Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery are all
that is niece ssary to convince fair-lIlii;6ed
people of its tTanscendent merit They
are as follows:
All diseases come from germs. The germs
get into the blood, propagate and increase
In the blood, which carries them all over the
body. When they find Il weak spot they
stick to the weak spot 1t becomes dis
eased spot and the disease is called by the
name corresponding to its location i'll the
body. The cause is the same for nearly all
diseases All impurities are germs, or breed
germs. Impure blood means germ filled
blood. Kill the germs, eliminate the i'm
purities, enrich the blood and it will force
itself into the diseased spot and strengthen
1t, and give it power to throw of the germs
that exist there. DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
tcal Discovery is designed TO do this-that
is the theory. The facts are these-tens Of
thousands of people have used the " Dis
covery." 1t used to be sold with the under
standing that if it didn't cure, il should be
returned, and the money refunded No

TESTED BY A STAR.
Old Time Calculations for Measuring Dis
tances and Correcting Time.
(From the Detroit Free Press


Some very old printing that was
brought to light the other day contains
| curious suggestions for making certain
| calculations that will interest many peo-
| pie. One of the suggestions runs to the
| effect that person may ascertain his
rate Of walking by the aid of Il string
| with Il. piece of lead ut one end of it. The
string should be knotted ut distances of
Al feet, which distance is the 120th part
of an English mile and bears the same
proportion to Il mile that half n minute
bears to an hour. II the traveller when
going Mt his usual gait, drops the lead,
letting the string slip through his hand,
the number of knots which have passed
i'll half minute indicate the number of
inches he walks in an hour
An easy method of correctly regulating
Il timepiece by the stars is suggested as
follows:
AS the motion of the earth with regard
to the fined stars Chose that twinkle) is
uniform, timepieces can in n most simple
manner be correctly regulated by tho
stars with greater facility than by the
| sun. Choose Il south window from which
any fixed point such as Il chimney, side
OF Il building, etc, may. be seen. TO the
side of the window attach IL piece of card
| board having Il small hole in it, in such II
manner chat by looking through the hole
toward the edge Of the elevated object
some fixed star may he seen.
| The progress of the star must be
watched and the instant it vanishes be
hind the fixed point the observer must
| note the exact time it disappears The
| following night the same star will vanish
| behind the same object three minutes and
| ffty-siX seconds sooner ii Il timepiece
mark O'Clock when the star vanishes
one night, the following night it will in
| dictate three minutes and fifty. six seconds
less than .. If the timepiecc he faster or
slower than the indication of the star,
| then it has gained or lost the indicated
ditfercnc. If several cloudy nights follow
| the first observation of the star it is only
necessary to multiply three minutes fifty
six seconds by the number of days that
have elapsed since the observation, and
the product deducted from the hour the
clock indicates the first night clear enough
for the second observation gives the time
the clock or watch ought to show, The
same star can only be observed during Il
few weeks, for as it gains nearly an hour
IN fortnight, it will in a short time
come to the meridian in broad daylight
and become invisible.
In making the observation care must
be taken that Il planet is not chosen in
stead of star Additional to the fact
that the light of fixed stars wrinkles.
while that of planets is steady because
rc1ected,a sure means notwithstanding be-
tween them is to first watch a certain star
attcntively for Il few nights. If il changes
its place with regard to the other stars it
is planet, since the fixed stars appear to
maintain the same relative positions with
regard to each other.

To tho Voters
of the
Sixth Congressional
District
of Virginia.

Many of YOU are aware that have con-
tended that the money question, and not
the tariff, is the issue in this campaign
While have cndeayored to show that the
restoration of silver to its place as money
metal is the real issue, my Republican
friends have contendcd equally as siren
uously that protection and not finance is
the issue.
Now, what are some of the things that
are transpiring in the closing days of the
campaign? Your nominee, the gifted
and eloquent j Hampton Hoge, has just
withdrawn from the canvass, and SAYS
that he will not be a candidate for Con-
gress, and you will he asked to vote for
Duval Radford, Grover. Cleveland

which is as follows:
1--WE therefore denounce protection and
its ally, free coinage of silver,as Il scheme
for the personal profit of n few Mt the ex-
pense of the many. and oppose the two
parties which stand for these as hostile
to the people Of the republic, whose food
and shelter, comfort and property are
attacked by higher taxes and deprecated
money!
The following are the resolutions
| adopted by the Republican district COM
mittee for the Sixth district of Virginia,
ut its meeting in Roanoke city, October
81, 1896:

A CHINESE TRICK.
A Case In which An Yau Has a
Double.

Case In which All lau Has n
Double.
Last Sunday morning Detective
KAPPA and others laided Chi
nesc gambling den and captured
about dozen celestials. They
we're taken to the Station House
and bailed out by one All Ho,
who put up S12 cash for each of
them.
When the case was called in
Judge de la Vergne's court this
morning Judge Robertson ap-
peared for the defense and De-
putty Marshal Hitchcock prose
cuted.
The first move made by the
prosecution was to ask that All
Yau's bail be forfeited on the
ground that another man was
present in his place. Ah Fat, the
Chinese policeman, and Detective
KAPPA both testified that the man
who answered to the name All
Yau in court was not the man
they arrested. They were both
well acquainted with the All Yau
who had been bailed out on Sun.
day and we're positive that he was
much bigger man than the one
in court and further they both
knew that lie was employed on the
Claudine as fireman. Other cor
roborative evidence was intro
duced.
For the defense the man who
represented All Yau took the
stand and detailed infinitely the
particulars of the arrest and the
subsequent searching and bailing
out in the pc ice station.
The Court decided that the All
Yau in court was not the All Yau
who should have been there and
ordered him to appear tomorrow
morning and show cause why he
should not be committed for con-
tempt. The real All Yau will find
Detective KAPPA or someone else
nth warrant W Iiting for him on
the arrival of the Claudine, when
he will be given a chance to ex-
plain matters.
A change of perjury has been
added to All Yau's account.
