Look Out
For Cancer 5!

Few people are born entirely free from
blood faint. This is often very slight or
remote, and sometimes may not develop
at all in one generation, but breaks out
in a serious disease later.
Cancer, the most dreadful of all dis
eases, is often the result of some blood
faint inherited from generations back.
1t often appears as mere mole or in
significant pimple, which later develops
into an alarming condition. No one
knows but that he may be subject to an
inherited iinpurity in the blood, nor can
he tell whether or not this may some
day crop out in the form of destructive
cancer. 1t is, therefore, important that
any little sore or scratch, which does
not readily heal, be given prompt atten-
ton, or serious condition may result.
Mr.. Robert Smedley, of Ocala, Fla,
was the victim of a malignant cancer,
which first appeared in the manner
above described. He writes:

Under circumstances as they now
exist, with silver GemOnetized by
the great commercial countries of
the globe, with the frightful chasm
that seperate the commercial value
of the metals constantly widening,
and in the light Of our own recent
national eletion, l cannot bring my
own mind to believe that the free
coinage of silver at the ratio of l6 to
l with gold is within the reach of
its friends, nor can help the fear
that it would not be desirable even
if attainable.
have never been able to say and
cannot now say that | know free
coinage at such a ratio under exist
ing conditions, without safeguards
of any kind to maintain the party
of the metals, would not drive gold
out of circulation and leave us
practically, at least, upon a silver
basis.

Negro Dialect Stories.

The old Virginia darkey who has
been, from the time he was ten
years of age, the dining-room SER
want of one of our aristocratic fam
lilies, is noted for his Chesterfeldian
manners. And as a waiter, cleaner,
and everything else for which a
house servant is wanted, he is not
equalled by his latter-day breth-
rem, whose main occupation, if he
has been to school and can read u
little, is that of a hotel waiter or
Pullman car porter.
Having some company to tea one
night remembered that two of my
friends were fond of limberger
cheese. l bought pound package
and took it home with me. On
arrival, old Uncle Isaac met me as
usual with his accustomed salutation
of "Good evenin', boss" | said to
him, ''Uncle Isaac, you will find
among other things in that box, a
package of cheese, and want it on
the table tonight" ''All right boss,
I'll have it." "Don't you forget
it," said 1. Or norr sub, I aim
gwin' fegit it! I'll have it sho'."
Now, Isaac had seen every kind of
cheese in his life, but this was his
first experience with the limberger.
When 1 took my company into
the dining-room, the old fellow was
standing near the table, with long
white apron on, and waiter under
his arm, ready to jump if anyone
looked toward him. Not seeing the
cheese, l said to him quietly, Cum
Gle Isaac, where's the cheese?"
With look of great disappoint-
ment, he turned to my wife as if to
say, "please marin, come to my
but my wife only smiled.
[ repeated my question then with
more emphasis "Uncle Isaac,
the cheese?" He came shut
ling up to me sideways, and being
90 polite to let the guests hear
What he had to say, whispered
oftly in my ear, "Boss, it was mos
