Are Your wife and children Protected

Are Your wife and Children Protected
By insurance? More than 10000, 900
people have policies. twenty-five mil
lion people are trusting to those policies
to care for them when husbands and
fathers are dead. In 1895 the companies
paid policy holders and their families
$165, 103, 61O, equivalent to gold. If
they could have paid in silver dollars,
they would have paid but little more
than half of that.
The difference would not have been
made by the companies, but by the men
who borrow gold dollars from tho COM
panies and, would repay silver dollars
The silver men wish to take half your
insurance away from your widow and
children and give it to the men who
borrowed from the companies.

Keen Yonr Nose On.

Workingmen who are being urged to
''vote for free silver to get even with
your employer" should think twice, be-
fore trying to injure the men for whom
they work. Cutting off his nose to spite
his face is a good joke for a worker,
compared with voting for a policy which
will close the factories and force tho
employees into idleness merely for the
sake of hurting the factory owners.
There are not many spiteful working
men in this country, but even il there
We're they would be very foolish to
throw themselves out of employment in

Does Your salary Go Too Farq

The Detroit Tribune, a free silver pa
per, says: at is true that under an era
of higher prices fixed salaries will not
go so far as now, but now they go toe
far, and their purchasing power ought
to be reduced. These salaries were
mostly established before the hard times
set in and now represent vastly more
than was intended when the salaries
were created"
Don't you suppose wages will be af-
fected just like salaries? Do you believe
"their purchasing power ought to be
reduced?p

A Plea for a Confederate Home.

There is a striking contrast between the
condition of the disabled veterans, who wore
the blue, and those who wore the gray
The one cared for by the gratitude of great
nation, the other dependent upon the love
of an impoverished people.
Thesupreme nobility of Southern women,
those who sent fathers, brothers, husbands,
aud lovers into battle for truth sake, is yet
watchful of the veteran whose step has be-
come feeble and whose lot has fallen in hard
places.
As the women of the South reared stately
monuments of costly marble in the Ccnfed-
crate Cemetery in Winchester, so the Daugh-
tiers Of the Confederacy of West Virginia,
are striving to build home for the poor
and disabled veterans.
The Daughters of the Confederacy iu

ing great arrangements to effect this result.
About June 3rd, they will organize a
grand rally which will be held on the lawn
of Senator Faulkner's beautiful, and histor-
ic home Boydylle. There will be din
ner during the day, aud Fete Champetre
at night
The lawn will be dotted with tents One
in which a play will be produced, another
will contain museum of Confederate relics,

fortunes Of the anxious Swain. Bands OF
music, and numerous lanterns will beautify
and enlveu the scene
A magnificent supper will be served, and
it is anticipated thatas gathering of beau
ty and chivalry the occasion will be uusur-
passed
Gallant and faithful Jefferson will send
her quota for the sake Of the cause she loved
so well, and Battle Scared Winchester will
come in force with the same devotion which
swelled her heart when her streets resound-
ed with the tramp Of armed men.
There the old generation will meet the
new and the veterans will meet the Sons and
Daughters of the Coufederacy-a younger
people, but a people in whose heart the
pride Of heroic ancestry reigns supreme,
and together all will testify by their pres
ence, and by their contributions their appre-
citation of the noble cause for which the oc-
casion is had

adjoining counties is expected and many
will be there.

LONGING FOR THE OTHER ONE.

Sweet little maid with winsome eyes
That laugh all day through the tangled hair
Gazing with baby looks so wise
Over the arm of the oaken chair,
Dearer than you is none to me,
Dearer than you there can be nome
Since IN your laughing face ] see
Eyes that tell of another one.
Here where the freight softly glows,
Sheltered and safe and snug and warm,
What to you is the wind that blows,
Driving the sleet of the winter storm
Round your head the ruddy light
Glints on the gold from your tresses spun,
But deep is the drifting snow tonight
Over the head of the other one
Hold me close as you eagerly stand
Watching the dying embers shine;
Then shall feel another hand
That nestled once in this hand of mine;
Poor little hand, so cold and chill,
Shut from the light of stars and sun,
Claspng the withered roses still
That hide the face Of the sleeping one.
Laugh. little maid, while laugh you may,
Sorrow comes to us all, l know;
Better, perhaps, for her to stay
Under the drifting robe of snow.
Sing while you may your baby songs,
Sing till your baby days are done;
But Oh the ache of the heart that longs
Night and day for the other one

that the demand Of the free-s:iyer men for

remove from silver dollars the safeguards Of
legislation which surround them, to with
draw the limit and take from them the sup

unlimited coinage Of silver at l6 to ].
"If "a President and Congress were elected
in November committed to the free and un-
limited coinage Of 37ll grains Of silver into
dollars" said Secretary Smith, "manufac'
tories would close, business houses would
fail. bauk. would be raided. the unemployed
would be numbered by millions aud want
and famine would peryade the land" He
added than these interests required the re-
moya Of all doubt about the meaning Of a
dollar The Secretary was frequently
cheered.

Beware
OF the knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: "For six years l have been
sufferer from a scrofulous affection of
the glands Of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, d. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though lam
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your S.S.S. long ago,
l would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $3.50"
This experience is like that OF all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out per1na-
nently. ~

Among the gifts Of Secretary Carlisle is
most remarkable memory. The address de-
livered last week by Mr. Carlisle in Chicago
comprised $500 words it embraced null
titude of figures, including statistics of the
most formidable character, relating to wages,
the price of commodities, fluctuations of cur
rency and other matters. Yet the Secretary
delivered his speech without manuscript aud
with only two references to his notes, and
these but for an instant The Chicago pa
pers describe the speakers utteTances as of
perfectly spontaneous character, unmarked
by the least hesitation, and rolled out as if
each thought had occurred to his mind for
the first time. Yet every word Of the ad-
dress was prepared iu advance, and the re-
porters in the audi ence held printed copies,
which they scanned as the speaker went on.
There was not the deviation OF a word, SAYS
one of these observers, who much marveed;
not a syllable or comma was altered in the
delivery. Such A memory nowadays is, in
deed. uncommon, and shows most extra
ordinary power of concentration.-BaHl-
