Gen. Charles T.. Buzzell, of Lakeport,
N. H., Department Commander of New
Hampshire, G. A. r., has something of in
terest to say to the people in regard to the
remarkable curative powers of DR.. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy. Few
men are more widely known than Gen.
Buzzell, who is Street Commissioner of
Lakeport, and the most prominent builder
and contractor in the state. The General
says:
'I was terribly run down in health and
as a result Of overwork, became nervous,
weak, tired ndswithout my old-time energy
and ambition. l grew so fearfully nervous
that could not rest nor sleep nights, but
would be obliged to get up and walk about
several times each night | would get tired
and nervous so easily and quickly that it
became almost impossible for me to attend
to my business At tho same time l had
most severe and distressing backache.
81 took DR.. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy and it helped me right away.
My nerves were so strengthened and invigor-
ated that the nervousness left me, and !
could again sleep soundly nights, and wake
mornings refreshed and feeling strong and
vigorous. The backache is completely cured.
am now perfectly well and better able than
ever to attend to my business. l have
recommended this wonderful remedy to
several others and it has cured them all. l

Every time you read about millions in
gold being shipped from this country to
Europe, please bear in mind that for ev-
cry dollar in gold that is shipped dollar
in greenbacks is locked up in the q. s.
treasury, causing a contraction of the
currency both ways.-Town Talk.
Every time one sees such state
ments as the foregoing, the sound
ness and practical good sense in
Mr.. Carlisles' request, that green
backs be retired from circulation,
is perfectly apparent. 1t would be
hard to compress in as few lines a
more concise statement of the
reason for the retirement of the
greenback currency than Town
Talk gives above. Let it now pro-
coed to write its reasons out in full,
and tell us why, if this endless
greenback chain is thus contracting
the currency, it would not be good
financiering policy to put stop to
the contraction.

The report of the La. State Uni

chanical college at Baton Rouge.
for the sessions of 1894-5 and 1856,
reveals the fact that this institution
wants considerable attention in the
way of additions andimprovements,
to accommodate the large number of
students who attend it. Also, the
matter of discipline and religious
and moral restraint is by no means
what it should be in an institution
of this kind. Let our Legislative
Salons give the college something
more than a superficial overhauling
at this session. An infusion of new
ideas and methods is said to be
greatly needed.

disposes of with the simple sug-
gestion that the government should
from time to time fix the price of

rub. With the question of ratio
settled the plan proposed by Mr..
Watkins, or the retention of the

would either of them probably
prove satisfactory. Mr.. Watkins
position seems to be, that, with
gold demonetized or put on the same
footing with silver, the question of
ratio between them would settle it.

query naturally arises, how are we
to determine the value of the bull

we to be governed as to the amount
of circulation to be issued on this
bullion?
