold standard man de- Sires to leave the impression that he has been Investigating the money ques- tion. ahe comes forward with the state ment that silver was demonetized in 1884.
 We'll, the statement, by whomsoever made. is a fraud, and has nothing whatever to go upon. The latest au thor of the statement is John Sher- man, in a speech delivered at Colum- bus, Ohio. on the 18th of August. He made tine following remarks:
 '9The avowed purpose of the passage of the law of 1884 was to make gold the standard. This was declared by the committee of the house of repre- sentatiYes who had charge of the bill, Ef1o said in their report: The com mtttee think that the desideratum in
 
 uniform Naiue; they cannot ascertain that both metals have ever circulated simultaneously. concurrently and in diScrim inately in any country where there aTe banks or money dealers, and they entertain the conviction that the nearest approach ito an invariable standard is it's establishment in one metal, which metal shall compose ex- ciusively tdhe currency for large pay 0ents."
 T What John Sherman supposed, when he made the foregoing quotation from the commtttesPs report, was that none of his audience would take the trouble to investigate the facts. And he was doubtless right. Few men care to take the trouble to investigate for them eelves. being content to take their facts second hand But the Atlanta Con stitution took day off, looked the metter up and finds that on the very page of the committees report from which tlhe arch falsifer quotes is to be found the following paragraph, which shows what the committee meant by its reference to "one metal' as the sole standard:
 "SilVar ds the ancient currency of the United States; the metal in which the money unit is exhibited, the money generally used in foreign commerce, and thst description of the precious metals in the distribution of which we exercise an extensive agency. tThe committee. upon due consideration of all attendant circumstances, are of opinion shat the standard of value ought bo be legally and exclusively, as tt is practically, regulated in sdlverD"
 Thus it seems that the misrepre- sentation with which John Sherman prefaced his quotation is a monu- mental one. deliberately eoncocted for the purpose of deeeiving the people he was addressing. The committee instead of trying to enact the gold standard. were doing their best to enact the silver standard! The effort to reject gold failed. and congress at tempted to secure the concurrent use of both metals, as may be seen by a reference to Benton's speeches.
 Not only this, but by the act of March 3. 1S43. the silver dollars of Mexico. Peru and Bolivia were made legal tender at their nominal value, and the French 5-franc piece was made q legal tender for 93 cents.
 And yet John Sherman and those who train with him, or who are de- ceiYed by him, say that the American silver dollar, was demonetized in 1884!
