II he wants to be free. we'll man again.
If dyspepsia and biliousness or constipa-
tion is the way he got into disease, he has
got to overcome just those troubles before
he can get out
The majority of diseases begin with some
trouble of the digcs::ve organs or of the
liver, which preve. = T." supply of proper
nourishment to the system The best
remedy for these troubles is Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery, because it gives
the digestive and blood making organs
power to assimilate food and transform it
Into pure, nourishing blood, vitalized with
an abundance of red corpuscles.
1t acts directly upon the liver and gives
It capacity to filter ali bilious impurities
out of the circulation. 1t builds up solid,
muscular flesh and healthy nerve-force.
In obstinate constipation the "Discov.
cry" should be used in conjunction with
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets, the most nat
ural and thoroughly scientific laxative ever
devised. The Pellets " regulate and in.
vigorate the stomach, liver and bowels.
One is a gentle laxative two act as a mild
cathartic.

When Bryan talked of the first six
months Of the Mckinley administra-
ton being the most disastrous in the
history of the country, he referred ex-
clusively to its effect on the Democratic
party.
Those poor silver ENJOYS who were
to startle the country with explanations
of how the money power" had secured
control Of the japanese financiers have
not been heard from even in slow
tones"
Did Mr.. Bryan really make that state
ment that he failed to see any signs of
prosperity in Ohio or was this simply
the charge of some jealous enemy who
wanted to create the impression that
Bryan's eyesight was failing?
Mr.. Bryan, in his recent speech-mak-
ing visit to Ohio, ''came to bury Han
ma" He made speeches In twelve coun-
ties in the State. Those twelve coun-
ties gave 997 greater Republican ma
jority than they did in 1896.
The suppression of negro votes in
some sections of Kentucky indicates
that the Democrats of that State are
not so dead certain of their old-time
large legitimate majorities, and that
they consider it necessary to turn ev-
cry stone. Kentucky is now one Of the
doubtful States.

HOW 60 Go TO- slcep.

AT the recent meeting In Montreal OF
the British Medical Association, in the
section of therapeutics, DIR. j. b. Learn
ed, OF Northampton, Mass. gave his ex-
perience with the many methods OF in
wiling sleep without taking drugs. He
sets the brain TO work at once on retir-
ing--it Is to direct the respiratory proc
ess. 1t is to count respirations to see
that they are fewer In number, regu-
lar, deep and somewhat protracted. In
addition, certain groups of muscles are
employed I'm routine order in silent con-
traction. BY constant change other
groups are brought into use. He has
completed a systematized routine Of
contraction and relaxations. A slight
elevation of the head from the pillow
for a definite time by count of respira-
tons Is one Of the many changes Of
position. All this without any commo-
ton, and need not be recognized by u
sleeping companion. Brain and muscle
and all parts Of the body soon come
into the normal state that precedes and
invites sleep. A sense of fatigue soon
overtakes one while thus employed,
and before he is aware the brain has
forgotten its duty to regulate the
breathing process, the muscles have
ceased to expand to the call made upon
them in the beginning, and sleep is In
control of all the forces and all the or
gans.-New York Journal.

No Prosperity for Him.

The long and short of this business is
that we are no nearer prosperity than we
were two years ago. The only benefits
which have come to our people since the
election OF Mckinley were the result Of
the disasters TO wheat crops in foreign
lands by what the law calls visitation
of God"
Thus the Cincinnati Enquirer, whose
anxiety just now is centered upon the
political complexion of the new Ohio
Legislature. Everything depends upon
that. There can be no real, simon-purr,
copper-bottomed, Atwood. yard wide,
sure enough prosperity visible in The
Enquirer office until John Mclean suc-
ceeds in breaking into the United
States Senate. Pending that consum-
nation, civilization is failure and
progress is played out!

went into effect. At present, however,
the manufacturers are not satisfied
with the outlook. Exports to this coun-
try are not only falling off, but bust
ness in general is dull. There have not
been as many American visitors as usu-
al, and those who have been in Switzer-
land have made comparatively small
and insignificant purchases. The small
err the purchases abroad the better for
our own country. 1t will not take long
for American tourists abroad to get
into the habit of keeping their money
in their pockets and making their pur-
chases at home. AS a rule they will get
better goods, and have the additional
satisfaction of knowing that they are
spending their money where it will do
the most good.

AN AMBITIOIJS GIRL.



This paper recently received informa-
ton that the ten-year-old daughter Of Mr..
Nj. Rybolt, Of Hartsville, Ind, had been
cured OF severe illness. The case seem
ed more than an ordinary one, and conse-
quently d special representative was sent
to investigate.
The Ryboits are well-to-do farmers liv-
ing about two miles southwest of Harris
vile. When the reporter called Mr.. and
Mrs. Rybolt and their daughter. in ques-
ton, Louise, were Mt home, also the other
three children. Louise Is the Oldest. She
had been going to school for four years.
and was formerly in very good health, but
Tor the past year or more she has been Ill.
A year ago the present winter 1t was
noticed that she was breaking down in
health. For time the cause could not
be ascertained, but 1t was finally decided
that 1t was from over-study. 1t has al
ways been the ambition of Louise to edu-
cate herself as soon as possible, for she
was anxious to graduate from the COM
mon branches early, and to enter college
OF music, which her parents promised she
could do as soon as she should finish the
common branches.
How many children by diligent study
to achieve their ambitions are injuring
their health. 1t was so in this case. The
child studied hard all day and often far
into the night, and hGsl won the respect
and admiration of her teacher and of all
the school by her aptness, and rapid
learning
For some time Louise experienced an
indisposition which she would not make
known to her parents, for fear they would
have her remain from school. Her head
ache soon became uncomfortable, and was
noticed by her teacher. She had by this
time grown pale and weak.
One day she became suddenly sick at
school, and was taken home.
For several weeks she suffered from a
her. A neighbor urged them TO try DIR.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
which they finally did with splendid re-
s@ts. Louise began getting better at
once, and by the time she had consumed
ten boxes of the pills she was cured.
what you have written is true" said
Mrs. Uybolt. II don't ts,ink Louise would
have recovered had it not been for Dr.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People. She
is in perfect health to-day, and able to re-
enter school.
I'VE are using these pills in our family
when we need medicine, and end that

uo. Dec,ined 90 Per Cent.

Silver has declined 20 per cent. in the
last year. How does this affect the
people Of Mexico? Very favorably for
those who have debts to pay, but very
unfavorably for those to whom money
Is due. If a man loaned another 800
in Mexico year ago, all he will receive
now in payment is $50, and there Is no
way by which he can collect the other
$50. He will receive in payment one
hundred Mexican dollars, the same
number that he loaned, but they will be
worth just four-ifths as much as when
he loaned them. This shows the prac-
tical operation OF the silver standard.

not so considered, when Democracy
