ually bends, the bones ache, while de-
crepitude and helplessness prema-
turely take possession of the body.
Under this treatment, it is but short
step from vigor and health to q pair
of crt1tcl1es. With this wreck of the
system often comes falling of the hair
and eyebrows, loss of finger nails,
and decay of the bones-a condition
most horrible. This is no overdrawn
picture, for the world to-day is full of
these hobbling 1nercuria1 wrecks.
Contagious Blood Poison is the most
horrible of all diseases, and has been
appropriately called the curse of man
kind. Until the discovery of s. S. S.,
it was incurab1e. It has always baf-
fed the doctors, and it is in this dis
ease that the evils of mercury and
potash are most common, because
these drugs are given in such large
doses in an effort to counteract the
poison. While they succeed in bott1ing
up the poison in the system, 1t always
breaks forth again, attacking some
delicate organ, frequently the mouth
and throat, filling them with eating
sores. S. S. S. is the only known cure
for this terrible disease.
1t is the same in other diseases OF
the blood. Scrofu1a, Eczema, Cancer,
Rheumatism, all are given the same
treatment by the physicians-mercury
and potash, and the result as above set
forth is always the same.
We offer remedy purely vegetable,
powerful in its effect, yet harmless in
every way. For fifty years S. S. S.
has been curing blood diseases, from
the most violent to the mi1dest case,
after all other treatment failed. It is
guaranteed purely vegetable, and one
thousand dollars reward is offered for
proof to the contrary. 1t is,a real
blood remedy for real blood troubles,
and never fails to cure Contagious
Blood Poison, Scrofu1a, Eczema, Rheu-
.natism, Cancer, or any other disease
of the blood. If you have a blood dis
ease, take remedy which will not
injure you. Beware of mercury don't
do violence 20 your system. Don't get
bottled up!

degrade It. Yet, In spite of nil this. rs
soon as tho menace of war that hunc
over every business WAS lifted wages
mounted upward Mt even ratio with tho
increase in prices. Mr.. Carlisle could
have found a more apt illustration in
the history OF the decade that proceeded
the beginning of the war. Within n
few years the mines poured out an
amount of gold exceeding tho prcvi.
ous production for two centuries.
The value of gold was falling every
year and every month and price,
rising steadily and continuously. Tho
effect was precisely the same ms If
another and chcaper metal had been
substituted for gold. Did this fact
cause any violent alarm? Yes,
II created panic among the money
lenders and those enjoying Gxod in.
comes. They clnmored for the dc.
monetizntion OF gold then in much tho
same way that the same clnss now
howl for the destruction OF silver. But
Ill spite Of this progrrssive depreciation
OF rold II was un era of the rrcutest
and most general prosperity the world
nus ever seen. Labor was more fully
employed, factories were never idle,
agriculture was hourishing. Tho
workingmen never had cause to repeat
the curse which tho money-lcndsrs OF
that pcriod uttered against appreciated
gold. The past 2S years has seon n
larger increnso In the ranks OF idle la-
Dor, larger reduction In tho profits
OF legitimate business and moro gen.
eral distress among the farmers thun
any like period OF the century.
Mr. Cnrlisle holds up another scare.

obligations held abroad would bo de.

of their debts" Ono point In this con.
nection to be considered is that nobody
can compel tho puymont of obligations
before they nro due nor compel their
payment In gold unless IL In 80 nomi-
mated in the bond; IL IL Ia so
nominated the creditor is safe

OPINi0N OF JAMES G. ELAINE.

AS there are u great many al.
mirers of the late james G. Blaine
in Tazewell county who are at pres.
ent engaged in calling Democrats
"Anarchists," "Populists," "and 9th
or pet names, We publish the fol
lowing showing the position occu-
pied by their former idol. ~ believe
the struggle now going on in this
country and in other countries for
u single gold standard would, if
successful, produce widespread dis
aster in and throughout the com
mercicl world. The destruction of
silver as money, and establishing
gold as the sole unitof value, must
have ~ ruinous effect on all forms
OF property except those invest
ments which yield fixed return
in money. Those would be enor-
mously enhanced in value and
would gain disproportionate and
unfair advantage over every other
species of property. If, as the
most reliable statistics affirm, there
are nearly s7,6OO,OOO,OOO of coin or
bullion in the world, very equally
divided between gold and silver,
it is impossible to strike silver out
of existence as money without re-
suits that will prove distressing to
millions and utterly disastrous to
tens of thousands. | believe gold
and silver coin to he the money of
the constitution; indeed, the mon
ey of the American people anterior
to the constitutions, which the great
organic law recognized as quite
independent of its own existence.
No power was conferred OH congess
to declare either metal should not
be money. Congress has, there
fore, in my judgment, no power TO
demonetize either. If, therefore,
silver has been demonetized, am
in favor of remonctizing it. If it's
coinage has been prohibited, am
i'll favor of ordering it te br rcsum
ed. i am in favor of having it en-
larged."

says: ut may be pleasure to You
to know the high esteem in which
Chamberlain's medicines are hold by
the people of your own state, where
they must be best known. An aunt
of mine, who resides at Dexter, Iowa,
was about to visit me n few wears
since, and before leaving homo wrote
me, asking me if they were sold here,
stating if they were not she would
bring n quantity with her, as she did
not like to be without them" Tie
medicines referred to are Chamber
lains Cough Remedy, famous for it's
cures of colds and Group, Chamber
lains Pain Balm for rheumatism, lame
back, pains in the side and chest, and
Chamberlain's Collie, Cholera and Di.
arrhoea Remedy for bowel complaint
These medicines have been in con.
stane use in Iowa tor almost a quar-.
ter OF a century. The people have
learned that they are articles of groat
worth and merit, and unequaled by
any other. They are for sale here by
A. e. Hargrave Druggist.
