Against the Fiat of the Russian Gov
eminent.
Washington, July 21.-Russia has ex-
%perienced some difficulty in reversing
her standard of talue by simple decree,
as shown in a report to the State De-
partment by United States Consul Hea-
ma at odessa, He says:
1.-THE change inaugurated about two
| years ago in the currency Of Russia
from a silver to what is supposed to be
a gold basis has had a somewhat de-
pressing effect upon the mind Of the
peasant farmers. BY imperial edict it
was made known that a five rouble
gold piece, would until further notice,
be equal to seven roubles and fifty
copecks paper currency, n a check
drawn on any Russian bank for sew
enty-five roubles must be considered
should the holder receive fifty roubles
in gold.
"The masses of Russia are said to be
uneducated and ignorant; nevertheless,
when they are offered a five rouble
gold piece in payment for a debt due
them for seven roubles and fifty CO.
pecks they refused to accept ii and
pointed out that stamped on the gold
piece in plain Russian characters,
were the words five roubles,' and they
Furthermore demanded to know why it
was that they were expected to believe
that twice two and a half made seven
roubles and fifty copecks in money or
anything else.
1.-THE government officials were equal
to the emergency and recoined the same
five rouble gold piece and stamped on
it seven roubles and fifty copecks,
which illustrates the old adage that
there are more ways of killing a cat
than by choking it to death on but

A PEOPLE OF FEW WORDS.

Let your speech be yea, yea and
nay, nay" says the Good Book, for
whosoever is more cometh to evil"
Shakers abide by the spirit Of this rule.
Their words are few, simple, sincere
and direct. They waste no energy in
idle talk; they use it in thinking and
doing. And whatever they do they do
with their might. They are content
with nothing short of the essence and
principle of the things they investigate.
They also take pains and are patient.
And thus the doors of many strange
truths open to them. In this way they
discover what may almost be called
the unity of disease. A venerable Sha-
ker says of it: sit is said that one
mans meat is another mans poison.
That is but half the truth. Any mans
meat is any mans poison, under GER
tain conditions. If the grain never got
further than the hopper we should nevr
have bread; and if bread never got fur
Their than the stomach we should new
err have strength. When the stomach
is torpid, helpless and infamed the
food lies in it and rots. This fermen-
tation produces poisons which may,
and often do, disorder every other or
gan and function Of the body. This Is
indigestion or dyspepsia, with many
symptoms and DISCUSSES. Cure it and
you cure nine-tenths of your COM
plaints.' These words We're uttered
many years ago.. Since then they have
found a remedy, now known as the
Shaker Digestive Cordial. 1t is made
| from medicinal plants cultivated by
them. 1t is a food and digests other
foods. Taken while eating it rests the
| stomach and nourishes the system.
The pain and distresses of dyspepsia
disappear before it. 1t prevents fer
mentation and soon restores full pow
er to the digestion. 1t succeeds in the
worst cases. 1t is worthy the name Of
the people whose name it bears. Any
druggist will sell you a trial bottle for
ten cents.

MORGAN VOTED FOR FRED DOUG,
LASS.

A writer in the THE Illustrated
American, says that when President
Hayes nominated Ferd Douglass for
marshal of the District of Columbia,
Senator Morgan, of Alabama, not only
voted with the Republicans in favor
of confirmation, but made a stirring
speech, which leaked out to the public
in spite of the supposed secrecy of an
executive session. After remarking
that he was not troubled about the COL
or of the candidates skin, he added:
/" / was a candidate on th2 Democratic
electoral ticket of Alabama. 1 solic-
tied the votes of black men, and OBJ
tanned them to the number of ten
thousand, and now when the name of
the most eminent representative man of
this race is presented for the shrieval-
ty of a district five miles square, shall
L go back to the colored people of Ala
bama, whose votes 1 solicited and re-
ceived, and tell them that 1 refused
to vote for him for 10 reason except
that he is a colored man? No sir; 1
cannot perform such an act"
