YORK TIMES

The Times is newspaper for intel
ligent meu and women who want to
read all the news Of the world every
day. The paper has distinguished
merits OF its own. 1t is neither SEN
sational nor dull. 1t is not sour
tempered. 1t is not frivolous or vision
AIRY. 1t sees plenty OF good in the world
and tells about it. 1t tells OF the bad
when it must, but not unwholesomely.
1t prints with fulness the record Of
human endeavor in mary fields outside
Of business, politics and warm liter
allure, religion, science, art, sports and
household matters. No paper in the
country prints so many book reviews
and so much book news No paper
has 50 complete financial page-a
daily manual for investors and officers
of financial institutions. Its market
reports-wool, cotton, breadstuffs, farm
products. etc. are the best in the country.
The Democracy Of The Times is Of
the old fashioned sort-as old as Thomas
Jefferson; majority rule, no bossism, no
machine tyranny, the divorce Of politics
from private money making, a sound
currency, industrial emancipation. and
every day honesty. To promote the adj
vance Of the Democratic party along
these lines II labors with heart and
conscience and all its might.

and flames to leap up to heaven, and liv-
ing men to change into calcined corpses;
all this it can do and much more. But
it cannot give back to the earth or to
the soul the sweet mild freshness of the
morning.
In all of this, despite its pessimism,
there is food for wholesome thought.
For it is true. And more than that
for all its horrors, it tells but a half
truth. 1t tells Of loss of beauty and
loss Of independence,-but it only hints
of the awfulness Of physical and
moral degeneration. 1t does not
tell how the fostering evils
which were formerly but the
trade marks of nobility"-Heaven save
the mark.-are today the common traits
of the common people. 1t does not more
than mention the spreadand awfulgrowth
of scrofula-and of that which Is worse
and more shameful by far than scrofula.
The horrors Of madness. paresis, steadily
growing, are but limited at. The awful
sickening decline of manly strength
and vigor and of womanly fitness,-the
"Mene- Tekel, Upharsin" scrawled on
the walls ofhumanity's Temple of Hope,
of this the article tells but little.
And of moral degeneration,-worse
even than physical, because its cause,
more is limited than said. Yet a sentence
tells it all. The purity which was once
the portion Of young manhood is lost
and gone. All the imps of hell and
infamy are sapping the vigor and de-
stoying the manhood Of the FUTURE

THROUGH COLORED GLASSES

~30<&0~S0
In the January Nineteenth Century
there appears by far the strongest maya
zine article of the month,-"The Ugli-
ness of Modern Life" by Ouida. The
article is marked by pessimisn and even
hopelessness,-but it is the pessimism
aud hopelessness of stern reality. 1t
draws vivid contrast between the life of
man today, and the life of man in other
ages. 1t shows him today as a mere
peg in an immense machine.-the ma
chine Of commercialism, Of money-get-
ting. 1t tells how men, thousands and
millions Of them live and eat and sleep
and die-and nothing more. How they
live pent up in great ugly tenement
houses, with no sight of the clear sky
and green fields Of smiling nature. 1t
tells how all aestheticism, all beauty,
all soul is being bartered for a mess Of
pottage,-for pounds and shillings and
dollars and cents. 1t recites the hope
lessness, the slavery of the workmans
life, and tells Of the Tightening bands
which year by year bind him closer to
life Of subjugation.
All this it contrasts with the beauty
and color and animation.-with the
naturalness, of medieval and ancient
life. 1t tells of wayside shrines and
bands Of pilgrims. Of spinning wheels
and oaken chests, of the cobbler sit
ting placidly in his doorway, independ-
ent and free, in the glad sunlight COM
muning with nature and loving the
world,-all gone, and forgotten. Gone,
and replaced by the ugliness and hope
lessness Of today.
Iquote from the closing paragraphs:
us the end worth the means?
us modern trade in truth such a god
head descended on earth that all the
loneliness OF earth and air, of sky and
water, should be sacrificed to it's de-
mands?
I'VE hear ad nauseam OF the gains OF
modern life, of what is called civiliza-
ton; does no one count its costs?
1t might be we'll to do so.
1t might act as corrective to the inane
self worship which is at once the most
ill-founded and the most irritating fea-
ture OF the age. Perhaps other ages
have in turn adored themselves in like
manner, but there is not in history any
record Of it. Its prophets, heroes, sages,
each age has either admired or exc
Grated; but GO not think any age has
60 admired itself as the present age,
which has its prototype in William Of
Germany standing between two sand
banks, and thinking himself greater
than Alexander because his engineers
have succeeded in cutting for him a
ditch longer than usual.
Every invention Of what is called
science takes the human race further
and further from nature, nearer and
nearer to an artificial, unnatural and
dependent state,
"One seems to hear the laugh of
Goethe's Mephistopheles behind the
hiss of steam, and in the tinkle of the
electric bell there turks the chuckle of
glee with which he sees the human
fools take as boon and triumph the
fatal gifts he has given.

the whole world and lose his own soul?
What shall it profit the world to put

The Honest Shakers and Their
Cure for Dyspepsia.

The shoplxeeper who cheats us by
living with regard to the quality OF ms
goods. and the grocer and the butcher
who gives us short weights, IS thlet'
However. their lSnavery touches noth-
ing but our pocl1et-hook There is an
other widespread form Of misrepresen-
tation of a far more villainous and dan
gerous character.
We refer to the false statements and
worthless guarantees that frequently
accompany medicines, To guarantee
n medicine to cure is to brand 1t as
uuack. If we can guarantee to cure
disease. then we can guarantee ever
lasting life, for in O large majority OF
cases people die of disease, the proper
fions of violent or accidental deaths
being very small.
The Shakers have always been
known as most upright and honora-
BILE people, and their success in the
manufacture of medicines has also
been well known. 1t is, therefore, not
surprising to find them pursuing a
very original and novel plan for the
introduction of their remedy for dys-
pepsia.
These God-fearing people, whose
mObUO mas always pcSuS AIy diA ohAh6S
and hold fast that which is good" have
put upon the market ten cent sample
bottles of their product, or sufficient
to give it trial.
The Shaker Digestive Cordial is so
prompt in its action, that for the sum
of ten cents, person can usually de-
termine as to whether it meets the re-
quirements of his case. There are forms
of dyspepsia which it won't help, but
these are very rare. In most cases the
first dose relieves all distress, and an
increase of appetite at once follows.
All druggists have it, and the next
time you are troubled with indigestion,
send out and try this popular and sue
cessful product. 1t represents nearly
hundred years of patient investiga-
tion and study.
