EVERYTHING GOES WRONG

In the bodily mechanism when the
liver gets out Of order. Constipation,
dyspepsia, contamination OF the blood,
imperfect assimilation. are certain TO
ensue. But 81 IS easy to prevent
these consequences. and remove their
cause, by course Of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters, which stimulates the
hillary organ and regulates its action.
The direct result is a disappearance
OF the pains beneath the ribs and
through the shoulder blade. the nau-
sea, headache, yellowness OF the skin.
furred look of the tongue. and sour
odor OF the breath. which characterize
liver complaint. Sound digestion and
a regular habit Of body are blessings
also secured by the use Of this cele-
brated restorative Of health. which
imparts a degree OF vigor to the body
which is its best guarantee Of safety
from malarial epidemics. Nerve weak
ness and over-tension are relieved by
it. and it improves both appetite and
sleep.

managed Ey the selectmen of Boston
and by them loaned to young married
artisans. to give them a start in the
gorld. These loans were to bear 5
per cent interest, and at the end Of
one hundred years the sum, with in
terest was to be applied 20 some pub
lie work of the city. The one hundred
years have passed and the city Of
Boston now finds itself in possesson
of 100000, the outgrowth of Frank
Inns generosity According to the pro-
visions Of the will a board Of trustees
has just been appointed to take charge
of the fund and apply it to some pub
tic work for the good Of the city. The
good deeds of Franklin still live, and
Boston now has the opportunity to
do a good thing for herself and at
the same time honor the memory of
the printer, statesman, scientist and
philosopher.

The democrats are anticipating with
a good deal of ghse some dissenslon
among the republicans over the adop-
ton OF the Dingley bill in the senate.
Ii VIII be recalled that nearly six
hundred amendments were incorporat-
ed in the Wilson bill by the democrats
OF the senate after 1t had gone
through the house with the unanimous
support Of the democratic majority.
There will be no repeat of any such
eontention between the two republi-
can branches of the present congress.
There are no differences of opinion
among republicans on the general
principle Of protection. Every repub-
hcan wants a tariff which win give
adequate protection to every Industry
which requires it. There are differen-
ces Of view as to the particular rate
1t is judicious to adopt in some sched-
ules of the bill, but such differences
have always existed, and always will.
These differences have always. here
tofore, been harmonousy adjusted.
and they will be so adjusted RESPECTING
the Dingley bill. The platform OF the
republican national convention Of 1895
declares I'VE are not pledged to any
particular schedule The question Of
rates is a practica question. to be
governed by the conditions of the time
and of production: the ruling and un-
compromising principle is the protec-
ton and development Of American la
Dor and industry" This is the policy
Of wisdom. The men who formulated
it know that conditions change. and
that duties which would be adequate
or too high at ;One time may be too
low at another time, and wee versa.
The republican party understands
6hese questions, and there will be no
break in the line on the tariff or any
other great question The party will
sndeavor to shape the tariff measure
so that 1t will deal fairly with all in
terests which it touches. The aim is
to make its operations equitable uron
all industries which come under its
influences. As every intelligent person
knows, this is an exceedingly difficult
task; and while the bill as it came
from the house is as nearly perfect
as it could at that time be made. It
rs not unlikely it may require some
finishing touches in the senate. Only |
such notifications will be made in the
bill as the members Of both houses
unanimouly think the public interest
requires, and the bill, when finally
presented to the country. Will be the
most satisfactory ever adopted rer-
haps by any congress.
