Years ago, DR.. r. V. Pierce, now
chief consulting physician to the In
valid's Hotel and Surgical Institute of
Buffalo, N. Y, recognizing the fact
that consumption was essentially germ
disease. and that remedy which
would drive the germs and their poi
sons from the blood would cure con-
sumption, at last found a medicine that
cured 9S per cent. of all cases, if taken
in the earlier stages of the disease.
The tissue of the lungs being irritated
by the germs and poisons OF the blood
circulating through them, the germs
find lodgment there, and the lungs be-
yin to fail. Soon the general health
begins to fail, and the person feels
nguid, weak. drowsy and confused.
his is the time to take Dr.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery; it drives
the germs and poisons from the blood,
and has soothing effect upon the dry
cough. In cases of bronchitis the
discovery is invaluable. Golden
Medical Discovery" increas IS the
amount and quality of the blood. thus
in .igora'ing and terrifying the system
against disease AID builds up whole
some flesh and strength after wasting
diseases as fevers, pneumonia, grip and
other facilitating affections.

THE proverbial crafty evarication
of the Greek must be taken into con-
sideration in connection with King
Georges declaration that Greece I'M
derstands she must be victorious or
disappear" King George seeks, by
this declaration, to deceive the powers
of Europe, just as he seeks to deceive
them by his foreign minister's declara-
ton that the Turks began their de-
fensive fighting on Grecian territory
or neutral ground. King George over
looks or ignores the fact that he had
already seized the Turkish island of
Crete and had permitted ii not encour
aged his "irregular" brigands to in
wade other Turkish territory before
the Turks fired gun.

HENRY WATTERSON appears to be
uuduly and unnecessarily alarmed over
the alleged prospect of Grover Cleve-
land becoming president again by cleo
tion in 1900, and of thereafter holding
the office during the term of his natur-
al life. Grover Cleveland and General
Coxey stand about an equal show to be
elected president in 1900, or any other
year in the future.

IT WILL STAND PAT.
THE CITY BOARD OF PUBLIC
WORKS
Will Make No Further Rec0mmc nd
alton 10 the City
Council.

| At the council meeting Monday night
the board OF public works submitted 8
report recommending the adoption of the
BID OF w. T.. Humphrev.l.e TO pave Main
street. from McGowcn avenue to the city
limits, with gravel. his being, according
to the judgment OF the board, the cheap
est and best bid
motion made by Alderman Matthews
prevailed, in effect that the matter be
referred back TO the board with the re-
quest THAT they recommend to the council
which was the cheapest bid submitted for
q permanent pavement, the council not re-
gard-ng grave as being permanent.
For the purpose OF receiving this
amended report the council will hold an
adjourned meeting at o'clock this at
teriicon. but such u report as contem.
plated by Alderman Matthew'S motion
Will not be forthcoming.
In other words, the board of public
works VIII stand pat on their original re.
port recommending the acceptance OF the
gravel bid.
The board met yesterday and Will NEE,
again this morning. At yesterdays meet
ing Dhey read carefully the section OF the
charter from winch they receive their au-
thority.
They argued that the right to recon-
bractd as one of the elements OF being
the best bid" the character OF material
to be used.
AS to the permanency of gravel or
pared with brick 1t was a question sim
ply OF the period of durability and not of
permanently, as neither brick nor gravel
could be regarded as a permanent pave.
mcnt. and as the period OF durability was
an clement in the calculation. so was tho
cost of construction.
IL the council intended throwing out
gravel In the future. simply becausa they
did not regard 1t as permanent they
should cease TO advertise for It.
Moved by these considerations with tho
locality of the proposed pavement. having
also entered into the conclusion that
prompted their original report, the hoard
VIII decline to amend or change tho re-
port.
