THE REAL WORD.

We ourselves are the real word, the life
utterance which speech often falsiles.
There ore fnces that never deceive or mis-
lead us. 4 spiritual nature can but be
frank and honest because its foundation
stones are laid in the truth and it knows that
nothing else holds. 1t is in us as human
beings instnctively to recognize and hate
insinrerty. Nobody is in the end deceived
bv expression that is merely outward and
perfunctory. Our inner life is transparent ;
it cannot conceal itself if it is true life. it
has no need or desire of concealmcnt. -

A FIGHT on THE BANKS.
Illinois Silver Democrats Charge Coercion

The Democratic State Committee OF lili-
nois alleges that al OF the small traders VINO
have borrowed money on short time pay
ments from the banks are being called into
the offices Of the banks presidents and asked
if they are silver or gold men. If they're
