Pursued Ky q Demon.

How many suicides, think you, reader,
have been committed by persons driven
distraught and haunted to their doom by
the demon of chronic i'll healthf Count
less. For instance, we know, do we not,
that hypochondriasis is a monomania--a
sort OF minor madness produced by
chronic dyspepsiaP Again, insomnia, or
sleeplessness, often result of the same
cause, eliminates in arrangement of
the reasoning faculties. II is, therefore,
of momentous consequence to prevent
the arrival of disease at it's chronic
phase, when it daily and nightly scourges
the sufferer to dangerously uncertain
goal. No medicine known to science, as
a means of arresting the ma1adies to
which it is adapted, exists equal to Hos
letters Stomach Bitters. Among these
complaints are chronic indigestion and
insomnia, kidney and rheumatic all
ments, constipation and liver trouble.
Appetite is improved by the Bitters, the
blood fertilized, and bodily substance
and vigor increased by it.

their health ?"
A mans health is all easy thing
to lose. A little care and the right
medicine make it easy to regain
lost health. Neglected disease
breeds death. Over work, expos
TIRE, wrong eating, wrong living
generally may engender disease.
Symptoms vary, but by far the
majority of diseases are marked by
a loss of vitality, a wasting Of
flesh. The lungs and the stomach
suffer. Disease germs enter the
system through these two Or
gans.
Recovery means driving out the
germs and building up strong,
healthy tissues. The medicine that
will do it quickest and most thor
oughly is the medicine to take.
That medicine is DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. 1t
searches out disease-germs wher-
ever they exist and exterminates
them. It is a powerful, invigorat-
ing tonic. 1t promotes digestion,
creates appetite, cures biliousness
and all liver, kidney and stomach
disorders, and so all blood dis
eases. All medicine dealers.

PROTECTION FOR WOOL.

The present rate of duty on first
class wool is 10 GEMS per pound, and
upon second class II cents per pound.
We have recommended in rhis bill that
the duty or firSt-class wool Shall be
Increased from 10 cents to II cents a
pound, and that the duty now fixed on
secuni-class woods shall remain as at
present. On third-class wool the pres
Cnt rate of duty is two and one-iralf
cents per pound upon all wool costing
under ~ cents. and 5 cents a pound on
woods costing above II cents.
The committee on Ways and Means
will offer an amendment when this
schedule is reached. providing that on
carpet woods the dividing line shall be
changed from - to 10 cents, and that
the duty on wool under IS cents, com
monty known as carpet wool, shall be
30 per cen ad valorem, and above 10
cents per pound Snail be so per cen ad
valorem. 1t will be noted that we make
IN tirst-class wool an increase of one
cent a pound. and that the existing
rate on second-class wool shall be
maintained, and the proposed ad va
loren rate will raise the duty on car
pet woods of cerGain grades according
10 their value.
If there is any one industry which
appeals with more force than another
for defensive duties it is this, and to
no class of our citizens should this
house more cheerfully lend Legislative
assistance. where it a properly be
done, than to the million farmers who
own sheep in the United States. We
cannot afford as a nation to permit
