in Rectal Diseases is such that none but an expert in
chronic work can determine the seat of disease that
gives rise to SO many complaints. Well-defned
symptoms of Locomoter Ataxia, Heart Disease,
extreme head trouble, Kidaey Complaint, Epilepsy
of long standing. and Female Complaints in an
aggravated form, have all been found to have their
origin in complicated diseases of the rectum. YET
the true cause had not been suspected by former
doctors. 1t is astonishing how much trouble a fssure
or rectal ulcer will produce. Time and money are
wasted in doctoring unless the cause is removed.

Revelation Through Character.
1t is quite impossible to drop the plum
met of thought to the bottom of the
word character; SO deep and so manifold
are the meanings of this highest and
most enduring of all the aspects of
human life. There is, however, one
function of character which is rarely
taken into account, and yet which is, in
some respects, it's divinest office, the
function of revelation. The noble char.
aoters III each generation are the prophets
of God. 1t matters little whether thew
are gifted with speech or not; there is an
e%loquence in their spirit, their aims, and
their lives which no language can COM
pass. Speech is effective and convincing
only while it is audible; character makes
golden tongues out of silence itself

silver in 1878 enormously increased the
demand for gold, enhancing its purohas-

prices of American products have fallen
nearly 30 per cent. Such fall in prices
has destroyed the profits of industry

Major Mckinley continues to preserve

persistent efforts of the money changers
to obtain some kind of a declaration from
him as to his position on the money ques-

Governor Griggs on Tuesday filed with
tbe State Librarian, without his approval,
sixtv.uine bills which passed lighthouses
of the recent Legislature. Among this
LOT is the famous huckleberry Dill, TO
compel the picking of huckleberries
solely by hand. This is eauiva-
lent to vetoing them, and the bills there
fore fail to become laws. The list OF
bills thus vetoed is interesting from the
fact that in his inaugural address Gov
eruor Griggs warned the legislators
against UNNECESSARY legislation" which
needlessly increased the volume OF the
printed laws. During the session he
vetoed by message five bills. and there
were at least a dozen bills recalled by
either the Senate or House after they had
reached his hands and after 1t was learned
that he would veto these measures. The
Governor now has in hand only five bills.
which he may dispose of next Tuesday
either by making them laws or vetoing
them.
