The murderer who. at dead of r;,h>
creeps, stealthily out to bury the dead and
,nangled body of his victim inspires men
with horror and dread. There IS a murderer
abroad who yearly Stays one-sixth OF all the
human race who go down to untiIuely deaths
This dread monster Is called corsump,;on
The approach OF consumption IS slow and
insidIous. FiTst there Is a slight disorder
OF the dlgestlon- The appetite is poor and
the r~ounshlng propeTties Of the food ave no,
properly assinilated. The blood becomes
thin and impure. The body begins to starve
Old tissues Of the body are not properIv r..

Fun Over the I,r~sd.

We had the gantlct yet to run. n the
firing q; the communists Was still heavy
IN the neighborhood. Til. bullets were
whistling 30 angrily down one of the
streets which cut the Rue de Ia Bi.n.
faisance at right angles that a number
vi servant girls who wished to go TO n
aker's shop ON the other side were
afraid 10 venture over. The difficulty
was turned IN this way There were
soldiers on n side Of the dangerous
crossing and maidservants ON the other.
The maidservants threw their MONEY "a
the soldiers, and the soldiers purchased
the bread and flung 1t across to the
maids.
Ihls maneuve excited n good deal II
merriment in spite Of the danger with
which II was attended. At times a girl
would throw n piece Of money short.
and a solder would have to fish for IL
with his bsyonet. and even. amid peals
OF laughter. venture out to pick IL up.
To see the men and women engaged in
this occupation one might easily have
thought they were INDUCING IN some
m pasfime like hunt the slipper.

They Dare Not Saw So,

The goldbugs tell US that gold is the
money of civilization. Is IL not strange
that the Republican party did not find
that out at ST. Louis? 1t does not say
SO. The goldbuss tell us thai this ma
ton has outgrown the silver standard.
Isn't 1t strange hat the Republican
party did not find that out? The gold
bugs tell Us that you cannot have two
yardsticks. Isn't IL strange that the
Republican party did not find tina out?
They tell US hat the free coinage of
silver is simply in the interest OF the
mine owners Isn't it strange tina the
Republicans did not find that out:
They tell US that free coinage is de-
sired by men who want to pay their
debts IN cheap dollars. Isn't it strange
tha n Republican party did not find
that out? How do you know tha the
Republican party did not find that out?
Why. because their platform pledges
the Republican party to get rid of the
gold standard. The Republican party
pledges Itself to substitute a double
standard for the single standard-Mr.
