Foley's Honey and Tar does not
claim to perform miracles. 1t does not
claim to cure all cases OF consumption
or asthma. But it does claim to give
comfort and relief in advanced stages
Of these diseases and to usually cure
early stages. 1t is certainly worth
trying by those afflicted or threatened
with these dread diseases. W. H.

"Now, John Henry, if ever you throw your

How Ostrlches Run.

Considerable misconception prevails

held that when running 1t spreads out
its wings, and aided by them skins
lightly over the ground. This is not
correct. When bird really settles it.

than usual and n little forward, with a
deep loop in the neck. The neck VI
brates sinuously, but the head remains
steady. thus enabling the bird, even n.
top speed to look around with unshak-
en- glance in any direction. The wings
lie along the sides about on a lCve;
with or little higher than the back.
and are held loosely. just free OF the
plunging thigh" There Is no attempt
to hold them extended or to derive any
assistance from them as organs OF
flight. When an ostrich. after a hard
run, Is very tired Its wings sometimes
droop: this Is due to exhaustion. They
are never, by running bird exerting
itself to the utmost, held out away
from the sides to tighten It's weight or
increase its pace. But the wings appear
to be of great service in turning. en-
abling the bird to double abruptly even
when going at top speed.-From the

Stanley brought the Christian world
the request Of the king that they

Scilinr Out Their Herds.

Cheyenne. Wyo.. Sept. 10.--Thc

fact that the small ranchmen of CEN
trail Wyoming are selling OH their ell
tire herds of cattle the temptation of
the prcscn high prices being too much
for them. 1t warns the rnnchmcn
against disposing of their herds. as the
possibilities are that prices of cattle
will be much higher next year than
this. The southern cattle fields have
been depleted and Montana and Wy
oming will be the great sources from
which the cattle supply Of next ycnr
will be expected. with their herds
gone the small ranchncn will be no po-
sition to share in the improvement Of
the stock industry.

Pretty names and bit OF silver have

intended for the lips covered with a

ysis reveals 1t to be a base imitation

mission to make an investigation
and report recommendations for
the Improvement of our currency
system.
1t has been known all along
that the president wanted author
lty to appoint such a commission
and the policy of the house to do
nothing pending action on the
tariff bill has been regarded by
some as antagonistic to the pres
ident's wishes in the matter. 1t
is intended that this commission
shall be appointed before the
present session closes in order
that it may make its investigation
during the recess and make its re-
port in December during the re-
gular session.
The president, before his inau-
guration, decided on three things
looking toward the settlement of
the financial question, first the
special instruction to our foreign
representatives to use every effort
to impress Europe with the neces-
sity for international bimetallism I;
second to secure the appointment
of a commission to secure an in
ternational bimetallic conference;
and third to secure n committee
to investigate and recommend
needed reforms in our financial
system. The silver forces in con
gress will undoubtedly cause
trouble for this plan for com
mission and will demand the right
to appoint the minority members.
If the silver senators demand
more privileges than the republi-
cans deem wise to grant, then The
Echo predicts the whole scheme
will fall through as the silver men
can control this sort Of legislation
in the senate.

BAILEY DECL ARES BRYAN
FOR 1900.

An event of considerable i'm
portance is the announcement by
Representative Joseph Bailey that
he is for the denomination Of Sir.
Bryan i'm 1900. Mr.. Bailey ia the
democratic leader in the house
and is spoken Of as a probable RI
val Of Mr.. Bryan for the next
presidential election on the silver
democratic ticket. Mr.. Bailey
has recently returnedt to the capi-
tol from stumping tour in close
communication with the demo-
cratic leaders all over the country.
In his opinion the democratic
party desires the readoption Of
the Chicago platform without any
change in it whatever. 1t will
make their position stronger and
show that the Chicago platform
embodies true democratic doc
.trine if the party again gods before
the people unchanged. Mr. Bai-
ley declares that Mr.. Bryanis iden-
titled with the Chicago platform
and with the issues of 1896 indis-
soluably, and says his renomina-
tion in 1900 is q foregone conelu-
sion. 81 differ from Mr. Bryan,
says Mr.. Bailey, in many ways of
his earlier opinions and conyic-
tions, but since his nomination he
