The Widows and the Pensions.

There are great many old soldiers,
some in soldiers homes and many
outside Of them, who are the rCcipi.
ents of pensions, and young women,
In order to become pensioners, go and
take advantage of these CID fellows
and marry them. They marry them,
in great many cases, merely for the
purpose Of getting the pension. OF
course do not say there are no excep-
tious 70 this, but io say that that is
the inducement in n great many in
stances, and In such case the young
wife is more interested I'm the death of
her husband than in his life, because
when he dies she goes upon the PEN
sion rolls. There are seven survivors
OF the war Of 1872, and more than
$500 widows of the survivors of that
war. or more than 400 widows for each
survivor. There are several widows of
the war of the revolution still on the
dension rolls. If something is not
done os'op this business, in seventy
five years hundr, dis of thousands of
widows of soldiers of the war of the
rebellion will lie on our pension roll.
There is no telling how many there
will be, because they Ego on forever"

TIE DREADED CONSUMPTION.

Afflicted, Three Bottles Of His Newly
Discovered Remedies TO Cure consump-

Nothing could be fairer, more phil
anthropic or carry more JOY to the af-
flicted, than the offer of L. \. Slocum,
II. C., of 1873 Pearl street, New York
City.
Confident that he mas discovered an
absolute cure for consumption and all
pulmonary complains, and to make its
great merits known, he will send, free,
three bottles Of medicine, to any
reader of the Banner who is suiferin z
from chest, bronchial, throat and lung
troubles or consumption.
Already this new scientific course
of medicine" has permanently cured
thousands OF apparently hopeless
cases.
TIE doctor considers it his religious
duty--a duty which he owes to hui
manity-to donate his infallible cure.
Offered freely, is enough to COM
mend it, and more so is the perfect
confidence of the great chemist max
ing the proposition.
He has proved the dreaded con-
sumption to be a durable disease be-
youd any doubt.
There will be no mistake in sending
the mistake VIII be in overlooking
the generous invitation. He has on
file in his American and European
laboratories testimonials of experience
from those cured in all parts of the
world.

The Tampa Herald tells of n most
exciting and peiilous mishap to par
ty of hunters that went from that
city last week into the woods in n two
horse wagon. The horses ran away.
Allen Irwin escaped with few
bruises, the drivers arm was broken
and F. A. Sal0monson was dragged a
half mile. The wagon struck log,
threw SalomOnson out, and in falling
one foot was securely caugh. in the
wagon spring. This placed him In an
awful predicament, as the horses still
kept wildly dashing through the
woods, over logs, limbs, stumps and
brush. His foot was held by the
spring and his body hung under the
bed of the wagon, fair mark for
every obstruction the wagon passed
over. For half mile they went on,
the entangled man getting bumbs and
bruises innumerahle and expecting
every moment blow that would put
an end to him. Through II all he
held to the lines and finally stopped
the horses, but no bones were broken
nor are his many wounds serious. Ex-
Mayor Salomonson is well-known in
Ocala and his friends here hope that
he will speedily recover from his Sc
we're bruises.

In Wheeling, w. Va, the private
gas works were bought by the city
many years ago and paid for by the
sale of bonds. All the bonds have
been redeemed out of the profits on
the gas, without levying a dollar on
the people, and the public service is
now yielding yearly income of
about SIS, 600 to the city treasury, be-
sides supplying the people with gas at
20 cents thousand. The books of the
city for 1896 show that besides supply
ing gas to the people at the price
named, the city itself burned $4,000
worth in its own public buildings, for
which it paid nothing. The 81, 1000
profit made on its gas receipts more

But If you have kidney, liver or
bladder trouble you will find Swamp
Root just the remedy you need. PeO-
pie are not apt to get anxious about
their health soon enough. II you are
mot quite well" or half sick' have
you ever thought that your kidneys
may be the cause Of your sickness
IT is easy to tell by setting aside
your urine for twenty-four hours; a
sediment or settling indicates an I'M
healthy condition Of the kidneys.
When urine stains linen il is evidence
of kidney trouble. Too frequent de.
sire to urinate, scanty supply, pain or
dull ache in the back is also convinc
ing proof that the kidneys and blad-
der need doctoring.
There is satisfaction in knowing
that the great remedy DR.. Kilmer's
Swamp Root, fulfils every wish in re-
lieving weak or diseased kidneys and
all forms of bladder and urinary
troubles. Not only does Swamp Root
give new life and activity to the kid

treating the kidneys it acts as tonic

At first glance it may seem as if it
were as hopeless to bring about such a
condition as to restrict the accumula-
ton of fortunes by legislative enact
ments. But let us see: There are
three principal ways in which men
legally but unfairly accumulate for
tunes, either small or great. One Is
in getting control of natural oppOr-
tunities and making men pay for the
privilege of working. Second, in get
ting control of natural monopolies
aid making people pay unfair prices
for the use of public necessities like
railroads, telegraphs, telephones, street
ears, etc. Third, in getting control of
the currency and thus depreciating
values to the advantage of the creditor
class and the loss of the debtors. |
might add as fourth, protective
tariff, which shuts out foreign compel
tition and raises prices for the benefit
of the producer at the expense of the
consumer. | can think of no other
methods of legalized robbery that are
not correlated to these four in some
way. 1t is not at all difficult to de-
stroy all of them.
Indigestion is often taken for con-
sumption. The word consumption
means wasting away, and dyspep.ics
often waste away as badly as con-
sumptives. The reason people waste
away is because either they don't get
enough to eat, or they don't digest
what they do eat. If the latter is
your trouble, take Shaker Digestive
Cordial. This will help you to digest
your food and stop your loss Of flesh.
Shaker Digestive Cordial is made
from herbs, barks and the juices of
fruit, by the well known Shakers of
Mount Lebanon. 1t possesses great
great stonic and digestive powers.
Shaker Digestive Cordial has cured
many supposed consumptives (who
were really dyspeptics), by simply
helping their stOmachs to digest their
food, thus giving them nourishment
and new strength.
