WHAT THE NAILS INDICATE.

1t has long been known to doctors that
the shape and appearance of the finger
nails form important factors in the
diagnoses of disease. Thus, long nails
indicate physical weakness and n ten
dency to consumption. Where the nails
are long and BLUSH they indicate bad cir
culation. The same type of nails but
shorter, denotes tendency to throat affec-
ton, bronchitis and the like Short,
small nails often indicate heart troubles;
where they are short, fiat and sunken,
you may look for nervous disorders. Gin

Seymour, Feb. 26.-Thc special town
meeting will be held Friday afternoon in
the opera house at 2 O'Clock, and all
the taxpayers should be present. The
appropriation for good roads will be
brought up, and it is probable that they
will make an appropriation of $1,000
towards the Improvement of the streets.
It is said to-day that there are some
who object strongly to making another
appropriation, believing that another
year should pass before making anoth-
er demand on the state and county.
The majority, however, are inclined
to think that the amount should be ap-
propriated and application made upon
the state and county so that the work
of macadamizing Bank and Main
streets can be accomplished.

Failures last week 315 and only GIG
for corresponding week of last year.
The property involved amounted to
$l3. 1874 and only $6,3o0, 165 last
year. So we see that the conditions
are rapidly growing worse the longer
the gold standard is continued. 1t is
no excuse to lay it to tariff tinkering
for the present tariff law furnishes
more revenue than did the Mckinley
tariff and under it there are more ex-
ports and less imports. 1t is no use
to say a higher tariff will start up
factories and stimulate conmere be-
cause We have already a surfeit of
products of all kind and those who
need them must be be enabled to
consume them before there can be a
market for more. 1t is more money
in circulation that Is needed and the
only way to get it is to elect an adj
ministration and congress that will
initiate the cure cy then when those
who are boarding money see that
money is growing cheaper and all
other things dearer they will go to

Sample Gold Argumen Is.


A prominent citizen of Burbank,
Neb., boils down bushel of gold
standard campaign literature into
the following arguments:
First-We want gold monometal-
lism so we can buy of England.
Seoond-We want a high protective
tariff so we can't buy from England.
Third-It is reputation to have
free coinage of silver es established.
Fourth-It was patriotism to de-
stroy one-half the money metal of
the nation and contract the currency
Fifth-Free coinage of silver would
raise the value of mine owners prop
erty one-half.
Sixth-With free coinage a dollar
would be worth only SO cents and the
laborer would be robbed of all his
wages.
Seventh-The free coinage of silver
means Reputation, anarchy, social
ism and crime.
Eighth-We want free silver coin
age as soon as England will give her
codsdnt and assistance.
Ninth-The present dull times are
caused by unwise democratic legis-
lation.
Tenth-Times were never better
than they are right now. There is
plenty of money in the banks, wages
are high and a laboring mans dollar
is as good as every other dollar.
Eleventh-Silver has never been
demonetizsd.
Twelfth-We have been on gold
basis for twenty years.
Thirteenth-More money in circu-
lation would not help the laboring
man. The mine owners are not going
to divide with him. when they coin
their silver.
Fourteenth-What we want is a
strong financial policy so VIC can
borrow money of England and En-
gland will be encouraged to invest in
this country.
Fifteenth-Free trade il ruinous to
any country unless you call it reci-
procity.
Sixteenth-It is not anarchy to is
sue bonds contrary to law, Or to
maintain a policy not authorized by
law when there is plenty of money in
the treasury for the transaction of
the business of the government.
Seventeenth-We want every labor
ing man to vote for the gold standard
so that the government of Wall street,
for Wall street and by Wall street
may not perish upon American soil.

Senator Sherman has tely written
q letter, a very weak one, trying to
justify the crime of 1878. Among the
statements he makes one that while
true technically, conveys a wholly
false notion. Any one reading it in
view OF present thought, would be led
to think he was saying that silver
had actually gone out of use as mon
ey; and Mr.. Sherman Knew it would
be so believed; when the facts are
that in 1871 and in 1872, in both years
there were more silver dollars coined
than in any other three years. 1t
was out of general circulation, it is
true, but SO was gold, and Mr.. Sher-
man could have as truthfully said:
sgold and silver had long since
ceased to circulate as money!" for
neither had so circulated since 1862.
1t is shame that public men like
John Sherman should use deception
of this sort at time when honest
men are trying to find out facts to
act upon to know how they should
cast their votes in this important
matter.
