you say, II shallIbe at Georgetown, Quit

for the purpose of discussing the polit-
ical questions involved in the contest. I
respectfully invite you to be present and
participate with me in said discussion"
In reply to same beg to thank you
for the courtesy, and have to say: You
and both profess to favor. the imme-
diete return to the constitutional st nd
ard of gold and silver, by the restoration
by this government indepen lenly of
any foreign power Iof the unrestricted
free coinage of both gold and silver into
standard money af the ratio of sixteen
to one, and upon terms of exact equality
AS they existed prior to 1898; the sill
yer coin to be full legal tender equally
with gold for all debts and dues, public
and private. This is the issue upon
which this campaign is to be fought
There is then nothing of principle for us
to discuss, and no good can come to
the cause of silver, or to 1.-THE democratic
party, from joint debate between US.
L therefore most respectfully decline to
participate in the discussion to which
you invite me. l remain,

Beware
OF the knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: For six years 1 have been a
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 re-
moval of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against ali patent medicines, / be-
gan its use. Before l had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your S.S.S. long ago,
would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $I5o."
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
fruit1ess 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.
